ANGL0-MAN1ACS ARE FLAYED Embassy to Coronation and Reception Planned For Visit of Prince Henry Savagely Attacked By Kentuckian. The monotony of a private pension day In the house was enlivened Fri day by a very sensational speech <">» w»..i.r, «' *“*»■**. 1 ° «*• nunelatlon of what he denominated "flunkeylsm” to foreign countries. He took the recent statements emanating from continental cabinets regarding the attitude of Great Britain during the Spanish war as a text for a whole sale attack upon the trend of our re cent diplomacy. In the course of his remarks he severely scored Secretary Hay, and declared that if Lord Paunce foto had S(iUgiu * as was alleged, to circumvent . us during , the war of , 1898, the sooner he was shipped across the seas the better. He also took oc casion to criticise the president for hia reported intention to send his daughter to the coronation of King Ed ward, and to protest against the offi cial reception of Prince Henry. His speech aroused the house to a high pitch of excitement, and elicited from Mr. Boutelle, of Illinois, a spirit ed defense of Secretary Hay, whom he eulogized in highest terms. Several other other members of the republi Sid6 , , took . . , }l 311(1, , and „ , lfi-tPr in tH6 C3.I1 3 afternoon Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, in a twenty-minute speech took Mr. Wheeler to task for his “inopportune protest.” and rehearsed the history of the visit of the prince of Wales to this country in 1860 and his reception by President Buchanan. Until 1896, he said, all Americans had glorified in the splendid isolation of the republic and its determination to hold aloof from foreign entangling alliances. Less than five years ago, he declared, a president "egged on by the pitiable flunky in the state depart ment” had stretched his arms across the seas in adulation to the people of Britain and today the govern ment was hugging to its bosom a na that since the battle of Yorktown systematically and persistently our downfall. He sneered at the “shoulder-strap ped gold lace flunkeys” who were to be dispatched across the Atlantic to bend the knee to and kiss the hand of the English king, whose government, he declared, had attempted to form a coalition of European governments to thwart us while we were seeking to strike the shackles from Cuba. Turning to England's war in South Africa, he denounced her tyranny and the part we had in it in allowing war material to be shipped from our shores. If half that was said of “this man Pauncefote” was true, he declar ed, he ought to be shipped across the water, and “the soooner the better.” Referring to the report that a mem ber of the president’s family was to at tend the coronation, Mr. Wheeler said it was perhaps unDecomlng to allude to it. Nevertheless, he said, he con sidered it “most unfortunate and un precedented and to be lamented by ev ery liberty-loving American.” It was but one more link in the chain. Mr. Wheeler then turned to the prospective visit of Prince Henry. With a gesture of contempt he declar ed that “European maniacs were fall ing over each other” to see the “little Dutchman.” There were thousands of Americans following the plow, he said, who are as honest and as noble as he. Why, he asked, should the American people give heed to this f.unkeylsm of the present administration. We should treat our visitors politely, but why “fall down and 4 .worship them.” The whole house was aroused by Mr. Wheeler’s philippic. Several times the democratic side burst into applause. As he was concluding Mr. Grosven or, of Ohio, asked if Mr. Wheeler had been living at the time of the visit of Lafayette, as the representative of the king of France, whether he would have opposed the reception accorded the Frenchman by Washington. “I should have been proud to receive the Marquis de Lafayette,” replied Mr. Wheeler. “He helped to fight for our liberties.” Thousand Barrels Daily.

Clach Between Posse and Mountain eers More Fatal Than First Reports Indicated. Later advices from Middlesboro, Ky .regarding the bloody battle be tween a sheriff's posse and a gang of mountaineers, states that although the scene of the fight between the sheriff’s posse and Lee Turner’s men Is less than four miles from Middles boro, it Is still impossible to ascertain the exact casualties on the Turner side. It is known that nine men, all told, are dead, but It is not known definitely how many men were in the log cabin, designated in first reports as a saloon, when the officers made the attack and burned it, and It may be that several were killed or wound ed and were consumed in the flames. Those who escaped into the Cumber land mountains are still defiant. The dead are: Deputy Sheriff Charles Cecil Posse man John Doyle, and the following mountaineers: Charles Dye, a ne gro; Marsh Wilson, Perry Watson, Frank Johnson, bartender; Mike Welch, Jim Prado, Joe Hopper. There are reports of wounded Tur ner men being taken care of in the mountains. Fight Caused By Mules. A mouth ago some mules owned by Turner were levied upon because of a debt due Giles Colscm. A week ago Turner, with a bodyguard, went to Virginia, where the mules had been taken, and regained them. While es caping, Moore McCreary, one of Tur ner’s hands, was mortally wounded. Wednesday afternoon Deputy Sheriff Thompson, of Bell county, swore in a posse of flrty citizens of Middlesboro to arrest Turner and the men impli cated in the Virginia raid. Turner heard of this and gathered the mountaineers into his fortress for his defense. When the posse arrived a demand for surrender was refused and firing began at once. Deputy Sheriff Cecil was killed in front of Turner’s gate. John Doyle, a member of the posse, endeavored to secure Cecil’s body and was shot dead. Enraged, by this the posse set fire to the wooden lortress. The flames spread rapidly and a steady stream of bullets was poured into the barricade, resulting in the known deaths of sev en other men. Finally a number of Turner's men fled to the mountains. Trouble is expected, however, before any arrests are made on the charge of murdering Cecil and Doyle. At last accounts Lee Turner, with his brother, “The General,” and a large force, were patrolling the district around the ruins of the quarter house and will allow no one from Middles boro to pass to the Mingo mines or elsewhere. Meantime the officers are reticent as to their next move. “TED OUT OF THE WOODS.” Such Is Joyful Remark of President Regarding His Boy. President Roosevelt left Groton, Mass., for Washington Thursday af ternoon on a special train. As the thain started, the people at the sta tion cheered lustily and the president bowed his thanks from the platform. Just before his depature President Roosevelt, accompanied by Dr. Lam bert, went over to the Powell cottage, the newspaper headquarters, to per sonally meet the reporters and corre spondents who had been in Groton since Sunday. He was in extremely good spirits as he shook each man by the hand and said a hearty word to each. He said: “I want to thank you, boys, for the consideration which you have shown myself and family and for all the courtesies which have been extended to me by the press. There has been such a sudden change in Ted that he has come up all of a sudden, and he Is now- out of the woods.” Continuing,'' the president said: “Alice will come over from Washing ton tomorrow to take my place, to a certain extent, while Mrs. . Roosevelt will remain here perhaps ten days more. Then, when Ted is in condi tion she will takq him to the white house for awhile, but he will return here and continue his studies.” ABDUCTORS ARE ATTACKED. Brigands Fight Brigands For Posses sion of Miss Stcne and Ransom. Referring to the reported engage ments between brigands for the pos session of Miss Stone, the Constantino pie correspondent of the Echo de Par is says: “The captors of Miss Stone and Mad ame Tsilka have been attacked by an other band of brigands, seeking to se cure the prisoners ir. order to get the rensom. “Twenty men on both sides were killed during the fight, but the origi nal captors of the missionary were vic torious.” GREAT IS THE LIBERTADOR.

BURNED GUT OF BARRICADE Desperate Gang of Mountaineers Defy Arrest and Battle to a Finish Near Middlesboro, Kentucky. Six men are dead and as many more are dying as the result of a battle be tween officers from Middlesboro and mountaineers, says a special to the Knoxville (Tenn.) Journal and Tri bune from its Middlesboro, Ky., corre spondent. The battle, which was one of the most desperate affairs of its kind in the history of mountain warfare, oc curred between 4 and 6 o’clock Wed nesday afternoon at Lee Turner’s "Quarter House” saloon, 3 1-2 miles from Middlesboro. Last month Turner had some mules and other goods levied on in payment for a debt, and a few nights ago, it is alleged, he, with others, went to Vir ginia, where the property had been ta ken, secured what was formerly his, and returned to the “Quarter House." Wednesday Deputy Sheriff William Thompson summoned a posse of ten or fifteen men for the purpose of ar resting Turner at his “Quarter FJouse” saloon. The Louisville and Nashville refused to convey the officers to the saloon, and they walked through the mountains. Turner had heard that an attempt would be made to arrest him, and he and his men, fifteen in number, gave the officers a warm reception. The saloon is well suited for an at tack like this. It is built of huge logs and is surrounded by a 30-foot fence, ia which loop holes are cut, so that the inmates can shoot outsiders. Tur ner’s surrender was demanded. His reply was a round of shot. Char ley C. Cecil, of Middlesboro, was rid ing in plain view of the Turner gang. Some one raised a window of the leg dive and shot Cecil, who fell dead. Instantly the man at the window fell back, pierced by a half dozen bullets. Then the firing began in earnest, the officers scattering and hiding be hind trees and rocks, and pouring a fire into the mountain for tress. In the fight John Doyle, a former railroad man, was badly wounded, per haps fatally, and Simon Bean, another ex-railroader, was shot in the hand. The " town men gathered closer Turner’s place, undaunted at shots which whizzed around them. soon as Cecil was killed his com determined to burn Turner’s and in the midst of the battle a fellow applied a torch to an exposed side of the building. A few minutes later the building was flames. Seceral of the mountain came to the window and were shot down. The posse surrounded the barricade, to let none escape. Lee and several of his friends, how in some manner escaped, and is at Mingo mines, eight miles from Several of his men per- CHARLESTON REASSURED.

Oeven Men Met Instant Death In p culiar Wreck—A e Score More Ar e More or Less Injured. Seven men were killed and at least fourteen were seriously injured by a huge bowlder, weighing fifteen tons, crashing into the caboose of a work train on the Choctaw, Oklahoma and Gulf railroad twenty miles west of Little Rock, Ark., at 10 o’clock Fri day morning. The worn train was headed west, the engine pushing six cars and a caboose. As it was passing along the track under the high bluffs bordorlng the river two miles west of little Mamnelle, the crew saw a heavy rock rolling with awful velocity down the steep declivity, haviug been de tached from the hillside by the rains. The train was goixg slowly, but -was almost upon the r4fc when it struck the trade Engineer Nazor reversed his engine at once, but it was so close upon the obstacle that the train struck it with almost full force. The caboose was at the head of the train, and was shivered into splinters. Most of the men who were killed and injured were in the caboose. There was a crew of fifty-four men, white and \olored, and they were go ing to a point further up the road to clear a slight wreck. There were just back of the caboose three cars oi sand, and many of the men were bu ried underneath the heap of sand which was thrown forward by the ter rific impact. Six men are known to have been killed outright. Three were left on the scene and three were removed to Little Rock on the train that was dispatched to the scene as soon as the news could be sent to the city. Fifteen injured were carried to Little Rock and are now at St. Vin cent infirmary. One of the most des perately injured died on the way to the hospital from the depot. It is believed there are otfjers killed or buried under the sand at the scene of the wreck, as there are several missing, and as yet are unaccounted for. A crew of workmen are clearing the wreck and looking for the bodies. FREIGHTS IN COLLISION. Three Men Killed, Others Injured and Cars Demolished.

Control of the second section of its eastbound train was lost soon after the other entered the tunnel and two miles west of Allegrippus it crushed into the rear of the first section. Ten cars, the caboose and two engines were completely wrecked. DUMONT’S BALLOON COLLAPSED. Flying Machine “Lands” Aeronaut In the Sea, But Rescue Was Effected.
