New York, N. Y., Sept. 17.—Showered
with blazing paint, a man, a woman and
a baby in a tenement house in 125th street
have received burns that will likely prove
fatal. They were Isaac Schuster, a paint-
er, Mrs. Lena Marks and her 12-months-
old child.
Schuster accidentally dropped a blazing
match into a bucket of paint. Flames shot
upward from the turpentine and Schuster
started on a run for the stairs with the
bucket A gust of wind blew the flames
into hl© face, causing him to pitch head-
long down the stairs. Mrs. Marks, with
her baby in her arms, was coming up.
The shower of Are fell over them and all
were badly burned^
Judge Parker Acts as Pallbearer at Fu-

Esopus, N. Y., Sept. 17.—Judge Parker

funeral of Dr. Jacob Chambers, which

without action. Investigation of the
charges established the fact that there
was nothing in them.
Mr. Hallam, the clergyman who made
them, also presented a charge against the
late Bishop Thompson, which was dis-
missed.
No one in the church in Mississippi is
taking these charges seriously.
The members of the police force of the
city of Galveston are to have a treat
whenever they appear at the station here-
after. The city has furnished them with
a keg, which will l?e kept on tap at all
hours of the day and night. It is not an
ordinary keg, nay, not one of the com-
mon soft wood, unvarnished kind for the
mighty minions of the law in’this muni-
cipality. It is of the most approved pat-
tern, handsomely polished and bound with
brass. A silver plated faucet admits of
the dropping of the delicious fluid from its
innermost recesses.
It is a water cooler.

Learned That Other Russian War-
ships Besides The Lena Are Cruls-
in Eastern Pacific.
Col. Miller was about 60 years old and
was born in the District of Columbia.
His father was an army engineer and the
son entered West Point on July 1, 1861,
with the intention of being appointed to
the same division of the army.
When, he graduated in June, 1865, it Was
with honors sufficient to warrant his as-
signment to a position as first lieutenant
in the engineer corps. Since then he has
.been assigned to various posts throughout
the country. On Feb. 22, 1869, he was
made a captain, and on April 16, 1883, a
major in the engineer corps. He received
the rank of lieutenant colonel on July 5,
1898.
Previous to going to Washington, six
yeans ago, he was assigned to work in
harbor improvements at New York. For
several years he has-had charge of the
Washington aqueduct and its appur-
tenances. Last January, when Gen. Gil-
lespie was promoted, a number of changes
in the corps followed and Col. Miller was
given charge of the Potomac river im-
provements, in addition to the aqueduct
and other project©. It was in the perform-
ance of duties connected with Potomac
river improvements that he had been as-
signed to make the tour of inspection on
which he died.
Besides the wife and daughter in Wash-
ington city, Col. Miller Is survived by a
son, Lieut, W. S. Miller, stationed with
the reserve torpedo fllotllla at Norfolk,

Army Engineer Stricken With
Heart Disease While on
PREPARED FOR EMERGENCIES.
By Associated Press.
Washington, D. C., Sept. 17.—Instruc-
tions were sent Rear Admiral Goodrich at
San Francisco trday c.iiecting him to de-
tach one ship from his squadron when he
leaves for Magdalen^ bay to hold the
autumn target practice. The vessel de-
tached is to remain in the vicinity of San
Francisco prepared to enforce neutrality
should other Russian or Japanese vessels
put in at the Golden Gate.
The Wyoming also has been ordered to
remain at Bremerton in readiness for the
same duty.
The department has no official informa-
tion that there are any other Russian
cruisers bound for the Pacific coast, but
as there is talk to that effect around San
Francisco it was thought best to be ready
for any emergency.
Chinese soldiers
afternoon, Sept. 15.
Chinese soldiers
armed along the public road bordering' on!
the Italian drill grounds, adjoining the
Italian legation. They ©topped to watch1
the Italians drilling. The Italians ordered
them away and when they refused to go a
fight ensued. The two Chinese were
beaten. One of them was seized and taken
into the Italian legation, while the other
ran to the residence of Gen. Chiang
Kweite, who is. commander in chief o4
the Chinese troops stationed here. A
dozen Italians followed him and fired two
shots in the residence and one Italian soG
dier. entered. The Chinese soldiers aS*
sembled and prepared to fight, but one p£
the officers prevented further disturbs
ance. Representations have been made
by the Chinese authorities to the Italia^
legation, but no answer has yet been re-
ceived. Great indignation is felt and eX«*i
pressed on all sides at this unprovoked!
and unwarranted attack. It is hoped, how*
ever that the incident will be arranged
without any complications.

Mukden, Sept. 16.—The Japanese are re-
ported to be advancing on both flanks
from the east, southeast and southwest.
Outposts are closely engaged 20 miles
southeastward, there being almost inces.-
sant skirmishing. Indications point to an-
other great battle in the vicinity' of^Muk-
defi.
Russian troops occupy all the surround-
ing villages. Refugees are flocking into
the city. The Chinese among them com-
plain of severity on the part of the Jap-
anese.
CAVALRY SCOURING.
By Associated Press.
Tokio, Sept. 17.—3 p. m.—Field Marshal
Oyama reports that Russian cavalry out-
posts, with bases at Panchago, Hanlinpao
and Taisanchiatzu, are daily scouring
southward in the vicinity of Wulitadzu
and Monfulutai, over a 12-mile front, and
to Jimtang, three miles from Tatangshan
Pao. The Russian cavalry is changing Its
clothing to the gray and black winter
uniform.
Kuropatkin feels good. He is safe in
Mukden, until he can get out of it, and
can now retreat to the north Jess hurried-
ly than from Liao Yang. It must be a
comfort to get away from those hu-r.’d
Japs. If Kuropatkin will only retreat to
Galveston, where his armv may recuper-
ate, he will find for his weary army a
restorative, unexcelled. Cool and delic-
ious, pure and healthful are the qualities
of Sea Wall Bond Beer.
Companion ships of the Lena Reported
Cruising in Eastern Pacific.
By Associated Press.
San Francisco, Cali.,
Chronicle today says:
From a reliable source; it has been
learned that the Lena was not alone in
her wanderings in the eastern Pacific
ocean, and It is stated with authority
that somewhere east of a line drawn from
the Hawaiian Islands to Unalaska, in the
Aleuthian chain, at least two, of the czar’s
cruisers are roaming the seas and apt
at any time, singly or together, to seek
the; safe haven found by the Lena last
Sunday.
Whether the Korea is one of these two
vessels known to be near the coast, or
whether she is a third vagrant cruiser,
is not settled.
It is generally believed in naval circles
that the cruisers referred to are convert-
ed auxiliaries, like the Lena, but there is
a possibility that they are regular men-
of-war, which like the Lena was forced
to -escape to the eastward. Their ma-
chinery being still in good shape, they
are keeping the sea as long as possible,
and will probably not make port until
their coal runs out.
It is pointed out that the mere knowl-
edge that these cruisers may be encoun-
tered anywhere between San Francisco
and Honolulu or along the Great Circle
route between Puget Sound and Japan,
will have a marked deterrent effect upon
'those engaged in shipping contraband from
American or British Columbian ports.
At any rate the New York and the Mar-
blehead, which will remain here indefinite-
ly, are on the qui vive and ready at any'
time to greet one or both of the new com-
ers with the promptness that they greeted
the Lena.
Approachment of Japan and China Dis-
cussed—Peace Proposals Denounced.
By Associated Press.
St. Petersburg, Sept. 17.—Important de-
velopments regarding China's attitude
toward belligerents is anticipated here in
well informed quarters.
There are rumors of closer relations be-
tween China and Japan of the possibility
of the Japanese turning over Port Arthur,
when captured, to China, of their restor-
ing Manchuria to the Chinese, etc.
Although these reports are not
firmed they lead to quite a general belief
that some sort of negotiations are going
on behind the scenes of which the outside
work has little cognizance.
The Russ says it believes the Japanese
successes are emboldening the Chinese
government more and more, and they are
promoting such diplomatic steps as China
never dreamed of before.
Since the Japanese occupation of New
Chwang and direct contact between the
Chinese and Japanese they seemed to
have quickly reached an understanding
respecting the occupation of neutral ter-
ritory evoking no protest. The Russ ex-
pects the war to take on a phase as
Chinese neutrality vanishes, which the
powers in the agreement to preserve
China’s neutrality can not ignore.
Moreover the Russ believes the situation
calls for deeds and not words. It con-
cludes: "We • need not be unduly
alarmed, however,. The interference of
China can scarcely be to our disadvan-
tage.”
The Novoe . Vremya bitterly denounces
the suggestion of peace advanced by M.
Meshshersky in the Gazedanin as a means
of defeating the selfish ends of Great
Britain and Germany, both of whom M.
Meshshersky asserts are interested in the
weakening of Russia and Japan.
The Novoe Vremya announces that the
people will not tolerate the self-
humiliation of the, empire before Japan.
The emperor’s congratulatory message
to Kuropatkin Is regarded as effectually
putting an end to the stories of imperial
displeasure with Kuropatkin’s generalship
at the battle of Liao Yang.

Late Reports Indicate Japanese Have Re-
sumed Bombardment of Fortress.
Che Foo, Sept. 17.—4 p. m.—A Japanese
who arrived here today reports that citi-
zens of Dalny on Sept. 15 expected the
general attack upon Port Arthur would
be renewed upon the following morning.
He had reliable information to the ef-
fect that the siege works at Rihlunschane
and Kitwanshan were completed on Sept.
15.
Both Chinese and Japanese, recent ar-
rivals, agree that the bombarding of Port
Arthur became terrific at dawn on Sept.
15 and continued until the forenoon of
Sept. 16. The Japanese fired from Shu-
shyen and Palungshan at Pigeon Bay,
where heavy guns from Japan have been
placed in position lately.
Shells fell with great frequency in the
Chinese new town. Yankiatung, which is
a village at Pigeon Bay and had been oc-
cupied by the Russians, has been evac-
uated by them secretly.
The Japanese have now occupied the
village. Five hundred cavalry, men who
attempted to drive the Japanese from
Palungshan have not returned- ‘and it is
believed in the fortress thay have been
captured.
The ^tate Federation of Labor will con -
vene in this city Monday for a four days’
session. The meetings will be held in the
Screwmen’s hall on Mechanic street be-
tween 20th and 21st. It is expected there,
will be about 200 delegates in attendance,
and these with their families will make
quite a number of strangers in town for
the larger part of next week. It was first
intended to have this convention on the
third Monday in August, but this was post-
poned until the coming Monday on ac-
count of its being thought that the con-
vention might interfere in some way with
the Labor Day program.
While the program of entertainment will
not occupy much of the time of the dele-
gates, as they come here for business and
not for pleasure, the local labor organiza-
tions are determined that they shall' not
go away without seeing about all of the
city of Galveston that there is to be seen,
or as much of it as can be shown properly
in the limited time that will be. at their
disposal for entertaining features.
This evening the credentials committee
will meet and determine any conflicts that
may come up as to who will be seated as
delegates in the convention. At 9 o’clock
Monday morning the convention will be
called to order by President Max
drews of Houston.
The officers of the organization
President, Max Andrews, Houston;
vice president, Paul Steffler, San Antonio;
second vice president, Ed Cunningham,
Bridgeport; third vice president; J. F.
Johnson, Austin; fourth vice president,
J. W. Parks, Dallas; fifth vice president,
M. Oppenheimer, Denison; secretary-treas-
urer, C. W. Woodman, Fort Worth; ser-
geant-at-arms, W. S. Castle, Abilene.
Delegates from Fort Worth, Dallas, San
Antonio, Temple, Orange, Beaumont, Pal-
estine, Cleburne, Sherman, Denison, Lyra,
Thurber, Waco, Port Arthur, Houston and
Bridgeport, besides many smaller towns
and cities, have already signified their
intention of attending the convention held
here, so this promises to fulfill the state-
ment of the local labor leaders that the
Galveston convention will be among the
most important ever held in the state of
Texas.
As The Tribune goes to press Supt.
Drewry states by phone from near where
the break occurred that the “sleeve” has
been put around the fractured pipe and
that the hot lead is being poured in to
make a light joint between the two iron
surfaces. Mr. Drewry believes that the
repairs will have so progressed that the
water can be turned on again before dark.
By Associated Press.
Fekin, Sept. 17.—(Afternoon.)—An ex*
traordinary fracas between Italian and!
occurred on Thursday,.
It appears that two'
were out walking un-
A serious break has occurred in the 30-
inch water main a short distance west of
the stock yards and in consequence the
entire water supply from Alta Loma has
been shut off until repairs that are under
way are completed. There is sufficient
water in the reservoir and standpipe at
the pumping station to supply the needs
of the city for some hours and an addi-
tional supply to refill these two holders
can be let in through the cracked pipe
during the progress of the repair work if
it should become absolutely necessary. It
is expected. that the repairs, which were
commenced this morning, will be com-
pleted by dark tonight, but the work will
not be discontinued until the pipe is fixed
and the full supply of water is again
turned on,
A leak was reported in the big 30-inch
maiit leading into the city from Alta
Loma a short distance west of the ©took
yards yesterday evening by Nick, the
oyster man. It rapidly assumed serious
proportions and this morning as large a
force of men as could be worked to ad-
vantage was- put to work by Com. Lange
and Supt. Drewry, under the direction of
Line Foreman Rube, who at once com-
menced to uncover the pipe and ascertain
the extent of the trouble. It was found
to be a crack of serious proportions, ex-
tending diagonally along and around the
pipe in such a manner as t<5 render the
work of closing it with a “sleeve” a much
more difficult task than the lengthwise
cracks that generally appear. It was
early found necessary to shut off the
pressure from Alta Loma by closing the
big valve this side of the bay bridge and
the back pressure from the standpipe and
pumping station by closing another valve
on th© main in the western part of the
city. Before this was done, however, the
reservoir and standpipe at the pumping
station were filled to supply the city dur-
ing the progress of the repair work,
which, it is believed, will be completed be-
fore this supply is reduced so low as to
require its renewal.
The pressure of 60 to 65 pounds that is
customarily carried at the pumping sta-
tion has of necessity been reduced to
about 25 to 30 pounds, and some of the
largest consumers have been notified to
draw light during the day. No serious re-
sults are hardly possible to arise from
this break unless a big fire should break
out and this it is hoped will not occur dur-
ing the few hours that the pressure is off
at the pumping station. It is remarkably
fortunate that this break should have oc-
curred in the 30-in ch main on the island
and not in the submerged portion that
grosses the bay. Had it occurred there
the seriousness of the situation
hardly have been over estimated.
This is the second break in the big
main in the same locality within a short
time. The first one occurred a few
months ago, but was a longitudinal crack
that was quite easily overcome without
seriously inconveniencing the city’s sup-
ply of water. Every time these accidents
occur they act as another warning to this
community not to tarry longer about put-
ting in a reserve line across the bay. It
is hoped that this last and most serious
break will cause some action on this im-
portant matter that will bring forth the
necessary relief.
works at Galveston and
Texas coast waterways,
dropped dead at Irvington, Va„ Tuesday
afternoon. Heart disease wa© pronounced
to be the cause of death. H® had gone
down the Potomac to the Rappahannock
river on a tour of inspection.
A special dispatch. from Irvington to
the Post stated:
Col. A. M. Miller, engineer corps, U, S,
A./ recently sent her© to make a survey
and arrange for the dredging out of the
mouth of Carter’s creek, dropped dead
while waiting on the wharf for the boat
to come in. Heart disease Is said to have
been the cause of his death. The body
was put aboard the boat and sent to
Whitestone, where an inquest was held,
after which the remains were taken to
Washington.
with representatives from all over the
state Ashby was the successful candidate
for this, the most valued scholarship of-
fered in America. And now he goes to
represent the Lone Star state in England's
greatest university.
The provisions of the late Cecil Rhodes’
will were that each state In the United
states be given two scholarships, each
with a value of $1500 a year and to last
three years, competitive examinations to
be the basis for awarding the scholar-
ships. Each state is allowed one this
year and another in 1905. So it will be
seen that for a year Ashby will be the
sole representative from this state.
To Galveston people the fact that Texas’
first Rhodes scholar comes from a neigh-
boring town, Alvin, will be a source of
interest and pleasure. Mr. Ashby’s edu-
cation was received at th© Lincoln, Neb ,
high school and at the university of
Texas, Austin, where he graduated last
June with an enviable record as a stu-
dent. While at the state university Ash-
by was for a year student assistant in
English and editor of several of the stu-
dent publication©. He intends, to make
journalism his life profession.
Col. Miller was in charge of the United
States engineer’s office in this city from
March 21, 1893, until Sept. 10, 1897. While
here he had under him at various times
as his assistants Capt. Charles S. Riche,
Capt. Lansing F. Beash, Lieut. William
C. Langfitt and Lieut. William V. Judson.
The principal works which were being
overseen by the United States engineer’©
office at that time were the Galveston
harbor improvements, mouth of the
Brazos river, Aransas pass and bay,
Brazos Santiago, Galveston channel,
Texas City channel, Galveston ©hip chan-
nel and Buffalo bayou, Trinity river,
Brazos river, West Galveston bay chan-
nel, mouths of adjacent streams, bridges
across navigable waters and the Galves-
ton defense works. It was Col. Miller
who started the work on the forts at this
point. Assistant Engineer Hartwick, at
present in the local office, laid cut the
plans for the first four under the super-
vision of Col. Miller and the work was
carried out according to his plan©.
