BERLIN, Aug. 9.—The with
drawals in Galicia are admitted.
Lack of ammunition owing to the
destruction of railroad bridges
over three streams from the unusu
al floods is to be blamed for the
mishaps which the Austrians have
had to meet. The rivers are alt
swollen beyond any normal condi
tion and the fearful rains still con

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.—The railroads

offer to mediate in their difficulties

COAL MINE EXPLOSION.
MICHAEL, B. C., Aug. 9.—The
Michael mine at this place and like
other Fernie mines owned by the
railroad company, was the scene of
an unusual explossion today which
was of such force as to smash every
window within a radius of half a
mile and killed three with its saork.
The explosion was caused it is
said by an electric storm which ex
ploded the gas in mine No. 3.
Twelve are entombed in the mine
and no hopes are entertained of
their being rescued. The gas was
accumulating in dangerous quanti
ties in the mine and safety lamps
were used. An explosion occurred
lute some years ago in which
hundreds were killed.
Now la the time to Subscribe.
Let ns estimate on /our Job Work
not intimated their attitude, but the.
sentiment is so strong against any
sort of .outside arbitration or medi
ation that it is not likely to be con
sidered. One of the leaders' of the
brotherhoods declared that they
could have got arbitration at any
time, and they knew that everytime
they got it they were jobbed.
DAYLIGHT HOLD-UP.
SALT LAKE, Aug. 9.—The High
land Boy mine was raided today
when the mine store safe was loot
ed and three thousand dollars in
cash extracted. A posse was soon
organized and scouring the country
for the robbers came upon the ban
dits who proved to be all Mexicans
who were formerly in the employ of
the company having been brought
from Mexico as strike breakers
when the union men struck at this
mine some years ago.
The men are to be brought here,
according to late reports. The loot
has not been recovered.
