On Hundred Dead From Collision on the
Coast of France.
Marst'lllles, June 10. More than 100
persona perished today near M&raoii
leg aa the result of a collision between
tbe Inaulaire and tbe Uban passenger
steamers, belonging to the FralSHenet
Steamship Company. The Llban left
Marseilles this morning on Its regula
pasaenger trip to BaMla, Corsica, and
was run down and sunk by the ins
lalre off the Maire Islands.
The collision wag witnessed from the
pilot-boat Blethamp. which was about
two miles distant The Blcchamp Im
mediately repaired to the spot to ren
dcr assistance.
Tbe force of the colllelonn had cut
great bole In the Lihan'a side, and It
already was making water rapidly
The captain saw that the only chance
was to run the steamer aground, an
the Llban was beaded full speed for
tbe shore; but within 17 minutes afte
the collision and while still in deep
water, the fore part of the steamer
plunged beneath the waves, and a few
minutes later bad disappeared.
In the .meantime the Blechamp, tbe
steamer Balkan, also belonging to the
Fralgaenet Company, and other vesdelc
had drawn near the sinking ship and
were making desperate efforts to res
cue those on board. The Blechamp
picked up 40 persona, many of whom
were at tbe point of exhaustion. Th
Balkan rescued 37 passengers and u
to the present It is known that In ad
dltion to the passengers, 17 of the
crew were also saved.
Officers of the steamer Balkan des
crlbe the scene lust before tbe Llban
disappeared as a terrible one. As the
vessel was sinking It wag Inclined to
such an angel that tbe masts struck
the water, causing an eddy, making the
work of rescue most difficult. A mase
of human beings was clinging to the
foundering vessel and uttering despair
ing cries as it went down.
At tbe same time the boilers ex
ploded. Intensifying the horrors. For
r. few moments the victims were seen
struggling In the sea, when the waves
closed over them and all was silent
Of about 200 passengers who were
i. board tbe Llban, it wag feared that
half were drowned.
CHILE ROW ALARMS.
United SUtea Has Ordered Wargnlpa to
Valparaiso.
Washington. June 10. Upon the re
ceipt of reports from American agent!
n Chile to the effect that the sltua
lion at Valparaiso Is unsatisfactory.
owing to the recent Solclallst disturb
ances there, the State Department thlg
afternoon requested the Navy Depart
ment to dispatch a ship to that point
in order that American Interests may
be, fully protected in the event of an
emergency.
The Navy Department at first
thought of sending the entire Pacific
squadron from San Francisco, but as
Rear-Adrr Glass has just brought
his ships California waters for re-
alrs. It was decided to order Rear
Admiral Sumner, commanding the
North Atlantic station, to proceed at
once with his squadron now at Monte
video through the Straits to Valparai
so. Cable orders to this efTect were
sent Admiral Sumner this afternoon.
Orders were also telegraphed to Ad
miral Glass to be ready for sea, and
the event that Admiral Sumner's
fleet is unable to get under way at
once, the Kacinc squadron may be or-
1ercd to Chilean waters In Its stead
Rear-Admiral Sumner's fleet consists
the protected cruiser Newark, flag
ship: protected cruiser Detroit and the
gunboats Gloucester and Montgomery.

New Westminster, B. C. June 10.

lumbia has decided to proclaim a strike

tory. Take the average number of

Plague Experiments Stopped.
Berlin, Jine 10. In consequence of
the death from plague at the Berlin
lospltal of the young Vienna physician'
Dr. MJlan Sachs, the government has
decided to issue a decree forbidding
further experiments with plague
germs, the risk of spreading Infection
being considered more dangerous to
the public health than the knowledge
gained in studying a deadly microbe
justified.

days' hard fighting the Venexuelan gov
ernment troops, under the command of
General Gomes, assaulted the camp of
the revolutionists, commanded by Gen
eral Matos, General Rlerla and General
