TelepQose siessaapea froe Wallace say tSit the slide occurred at 11 :3J o'clock. ?-cae parties started at once fron Wallace to the scene cf the disaster. A special relief train was alao started oct from Spokane. Becauje cf the deep snow and block aded condition of the road from Wat lace to Haite, no detaHa of the eataa tmphe have yet been received. Eeavy snow has bees falling in Northers Idaho during the past week, and with the thaw which began yester day conditions were favorable for just such a disaster which has overwhelmed the Little tows. Willi Walla. Wash., Feb. 2S. A special dispatch at 3 a. m. says that five hundred rescuers have taken out seven dead bodies while 23 men, wo men and children were taken from the slide alive, that occurred at Mace last night. It is knows that 100 additional are dead. The slide is half a mile long and 30 feet deep. The first train bearing the 25 injured left Mace for Wallace at 2:25 a. m. Additional rescuers are being sent to the scene on a train now being made up here. "Corpse" Comes to Life. Eroocville, IneL, Feb. 2S. Popular misconception of the coroner's law nearly permitted the body of Miss Olnre Sanders to be froaes in a snow bank today. Miss Sanders' sister missed Olive from the bouse and found her. seemingly dead, lying in the snow is the barnyard. It took two boors to get the coroner, and the body lay where it was found. He "viewed" the body and it was carried into the house. The usdertaker was railed to prepare it for burial At this stage Miss Sanders revived. Blue Book Karnes Picked. Chicago. Feb. 2S. A mas who bad prepared from Chicago's "blaefaook" a long list of wealthy people from whom, the police assert, he intended to extort money, was arrested tonight af ter he had held up and robbed Dr. B. H. Chamberlain. Later the robber was identified as Edwin English. Is his possession were found a bargiar'a kit and letters addressed to wealthy Chicagoans. One letter demanded $3,700 from Dr. D. K. Pearsons. Butte Strike May Soon End. Butte, Mont., Feb. 28. A settle ment of the strike of mine engineers is expected soon.

Before long tt was roar lr.?. and diffusing a genial warmth oa ail aides. The American was brought to and laid on blankets, and the four English men abated themselves around th r to enjoy their scanty meal of biscuit and hot tea, the last remains of th provisions on the sledge. Not a word aa spoken by Hatteras, asd th oth ers respected his sllenc. When the meal was over, tb doctor rose and went out, making a sign t Johnson to follow. -Come. Johnson." he said, "our goods ar scattered in all directions. Ws had better pick them up as fast as poaal ble, for the snow may fall at any mo ment, and then It would b quit as leas to look for anything." "Don't let ua lose a minute, then," replied Johnson. "Fire and wood these are our chief wants." "Very well, you search one sld asd m take the other, and well take trota the center to the circumference." This task occupied two hours, and all they discovered was a llttl salt meat, about fifty pounds of pemmieaa. three sacks of biscuits, a small stock of chocolate, five or six pints of brandy, and about two pounds of eoSee, picked up bean by bean off the tee. Neither blankets, nor hammocks, a clothing, were found all had been con sumed In the devouring flame. This slender store of provisions would hardly last three weeks, sad they had wood enough to supply th stove for about the same time. Capt. Hatteras. with Bell and th doctor, had been away on an exploring expedition when the mutiny occurred. The morning after the little party bad built their snow house, he called John son to him. "Tell me all the particulars of th mutiny on the brig,." he said. "Well." began the sailor, "almost Im mediately after your departure Ehaa don, supported by the others, took com mand of the ship. I couldn't resist him. Shan don made no attempt at dis cipline. He made them believe that their privations and tolls wer at aa end. Economy was entirely disregard ed. "A blazing tire was kept up is th stove, and the men were allowed to at and drink all them wanted. Not only was tea and coSee at their disposal, but all the liquor. On men who had been so long deprived of strong drink, you may guesa the result They west on In this manner from the 7th to th 15 ti of January." 'And this was Shannon's doing T" asked Hatteras.
