REVENUE OUTERS
RUSH TO KATMAIi
WASHINGTON. July 11.—Four revenue cutters have
been ordered to start immediately to rescue the people
who are reported to he in serious dangei tiom the trup [
tion of Mount Katniai. The news received from the neigh
borhood of the mountain is that the eruption is increasing
and that real danger threatens those who live in the vicin- j
ity of it but the information seems to be somewhat indefi
nite although the government has decided not to take any
chances by delay.
The cutters ordered to the rescue are all in Alaskan
waters and are now on the way. The mountain was re
ported first to be in eruption two or three days ago but
since that time further news has come that what was seen
then w as only the beginning of a much more serious belch
ing which is now threatening, according to the reports
to become as violent as that ot some years ago.
Jl’NEAU. July 11.—It is reported here that four cut
ters have been sent from Washington to rescue people
who are said to be in serious danger from a violent erup
tion of Katniai. Details seem to be lacking but there is a j
feeling abroad that the affair is serious. ;

of Delegate Wickersham but the fact
was that no lot of Democrats m

evidently waiting fo* the other sidr.

A warm few moments came when

A CLOUDBURST
IN LACKAWANNA
12 PEOPLE DROWNED WHEN

FUL TORRENTS FROM THE
MOUNTAINS
SCRANTON, Jul> ll.— lwe'v*
people were drowned and an rnmen-*'
amount of damage was done ♦ ♦ prop
erty by a cloudburst which flooded the
Lackawanna valley yesterday. 'I he
cloudburst occurred n the mountains
and caused frightful torrents to poi.r
down o suddenly into the valley that
the flow has been described as an
avalanche of water. Several peoD-e
only escaped by fleeing to th o moun
tains while their houses were tak. i
up like straws and carrie 1 away
across the country by the fright; ii
torrent The comparatively small
loss of life is due to the fact that th .
water tore down through the gulches
first. Later the whole valley was
flooded but most of ’he peoule had
managed to reach high ground before
this occurred.

SEATTLE, July 1L—William Rar.
dolph Hearst who arrived in Seattle
last evening gave out an interview in
which Tie declares that the next house
of representatives will be republican.
He asserts his confident belief ir this
and declares that the defeat of the

made by President Wilson and par
ticularly the mistake of placing

there.
The arraignment of the president
and administration by the newspaper
man was most bitter and delivered in
such strong terms that it lose.1 part of
its force although he says that he has
made through his papers a careful
canvass of the situation and that he
has id doubt about Republican suc

ULSTER GOVERNMENT ESTABLISHED
BELFAST, July 11.—The Unionists began today the
organization of the provisional government in opposition
to the parliament which is about to be established in Dub
lin. It is believed that tomorrow will witness the estab
lishment of the Belfast assembly as it is the anniversary
of the battle of Boyne and the day celebrated by Orange
men
The organization of the provisional government was
hastened when the house of lords showed the other day
that they could no longer hope to have the home rule bill
thrown out. When the lords passed the amendment pro
posed by the Liberal government it was nothing less than
an acknowledgement that the fight was over and that
Ireland was at last to receive the power to manage her
own internal affairs.
The first act of the provisional government organizers
today was to give Sir Edward Carson a free hand to
mobolize the Unionist volunteers when he thought it ad
j visable to do so.
The British government will probably not take any
steps to suppress the Orangemen unless the latter violate
the peace. General McCready, who is in command of the
British forces in Ulster, is taking every precaution. He
is fully depended on by the Asquith cabinet to do his duty
and he has declared that any officer who refuses to serve
will be dismissed.
The great danger is expected from the fact that the
Nationalist volunteers are now a powerful force and that
they and the Unionists may meet and come to fighting.
Devlin, the Nationalist member of parliament for West
Belfast, has advised his friends not to interfere in any
way with the provisional government and to keep quiet
and calm. It is believed that the chief weapon that will
be used by the Nationalists throughout the country is a
boycott of Belfast merchants, banks, etc. , That they ex
pect will make the Unionists come to time.
The crisis has now been reached, and if a bloody strife
is to come in Ireland it will come very shortly.
GUADALAJARA TAKEN
IN BLOODY BATTLE
DOUGLAS, ARIZ., July 11—That Guadalajara, the
second city of Mexico, has fallen before the onslaught of
the rebel army and that it is now in the hands of the Car
ranza forces after one of the bloodiest battles in the his
tory of Mexico, is the report sent by General Obregon to
to the Constitutionalist president.
He reports that he has routed completely twelve
thousand Federal troops, of which he has captured five
thousand. He also states that he believes the battle lo
mark the beginning of the end of the war, as he expects
no less than fifteen thousand recruits to join his standard
in the captured city, and that these will give him an ar
my against which the forces of Huerta cannot hope to
cope.

VERA CRUZ, July 11.—Senor Mohedo, formerly min
ister of commerce for Mexico, created a violent scene in
this city today when he violently denounced the American

I shook his hand at the United States Hag and declared that
Americans have decided to annex Mexico in spite of their
statements to the contrary. He particularly accuses
Roosevelt and the progressive party as .being .secretly
committed to annexation A great crowd collected and
for a moment an outbreak was feared. Another .state
j ment made by him in the course of his address is that the
democratic and republican parties both are on the side o.
the Maderists and he declared that the foreign minister o>
.Mexico has correspondence that will prove the a--.' * lion.
COAHUIUA. July 11.—The mediators today signed
