iiundnff f.treet. on Tnursday evening,
fs Tetlns riueerly and it Is believed
thai lil.s mind has heen affected by
the infury he sii.sliilnert.
Raid Hern, when ho Jumped, was
turned ,ibout anil was thrown with
i intent force against the Rrouitd. The
principal Injury was above, his left
eye, where there was n preat s-welllnpc.
A c.'iretul examination wan marie to
lor.itp a fraetuic of the skull, but none
was found. Directly after tho acci
dent and since then. Barluera has
artPd r.traiiROly. He was conscious
when picked up and beyond being
slightly dazed he seemed to have pos
session of his senses. When asked
rpteMions, however, he returned a
blank look and muttered tin Incoherent
reply. Yesterday he told the hospital
attendants that he was woli ennuqh
to po home to his hoardlm? place, but
the latter uracil him to remain until
iully recovered. He wouldn't heed
them and left the hospital with their
protests following him. flarlucca was
not pone ImiR' before he was back,
with a feu of his countrymen. They
advised him to return, but when he
ignored their advice they pleaded with
him to come hack with them nnd re
main until well. Finally he save way
to them and became a hospital charge
apain.
Barlucea has done a number of
strange thiiiK. which would indicate
he was unbalanced. When told of this
his friends declared positively that
heretofore he always appeared to be
of sound mind and that this behavior
was not out of tho ordinary. In the
face of the representations, it was con
cluded that the .shaking up he re
ceived temporarily affected his reason.

TROUBLE FOR ANOTHER
GUAM GOVERNOR.
Commander Schroeder Stirs Up Men
Under Him by His Orders.
By Fschisice Wire from Tho Anointed Pi-r..
San Francisco, Juno 2". There seems
to bo something about the climate of
Guam which makes men autocratic.
Captain Leary was recalled for playing
cysxr, and now Commander Schroeder,
tho present governor, has stirred up a
tempest in this far-away island by a
lemarknhle order that, is hltterly re
sented 'by the lf.O sailors and marines
there. It seems the last barrel of
whiskey in the hospital stores was
stolen recently. Governor Schroeder
made great efforts to discover the
thieves, but failed.
He decided that as the men would not
tell of the thieves, all should suffer.
Hence he had them lined up on the
Plaza, publicly censured them in a
speech, and punished them by confin
ing them to barracks and forbidding
all liberty after taps. He also declared
there had been numerous thefts from
sailors and marines of money and
clothing, and lie ended by expressing
the hope that the rogues might he ex
posed so that the command would cease
to be "a source of shame to their ofli
cers and disgrace to their country and
their uniform."
The enlisted men are greatly wroth
over this order, as they say there is
no justice in punishing 150 men for
the sins of a few. They also object
to an additional order, which bars out
whiskey, beer, and any other bever
age containing alcohol without a per
mit from the governor. Officers can
get permits, but these are not allowed
to common sailors. The sailors posted
a protest on the walls of the bar
racks declaring the order high-handed,
and one which no governor of a state
at homo would flare to publish. They
declare also that the governor's arbi
trary rule Is resented by the people
of Guam, who find It more harsh than
tho corrupt administration of tho
Spanish.

are jammed together In one largo mass
of broken timbers and debris.
At the Glllum company's colliery the

Railroad Loss $2,000,000.
At Indian Ridge the company store
was considerably damaged and the
stock lost. Tho residence of Captain
C. Botsford. the manager. Is wrecked
also. Tho North Forks track is near
ly all washed away, all the trestles be
ing destroyed except one. In Klkhorn
valley It Is estimated that the loss to
the railroad and coal Interests will
exceed $:,000.000. Out of twelve miles
of main line double track, only one
mile remains, and all the bridges are
gone. Some of the dirldgos were of
the heaviest masonry and iron, but
they could not resist tho force of the
flood.
The Crozer company, one of the
largest operators, lost a thousand
horse-power electric plant and many
buildings and coko ovens. Their lo.ss
is said to be S.'iO.OOO. Tlie Tierney in

will cost $7.1,000. The Houston company
is damaged some $20,000. There are
over twenty collieries whose damage

leading to coke ovens and mines are
gone. In some Instances mine locomo

BAILROADS SEND
WORK TRAINS.
Loss of tho Companies Will Reach
500,000.
Roanoke, Va.. June 23. The railroad
people say It will he at least five days
before their lines are open for trains.
They have been sending work trains to
the storm-ntrlckon district from all
directions. The loss of the railroad will
reach $500,000. A private message from
Hrnmwell, W. Va.. on Simmons creek,
says there has been great damage done
there, but no loss of life had been re
ported up to the time the telegram was
Kent. The little town of Vivian, at
which place the railroad yards were
swept away and a passenger train
Hooded, is the shipping point of all
west-bound coal and coke, and there Is
a succession of prosperous mining
towns extending all the way to Poca
hontas. Va. Nearly every mile post
along this portion of the road marks a
mining operation. At North Fork Junc
tion, seven miles from Vivian, there is
a branch road extending five and one
half miles up the north fork of Elk
horn to several prosperous mining
plants, From Cooper, eleven miles
further, a branch road extends through
the bluestone district of the coal field
to Goodwill, and another tn Bramwell,
a town of about BOO inhabitants. This

Taaowell Is in tho Clinch Valley divis
ion of tho Norfolk and AVestern rail
road, nine miles fiom Tip Top, which Is
tho highest railroad point east of tho
Rocky mountains. It Is known that the
damage to crops and buildings In Taze

that tho death list, now numbeiing
three children, will bo enlarged when
later details come In. Tlie territory of
tho F.lkhnrn valley Is a narrow strip
extending for miles through the moun

mountain stream flowing into it. The
valley Is not over 300 yards wide at any

either side und through this ravine-like
mountain wuy the Norfolk and West

hunched miles. It is in this district
that many mining towns have fcprung
