SPRING HILL on. S.), Feb. 23.-The
Mayor of Spring Hill has issued an ap-
pear to the public of this city and the
towns throughout Canada and the United
States, asking for aid on behalf of the
widows and children of those killed i'll

response to the appeal be hearty and
prompt.
Up to this evening 119 bodies had been
taken out, and it is believed there are
more in the mine. Most of the victims
were killed by the deadly after-damp, the
positions of the bodies whef found show
ing that they were overcome while run
ming, probably after the explosion.
Twenty bodies were picked up within
few feet of each other in No. slope.
Subscriptions to the relief fund are be-
ginning to pour in.
LATERAL midnight the list of dead
numbered 100.
This afternoon broken-hearted
Frenchman named Oliver Dupre took
from the Morgue the body of his dead
son, James. His other son ran out to
meet the sorrowful father. slipped on the
ice and struck his head with such force
that he was instantly killed.
Not one of the men who could probably
throw light upon the cause of the explo-
sion is left to tell the tale. Not only are
the collieries idle, but all business in

President Frances Willard's Openin
Address,

President Frances Wizards Opening
Address.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The triennial
convention of the Women of the United
States opened at Albaugh's Opera House
this morning. President Frances Will
lard's address was feature of the OPEN
ing session. Representative were pres
ent from all parts of the country.
Miss Willard, in her address, said a
difference of opinion on one question
must not prevent the women of America
from working unitedly on those which
they can agree. They were engaged in a
heroic struggle to lift women from mere
seXhood up toward glorious womanhood,
and to do this for humanity's sake was
the problem. When every woman shall
say to every other combine" the war
dragon shall be slain, the poverty yiper
exterminated, the gold-bug transfixed by
a silver pin, the saloon drowned out and
the last white slave liberated from the
woods of Wisconsin and the bagnios of
Chicago and Washington.
Miss Willard spoke on the details of
the organization, and favored the most
complete and extensive one possible-one
that should include and comprehend
local councils in every state, county, citv.
town and village in the land. She re-
viewed the advance of women, and said
these three years since the last council
have produced greater results than the
previous ten years.

ARBITRARY RULINGS.

Resolution Calling Attention to AL
legged Falsfficatfon of the Journals.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-In the House
to-day, Wyke of Illinois, introduced for
reference lengthy preamble and resolu-
ton calling attention to the frequent
falsifcations of the journal'' by the arbi-
trary action of the Speaker in counting a
quorum ''of members not present" etc.
Special reference was made to the trouble
of last Friday and Saturday, when Wyke
says,
'.These arbitrary, unlawful and uncon-
Stitutional acts were done in pursuance of
plan concocted by the leaders of the
party just overthrownNb by an overwhelm-
ing majority of the people at the polls,
and III the closing hour of their power, to
install for life into new Federal judicial
offices, then and there being created for
that purpose, a number of repudiated and
defeated candidates of the party at that
election in defiance of and against the
Will OF large majority of the voters of
the country
The resolution says all these acts make
the liberties of the people, and inasmuch
as no remedy exists now, except in the
power of the majority, which is usually
in political sympathy with the presiding
officer, the judiciary Committee is di-
rected to submit a joint resolution sub
uniting for ratification to the Constitution
providing for the impeachment and re-
moval from office, with suitable penalties,

officer of the Senate guilty of such prac-

were found alive this afternoon. They
were all Hungarians. How they sur
vived is miracle. Nothing like it has
been known or heard of in the Pennsvl-
vania coal-fields. Up to to-day thirteen
bodies had been found, and the rescuers
to-day worked harder than ever to learn
the fate of the remaining five.
Late tonight, while two men were
searching on the breast of the east gang
way, they came across the five Hun
garians, huddled closely together and al
most dead. They were so weak that with
one exception they could not be moved

and large stock of blankets taken down
with them to the other four men. Care
ful nursing will be given them, and every
effort put forth to save their lives.
The searchers say that their attention
was attracted about 9 o'clock by a slight
tapping on the walls, and working i'm that
direction they finally came upon the men.

gram from the Secretary of State of
Oregon stating that the Legislature de-
sired the delegation in Congress to secure
from the Government an increase of ap-
preparation for permanent improvement
at The Dalles by means of a boat railway.
The message stated that the bill in the
Oregon Legislature to provide for the
construction of a portage railway at The
Dalles had failed. Senator Dolph said he
regretted this fact very much, as it
showed disposition adverse to helping
themselves, and under such circum-
stances it was difficult to secure Govern
ment aid in Washington.
The Oregon delegation held meeting

Resolution for the appointment of a
Committee to Visit the Territory.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Ex-senator Platt
has presented a resolution to authorize
the Committee on Territories or any sub
committee to visit Alaska during the re-
cess of the Senate to make inquiry into
the resources of that country, inquire
into the needs of the Government, the
character of legislation necessary to de-
velop district, and any and all matters
relating to the welfare of the people.
Senator Mitchell says he thinks the
resolution will pass, and the committee
will visit Alaska before the next session
of Congress. He thinks that it is an i'm
portant matter for the Coast States in a
commercial way, as the more attention
given to Alaska, in his judgment, will re-
suit in advertising the district, and caus-
ing people to move there, and also give
the inhabitants a better chance to under
stand their surroundings, and better op-
portunities for extending business.
