& Co., at Mammoth mine, up to lC
O'Clock this morning. 1t is estimat-
ed the remains of at least seventeen
more victims of yesterdays explosion
are still in the pit. 1t is thought all
will be out in a few hours. Nobody
slept at Mammoth last night; in
every home in this little mining
hamlet there was mourning. Fifty
collins arrived from Pittsburg this
morning, and another half hundred
will reach here tonight, an addi
tional order for twenty-five more
was sent this morning. The cause
of the explosion is not yet determIn.
ed. The coroner is on the ground
and thorough investigation will
be made.
A roll call of all the men is in
progress and by this the exact mum
Der of missing will be known. The
rescuing party ls working with
energy and the wreck in the shaft
is being fast cleared up. An Off
cial of the Frick Co. said this morn
ing "It may never be known how Oh
why the explosion occurred. Ar
accumulation of fire damp was prob
ably the cause, but it was never
known to exist in any quantity be-
fore. In fact it will he safe to say
that the Mammoth mine has been
free from damp" There is theory
that a pocket of natural gas was
reached aud that the operation OF
the Yentilating fans now prevents
any accumulation Of it.

ACCIDENTS.
A FRIGHTFUL WRECK


MARYsvILLE, Kan, Jan. 81
Union Pacific passenger train, due
here at 5:25 p. M, was wrecked at
Florene, twenty miles south of this
city at 4.3O p. M, in a collision with
a double-header passenger train,
bearing returning soldiers from the
west. No particulars can be OBJ
tanned, as the railroad officials are
close.mouthed. Several persons are
reported to be killet, including two
engineers. Three engines and ten
or twelve passenger coaches are to-
tally destroyed.
2 a. m.-Later reports are most
alarming. 1t is now reported that
twenty-five people were killed out
right and many wounded. The
train was an excursion. The prop
erty damage is great, 1t is impos-
sible to get a full account of the ac-
cident tonight on account of all
wires and poles being down Mt the
wreck, which occurred at Irving,

Following!
Oregonian, Jan. 28th: "The Aus
trialian ballot bill was passed by the
house this afternoon, without a sim
gle dissenting vote. 1t was very
long, and clerk HeImaN was just
an hour aud half in reading it..
Unlike that of most long bills, the
reading was c,osely followed by a
great majority of the members. The
opposition to the amendments pro-
posed by Mr.. Simon, which will be
appended to the bill in the senate, is
almost wholly confined to the Multi
nomah delegation in the house, who
claim that to amend the bill means
to perpetuate Simon's control OF
Portland municipal affairs. AS a
majority of the members of the
house are interested in the passage
of state ballot reform law, rather
than whether Simon or Lotan run
the primaries in Portland, it is more
than likely that the amendments to
the bill will be concurred in by the
house, and the bill, as amended, be-
come "A law"
The statement that opposition to
the Simon amendments is confined
to the Multnomah delegation is
false. All efforts to amend were
voted down by the house when the
bill was pnt on its passage. Resist
ance to amendments of any sort
will be renewed in the house when
the bill comes back to the house
from the senate, if it is there amend
ed. The house will not tamely
submit to Mr.. Simon's amendments
or any others not proposed by the
friends of the bill. 1t is well known
that secretly the Oregonian is OPP
posed to the Australian ballot bill
1t Is helping the Simon amend
mentS III hopes OF Killing TIE Dllli IL
il cannot help Simon. The repre-
sentatioR made that it is only a
local fight between two Portland
factions is false. The Multnomah
delegation of representatives are
anti-Simon men because the people
are.
The above contains a fraudulent
statement suggested in the interest
of Simon, to intimjdate members OF
The house who have wagon road bills
into voting for the Simon amend
ments. 1t is an attempt to co-rce
the house into concurring in the 81
mon amendments.

PRESS CnMMENTS.


S. +. Chronicle: There seems to
be disposition on the part Of some
members of the legislature to hold
that a judge is above criticism, and
that a newspaper which dares to in
quIre into the motives or to scrutin-
ize the acts Of Il man on the bench
should be subject to the vengeance
of the court without appeal. Per-
haps it is "a case of "ftlluw feeling
making them woudrous KIND" but
whatever may be the fate of
the Maher bill O, viii be found that
the press Of California will take adj
vantage OF the cousti utional pro-
vision which guarantees every citi-
zen the right "to freely speak, write
and publish his sentiments on all
subjects, being responsible for the
abuse Of that right" not to the per-
son criticised, but to the people.
This right cannot be abridged by
the gag method of punishing the
accuser for contempt of court; and it
will be found in the future, as in the
past, that a judge cannot, even with
the aid of the contempt-gag, prevent
himself being branded as scoundrel
if his acts call for such course.
TillamookHerald: TheIndian war
is over, with the loss If score and
more of white men and five or six
times as many red men, and another
chapter in the problem of whether
it is better to treat the Indian as in
dependent nations or dependent
savages is closed. Experience is a
dear school but even it does not al
ways bring speedy conclusions.
Astoriau: Jay Gould says he is
perfectly satisfied with the western
railroad agreement. Should think
he ought to be, when it was his own
work all the way through.
East Oregonian: Senator Raley is
proving himself to be one of the
ablest, shrewdest, most active and
efficient members of the Legislature.
He is doing telling, effective and
grand work for Oregon, particu-
larly Eastern Oregon.
Albany Headlight: Albany ana
her newspapers are utterly lndifier-
ent to the importance Of Tillamook,
and to the relation this ulace will
have to Albany if the \ u :. Rail-
road is ever completed. The Demo.
crat has lost no chance to cast s!urs
at this county, when, really, it is, to
Alblny's interest to foster and en-
courage the growth of this place. Sa-
lem and her newspapers have shown
a much more enterprising and com.
mendable spirit in this relation, and
it seems that there are some parties
in Albany who wish to ignore this
place because "a few Salem capitalists
are interested in town site on Tilla-
NOOK bay.
Grand Ronde Chronicle: OF all
the Pacific coast Senators, Dolph
alone is opposed to free coinage of
silver. Dolph alone is the champion
of Wall street gold bugs and aristoc-
racy and monopoly. Mitchell re-
ceived the unanimous vote
of his party in caucus. Mitchell is
in favor of free coinage, the people
rememberhis uttera uces on this ques-
ton. Wait until Dolph's time comes
and see whether his party will nom
mate him by acclamation. The peo-
pie have their eyes on their senators

ARRESTED IN PHILADELPHIA.
William Wood Taken-supposed to Re
Concerned I'm the Smith burglary on
Saturday Night

william wood raken-suppossd to BE
Concerned in the Smith Burglary on
Saturday Night.
William Wood was arrested in Phila.
delphia yesterday, on the charge Of
being concerned in the robbery of
Robert Smiths house In this city on
Saturday night Wood is the man
who, with Amos Tucker. WAS employed
by Smith a few days before the rob
berry took place Tucker WAS recog
nized by Mrs Angelne at the time
of the burglary, and one Of his
companions, known as Harry" was
seen and fully described Il Is thought
that third man was concerned in the
robbery, but he kept In the back ground
and did not show his face. He was the
man whom 1t Is supposed dubbed old
Mr.. Smith when he came to Mrs. Chap
mans assistance.
Beyond the fact that Mr.. Smith was
stricken down by an unseen hand there
is positively nothing to show that a
third man was concerned In the robbery
and nothing to connect Wood with 1t eA
cept the fact that he was in Tucker !
company few days before the
robbery. On Friday, the day before
INC roDObiyt WoOu went 10 Nuesbef, IL IS
alleged, to do some upholstery work.
while Tucker remained in this city and
kept loafing, In company with Harry,
around Mr. Smiths house
Wood, who was arrested by the
Philadelphia police yesterday, is well.
known in police quarters there. He has
spent nearly his whole life In jail and
has only been out OF the Eastern Pen-
tentiary abous four weeks, rhere be
served term OF one year for
burglary. The city detet tives will
bring Wood to this city as soon as the
necessary requisition papers are made
ont. but unless Tucker and his accom-
plice are arrest d they have little hopes
of securing a conviction. he had money
in his possession when arrested. which
may prove that either he was no. con.
cerRed in the robbery or that he was
stranded" by his fellows.
