From HOnner's Ferry.
SPOKANE FALLS, Feb. 2.~I Especial. Burns
II Chapman, tho well-known railroad con-
tractors OF this city. to-day received official
notice that their contract for building fifty
five miles Of Hrent Northern railway had
been approved by the chief engineer. This
contract is for the construction Of the road
from Kootenai Falls, on the Kootenai river,
westward to the halfway house. which is
hnlf way between Bonner's Ferry. on the
Kootenai river, and Kootenai station, on
the main line of the Northern Pacific.
This ia as fur west MS the road has been
definitely located. Burns & Chapman will
employ $500 men, some of whom will be
sent to the front tomorrow to begin
work. The contract will require the ex-
penditure OF over million dollars, as 1T in
cludes some Of tho heaviest. work on the
line. The contractors expect to have their
part OF the road built and ready for opera
tion by the first Of next January, and It ia
confidently expected that cars will be run
ming into Spokane Falls by that time 10 the
work between the half way house and this
city will be comparatively easily built.
Burns u Chapman are among the largest
railroad contractors in the northwest. hav-
ing built the Cascade branch OF the
Northern Pacific, also the Spokane d
Northern and a lnrae portion of the Oregon
Short Line. Surveying parties are strung
out along the proposed line of the Great

summit of the Cascade mountains. The
indications are, however, that Spokane
Falls will be the western terminus of the
road for at least year.

DIVIDING THE BUSINESS.

Work of the Managers and Agents of
Western Roads.
CHICAGO, Feb. 2.-The traffic managers of
western roads adopted the report of the
committee on stock shippers' tickets, ex-
cept the provision for joint agent at the
stock yards. The general freight agents of
the respective lines will look after new tick
cts. Having completed the work of estab-
fishing territorial divisions, the new west
ern traffic association commissioners are
now working on the problem of percentages,
by which competitive traffic is to be divided
among various roads. This is so important
and delicate a task that it will probably
take some time. Traffic officials of inter
ested lines are apparently becoming con-
vinced that the new agreement will be put
into operation and are trimming sails &C
cordingly. The Rock Island general pas
senger agent to-day sent circular to all
agents to the effect that all rules and regu-
lations of the various associations must be
strictly maintained and carried out. Agents
of other roads will receive similar instruc-
tions.

Several Persons Thought to Have

Willing Hands Brave Great DAN
ger and Save Comrades
From Death.
Has Been ON Fire Several
Times Before.

kEwcAsTLE, Col, Feb. 3.2 a. ma Sec
ond Mammoth mine disaster occurred here
this evening in the Giand River coal and
coke mines. just at six o'clock, as the day
shift, composed of 75 men, was about
TO leave the mine a terrific explosion oc-
Cured, and Immediately black smoke came
pouring out of the side of the mountain.
Men, women and children rushed toward
the entrance of the mine, only
to be driven back by clouds of
moke. Above tho roar of escaping
gas the pitifnl cries of imprisoned
miners could be plainly heard :by their
wives and children. Soon willing hands
brayed the great danger and started the
hoist'nR machinery, relieving each other as
fast as their comrades became exhausted.
Soon seventy-ive miners were brought to
the surface, some more dead than alive,
and none of them any too soon, as the
flames Immediately reached the shaft and
came up with such force as TO drive every
body away. Explosions have been follow
ing everv few hours.
At two O'Clock this (Tuesday) morning
the excitement is SO great that it is impos-
sible to tell if any one failed to get out. 1t
is thought several have perished. Had the
explosion occurred when the miners were at
work not one would have escaped. The
mine has been on fire several times before
in the last two years, caused by miners
lamps iRniting gas, which has always
roubled them.

ON IT'S MERITS.
The Bering Sea Controversy Before the
supreme Court.

The Bering Sea Controversy Before the
supreme Court
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Chief Justice Fuller
to-day announced that the supreme court
had decided to grant the petition of coun-
sel representing the British government for
leave to file application for a writ of prohi-
bition to prevent the district court of
Alaska from proceeding to carry out its de-
cree of forfeiture made in the case of the
schooner Seyward, libelled for taking seals
in the waters of Bering sea. The court
asked counsel at what date a
rule requiring the Alaska court to come
here and show cause why writ of
prohibition should not issue should be
made returnable, by mutual agreement
the rule was made returnatle the second
Monday in April. This settles merely the
preliminary question of right to bring the
case into court, and the matter now to be
settled is whether or not the court will de-
eide that writ of prohibition should issue.
There must now be argument on the merits
of the Bering sea controversy. In announc-
ing the determination of the court the
chief justice said that the argument had
taken much wider range than was neces-
snry, and that tho court was of opinion that
it had jurisdiction by way of prohibition.
under section 6SS, revised statutes, to re-
view the proceedings of the Alaska court.
