EosLYN NINE TO BE INSPECTED.
Gov. Ferry Determined to Prosecute
Mhoexer Is to RlaIne for the Disaster.

Whoever Is to Blame for the Disaster.
OLYMPIA, May l3-[Spseial l-Governor Ferry
has directed Joseph James. coal mine inspector
OF district No. ., TO make immediately thorough
investigation of the cause Of the Roslyn ex'
plosion. The last legislature enacted one OF the
best laws to be found in the United States Tor
the protection Of coal miners, and especially Tor
the proper ventilation and safety OF the mines.
From q study of this law Governor Forty has
become satisfied that If its provisions had been
complied with by the officers OF the Rosiyn
mines and the inspector the recent explosion
would have been almost an impossibility. III
tne safeguards required oy the statute have not
been provided by the owners OF the mine Gov
ernor Ferry will see that they are prosecuted TO
the full extent of the Law. If it develops that
the state coal mine inspector has been negligent
in the performance OF his duties he will be re-
moved ald prosecuted.
The requirements OF tie law are rigid as to ex-
aminatiops of mines and as 10 precautions to be
taken to prevent explosions. II provides that
where firedamp is generated every working
place must be examined every morning with a
safety lamp, and workman are to be kept out of
the mine until this examination is made and
the mine reported safe. 1t is also made impera-
tive that the amount of air circulated for yenti-
lation shall in no case DC less than 100 feet per
minute. The governor is convinced that these
aud other provisions for the safety of the miners
were not strictly observed, and he is determined
to discover who is responsible Tor the negli-
gence

AN IOWA MURDERER'S PERIL.
The Citizens Wanted to Lynch Him, but
He Was Hustled Away.

CORNING, H., May 1s.-James Dooley, who
fiendishly murdered Mrs. Coon aud her 10-year
old child in her home, a mile south of
Prescott, Ia, last Thursday, was captured this
moning in Fillisca. Dooley was tracked to the
depot and was arrested while writing tele-
gram The revolver with which the murder
was committed was found in his overcoat
pocket Dooley was quietly placed in q box
car of passing freight train aud
brought to Corning Jail. He persistently denies
having committed the murder until noon, when
he broke down and confessed his guilt He says
he quarreled with Mrs. Coon. and struck her
on the head with u paddock, telling her
10 the floor. He denied ravish-
ing her, but the position OF the
body and clothing contradict this. He says the
little girl ran in and he struck her to the floor
with the paddock and then shot her in the fore
head. The evidence goes 10 show, however,
that he killed the girl after she escaped from the
house, pool OF blood on the outside OF the
house and a bullet in the side of tho house
would indicate.
About o clock this afternoon the sheriff took
Dooley from the Jail to the depot. intending to
transport him to some Western Iowa town. The
train was two hours late, and before the train
arrived the depot was surrounded by a mob OF
1000, who threatened to hang Dooley. Several
deputies were sworn in. and Dooley was safely
placed on the train for Council Bluffs

WANT THEIR SALARIES INCREASED.
A Committee of c. & O. TeIegraphsrs Con.
fer With SnnerIntendent Iennard

Mr.. NJ. j. Leonard. the superintendent
Of telegraph of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railway, Yesterday had a conference with a
committee representing the operators en-
plOyed by the company. who requested
certain changes III the rules now govern
ING their work.
The committee was composed Of Messrs.
w. II. Luck chairman and r. I. Bib,
Of Rlchmond. and e.. g. Wood and j. +.
Ratcnfie. of Huntington, w. Va These
gentlemen asked the COMPANY 10 have
fixed rules In regard TO compensation of
operators for overtime and investigations
in cases OF dismissal. They also requested
compensation tor extra service, and sub
mltted list Of salaries which they thought
the railroad should pay 10 the employees
IN the various telegraph Offices of the com
pany.
There can be no regular scale of prices
for operators. as the various positions they
ocCupy'command different prices, but the
increase asked cOntemplates more pay for
all who click the instruments for the great
COrpOratlOn-that $ TO say, on all the
divisions from Cincinnati 10 Fort Monroe,
and from Richardson, n.y., and Lexington,
XIV. The amount involved IN the demand
signifies something like S2S. 900 or $50, 900
per anuum out of the treasury of the COM
pauy If they accede to the requests made
bv the telegrapheTs, as the railroad en-
ploys about 4Os operators aud thirty DIS
patchers.
The telegraphers make their demands of
the company because thoy tmnk that they,
az well as the other employees of the line,
should share in tho enjoyment OF the in
creased revenues OF the road, but the Off
cials maintaln that such has always been
the case.
The conference between Mr.. Leonard
and the committee was a trien1ly, conf
dental one and Mr.. Leonard promised to
consider their propositions and do what
ever was in his power to help them in any
reasonable way. He will probably answer
the demands of the operators next week.
