The Senate tonight received the report OF
the joint committee appointed to investigate
the charges against Judge George F. Gober

understand it. President Clay Is a strong
friend Of Judge Gober This plan was fin-
ally adopted One hundred copies of the
report will be printed for the use
of the Senate, and action will be
taken Friday morning. The report,
which is lengthy, exonerates Judge Gober,
holding that be did not exceed his authority
in changing the record complained Of All

way that sustains Judge Gober In every
point Of his official record Such a report
was expected.

Engineer Injured.

Xix AtAooE ALJALOA
CEDARTowN, GA. Dec IA News reached
here tonight at s o'clock OF hesd-end col
lsion near Lavender, twelve miles from
Rome on the Chattanooga division of the
Central. Engineer Brown was seriously
injured, and was brought to Cedartown on
the accommodation. The freight engine on
No. 90 and work train collided on the main
line and both engines were totally wrecked
and the freight cars thrown in a heap. At
the moment Of contact ali the crew Of both
engines leaped from their engines except
Engineer Brown, who saw the other engine
too late to jump. The railroad men
here state that the wreck was due
TO the fact that both trains were running on
verbal orders instead of Geographic. There
is much excitement among the conductors
and engineers and Tonight they are holding
a meeting in the yard. They are
demoralized and say that if something is
not done TO change the unsuccessful
way" as they put it. "of running trains on
one track with verbal orders instead of
regular orders, as heretofore, they will call
on Judge Speer to adjust the differences
between the operators and General Super
intendent Wadley." Supt. McNeely
and Trainuaster Epperson for
this division are here, but de-
cline TO say anything about the roads
troubles. Much interess is shown in the re-
suit and the air Is redolent with rumors of

AN EXPLOSION IN A NINE.

A Hundred Men in Peril and Still in the
Pit.
LONDON, Dec. 14-An explosion occurred
to-day at the Bamfurlong colliery at Wigau.
A multitude rushed toward the mine. The
greatest excitement prevailed. 1t was soon
ascertained that large number had per
ished and the wailing and weeping women
and children made an Understandable scene.
1t is believed The explosion was caused by
accumulated gas.
Later advices from Wigan state that IA
talities by the explosion may be less serious
than at first reported. The situation, how
ever. is critical. A hundred men remain in
the mine unable TO get out owing to the fire
which followed the explosion.

The Senate Fixes the Amount for the
Military at $4,000.
ATLANTA. GA, Dec. 14.-Besides hearing
the Gober report the Senate tonight con-
sidered the appropriation bill. A radical
change was made by fixing the appropria-
tions in the bill for two years instead
of one as the bill passed the
House. This is done to save time in legis-
lation.
The finance committee OF the Senate has
also recommended that the tax bill cover
two years for the same season and the Sem
ate will doubtless leave il that
way. There was fight over
the appropriation of $1,000 TO
the Dshlonega branch college, but 10 was
finally allowed TO stand. The military ap-
preparation was increased to $500 It is
believed that the House will refuse 10 con-

Lost Els Identity by Wire-Is Crank
on Rife shooting

Il was in Coffeyville, Kan. the other
day" said Travelling Salesman VIII Prentiss
to Washington Post man, land found
the sensational fight with the Dalton gang
still occupying the minds Of the people to
the exclusion of pretty much everything
else.
The hero of that fight, who shot three
OF the outlaws, and hit each of them in the
head, has lost q good deal OF the credit due
him on account of an error in sending out
his name. The wires made out that the
name of the remarkable manipulation of a
Winchester on that occasion was John
Speer, or Spear. Well. il amt His name
is John Kloehr, and he fairly owns Coffey-
vile at present.
"At this safe distance I may say that Mr..
Kloehr is a crank on rifle shooting and al
ways has been. Before the tragedy he did
little else thai practice. and he used to de-
light in looking out for rats and shooting
their heads off as they were running. In
deed, DR.. Carver can hardly pass him in
craftsmanship
Emmett Dalton, whose arm was shat
tered by bullet Us rapidly getting we'll &,
and will probably be able to stand trial at
the next term Of the court. The impress
sion exists in Cofeyville that powerful rem
nants of the gang still exist, and there is
consequently quiet expectation Of more
trouble.
"a funny ching was told me while there.
There is a great deal Of sympathy for the
Daltons in most of the towns near Coffey-
vile. These colonies put forward the re-
markable argument that the Daltons only
robbed banks. while the banks rob every
body else. But you can't be surprised at
anything you meet In Kansas, from Its
water to its politicians"
