IN DOUBT
It Will Never Be Known Who
Was Responsible for the
Explosion
Which Caused the Death of
Mine Boss and Engineers at
Wilkesbarre.
Six Thought to Be All That Are
Dead.-Great Disaster Near
Moscow.

WnKEsBARRE, Pa, Oct. 9.-The
bodies Of the three engineers and the
fire boss who were killed in the explo-
sion in the Dorrance mine have been
recovered. A party Of rescuers headed
by Foreman Jones were the first to come
upon the bodies. The carpenter house
was fitted up as temporary morgue
and as the mangled remains were
brought to the surface they were. laid
out on it. The corpses were burned al
most beyond recognition. Fire Boss
Davis and Engineer Owens were liter
ally roasted and Cahill's body had a
large cash on the forehead, evidently
from the force of the explosion. The
men were killed by the force Of the ex-
plosion, and all died nearly in the same
spot. Up to s a. m. no more bodies had
been found, and it is now believed the
list of dead will be not more than six.
The Cause in Doubt.
The question as to which one of the
unfortunate party of engineers acct
dentally set the gas on fire will never be
known, as of the four men who entered
the abandoned workings where the gas
was encountered, not one lives to tell
the tale. The general superstition is
that one Of the engineers became care
less in the presence of newly discov-
cred body of gas, and instead Of adopt
ing the precaution Of lowering his light
by STOPPING, he walked into the gas In
an erect position, thereby setting it on
fire and causing the explosion.
Another theory is that it was the fire
boss himself, who caused the accident.
He had charge of the party and the
engineers were subject to his orders. If
he had discovered new body Of gas, it
was his business to give the warning to
the engineers who followed him. The
mine officials are 10th to believe, how
ever, that Davis could have been taken
by surprise. He was very careful
man, and would not have led the en-
gineers into place which he thought
unsafe. 1t had always been his custom,
upon discovering gas in mine, not to
allow anybody to approach until he had
first made everything safe.

report of ex- Receivers Cakes, Rouse and
Payne recently fled with Judge Jen-
kins, states will be necessary during the
next five years to keep the road in good
condition. The cost, according to their
report after deducting the value of the

Favor Public Schools.

W1NNEBAGo CRY, Mimi, Oct. o.
At the Free Baptist conference resolu-
ton was passed offering the sympathy
of the Free Baptist denomination with
the public schools, and declaring that no
public money should go for the support
of sectarian schools. This action was
taken because the impression had gone
out that they were SO in favor OF de-
nominational schools that they did not
believe in any other.

According to Homer commerce De-

impracticab ility of such procedure

injury, hence little by little they had
recourse to metals, gold and silver

as a measure of value, which did not

Government had to interpose in regu-

stamp in order to assure their purity
and protect commerce. DECEASED or
counterfit money has been made In all
countries and ages. The money OF
reputabl and solvent nations are
taken at value of the governmental
s,.mp. Doubtful ones have their
money melted TO ascertain its weight
and purity. At the end of the second
p,nic war the indemnity money
hronobt to Rome by the Carthagenian
Embasadors was not OF good alloy

one.fourth bad. The Carthagenian'

We have abiding faith in the tri-

and issues. The great commercial
banking aud manufacturing interests
are all for gooh money, and when the
laboring millions come to realize as

of a good dollar is greater than de-
based one, and that they will be paid
wages in the cheapest money their en-
ployer can procure, and that wages
are the last thing to be effected
by imitation they too will want
sound money. AS national ques-

The Durrant Defense .

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26.-In
the trial of Theodore Durrant yes
terday, the defense began its testi-
mony, striving to prove that Rev.
John George Gibson, pastor Of
Emanuel church, committed the
murders. This created sensation.
The defense also declares it will
prove every step of Durrants way
on the fatal day and his attendance
on the medical lectures in the
evening, but DR.. Cheney, who it
was announced would testify that
Durrant attended his lecture at the
medical college on the afternoon of
April 3, says he will make no such
statement. He says that Durrant
is marked as present on his books
but that he does not know positive
ly that Durrant was there.
The district attorney and the
police scott at the attempt made
by the defense in the Durrant case
to cast suspicion upon Rev. Gibson.
They said, in response to a ques-
ton, that no order would be is
sued for the clergyman's arrest.
Rev. Gibson himself denied that
he had written the names on the
newspaper as charged by Attorney
DuDrey.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL
WANTS SlO,OOO,OOO INCREAsEE IN
CAPITAL STOCK.
Will Buy the Chesapeake, Ohio and
Western and Make Princely
Improvements on
all Lines.

CHICAGO, Sept. 26.-The ten mil
lion dollars increase of the capital
stock of the Illinois Central rail-
road which the stockholders of
that corporation will be asked to
authorize at the special meeting
called by the directors on Nov. "a,
is to be used in completing the
purchase of the Chesapeake and
Ohio and Southwestern railroad.
For nearly year, the Illinois
Central has been busily engaged
in buying up the bonds of that COM
pany which has been in the
hands of receivers since December,
1898. The exact amount of this
amount of $10,000,000 that is to
be applied to this purchase is
81 100000, and of the balance
81 100000 is intended to be spent
in carrying out the plans for i'm
proving the roads property on the
lake front. How the remaining
81, 300, 900 will be used is yet I'M
settled, but that it will be spent
largely in improvements over the
entire Illinois Central system is
probable.
Officials of the road are extreme
ly 10th to give any information re-
lative to the proposed issue of the
additional $l0,000,0O0 of stock.
They said a statement was being
prepared to be sent to each stock
holder, setting forth the: purposes
for which the money would be re-
quired, and that pending its issu-
ance the road would not forestall
it in any way.

He said the money was to be- used
in completing the purchase of the
first mortgage bonds of the Chesa-
peake, Ohio and Southwestern
company, of which the Illinois
Central expected to get full control
in February, 1896.
