SHORT IN HIS ACCOUNTS

lie tIaims That the Former postmas ter

Removed.

Port Angeles, Wash. Feb. 20.-Depu-
ty Postmaster John Brown, Jr., is short
$1,000 in his accounts. Postoffice Inspec-
tor ]. o. f. Gordon is engaged in check
ing up the accounts, and the result of
his investigation may make a slight
change in the figures. Complaint has
been filed before United States Commits
sioner Harry e. Ludden, charging
Brown with embezzlement, and he is
now under surveillance.
He told a reporter today that he had
been short in his accounts with the gov
eminent for two years. He acted as
deputy postmaster during the term of
j. S. Penn, and when at the beginning
of President Cleveland's term Major
Hooker was made postmaster, Brown
was continued as deputy. 1t is said
that the greater portion of the shortage
occurred during PENIS term. Brown
claims that ex-Postmaster Penn was
implicated in the shortage, and when
he went out of office left him Brown
to cover it up. Brown says he has been
classifying his books from week to week
for the last two years, or ever since
the time he took office under the pres
ent incumbent.

Berlin, Feb. 20.-The most interesting
feature of the celebration of the ami
versary of Luther's death in the Ger
man empire this year was the universal
wish to preserve the house in which he

in 1913. 1t is a two-story affair, with
two rows of windows, and the broad
doorway arching like a castle gate, af-
ter the style of architecture of those
days. Luther, unlike other great men,
was faithful to the place of his birth.
Great distinction did not make him
ashamed of the humble dwelling where
he first saw the light After the stormy
battles of his life, that are all stirring
the world, he was glad to wander back
to the old town like a child that creeps
back to it's mothers bosom, and there

noon today for the purpose of flooding
the slope and chambers OF the mine
with air and of driving out, If possible,
the gases and menacing dangers that
remained after yesterdays explosion.
All last night shifts of men, working
two hours, were kept employed putting
UP an air fan in the place Of the two de-
stroyed. simultaneously crews of five
to 10 men were sent into the death trap
by way Of the main slope and entrance
and the air passage to work their way,
IL possible, to where the bodies of the
dead men were. This action was accom-
panied by the most imminent peril ow-
ing to the black damp with which the
mine was filled. Fully 20 men were car
ried to the outer air overcome by the
noxious gases.
At noon today 500 feet OF the main
slope had been penetrated and three
bodies brought out.
The first body found was that of Abel
Dore, boy. The second was that of
| Joe Dore, brother of Abel, and the third
was that Of Frank Simonsi, a carpenter
brought out at 2:30 this morning AS
the work goes on It becomes certain
that the mine has not caught fire.
John French is today the center OF
curiosity of a curious throng, He is a
mine carpenter who came out of the
Vulcan mine yesterday 20 minutes be-
fore the explosion. The gases became
so thick his eyes gave out and he was
Obliged to quit work. Mine Inspector
Griffith, who Is now on the ground, says

New York, Feb. 20.-After stoppage
of three months, ordered by Horace Por-
ter, president of the Grant Monument
Association, the work of building the
great mausoleum on Riverside drive

place until April q of next year.
When work is resumed, the masons
will recommence laying the stone of the
circular portion of the tomb, the base
and lower parts having been entirely
finished some time ago. The frame
work for the great dome is in place,
and the great blocks of granite which
have been quarried and trimmed will be
brought on next week from quarries
in North Jay, Maine. After the gran
lite has been set, the entire tomb is to
be lined with marble stained glass win
dows put in and the interior artistically
decorated
There is enough money in the treas
ury of the association to pay all pros
peetive and contingent bills, so that
when the finishing touches have been
given to the great monument the or
ganization will not be a single dollar
