IN a BURNING NINE.
Four Men EntOmed and PrOba Ill y
SunOcated by Deadly Gases.

HOUGHTON, Mich, Feb. 2.-Four men
are entombed in the North Tamarack mine,
which caught fire to-day, and small hopes
are entertained for their escape 1t is
thought probable that all are already dead
from breathing the confined gases. The
missing men are: Peter Limpea, William
Limpea. William Tomaczhoski and Antonio
Tomaczhoski. How the fire originated is II
mystery. When the alarm was first given
the men working the ninth level and
above it made their way to the skips, while
those below that level escaped to No. shaft
and came to the surface that way. When
the fire broke out four men were working
in the sixth level. and all but two escaped.
Peter Limpea and his twenty-year-old son
William. AT the eighth level eight men
were working, all escaping but William
Tomaczhoski and his siXteen-year-old son
Antonio. They could easily have escaped
with the others, but instead of taking the
skip they went back for their dinner pals
This was the last seen of them.
The damage TO the shaft cannot be great
as IL is wet, and as there is not much ,ma-
terial TO burn the fire cannot last long. Cap
tain Parnall thinks it is out now. He says
il is possible the men may be rescued alive.
as compressed air is being constantly sent
down. and if those entombed open the valve
and let the air into the leval they can live
without doubt until morning. Fully 1000
/ people visited the shaft this afternoon,
among them relatives of the men en-

PREMIER LAURIER'S POLICY.
Better Trade Relations with the
United States but No Annexation.

TORONTO. Ontario. Feb. AT Oreila,
Ontario. last night. Premier Laurier, for
the first time definitely stated the present
governments platform 20 be better trade
relations with the United States and ex-
pressed his willingness TO stand OF fall with
it. He said that whenever this was spoken
of there was always a cry of treason"
from the Conservatives, but nevertheless
il would be the governments policy They
were not going to approach their neighbors
to the south in cringing manner. asking
for favors. as annexationists, but as Ca
adams and British subjects looking for
friendly trade relations. His instructions TO
any committee which he might send would
be to approach the American government
i'm that spirit, but, said he, 'if they ex-
pect or hope for us to go back on old Eng
land. then we will have TO close all neGo-
tiationS.
In reference to the alien labor law. he
thought it unworthy of any civilized ma
tion and he hoped 10 see the United States
do away with il this year, but instead he
found that they were making IL even strict
err so that now il was almost impossible
for a Canadian TO obtain work there. He
would make overtures TO the United States
to have that law repealed. and if they re-
fused then. and only then. would ne be i'm
favor of putting the word foe" in our own
statutes.
