HAS HER SEALSKIN TAGGED.
Mrs. J. p. Morgan the First to Comply
with the New Law.

NEW YORK, Jan S-Mrs. J. Pierpont
Morgan, jr., is the first woman to comply
with the new law which says that all seal
skins brought into this country must bear
evidence that they were not secured in
Alaskan waters since sealing was forbidden
there. Mrs. Morgan is going abroad next
week. and she has some sealskin garments
which she intends to take with her. She
might have trouble in bringing them back,
so she has made application to the collector
of customs for a certificate for her s4cks.
To enable this certificate to be granted
Mrs Morgan sent her sealskins 20 the col
1ectOrs office, where they were examined
then numbers were entered in the records
and certificate issued. Under the new law
any Sealskin garment made of skins which
cannot be proved to have been taken in wa
ters outside of the jurisdiction of the United
States is liable TO seizure and destruction

MYERs's TACTICS.
scheme by Which 1T Is Hoped to Com
mass Mr.. Hanna's Defeat.

Columbus Special to st. Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat.
Here is a sample of the desperate tactics
which the Hanna opposition propose using
if necessary to accomplish their end. Talk
ing with a friend about the time the SEN
atorial contest began to get most serious,
Allen o. Myers said:
Look out for something sensational next
Tuesday We will furnish something TO
astound the whole country. Don't you be
surprised if, when the roll is called for the
first ballot for senator In the separate
houses one of the members walks down
the center aisle with a roll of greenbacks
in his hand and says, Here is $1,000 that
was given TO me by one of Mark Hanna's
agents to cast my vote for him. will do
nate ii for charitable purposes, and vote
against the man who tried to buy me-.
The intent of such a dramatic proceed
ing is plain, of course, for declaration of
that kind made on the floor of the House,
in the tense strain of a. ballot, would be
likely to cause q stampede against Mr.
Hanna If the Republican members were not
informed of it beforehand and thus pro-
tected That would be worth many times
5000 10 the combine, and. naturally. would
be considered cheap at the price. Publica-
ton Cf the Myers scheme will rob 1t OF its
danger.

MOTOR WOMAN DISMISSED.
Mrs. Briefly Loses Her Job, but Says
She VIII Get Another.

MIDDLETOWN, n. Y, Jan S-The serv-
ices of Mrs. Mabel Brierly as motor woman
on the electric road were dispensed with
yesterday morning by Superintendent Ur-
ban. One reason which led the, superintend-
ent to take this step was the fact that Mrs
Brierlys husband Charles Briefly, was here
yesterday vainly endeavoring to induce his
wife TO accompany him back to their home
In Matamoras, Pa. The superintendent
said, too. the woman's presence on the road
was giving it too much improbable no.
tofiety and that he does not expect to ex-
gerlment with any more motor women. Mrs
BHerly was much depressed, but declared
sne would go 10 Port Jervis and get po-
sltlon on the electric road there, as she was
determined 10 make il a life business in
spite OF leers and taunts. The conductors

woman say that she lacked GOODNESS.

no one to take care of them. Many more

six Miners Entombea. !.

PITTSBURG, Kan, Jan. 6. = Six miners
narrowly escaped death by an explosion
probably of dust or gas, at $40 o'clock
this evening, in shaft No. Of the Mount
Carmel Coal Company's mine, six and a
half miles south of here, near Chicopee.
The explosion occurred at shot-firing time,
when, so far as known, but seven or eight
men We're in the shaft, five of these being
shot flrerS and the others drivers The ex-
plosion, which was accompanied by loud
report, wrecked the blacksmith shop and
other buildings at the surface, and started
a fire in the timbering. However, the fans
were quickly started and the fire was ex-
tinguished. The entombed men are Joe Sc
tar, Jim Sommerman, John Bossing, Anton
Weimberger, Anton Gerwitz and Casper
Rartolio
At midnight the rescue party had reached
four of the entombed men. None of them
had been seriously injured, and the starting
of the fans soon after the explosion had
prevented suffocation. Bossing and Weis-
burger had not been reached at midnight.

morning. The conductor and six negro
workmen were badly, but not fatally, in

TOWBOAT DESTROYED BY AN EX-
PLOSION AND CREW MANGLED.
six People Killed and Seven Injured,
Three Probably FataIly-Railway
and Other Casualties.

PITTSBURG, Jan. S-The tow boat
Percy Kelsey owned by w. H. Browns
Sons. of this city, blew up while going
down the Ohio river, near Glenfield, Pa.
about IL o'clock this morning. Six of the
crew were killed and seven injured, some
of whom will die The dead are:
MILTON WOODS, pilot, Allegheny City,
seventy years Old
THOMAS FLINN, second engineer.
JOSEPH LALLEY, second mate.
LEE WEBSTER, fireman.
LEE. BECHTOLD, fireman, and another
fireman are still missing.
The injured are:
LESLIE JONES, captain, badly burned
and hurt about body; condition serious.
PERCY F. WOODS apprentice pilot,
aged twenty-five years; will probably die.
DAVID WALKER, one of the crew, Sc

HARRY HANNA. deck hand, not dam
gerously.
HUGH CLOSE, iron worker, not of the
crew, will die.
WILLIAM ALEXANDER, Mount Wash
ington, deck hand, skull crushed and
burned; will die.
The boat was commanded by Captain
Leslie Jones, of Shoustown, Pa, and the
crew was made up of two pilots, two ergi-
neers, two mates, two firemen, a chamber
maid cook and the deck hands-in all
about twelve persons. Several other people
were on the boat. The Kelsey left Pitts
burg about o'clock this morning for Gin
cinnati, with a tow consisting of seven
barges and two flats of COAL and every
thing was apparently all right till the ex-
plosion took place, when the boat was lit
tered and lost. The hull sunk almost i'm
mediately, and the shattered portions of the
upper works hoated down the river. The ex-
plosion was most terrific and was heard
for miles. Hundreds of persons ran to the
river on hearing the noise, and an awful
sight met their gaze. Bodies were floating
down the river. and the debris was scat
tered far and wide. but no live person was
seen. A few minutes later Captain Jones
and three others were picked up alive but
badly injured, and one body floated ashore
near Neville island. The injured were re-
moved to Captain Groves residence, on
Neville island, where everything possible
was done to alleviate their SuiferingS.
When the boat blew up Pilot Woods was
asleep in the pilot house, only a few feet
from Captain Jones. Others of the crew
We're also asleep. The pilot was blown
high in the air. and fell right where a few
minutes before the pilot house stood. He
was dead when found, and pitiable sight
was MS sun, Olliy d lew leel away, IN
jured very badly He was pleading to help
his father. Captain Leslie Jones was in
jured by a bad cut in the head and his
back badly sprained. The body of the fire
man was blown ashore near where the ac-
cident occurred. Only three of the crew
escaped uninjured.
1t is not known at present what caused
the explosion. The boats boilers were re-
Gently tested and found to be in good con-
dition and the boat was considered one of
the best and stanchest on the river. 1t
was valued at $4,000.
