Remains of Mine Disasters Victims
Recovered.

Bocton, February 23.-(Special.) - Last
miners found the body of Joe Carpenter,
the last negro who was a victim of Mon
day nights disaster. He was brought out
and carried to the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad companys office and there
dressed. He was burned In horrible
manner, and but for the fact that he was
known to have been in the mine at the time
of the explosion, could not have been recog-
nized.
The officials are pushing the work of re-
construction in the demo-. shed district as
rapidly as possible, and il is now believed
That the mine will be in a condition for op-
Grafton by the first of next week.
R. L. and w. w. Davenport the two
white men killed by the explosion, were
buried at the cemetery yesterday morning.

latter place this afternoon at o'clock.
The bride is a charming young lady with
most affable manners, and the groom Is a
popular young Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad company conductor. Both of the
contracting parties have hosts of friends
who Join in wishing them long, happy and
prosperous life.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
M. T. Davis, Prisoner at the County
JAIL Took Morphine.

M T. Davis, white man about 80 years
of age, attempted to commit suicide in the
county jail Wednesday afternoon by the
morphine route, but was saved by the time
ly efforts of DR.. Robt. Berry, who was has
tily summoned to attend him.
Davis was arrested at Ensley early in the
afternoon by Deputy Sheriff L. C. Price on
a charge of violating the revenue laws,
based on the allegation of the officers that
he conducted blind tiger" at that place.
He was greatly agitated over his arrest,
but came to town with the deputy, accom-
panied by friend who secured blank
bond which he made an effort to have
signed. Davis was searched, but nothing
in the shape of drug was found on his
person. AS he was turned into the jail cor
ridor he is said to have made some remark
to the stevedore about never coming out
again." but nothing was thought of the
threat until several hours after, when
Davis was found stretched out in the cor
ridor in a heavy stupor. 1t was at first
thought he had been drinking, but an effort
to arouse him proved futile. He was breath
ing heavily, and an alarm was at once
given. Deputy Price was hastily dispatch
ed for a physician and returned in a few
minutes with DR.. Berry, who at once set to
work to save the mans life. A small pack
age marked ''morphine-poison." which had
evidently been secreted about his person,
was found, which confirmed the theory that
the man had attempted suicide. DR.. Ber-
ry, with the aid of the jail officials, went to
work with will, and with the aid of
physics and the stomach pump, succeeded
in reviving the man after several hours.
Davis complained of being sick, but refused
to talk about his rash act.
The drug was purchased from store In
Ensley as was shown by the label

NO CHANGE In
THE SITUATION
Commissioners "Of Guard"
Yesterday Afternoon.
WILL STAND THEIR GROUND
IfNew Board Attempts to Take Posses
sion VIII Institute Quo Warranto
Proceedings-Mr. Earle Back from
Montgomery with Little to Say

There is no apparent change In the coun-
ty commissioners situation, except per-
haps a more confident air on the part of
the commissioners themselves, who yes
terday left the Office to itself, protected
only by the spring lock which was recently
placed on the door. 1t was suggested that
there might be a spring gun attachment,
but the failure of the new board of reve-
nue. to attempt a forcible possession gave
no opportunity to verify the statement.
The commissioners are firm in their de-
termination to stand their ground, and it
is said have engaged Head & Wood, the
well-known attorneys, to carry the fight
to the highest courts il necessary. They
are transacting the business of the county
as usual and have many callers among
their friends, who are tagging them on"
In the stand they have taken.
AS long as the board of revenue does not
qualify and attempt to take possession of
the Office the situation will remain I'M
changed. But as soon as this is done 1t IS
stated that the commissioners will at once
institute quo warranto proceedings, which
will soon bring the matter to crisis.
Such proceedings will serve as an injunc-
ton to both sides, but will be given an
immediate hearing by the courts.
Mr.. Earie's Return
President Earle of the board of revenue
returned from Montgomery at noon yes
terday, but refused to discuss the situa-
ton with a reporter further than to say
that the board had not qualified nor had
he accepted the presidency.
The complications that will naturally
arise from the contentious of two boards
to the same office will greatly affect the
affairs of the county and will practically
stop the payment of all vouchers which
are required to be drawn by the commits
sioners or the board of revenue.
The legal phases of the situation is the
topic of conversation among lawyers, and
many opinions that the act abolishing the
old board and creating the new one is UNI
constitutional are being expressed.
Just what today will bring forth cannot
be forecast. but it IS evident that some
thing will have to be done, but now, when
or what, deponent sayeth not
