FOUR MINERS DEAD.
Little Hope for the -Four Others Yet
tEntombed.

REDDING. Gal, March 1-Of the eight
miners imprisoned by yesterdays cave-in
in the Iron Mountain mine, and who were
rescued, four have died from their in
juries. Hope bf resculng the remaining
four alive has been abandoned. The four
dead are: David e. Ross, A Cavanaugh,
III. Castiliien, Alfred Oates The four
still entombed are: J. McBroem, S. CalIy-
op. A. Van Buren,, J. A. Oates. While
their rescue is being rapidly pushed, II
is without expectation of finding them
a4ive. They have been imprisoned ever
forty hours, and even if uninjured by
the falling rock have undoubtedly died
for want OF air.

WANTS TO REBUILD
Downtown SEWERS.
Commissioner Hermann Says New
System Is Necessary and
Gives His Reasons.

Sewer Commissioner Hermann, prepara-
tory to advocating the reconstruction of
sewers in the business section OF the city.
is at work upon comprehensive plans with
which he expects to demonstrate the neces-
sity of a radical change, not only from a
sanitary view. but also from q financial
standpoint.
Many new district sewers have been built
by private contract. through the energy OF
progressive citizens and mercantile con-
Germs. and Mr.. Hermann believes hat these
people nave fostered public improvements
at much extra expense and at continual
loss.
AS a means OF inauguratiHg a movement
in favor of sewer reconstruction in the
heart OF the city. a petition Is being cfrcu-
lated BY property owners of the tier Of
three blocks between Ninth. Twelfth.
Chestnut and Pine streets. to call upon the
Beard of Public improvements to introduce
an ordinance in the Municipal Assembly
authorizing the reconstruction CT the dis
trict sewers. Mr.. Hermann believes that
one example Of the improved sewers will iu-
cline business men to demand better sewers
all over the business district.
The present sewers in the downtown sec
ton are too superficial. Mr.. Hermann
states. being only six feet deep in many
Instances. whereas they should be twenty
feet deep. to drain the large buildings ade-
qCately. He also states that they are too
small for modern Use and are not at all
adapted to the purposes for which they are
intended. Under existing circumstances
those persons who construct sewers by pri-
vate contract are obliged to pay large
prices for the work. In many cases five
tines more than would have to be paid if
the work were extensive and were in prog
ress by united effort at a common expense.
Now the owners of private sewers must
