NINE OTHERS ARE BELIEVED To

Chattanooga, Tenn, May PA special
from Dayton, Tenn, says:
AT the Richland mine of the Dayton
Coal and Iron Company, two, miles from
Dayton, this afternoon terrific explosion
of gas, formed by the collection of coal
dust, resulted in the death of twenty-one
men, all white. and most of them mar
ried and with families.
The explosion was caused by what is
known among miners as a blown blast"
1t is the custom of the miners to place
blasts and fire them off at quitting time
each afternoon, leaving the coal thus
thrown down to be loaded and hauled
from the mine the next morning. The
Richland mine is destitute of water and
hence great volumes of fine PARTICLES of
coal dust, invisible to the naked eye, ac-
cumulate at the roof of the mine.
forming a highly infammable gas.
This afternoon at exactly a:sO
o'clock dynamite cartridge was placed
In position In one of the rooms for a blast.
The miners had just started for the mouth
OF the mine. The blast did not explode as
intended but Instead a long flame shot
out of the blast hole and isnited this
accumulation of dust. Instantly terrific
explosion occurred and seethIng mass of
name shot to che mouth of the mine and
extended three hundred feet into the
open air, scorching the leaves from the
nearby trees. There were thirty-four
men in the mine at the time. Four of
these escaped with slight injury. Twenty
one were killed and nine were terribly
burned, most of them fatally. The force
of the explosion caused great masses OF
coal and slate to cave in from the roof OF
mine and many of the Inflated miners
were completely buried. Word quickly
reached Dayton and rescue forces were al
once organized and proceeded to the mine
One by one the blsckened and horribly
dishsured bodies were taken from the
debris and carried to the mouth of the
mine, where they were loaded into a To-
connective and carried to Dayton
The two undertaking establishments at
Dayton were turned Into improvised
niorgues where the mangled bodies were
dressed and prepared for delivery to
their families All OF the merf employed
IN this mine were residents OF Dayton.
The Richland mine is the property of
the Dayton Coal and Iron Company.

A BAD AFFAIR AT MEMPHIS.
One Intoxicated Man Kills Another
in Police station Cell.

Memphis. Tenn, May 27.-Alexander
Peden. a well-known citizen of Pulaski,
Tenn. and brother-in-law of James p.
Oakes. cashier of the Citizens National
Bank of that place. was murdered to-
night in cell of detention at the police
station and N. A. Gillis of Cumby, Hop
kins county, Texas, is under arrest,
charged with the killing. Peden had been
arrested for safekeeping, having imbibed
too freely during the afternoon. Gillis
was also arrested for the same cause and
put in the cell with Peden.
One of the guards. in making the rounds
late tonight, discovered Peden lying on
a cot with his head crushed in. Further
examination showed the man to be dead.
AS no one but Gillis was with Peden, the
former was charged with the killing. Gil
lis, who was intoxicated, says he knows
nothing whatever of the crime, and If he
killed Peden he doubtless did not under
stand what he was doing, as he talked
incoherently. Peden was identified by a
return railroad ticket, TO which he had
affixed his signature. Both men were re-
union visitors.

MAY STRIKE ON SOUTHERN.
Vice President Cannon Refuses De-
mnnds of Machinists

Washington, May 27.-A committee Of
employees from the various machine shops
on the Southern Railway at points be-
tween here and Birmingham, Louisville
and st. Louis. appointed to present GER
tain demands regarding the institution
of a nine-hour day, increased wages. reg
ulations as to the number of apprentices
employed, ETC., were in session through
out to-day with Vice President and Gen
erdl Manager Cannon OF the Southern.
Each Of the delegates described the con-
ditions in his shop. and the alleged neces-
sity for the change asked.
The men stated later that the confer
ence was entirely unsatisfactory, and
that Mr.. Cannon had refused TO consider
any of their propositions. Mr. Cannon
said that the demands involved over 25
per cent. increase In pay for machinists
and all other shop employees, which was
beyond reason. He said 30 per cent. OF
the machinists on the system did not con-
template an ultimatum, and that he did
not look for a general strike. The men
win report back to their lodge the reply
given them.

M'LAURIN'S HEALTH POOR.
Not Strong Enough TO Make an Ac-
tive Summer Campaign.


Columbia, S, C.. May Ex-senator Nc
Laurin will probably make ON earnest pro-
test against having the campaign in Au-
gust, as suggested by State Chairman
Jones. His purpose in having the resig-
nations 20 take effect in September, was
to have a fall campaign. He says that
his health is such that he cannot under
take canvass of the state during the
hot months without taking grave risks.
1t is not known how many friends Nc
Laurin has on the Executive Committee.
The state Chairman is strongly opposed
to him. and had determined some time
ago to make the race against McLaurin
next year This is Col. Jones first quest
of office. He was elected chairman OF
the dispensary board some years ago. but
resigned as soon as he could get out or
it. He Is the cashier of the Carolina Ma
tionai Bank owning large block or
the stock, and was colonel of the Second
South Carolina Volunteers-the regiment
that went to Cuba.
Lawyer d. s. Henderson of Aiken. one
of those who will be in the race, is per-
haps the most eloquent and graceful pup
lic speaker in the state. He has been
a mild conservative. Col. George john
stone, another conservative and a good
debater win do all within his power
to prevent Congressman Latimer going TO
the Senate. Col Johnstone made good
congressman and no man enjoyed that Of
flee more than he; when he attained that
ambition was satisfied. but he was not
to enjoy 1t long. In 1892, Latimer, sup
ported by Populists and Alliancemen, was
swept into office and has ever since re-
tanned it.

Lincoln. Neb., May H,-William Jen-
nings Bryan to-day gave out ftstement
on the resignation of Senators McLsrurln
and Tlllman, which he says he regards as
the political event or last week.
Mr.. Bryan said;
ut is an honorable course for the sem
ators TO pursue and beneficial to the
state. At present South Carolina vir-
tually has no voice In the sediment of
public questions, as the vote of one GEM
ator kills the vote of the other. Senator
Tilman has just been reelected and thus
risks the loss of the longer term. but
Senator McLaurin really sacrifices more,
because he has less chance to win in the
primary"
Mr.. Bryan added that 1t was hardly
necessary to say that he hoped and ex-
pected to see Senator Tilman win a
sweeping victory, because he represents
the man, while Senator McLiurin repre-
sents the dollar. The vote viii show
whether the plutocratic idea is making
any headway in the South"

MAKE 1T A PRESENT TO CHINA.
America Had Rather DO This Than
Have Customs Duties Raised.


Have Customs Duties Raised.
Pekin, May 27.-It seems probable that
Great Brtaln's proposition limiting the
indemnity to be demanded from China
to 450,OO0000 taels will be agreed to by
the end of the week. United States Spe-
cial Commissioner Rockhill thinks this
may be considered an American victory.
Though his proposition limiting indemnity
to $40 100000 taels was not accepted, still
IL was the cause of the other Powers con-
sidering the idea. The only point likely
to cause further delay in a decision by
all the Powers except America is that
regarding the raising of the foreign GUS
toms of per cent.
Mr. Rockhill told the ministers at re-
cent meeting that rather than take this
step America would relinquish all claims
to indemnity and even make a money
present to China, as American CONNER
cial interests would suffer far more there
by than those of any other Power, with
possibly one exception.
