TEN lives bLOIT[D OUT.
Results of the Explosion in Mine
No. 9, of the Mildly & Dow
Mining Co., at Dow, l. 7.
The MINE NOT SERIOUSLY DAMAGED.
None of the Bodies of the Victims
Having Been burned, the Infer
ence is that Their Death was
Due to Afterdamp-Neaily All
Were Men of Family.

South McAlester,I. T., Jan. 14.-Ten
miners lost their lives in the eXplo-
sion, Monday evening, in mine No. o
of the Milby d Dow Mining Co., at
Dow, l. T. The names of the dead
are:
Jack Mccoy, W. F. Keith, B. F. Far
hurst, T.. NJ. Prichard, Bert Gattlin,
Joe Bemmas, Thomas Blua, John
Blua, NJ. Brow, John Beatal.
None Left to Tell the story.
The ten men who lost their lives
were the only persons in the pit, and
none was left to tell the story. All
the bodies were recovered, and as
nore was burned, the conclusion is
that death was due to afterdamp.
The explosion did not injure the
shaft, which was a new one and the
fire that followed was put out be-
fore it did much damage.
The sound of the explosion was
heard plainly above ground and res
cuers were at work promptly. The
explosion occurred at a depth of 24O
feet. The machinery was not injured
by the explosion and miners work
ing at the mouth of the pit descend
ed as soon as it was safe.
They Might Have Escaped.
The condition OF the mine indicated
that the men might, had presence OF
mind been exercised, made their es'
cape. The bodies were found within
a comparatively small radius. The
fire was put out before it had reached
any of them and the last nan wa;
brought to the surface before mid
night.
The victims had been in the EN-
ploye of the company for some tim'
and most of them were men of fam
lily.
The Owners of the Mine.
The Milby & Dow Mining Co.
which owns the shaft, is n of tn
heaviest operators in the Choctay
nation. The principal stakeholder
are A. Dow, of Houston, Tex, an
John Milby, of Dallas, Tex. The.
operate mines at Dow, Gowen an
Hartshorne. Mine No. 9, at which tn
explosion occurred, had not yet bee
thoroughly opened, and it had no fir
inspector. Experienced mining me
marvel that the gas should have az
l cumulated in sufficient quantity in
new mine to cause such a disastrou
explosion.

And can the Democracy get any sat

RISKS HIS LIFE FOR A THEORY
French Doctor lnoculases Himself With
tuberculosis Virus.

PARIS, June 19-Dr. Gernault
of this city, in order to strength
en- his claim that it is possible
for human beings to contract dis
eases from cattle, has inoculated
himself with consumption matter
taken from diseased COW that
had been seized by the health
authorities and ordered destroy
ed.
DIR. Gernault attracted atten-
ton at the London tuberculosis
congress last year by challeng-
ing Professor Koch's announce
ment that it was impossible for
human beings to become inocu-
lated from the virus of cattle.
He went to Berlin and offered
to make a practical test of his
theory, but the offer was not ac-
cepted. Since then the doctor
has been making series of prac-
tical tests. He says he is con-
WINGED Professor Koch is mistak-
en- and accuses him of deceiving
the public.
The doctor does not expect re-
suits for two or three weeks.
The disease may then manifest
itself in the form of local affec-
ton and thence spread to the
lungs Out of ten known cases
of slaughter men who were acct
dentally contaminated three have
died and the health of the others
was shattered. If the disease
declares itself. DIR. Gernault will
be treated by DR.. Theodore Smith
of Boston, Mass. who has been
exposed TO the dangers of the
contagion of bovine tuberculosis.

Famine in Korea.

FIT. WAYNE, Ind, June 80
The Rev. S. A. Moffett, who re-
recently returned from the
Orient, accompanied by his wife,
where he served as Missionary
for twelve years, speaking of the
famine in Korea, and the report
ed distress of the people, says:
1.-The facts are partially true,
but the deductions are not. There
is plenty of grain in the country
this year.
Shortly before l left Korea
we considered the famine ques-
ton, and took up a subscription
in our chnrch at Pin Fan, which
has eleven hundred native Kor-
cans on the roll. One of the mis-
sionaries was sent through the
famine district, but he did not
find it Unnecessary to use the money,
and it is still there.
1.-THE exaggerated reports of
famine come from the most part
from the efforts of the native
governors to convince the gener-
al government that taxes for
their district ought to be remit
ted on account of the destitute
condition of the people. If the
governors succeed in getting a
portion of the tax RENTED, they
will collect Them in full and
pocket the remainder.
DR.. Moffett regards theChinese
as the greatest people in the
Orient, outclassing the Japanese.
The popular notion that the Jap
anese are superior, he attributes
to the fact that the poorest class
of Chinese come to the United
States, while the Japanese who
seek. these shores belong to the
best society.

Peril to the Union is Seen in the Proposed
Miners Convention.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, June 81
Men who claim to know the feel
ing in the soft coal region say
the bituminous workers in Ohio,
Indiana. Illinois, Iowa and Penn.
sylvania will oppose the request
to strike and aid anthracite
workers, and the half organized
districts of Michigan, Kentucky,
West Virginia and Virginia.
The organized miners have an
interstate wage agreement, which
is satisfactory, which it took
many years to win. They would
also violate the moral obligation
to keep their contracts, and they
would. if defeated, have TO begin
over again the work of years.
The operators will consider a
strike as violating the contracts,
and, if beaten, the soft coal men
would have to return to work
under any condition the operat-
ors might impose.
There is, however, despite the
opposition of the five central
states with their 1876, 453 thor.
oughly organized workers, COM
handing I, 346 votes, a sufficient
number of votes, 1,400, in the
anthracite district alone to over
come their combined strength,
while the soft coal states which
are now on strike, if but half or
ganized, will furnish $50 votes.
Altogether the states at present
on strike can enter the conven-
ton with a close majority if they
instruct solidly for strike.
This has evidently prevented
President Mitchell from calling
the convention during the five
weeks he has held the requests;
it is why a month is allowed in
which to do preliminary work
which two weeks could accom-
plish.
Mitchell wants a strike; this is
said on good authority, for APP
parently it is the only means now
to prevent a defeat in this re.
gion, in the Virginias, Michigan
and Kentucky, but he is afraid
of a split in the union.
A revolt headed by one of the
biggest officers under Mitchell is
not improbable The strike Or
der would be his weapon and he
would sweep the anti-strike
states away from the United
mine workers into a bituminous
workers union, retaining the
present work and wages.
The organized districts of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, In
diana and Iowa produce SO, 769, :
925 tons of coal year, while the
non union districts of PennsyI-
vania, Kentucky, West Virginia
and Virginia mine "a, 1921 900
tons yearly. This amount could
be placed in the anthracite mar
kets. The result would be the
humiliation of the strike and the
downfall of Mitchell, SO opera
tors here believe.
