Williamsport, Pa, Dec. Io.--In the vault
which he invented and built as safe
guard against premature burial the body of
John M. Purscl was laid to rest yester-
day. .....=..
Never was a more unique burial wit
messed in this part of the country. While
the sorrowing widow and mourners stood
about the quaint wall of stone masonry the
pallbearers slowly placed the coffin in an
iron compartment just large enough to re-
ceive it. The coffin lid was not screwed
down, and Immediately craftsmen COM
menced to place covering of steel over
the opening. This head was bolted and
cemented fast in such a manner that it
could not be removed from the outside
only by means of violent force. Should
the inmate revive, however, be can un-
fasten the door of the marrow house" by
working combination lock on the inner
side and gain his freedom.
Died Of Apoplexy
Mr.. Pursel died of apoplexy Tuesday
morning at the age of 70 years. Neither
his physician nor the members of his FAM
lily entertained doubt that life was ex-
tinct, and yet every prccaution that the
deceased had stipulated in life was OBJ
served to prevent burial alive. The Gus
tomary tests were applied and the body
was carefully watched day and night for
80 hours, but no sign of returning anima-
tion was noticed. Finally, when the coffin

ANTHRACITE MINES
KILL MANY MORE
1T is TWICE AS DANGEROUS TO
WORK IN THEM AS IN THE b.
LUMINOUS COAL FIELDS. -
BY ASSOCIATED pRFss.

Philadelphia, Dec. Io.-Now that the
grievances Of the coal miners in Ponnsyi-
vania are receiving SO much public attef-
ton, it is interesting to read some OF the
statistics bearing on the subject. Accord
ing to the United States Geological Survey,
the following are the figures for. accidents,
fatal and non-fatal, in I8 states and ter
ritories during 1901.
The total number Of lives lost in these i8
states and territories was I467, and the
number of accidents was 3,643. The total
number OF tons of coal mined for each life
lost varied from 4a5,o04 in. Maryland to
Ao,424 in Indian territory. The average
number OF tons mined for each of the 10Y
lives lost was I88,668.
In Pennsylvania the mining of anthracite
coal was twice as fatal as the mining of
bituminous coal. In the anthracite mines
1854 tons of coal cost one life. The
total number Of men killed in these mines
during the year 1901 was 5I3. In the same
period I,a43 men we're injured, a27 wives
were made widows, and 624 children were
left fatheress. The anthracite fields of
Pennsylvania furnished larger number
of killings than any other fields in the
United States. The next highest record
was that of West Virginia, where I34 men
were killed. Coal mining is from it's very
nature a dangerous occupation. How II
compares with other dangerous employ
ments we do not know. 1t is to be hoped
that the investigations Of the present COM
mission appointed by President Roosevelt.
will throw some light on the. general
hygienic features of the miners life and
surroundings.
The mining Of anthracite coal seems to
be more dangerous than the mining of the
bituminous variety This may be due
partly to the depths of the mines and other
pecularities of the work. The state laws
regulating mining are supposed to be well
conceived and we'll executed.

pccted here, will tend to bring about some

The note to Reuters telegram, announc-
ing that Great Britain had sent reply TO

issuing from Caracas to the effect that
President Castro has empowered Minis

Venezuela are regarded in London as
open to question. Any such action on the
part of President Castro would be consid-
cred wholly beside the mark The powers

suited in any form, not even as to the
terms on which arbitration might be ac-
ceptable to the powers"

Mr.. Pursel always dreaded being buried

OF his life to personal investigation.

Two years ago he visited several crema-

PursePs family. Each chamber is shaped
similar to coffin, and is open at the
outer end. A small stack carries all odois
out, and a perfect system of sewerage
provides for the carrying away of moisture.
All the steel heads which cover the COM
partments are fitted with combination
locks of Mr.. Pursel's invention. Should
he or the occupant of any Of the other
chambers return to life the working of
the combination from within woull :. loosen

Mr.. Pursel's body is the first to test
the merits of this novel mausoeum.

Washington, Dec. io.-Secretary Hay
has received partial responses from the
governments of Great Britain, Germany
and Italy respecting the proposal to arbi
trate the Venezuelan difficulties.
Great Britain is favorable to arbitration
with proper safeguards Germany accepts
arbitration in principle but finds multi
tude of small adjustments to be made be-
fore entering into the agreement Italy as
the junior partner of the allies, declares
that she is favorable to arbitration but will
be bound probably by the action of the
senior parties
To secure these results the American
embassies at London, Berlin and Rome
have been working energetically to carry
out the instructions of Secretary Hay to
ascertain how the proposal would be re-
ceived.
AS far as England is concerned, the safe
guards referred to are believed to relate to
the question of guarantee, which is full OF
difficulty. In this connection, as indicated
in these dispatches yesterday some con-
sideration is again being given to the
feasibility of the assumption of response
bility for any award assessed against
Venezuela by responsible private agencies,
but the United States government is de-
termined not to allow itself to be drawn
into the position of a guarantor In this
case for the precedent, once established,
might require the United States to become
