Knoxville, Tenn, May ia Senu-
mel special says: The Fraterville ana
Thistle coal mines at Coal Creek ex-
ploded this morning. Only one man
escaped and he was blown out of the
mine. About 800 men were at work IN
the mines. Flames are now issuing
from the mouths and vent holes.
Knoxville, May 19.-Superintendent
Camp, of the Thistle, gave out state
ment estimating the killed in ooth
mines at l5O. None has been rescued.
Two rescuing parties started into the
mines as soon as possible. The Thistle
party was unable to make any headway
whatsoever as the gas stified them. The
Fraterville party went a considerable
distance into that mine, but encoun-
tered a heavy fall of slate, which cut on
further progress until the obstacle was
removed. The intense heat indicates tue
mine is on fire. There is no question
but that the Thistle miners suffered IN
the diseaster.
The Fraterville coal mine is located
in Anderson county, Tenn. 1t is ownei
by the Coal Creek Company, of which
Major e. C. Camp, of this city, is pres
ident and general manager. 1t is the
Oldest mine in the Coal Creek district,
and has always been considered one OF
the safest mines in that belt.
AT one thirty, one man was taken
from the Fraterville mine. He was
an unrecognizable mass of flesh.
Four dead have been taken from the
mine, horribly 1nutilated. William
Morgan who was blown out of the
mine will die Until further inves-
tigation it can not be determined how
many men were in the mine, but there
were probably between two hundre.
and three hundred miners killed.

Iowa City, May 19.-The Iowa ath-
letic management is now being worried
with the selection of a general manager
to succeed Fred c. McCutcheon, who
has held the Office for three years and
who no longer desires it, as he has gone
into business at Holstein, Ia. Nc
Cutcheon has weathered many storms
during his three years as manager and
it is now conceded that there is little
likelihood of securing another man who
will fill his place with the ability and
success with which he has filled it. All
the candidates for the position are re-
ceptive candidates. None of them
have come out for an open campaign
for the place and 1t is probable that
none will. Those who have been con-
suited with by President Wilcox Of the
board of athletic control are Donald
McClain of Iowa City, assistant man
ager to Manager McCutcheon for the
past two years, Elmer Hull, of Iowa
City, Robert Bannister of Ottumwa
and Earl Kenyon of Onawa. All four
are members of different fraternities at
the University. McClain is a Beta
Theta Pi, Hull Phi Delta Theta, Ken
yon Phi Kappa Psi and Bannister a

six corpses scarcely cold. There was
but one living witness to the tragedy,
a helpless infant. Austin went to the
Wilkinson house Friday night and pro-
posed marriage to Abetha Mccullough.
He was rejected. Vowing he would
marry her, he hurried to this city and
procured on Saturday a marriage IL
cense. He went to the churce on Sat
urday night and told every orle he met
he was to be married that night. About
3 o'clock this morning several pistol
shots were heard, but no one Went to
Investigate until, when Wilkinson
failed to show up at a neighbor's house.

crop of potatoes, Keller, farm hand,
was sent to the Wilkinson house, and
he found the whole family murdered
and Austin with a bullet hole in his
breast and revolver clutched in his
hand. Word of the tragedy was
brought to this city on the morning
train and the sheriff and coroner have
gone to the scene of the tragedy. An
infant who had been unharmed was

| The capital city of Iowa is in gala
attire in honor of the members OF the
G. A. r. and kindred organizations who
are already gathering in numbers in the
city to attend encampments, camptires,
reunions and regimental meetings. Des
Moines doesn't go very much on deco
rative display as rule, but in this in
stance has done fairly well, and the old
soldiers will be reminded at every turn
that the city recognizes the fact that
they are here. All things seem to be
combining to make this an event long
to be remembered. The program as
arranged appears to be excellent, the
weather promises well, notable persons
are to be here, the advance locating OF
visitors in rooms indicates that the at
tendance will be unusually large, and
lit is certain that the local committees
cf the two big G. A. r. posts have done
everything possible TO guarantee super
lative success. Aside from the fact that
Des Moines is most accessible to the
old soldiers and place where visitors
like to come, there is much In the capi-
tai city that will interest the veterans.
n'he state house itself is of some inter-
est to them. The department head
quarters are assigned to a small room
in the basement, but Adjutant Newman
has made it attractive with the por-
traits of the past department comman-
ders and others. To the collection has
Just been added the portraits of Com
mander Metzgar, two-thirds length
portrait, and very striking profile Of
the head of General Josiah Given. The

have been abundantly draped In the
upper corridors are to be seen the tat
tered battlefags of the Iowa regiments
carefully preserved. In the office of the
adjutant general is to be found the rec
ords of the Iowa regiments in the vari-
Gus wars, all carefully preserved. Just
across the street from the capitol is the
historical building, where the old SOL
diers may find things to interest them.
The portrait gallery is reminiscent of
war days-Kirkwood, Dodge, Stone an<
scores of others of the period of and
before the war. In the famous Aldrich
collection may be seen the portraits and
autographs of men famous in American
warfare. Here, also, are the army COM
missions and other valuable papers OF
many of the Iowa soldiers, and many
documents relating to the war period.
Old soldiers might be interested in such
a curiosity, for instance as the diary OF
a soldier of the revolution which is
carefully preserved there, for it indi
Gates the manner of conducting affairs
in the army led by General Washing

building is Of interest to the soldiers,
