labor shall nos be employed fof lsas

yesterday. In an opinion written
BY Judge Douling it was held that
the law iuterferes with tie freedom
Of the contract, ane that the isgisls-
tire can no more hx the price OF
labor than il can the price Of

suit Of a laborer named Frank

court, sued the Varney siecneai
company for twenty oenis an houT-
The company refused 70 pay more
than x cents an hour.
'sNo sufficient reason has been
assigned why the wages Of the un-
skilled laborer should be fixed b

value, and that all other laoorsr'

SEVEN MEN MISSING
A Fire Damp Explosion In the Hostetter
Mine

Latrobe Pa. Feb. 2S.-The Hostetter,
Connellsville, Coke company's mine near
here was the scene Of fire damp explo
sion yesterday in which 1t is thought seven
men lost their lives. Their names are:
Michael Flack, 40 years Of age; Michael Flack,
Jr - years Of age William r. o, Besser &c
as: Charles R. Henry. %: John Penseric. 16.
The cause of the explosion Is a mystery.
1t occurred In what is known as number
Z left fiat entry which is near the eastern
end of the mine and about two miles from
the main entry Most of the force of min
ers at work in the vicinity of the
entry in which the explosion occurred.
Hopes are entertained that the men may
still be living and three rescuing parties
have made efforts to reach them.
The mine was owned by Pittsburgers
and the loss will be about $4,000 from
flooding.
Later-The last rescuing party brought
out Michael F'lack ST.. Michael Flack, Jr.,
William Besser Charles r. Barnick, John
Penzerine, John Gal5kis and Steve Hooduk
They were all still living and after an
hours work the physicians brought them
to. Only two men. whose names are not
known are believed to be still in the mine
and it is thought they dead
The rescued miners were unable to give
any information regarding the explosion
Superintendent Marshall states that locked
lamps were used throughout both mines
These were locked before being given tic
the men and his theory is that the ex-
plosion was caused by a spark from some
hard substance by q. pick or by spontanc-
Gus combustion. The fire is raging fercey
although batteries and embankments have
been erected.
