HUNDREDS OF LIVES LOST
Explosion OF Fire Damp Supposed TIC
Have Killed 234 Men.

Hanna, Wyo., July An explosion
of fire damp in Mine No. l, of the I'm
ion Pacific Coal company snuffcd ont
the lives of PA men, injuring scores OF
others, and caused the destruction of II
vast amount of property. The mine
was not fred, as stated in the early
dispatches, but the explosion was ter
rife and completely shattered the tim
bcrs of the main shaft and numerous
entrances, filled the workings with
debris and those of the miners that
we're not killed outright by the explo-
sion were buried alive. The explosion
was heard for many miles around, aud
attracted people from the adjoining
settlements. Huge timbers and rail
road iron were hurled from the mouth
of the shaft distance of two and three
hundred feet.
Two hundred and eighty-two men
went down in the mine at o'clock and
up to late hour only As have been
accounted for.
Rescuers were unable to penetrate
further into the mine until additional
openings had been made to permit
fresh air to reach the lower levels, and
clear away the foul gases.

TERRIFIC STORM AND HEAT

New York, July GA terrific storm
followed By intense heat caused four
deaths and many prostrations.
AT one timethe gale blew at the rate
of ~ miles an hour in the upper part
of New York, according to the weather
bureau. Many places were struck by
lightning, which played continuously
for an hour or more.
A great section of the Manhattan

sands of men and women who had

of them will be proven and may posi-
bly, result in sensational Developments
When it became evident that matters
we're more serious than ut first sup
posed, the president insisted upon a
radical inquiry and unbiased reports,
upon which summary action might be
taken. The work is expected to con-
sumo several months. If Mr. Leupp
is unable TO undertake the work, IT is
thought that Inspector Churchill, VINO
is pretty familiar with the situation in
the territory, will be assigned to the
task. In either case, the person desig-
mated to make the investigation will
90 to the territory with "a complete
staff of clerks and Il stcnographcr and
with full power to act. 1t is under
stood that the charges affect in part
the manner in which the townsites
were selected, and it is intimatcd that
several prominent officials we're in col
fusion with the railroads and other
interested forces and managed to make
n good thing out of their official l>nowl-
edge.
The dismissal of Clarence Il. Doug
lass is supposed to be direct out
growth of the croolSedncss that has
been the order. Other summary dis
mssals may soon follow, but the light
ming is expected to strike in higher
places when it does strike.

BABY WEATHER.
Little Fellows Don't Like the Hot
Days.

Mothers should know exactly what
food to give babies in hot weather
With the broiling hot days in July
and August the mother of a baby is
always anxious for the health of her
little one and is then particularly care
full in feeding. Milk sours quickly and
other food is uncertain. Even in spite
of caution, sickness sometimes creeps
in and then the right food is more nee
essary than ever.
Our baby boy two years old began
in August to have attacks of terrible
stomach and bowel trouble. The phys
ician said his digestion was very bad
and that if it had been earlier in the
summer and hotter weather we would
surely have lost him.
Finally we gave baby Grape-Nuts
food, feeding it several times the first
day and the next morning he seemed
better and brighter than he had been
for many days. There was a great
change in the condition of his bowels
and in three days they were entirely
normal. He is now well and getting
very strong and feshy and we know
that Grape-Nuts saved his life, for he
was a very, very i'll baby. Grape-Nuts
food must have wonderful properties
to effect such cures as this.
"We grown-ups in our family all use
Grape-Nuts and also Postum in place
of coffee with the result that we never
any of us have any coffee ills, but are
well and strong" Name given by Pos
tum Co.. Battle Creek. Mica.
The reason Grape-Nuts food relieves
bowel trouble in babies or adults is
because the starch Of the grain is pre-
digested and does not tax the bowels.

the government and this class of tres
passcrs began. Notwithstanding the
activity of the department during this
administration the cattlemcn have
been strong enough to continue their
land grabbing tactics. They have the
support of numerous senator's and can
combine influences in way which UNI
organized homesteaders find it impos-
sible to do The last official report on
the subject in 1902 shows that l59
illegal cattle fences inclosed 1852, Si4
acres of land. Some idea of this tract
can be obtained when it is known that
it contains few thousand acres more
than the entire Kiowa-Comanche
country thrown open to settlement and
deducting the lands taken out by the
government for allotment, Indian
schools, military reservations and other
purposes, contains million more acres
than the land settled through the El
Reno lottery. The tract exceeds the
area of the state of Connecticut by
several thousand acres.
During the fiscal year reports from
various states show enclosures aggre-
eating more than two million acres.
Radical action by the department of
Justice upon prcsents IONS made by
the interior department. have resulted
in the removal of fences which have
freed 3-5 million acres of land and
orders have been given for the removal
of fences which inclose an additional
half million acres.

Washington, July 3.-I'hc indica-
lions are that the investigation into
the affairs of the Indian allotments
and other matters in Indian Territory
will shortly assume as wide proper
tions as the postotlice investigation.
The president has taken cognizance OF
the situation and expressed his deter
mination to go to the bottom of the
numerous charges that have been filed
here. Moreover, the department OF
Justice has been drawn into the com
plication and is making an investiga-
ton on its own account into charges
against some of its officials.

Francis l.. Lcupp, the Washington
correspondent of a New York paper

Enough has been learned to indicate
that the charges involve the official
conduct of nearly all the officials in
the territory, high and low. and ex-
tend even to officials of the department
of Justice, if not the members of the
Dawes commission. Many of these
charges, it is understood, are based
upon more or less unsubstantial
grounds, but 1t is expected that some
