Receives Bad News.

Edwin Perry, president of the Iowa
District of United Mine Workers of
America, returned home yesterday
from the national conference at In
dianapolis to learn of the death of
his brother, Jesse Hughes, at Potts
vile, Pa. 81
The telegram telling of the acct
dental death of the man reached this
city in advance or Mr.. Perry. Secre-
tary John White made every effort
to intercept Mr.. Perry in his journey
home from the convention, but was
unable to reach him and Mr.. Perry
did not learn of the accident before
arriving at mis- home in this city. He
departed Immediately last evening
for Pottsville and will be in attend
ance at the funeral which will be
held Monday.
Nothing of the details of the acct
dent to the brother can be learned

that death was caused by gas, but the
manner CT death is not stated. Mr..
Hughes was an operator in oil which
leads to the conjecture that the acct,

Mr.. Perry will have the sympathy
of large circle of friends in this
city and in general throughout the
state where he is known.
