SUSPECT RELEASED.
HE WAS In ELECTION FIGHT
AT MEMPHIS.

Louisville. Ky. Jan. 2S-On re
ceipt OF telegram from the chief Of
police Of Memphis today that Harry
Behr could not have been at Bedford
Ind, At the time Miss Schafer wa'
murdered. Judge MoCsnn today dis
missed Behr from custody.
Behr WAS arrested yesterday while
drunk from opium smoking and aftei
he had said he had committed muir
der.
For that reason he was carr led tC
Central police station as a suspect.
The fact that blood spots were on
the undercl othing OF Behr was the nd.
ditional cause for his detention. Behr
saws he had nothing whatever to do
with the murder of Miss Sohafer.
Behr accounts for himself in . salts
factory, but not creditable manner.
He WAS enc of the participants IN
the disgraoeful election day fights IN
Memphis on January Z, and was there
wounded, accounting for the blood
spots. Careless as to his personal
cleanliness, he had not changed his vn-
derwear since.

Christian County Negroes Say
They are Innocent.
Holland Sticks to His Story but the
Others Say IL He Murdered Any
one They Don't Know il.
THEY ALLEGE PREJUDICE

The seven negroes brought here yes
terday from Hopkinsville for safe
keeping on a charge Of numbering an
unknown white man, claim they are
all innocent except Georgs Holland,
who was first arrested and "peAahed"
ON the others.
The negroes were seen this morning
by q Sun reporter and stated that Hol-
land had simply stated to the police
that they were with him when he cut
the unknown white mans throat, but
did not state that they took any active
part in the murder. They claim if
any murder was committed by Hol-
land he did il alone, and not with
their knowledge or help.
They further stated that the officers
had . grudge against them and were
more than willing to implicste them,
going so far Is to call their names and
ask Holland If he did not remember Of
seeing them there, TO which he agreed.
There were nine negroes arrested
for the murder, seven being brought
here sad two taken to jacksonville.
There are four convicts already, and
sentenced to hang. three Of the con-
victed prisoners being brought here.
The Jail at Hopkinsville is crowded
and the officers feared mob violence, q
colored mob having strung q negro up
near Guthrie Sunday night. This
caused the officers to fear mob vio-
lenoe at Hopkinsville and they hus-
tied the negroes Off to Madisonville
and this city.
The name Of the white man killed
has never been learned. and probably
never will be. The prisoners claim
that even when they proved alibis the
word of the self confessed murderer
Holland was taken in preference to all
the testimony they had.

Are Being Brought Up From
Harwick Mine.
Many Of Them Will Never Be Identi-
fed in All Prob
ability.
CAUSE IS STILL A MYSTERY

Pittsburg, Jan. 2S-The Harwick
mine Is giving up its victims. The
burned and mangled bodies of the men
who went to work on Monday morn
ing are being brought up to the sur
face, and bob sleds which stand in .
line are hauled up the snow road to
the school house on the hill. Every
body so far brought mp is bruised, cut
and crushed into shapelessness, and
ell so far have their hands raised to
their faces, indicating that the doomed
men foresaw their fate and tried with
their last conscious efforts to ward il
of. The fact that the legs and arms
are broken and disjointed shows tina,
the force of the explosion must have
been terrific. 1t is presumed that the
men were hurled against the Jagged
walls Of the mine and crushed at the
ends of headings and chambers. Scarce
ly one of the bodies has any clothing
on il and all are more or less burned,
some to crisp.
There will be great difficulty iden.
tifying them on this account and about
the only means to a ccomplish identifi-
cation will be by the small brass
weigh checks bearing a number, which
each man draws upon going into the
mines and Of which . record is kept.
But as many of the victims are dew aid
of clothing confusion will result.
Among the bodies was that of .
stranger. Who he was or what he was
doing in the mine no one seems to
know. He may unwittingly have
caused the explosion by lighting q
match.
H. A. Mcmillan, who led one par
ty of searchers said:
Fifteen bodies were found in Butt
1 of the south entry. All Of them
with the exception OF the stranger
were badly burned and mangled. O-e's
head was blown of. In room Of the
south entry we found two men lying
face downward near each other.
These had evidently been killed by
the force of the explosion. In another
place we found six men, all negroes, I
believe. Five were in heap and one
wa, pinned under car. We found the
driver of that entry lying along the
roadway where he had been blown.
Rooms 10 and 10, south entry, are
caved to the depth Of five feet. There
are several men buried there, as there
are undoubtedly men buried under
rock in other parts of the mine. For
this reason it will be weeks before all
of the bodies are recovered.

Air Receiver at the Water
Works Plant Gave Away.
Windows Demolished ana Mill Wall
ID. Well Peppered by
Force.
NO ONE WAS HURT

A big compressed air receiver at the
Padu-ah Water oo.hpany's plant on
First street between Kentucky and
Washington streets gave way about 8
o'clock this morning with terrific
force, but fortunately no one was in
jured. The huge reservoir, which 10
about go feet o' more long and foot
In diameter. was used TO receive the
compressed air with which the big
hammers were worked in riveting the
new reservoir Il was on the south
side Of the company's pumping sta.
ton, near the wall, and a short dis.
tanoe back from the sidewalk.
About S O'Clock those in the vicini.
ty. and in fact in many other parts OF
town, were startled by loud explo-
sion which shook everything in the To-
cality. Windows ratified and broke
and scores OF people began to run to-
wards the plant to find out what caused
the defamation.
The compressed air apparatus was
pretty We II wrecked. The big receiv
or had one end blown of. the casting
striking near top window in the
three Rivers mill across the street,
breaking the glass and leaving n heavy
imprint on the bricks.
A galvanized iron gutter on the side
OF the water works plant was blown
of with such force that IL struck the
brick mill on the opposite side OF the
street endwise and mashed about
inches of the gutter up like an sooor-
deon.
Snow from the ground was blown
with such force against the mill that
large splotohes were visible all over
the front. No one happened to be in
front Of the receiver when It gave
way, hence no one WAS injured. Cnp-
tain Order, Of the Dick Fowler, was
not many feet away, and some OF the
water oompany's men, including Chief
Engineer holmes, had been directly
in front OF il short time before TAX
ing measurements IL is said that
there was . press of eighty pounds
OF air ON when The receiver burst
MIR. Holmes stated that the damage
would be slight Several Of the win
dows OF the pumping station on that
side were demolished. as were the win
dows in Mr.. Holmes residence next
door, while many of those in the win.
dows OF the mill across the street were
also broken. Some OF the window
panes were loosened by the conclusion
and came out whole.
The cause was either that the safe.
ty valve on the receiver froze or for
that there was some defec in the cast-
ing that was blown OF. anu it failed
TO stand the pressure. The valve is
believed to have been all right, ms Mr..
Holmes heard II working about is
minutes before.
The compressed air apparatus is dis
abled for a day or two, but will soon
be repaired. The total damage will
probably not amount TO more than
sl60 or sl75.
