DISCOVERING THE DEAD
Ninety-twO Bodies Taken From the
 Virginia Mines.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 23.-At $ o'clock tonight ninety two bodies had been recovered from the Virginia mines. and the rescue work continues Foul odors from decomposing bodies have now become so unbearable that the rescuers work in short relays and hundreds of pounds of disinfectant have been used to make further work possible.
 Fifty-five funerals were conducted in the suburbs of Birmingham today, all of which were for victims of the disaster. It is estimated that there are at least twenty-five more bodies to be taken out and the rescuers have to finish up the ''level' they are now on, and open more levels" There are three bodies in the bottom of the low est level, which it is expected will require at least ten days to reach. The bodies are those of the bumper and his assistants. They are covered with water and since the pumping machin- cry was ruined by the explosion, it will take much time to get the water out of the mine.
 Governor Cunningham has officially instructed State Mine Inspector Gray and his assistants to make a thorough investigation of the disaster and report to him at the earliest practicable mOm- ent. The relief fund for the stricken families so far amounts to more than 15,00O.

THE NORTH SEA VERDICT
It Is Said That It's a Victory for
 Neither Side.

Paris, Feb. 23.-The international commission appointed to inquire into the North sea incident practically con cluded its work tonight by finally agreeing to the report, which will be publicly announced at the closing ses- sion, to be held at o'clock next Sat urday.
 Concerning the general nature of the report the following statement was made in the most authoritative quar- ter to the Associated Press: ''When the text of the decision becomes known it will be more acceptable to the press and the public than they have been led to believe. Semi official summaries appearing, while more or less accur- ate, tend too strongly to show Russian success, but as a matter of fact the admirals have sought a middle ground and the decision is not a pronounced victory for either side. It is of such a Character as to preserve Russia's self respect and at the same time give the British public much ground for satis- faction If anything the decision is rather more favorable to Great Britain than to Russia
 On the other hand the Havas agency tonight confirmed its semi official | conclusions as a whole are quite favor able to Russia. recognizing that Ad- miral Rojestvensky could Ikgitimately consider himself in danger And act as he did. However, the report contains reservations calculated to satisfy British susceptibilities. the most inn portant being that the commission esteems that the Russian fire lasted too long and also that Rojestvensky should have speedily notified the Bri- tish maritime authorities of the de- plorable incident. On the question of the presence Of torpedo boats the commission frees all navies from the imputation.
 'The commission rejected the mo- tion of Admiral Beaumont of Great Britain, blaming the Russian crews. The conclusions are said to be in the form of questions whereto commits sioners state their answers rather un- animOusly or as a majority"
 American officials are strongly in clined to accept the view first stated. that the decision is more favorable to Great Britain than to Russia.

The Situation Is Quiet, but in the Meantime the Strike Is Gaining Ground.

Warsaw, Feb. 23-The situation here is causing the greatest anxiety in all circles. The assistant to the governor general, who was interviewed today frankly admitted that the government is at a loss to know what to do 1 Alarming reports are current concern 1 ing the intention and plans of the rev olutionary party and March is await ed with much apprehension. The strike agitation is spreading in every direc- tion and bank clerks, journalists, office servants, printers, drivers and station arY engineers and merchants in gen eral are all threatening to strike Not withstanding all this the situation is remarkably quiet.
 The Vienna railroad is still com pletely at a standstiu and there ap- pears no hope of a speedy settlement of the difficulty The directors had a long session today. but were unable to find a solution. They will renew the conference tomorrow. Western Poland is completely cut off from communica- tion with middle and western Europe except by telegraph. No mails are ar irving or leaving, the authorities ap- parently preferring to hold the mails rather than send them by circuitous routes. Commercial interests and pri- vate individuals are much inconven- fenced. The city is threatened with a coal famine, the entire supply of coal coming from the district of Dombrova over the Vienna road
 The governor general has offered to supply military men to work the trains but it is impractical as the strikers have destroyed the switches Many through passengers from Moscow and St. Petersburg are detained here and great quantities of perishable goods from France and Italy are being ut- terly spoiled by delay 4 telephone message from Lodz says the workmen in most of the factories there have re- turned to their labors, but as the big mills are only paying the old wages. while the pay of the men in the small mills has been increased, it is feared the improvement is only temporary.

Residents of Pretty Little
City Patiently Waiting
for Promised Electric Line
NEED FOR THE SYSTEM
Could Easily Make a COmbi-
nation With Company Now
Running Into San MateO
sn.claI pispateh to The can.


REDWOOD CITY. May 24.-While the
coast side Of San Mateo County is greatly
agitated over the coming OF the electric
railroad, which has already incorporated
and for which certain minor contracts
have been awarded, the people or Red
wood are interested TO know when their
city . to be equipped with similar rail-
way. There seems at present very little
inclination to extend the road now IN
operation between San Francisco ana the
town OF San Mateo and delay Is the
order OF the day with those corporations
that promised to build north from san
Jose until connections were made with
the road that now terminates at San
Mateo.
There is much TO support the assertion.
however, that the 1nrerurban system.
which extends between San Jose, Los
Gatos and Saratoga. will soon build north
of Palo Alto, leaving the long stretch be-
tween that town and San Mateo still
without an electric road. The Interurban
system Is considered to be an adjunct OF
the SouthernAPacific Company and the
proposed extension Is viewed as an effort
to shut out another corporation which
has under consideration q project to con-
meet San Jose. Palo Alto and the town
of San Mateo, Were such an electric rail-
road a reality it could very readily make
a profitable combination with the San
Mateo and San Francisco electric road
and complete line from San Jose to San
Francisco.
