BIG TRACT RESTORED
TO ulNTAH LAND RESERVATION,
President ModIfies His Proclamation
and Cancels Withdrawal OF
Eighty-Five Thousand Acres,


Washington, Aug. 16.-The President
has modified his proclamation of the
9Th inst. Withdrawing from entry GER
tain lands in the Uintah Indian reser-
walton and has restored about $4,000
acres.
Following is the Interior Depart
ments statement of the action taken:
"The act of March 8, 1905, provides
that before the opening Of the Uintah.
Indian reservation the President may,
set apart and reserve any reservoir
site or other lands necessary to con-
serve and protect the water supply for
the Indians or for general agricultural
development Accordingly, the United
States Geological Survey, after due in
vestigation, made report to the secre-
tary Of the Interior recommending that
certain described lands, covering over
100000 acres, including large guam
tity of agricultural land, be reserved
under said provision of law.
Upon this recommendation the act
ing secretary of the interior requested
the President to issue his proclamation
making such reservations, and accord
ingly the President issued his procla-
nation of August 3, 1905. Subse-
Quently, complaints having reached the
department that the said agricultural
lands properly should not be included
in said reservation, Mr.. Ryan, the act
ing secretary, took the subject up for
further consideration, and directed
the United States Geological Survey to
make supplemental report stating
specifically whether the reservation of
these agricultural lands is necessary
for the conservation and protection of
a water supply This supplemental
report has been made and shows that
the reservation Of these lands is not
necessary for that purpose, but that
they were included in the surveys
original report on the assumption that
the act authorized their reservation
for agricultural development which
was specifically stated in it. The act
ing secretary decided that their reser-
walton was authorized only If 'neces-
'sary to conserve and protect the water
supply and requested the President to
release them from reservation, which
was done to-day by supplemental proc
lamatiou, and that now these agr1cul-
tural lands are subject to disposition
in the manner provided by the law"

At once there was d mad rush to secure property in the vicinity of the strike. Prices scared sky high, and every jumpers title sold for a good round sum. A de- plorablc custom in Alaska is that rich corporations frequently buy jumpers titles when d rich strike i, made.

Thirty Killed in Mine Explosion in Illi.
 nOis.

The most terrific mine explosion in
 the history of the Illinois fields was that which occurred at the Letter
 mine at Ziegler, Illinois. The mine superintendent says that at least thirty of the sixty men who were in the mine at the time of the explosion are undoubtedly dead. either crushed
 bv the falling slate and earth or ny
 the force of the explosion and gas. The mine was supposed to be one of
 the best protected in the country. so far as protection from gas and cxplo- 7ions of dust were concerned, but owing to the fact that it is one of
 the few in the field, which are closed down entirely on Sundays it is sup
 posed that the one idle day gave the
 gas and dust q chance to accumulate in such quantities as to cause the'cx- plosion.
 The force of the explosion was so great as to blow steel cage from
 the bottom of d 500-foot shaft to the surface and tear away the huge tim bers at the mouth of the shaft on the surface One miner was killed and several others badly hurt who were standing at the entrance of the shaft
 on the surface by being struck by fly | ing timbcrs.
 The work of rescue is exceedingly
 difficult and very dangerous because
 of the foul air in the mine. Many of | those engaged in this work have been
 overcome by the gases and were com pelled to leave the shaft and ascend
 to the open air. In nearly every | instance those rescued met death from sutfocation by gas. no marks be | ing found upon the bodies that would indicate that they were otherwise hurt by the explosion.
 After thorough examination of the wrecked part of the mine. and from information gained from those taken from the mine alive after the accident. it is believed that there were two separate explosions. The
 first was probably in :. small air shaft
 and the second, the one which did
 the greatest damage, was in the
 main shaft and immediately followed
 the first.
