CAVE.IN [NTOMBS
OVER 100 Miners
Cannot Be Reached for Many
Hours and All Are Thought
Dead

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Feb. 20. =
Meager reports say that los men are
buried in the Virginia mines, thirteen
miles from Birmingham. 1t is feared
that all the men are dead. Relief
trains carrying physicians and laborers
have been sent. The men cannot be
reached before tomorrow morning. The
mines belong to the Alabama Steel and
Wire company, and are leased by Reid
& Co. Both white and colored miners
are employed, and only recently union
miners went TO work.
The slopes are well situated, and
there has never been trouble from gas
heretofore. 1t is said that the acci-
dent was caused by cave-in, due to
the giving way of the timbers. The
camp is isolated, except for one tele-
graph wire. The class of miners en-
ployed was good. The mines were
working to their full capacity.

HOUSE TOEKPEt#IM
Baker Introduces Warm Reso-
luton Denouncing St. Pc
tersburq Massacre

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 20.-The
removal of Grand Duke Sergius of
Russia gave rise TO an unusual scene
in the house today. Several times
during the debate the assassination
was referred to, the subject being
brought up by Representative Baker,
of New York, who condemned the ac-
ton of President Roosevelt in sending
people, he declared, did view with alb
horrence the massacre in st. Peters
burg on Jan. 22, but the president, he
said, had not seen fit to send a mes
sage of coincidence on that occasion.
He was replied TO by Mr.. Grosvenor,
of Ohio, who took the ground that re-
gardless of the character of the duke
of Russia's policy toward her subjects,
the president, in sending the message
had done exactly what civilization rec
ognized as his duty.
Mr.. Baker, in great excitement, Of
fered the following resolution, which
he read:
THAT while this house views with
horror the deliberate destruction of
human life, at all times and under all
circumstances, yet 1t declares that rep
rehensible as was the murder OF the
Grand Duke Sergius, il was no more
wanton than the massacre perpetrated
by the Russian government on Jan. %.

WAR ON STANDARD
OIL IS SPREADING
Other States Begin Taking
Up the Fight of
Kansas

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 20.-On account
OF small attendance of members, the
Kansas house today deferred its con-
sideration of the anti-discrimination oil
bill until Tuesday. 1t will be made a
special order for that day and will be
pushed through as rapidly as possible.
The Holdren bill prohibiting the pump
ing Of gas will be considered by the
senate this week. 1t is considered that
the bills will pass and this will end
the battle for oil producers, so far as
legislation is concerned.
Some action will be taken regarding
further investigation of the Standard
Oil company in Kansas. 1t is likely
that Kansas will make an independent
investigation in addition to the one
promised by the government. II a
state. investigating committee is ap-
pointed attention will be given to the
charge that the Santa Fe railway is in
terested with the oil element working
against the Kansas oil producers. The
senate today passed a resolution pro-
testing against the extension of the
Foster leases in the Indian territory.
The protest was telegraphed to Presi-
dent Roosevelt tonight. That much
danger TO the Kansas oil refinery exists
in a possible extension of the lease was
the view expressed by the senate.

then secured the floor and demanded
that his client be permitted to put in
his bid.
Mr.. Pottgieser replied by stating that
II was too late. as the committee had
already made the award.
Mr.. Moeller then made the state-
ment that he had understood that the
bid for the work which had been fixed
up by the combination was for $4OO.
but that since he had announced his
intention of appearing before the board
and demanding his rights he supposed
a lower bid would be put in.
Thereupon Commissioner Pottgieser
arose and handed the report of the
committee, which recommended the
award of the contract to Frank Al
verdes for $1S7.25. The other bids SUBJ
mitted were by Keefe-D Davidson $3.50.
and Peltz Bros. & Reiman $349.5O.
The matter was closed by the adop-
ton of the report of the committee.
When seen at his home by G o b a
reporter last night and told of the full
extent of the charges made by Mr..
Moeller, Mr.. Pottgieser said
LAS public official I have always
done my duty, but in every public
mans life there will always arise some
devil from the ground who will try to
misconstrue his acts and malign his
personality. 1 don't know anything
about a printers ring" and If l find
any evidence of it's existence it won't
get any county work through me-"
How about Mr.. Moeller and his
charges that you have continually re-
fused him specifications for county
binding?"
Telephones for Bidders
Il have refused to have anything to
do with him, and when he asked me
for the specifications on this last Job
of binding 1 told him that he couldn't
have them. l am not required under
the law to advertise for bids on county
printing or binding where the cost does
not exceed $500. and 1 don't have to
do business with a man that is always
trying to make trouble for me. When
ever the county has any work to be
done l telephone around to the people
1 want to put in bids and give them
the specifications. / make my report
to the commissioners recommending
the lowest bid put in by any responsi-
BILE firm"
IF there is no printers ring how
do you account for the fact that Mr..
Moeller was offered SO TO refrain from
putting in bid
Il account for that fact by saying
that don't believe he was ever offered

WHAT'S THE NATTER WITH ST. PAUL
by Should


BY ordinances 1927 and 1913. adopted in 1889 and
1900, respectively, the nterurban line franchise
granted by the city of ST. Paul the St. Paul City
Railway company. This franchise gives the COM
pany the exclusive right for the term of fifty years
a street railway University This
franchise granted upon the express condition
that
Said company shall boulevard a space of twenty
FIVE feet in width, the center line of which space shall
be the center line Of University avenue and shall sod
said space the outside of and between the tracks
of said company, and shall for such time the
councii permits the boulevard maintain and keep
the in good condition, the other parks
kept, and shall plank all the street crossings of
said University avenue in proper manner at the
time of the laying of the tracks thereon. and shall
thereafter keep the said crossings in good condi-
ton. II said company shall fail to comply
with the provisions of this ordinance then all rights
acquired hereunder shall be forfeited.
A similar ordinance was passed by the common
council of the city of Minneapolis.
The nterurban line is the best paying street rail-
way in the United States. A short time after il went

whom were in full sympathy with the
objects Of the assembly. Two tutors
and small number of students who
wished to obtain their diplomas this
year made an Intellectual attempt to
stem the general tide.
Resolutions That Bite
Following is the text of the resolu-
tions adopted by the meeting:
Effete Russian absolutism is drawing
daily-nay, hourly-to its inevitable
doom. Powerless TO cope with an awak
ened people, in its agony. it devises me
measure more ridiculous than another,
and one method more reckless than an
other, to delay its downfall. 1t entered
upon a criminal adventure in the far East,
which has cost the people tens of thou
sands of lives and millions of hard earned
money. Conscious of its goal the intelli-
gence of the students has long conducted
stubborn fight to obtain the most ele-
mentary human rights. often falling faint
bridled government until at last the pro-
letariat entered the historic arena and
at the same time, as il came to the knowl-
edge of itself, dealt czardom the heaviest
blows.
The recent bloody events have clearly
shown what abSolutiSm is capable of in
defense Of its pitiful. shameful existence.
The sincere. fraternal. harmonious action
of the proletariat on these days of jan
uary signed the death warrant of abso-
lutism, and without doubt insured the
speedy political liberation of Russia.
We, as a section Of the educated COM
munity. conscious of our goal, welcome
the solidarity of workmen and put forward
the following demands:
1. Summoning a legislative assembly on
the basis of a universal, equal and secret
ballot of male and female citizens; free
dom of speech; freedom of the press; free
dom Of organization and striking.
2. Amnesty for all who have been pun
ished for their political or religious con-
victions
3. The fact Of belonging to any partic-
ular nationality shall not prejudice politi
cal rights.
Further. as a guarantee against inter-
ference of the Russian government in the
free execution of these demands a peo-
pies militia must be Immediately formed
in whose ranks all citizens can fight to
realize our aspira tions.
Recognizing the significance of this his
torical moment when Russia is emerging
from period Of ferment into open revolt
and when everyone has but one end in
view, We cannot pursue our studies and
therefore suspend them until Sept. 13
By that time events will have furnished
new material for the solution of these
questions.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 21-With
the decision of the student body of the
great University of ST. Petersburg,
yesterday, to suspend studies for the
remainder of the university year, al
most the whole educational system of
Russia has entered on period of stag
nation, the protest of the youth of
Russia against the bureaucratic sys-
tenn and other governmental griev-
ances. Other universities of Russia,

to suspend studies until Sept /, adopt
ed resolutions demanding the formation
of a constituent assembly and char
acterizing the proposed summoning of
the zemsky tabor as inadequate for
the emergency. The resolutions, after
speaking of '-the progressive demoral-
izatiop of Russia under the influence
of the absolute regime" declare for
freedom of speech, the press, con-
science, the right of association and
assembly, and to strike, which are de-
scribed as necessary conditions for the
further progress of Russia.
Vote to Stop the War
The meeting also unanimously de-
-eided to express disapproval of the ac-
tion of the government in dealing with
the workmen who attempted to pre-
sent their petition to the emperor on
Jan. %, and its sympathy with the
victims of the soldiery. A large fac
tion voted in favor of stopping the war.
A strong revolutionary feeling was
manifested at the meeting, the red flag
was waved and the "Marseillaise" and
other revolutionary songs were chant
