OVER FORTY MEN PERISH ~ GAS
EXPLOSION IN LETTER MINE
At ZEIGLER, ILL.
Thirty-seven Bodies Have So Far Been
Taken From the Pit and II Is Be-
lieved There Are Several More En-
tombed-cause Of the Accident Is
Attributed to carbonic Acid Gas
and Poor Ventilation.
and Poor Ventilation.

Carbondale. ILL.,, April 5.-Thirty-
seven bodies of miners who lost their
lives in the gas explosion at the mine
of Joseph Letter at Zeigler Monday,
have been recovered and ii Is sup
posed several more bodies are in the
mine. The exact number OF dead will
probably not be known for several
days, at least not until the mine has
been Invested of the gas and persons
permitted to enter. Among the dead
Is William Scott Atkinson, state mine
examiner for the Seventh subdistrict,
who lost his life in an attempt to per-
form his duties as mine inspector, and
who died while trying to reach the
bodies OF those who were entombed.
After thirty hours but little light is
shed on the cause of the catastrophe,
The accident is attributed to carbonic
acid gas due to poor ventilation.
Every body so far recovered Is a
blackened mass. State Inspector AL
kinson was one of the best known
miners of the district. He was the
father of four children and was a
member Of the Masonic fraternity.
All the mines in the Seventh subdis-
trict have been ordered shut down on
Friday next, the day of his funeral,
and special trains have been ordered
so that the 10000 miners can attend
the funeral.
Joseph Letter arrived at the shaft
during the day. The coroner's jury
empaneled to inquire into the cause
of the disaster has so far rendered no
verdict. The taking of evidence may
be prolonged several days.

RUSSIANS WILL FIGHT
RENEWAL OF HOSTiLlTiEs Elk
PEcTEp TO BEGIN SHORTLY
BELOW GUNSHU PASS.

Gunshu Pass, Manchuria, April A.
A renewal of fighting is expected
shortly. The concentration of the
Russian army is complete, with its
advance lines south of the station of
Sipinghai, seventy-four miles north of
Tie pass. The Japanese are screening
their movements well by means of
cavalry and 1t is difficult to locate
the. bulk of their army. A heavy
movement seems to be in progress
on the Russian TANKS. The railroad
station at Changtufu, forty to fifty
miles above Tie pass, is occupied by
japanese artillery, but so Jar as as
certainable it does not cover a large
body of troops.
A two-wheeled cart of the Russo
Chinese bank containing more than
$500, 900, which was lost during the
retreat from Mukden, has been found,
but the cash chest of the Ninth regi-
ment of artillery, which was also lost,
Ia still undiscovered.
A movement of Chinese bandits led
by Japanese officers through Mongolia
in the direction of Tsitsihar, 300 miles
west of Hardin, has been reported
and pressure is being brought by the
Japanese in China for an open alli-
ance with Japan. Yuan Shi Kai, gov
ernor of Pechili province, and Gen.
eral Ma. commander of the Chinese
troops on the frontier, are said to be
ut the head of this agitation.

EVENTS INDICATE THAT EFFORTS
TO END FAR EASTERN WAR
HAVE FAILED.
All Plans to Bring Russia and Japan
Into Pacific Negotiations Have Evil
IDENTIFY Come to Grief-czar's Gov
eminent Preparing to Continue the
War-Russian Hopes Now Centered
on. Rojsstvensky's Fleet.

st. Petersburg, April 5.-The an
nouncement that President Roosevelt
has left Washington on a vacation
trip is accepted here as evidence that
the efforts to draw Russia and Japan
into peace negotiations have come 10
grief for the moment No definite
explanation of exactly what happened
is forthcoming, but the general i'm
to treat upon the Russian basis or
demanded direct avowal that there
was pacific disposition. At any
rate the advocates of continuation
of the war seem secure of their posi-
ton and everything indicates that the
hope of an immediate change of for
jestvensky, whose squadron, accord
ing to the best information, is now
actually on its way to meet the Japa-
nese. The admiralty is greatly en-
couraged by the prospects that Ro-
testvensky will be able to defeat Adj
miral Togo, owing to the splendid re-
ports which have just arrived here
from Rojestvensky, dated from the
island of Madagascar, recounting in
detail the condition of the ships and
personnel and the results of the tar
get practice of the squadron and of
the maneuvers in which the warships
have been drilling for three months.
