AT LEAST % MINERS DIE.
An Explosion of Terrific Force. Stat
tering Windows a Mile Distant, En-
tOmbs the Men at Work I'm a Coal
Shaft at Wilcoe and Sends Clouds of
Smok and Dust Gushing Outward.

Bluetield, w. Va, February 26.-As a
result of an explosion in shaft No. /,
OF the United States Coal and Coke
Company at Wilcoe today, % miners
are supposed to have lost their lives,
and it is possible that h number will
exceed this. Up to s p. m. Is dead bod
les had been taken from the shaft. A
large rescuing party is in the mines
tonight. 1t is barely possible, but not
likely, that some Of the remaining mill
ers viii be scued alive. The expl3-
sion was of terrific force and shatter-
ed windows a mile distant. Immedi-
ately after the shock great numbers
of miners who were of duty today, ii
being Sunday, rushed to the shaft, to
fino great CLOUDS OF smoke and dust
gushing from its mouth. Mothers, chill
dren and other relatives o were
weeping and pleading for h escue Of
those dear to them entombed in une
mine. The officials Of the mines, includ-
ing n Manager Refs, were coon
on the ground, and the work of rescu-
ing he miners is now being directed oy
Mr.. Refs. The dead miners thus far
recovered are all italians and Hunga-
rians and have not as yet been identi-
fed.
The company usually work in this
shaft about Is miners, but today being
Sunday, the men were not all in, and
the small less of life can be contributed
only to this fact.
the United States Coal and Coke
Company, with principal Offices IN
P1ttsburg, Pa. is a part of the United
States Steel Corporation.
The cause off the explosion has not
as yet been determined, and since it is
hardly probable any of those in the
mine will recovered alive, the cause of
the explosion nay ever be known

NAVAL APPROPRIATION Bill
Measure Passes Senate Carving $780,
800, OOO-Rapid Increase Of the
Navy Criticised and Defended.

Washington, February N.-The Sem
ate today passed the naval bill carry
ing a total appropriation of 500, 3oo. coo.
The bill was discussed by Messrs. Cor
man, Mccumber, Blackburn, Carnack,
Hale, Lodge, Martin, Perkins, and Tel
Ter. Mr.. Hale again criticised the too
rapid increase of the navy and Mr..
Lodge defended the policy of the ad-
ministration in foreign matters and in
naval increase.
Mr.. German, discussing the proposed
increase of the appropriation for the
marine corps. declared there could be
no excuse for such an increase in times
OF peace. II suppose If this is to coa-
tfnue' he said, that we will soon have
our marines in all Of the weaker South
American republics"
Public improvements had been para
lyzed by the big appropriations for the
academy and navy. Public buildings and
river and harbor improvements hal
been utterly sacrificed. The time is
close at hand" he said, when the peo-
pie will not tolerate these conditions
at the cost Of trade interests Of the
country"
Mr.. Carmack submitted an amend
ment to reduce the number of battle
ships to be provided by the bill from
two TO one, and Mr.. Blackburn support
ed the amendment. Mr.. Blackburn
said lGne battle ship had never been
tested until the 'tskirmish at Santiago"
and It's qualities hava not been estao-
lishei.
Every time we build a new battle
ship We ave a new SpaSm of terror,
n 30 every time we have a new
spasm we build a new battleship'' sa;d
Mr.. Carmack in beginning a speech in
depreciation of too great increase Of
the navy.
I'VE have just elected t o the office of
chief executive" he said, the most
militant and strenuous gentleman who
ever planted his armOred heel pon OUT
soil" He is inflicted with an incurable
propensity to interfere with the af-
fairs of other nations, especially with
those Of the republics to the south of
U.s." He asserted that from these cir
cumstances other nations have a right
to conclude that we are arming for ag-
gression rather than defense.
Mr.. Lodge spoke of the naval estaD-
lishment saying: Il want a strong navy
for one simple reason, because I believe
it is the guarantee of peace. In this
age you cannot defend the country
with buster and you cannot go on the
theory hat no one will attacQ US be-
cause we are rich and strong Contin-
uing, he said that the autocrats of Eu-
rope did not like us; that they Were
all land hungry and that they would
not refrain from landing troops in
South American countries but for the
nearness of American fleets.
, Mr.. Lodge defended our policy in San
Domingo Ink aid emphatically that he
did not desire any more annexations
; to the southwark.
Mr.. Martin defended the usefulness of
; battleships. Mr.. Carnack's motion Was
voted down % to 3S.
The Senate after passing the naval
bill considered the Indain appropriation
bill an dthe Philippine tariff bill and
adjourned until tomorrow.

Goldsboro, N. c., February 2.-The
inhabitants of Little Washington, a
suburb of Goldsboro, were thrown into
a fever of excitement Sunday afternoon
about 2.3O o'clock, over a shooting af-
fray. Old ':Jim Barley Corn" OF some
Of his kindred spirits, was the instiga-
tor of the excitement, and a negro man
named Brewington, of this city, ana
young white man, Geo. W. Williams, of
Mt. Olive, precipitated the trouble. 1t
is impossible to get the exact partic-
ulars leading up to the trouble, but by
ISLANDERS relate that Mr.. Williams walk
ed UP to the negro and after a few
words were exchanged between them,
Williams pulled out his pistol, took de-
iberate aim and fired at the negroes
head. The ball struck a bone neal the
Y and glanced off, and while the ne
gro received a painful wound he was rot
dangerously hurt. His escape is mIrac-
ulOuS, however. Williams was arreSIe;.
and locked up, but gave bond in a short
while. He was before Mayor Hood this
morning ard wdlved an examination,
the case going to the higher court.

A SNARE AND A DELUsTON.
Ex-Governor Jarvis Says That the
the Ward Bill Has Not a Shadow Of
Temperance i'm it-Frank Spruili's
Letter.
Especial to The Messenger.)

Raleigh, N. c., February 27.-The
situation. AS the time approaches for
NAL action on it, the atmosphere
around it becomes distinctly hazy, il
all thai one hears about the Hobbies
and from the members is to be credited.
Strange as it may seem, a great many
people are just beginning to discover
that both the prohibition and the sa-
loon advocates nave been raising a tenn
pest in a teapot over it. Even such
public men as Frank S. Spruill, late
Democratic elector for the state at large
a trained lawyer and legislator who
was present at the recent meeting OF
the state committee as a member, made
a very strong speech for Senator Sim
mons and his Ward bill, comes out in
a long letter in a Raleigh paper yes
terday, saying he had just carefully
read the Ward bill and finds that it is
nothing at all, and has not a shadow
of temperance in it, and yet this bill
has passed the Senate. and has been
published in all the papers at least
three weeks ago. Ex-Governor Jarvis
who has been here before the Supreme
court as attorney from the Rowland
Improvement Company in getting an
extension Of this charter, before leav-
ing today for his home in G%reenville
had this to say of the Ward bill: 1T
amounts to nothing. 1t is a snare and
delusion. It does not touch a solitary
barroom in North Carolina or amend
- ~ n @fr low ~
ing the sale of liquor, and does not az
feet a single county in the Eastern part
of the state, where liquor will continue
to be sold in bar rooms in a thousand
villages. To call it a moral or a tenn
perance question is simply absurd. ana
yet this is the law which the president
Of the Anti-Saloon forces, J. W. Bailey
and the chairman of the State Demo-
cratic committee, Josephus Daniels and
other inside and outside leaders of the
party has made the test of fealty, not
only to the Democratic party but to the
temperance and moral standard OF
their craftsmanship"
The whole business is funny and
complicated. Attention has also been
called to the fact that Ex-Governor Ay-
cock who was one of the authors OF the
Watts law, has never been heard to
open his mouth, literally or 1iterarily
in regard to the Watts bill. A shrewd
and experienced legislator was heard
to say this morning that he would not
vote for the Ward bill, now since he
understood it. Asked as to why he had
changed his mind, he made this re-
markable declaration. Il realize per-
fectly well since I have understood it,
that in six months after it becomes a
law, and it will be discovered by the
temperance people and prohibitionfsts
forces all over the state, that it not
only amounts TO nothing except 10
whip out Shore, Williams and Advance
distilleries, and locate them in Sails
bury and Winston with increased Ca
pacity, but has also had the effect Of
preventing any amendment to Watts
law looking to real temperance reform,
they will turn and reno those who vot-
ed for the fraud"

Code.
Especial to The Messenger.)

Raleigh, N. c., February 27.-The
Senate railroad committee tonight re-
ported unanimously against the rail-
o passenger rate reduction bill,
which had passed the House by a
large majority. Early In the session
the Senate by a rising vote, unani-
mously passed a bill ~appropriating
money for a monument to the late
General and ex-senator Ransom. To-
day h House practically killed the
ILL by referring 1t pack to a commit
tee. the author of the passenger rate
reduction bill being a conspicuous OPP
ponent Of the Ransom monument bill.
1t is said that the action of the SEN
ate committee was retaliatory and
there is much comment over the FAIL
ire Of both bills.
Tonight committee on the code re-
ported, changing the name to he re
yisal OF 1905, this change being made

The matter was discussed by Busbee as
to the character of the claim. The
history of the bonds, and how Schafer
bought them on the Wall street market,
over So years ago. No proposition OF
a definite character looking to a cont
promise was submitted by either side.
