Petition to Declare Charles J. Devlin
 a Raukrupt.


 Topeka, July 5.-Affairs in the fall ure of the First National Bank as- sunied a different phase today when Kansas City creditors petitioned the United States District Court to declare Charles J. Devlin a bankrupt. The pe- tition was made returnable on July 20, and its effect is to prevent any further attachments of Devlin prop erty and to set aside real estate. valued at s7o0.0oo which Mir. Devlln on Monday had transferred to the failed bank. Today's act thus reduces the banks assets at least temporarily to just that extent.
 Mir Devlin's business assistants de- clare he Is far from being bankrupt and still insist that the bank will be enabled to pay dollar for dollar. Re- ceiyer Bradley, who began delving in- to the books of the bank today. an- nounced that it would he ten days be- fore he could make a statement of its condition. He announced that 1t was doubtful If the State. which had a half million dollars in the bank. would be considered a preferred creditor. Gov ernor Hoch stated tonight that the executive council would tomorrow con slider the action of State Treasurer Kelly in placing SO much of the States money in one bank.
 There was no run today on any of the other banks. all fear having ap- parently being allayed

KILLED IN EXPLOSION
TWO MINERS MEET DEATH, SEVEN
 OTHERS HURT.
All of the Unfortunates Were Italians Theory of PrOperty's Owners as to Cause of Accident
 is Doubted.

Bluefield. W. Va, July 5.-By an ex- plosion in the Tidewater mine at Vivian twenty miles west of this city. today nine miners, all of whom were Italians, were injured and two of them died later in the hospital, while three more are in a precarious condition with slight chances of recovery. All of tho men were burned badly. Tho dead are:
 Lee Mozzille: Antonio Bupitomio.
 The explosion occurred at about S:3o this morning. The men had just be- gun entering the mine and those in- jured represent all that were in the mines at the time of the explosion. They were rescued with but little diff ficulty.
 Mine officials claim that the explo- sion was caused by a very heavy shock in robbing the pockets and that the dust ignited. The Tidewater mine. however is below the Elkhorn River bed and outsiders familiar with the mine doubt that dust lighting theory.
 The Tidewater mine is located about two miles from Vivian, West Virginia about thirty miles from Bluefeld ana Is owned and operated by the Tidewater Coal and Coke Company.

Situation Com plicated.

Kansas City. July 5.--Late today the creditors committee of the C. J. Devlin estate drafted an address. which was immediately forwarded to all the cred itors of the Devlin properties asking that they meet at Kansas City on July 10 to consider the situation and urging that in the meantime no action be taken.
 Alex New of the firm of attorneys for depositors. who today filed bank nuptcy proceedings at Topeka, said that the situation was so complicated that 1t would be impossible to make any intelligent forecast of the final result.
 It was absolutely necessary, he said. to take some step to preserve the as- sets and prevent preferences by at tachment or otherwise and for this req son the bankruptcy proceedings were brought.

Rivermen Up In Arms
Against Wharfage Tolls

cruing to towns and cites by hav-
ing the competition afforded by
the packets and other craft to
offset whatever monopoly the
railroads may enjoy in the towns.
Col. John l.. Vance, president
of the Ohio Valley Improvement
association, addressed a meeting
in East Liverpool last week on
the subject and drew a parallel
between the monopoly enjoyed by
the one railroad in the town and
the river interests.
New Orleans has abolished all
wharf charges, effective the first
of this year, as also has St. Louis.
The rivermen say that the small
towns where the freight received
does not warrant the payment OF
any charges are especially active
in taxing the boats that land.
