PRussIAN MINE DISASTER.
A Lamp Exploded by the CareIessness
 of Boys.

Dortsmund, Prussia, July 10-A fire has broken out in the Borrussia coal mine, caused by the careless handling of a lamp by boys. The lamp explod- ed, igniting the timbers of the shaft. which burned rapidly. Two hundred and fifty miners escaped through an airshaft, but thirty-nine were cut off and their death is regarded as certain.
 The work of rescue is attended with great danger owing to the presence of poisonous gases and six of the rescu- CTS are reported missing. The ground over the mine is sinking gradually with a sound like that of thunder as the supporting timbers of the mine are being burned away. Great crowds of women and children are standing about the mine in a drenching rain hoping for the rescue of husbands and fathers.

No Reply to the Proposal
 for an ArmiStiCe
MADE TEN DAYS AGO
It Is Believed There Will Be None Until the Japs Arr Firmly Re-estab- lishSd in Sakhalin, Which They Surrendered Forty Years Ago.

St. Petersburg, July 10.-AIthough ten days have elapsed since Russia in- formed President Roosevelt of her will ingness to conclude an armistice pend ing the result of the Washington con ference Japan so far as known to the Russian government has not deigned to reply to the presidents communi- cation. When the question of an arm istice was first preached by the pres ident it is understood that Japan indi- cated that she would decline to agree to suspension of hostilities until the plenipotentiarfes met. Russia agreed in principle to this as the basis for negotiation. Since then the Russian government feels it has given ample proof of its desire to conclude peace and it is possible it may go a step fur ther. But the impression here is that the Japanese having made descent on the island of Sakhalm they are de- termined to get the island firmly in their grasp before negotiations begin. This is cn easy task as the small Russian force on the island is in no position to contest its occupation.
 In addition to marines and infantry the Japanese landed artillery and cavalry. The latter are moving rapid ly north. The presumption here is that the Russian troops will clear out with out fighting, crossing to AIexandrovsk on the main land. The Novosti says it considers Sakhalin a second Alaska, worth ten billion dollars. It is possible however, that Japan might agree to suspend hostlities in Manchuria al- though the latest reports from there create a strong impression that Field Marshal Oyama is at last advancing for a decisive blow.

Japan Repairing a Bad Bargain of
 Forty Years Ago.

Tokio, July 1.-Announcement of the landing of a Japanese force at Sak- halin Island and the occupation Of KarsalSorsk followed by the northern flight of the garrison. has been receiv- ed with great satisfaction by the Jap anese. The landing of the army at SakhaIin marks the first entry of Japanese upon Russian territory pro- per. The Japanese have expressed themselves pleased to be again in pos session of the island, declaring that they have long felt that the bargain under which they relinquished the place forty years ago was unsatisfact- ory. The Japanese express the belief that they will speedily control the en- tire island. as they regard the garri- son there as being incapable of serious resistance and are confident that 1t will cemainly be captured.
