ONLY 1900 in CASH FOUND.
Cashier a Suicide and Receiver Appointed
For Bank.

Richmond, Ind. (SpeciaD.-J. A. Spe-
kenhier was appointed receiver of the
Commercial Bank of Hagerstown, Ind,
on application of President Frank Ma
son. The liabilities exceed 500, 900, while
the assets are given as much less than
that amount.
The cashier, John Bowman, committed
suicide Monday, and this action led to
the present receivership. Following the
suicide an investigation was made, the
affairs of the bank having been almost
exclusively in Bowman's hands. Accord
ing to statement given out before the
application for the receiver, only $1,000
in cash was found, although the assets
are believed to be nearly $4,000. The
reason for Bowman's suicide has not
yet been developed.

Japan Wants China to Keep Ont OF It.

Washington, D. c. (SpeciaD .-China's
request to be represented in the Wash
ington conference on the ground that
she is vitality interested in its proceed
ings has been received by the President
and informally transmitted to the bel
ligerents. Whether the President has
received the formal replies cannot be
learned, but it can be stated that, while:
Russia is inclined to favor the sugges-
ton, Japan will not consent to it.
Japan has already made public her as
surances that Manchuria is to be return
ed to China. That is one of the prin-
ciples for which she says she has been
fighting.
Japan regards herself as fully capable
of executing this promise without the as
sistance of China, and in view of China's
inability before the war to cope with Rus
STA in Manchuria, the Japanese govern
ment is unable to see what possible serv-,
ice Chinese representative would be in
the Washington conference.

DYNAMITE KILLS EIGHT
Premature Explosion Causes a Catas-
trophe.
TERRIFIC FORCE OF THE EXPLOSION.
Accident Occurred Near the Scene Of the
Other Disaster at fiarrisburg-The Men
We're Preparing for Blast, but 10 Some
Unaccountable Way an Explosion Occurred
and the Victims Were Blown to Pieces.

Harrisburg, Pa (SpeciaD One hum
dred pounds or more of Contractor H.
S. Kerbaugh's rock powder exploded
directly across the Susquehanna road
from the scene of the big wreck OF May
IL, when a carload of the same contrac-
tors explosive wrecked Pennsylvania
Railroad express train and killed 20 pas
sengers. The explosion killed eight peo-
pie and injured two. All the victims
were employees of Contractor Kerbaugh,
and were at work on new Pennsylvania
freight line across the river from South
Harrisburg. The dead are:
James Wiseman, aged so, shooter
boss" of 90 Front avenue, Buffalo, N: Y.
Arthur Green, colored, rs years old, a
steam driller, of Harrisburg.
Robert Thompson, colored, aged 20
years, steam driller's helper, of Harris
burg.
Frank Mulluch, Slav, aged As.
Three Italians and one Slav known
only by numbers.
The injured are:
William Reed, colored, 20 years old, a
steam driller; skull fractured and hurt
internally, at Harrisburg Hospital.
G. c. Miller, aged So, of 1daville, Pa. !;
bruised, but not serious.
The men were preparing for what is
called a big shoot" to be fired early in
the morning, consisting of series of
blasts, the charges being set off 81
simultaneously. Five holes had been filled
with the explosive and the men were at
work on the sixth, when it let go. Prob
ably sand got into the hole, and the iron
bar with which the men were Stamping
down the charge caused spark by
scraping on the sand. John Shelter, a
fireman, working about some dinky en-
gines $50 feet away, says:
"There was one shock, then two heav-
ier shocks, and after that all / could
see was shower of falling rocks and
fragments of human bodies"
Shelter was turned completely over two
or three times by the explosion. An
Italian water boy, IL years old, on his
way to the men with bucket of water,
was hurled so feet away and every stitch
of clothing was torn from his body. J..
c. Miller, sitting 200 feet from the blast,
was blown rs feet
Wiseman's body, frightfully mangled,
was identified only by the fact that he
dyed his hair. His remains were found
40 feet up the hill Parts of the bodies
of two Slavs and three Italians were
found hundred feet away. One Italian
escaped because fellow-workman had
playfully snatched his hat and run with
it. The owner made after the hat and
got out of range just in time The force
of the explosion, forming vacuum, was
so great that the side of a tool shed
nearby was torn clear out and drawn 20
feet toward the blast. The explosion
shook the country for miles around and
broke many windows in South Harris
burg, across the river.

Fatal MINE EXPLOSION.
Five Men Are Killed and -Four Are Seriously
Injured.

Uniontown, Pa. Especially AS the re-
suit of an explosion at the Taylor Coal
and Coke Company's mine at Starlight,
Pa, six miles west of here, five men
were killed and four injured, one fatally.
Two of the dead were negroes and the
other three were foreigners. The men
were working about 20 feet below the
surface when the explosion occurred.
Mine Inspector l. G.. Roby, of the Fifth
district, is unable to state whether it was
due to mine gas or small tank of gaso-
line that was located at the head of the
shaft where the men were at work.
Other reports are to the effect that
the accident was caused by a prema-
ture discharge of dynamite.
A rescuing party of four miners mar
rowly escaped death while trying to To-
cate one of the victims. When 70 feet
down the shaft the concrete wall and
timbering at the top caved in, burying
the men under hundreds of tons of con-
crete and scaffolding Enough crevices
were left in the wreckage, however, to
supply them with air until they were res
cued. The men were nearly overcome
when brought to the surface.

MR.. ROOT ACCEPTS.
Formal Statement Of His Succession to John
Hay.

Oyster Bay, L. l. (Special).-Oficial
announcement was made here that Elihu
Root has been appointed Secretary OF
State.
The announcement was made on the
authority of President Roosevelt in the
following statement given out by Sec
rotary Loeb:
"Elihu Root has accepted the tender
BY the President of the Secretarysh1p OF
State. He will take the oath OF ONCE
in a couple of weeks, but it Will neces-
sarily be some little time before ne
closes UP his business affairs. He Will
not go to Washington permanently I'M
til some time in September"
President Roosevelt is much grained
at Mt. Roots acceptance and is deeply
sensible of the personal sacrihce maze
bv Mr.. Root in again taking up the Dur
dens and duties of member OF the CAB
met
The decision of Mr.. Root was reached
finally on the Presidents special tram
during the return of the Presidential
party from Cleveland, 0. For personal
reasons entertained both by the Presi-
dent and Mr.. Root, it was deemed de-
sirable not to announce the decision pub
licly until the President had returned to
Sycamore Hill. 1t is the intention OF
Mr.. Root to assume the duties OF Secre-
tary of State practically at once, al
though it will be perhaps two weeks
before he formally will take the oath
of office. His professional interests are
so large that he will have to devote
considerable time to satisfactory ar
rangement of them before he goes to
Washington to take permanent charge OF
the State Department.
When he takes active charge OF the de-
partment he will give up entirely his law
practice.
1t is not unlikely that the administra-
ton of affairs connected with the con-
struction of the Panama Canal may be
transferred from the War to the State
Department. Since Elihu Root indi-
Gated his acceptance of the President
tender of the Secretaryship of State the
President has had the matter of the
transfer under consideration. 1t is
known that Secretary Taft would be
quite willing to be relieved of the re-
sponsibility attendant upon the direc-
ton of the canal affairs.
The appointment of Judge Magoon to
be Minister of the United States to
Panama in connection with his office
as Governor of the American Zone on
the Isthmus, naturally suggests the de-
STABILITY of placing both Offices under
the direction of the Secretary of State,
and following this movement to its logi-
cal conclusion, the Secretary of State
would be the natural director of the af-
fairs of the canal Mr.. Root is deeply
interested in the canal work and already
has devoted considerable thought to it.
Washington (SpeciaD.-Elihu Roots
commission as Secretary of State has
been prepared at the State Department
and forwarded to Oyster Bay for the
Presidents signature

ment. Miss Wells alighted on her head
and was killed instantly, her neck being
broken. The father was rendered I'M
conscious and was badly cut about the
head, but his injuries are not dangerous.

JAPAN'S FLAG In RUSSIA.
Control Of SakhaIin is a Powerful
Lever.
A GREAT MOVE BY THE JAPANESE
VIII Demand Cesslon Of Island and Heavy In.
demnity-.The Russian Peace Advocates Had
Been Suggesting That Voluntary Cession Of
the Island Might Be an Offset With Port
Arthur and the Chinese Railway.

St. Petersburg (By Cable).-With the
japanese flag hosted for the first time
on Russian soil, after IS months OF,
war, the importance of the landing on
| the Island of Sakhalin is generally adj
mitted both in newspaper comment and
in government circles. Complete or
ganization of the island is regarded as
a foregone conclusion.
The Novoe Vrenlya voices the gen.
eral sentiment in holding that control OF
Sakhalin puts a powerful lever in the,
possession of Japanese diplomacy, which
finally has something tangible in its hands
to throw upon the scales with the sword
in the coming conference.
There is emergency of opinion with
regard to the effect it will have upon
the negotiations at Washington, some OF
the irreconcilables declaring that it
makes peace at the present juncture
more impossible than before, as Japan
will be able to demand the cession of
the island and heavy indemnity as
well, at which terms of peace would be
too costly, but the more prevalent view
is that Japan has now in her hands
enough trumps to take the game.
The attacks on the island certainly
dissipates one of the hopes of the peace
advocates who have been suggesting that
its voluntary cession might be an offset
with Port Arthur and the Chinese Rail-
road against the payment of large
part of all of monetary indemnity.
No further report of the landing oper-
atoms has been received.
M. Muravieff, the Russian ambassa-
dor at Rome and one of the peace plen-
ipotentiaries, has arrived in St. Peters
burg and called upon Foreign Minister
Lamsdorff. His sailing arrangements
have not been perfected, as they are de-
pendent upon the date of his audience
with the Emperor, which will probably
take place Tuesday. His suite has been
completed by the selection of two secre-
taries from the foreign office.
The Novoe Vremya joins in the press
chorus against M. Muravieff, saying it is
hard to tell how good diplomat he will
prove, as he certainly was not a success
at The Hague. The paper says that
Baron Rosen, the other plenipotentiary,
on the contrary, is skillful diplomatist,
and has been socially successful.
