THE defense relied upon by Captain
Wynne," says Mr.. TheaIl, lis that of
intense aggravation brought about by
the manner in which he received the
orders to appear on deck. The average
officer would have been greatly aggra-
waited. Inundated and irritated over the
idea of a junior officer of his command
accompanied by two enlisted men of
his own command, appearing at the
door of his StaterOOm with orders 10

The court-martial of Captain Wynne.
which was suspended yesterday at the
request of the judge advocate. was re-
sumed today. DR.. J. c. Decker. sur
geon of the Alabama, testified that
Captain Wynne Is not insane: not
weakminded to the extent of being i'm
becilic, but that his sense of right and
wrong is not normal.
DR.. F. NJ Furlong was nut on the
stand by the judge advocate. He said
he treated Captain Wynne at Guantan-
amo in 1903 for the most severe head
ache he ever knew of. When he spoke
soothingly to Wynn the witness said
Wynne cursed him for not affording
him instant relief. At that time Cap
tain Wynne was normal except for ex-
treme irritability.

Profession ereeds Graft.

The use of governmental power for
private purposes is the beginning of
what is today called graft. Such use Of
governmental power creates a distinct
class in the country with interests spe-
Cial and apart from the interests COM
mon to their fellow citizens. The -bene-
ficiaries of governmental power uncon-
Sciously come to regard their own Pc
CuliaT privileges as Of paramount pub
lie concern. They come to COUntenance
and even support other abuses and mis-
chiefs in government so long as their
own special advantages are conserved.
The result of this old system Of farm

been to bring into the republic 4 con-
federaCy Of special privileges that it

NO wonder in view Of the present an

The fire which caused the trouble

This was believed to be under control
after a long, hard fight. At 7:30 this
morning the first rescue party started
down No. incline, proceeding eau
tiousIy as it was found thai there were
still traces of the fire. When they
reached a depth of 1000 feet all were
overcome. Seven managed to struggle
back to where they could be reached.

burst from No. incline and the air
in No. was so foul that volunteer

o'clock another rescue party was
formed. business and tOwnspeopIe vol

were reversed and the smoke forced

It is believed that the injured will
entirely recover. Farther down the
incline six other bodies were found. all
beyond hope of restoration to life. Sew

them Pitt Boss Haggerty, were over
come during the day but were restored
and Haggerty returned to the work of
rescue. It is believed that all bodies
have been removed from the mine. The
work Of fighting the fire is now being
pushed.
The state coal mine inspector and 10
cal officers OF the company are on the
ground and characterize the work of
the rescuers as brave to the point of
foolhardiness.

flames had been completely extin-
