ENT0MBED MEN
WERE RESCUED
AFTER BEING SHUT OFF FROM
ESCAPE FOR TWENTY DAYS.
WERE ALMOST FAMISHED.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Lens. France, March 3O.-Fourteen
miners entombed in the Courriers
mine on March 10th were taken alive
from the mine today by an exploring
party. The men lived twenty days
shut off from light and almost de-
prived of air.
Vita one exception the men were
all rescued, although they could not
have lived much longer in their pris-
on under the earth. The searching
party were exploring the mine when
they heard a noise and calling were
answered by the men. The eXplor-
ers went to work and soon had an
opening made to the place where the
men were imprisoned. When the
miners were cut off from escape they
took refuge in a mule stable in the
mine. They subsisted at first on the
lunches of their dead comrades, and
then ate the wheat and oats and
other feed for the mules.
A boy fourteen years of age was
among those rescued and his com.
rades said he endured the hardship.
with wonderful courage.

NO NEW DEVELOPMENTS.
Negro Fiend Who Made Attack on
Young Lady Still at Large.

The negro brute who made the at
tack Wednesday night on an limo
cent and defenseless white girl, and
who was only prevented from accom-
plishing his hellish purpose by being
frightened away. is still at liberty.
One or two arrests OF suspicious char.
acters have been made today, but so
far nothing has developed to estab-
fish any connection with the attempt
ed crime.
Would it not be a good idea for
about a hundred men to offer $40
each to the reward already offered
by Sheriff Watts for the capture of
this black fiend?

Guthrie, Ok, Dec. 15.--A feature of the session Friday of the constitu- tional convention here was an address or railway rate legislation by Hon. Oscar B. Colquitt, a member of the Texas railroad commission. Mr Col quit declared that while the Texas railroad commission act is a good law, rate legislation in Texas has been a failure except in producing uniform ity. and he quoted Mir Mayfield of the same commission as acknowledged ing that it had been almost fail- ure"
 Commenting the efforts of Presi- dent Roosevelt. Mir Colquitt said that if strong men were kept on the In- terstate Comerce commission and the courts did not nullify their work, the Hepburn rate bill might satisfy the people; otherwise. he believed Roose- welt would become the ''fore-runner of Bryan"
 Tt is my deliberate judgment" said Mir. Colquitt, after exhaustively re- viewing railroad regulation in Texas, 'that the principal, if not the only substantial good the commission law of 1 Texas, as administere@ has done the people Is the giving to them--to each person and place-uniform rates. Talk ing the staple products of the state, I think 1t safe to say that the rates now in effect and against which the roads are protesting in the courts as being too low, are the highest of most any state In the Union, unless 1t is the Rocky Mountain and Pacific states. This condition is not the fault of the law. The law is perhaps the best ever enacted upon the subject. Our power is almost complete. And yet say to you that while in other re- spects the Texas railroad commission law is success if vigorously en- forced, yet as a rate making power have been forced to the conclusion that it is very largely failure.
 Much of the trouble. he declared, was in the incorporation laws of the state. He suggested that Oklahoma could guard against this by distin- gushing in its constitution between "the citizen" and the artificial per- son" Also that the Oklahoma com mission should be clothed with judi cial power and that the constitution should provide for the purchase Of the railroads by the state at their market value in the event the rail- roads should attempt to enjoin the rates by resorting to the federal l courts.
 Declaring that rate regulation had

THE FRENCH SITUATION.
Resistance of the Clergy will be Purely Passive, and no Trouble is
 Anticipated.

Paris. Dec 15.-The first day of the regime of the separation of church and state having passed with out grave disorders, public interest in the details of the continuation Of the struggle Is already Tagging. It is now apparent that the resistance of the clergy will be purely passive and that there is no prospect of re- ligious passions being aroused un- less the churches are closed and the government therefore is resting on it's oars and will continue to do so until parliament authorizes the dras- tic measures which the cabinet is preparing.
 In the meantime in this city, ex- cept in the churches where legal ap- plieations were filed, the police again took notes of miraculous of the law at the morning masses.
 Cardinal Richard is awaiting expul- sion from the episcopal mansion, The government however desires to avoid even the appearance of force in the case of the aged primate, who is in bad health and is postponing action in the hope that he will depart in a few days, of his own volition.
 The Action, violent socialist or gan, Friday made an attack on the government, calling attention to the alleged fact that the Catholic gym nastic societies had numbers of rifles. There is not the slightest evi- dence however that armed resistance is contemplated.

BACK TO OLD STYLE.
President Agrees to Rescind His Simpli- fled Spelling Order to The Public
 Printer.


 Washington, Dec. 15.-presvdent Roosevelt will withdraw his simpli- lied spelling order to the public prin- ter and hereafter all documents from the executive departments will again be printed in the old fashioned style.
 Representative I.andis of the joint committee on spelling had confer ence Thursday with the president when the president said that he did not wish to have spelling overshadow matters of great importance and ex- pressed willingness to revoke his order for the new spelling in case the house of representatives should go on record as opposed to the sys- tenn. Accordingly late Thursday after noon MT. Landis introduced the fol. lowing resolution in the house:
 Reform spelling was put into effect by the president during the recess of congress, and all public documents supplied to the executive departments have been printed in the simplified way. These documents have been pouring in on congress ever since the opening day. much to the dissatisfac- ton of members of the house, As result the government printing office was using two forms of spelling, the old method for congress and the re- form method in executive documents The committee on printing in it's ia vorable report on the Landls resof ton stated that the committee had been governed by the following con siderations:
 What probably will be the last act of the house of representatives on the subject of simplified spelling occurred Friday when on motion of Represen- tative Tawney, chairman of the con- mittee on appropriations, the house without debate or division struck out of the legislative, executive and judi cial bill the provision relative to spelling. The action was taken be- cause of the promise of the president to revoke his order to the public printer and the consequent adoption of Thursdays resolution on this sub ject.

AMENDMENTS TO APPROPRIATION ACT
Members of the Cabinet. Vice President and Speaker of the House of Represen- tatives to Get &I2,00O Each per Year Defeated Proposition to Increase Pay of Members of H ouse and Senate.

Washington, Dec. 15.-Representa- tive Efttauer, of New York, Friday offered the following amendment to the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation act under consideration in the house.
 "On and after March 4th, 1907, the compensation of the speaker of the house of representatives and vice pres- ident of the United States shall be at the rate of $12,000 each"
 By vote of PA to 51 the amend ment was adopted. the opposition fail- ing to secure votes enough to have the yeas and nays called.
 Representative Littauer also intro- duced an amendment to the legisla- tive appropriation bill increasing the salaries of the members of the presi- dents cabinet to $12,000 each, effect i've on and after March 4. 1907.
 On division the amendment was adopted, 204 to 60, the opponents of the measure falling again to secure votes enough to have the yeas and nays calleu.
 Representative Littauer also offered an amendment increasing the salaries of senators, representatives in con- gress and delegates from territories to $7,500 per annum, which compensa- tion shall be in lieu of all other pay and allowance except actual individ- ual travelling expenses from their homes to the seat of government and return by the most direct route of usual travel once for each session of the house to which such senator, mem- Der or delegate belong, to be certified to under his hand to the disbursing officer and filed as voucher" The real test and temper of the house was taken on this amendment when a yea and nay vote was called. On rising vote after considerable debate the amendment was defeated, by vote of 135 to 161. On a yea and nay vote the house refused to in- crease the salaries of its members The result being: Ayes 107; nays 1SS.

failed fin Texas, because the commits sion has heretofore compromised with the railroads and has not given the courts an opportunity to pass upon the reasonableness of the commissions rates, Mr. Colquitt said he hoped that in the suit now pending against the Texas commission, opportunity would be given for proving the reasonable ness of rate and for establishing q doctrine different from that contended for by the lawyers in construing the Nebraska case He also hoped that Oklahoma would frame constitution and law which would show that gov- ernment regulation of railroads can be made successful.
 In speaking of the Hepburn rate law, MT. Colquitt said that Roosevelt. with a master mind and hand. fore saw that something must be done,' and that ( if strong, courageous men are kept on the commission and their actions are not negatived by appli- cations of the railroads to the courts , for restraining orders, the country may be contented. But if the reverse takes place, then 1t will not surprise me If Roosevelt does not become the fore-runner of Bryan and preparer of the way for different solution of the transportation question"
 MT. Colquitt was an advocate of railroad regulation in Texas, when that cause was championed by the late Gov Hogg. He is the first man in public life prominent in Texas to declare that 1t has been failure in results.
