FIGHTERS
CORNER

You often hear the fight fans
say: whats become Of Barney
Mullin?" If there is one fighter in
the country who will give a chap
his undershirt If he Is broke it Is
that same Irishman. Mullin is a
fighter of the rough-house order. He
kind of dropped out of sight when
Rufe Turner slammed him in the
kitchen department at Sacramento
and there was more than one good
friend of his who was sorry. Give
Barney equal going and time to
warm up and he will exchange
wallops with any Of them. He has
been greatly handicapped all along
by poor management, an instance
of which was when he was signed
to fight Kid Parker at 1876 pounds.
Imagine a man with his frame max
ing that weight and putting up a
fight! He is fully five feet nine
inches tall and has a frame that he
has been known to put $50 pounds
of meat on. But the Irish lad has
bobbed up again. He is to fight
Jack Cordell at Santa Rosa, Cal,
April 20, and the weight will be 1873
pounds. Biddy Bishop will second
Mullin in this fight. Cordell is clev-
er and will make Barney and his
whirlwin, or rather windmill"
style hustle.

One of the funniest remarks that
ever came from the lips of a fighter
was made by Ike Weir, the Belfast
Spider, who was one of the tough

Weir and Tommy Warren were
fighting at Minneapolis. Warren
was pounding Weir all over the ring
in the first few rounds of the fight
His seconds called him down at the
end of the third round, in the fol
lowing manner: Weir, why in the

gree and forgery in the third degree by
Frederick A. Burnham, president,
George d. Eldridge, first vice president,
and George Burnham, Jr., second vice
president of the Mutual Reserve Life
Insurance company, We're found by the
grand jury Thursday. Nm all, five in
dictments were brought against each
officer, two for grand larceny and three
for forgery. The alleged larceny and
forgery was brought about, according
to the indictments, by payments OF
$4,000 of the company's money to law
firms, the apparent purpose of which is
alleged to have been to settle claims
against the company, while the real
object is alleged to have been to settle
actions which had been brought against
officers of the company as individuals.
The indictments on which a charge of
larceny is based alleged that the Off :
GERS embeZzled two sums, one of 81 500
and the other Of 81 800, on October "a,
1901. The three officers appeared in tlnr

REJECT MINERS DEMANDS.
Operators Refuse to Raise Wages
or to Recognize the
Union.

New York, March ia fiat refusal
to grant the miners demands has been
made by the committee representing
the anthracite coal operators. The
miners are told the companies will not
grant shorter working day, will not
increase the wage scale and will not
hold back from each workman's pay
his union dues. Undying adherence to
the open shop" policy is proclaimed
by the operators. Having made these
propositions in plain language, the
mine owners committee suggests that
the awards made by the anthracite
coal strike commission, the principles
upon which they were established by
the commission and the methods es-
tablished for carrying out their find
ings and awards shall be continued for
a further term of three years from the
first day of April, 1906. The present
agreement terminates March 81 of this
year

DISASTER IN FRENCH MINE.
Explosion Followed by Fire Causes
Loss of Over LOO
Lives

Paris, March l2.-As result OF Q
terrific explosion of gas, followed by
quickly spreading flames, 1,193 miners
lost their lives in the coal pits of the
Courrires district on the Pas-de-Ca-
lais Saturday. Shortly before the dis
aster 1,795 men had descended the
shafts to begin their days work, and
only COZ of them have come up.
Driven back repeatedly by the fire
and poisonous vapors, the rescuers
have given up hope of bringing out
any of the others alive. The spectacle
attending the scene was fearful. Great
crowds of weeping women and chill
dren gathered to ascertain the fate Of
male members of their families, i'm
ploring the officials for news as to
loved ones.
The last great mine disaster in
France occurred in 1885, when 293 per-
sons were killed and 80 injured; but
that and all others sink into insignif!-
canoe before Courrieres.
