Twanty-Seven Men Entombed.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. g.
Twenty-seven men are still entombed
in Parel mine, near Oakhill, Fayette
county, in the Loup Greek field,
where an explosion occurred yester-
day at noon. It is known that thirty
nine men were in the mine and there
may have been more, as work was
done by contract and no rolls kept.
Twelve escaped. The majority of
the men are negroes and HuDgarians.
1t is not believed any of the entomb-
ed men are alive. The ventilation
fans were wrecked by the force of
the explosion and the circulation of
air through the mine stopped so that
no one with any hope Of, living can
venture in until the fans are repaired
and get to working again. This will
be some time today.

Tillman o. Morgan Bill.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Comment-
ing today on the passage by the house
of the Morgan bill, Senator Tillman
remarked that the members of the
present Legislature appear to be emu
lating their predecessors who were
elected in 1890 and have since been
known as the ''driftwocd legislature"
Il note that Mr.. Dabbs, of whom
I have never heard before. is very
uneasy for fear will do something
next summer, and that feeling on his
part must be due to consciousness
that onditions are being produced
that would warrant some talk For
instance, on mr.. Hamels motion to
sub ,titua straight prohibition bill
the vote was 21 in favor of aud II
against We thus have proof that
there are 21 avowed prohibitionisis
in the legislature, and only 81. Yet
81 conscientious God-fearing gentle
men have voted for license provision
permitting Charleston to reopen
whiskey shops in that city and this
is done evidently in carrying out
bargain to get Charleston's vote to
kill the State dispensary.
"rhe first agreement was to have
Wholesale liquor dealers in Charles
ton as we'll as retail, but that fright
ened the leaders of this conspiracy
against the dispensary and the whole
sale provision was struck out. With
cut Cbarlestoh's nine voted the Nor
gan bill would have been defeated by
msjority Of two votee, so if the
State dispensery is abolished at this
session it will be done by a dirty
bargain between the old barroom
element in Charleston and these 21
prohibitiocists. 81 think it is very
nice text upon which to preach some
good honest politics next summer
and if my health continues as good
as it is now, / shall certainly feel
called upon to oppose that and a
great many other shortcomings and
mysterious TRANSACTIONS that have
been transpiring in the legislature of
iats. X
sWhat about the investigating
committees recent Investigations"
"Phat only exennplifos the need of
arousing the people. I have noticed
in the debates constant alIusions to
the State dispensary> as that damn
able thing on the Copgaree. I want
to ask who is responsible for the
manageme ent of the State dispensary?
The board of directors, of course.
Who elected the board of directors?
The legislature How many of the
men who have voted in the house of
representatives to kill the State dis.
pensary voted for the directors who
were responsible for the label steal?
VINO appointed the county board of
Spartanburg where there has been
the most scandals and corruption in
the local management? The mem
bers Of the Legislature from Spartan
burg. Do these gentlemen in the
Legislature imagine the people are all
fools and that they will not next
Summer hold to a strict account
those who without Instructions from
them presume to destroy the State
dispensary, sacrificing several hun-
dred thousand dollars worth of pro-
pert,?'
Senator will you canvass the
State on the whiskey issue next sum-
mer?"
Il certainly will whether the Nor.
gan bill is passed or not"

personal popularity, and the fact
that he is perhaps better known
