TRIED 10 CORRUPT
 AN OHIO COURT
A Charge Against Former Boss
 George B. Cox.

Cincinnati. ohio, March 1O.-Two judges of the circuit court in testf- mOny before the Drake investigation committee of the state senate today charged that Geo. B. Cox. formerly republican leader in Hamilton county. had triedsto influence the Judgment of that cour- in a suit involving a two hundred thousand dollar bond, while the third judge testified that Cox had simply asked him that the case be given fair and impartial hearing when it came up on an appeal.
 The testimony came at the close of a day devoted to testimony regarding the purchase of turnpikes. much of it or comparatively minor importance. The judges Of the circuit court had been sUbpoenaed as witnesses, the general understanding being that they were to appear with personal inter est in -one or another of the turnpikes The examination however took an entirely different turn.
 Judge Jelke of the circuit court was the first witness. Attorney RoetIinger called his attention to the suit brought in 1890 by the city against the Lane and Bodley company and the American Bonding company for $50, GOO for an alleged default as contract or Tn building the city water works, in whicn the lower court had given judg- ment for S23S.571 and asked 'I want to ask you if an effort was made to influence the judgment of the court in the final disposition of this case? o.
 Judge Jelke reDlied: 'I can only speak for myself; 1 cannot speak for my colleagues. I do not know that I was sent for, but I called on MT. Cox in his office. MT. Cox said to me: Judge, that Lane and Bodley case is coming up for a hearing in your court. l wish you would find some way of re- versing it I said MT Cox. that case will be tried on it's record just like any other case
 What did Mir. Cox say in replyc''

REBATES ADMITTED
 ON THE BIG FOUR
A Confession by the General Freight
 Agent.

Cincinnati, March 10.-That the Big Four railroad had paid cash rebates for 9 shipment of steei from Pittsburg to Kansas City and had otherwise favored shippers. was testified to to- day by General Freight Agent Geo. II. Ingalls, in the hearing before the inter state commerce commission. T. F. Connor, general agents of the road in this city, after being promised immun- ity from prosecution for anything that he might disclose, said that a large number of shippers were permitted to ship over his road at their own state ment of the weight shipped.
 MT. Ingalls, was then called and claimed the same immunity granted to MT. ConnOr. Ingalls, said he under stood that coal had been shipped at weights less than actual weight. so that the difference caused a reduction in earnings of from $S to S9 per car. Being pressed for a specific instance where any traffic on his system had been carried at less than published rates, Mir. Ingalls, said: We carried a shipment of steel from Pittsburg to Kansas City last year at less than the tariff"
 Mir. Ingalls, declared a cash rebate had been paid. The witness was un- able to give further instances from memory. but expressed a willingness to give any facts he could obtain if So ordered The commission then issued a sweeping order directing MT. Ingalls, to give all facts in a sworn statement showing all rebates paid within the last two years. He was then excused.

The speaker said he was confident he would beat it His pro gram is to have the republicans adopt motion to non concur in the senate amendments and thus send the bill to a conference committee.
 When told that Representative Bab- cock, who led the insurgent move when the Hamilton bill was before the house. had stated that there would be enough republicans with tne democrats to adopt a motion to accept the senate bill Mir Cannon refused to make any comment. Some of the republican, leaders in the house wlo had a confer cnee with the speaker declared that the insurgents would not have as many votes for the senate bill as they had before and that Jhe speaker would have a good working majority back Of him in his statehood program.
 MT. Cannon intmated that the bill could not come before the house be- fore Morch 19. He referred to an ar rangement made with the members of the rivers and harbors committee that the bill would not be brought up in their absence.
 The members of that committee are on tour of the south investigating proposed river and harbor improve ment projects and they will not return until the last of the week.

Nearly Twelve Hundred Men EntOmbed By
 an Explosion
There IS Believed to Be No Possible Hope That Any of That Number Have Escaped Death Either by Flames Suffocation.

Paris Mar. 1O.-A mine catastrophe Of incalculable horror and magnitude has stricken the great coal center of northern France An explosion at o'clock this morning carried destruc- tion throughout the net work of coal mines centered at Courrieres, and fire followed the explosion, making rescue difficult and almost impossible.
 Intense excitement and confusion in the vicinity prevented early estimates or the exact loss of life, but a dis patch received here at 4:35 D. m. gave 1.404 miners entombed and probably lost At S:25 o'clock this evening a brief dispatch from Lille announced the total of 1,193 dead.
 All France has been profoundly shocked by the magnitude of the dis aster which is said to be the greatesc in the history of continental mining. President Fallieres sent his secretary accompanied by Minister of Public Works Gautier and Minister of the In terior Dubieff on special train to the scene of the disaster. The ministerial crisis was temporarily forgotten, sena- tors and deputies joining in the uni versal public manifestations of sor row.
 The scene of the catastrophe Is the 4i4AA4lllS lCSlOn near l<eilS. III Inc Qe partment- Of Pas de Calais Here are nuddled small hamlets of the mine workers. who operate the most pro ductive coal mines in France. .Chc subterranean chambers form a series of tcnnels.
 Six of the outlets are near Lens and the others at Courrieres. Verdun and many other points. The output of these mines is particularly combustible and is largely used in the manufacture .'f gas and in smelling. About 2,OO0 min CTS work the group of mines, and, with their families. make population of from 5000 to 5000 souls
 The catastrophe took place shortly after 1.795 men had descended into the mine this morning. There was a deaf ening explosion, which was followed by cages and mining apparatus being hurled from the mouth of the Cour rieres.
 Immediately following the explosion flames burst from the mouth of the pit, driving back those without, who

YIELDING
 PLACE IN SIGHT
The Most Favorable Day at the Mo-
 rOCcan Conference.

London, March 1O.-The couciliatory attitude of the Germans at the AIge- ciras conference today is favorably commented upon here by officials, who now believe that a settlement of the questions between Germany and France is assured. On Friday it was feared that Germany would insist on her sug- gestion that an officer of a third power be appointed inspector of police and have authority over the French and Soanish officers.
 It is now thought that Germany will agree to what will practically be Franco-Spanish control of the gen darmerie. Thus far the results attain ed are considered to be a victory for the Anglo-French contentious. the con- sessions made not affecting the Driu. ciDles for which France is fighting.
