MANY MANGLED BODIES.
Victims of Stuart Mine Disaster Piled
in a Heap.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, January 31.-The
mangled and dismembered bodies of at least
thirty of the eighty or more victims Of Tues
days disaster in the Stuart mine near Thur
mond, w. Va, were piled about the foot of
the shaft when the rescuing party reached
the mine level last evening. On account of
a broken cage it was impossible at that time
to begin their removal, that gruesome work
being left for today, and only one body was
in condition for removal with the bucket
that was at first used.
Instant death appears to have overcome
all the miners and thorough investigation
will be necessary to determine the exact
cause of the disaster. That none of the
ninety men who were in the mine when the
disaster occurred escaped death now seems
certain, and the rescuing parties are look
ing for more bodies as they advance farther
into the mine.
The arrival of sixty collins and an order
for twenty-five additional gives an idea Of
the mining companys estimate of the proba-
BILE death list. The rescuiEg parties con-
tinued at work steadily through the night,
but the taking of bodies from the mine was
delayed until the mine cage, which was
wrecked by the force of the explosion, can
be repaired.
The body of John Quack. white, was taken
from the shaft in the bucket, and the cor
oner's inquest, which begins at once, will
probably be on his remains. In addition to
the investigation by the coroner. Chief Mine
Inspector Paul and Deputy Henry are max
ing an Independent investigation.

KING GOING TO FRANCE.
VII and Queen Alexandra
Plan Week in Paris.

LONDON, January 31.-King Edward
and Queen Alexandra are going to spend a
week in Paris before the opening of parlia-
ment. Their majesties start February 2.
returning probably February 0. The king
will be the guest of Sir Francis L. BERTHE
at the British embassy. while the queen
will stay with the Earl and Countess De
Grey, who have a residence in the French
capital.
There had been no previous hint Of the
trip, which is described officially as purely
personal and private. 1t is, however, re-
called that the previous visits of King Ed
ward to Paris have been followed by the
strengthening of the Anglo-French under
standing, and the general Impression is that
the interviews, which will doubtless occur
between the king and President Fallieres
and the foreign and other French ministers
during his stay at the French capital. will
assist in the extension of the understand
ing, which some observers believe will ulti-
mately result in an Anglo-French military
convention.

CONFER ON JAPANESE
CALIFoRNIANs AND PRESIDENT
DISCUSS SCHOOL QUESTION. s
New Treaty Soon to Be Negotiated
With the Toxic Government
Exclusion Of Coolies.

After two hours conference at the White
House last night regarding the Japanese
question on the Pacific coast, the Cali
fornia delegation In Congress authorized
the following statement:
"The California delegation had very full
and harmonious discussion with the Presi-
dent, the Secretary of State and the Secre-
tary Of the Navy on the serious questions
relating to the Japanese on the Pacific
coast. The character Of the discussion
leads us to feel confident that a solution
will be reached satisfactory to all con-
cerned.
1.-THE result of the meeting is that the
delegation has telegraphed to the president
of the San Francisco board Of education and
the superintendent of schools to come to
Washington at once for conference with
the President and Secretary of State.
Members of the California delegation
who participated in the conference. have
been pledged to secrecy and refuse TO taiK
of the matters discussed with the President
further than what is contained in the state
ment Of the California delegation. This
statement was given out by Representative
Hayes and was prepared in the President
office and approved by Mr.. Roosevelt.
New Japanese Treaty.
The existing treaty between the United
States and Japan will expire March II.
this year. President Roosevelt has. there
fore, assured the members Of Congress
from California that he would endeavor to
form new treaty with the Japanese en-
pire which would meet with their entire
approval and at the same time prove sat
isfactory to the Toxic government. The
Californians have in the past insisted on
an exclusion act to bar Japanese coolies
out of the United States, but 1t is limited
that as result of the conference Senators
Perkins and Flint and the members of the
House of Representatives from that state
have practically agreed to waive this de-
mand and leave 1t to President Roosevelt
to negotiate a new convention which will
keep Japanese coolie labor out of this
country. Japan has made 1t clear that she
will only consider treaty that is mutual,
and what concessions this government has
been asked to make have not been made
public.
1t is admitted at the japanese embassy
that Viscount Aok, the Japanese ambassa-
dor, has discussed the proposed treaty with
the President, and that they are in perfect
accord. The second secretary of the en-
bassy, Mr.. Hanihara, refused to say what
concessions had been promised by this gov
eminent or as to what would be satisfac-
tory to the Toxic government. He stated,
however, that Japan does not encourage
her laborers to come to this country.

months work. Upon the vouchers for this
work the government will advance a sum
sufficient to cover.
We have figured that the total cost OF
the canal will be Sl40000,000. upon which
the contractor will realize a profit of APP
proximately $l1 100000 or about double the
amount of our capital"
How long will ii take TO dig the canal?'
Under favorable conditions about six
years; under extraordinary conditions seven
years. and in the face of adverse conditions
eight years. We have made careful calcu-
latons. and we believe the plan of the gov
eminent to be not only feasible but certain
to succeed

the Measure.

In an opinion submitted to the Commits

Gently introduced in the House to amend
the practice in suits for divorce and main
tenance in the District, Corporation Coun-
sci Thomas says the provisions would be
unjust to wives and members of the bar

report unfavorably upon it. In addition to
scoring the proposed measure Mr. Thomas
contends that there is no necessity for it.
The bill was introduced by Representative
Rhinock of Kentucky. and provides that
hereafter in suits for divorce and mainte-
nance no counsel fees shall be awarded to
the wife's solicitor to be paid by the hus-
band until final judgment on the main issue
shall be rendered by the court in the wife's
favor, and that no husband shall be re-
quired to pay alimony pending litigation in
any case where the wife is in receipt of an
adequate support or has means from which
the same may be provided.
