STARVATION FOR
ENTOMBED MINER
PRISON CANNOT BE REACHED
FOR AT LEAST ONE YEAR.

Mahoney City, Pa, Nov. 11.-Alive
and unhurt, but in darkness that will
never be lifted, Michael McCabe, a
miner, is awaiting certain death by
starvation being under the surface of
the earth in the Draper colliery near
here.
While McCabe was at work he fired
blast that blew away one of the
mine pillars. He fled In the wrong
direction and got into blind shaft.
A fellow workman managed to get out
of that wing of the colliery before the
roof caved in. The mine break ex-
tends to the surface, where it yawns
60 feet wide right in front of McCabe's
home, where his wife and six children
vainly hope for his rescue.
The officials say it will be year
before it will be possible to reach the
place where the man is shut up.

WHILE EN- ROUTE TO THIS CITY
FROM MUssELsHELL.
FOOLED THE ROBBERS
Egan and stonebraker Are Gruffly
Asked IL They Have Anything by
TWO Highwaymen and They Give
Up $6.5o-stargazins.

]. B. Egan and w. L.. Stonebraker,
two well known knights of the grip,
who made their headquarters in this
city, had an experience last Sunday
night which, they say, will long re-
main in their memories. Both of
the men were held up by two high
waymen about 40 miles north Of here,
while en- route to this city from Mus
selshell, where they had been calling
on some customers. The robbers re-
ceived but $3.50 as result of their
midnight work, however, and made
away.
Mr.. Egan in telling the story says
that both of the men were mounted,
and that while he and MT. Stonebrak-
er were driving leisurely along the
road the two men accosted them by
saying, Have you got anything?" He
says that he knew by the tone of their
voices that they meant business, and
that they both informed the men that
they had a little.
Were Not Masked.
One of the men dismounted and
stood at the horses heads while the
other took $3.50 away from Egan and
$4 away from his companion Egan
says that he did not think the men
were masked, but the darkness made
this precaution unnecessary. He was
not certain whether they had guns or
not, as he stated that he was looking
at the sky most Of the time.
Mr.. Stonebraker fooled the high
waymen cleverly. He had purse
containing more than $10O on his per-
son, but succeeded in getting this out
Of his pocket unobserved and when
the opportunity presented itself, he
dropped the purse beside him in the
road. After the robbers had made
what they considered a thorough
search, they proceeded on their way,
as did the two victims of their crime,
but Egan and Stonebraker returned
and picked up the purse containing
the money
Owing to the darkness neither of the
men are able to furnish a description
OF the highwaymen. !,

pull his head out Of the water, which
was about eight inches deep.

CONGESTION IN TRAFFIC FORCES
ACTION.
TO MOVE FREIGHT
State Railroad Commission Grants
Permission to Northern Pacific to
Discontinue Local Trains From Llv-
ingston West for 90 Days.

Helena, Nov. 1.-THE state board
of railroad commissioners today is
sued an order permitting the Northern
Pacific railroad to withdraw passen-
ger trains Of the second class between
Helena and Livingston, Logan and
Butte, and Missoula and Spokane.
The order permits the withdrawal Of
the trains for a period of 80 days
from November 8, and it is stated
therein that the action is taken for the
purpose of giving the railroad com
pany an opportunity to relieve the
freight congestion in coal, wheat, lum-
Der and other commodities.
The order of the railroad commits
sion gives the Northern Pacific per-
mission to take off trains No. Z and 5,
between Helena and Livingston, and
trains Nos. II and is, between Logan

are simply "stubs" which serve most
ly local traffic, and according to an
official of the Northern Pacific here,
their removal will not inconvenience
the through traffic at all and will
make no difference to Billings. 1t will
still be possible to take No. 3 or No.
5 here, and arrive in Butte the
same time as formerly, and the pas
senger who takes No. / will not find
himself inconvenienced by the re
moval of the stub trains mentioned
But one train has been removed
between Missoula and Spokane and
that is another stub which is of little
Importance. Officials maintain that
the discontinuance of the stubs will
give them chance to clear the road
Of freight without iniuring the passen-
ger service to any appreciable ex-
tent.
The order of the commission does
not effect trains z and 8 between Bill
ings and Livingston, those trains sim
ply being discontinued beyond Liv-
ingston.

FIRST CARGO. OF SHINGLES.
Seattle VIII Ship Boat Load to Texas
Via San Francisco.

For the first time in the history of
local lumber movements, a ship will
sail from Puget Sound with a cargo
Of shingles anly, says Seattle News,
The steamship Olympia, Capt. Alfred
Croskey, is now at Bellingham load
ing a shipment of 100000 shingles
which have laid in dry kilns since
last August because Of the owners
inability to secure rail transportation.
The shingles will be taken to San
Francisco and shipped by rail over
the Southern Pacific to points in
Texas. The freight bill on this large
cargo Of shingles from Bellingham
to San Francisco will be $1S,750.
The rail rate from San Francisco
to Texas points is s1.30 more per
thousand than the rate from Bell
inEham to Texas.
Captain Croskey states that the
shingle men nave despaired of Sc
curing cars and have taken this
means of shipping shingles at an
enormous financial sacrifice.
