were pronounced to contain per

the sale stopped, beginning today.
The order was very generally OBJ

David A. De Almond, OF Missouri
leader Of the minority opposition. cul
minated in a fist fight today on the
floor of the House of Representatives
The blows Of Representative DE Ar.
mond caused blood TO flow down the
face of Representative Williams. and
only the forcible Intervention OF
friends cut the combat short
Mr. De Almond bore away scuffed
nose.
The immediate cause Of the fight
was the passage Of the lie by Mr.. De
Almond to Mr.. Williams, resultant on
a complaint by the former that the
minority leader had broken faith in
"burying'' Representative Booher. of
Missouri, by recommending his as
signment by Speaker Cannon to the
Committee ON Coinage, Weights and
Measures.
According to the statements of the
principals, Mr.. Williams defended his
act by declaring he had been told by
Mr.. Booher's colleague, Representa-
tive Lloyd, of Missouri, that the com
mittee assignment would be salts
factory to Mr.. Booher.
Mr. De Almond bluntly questioned
the truth of the statement, and after
the failure of an effort on his part to
transfer the scene of controversy Mr..
Williams struck Mr.. De Almond a
blow in the face with his closed fist.

TWO HUNDRED MEN ARE EE.

of hope that a single one OF them
win be taken from the mines alive.

All of the thirteen bodies taken owt
up to this time were terribly mutt

This is the third mine disaster since
the first Of the month in the veins OF
bituminous coal underlying Western
Pennsylvania and West Virginia, for

Der of victims of deadly mine gas In

That this disaster does not equal or

Is due to the devotion to church DIV
ties OF a considerable number OF the
miners. In observance of the church
festival many of the more than 400
men regularly employed at the mine

Those who escaped through this
'eason are members of the Greek
