KILLS MANY MINERS
TERRIBLE EXPLOSION OCCURS
IN A coal MINE IN WEST
VIRGINIA.

Elkins, w. Va, Feb. Cit is now
definitely known that the total number
of men in the Thomas mine at the
time of the explosion was 81, all of
whom were foreigners. One Of the
sad features of the disaster is the
death by suffocation Of Mine Boss
Daniel Jones, an experienced miner
sixty years of age. Jones was one Of
the first of the rescuers to enter the
mine and was brought up nearly dead
by his comrades. After recovering he
went in a second time and was
brought out dead from suffocation,
making the total death list thirty
eight.
So far sixteen bodies have been
taken from the NINE The drift Is a
mile in extent and it may take day
or two before it is clear enough of gas
to allow the rescuers to recover the
rest of the bodies.

WHOLLY GROUNDLESS
PRESS REPORTS OF A POSSIBLE
WAR WITH JAPAN As SENT
FROM WASHINGTON.

Washington, Feb. 2.-War with ia
pan is the remotest of possibilities.
The difference between the two coun-
tries, owing to the refusal of San
Francisco to permit Japanese pupils
to enter the public schools of that
city, never has reached the stage
where it created a fear of an armed
clash between the two countries.
Reports of possible war that have
been sent out from Washington are
not only misleading but are wholly
unjustifed by any facts in possession
of either government. The relations
between the United States and the
empire of Japan never were more cor
dial than they are today. The Japa-
nese diplomatic representatives are
we'll acquainted with the situation and
President Roosevelt has succeeded in
securing the consent of Japan to a
nasis of compromise which will settle
the whole difficulty within a year or
two, provided the people of San Fran
cisco do their part.

PROSECUTION Is Brief.
Presents States Side of Thaw Case In
Two Hours.

Presents States Side of Thaw Case In
Two Hours.
New York. Feb. 4.-The case Of the
people against Harry X. Thaw, charged
with the murder of Stanford White,
was presented to the jury in less than
two hours of the morning session OF
the trial and at the afternoon session
Attorney John B. Gleason made the
opening address for the defense.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan
outlined the case for the prosecution,
occupying less than ten minutes In
narrating in a conversational tone the
events on the night of the tragedy.
He did not go beyond the immediate
events preceding the shooting on the
Madison Square Roof Garden. The
prosecution decided to let the evidence
of actual facts prove the motive.
Before the prosecution began the
Introduction Of it's evidence District
Attorney Jerome secured from the
court and with consent of Thaw's
counsel an order that all witnesses
except experts should be excluded
from tho room.
Thaw flushed a. vivid red as Mr..
Caravan, in a loud voice, called the
name of the first witness. He was
Lawrence White, the nineteen-year-old
son of the dead architect.
AS the youth stepped to the witness
chair Thaw cast his eyes upon the
table before him and did not lift them
once during the brief examination of
the young man. Whites testimony
was unimportant. He was with his
father, at dinner the night of the
tragedy, but left him before he went
to the Madison Square Roof Garden.
The other witnesses for the prose-
cution were called in rapid order.
They were the eyewitnesses to the
tragedy and added nothing new to
what has long been familiar reading
to the public. They testified that fol-
lowing the shooting Thaw declared of
White. HE ruined my wife,"
When his wife said to him: "See
what a fix you are in,' it Is testified
that Thaw replied: "Dearie, I have
probably saved your life"

KILLED IN A WRECK
SEVEN MINERS MEET DEATH AND
A DOZEN OTHERS ARE HURT
At DIES MONIES.

Des Moines, Feb. 5.-Seven men
were killed and more than dozen
other persons injured when q coal
train was wrecked near the city linn
its. All of the victims were buried
under the wreckage and coal, which
took fire. Rescue work was prose-
cuted with difficulty and but for the
bravery of the miners uninjured by
the wreck many more lives would
have been lost in all probability.
The coal train, with about thirty
miners scattered on the several cars,
carried a number of passengers In the
caboose. Among these were two
young women schoolteachers from
Des Moines, who were severely
burned. It is feared that when the
wreckage is cleared away the bodies
of other victims will be found. All
the dead were miners.
The accident was due to a car In
the middle of the train leaving the
track and ditching the cars behind It..

CONSPIRACY CHARGED.
Grand Jury Indiets Alleged Theatrical
Trust.

Grand Jury Indicts Alleged Theatrical
Trust.
New York, Feb. 1.-The grand jury
has returned an Indictment against
the so-called theatrical trust, charg-
ing conspiracy and restraint of trade.
Tue indictment Is against Nixon &
Zimmerman, Klaw & Erlanger, Charles
Frohman and Al Hayman, who are
alleged to constitute the trust. 1t
was handed up to Judge Foster In the
court of general sessions. Alfred Lau-
terbach, of counsel for the defend
ants. was in court and at once COM
municated with several of his clients
instructing them to appear in court
to give bail.
Messrs. Frohman and Hayman are
now in Europe.
The indictment sets forth In detail
the acts Of the so-called trust and It's
efforts to prevent certain theatrical
enterprises from playing in any other
than independent theaters. Some OF
he witnesses before the grand jury
testified that in certain cases the
trust cOupe1ou tueM u udho COA
tracts with the trust" to do the book
ing of plays, charging 1919 per cent
of the net receipts for the booking.
The indictment alleges that the So
called trust controls more than 500 OF
the prominent theaters in the country.
It is charged that in these contracts
between the theaters and the men,
bers of the trust" there was q con-
spiracy in restraint of trade.

The Milky WaY.

The milky way in the heavens is
composed Of myriads Of fixed stars,
but it is not true that they have any
influence that anybody knows Of on the
direction of the wind or other element
Of the weather of the earth. Their ap-
parent changes of position are due only
to the changes Of position by the earth
in its daily and annual revolutions.
The stars in the milky way are SO far
from the earth that it takes thousands
of years for the light from them to
reach US.

Linnaeus and His Works.

How much sleep do men need? Jer-
envy Taylor was content with three
hours, Baxter with four, Wesley with
six. Bismarck and Gladstone needed
eight, but Goethe, Napoleon, Mirabeau
and Humboldt protested that they
could get along very well with less.
Linnaeus, the naturalist, was one Of
those who robbed themselves Of sleep
during their earlier years and made
up for It later In life. In his wakeful
periods during his old age he would
retire to his library, take down one Of
his own works and read it with a sigh
Of regret. "How very finer he would
murmur. "What would not have
given to be able to write book like
this!'

Expert Witness in Thaw Case Makes
Very Poor Showing.

Very Poor Showing.
New York, Feb. G-The task of
proving to jury that Harry Thaw
was insane-through heredity and
mental stress-when he shot and
killed Stanford White, was taken up
by the defense in this famous case,
but when adjournment was announced
later in the afternoon it was the gen.
eral opinion in the courtroom that but
little progress had been made.
The defense, however, got before
the twelve men in the box the testi-
mony of an expert that in his opinion
Harry Thaw was suffering from in
sanity the night of the tragedy. Mr..
Jerome undertook to break down the
evidence of the alienist, DR.. c. c.
Wiley of Pittsburg, and for three
hours put him through a cross-ex-
animation as severe as was ever
heard in any court. The prosecutor
was relentless in his attack and before
he had finished DR.. Wiley protestingly
declared: II didn't come here as an
expert. I came as witness to fact
and have been converted into an ex-
pert without being prepared for It,"
The district attorney astonished
everybody by his intimate knowledge
of medicine and it's technical phrase
ology, demonstrating the care with
which he had prepared himself to
meet the very defense which Thaw's
counsel have entered in his behalf.
Mr.. Jerome searchingly injured into
Mr.. Wiley's record as physician and
as an expert on insanity. He hurled
volleys of technical questions at the
witness who at times sat mute and at
other times gave evasive replies. Of
ton he brought upon himself sharp
warning from the district attorney to
make a reply and not an argument.

OVER SIXTY BODIES RECOVERED.
And Nearly Score Of Others Arc
Still in the Stuart Mine.

Charleston, w. Va, Feb. 2.-Reports
from the Stuart mine state that sixty
four bodies have been removed and
that at least eighteen more are known
to be still entombed. The scene at
the bottom of the shaft was a grue-
some one when the new cage made
it's first descent. All about could be
seen the mangled remains of men
who had either been blown to the
mouth of the shaft or were huddled
there when the explosion occurred,
trying to get to the top.
