The miners were working below

showing that the mine was on fire.
The skip became jammed at this
point and could neither be holsted
nor lowered. 1t is supposed to have
been thrown off the track by one OF
the men being overcome by smoke
and falling against the front wheels
of the skip.
Two of the men aboard got out
and climbed to the surface by means
or the ladQerWay.
The other IL were In the mine at
last accounts. 1t is believed that all
have perished.
Great volumes Of smoke have been
rising from the shaft ever since. An
attempt was made to reach the inn
prisoned men through the Cover
shaft, several hundred feet distant
from the Fremont. 1t Is a part of
the Fremont Consolidated mine and
the two shafts are connected at the
700-foot level, but could go no far
ther on account of the smoke.
Four of the imprisoned men are
Americans, four Italians and three
Austrians. No hope Is entertained
that any are now alive.
Steps are being taken to close up
the mine, making IL air tight. and
extinguish the flames in that way.
At 10 o'clock today the fire was
not burning so fiercely and some
hope was entertained that the en-
tombed miners may have got into a
long drift away from the shaft and
fire, and will yet be rescued.
Manager Goodall, with large
force Of miners on each level from
the Cover side, are making every ef-
fort TO stop the fire and get the en-
tombed miners out.

OKlAHOMA'S STATE
LEGISLATURE MEETS
Republicans Are I'm Hopeless Minor
ity--Bill VIII be Introduced
10 Disfranchise Negro
Voters.

Guthrie, Okla, Dec. 2.-Oklaho-
mas first state Legislature convened
here today. The entire day was taxi
en- up with the organizing. Pracu-
cally all the members are present.
The republicans are such a hope
less minority in both houses that
even in joint sessions they would be
too weak to exert influence in leg
islatiye affairs.
The legislators came with their
pockets bulging with bills on every
subject OF legislation, many Of them
experimental They will have pub
licity of introduction and will then go
TO the committees, few to reappear.
One OF the earliest and most radi-
cal forms OF legislation will be bills
to disfranchise negro voters, as far
as possible, even though the negro
vote in the state is not large enough
to be of disadvantage to the demo-
cratic party. The democrats are
worried by the fact that any educa-
might disqualify negro voter would
apply with equal force to a large
number of the Indian citizens In the
eastern part Of the state who are
friendly to the democratic party.
There Is less liveliness in the pre-
liminary organization than was ever
seen at the beginning of an Oklaho-
ma territorial legislature. This IS
due TO the fact that the legislative
officers were agreed upon weeks ago
by reason OF a compact in the con-
stitutional convention and in the
state campaign. There Is little pos
slbility Of the defeat of this slate:

That President VIII Name the
Man--New York Delegates
Are AntagonistiC.

New York, Dec. 2.-Out of seven
ty-six democratic senators and rep
resentatives in a vote polled by the
New York World. forty-fOur have de-
clared unequivocally that the recent
statement of William ]. Bryan elm
mates all other candidates for the
democratic nomination for president.
The democratic national commit
tee will assemble in Washington on
December 18th, to determine the
time and place for the national con-
vention to meet and select candidates
for the presidency and vice presi-
dency. Thus far Denver appears to
be the choice of the committee, al
though Kansas City. Chicago and
Louisville are making strong bids for
the convention. Which ever city Is
successful. ii seems to be practically
q foregone conclusion that William
Jennings Bryan will be the nominee,
as while several other names are be-
ing mentioned, none of the other as
pirants appear to have anything like
the strong claims to the position that
are being advanced by the friends of
the Nsbraskan. A number of nation
al committeeman, heretofore oppos-
ed to Bryan, have become reconciled
to him, and are confident that IL he
will forget his recent utterances con-
cerning government ownership and
make the tariff the issue. his chance
for winning over any one put up
by the republican party are excel
lent. In fact, it is felt that there
never was a finer opening for the
democratic party at the approach OF

again and again because the business
interests of the country felt more
confidence In 1t than they did in the
democratic marty. Now, the demo-
orats say, however, the business men
are In great measure out of sympa-
Thy with the present administration,
and even If Mr. Roosevelt be not
nominated, the candidate for his
party will in all probability be named
by him, which is regarded as the
same thing.
Democratic national committeeman
representing practically the entire
middle west and part of the east at

cluded that the only issue on which
they could meet the republican party

President Puzzles Them.
The contest for the republican
presidential nomination, at least in
SOIdf as new I Ofk STATE Is COuCeIn-
ed, appears to be narrowing down 10
Governor Hughes and Secretary of
the Treasury Cortelyou, both OF whom
have very strong followings. The at
titude of President Roosevelt is re-
garded, even by some of his closest
political friends, as decidedly puz-
zling; nevertheless his recent order
federal office holders to work for his
denomination or 10 accept election as
Roosevelt delegates to the republican
national convention may be accepted
as a determination on his part to
adhere to his refusal to become a
third term candidate.
Perhaps the several open attacks
that have lately been made upon the
chief executive, some of which have
come from men heretofore among
his most loyal supporters. have made
the president sit up and take notice.
Whatever the cause, there Is nothing
like the pOpuar clamor that there
was to again place Mr.. Roosevelt at
the head of his ticket. HIS known
antipathy toward Governor Hughes
may be counted upon to prevent II
possible the latter's nomination.
While his friendship for George b;
Cortelyou may likewise be counted
upon TO bring about the selection OF
the secretary. with these TWO candi-
dates growing stronger every day,
the fight in this state promises TO be
a pretty one, and the outcome Is
awaited with great interest as prob
ably foreshadowing the result when
the republican national convention
meets.
