FAILS TO ENDORSE HUGHES
Republican Committee of New York
County Delays Action.

New York, Dec. 2L.-At a session
WHICH lasted less than ten minutes
the Republican committee of New
York county, by an almost unanimous
vote, refused to consider at this time
a resolution endorsing Governor
Charles E. Hughes for the Repub-
lican presidential nomination.
No sooner had the resolution been
offered by the friends of the governor
and its adoption moved than there
came an amendment to receive and
print the document and make it a spe-
cial order for the regular meeting in
January
This latter motion was carried with
shout that could be heard far out
into the street.
Before the meeting was called to
order several members of the commit
tee were busy in the distribution of
buttons proclaiming Speaker Cannon
as the next presidential nominee.
Many Of the most ardent supporters
of Governor Hughes declare that the
action of the committee in deferring
endorsement cannot be construed as
inimical to Mr.. Hughes candidacy.
On the contrary it is said that there
is general disposition on the part
OF members to sound the sentiment of
the voters at large before the commit.
tee commits itself.

NINETY-THREE KNOWN DEAD

IL, 81 - So +, d
Palermo, Italy, Dec. 2'-The work
Of rescuing the persons who were
killed or wounded by the explosion in
the military powder magazine of Pa
lermo continues.
Up to the present time it is known
that ninety-three persons met their
death from the explosion and subse-
quent fire and more than 100 were
injured. The lodging house for emf
grants, which was destroyed by the
flames, gave the largest number of
victims.
The magazine contained a large
quantity of dynamite and the explo-
sion was followed by number of
lesser explosions, the whole town be-
ing badly shaken and the people
thrown into panic. Almost immedi-
ately flames shot high in the air and
spread to the ruins of houses that
had fallen, adding greatly to the ter
ror of those who were in the imme-
diate neighborhood of the disaster.
The several houses that stood above
the magazine partially collapsed and
their destruction was completed by
the fire. One of these was an emf.

Announcement.

Owing to the advance in paper
and all newspaper materials, the
Pioneer will, after January 18th,
1908, raise the subscription price as
follows: The weekly will be charged
at the rate of $50 per year instead
of S1.25 as heretofore.
After January 18th, 1908, those
subscribers to the daily and the
weekly Pioneer, who live outside of
this county, whose papers are sent
to them in a single wrapper, and
wish to have the paper sent them
will be required to pay in advance.
The paper will not be sent unless it
is paid for. This notice is given
early so that I'll who are in arrears
will have sufficient time to settle
their accounts before that time.
Statements will be sent to all who
are in arrears and they will be
expected to pay up all that is due
and year in advance on the weekly,
and at least three months in advance
on the daily.
The single list" as it is termed
is practically a dead loss to a
newspaper. A few keep their sub
scription up, but more let them
run along until they are hard to
collect and many are not collected,
but the editor has to pay the pos
tage each week on all papers that
60 out side of the county, and also
has to pay all other expenses of
furnishing the paper and mailing
The Pioneer at all times aims to
give to it's readers the best news
service possible, and the money
saved by not permitting these
accounts from the single list" to
run will be used to better the
paper.
The list will be carefully watched
from month to month and on the
first of each month all whose SUBJ
scriptions expires within the next
y six weeks following the date of the
. month will be notified of the exact
date of the expiration of his subscrib-
ton,
