WATER UP TO THEIR CHINS
One Hundred and Fifty Miners Mar
rowly Escape Death by Drown
ing at Audenried, Pa.

Hazleton, Pa, Dec 21.-More than $50
miners narrowly escaped drowning to-
day in the No. 4 slope of the Lehigh
Valley & Wilkesbarre Coal company
at Audenried through the unexpected
tapping of a large body of water in
the abandoned No. l slope adjoining.
The water reached to the chins of some
of the men, who got to the surface
through two separate openings. Off
Gals at first thought that all of the
men had been accounted for, but later
the body of a Polish miner was found
in the No. slope. 1t is believed he is
the man who fired the shot that broke
the barrier between the men and the
water. The rush of air was so great
when the water broke through that
the lights on the lamps of most of the
men in the slope were extinguished.
The flood rapidly subsidized.

Goldfeld, New, Dec. 21.-The-~ mine
operators of Goldfeld are loath to
leave the task of preserving law and
order in the camp in the hands of Sher-
if ingalls,. They are using every en-
deavor to prevail upon President
Roosevelt to order a portion of the fed
eral troops to remaiH in Goldfield in
definitely. kilograms have been sent
at various times today, not only from
the mine owners, but from officials of
the various civic bodies and private in
dividuals. all urging upon the president
the necessity for the presence of the
troops. Meantime it would appear
that conditions today are much better
for a peaceful solution of the difficulty
between the miners ana operators than
ever before.

c. z. Mahoney, acting president of
the Western Federation OF Miners, ar
rived tonight and is in consultation

ceive the same treatment as the over
lures of Attorney Hilton, a positive
refusal to compromise.
Officials of the Mine Owners associa-
ton said today:
These men here can go back to
work, but not unless they renounce
the Western Federation
In the event that the local miners
do renounce the Western Federation or
get their positions back through some
other proceeding, the operators say
they will pay the strike breakers now
here half a months pay and send them
back to where they came from.
Sheriff Working on Plan.
Sheriff Ingalls, is working on the de-
tails of his plan 10 handle the police
situation in Goldheld, and will submit

The operators say they will consider
1t, but in the meanwhile they are going
ahead with plans for their own protec-
ton in case of trouble.
No more strike breakers came today
and the operators say no more are com
ing soon. There is a feeling of appre-
hensiOn over the order for the recall
of the troops which it is impossible to
conceal.

INTERVIEW WITH SPARKS.
Believes President MisIed by the La
Dor Commission.


Reno New. Dec 21.-From his bed.
this morning, Governor Sparks, who is
very sick man, made the following
statement:
Throughout this whole controversy
have acted according to my best judg-
ment. I believed, from advices that 1
received from confidential agents in
GOldfield, that trouble was imminent in
the mining camp / know that dyna-
miteehad been stolen from the mines
that the miners We're armed and pre-
pared for trouble, and the picketing of
mines and preventing men from work
ing was damaging property. I was also
advised that the sheriff and other civil
authorities were unable to cope with
the situation. 1 made these facts clear
to the president, and in the absence of
any state militia, asked that troops be
sent to prevent trouble. L thought there
was no necessity and that no good
could be accomplished by calling a spe-
cial session of the legislature.
1T is true that since the arrival of
the troops there has been no violence
And that is why we asked for troops. l
believed that so long as there We're
regular soldiers on the ground there
would be no outbreak, but feared and
had reason so to fear, that unless such
action were taken Immediately there
would be riot and bloodshed.
Rifles in eoIdfieId.
While I was in sGoIdf1eld, I investi-
gated personally the conditions that
prevail. / found that the business men
were afraid of violence and that the
women were in terror. I found that
there was an organized band of high
graders and that the sheriff is absolute
ly unable to secure a conviction of any
ore thief. 1 learned that there are over
thousand rifles in the possession of
the miners, and that the spirit of many
of the men is such as to warrant me in
believing that those rifles woulds be
used upon small pretext-
while General Funston was there l
conferred with him frequently. After
he had made a thorough investigation,
seeking information from all sources, he
told me that it was his opinion that the
troops had arrived none too soon. /
think he considered the situation grave,
and he gave me to understand that he
Endorsed my action in requesting that
the troops be sent. He practically stat
ed that a portion of the troops would

passed.
