ably reported by the committee.
Senator Carter has had map made
showing the withdrawal of Montana
coal lands from entry under the presi-
dents order and expects to shortly
address the senate in opposition to
this policy. Under the bill of Sena-
tor Nelson of Minnesota, all land in
question which is withdrawn from en-
try is to remain the property of the
United States until the beds of coal
have been exhausted.
Senator Carter is opposed to this
policy aud says the land Withdrawn Is
not essentially coal land, and that the
withdrawal of such an immense body
of land from taxation permanently
would be an irreparable INJURY to the
state.

Admiral Davis reported that King

that 400 persons were killed and that

Direct advices of the Associated

as the calamities of San Francisco

number of Americans were among the
killed.
The city is in ruins, but the ship.

being made to Indians in the Flathead

this phase Of their affairs was not

According to trainmen:ofSthe freight,
the powder was exploded by the con-

which was slowingl down for the sta.
tion at Sanford. Another theory is
that gas. escaping froml an oil pipe
