TAFT and The SPEAEERSHIP
Mr.. Burton Discusses Situation After
Talk with President-elect.
PARTY PLEDGES MUST BE KEPT
Executive VIII Exert All HE Innu-
ence AgAinst Any Effort to
Obstruct Carrying Out
Peoples Wishes {.

HOT SPRINGS. Va, Nov. 22.-President
elect Taft and Representative Burton Of
Ohio had another extended conference Sat
urday, at which the speakership question
was discussed as we'll as nearly every
thing else as Mr.. Taft put it afterwards.
What the present state of mind OF Mr..
Taft is on the speakership question and
what will be his future attitude Is made
apparent beyond all question in a state
ment for publication by Mr.. Burton after
the conference. Mr.. Burton first explained
that he was none the less a candidate
for the senate than when he came here,
and that on his return to Washington on
Monday me should give more vigorous at
tention to the canvass in Washington. He
then said:
"In discussing the question OF the speak
ership I am not assuming 20 speak for Mr.
Taft, but Only to express what seems e
me what is clearly a correct view OF the
situation. The president-elect made Ger,
tain promises during the campaign. One
was for a thorough and honest revision Of
the tariff. This does not necessarily NEAR
that rates in all schedules will be lowered
nor that any legitimate right or interest
Of either capital or labor will be disre,
garded. 1t does mean a careful re-examln

alton OF the whole subject. Besides the
tariff there were other promises contained
in the party platform and reiterated by the
president-elect which must be fulfilled. No
doubt Mr.. Taft would oppose Mr.. Cannon
very reluctantly, but as the head OF his
party as we'll as the presldent-eiect OF the
nation he is bound to meet the expectations
OF the people and to insist upon the observ-
ance of party pledges.
The speaker has great power in repross-
ing legislation. II this represslve influence
should stand in the way there would be but
one course for the president-elect to pursue
and that IL to exert his influence against
obstruction.
1T is to be hoped there win be such
harmony and concert of action between the
president-elect and Speaker Cannon that a
contest will be avoided"
Judge Taft made no statement for publl-
cation on the subject. Those who have
talked with him say that his determination
to prevent obstruction" is most vigorous.
Mr.. Burton wished to make no prediction
as to what the outcome of this determine
ton would be, saying that the whole stu
alton, as he saw 1t, was contained in his
statement. Regarding the possibility of his
being a candidate for speaker, Mr.. Bur
tons answer was that he was none the
less a candidate for senator, because OF his
visit here"

Pittsburg,' Dec. 2. - The squeakina

shaft leading to the Rachel and Agnes
mines Of the Pittsburgh Buffalo Coal
company at Mariana, Pa, since last
Saturday, when a terrific explosion IN
the mines wrecked the up-todate ele,
vator Of the shaft and snuffed out the
lives Of miners to a number esti;
mated at from 120 up. had carried I'd
the surface when darkness fell last
night the bruised, mangled and burnl
ed remains Of more than 100 Of the
victims Of the disaster.
The most reliable count OF bodieA
recovered at that time was 10, two,
thirds of which have been identified
The general belief at that time was
that not many more bodies would be
found and that by noon today nearly
all OF the victims would have been
brought to the surface. That a few
bodies are burned under slate or other
roof structure and underground COM
struction was conceded, and it may bd
several days before these are found
But the explosion Of the workingd
has been SO complete that it seems
impossible that any considerable num-
Der of bodies remain in the mines. :
James E. Roderick, head of the
state department of mining, said last
night that from data furnished him BIZ
the company and reports from his siJ
deputy inspectors he did not believe
the death list would exceed 12O.

POLICE GUARD NINE. srEINHElL.
Authorities Take Precautions Against
Hostile Demonstrations.


Hostile Demonstrations.
Paris, Dec. 2.-The investigation of
the Steinheil case did not make any
great advance yesterday. M. Andre,
the examining magistrate, heard only
few secondary witnesses. The most
important results. however. are ex-
pected from lengthy examination of
Nine. Steinheil. which has been fixed
for to-day and Wednesday, and the
magistrate will decide from the evil
dence whether the Reconstruction"
Of the crime in the presence of Nine
steinheil will be necessary.
Extraordinary precautions are be-
ing taken in view of possible hostile
demonstration to-day. Nine. Steinheil
will be brought to the court at an ear
ly hour and she will be kept hence
forth in the historic Conciergerie.
1t was announced last night that
Nine. Steinheil's counsel, M. Aubin,
will retire from the case. The reason
given for this is that he took up the
case prior to the criminal indictment,
but that he now prefers to turn it
over to special assize court advo-
cate. as he is not versed in that class
of work.
