Dutch Papers Protest Against
Secrecy Which Enfolds venezu.

tails Of Report Of De Reus.

The Hague.-Tho reports rccoiv,
questing the power to join her in
Furnishing Venezuela caused great sur.
prise. II has been felt that the Neither.
lands government wanted to pIow its
own burrows and had asked the other
powers only to adhere to a policy OF
hands on" 1t was believed that Hol.
land had adopted this attitude because
her grievances against Venezuela
were more intimately concerned with
the national honor and were not so
pureIv commercial as those of her
neighbors. The reasons for the ap,
parent change in the program are un.
known at present.
The Dutch newspapers are begin.
ming to protest against the secrecy
with which the government enfolds
the entire Venezuelan situation and
ask for details Of the report made by
NJ. De Reus, the former minister to
Venezuela, and the correspondence
that has passed between the govern
bent and the members of President
Castro's cabinet The papers demand
that the government shall not embark
on any proceedings involving heavy
expense without the peoples approval
The Netherlands government ap
parently is quite satisfied with the
explanations made by NJ De Reus, It's
former minister to the republic OF
Venezuela, relative to the letter crit
icising President Castro and his gov
eminent, which is alleged to have been
the reason for the minister's expul
sion from Venezuela. Furthermore
The Netherlands has no intention OF
disavowing M. De Reus or apologizing
for his action.

THIRTY WORKMEN PERISH
IN OKLAHOMA COAL MINE
Miners imprisoned In Burning Shaft
Being suffocated Because Of De-
struction Of Air Shaft.

McAlester, Okla.--More than thirty
miners were suffocated in Haily.ola
coal mine No. 1 at Hailyville, four
miles east Of McAlester, Wednesday
morning, when fire DESTROYED the
hoisting shaft and air shaft and cut
of air from the men below.
twenty-five dead bodies were
brought out Wednesday night, follow.
ing a successful three hours battle
with the flames. 1t is believed that
six or eight more will be found.
twenty-five mules were suffocated
and some of their bodies were burned
Explorations in the channels re.
vealed the fact that none of the men
met death by burning, but that all Of
them were sufrocated.
After the entombed miners had
gone down on the cage a fire broke
out, occasioned by the ignition of a
barrel of oil which miner was try.
Ing to divide, The flames spread at
once to the hosting shaft and the air
shaft, and all communication with the
top was at once cut off. The first in
umation the people on top of the
ground had of the trouble was the
fiames and smoke coming out of the
top of the shaft. Hundreds Of min
ers rushed to. the scene and tried to
get into the air shaft, but this was
impossible, as flames and smoke were
coming up that way with such force
as to drive them back Then an eff
fort was made to operate the cages
running up and down the hosting
shafts, but 1t was found that the
cages, the cables and the guides had
been burned. There was absolutely
no help for the imprisoned miners.
