Benton, H., Nov. Lying on beds OF
hot Goals and burned beyond recognition,
the remains OF two Of the miners who
were entombed in the Rend colliery by
an explosion on Tuesday night were re.
covered to-day. A wall OF flame shuts
of the rescuers from the point where
the two other miners are trapped.
A rescuing party has been working
ever since the exploration. II Is thought
that the two men whose remains were
found to-day were suffocated within thir.
ty minutes after the explosion. Mine
Inspector Burris thinks that the explo-
sion was caused by windy shot and
that IL was followed by after damp.
which suffocated the men. There is a
bare possibility that the other two men
may be alive in some remote corners OF
the mine, but there is little hope of
getting to them in time.

Explicit Statement in the
1908 Deer Law
AS FINALLY ADOPTED
Governor Prouty Signed the Measure
Late Yesterday Declaring Deer
Season Open Monday
Morning.

Governor Prouty late yesterday gffixed
his signature to the deer bill, which
passed the Senate yesterday morning and
the House yesterday afternoon, thus
opening the deer hunting season Monday
morning, November 0, and continuing it
to midnight OF November IA.
Game Commissioner II. @. Thomas
started from Montpelier for Stowe last
evening, armed with the necessary cre-
dentials to herald the opening Of the
deer season next Monday. He had every
thing in readiness so that at the drop
of the hat LOO notices would be imme
diately sent to hunters all over the state
to relieve their anxiety in regard to deer
question which has been up in the air
and juggled all over the two houses
for the past week. 1t was thought best
to send out these notices in view Of
the fact that many of the hunters un-
derstand that the open season is TO be
declared by another proclamation by the
governor TO supercede the one which
closed the season on all game until No
vember 9.
Mr.. Thomas was getting anxious about
the matter and that was the reason for
his visit to Montpelier yesterday. He
stated that he saw as many as ten hunt
ers with guns when he boarded the train
yesterday morning, and he had been re-
ceiving inquiries constantly about the
open season.
The circular sent out reads as fol.
lows:
An act of the Vermont legislature,
approved by his excellency, George n.
Prouty, governor, this 9th day of No
vember, 1908, relating to the open sea-
son for the hunting of deer, is herewith
published in full for the information Of
all concerned.

resident hunters; but no person shall
hunt, kill, capture or destroy deer,
with dog or dog kind, by the aid or
use Of jack or artificial light, by the

sistance Of a snare, trap, or salt lick.
All other provisions of the law relating
to deer shall be in force and effect dur.
ing the open season herein provided.
Section 2. This act shall take effect
from its passage.
Approved November 9, 1908,
George H. Prouty,
Governor.
The open season on all other game
which was temporarily suspended by the
governors proclamation, dated October
2l, 1908, pursuant to said proclamation,
closing at midnight on the Sth day of
November, inst, and all provisions Of
the general law concerning the hunting
of all kinds of game other than deer,
will be in full force and effect from the
9th day of November forward.
Dated at Stowe, VT, this 9th day Of

General-elect Assisting Che
Prosecution.

Rutland, Nov. Good progress was
made in the county court here to-day
in the trial Of Rev. Francis Crociata,
charged with conspiracy in the murder
Of Accarito Santoro here last July. The
evidence was mostly a rehearsal Of the
testimony given at the trial OF Vito
Turcianna, who was convicted Of murder
in the second degree in connection with
Santoro's death.
Mrs. Gaspar Crociata, wife Of the
priests brother, sprung a surprise on the
prosecution when she testified that Fa.
ther Crociata told Vito when the latter
announced Santoro's death that there
was no cause for killing the man. The
priest also told them, she testified, that
he would not have let them play the al
legged joke on Sanford had he known the
man would be killed. Attorney General.

planned to entice Sanford to a lonely
spot and strip him Of his clothing, in

information filed by Mr.. Lawrence, the

Democrats and Republicans Have Divided
HOnOrs-Taft's Plurality cOntin-
ues to Grow.

st. Louis, Nov. IA badly split list
of state officials is the latest indication
of the still incomplete election returns.
1t is apparent the Democrats control the
legislature. The Republicans probably
have the governor, lieutenant governor,
secretary of state and attorney general.
The Democrats have the state auditor,
treasurer, railroad commissioner, and
judge Of the supreme court. Taft's plu.
rality is likely TO reach 10000.

GRANITE FIRMS MOVE.
Two Northfeld Companies Accept
waterbury's Proposition.

Two Northheld granite firms, Suther-
land & Carroll (the first partner In
which is Walter H. Sutherland OF
Barre) and the Union Granite company
have accepted q proposition Of the
Waterbury board Of trade and win
move their business to Waterbury. The
proposition and the first steps in car
rying IL out are interesting, as told by
the Waterbury newspaper as followsi
"A proposition was made 10 the two
concerns that IL they would erect two
modern granite cutting plants, the board
Of trade would loan them one thousand
dollars each; after each mad paid out
TO their help in Waterbury one hundred
thousand dollars the note would be can
celed as paid. The proposition was ac-
cepted.
A subscription paper was at once put
into circulation and within twenty
bours sixteen hundred dollars, had been
signed. The balance is being taken
care Of just as fast as parties can be
seen.
The sheds are to be erected on the
lot of land owned by II. G. Whitehill
which went with what IA known as the
Muzzv property. The plans OF the two
sheds call for building 15Ox5O and
when equipped win cost $4,000 each,

Engineer, Mr.. Morrison Of the Cen

been in town and the survey for putting

D. w. Cooley has taken the contract
TO do the grading for the track. He
also has the contract to put in the
foundation for the two sheds, install
oil the machinery and put in the heat
ing plants. He is TO put in bid to
erect the sheds.
II is expected that the sheds will be
completed and ready for business by
January 1st.
The two concerns have in their en-
ploy twenty-five families, and as soon
as the two sheds are completed they
will move to town.
Each shed will have a capacity for
working fifty men, which will mean
large additional increase to our indus

TAMMANY LOYAL.
Did Not Knife Bryan Says Leader
Murphy.

New York, Nov. 7.--Charles r. Muir
ply, leader of Tamany Hall, dictated a
statement last night in which he denies
specifically that Tammany Hall did not
support Bryan.
ut is silly TO accuse Tammany Hall
OF knitting the national Democratic
ticket taking all the circumstances into
consideration" said Mr.. Murphy. "Many
persons, who are making the charge
know better, but hope to make political
capital at Tammany's expense.
"There Is plenty Of proof that Tam
many was absolutely loyal. The fact
that the Democratic candidates on the
county ticket received far less than the
normal Democratic majority was not
in any way responsible for the Bryan
slump. The county ticket suffered be-
cause of Bryan's weakness.
Before the convention we knew Bry-
an could not carry New York, and,
there was nothing until election to
change this belief. Bryan ran so far be-
hind here just because the people were
against him.
Il noticed that Ohio, Indiana and Min
nesota elected Democratic governors,
but Bryan lost them, and / haven't
heard any charges of treachery TO Bry-
an there. And right in Erie county,
where Mr.. Mack is a leader, I notice
that the county went for Chanler by n
good majority but Bryan could not
carry it. / have not heard anybody
charge Mr.. Mack with treachery.
"There was no trcachery. The whole
result was due only TO Bryan's weak
ness and the strength of Taft, which
pulled Hughes through"
Mr.. Murphy also commented on the
charges of treachery made against
Tammany by Raymond Robins OF Chi
cago. Mr.. Murphy said he had written
n letter to Mr.. Robins demanding that
the latter prove mis- charges.
