FEAR IOWA SHUT DOWN
Fifteen Thousand Miners Face Com
pIete Suspension Thru Failure of
Eastern Miners and Operators to
Reach an Aoreement.

Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, March 4.-John r.
Reese, secretary and commissioner OF
the Iowa Coal Operators association,
is of the belief that every coal mine In
Iowa will be shut Xdown April l. This
would mean the throwing into idle
ness of $4,000 men. The agreement
now existing between the mine oper-
ators and the miners expires March
81. anl because of the failure of min
ers and operators in eastern states to
reach an agreement last week, it Is
probable that the Iowa miners and OPP
orators, who have heretofore followed
the example of the eastern states, Will
not be able to make a new agreement
before March 81.

Cleveland, March Am fire which
completely destroyed the common
school building in Collinwood, d sub.
urb, today, seventy-five and perhaps
$50 children are thought to have lost
their lives.
The fire started by an overheated
furnace. The flames quickly spread.
and a panic ensued when the building
became filled with smoke and 400 chill
dren attempted to escape.
There were but two available exits
in the building.
One of these was used freely by the
children, but the other soon became
choked with children, who madly
dashed for the open air. Those who
fell in the doorway were trampled upon
by those behind and soon the doorway
was impossible.
Children in a Panic.
The frightened and panic stricken
children turned to escape by the win
dows and any other means that could
be found. Escape was cut off by the
flames, which, by this time, spread
thruout the rooms. The building was
Of brick, yet this did not retard the
progress of the flames In a few min
utes the lower floor fell, precipitating
scores of children to the basement,
among burning embers.
The scene about the building was
heart rending. Quickly the news spread
thruout the village and hundreds Of
parents crowded about the building in
search Of their girls or boys. In a few
minutes twenty bodies were taken
from the ruins.
Plainly writhing forms of dozens of
others could be seen in the basement.
Nearby factories dismissed their men
and instructed them to assist in the
rescue. They braved the fire and made
heroic efforts to save those not dead.
