EXPLOSION KILLED OYER 100
COAL MINERS.
About Half Are English-Speaking Men
Relief for Dependents Asked-Mine

Rushed-Cause of Explosion Is Not
Determined-Two Theories Advanced.

More than 100 men were killed by an
explosion in the Mariana (Pa.) mines of
the Pittsburg- Buffalo Coal company re-
Gently, which entombed a large number
of miners.
The officials of the company assert
that the number of men entombed will
not exceed 1875, while others about the
scene say a larger number were in the
mine when the explosion occurred.
About so of the victims, it is re-
ported about the mine, were either
American or English-speaking men. "A
majority of the foreigners were com
paratively new arrivals, many of them
having left families in their old homes.
Steps have already been taken for

Two Theories of Cause.

The noise of the explosion was an
ominous summons to all the people of
the town and they hurried to the shaft
house.
The cause Of the explosion has not
been determined. Two theories are
entertained: One is that pocket of
gas was struck by one of the miners,
quickly filing the workings and then
igniting from lamp. The other theory
is that gas from a well ON the farm
under which the mine is located pene-
trated the workings. The land in the
vicinity is said to be gaseous and it is
possible gas may have seeped through
the coal stratum until it accumulated

CALIFORNIA DEMANDS A PLACE
Pacific Coast Rivalry for Places in
Taft's Cabinet

1t is said that California will resist
any movement to supply the cabinet
with a western member from the Pa
cifc northwest, that state demanding
that if Secretary of the Navy Metcalf
goes out March another California
man be given a place in the cabinet.
The boom for Ballinger for secretary of
the interior attained considerable pop
ularity. California people realize the
benefits of having a powerful friend in
the cabinet, hence they may put every
energy into the effort to retain Metcalf
or secure his successor from that region.
H. W. Scott, editor in chief of the
Portland Oregonian, is also regarded
as a candidate for the cabinet or a for
eign mission.
1t is generally thought any concerted
movement by far western states of the
continent to obtain representation in
the cabinet will be successful, because
the two-thirds of the continent west of
Iowa is too important to leave unrepre-
scented in the president s official council
