THREE HUNDRED DEAD
Terrible Mine Disaster Occurs
in Germany.

Hamn, Germany, Nov. 13.-Rescue
operations to reach the men entombed
in the Radbod mine, where an explo-
sion of fredamp occurred with re-
sultant great loss Of life, have not
vet been renewed. The authorities
estimate that there are still $50 min
ers below the ground, but no hope is
entertained that they can be saved.
Twenty-seven Of the miners who
were taken out severely injured are
in hospitals. The shafts, pit head and
galleries of the mine are being walled
in in all endeavor to choke the fire.
Thirty more dead bodies have been
recovered.
The police still keep the public
away from the immediate vicinity of
the shaft head. The scenes witnessed
are pitiful. The wives of the impris-
oned miners are demanding why the
authorities keep their husbands shut
below ground and several of the wo-
men have become insane and been
taken to all asylum.
There is danger of further explo-
sions in the mine from extensive
stores of dynamite at the bottom OF
the pit.

never has been so severely Judged by
his parliament as he was during the
debate in the reichstag on the inter
pellations concerning the conversa-
lions published with the permission
of the emperor in the London Daily
Telegraph, on Oct %. The criti-
cisms of his majesty's court, his min
listers and his majesty's treatment of
the constitution, as we'll as of his free
dom of speech, went to lengths that
astonished observers acquainted with
the traditional caution of the cham.
Der in dealing with the personality of
the sovereign. And the emperor
seemed to have no defenders.
Chancellor Won Buelow made an
address lasting fifteen minutes, bur
he lacked his usual spirit, and a per-
son high IN his confidence is authority
for the statement that he also had
told the emperor that neither himself
nor his successors could remain in
Off ce unless his majesty was more re-
served. Prince Won Buelow spoke
solemnIy, and without making use OF
any dramatic effects. The house re.

EIGHT PERSONS ARE KILLED
Many Others injured in Louisiana
Railroad Wreck

New Orleans, Nov. Eight dead
and many injured was the toll in hui
man flesh and blood that paid for the
errors of railroad trainmen when a
Great Northern express crashed into
the rear of a New Orleans and North
eastern local at Little Woods station,
fishing and hunting camp on Lake
Fonchartrain, twelve miles from this
city.
The wreck was attended by unusual-
ly grueSome scenes in the fog-bOund
swamps of the lake shore. To add to
the horror of the situation the wreck
caught ire and only the heroic work
of the surviving passengers prevented
the cremation of those pinned down
in the debris.
When Engineer Blackman of the
Great Northern train took the North
eastern tracks at Slidel he says he
was given the usual right of way sig
nal and proceeded to send his train
toward New Orleans at a 45-mile an
hour clip. AS the station at Little
Woods was approached the Northeast
ern local suddenly lcomed Zip through
the fog. Engineer F:lackman applied
his brakes and remained at the throt-
tie while the ponderous locomotive
plowed its way through the train
ahead, leaving behind it trail of
corpses and injured passengers.

.KWANC TSU DEAD
Emperor Of China Expires After
Long lIIEess.
EMPRESS DOWAGER DYING
Brother of the Late Ruler Pro-
claimed Regent.

Picking, Nov. 14.-A new ruler seat
ed on the throne of China; the death
Of Kwang Tsu, the emperor, who had
been titular emperor since 1887; the
impending death of Isl An, the
dOWager empress-these are the i'm
portant events that have thrown the
entire Chinese empire into a fever of
excitement
These occurrences were reported
with beWildering rapidity and all
were surrounded with remarkable
mystery.
Two imperial edicts were issued
from the palace in quick succession
The first makes Prince Chun regent
of the empire and the second ap-
points his son, Pu Wei, heir presump-
tive.
Prince Chun is brother of the en-
peror. His name is Tsai Feng and
he succeeded to the title of his father,
Prince Chun, in 1891 He is a lieu
tenant general of the Plain White
banner corps and visited Germany in
1901 as special commissioner of the
throne
This last illness of the emperor as
Sumed serious aspect a fortnight
ago It was then declared that he
was suffering from grave intestinal
complaint. He has persistently re-
fused to accept Western medical at
tendance, although medical men at
tached to the legations have stood
ready to give their services. His
majesty has been suffering for ten
years past from chronic nephritis,
which recently became complicated
with diabetes and sciatica.
No one could be found at the palace
who could give any authoritative
statement of what was taking place.
Numerous high dignitaries of the en-
pire were in attendance, but most of
them semeed as much in the dark
as to the actual happenings as the
foreign officials and residents who
sought news.
