HOME RULE FOR IRELAND.
House Of Commons Adopts Redmond's
Amended Resolution.

London, March 31.-The house OF
commons last night, after a lengthy
debate on the question of home rule
for Ireland, adopted by vote of 313
to 157 resolution moved by John
e. Redmond, the Nationalist leader,
that "in the opinion of this house
a solution of this question can only
be attained by giving the Irish people
legislative and executive control of all
purely Irish affairs" after it had been
amended by adding the words "all
subject to the supreme authority of
the imperial parliament"
1t was known beforehand that the
debate could not have but an academ-
ic interest, because the government
already had pledged itself that there
would be no deal in the matter of home
rule until it had been given a mandate
at the general election. But the de-
bate was made notable enough
through the strong declaration of
Chancellor Asquith, which was all the
weightier because made at the mo-
ment Mr.. Asquith was actually assum-
ing the premiership
Mr.. Balfour in brief speech had
accused his opponents of speaking
with two meanings, Radical mean
ing and a Nationalist meaning. He
asked how it was conceivably possible
to carry out great Irish reforms with
British money, except by a British
parliament, and ironically challenged
Mr.. Asquith to clear up this ambig-
uity
Amid irOnical Unionist laughter, Mr.
Asquith rose and said that never in
his life had he felt less embarrassed.
For over twenty years he himself and
his colleagues had steadily and con-
sistently advocated self-government
for Ireland's purely local affairs. He
held that opinion now as strongly as
ever. He could not, however, support
Mr. Redmond's motion in its present
form, because he found in it no explicit
recognition of imperial supremacy
and, further, because no parliament
would be justified in embarking such
a task unless the matter first had been
submitted to the electorate.
1t would be gross and inexcusable
violation of their promises to do so
in lifetime of the present parliament.
AS far as the present parliament was
concerned, he said, they had expressed
their powers in regard to the problem
of Irish government in the Irish coun-
ellis bill last year.
Timothy Healy closed the debate,
declaring that Mr.. Asquith was mis-
taken If he supposed he would COM
mend himself to the Irish nation by
his speech.
Earl Percy, on behalf of the Union
lists, moved an amendment declaring
the house unalterably opposed to the
creation of an Irish parliament with
a responsible executive, but the
amendment was rejected.

lar banquet In Convention hall last
night under the auspices of the Young
Mems Democratic club of Missouri.
William J. Bryan and Judson Harmon

pal speakers. Some $1,000 persons
thronged the hall as auditors and
cheered the speakers The meeting
was essentially a Bryan affair, spon-
taneous enthusiasm marking every
mention of his candidacy for the
presidency. The reception accorded
Mr.. Harmon was no less cordial, and
suggestions promising him high hon.
ors from his party were enthusiastic-
ally received.

THIEVES PURLOIN RECORDS.
Mysterious Theft of Nsrthside Delin.
quent Tax Books.

Pittsburg, March 81 Two large
and important books containing a rec
ord of the delinquent taxes collected
in Allegheny in 1902 and 1903 have
been stolen and as a consequence
matters are in complicated shape in
the office of the delinquent tax collec-
tor. Several city detectives are max.
ing every endeavor to recover the
books.
The books were stolen from North.
side City hall two weeks ago, when
the accounts of the old delinquent tax
collectors office of Allegheny were
being removed to the office Of Delin-
quent Tax Collector L. r. Goshorn, In
The Smithfield street Municipal build
ing.
The thiefs object in stealing the
books is a mystery and the means he
used to spirit them away from City
hall without being detected is also
puzzling Collector Goshorn and the
detectives who have been working on
the case for several days.
That the person who took the books
Intended to cover up something or to
deprive the city Of facts concerning
delinquent property Mr.. Goshorn said
yesterday there is no question. De-
tectives Kelly, Left and Lally for sew
eral days have been making efforts
to find some trace of the books or
clew concerning the robbery, but
without avail.
Northside detectives have also join
I'd in the search, but all they have
learned is that the books were seen In
the old delinquent tax collectors Of
flee on the second floor of the North
side City hall on the day that the ac-
counts and fixtures of the officers
were removed to Pittsburg. The
books which have disappeared are
known as the condensed duplicates OF
1892 and 1903. They contained a con-
1ensed record of all the business
transacted in the Allegheny collectors
office for the year, also list of all de-
linquent properties and properties
against which liens have been filed.
Until the books have been recov-
cred affairs will be in serious shape
in the delinquent tax collectors office.
The absence of the accounts for the
two years will complicate matters, for
the records which were stolen were
the only ones for the years 1902 and
1903 that were preserved.

vote was taken on the Bailey sub

which the bill provides.
The vote on the substitute stood AZ
to II and this vote was entirely par
tisan, even Senator LaFollette cast
ing his vote with the Republicans.
The bill has been before the senate
since Jan. o.
An interesting feature of the pas
sage of the bill was a reiteration by
Mr.. Aldrich of his promise to bring in
bill for an investigation of the en-
tire banking system of the country
with a view to instituting reforms.
AS passed the bill provides for not
more than $5OO,OOO,OOO of emergency
currency to be issued to national

RESCUERS MET DEATH
Second Explosion at the Hanna
Mine Killed so More Men.

Bomb Thrower Mangled-The Senate
Passes the AIdrich Bill - Refused
Hearing on Free Pulp-Franchot'
Death Due to Accident - Chester
Gillette Executed.
Between 65 and 20 miners lost their
lives in series of explosions late on
Saturday night in coal mine No. of
the Union Pacific Coal company at
Hanna, Wyo. The explosions were
caused by coal dust and each was fol-
lowed by fire.
The first explosion occurred at 3
o'clock in the afternoon, killing eigh-
teen miners, including a superinten-
dent and three bosses.
The second explosion occurred at
1890 o'clock at night, snuffing out
the lives of from 40 to 80 rescuers, in
Guiding State Mine Inspector D. NJ.
Ellie. The names of the men killed in
first explosion are shown in the compa-
ny's books, but those of the rescu-
ers are not shown, as no record was
kept of those who volunteered for this
dangerous work
The regular force of men employed
at mines Nos. and were pressed in
to rescue work, which is extremely
difficult.
The bodies of four of the eighteen
men who lost their lives in the first
explosion, were found Saturday night,
but owing to the increased volume of
gas, which threatened to explode at
any moment, no effort was made to
remove them to the surface.
Fire started in the colliery a week
ago. Since that time attempts at reg
ular intervals were made to extinguish
the blaze. Saturday it was deemed
unsafe to send miners down into the
workings, and they were told not to
report for duty. Superintendent
Briggs, with the best and most exper-
fenced men in the camp, went into
the mine to fight the fire, but at 2
o'clock the flames were beyond their
control.
At o'clock the fire reached the gas
and terrific explosion followed. In
few minutes many men volunteered
to enter the mine and to rescue any
possible survivor. The fire hindered
the rescuers, but they made some
progress. After a long struggle the
volunteers got well into the mine.
Those on the surface had begun to ex-
pect results from the intrepid daring
of the rescuers, but at 10:30 O'Clock
the camp was startled by second ex-
plosion that partly shut off the shaft
of the mine and most likely killed the
volunteers. The victims are all be-
low the tenth level and it is probable
that the flames have consumed their
bodies.
