CANNON PROPOSES TO FIGHT
Makes Fiery Attack on Insurgents at

Kansas City.
Kansas City, Nov. 27.-That the in

those who heard the speakers address

in which he sent few hot shots at
the insurgents camp, attacked their at
tempt to revise the house rules and
upheld the Payne tariff measure.
"The senators and representatives
who call themselves insurgents said
Cannon, and who voted against the
Payne bill, voted to increase or main
tain the duties on the industries and
products of their own states and sec
tons. They are protectionists for
their own people, but were opposed to
protection for other people in other
sections"

attack on the house of representatives
that Bryan is making, he added:

Cherry, ILL.,, Nov. 24.-Practically al
the bodies of those who persisted in

The miners evidently had died il

were in great tangled mass, com
pletely blocking the staircase leading
from the third to the second vein, and
were scattered along the vein where
they had dropped before reaching the
stairway.
Black damp was the cause Of death,

for rescuers.
Two rude wooden ventilating fans,
fashioned in the same manner as
those found two days ago with the
dead in the second gallery, were af-
fixed to the shaft wall and stairway.
The men had turned these by hand in
their frantic struggle for air in the
hopeless effort to brush back the black
damp. One of the dead miners hands
was found firmly griDDed about the
fan as he had died. The fans were
made of pieces of wood, hastily nailed
together and whirled about the han

in the mass. Many Of them were

Five Buildings Are Blown Up at Dan.
Vile, Ill.
Danville, ILL.,, Nov. PA charge of
dynamite weighing perhaps twenty
five pounds was exploded under the
fruit and wine house of Joseph Mas
carl, demolishing five buildings and
doing $4,000 damage.
Buildings both to the north and to
the south of the Mascara place were
completely wrecked and plate glass
windows in every building for three
squares were demolished. Bricks were
hurled ten squares by the explosion.
Guncotton and bits of the fuse were
found nearly two blocks from the
scene Of the explosion.
Mascara charged members of the
"Black Hand society with the crime,
but he declined to say whether he he'd
received threatening letters from any
source. Two men were seen to run
from the vicinity of the building two
minutes before the explosion occurred.
The police have descriptions of them
and expect to arrest the suspects.

TO HIGHEST COURT
Labor Leaders Apply for Writ
Of Ge!tiorarL
!
CHANCES ARE AGAINST Them
Records Show Few Such App|i-
!. cations Successful.

Washington, Nov. 27.-f "book"
were to be made, based on past per-
formances Of the supreme court of
the United States in similar proceed
ings, the odds would be about ten to
one that Gompers, Mitchell and Nor
rison, the three labor leaders, will go
to Jail.
Application has been made to that
tribunal for writ of certiorari on be-
half of the Off Gals of the American
Federation of Labor to review the re-
cent decision of the appellate court
of the District of Columbia, which
imposed by Justice Wright of the
District supreme court.
A search of the records of the SUI
preme court Of the United States
shows that about one application in
ten for writs Of certiorari is granted.
The usual practice is to take such ap-
plications under advisement for one
week.
May Review Entire Case.
Should the court decide to grant the
writ this would mean that the entire
case, involvir~ the alleged disobedi-
ence on the part of the defendants Of
the injunction against boycotting the
Buck Stove and Range company Of
st. Louis and their sentences for con-
tempt, would be reviewed by the high
est court in the land. The final de
! cision of the court. in the event the
writ is granted, would probably not
be filed for several months.
If the application is denied Com
pers, Mitchell and Morrison will be
committed to jail forthwith for terms
| of twelve, nine and six months re
| spectively. In this event there re.
mains one recourse, writ of habeas
corpus.
The suggestion that President Taft
might pardon the three labor leaders
is entirely eliminated by the reiter
lated statements of Gompers and his
associates that they will make nc
!! ar LEGATION for a pardon and will per
/ mil none to be made in their behalf.
