KAMlAH
From Progress

A company was organized some
three years ago and purchased the
land on which the new town of Kan
iah was originally located, and it was
their aim to improve these lots, build
cross-walks and the walk from here to
Old Town, then to sell the lots and it
has been a good thing. Yesterday
they held final meeting and as the
lots have been sold and there is no
longer any object for being, they dis
solved.
A party Of surveyors arrived in
town Tuesday evening and are busily

possible, and there would be plenty Of
traffic for road if it could get up
there. The asbestos mines, clay de
posits, timber etc. would all make good
tonnage for road.

OF reaching men higher up.

through the influence of Roosevelt
that the investigation was undertaken.
James B. Reynolds, former assistant
secretary of the treasury, denied to-
day he was opposed to the investiga-
ton while in Office. and Richard Parr,

motives to be criticized, says he was
misquoted.
Declines in stocks of the American
Sugar Refining Co., the corporation

their bodies buried beneath thousands
of tons of earth and may never be re-
covered, is the opinion tonight when

pended
Fires in the mine broke out early
today with renewed feTceness and
made further descents by rescuers tm-
possible. Fans employed in an at
tempt to carry fresh air to the en-
tombed men only served to fan the
sparks into a blaze again. Soon the
heat and smoke were sc. dense it was
necessary to again Athe mouth of
the shaft.
500 cOFFINS ORDERED.
Whether the bodies will be taken
out tomorrow depends on the Condi-
ton of the fire. K is possible the
flames may be exti9guished by the use
of chemicals then. Three hundred
collins have beenEordered, as it is be-
lieved no more will be brought out of
the mine alive. kIany nurses are on
the scene to aid the injured if any are
alive.
Before the fire broke out again the
rescuerS descended four times. Rumors
spread that the entombed men were
alive and wOHld1 be brought out soon.
