BODIES MUST REMAIN
BELOW FOR SOME TIME
st, Paul Mine at Cherry Will Be Kept
Sealed Until Fire Is
Smothered.

Cherry, H.. Nov. 25.-DetaiIs Of a meet
ing held early today between the state
mining board, Battalion Chief Mcdonald
of the Chicago fire department and w
w. Taylor, general superintendent of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul COM
pany's mines, were made known this af-
ternoon.
Battalion Chief Mcdonald after an in
spection of the work by his men, who
had been throwing water in the east bot
tom of the mine for more than a week,
advised the mine inspectors and the repre-
sentatives Of the coal company that the
water was not reaching the fire, and that
he saw no use of throwing it any more,
as 1t was merely filling up the third vein.
Bodies of the known dead in that vein
are already inaccessible because Of the
quantity of water already thrown into
the mine. To increase this amount of
water, Mcdonald said, would delay re-
cOvery of bodies indefinitely.
Mr.. Williams Of the Urbana rescue sta
ton, who had been keeping careful note
of the gases formed in the mine, reported
that the fire had extended to the coal
pillars, forming dangerous gases and
making it perilous for rescuers to con-
tinue their work.
After much discussion it was unani-
mously agreed that the only thing that
would make possible ultimate recovery of
the bodies in the mine was to seal up
both the main shaft and the air shaft and
keep them sealed until the fire was
smothered.

STARTS FOR DENMARK.
Dr.. Cooks Secretary Takes Arctic
Records Over the Ocean.

New York. Nov. 25.-Another chap
ter in the north pole controversy was
begun today with the departure of the
data and reports which DR.. Frederick A.
Cook compiled in the Arctic for Den
mark where they will be submitted to
the University of Copenhagen as proof
of DR.. Cooks assertion that he reached
the north pole on April q, 1908. The
records were taken abroad by Walter
Lonsdale, private secretary Of the ex-
plorer, who sailed on the steamship
United States for Copenhagen. Mr..
Bonsdale said that he would keen the
documents under careful guard until
they were placed in the hands of Dr.
Lord, rector Of the Copenhagen univer-
sity.
The records contain about 80 600
words and the university authorities
probably will be several weeks going
over them.

WITH THE WORK
Representatives and Senator'S Arrive
After Inspecting the Pan
ANA Canal.

Havana, Nov. 25.-The American con-
gressional appropriations committee,
which has been inspecting the Panama
canal, arrived today from Colon. The
members expect to sail tomorrow for
New York. They said they were pleased
with progress on the canal, and believed
the channel would be open for traffic in
advance Of the estimated date. Senator
Crawford of South Dakota said all
members of the committee were i'm
pressed with the splendid work of Col
onel Goethals, chairman of the canal
commission and chief engineer of the
work. They were convinced, he said,
of the desirability of the passage Of the
bill designed to reduce the number of
canal commissioners and simplify the
administration, thus giving Colonel
Goethals a freer hand.
1t also is probable that the commit
tee will recommend a reduction of from
eight or ten million dollars in the esti-
mates of the canal commission.

accident is likely to die.
Girl Badly Hurt.
Miss Josephine Scion who leaped from
the automobile just as it was struck by
the car, was taken to a hospital and later

hospital where the mother and child were
taken, said that the mother was suffer

automobile accident occurred tonight that
five persons were killed in a similar acct
dent a year ago.
