paraiso yesterday to meet a number of
friends and acquaintance, among them

1856 IMPRISONED BY
MINE EXPLOSION
Little Hope For Men EntOmbed
in English COIHeTy.

New Castle, Eng. Feb. IA terri
bic disaster has occurred at West
Stanley, a small mining town twelve
miles distant. in which It is feared.
1856 lives have been lost. There were
two explosions in the West Stanley
colliery. which employs 400 men, and
1876 Of the men were in the pit at the
time. None of them has come to the
surface, although rappings have been
heard, and it is supposed that these
are from some Of the miners who es-
capped death from the explosion and
the fire which followed Il.
Almost Immediately after the explo-
sion flames burst through the shaft.

and blowing out the fencing and appa-
ratus at the entrance to the mine.

Think THREE MADMEN
KILLED ATTENDANT
Found Dying Cl Tracks After
Prisoners Escaped,

Norristown, Pa. Feb. lit is be
IieYed that three criminal insane men,
who escaped from the state hospital
here, murdered William C. baltimore,
q keeper. who was pursuing them.
baltimore was discovered lying in
the roadway near the village of Seven
Stars by the mOtorman of a trolley
car. The motorman put on the brakes
but was unable to check the speed OF
the car, which passed over and sew
cred one Of Lattimore's arms.
The trolley crew then discovered
that baltimore was still alive and was
suffering from a deep cash over the
right eye. evidently inflicted some
time before the car struck him.
baltimore was rushed to the Charity
hospital. where he died. It was found
that the blow over the right eye had
fractured his skull This was taken as
additional evidence that baltimore
had caught up with the fugitive mad
men and had been struck down in a
fight or had been surprised by a sud
den attack, knocked senseless and left
lying beside the track.
The wound on the head might have
been indicted with the iron bar which
the madmen wrenched from the win
dow when they made their escape, and
which they are supposed to have taken
with them.
The attendants are securing the
countryside for the two madmen,
Monzo Hindo, thirty years old. and |
George Balgner thirty-six years old,
who are still at large.
John Weiss. sixty years old, who |
made his escape with Hindo and BaIg-
ner, was recaptured as he was about
to board a trolley car bound for Phila-
felDhia.

KNOX WILL
enter CABINET
Taft Announces That Senator
Has Accepted Post.
CONFERRED WITH PRESIDENT


The Heartiest Accord and Good Fellow
ship Exists Between the Incoming
and Outgoing Presidents-5oard Of
Engineers Unanimously Endorse the
Present Procedure In Constructing
Panama Canal.
Washington, FEB. l7.-In the opinion
Of President Elect Taft Philander c.
Knox is now legally eligible to receive
the appointment Of secretary Of state.
That he will be the premier in the
Taft cabinet was again positively
stated by Mr. Taft at the White House,
the statement being made after two
conferences between the president
elect and Mr.. Knox
Mr. Taft went further and gave It
as his opinion that no court could en-
tertain an action based on the consti
.tutionality OF Mr.. KnoXs coming ap
pointment, for the reasonHhat the first
question that would arise in such a
proceeding would be whether Mr
Knox was a "defacto" official OF the
government. This question. he main
tanned, would have to be answered in
the Affirmative. and there the proceed.
ing would end.
That Mr. Knox shares these views
was made evident by Mr. Taft in the
unequiyocal declaration that the Penn
sylyania senator was to be his secre-
tary of state.
With this question finally discussed
and settled, with the unanimous report
OF the board Of engineers endorsing
the present procedure in constructing
the Panama canal in the hands Of
President Roosevelt to be transmitted
to congress with a message OF en-
by him. and with a demon
strative scene Of cordiality towards
him by President Roosevelt. Mr. Taft
concluded a very busy day
After his conference with the presi-
dent Mr.. Taft was surrounded by the
men in the outer office,
when President Roosevelt dressed for |
his evening walk. came out He stood
for a moment unobserved. but with an
Of pleasurable enjoyment
on his face as the questions were be |
Ing hurled at the president elect.
Il would just like to see you take a
