ON BIG PROJECT - WENAT-
CHEZ PEOPLE INTERESTED.

Work has begun on the big ditch
at Brewster in which Marvin Chase

interested. The project contemplates

Concerning the work on the ditch,
the Pateros Reporter says:
"Denny-Blain people of Seattle,
with whom are associated Walter
Granger and Marvin Chase, have COM

near Carlton. Last week the O. P.
I. company filed a water right on the
Methow river at Carlton for 1000
cubic feet per second of time and the
report comes down the line that at
present they are hard at work throw
ing dirt on the big project and are
buying right-of-way for the canal and
paying for same We do not know
what effect this will have on the
Hunner-Crane proposition or whether
they have sold out their interest to
the o. P I. people. All we know is
that there is dirt moving on the pro-
ject and that looks good. This pro-
ject when completed will water over

No H0PEFOR MINE
VICTIMS
CONCEDED THAT 800 TO 400 VIC
TINS OF ST. PAUL NINE ARE
ASTER.

Cherry, H., Nov. 15.-Shortly be-
fore noon hope was all but aban-
doned by relatives of 800 or more
men numbered as victims of the
greatest mine disaster in the history
of Illinois That not one man in the
hundreds entombed in the ST. Paul
Railway company's mine will be taken
from it alive is the opinion of those
at the scene. The rescuing party is
unable to penetrate deep into the
mine on account of the smoke and
gases and no bodies have been re-
covered.
The oxygen helmets of the rescu-
ers are useless in the smoke and gas
choked chambers.
Those entering the mines say it is
still on fire and caving badly. That
every bit of life giving air has been
exhausted many hours ago is GER
tain. The fact that no bodies have
been discovered by the rescuers in
dicates that when the imprisoned
men realized they were penned hope
lessly in a pit from which there was
10 exit they rushed to the further
most end of the vein, where some air
might have been found to keep them
alive until help came, but in all prob
ability this meagre supply of air was
long ago exhausted, in the opinion
of the experts who are on the ground
The St. Paul company. owners of
the mine, will provide for the burial
of the victims and a committees has
been appointed by President Earling
to devise plan of relief for the des-
titute.
Another outbreak of the fire in the
mine this afternoon prevented any
efforts to take out the bodies of the
fire victims. The mine was quickly
sealed again, thus virtually ending
all hope of any men being rescued
alive.

OvER-R|DES RAIL-
ROAD COMMISSION
GREAT NORTHERN NEED NOT
OBEY ORDER OF STATE RAIL
ROAD COMMISSION IN REGARD
TO ACCOMMODATION

The order of the state railroad
commission in reference to numerous
improvements along the Great North
ern railroad has been turned down
by the superior court. Judge Wilson
r. Gay, of Seattle, has given a deci-
sion by which the Great Northern
will not be compelled to put on an
additional day train. between Ana
cortes and Burlington and will not
have to do a great many other things
ordered by the state board of rail-
road commissioners.
The railroad also was sustained in
its appeal from the order to construct
200 feet additional team track at the
town of Custer and the citizens of
Sultan lose their fight for a removal
of their present depot and widen
ing of the depot platform.
The court saw no reason for COM
pelling changes in sanitation at Lea
venWorth, Wilson Creek and all other
towns along the route of the main
line, which preferred similar COM
plants.
The protest of the residents of La
mona, which was indorsed by the rail-
road commission, also did not appeal
to the court. They wanted their de-
pot moved across the track.
Another important ruling over
threw the order of the railroad COM
mission compelling Great Northern
express trains to stop at Blue Creek
and Kulzer's Spur.
Judge Gay gave memorandum
decision and will follow this later
with full opinion dealing with other
matters that were objected to by the
railroad when the commission made
its finding

INVOLVE FOREIGN
NATIONS

Spokane, Nov 15.-Officials of the
Industrial Workers of the World,
directing the free speech movement
in Spokane, are bending every effort
to involve the government in COM
plications with foreign nations as a
result of the threatened deportation
of aliens under the immigration laws
OF the United States Vincent ST
John, counsel for the union, has iIl-
structed the officials to insist upon
the return to Spokane of all persons
cited fCr deportation, and it is given
out that this plan will be followed.
The ranks of the modern revolu-
ticnists'' as the champions of free
speech call themselves, are sadly de-
pleted, following the wholesale ar
rests during the last ten days, and a
call has been issued for recruits.
They have also enlisted several hun

curing the consent of E. c. Hughes

ming of the hearing, but sessions will
probably be held in Spokane, in Wal
lace, Idaho, and other places in both

ulations and charges he replied that
while they would become public when
the hearing was begun he did not
feel at liberty to make them public
in advance of that time without con-
sulting Mr.. Hughes. Mr.. Hughes
readily gave his consent and when
word TO this effect was carried back
to Mr.. Sheridan he made the papers
public.

PO|NDEX1ER
FOR SENATE
FRIENDS WHO HAVE BEEN AC-
TIVE IN HIS BEHALF SAY HE
BELIEF.

Spokane, Nov. 15.-Miles Poindex-
ter of this city, representative in con-
gress from the Third Washington dis
trict, will be a candidate to succeed
Samuel H. Piles in the United States
senate Declaration of the intention
of Judge Poindexter was made by
some of his most intimate friends
yesterday. To questions Congress
man Poindexter replied:
Many of my friends have been
urging that / make the race, and l
shall make an announcement of my
plans id the near future"
The congressman smiled genially
when the subject was broached, but
no amount of questioning would in
duce him to commit himself further.
But one of the congressman most
intimate friends and advisers said
later in the evening:
Put it strong that he will be a
candidate, and his friends are of the
belief that the matter should be made
public. His supporters contend that
Spokane is entitled to a senator, and
he is the man to fill the bill. With
that end in view the vast portion of
the state lying east of the mountains
has been sounded thoroughly in his
behalf, and is supporting him to fin
ish. A large number of the dissatis-
fed party men west of the mountains
regard him as the logical man to step
in and take the tOga, thereby relieving
the bitter strife that already is threat
ening in King county because of the
candidacy of John l.. Wilson, Judge
Burke and probably of Senator Plies
to succeed himself, although the lat
ter is in the peculiar position of not
desiring to announce whether he will
retire"

Friends are Active.

Although Judge Poindexter has
been busy shaping his affairs to re-
turn to Washington for the coming
session of congress. his friends have
been active in sounding rne senator
ial situation. They are satisfied thor
oughIy with the result of reports.
Several meetings have been held
in this city in the last three weeks,
ana II is said representation from ev-
erv county east of the mountains
and from the cheif towns and cities
in this territory was at at the con-
ferences. correspondence has been
kept up with the local political lead
ers in different communities, al
though no press bureau has been es-
tablished. On the other hand, press
bureaus are said to have been start
ed by the Burke and Wilson forces
in Seattle, but the Poindexter peo-
pie are of the belief that the Coast
press bureau has proved of little
value. The Poindexter campaign has
been carried on as between friends in
different parts of the state.
The POindexter men declare that
mis- brief record in congress clearly
has proved him fighting leader. On
the other hand, these Poindexter
men assert, Senator Piles has noJ
r,ade good in attracting attention
either to himself or his state They
contend that as regards the other
candidates, Judge Burke is an un-
tried quantity in the national erena
and the same is true of Senator John
l.. Wilson as regards present day
problems, despite the fact that in
past years Mr.. Wilson had extensive
experience in public life at Washing
ton 1t also is asserted that Senator
Wilson is for harmony and the Joe
Cannon leadership policy, while
Judge Poindexter firmly is opposed
to Cannon, Is a militant worker in
congress and seems destined to shine
with such men as La Toilette.
1t is known that some of the Poin-
dexter people have been active on the
Coast during the last two weeks, and
a report was current yesterday that a
number of Coast papers and political
leaders may espouse his cause within
the next two weeks. The probabili-
t, is that Coast meeting for Mr..
Poindexter will be held in a few
days.
In Seattle, bitter strife is threaten
ed between the admirers of Judge
Eurke, John L. Wilson and Senator
Piles. The King county forces are
said to be divided among these three
Men. and reports that have reached
the Poindexter people are that har-
mony in King county seems extreme
ly remote as between these candi-
dates
