FOUR SHOT FIRERS LOST
Second Blast Wrecks Deering Mine
and Rescue is Abandoned

Benton, H., Feb. 1S.-A second ex-
plosion occurred in mine No. Is of the
Deering Coal company, seven miles
southwest of this city yesterday. 1t
was more severe than the one of Tues
day, which entombed four shot firers.
Soon after the first explosion a rescu-
ing party when about 30 feet from the
bottom of the shaft discovered the
mine to be on fire and returned to
the mouth of the shaft. The second
explosion wrecked the mine, and as it
is all on fire in the underground work
ings the mine has been sealed. 1t is
likely the four bodies will never be
recovered

Yesterday in Congress

Washington Feb. 1S.-Following is a
summary. compiled from the official
proceedings, of the work of both
houses of congress yesterday:
SENATE - The naval bill carrying
total appropriations of about $136.000
OO0, was passed yesterday. after having
been under consideration for three days.
The bill was changed by restoration of
the house provision for two battleShipS
of 10000 tons displacement. to cost &c.
100000 each. An Intellectual effort was
made to defeat the amendment for res
toration of the marine corps to battle
ships and cruisers of the navy. which
was placed in the measure while the
senate was proceeding in the commi ttee
| of the whole. During the last hours of
| the session Senator La Toilette severe
lly criticised the methods of the navy.
| declaring that senatorial influence in
the work of the department caused an
Iunbusiness-iike development of navy
yards and stations. Adjourned at .35
| p. m.
| HOUSE-An attempt to abolish cap
litai punishment as a penalty under fed
leral laws blocked the conclusion of con-
sideration of the penal code bill in the
Ihouse. sitting in committee of the whole
tThe bill was taken UP after the house
had become entangled in the knor ELI
Jgibility question and had laid the ques-
| ton aside for the day. The most i'm

shipment of Intoxicating liquors. Rep

the amendment was entered, but with
out avail No record vote was taken,
the house proceeding under suspension
of the rules.
Opponents Score Measure.
Representative Bartholdt of st.
Louis and Representative Kusterman,
whose district in Wisconsin is not
many miles from Milwaukee, opposed
the amendment on the ground that it
was a discrimination against beer in
favor of beverages that were more
deleterious to health. If the interstate
shipment of liquor was to be prohi
bited, as proposed. Mr.. Bartholdt in
sisted that the law should extend Ito
cider. so-called temperance drinks and
all other beverages containing more
than 5 per cent of alcohol" He offered
an amendment to this effect, which
failed of adoption
1t is generally conceded by member.
of the house. that the amendment
adopted will greatly encourage those
who advocate absolute prohibition o
the liquor traffic
