NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

According to the records kept by
the technologic department, the
Cherry disaster will rank as the sec
ond greatest in this country, the 9TH
er being that at Monongah, w. Va,
in which 356 miners lost their lives.
Designs have been approved for the
new postal cards to be issued January
list. On the ordinary card the head
of the late President Mckinley will
appear, as now, but much better
likeness of the martyred President has
been selected. On the small card, in
tended for index purposes and for So
cial correspondence, a likeness of
President Lincoln will appear. The
two-cent international card will bear
portrait of General Grant. A novel
and pleasing innovation has been
made for the reply postal card. On
the first half will appear a portrait
OF George Washington, while the
stamp on the second or reply half
will be likeness of Martha Washing
ton.

British Ministry Stands Firm.

London-"It is my opinion that it
Is impossible that any liberal gov
ernment can ever again bear the
heavy burden of office unless it is Sc
cured against repetition of treat
ment such as other measures have
had to undergo for the last four
years"
This sensational declaration by
Lord Loreburn, lord high chancellor
in the debate on the budget, in the
House of Lords Monday, had an cleo
trical effect upon the Liberal men,
bers of the House Of Commons who
crowded the galleries.
1t was held that Lord Loreburn's
statement would only mean that no
Liberal leader henceforth will accept
office unless he receives pledge
from the crown that enough peers
will be appointed on the premier's
nomination to secure the House of
Commons against interference from
the House of Lords in financial mat
ters.

FIRE AGAIN THREATENS TO STOP
PROGRESS OF RELIEF
PARTY.
ONLY TWENTY SAVED
FATE OF ONE HUNDRED AND
ElGHTY-NINE PERSONS YET
UNKNOWN.

Cherry, ILL.,, Nov. 23.-Fire broke
out with renewed violence in the sec
ond gallery of the St. Paul mine early
this morning, and now threatens to
spread to the main shaft. All work
Of rescue has ceased. while the entire
working force is fighting the fire.
Should the main shaft be injured ma
terially by the fire, all hope of aiding
those in the mine for many days will
be ended.
Rescuers who carried up forty-two
bodies from the St. Paul mine Mon
day said there was evidence that the
men had walled themselves in for
several days, but had emerged to seek
food or water and had met death in
the black damp.
At point beyond where the search
ers had gone, several declared they
could see the shattered blocking of
pocket where the men had taken
refuge. The bodies were scattered
along the gallery for many yards, and
the men who found them believed the
victims collapsed from weakness or
asphyxiation before going fifty yards
towards the entrance.
Dozens of volunteers worked
against the most exasperating odds to
extend the limit of their explorations.
Earth and coal were removed only to
be followed by other cave-ins.
They're still alive down there"
was the watchword of every worker,
Ill &c
ically meager.
The first ray of hope came when
men working at the east workings
broke through fall of earth where it
had been expected by experts that a
large number of bodies would be
found. Not one was discovered. In
stead in q tool closet, hewed out OF
the earth, a great many mining imple-
ments were found, as laid down, ap-
parently when the men came there to
eat. A fact regarded as significant
was that not dinner pail remained.
From this it was argued that the men,
unable to escape when the fire was
discovered, retreated to some eXtrem
ity of the mine, carrying their food
The next ray of hope came with the
discovery that the bottommost gallery
west, was not sufficiently flooded to
impede progress.
The recovery Of forty-two bodies
during the day was attended by some
Of the saddest scenes of the disaster.
Across the fields as the first signal Of
bodies coming up was given, STUN
bled almost 100 women and children,
who had been driven from the shaft
side by the fierce wind and cold.
The Identification of the bodies was
comparatively easy task. There
were no smoke stains or burns on the
bodies of those taken out and physi-
clans declared that all but few had
died Of asphyxiation. Some had torn
every vestige Of clothes from their
bodies in their death agony.
Following is the situation to date:
Number trapped in mine, $40.
Rescued alive, 20.
Bodies recovered today, AZ.
Bodies recovered previously, SO.
