 Sixty Others.

Victoria. E. C., Oct 5.Thirty miners are known to be dead as the result ofanex plosion at Extension Mine No. ?, of the Wellington Col fiery today.
 The death list will likely be even larger as so miners were entombed, but 25 were rescued badly injured
 The shock was terrific, but It's ef- feet was confined to the slope where in it occurred. All of the men in the other slopes and levels escaped.
 Five bodies have been recovered. Fifty men were engaged in rescue work.
 Hundreds of inhabitants and miners volunteered aid but the nature of the rescue work precluded more than % being engaged.
 The rescuers hoped the flames would die down so as to permit the rescue of the entombed, but their chances seemed hopeless.
 The explosion was due to fire damp. the timbers in two levels alone ignit- ing and the fire spreading with great rapidty
 Residents of Nanaiao have been prevented from going to Extension, where the disaster occurred, and only 'rescuers. miners and officers are on the scene Only meagre details were available late tonight
 Rapidly spreading fire prevented .rescuers from completing their work.
 Late tonight rescuers were making efforts to enforce further entrance in to the two levels affected by the ex. plosion.
 The men employed in the collier ies on Van Couver Island are of the better class of Britis miners. All are well paid and have comfortable homes
 The Wellington Colliery company which owns the Extension mine is controlled by British Columbia captai- ists, Lieutenant ksovernor Dunsmuir being the head of the corporation.

Below S4 we had drifted with an ac. tive pack
 We were helplessly carried to the west until unable to reach our caches along Nansen Sound. We were push. ed into Prince Gustave Sea with food and fuel exhausted. Still unable to press eastward, we went with the ice to the south, food and fuel now ex- hausted. Polar bears came to our rescue as life savers.
 We then went into Wellington Channel. hoping to be able to reach whalers in Lancaster Sound, but we were soon stopped by failing food sup plies and young small ice. With no game this short route to an carly ship was no longer possnble and to satisfy the bangs of hunger. we worked to Jones Sound. Here, after a long run of hard adventure by boat and sleigh, cruel necessity forced us into win ter camp in September at Cape Spar bo without fuel and food amnuni. tion or winter clothing and with no guns and no dogs.
 An underground camp was built and the winter of 190S-09 passed with taste of everything save fresh meat for we had not a morsel of civilized food, not even salt A new equip ment was devised and as soon as the sun of 1909 rose over the hills of North Devon we started for Annatok in February, 1909, dragging dried musk oxen meat as food and melted tallow as fuel for thirty days on our sledges

MEXICAN PEASANTS IN DISTRESS BECAUSE OF COLD WAVE IN
 NORTHERN SECTION.
Relief Committee Formed to Relieve the Suffering of Many Who Wln
 Die If They Do Not Receive

Monterey. Mexico, Oct 5.-Reports coming in from the isolated districts of the states of Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipais still show that a great deal of destitution exists throughout these districts and the suffering has been made more acute by the sudden cold wave which has prevailed in Northern Mexico for the greater part of the past week.
 Consul General Hanna, representing the National Red Cross Society, has been distributing relief in these dis tricts as much as possible by the employment of pack trains, one or two being sent out daily.
 Persons sent in charge of these trains on returning to this city, tell a story of the most narrowing kind. Whole communities have been found without shelter of any kind and in many cases without clothing sufficient to protect them from the weather Every effort is being made to re- lieve this condition of affairs, not only by the American consuls at Matam0os, Tanrpico and Saltillo, as we'll as here. but by the citizens relief committee of this city. The sufferers in Monterey have been and are well provided for.
 Little assistance is needed here at she present time, but out in the coun. try districts the story is different. Ever since the night of August 26 the greater part Of the two states men toned has been cut off from railroad communication and it has been with the greatest difficulty that relief in any shape has been gotten to these people.
 Consul General Hanna says that lit tie money is needed the principal necessity being blankets, clothing and food supplies.
 What the floods left of the crops throughout the devastated district, have been killed by the recent frosts and the condition of the poorer and laboring classes is pitlable in the ex. treme.
 The city. state and federal govern ments are dong everything possible for the relief and aid of the people in these districts and since the Tam. pico branch has been opened to Mon. temorelos, several large shipments of supplies have been dispatched over that line The Matamorus branch is only opened to Los Herrera, this state, and it Is stated by railroad people that this line will not be open ed clear through from terminal to terminal before the end of this month. "
 This adds greatly to the difficulty in reaching the sufferers in the towns of Doctor Costa, Bravo and several othens that have been reported ce. stroyed WI
 All the money sent to this city, has been handled by committee Of the prominent business men of Monterey and there are three large distributing places for supplies here and many people are being cared for by this committee rapidly approaching win. ter will cause much distress among the inhabitants throughout the coun. try districts unless more aid can be got to them before the weather gets much colder.

Mr.. Clay reviewed the establishment
OF the so-called sugar trust which was
formed, he said, in 1887 by the con-
solidation of twenty of the leading re-
fneries. While the actual value of
the property of the trust was not
greater than $1O,O0O.OOO, according to
MI Clay, the sugar trust stocked the
company at $50,OOO,0O0. He said that
the concessions in the duty on raw
sugar from the Hawaiian Islands, Por-
to Rico, Cuba and the Philippine ISL
ands during the last ten years amount
ed 1912, 220,773, of which, he said. the

CLAY ROASTS
SUGAR TRUST.

WASHINGTON, ID c., May 19.-Se-
verely arraigning the so-called sugar
| trust and urging material reduction
in the duty on refined sugar, Mr.. Clay,
of Georgia, today discussed at great
length the various phases of the beet
and cane sugar industries. He ar
gued that the consumer is discrimin-
ated against in favor of the American
Sugar Refining Company and that the
sugar grower gets no benefit of the
differential between the duties on raw
and refined sugar He criticised most
severely the manner in which the SUI
gar schedule of the Payne bill was
framed
Contending that the American SUI
gar Refining Company owns the prin-
cipal refineries in the United States
and is almost without competition in
refining sugar, Mr.. Clay declared that
the duty on refined sugar almost pro-
hibits the importation of foreign SUI
gar into this country. He said that
the beet grower and the cane grower
of sugar both are compelled to sell to
it fixes. Comparing the wholesale
price of graduated sugar in Hamburg
and in New York, which he said was
2.31 cents per pound cheaper in Ham
burg, Mr. Clay figured that the Anne
rican consumer pays a difference Of
$780, $50, 900 for it's refined sugar or
this, he said, the government gets $685.
100000 in customs duties, while, he
said, the sugar trust gets the other
500 900, 900
"The American consumers of sugar
have paid to the American Sugar Re
filming Company, commonly called the
Sugar Trust at least fifty-five mil
lions per year in profit" said Mr..
Clay, amounting in twelve years to
$660000000. The American people are
not aware of the fact that if the SUI.
gar we import came into this country
free of any duty, both raw and re-
fined, the cost of sugar to the Ameri-
can consumer would he reduced near

ly one-half. / am not insisting that
both refined and raw, or either, should
come to this country free of duty,
but there ought to be substantial
reduction over the rates fixed in the
Dingley law"
Replying to the argument that SUI
gar is great revenue producer Mr..
Clay desired to know why one of the
necessaries of life, used by the entire
American people should be taken and
it's cost increased to the consumer
one-half when, he contended, the
amount of the revenue now produced
by sugar could easily be supplied by
an income tax.
Let us give TO the American peo-
pie cheap sugar." continued Mr.. Clay,
Let us grasp the sugar trust by the
throat and strange it to death, and
keep in view the interest, the happi-
ness, and welfare of the plain peo-
pie OF America. We must remember
that sugar is an important article of
food daily consumed by every man,
woman and child in the country "
Mr.. Clay said the sugar growers of
Cuba, Porto Rico, the Philippines, or
the Hawaiian Islands or the consum-
ers in the United States received no
benefit from the concessions made in
the duty on raw sugar from those ISL
ands. Mr.. Clay declared that the price
of refined sugar was not reduced be-
cause of the reductions in the rates on
raw sugar.
Reterating that the American SUI
gar Refining Company is commonly
called the sugar trust, Mr.. Clay de-
clared, this trust has constantly vio-
lated both the criminal and civil laws
of our country. 1t is unconscionable
and has continually robbed the Anne
ricaD people since it's organization.
