tinuc to Rage.
Cherry, ILL.,, Nov. 17.--Despair has
seized the rescuers trying TO reach
the 800 men entombed in the St
Paul mine here. Science, bravery
and skill have utterly failed in the
fight for life.
Eighty.three hours of fighting has
only added to the horror of the dis
aster. Twice have the rescuers been
worsted by the fire. One more dos
perate attempt will be made by the
fire fighters. Hope has already been
abandoned by some of the experts. A
few think some of the men may be
safe and may live for weeks yet. In
tense cold does not stop the vigil oil
the women. For three days and four
nights they have watched beside the
shafts. They mourn as for the dead
but hope is still family alive In their
hearts. Fire still RACES in the mine
which is sealed, shutting out the air
that might give life to men below.
That all the men in the mine are
dead seems beyond doubt and the
authorities fear rioting when rnis be
comes known or when the removal OF
the bodies begins.
Two companies of militia from
Galesburg and one from Kewanee
have arrived in response TO Governor
Deneen's order and are stationed AT
the mine entrance to prevent any
demonstration when the bodies OF
the men are brought to the surface

Want Steel Industry Probed.

Toronto. Nov. II. - Congressional
investigation of the steel industry, as
II relates to labor, was indorsed by
the executive council of the Amer

cided to petition congress to appoint
a special committee to investigate
the methods employed by all great
corporations engaged in the steel
business and If 1t is found that the
tariff Is being used to maintain cor
poration profits rather than a bene

federation will recommend that the
tariff on steel be suspended.

GATHERS MUCH EVIDENCE

Finds That Twenty-Five Assistant
Weighers In New York Customs
House Are Under Suspicion Of Be-
ing In Employ Of Sugar Trust--Sec-
retary Maeveagh Says Many Sur
prises Are In store When He
Starts to Clean House.
Washington, Nov. II. 49, The wide
spread condition of crookodness pre-
vailing In the New York customs
house is shown by an official state
ment issued by the United States
civil service commission.
In this statement the commission
says that 1t has been informed by
the Office of the collector of customs
in New York that % assistant
weighers "are known to be implicat
ed in the frauds or are under sus-
picion of a positive character" The
statement applied to the sugar
frauds only. This is more than II
per cent of the total number of as.
sistant weighers employed IN the
New York custom house. With the
elimination of ten assistant weighcrs
who are working under the tempo
rary appointments and whose service
In the custom house seems TO have
been of recent origin, the percentage
of those known to be implicated or
under suspicion of a positive char
acter, is increased to nearly 10 per
cent.
This statement made by the com.
mission was brought forth by the al
legations that the sugar trust had
had hand in the selection OF as7
sistant weighers at the New York
custom house who were appointed
after examination under the civil SER
vice rules and who are protected by
those rules. Nothing is said in the
commissions statement about en-
ployes protected by the civil service
who are known to be implicated or
suspected of completely in the
bribery and corruption that has been
going on there. IL is apparent that
when the whole truth becomes known
as to the number of employees of the
New York custom house who are con
cerned in the dishonesty there In
connection with the importations, the
country will be startled by the wide
spread extent of the conspiracy to
defraud the government.
That congress will make inquiry
into the charges concerning the man.
ner in which the sugar trust has
been bleeding the government now
appears to be assured. Two Repub-
lican members of the house of rep
resentatives declared that an inYos-
tigation could not be avoided and a
Republican United States senator,
who did not wish to be quoted in the
matter expressed an opinion along
! the same lines. Such an investiga-
ton necessarily will include probing
into the rottenness in the New York
custom house.
Secretary of the Treasury Nc
Veagh announced that his intention
was not only to reorganlze, but to re-
| habilitate the New York customs
house. He explained that by re-
Mobilization he meant not merely a
reorganization to be conducted along
business lines, bat change that
would touch the Atmosphere" and
the tone OF the personnel. Mr.. Mac
Veagb went on TO say that he had
begun his inquiries last March OF
the basis OF information the treasury
department bad at the time he as
sumed Office and that he had given
considerable attention TO the matter

sources is Imperative.

Cincinnati, o.. Nov, l7.-Pleas for
the government regulation OF monop-
olies were voiced before the joint
convention of the National Municipal
league and the American Civic as
sociation by former Secretary of the
Interior James II. Garfield and Presi.
dent Emeritus Charles w, Eliot Of
Harvard. Both spoke on the conser-
vation OF natural resources and both
declared that 1t was imperative that
the government take immediate steps
towards that end
A note of warning was sounded by
Mr.. Garfield, who asserted that the
country's natural resources were In
imminent danger OF exhaustion and
that the interests which develop this
source OF national wealth must be
regulated upon the same lines as
have already been adopted in respect
to the railroads.
Mr. Garfield also maintained that
the interests OF the people were not
being properly safcgunrded IN the
Alaska coal fields and that legislator
on that subject was urgently needed.

INDEPENDENT PHONE
MEN TALK MERGER
Plan to Unite All Exchanges In
Buckeye State.

Columbus, o., Nov. 17.-Consolida-
tion Of the Independent telephone
corporations of Ohio into one strong
body Is to be discussed at meeting
of independent managers at the Chit
tenden hotel this afternoon. In ad-
dition to consolidation of all indepen-
dent exchanges, II is contemplated
that connecting lines will be built to
give the independents statewide
long distance service of their own.
The announcement that the Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph com
pany, the controlling force in the
Bell Telephone companies, had oh
tanned control of the Western Union
Telegraph company, makes 1t certain
to the minds of the local indepen-
dent telephone men that 1t Is the
Postal Telegraph company. for which
James S. Bradley purchased the
United States Telephone company,
the Cuyahoga Telephone company
and the New Long Distance Tele-
phone company of Indiana.
They point out that the acquisition
of these companies places the Postal
In just as strong a position as the
Western Union, and that If the Post
al, as has been asserted, practically
controls the a. IT, and r., that the
deal makes It possible for a gigantic
amalgamation Of the telegraph and
telephone companies of the country.
AS the A. T. and r. has announc-
cd that large holding company is to
be formed TO merge the telegraph and
telephone companies, It is possible
that in short time a similar an
nouncement will be made by the
Postal officers. The purchase of the
independent long distance companies
gives the Postal thousands of miles
of new line in Ohio and Indiana and
makes It as formidable competitor
of the Bell in the telephone as in the
telegraph field.

hundreds Of employees Of the New York

ere Of the st. Louis. knowing that Il
big share OF their heavy burden of
Christmas work was over.
No one thing rejects the condition of
prosperity III the United States better
than the volume of Christmas mails for
Europe The authorities have learned
ter. Following the panic in 1907 there
was startling drop in the number of
money orders issued on Europe for the
! Christmas season. That the country
/ is again enjoying it's full measure of
prosperity is evidenced by the fact that
tho outward bound Christmas mails
were never heavier than they have
been during the past few weeks.
The bulk of the money orders and
Christmas presents sent abroad go IL
Germany. England. Sweden, Russia AMI
Italy. For many years Ireland held
first place on the list. but now the
Emerald Isle has fallen behind several
OF the Continental countries. 1--WE
things are held responsible fer the fall
/ ing of of the amount of money sent to
/ Ireland at Christmas time, One OF
these is that the number of immigrants
from Ireland has steadily decreased
during the past decade or so. aud the
ether reason is to be found in the great.
er prosperity which Ireland herself en-
joys.
The number of fareign-born Ameri.
