GAS EXPLODES;
Il ARE KILLED
Only Two Men Are Taken
Cat Alive.
ONE DIES IN SHORT TIME

Greene, Va, Scene Of Terrible Dis
aster, Said to Have Been Caused
by Careless Workman Entering
Chamber on Lower Level With
open Lamp-Fire Follows First
Blast and Draft Fans at Entrance
Are Shattered by Conclusion.
Norton, Va, Dec. 15.-As a result
of an explosion in the mine Of the
Bond Coal company at Greene, six
miles east of here, II men lost their
lives. Thirteen were in the mine at
the time of the explosion and only
two escaped, one Of whom died soon
after being taken out.
John Richie and Charles Rosen-
baum were rescued alive. but Richie
succumbed to his injuries. Rosen-
baum's injuries are slight and he is
able to walk.
The same mine had a similar ex-
plosion three years ago, in which six
men were killed.
Immediately after the explosion oc-
cured Superintendent James Bar.
rowman, with three mine bosses,
started down the shaft as a rescue
party. Upon reaching the bottom
they signaled for the stop. and have
not been heard from since. 1t is
thought they died in the mine. So
far 10 bodies have been recovered
and one man, partly alive. was taken
out. but he is not expected to live.
The explosion is said to have been
caused by an accumulation of gas in
the lower levels being set fire to by
an open lamp belonging to one of the
miners, but this can not be con-
firmed.
State mine inspectors armed with
gas muzzles and other safety appli'
ances arrived several hours after the
disaster, and are assisting in the
work of removing the bodies.
Fire broPe out in the mine follow
ing the first explosion, and frantic
efforts are being made to get some
aid to the imprisoned men. 1t is de-
clared the draft fans at the entrance
were shattered by the explosion, so
great was its force.

No Signs OF Violence Found on Body
Of Florence Baer, Found Under
Tree In sparsely Settled District.
Was About TO Become a Mother
Buggy STraeks Lost When Trail
Strikes County Road--No Evidence
4. of Suicide. Ee 81 1S 4
Columbus. o., Dec. 15.-The young
girl whose body was found in a va
cant lot on the West Side was iden;
tilted by Fred Baer, farmer living
near Grove City, as his daughter,
Florence Baer, 19. No clew has been
secured as to the manner of hei
death, although the police are con.
fideut she did not die where found.
-7Thef autopsy by Police Surgeons
'obetE and Pickering served only to
deepen the mystery as to the cause
OF the young woman's death.
Some of the facts developed at the
autopsy were that her stomach was
empty and in healthy condition, her
heart and lungs normal, and that she
would have become a mother in
about six months. There was no
sign OF any attempted operation.
At the conclusion of the autopsy
the physicians said there was re-
mote possibility that the young wom-
an had died under the influence of
chloroform or ether, administered
preparatory to performing an opera
ton. The stomach, though empty,
will be subjected to chemical analy-
sis for traces Of any subtle poison.
There were no marks on the body
90 indicate murder. There were no
signs to suggest suicide. The entire
city detective force is working on
the mystery.
Every circumstance supports the
deduction, the police say, that the
body was taken, after death had oc-
CURED, to the place where it was
found by b: L. Smith when he-was
crossing the field to a grocery store
for breakfast supplies. -
, The body was lying in an orderly,
carefully arranged manner Gu the
back, without any evidence Of
struggle. The shoes were without
snow, ice or mud, tending to. show
the wearer had not walked there
Tracks OF a rubber-tired buggy and
footprints OF an unshod horse were
found leading down over the hill on
the south to the tree. and back again
over the hill down Avondale avenue,
thence TO Mound street and ont Jack
son pike.
Nothing about the woman's clothes
OF in a small cloth suitcase which
was lying by her side furnished a
elew to her identity. The condition
OF the body Coroner HGnes said, in
dicated 1t had been placed under the
tree not earlier than four hours pre-
vious to the time It was found. NO
one living in that section recalls see
ing or hearing any vehicle being
driven down the hill to that spot be-
tween the hours thus indicated. The
neighborhood is but sparsely- built up,
in the direction from which the
wheel and horse tracks lead. as 1t Is.
opposite and adjoining Mt. Calvary
cemetery.
In a suitcase near the girls body
was a card, which read: "Will be
with you in 20 minutes, Clifford"
No clew has been secured toward
establishing the writer's identity.

WAR AGAINST GRAFT

NM HEN Andrew Carnegie Wept over
w Pittsburg he realized the thor
oughness of the graft infection.
Character, reputation, record, respon-
sibility-all had gone down to defeat
before covetousness. It was the most
humiliating exposure of the pitiable
weakness of human nature our har-
assed civilization has as yet mad to
endure.
The bank directors implicated in the
colossal scandal represent $500 900, 900
in wealth, and among them are officers
of the Steel corporation, the Westing-
house company and the Carnegie insti-
tute.
The exposure has only been begun.
With the approval of several hundred
business men, the Voters league has
made a new contract with Wilson, the
detective.
Greed is the cause of graft in Pitts
burg, and everywhere else. No longer
will it be possible to say only the
poor and the miserable and the natur-
ally depraved steal, and then only be-
help it. Alas, there is a point at which
human consciousness of right and
wrong becomes confused by reason of
desire for gain and ordinary processes
Of reasoning are either suspended or
perverted
Analysed and traced back to its first
principles, doubtless the Pittsburg
graft scandal sprang from the root of
all evil, which is the love of money. As
long as the prize of life is financial
gain there will be scandals. The only
real gain is Godliness, with content
ment, and the only real national honor
is based upon righteousness, which ex-
alteth nation.
One of the causes of the Pittsburg
scandal is the failure of the nation to
insist that public schools should teach
expound, explain and impress on the
sensitive minds of the young the first
principles of Americanism. 1t is all
very well to say there shall be no
religious teaching in~schools; but the
exclusion of notwithstanding is not
good reason for the suppression of
ethical instruction.
If we cannot have morality in the
form of sectaran religious training,
then by all means let US have it in the
logical form Of applied ethics. Our
young Americans should not be sent
into the world without definite knoWl-
edge of basic right and fundamental
wrong, and the teaching of morality
and especially of business morality,
should be pursued with great vigor
for therein lies the redemption of the
nation.

OIL LANDS

~ IMPORTERS of national conserva-
ton policies are chagrined by the
~ turn affairs have taken with re-
gard to the withdrawal of oil lands, as
a fight against the Pickett bill might
by easterners not too we'll informed
as to western conditions be interpreted
as an anti-conservation measure. For
this reason the delegation that will
represent California's great industry
at Washington will have to adopt the
most primitive methods of explanation,
and on a plain statement of facts may
win their case.
Experiences in the Pennsylvania
fields may be of some service to the
men who are opposed to a policy which
they say would ostensibly withdraw
oil, but in reality would deliver it to
the Southern Pacific and the trust.
The injustice both to the small inde-
pendent operator and to the govern
ment in a measure like the Pickett bill
lies in the fact that oil cannot be con-
served like wood or coal, or metallic
ores. This kind of conservation would
be a physical impossihility. When the
government oil land is withdrawn, the
owner of large tracts of patented land
does not stop operations, but continues
to pump and extract the oil, thus eX-
hausting the pool.
If at some future time operations
should be resumed on withdrawn land
there would he no oil TO conserve or de-
velop. 1t would all have been drained.
A genuine application of the conser-
walton policy to the oil deposits would
be beneficial, if such could be made,
but a conservation policy that hinders
an Independent operator from carrying
on development work, While a big or
corporational owner like the trust or
its Southern Pacific ally takes adyan-
tage of the natural laws governing the
conserved natural resources, is not con-
servation, but confiscation.

OUR FIREMEN

A \ effort is being made to popu-
"A larize the fire department service
"A in Los Angeles, which under
present conditions is said to be losing
men who would make good firemen.
Chief Todd recommends amendment of
the rules so that applicants for posi-
tions as f1remen will be examined only
as to their physical fitness. He says
the educational and technical tests
should be dispensed with, as a fire
man might be an excellent member of
the department and yet be entirely
lacking in literary knowledge. Chief
Todd's statements have a reasonable
ring. When the fire laddies are sum-
moned to their posts Of peril and duty
their higher education and general
knowledge are of less Importance than
their strength, courage and skill.
