DEADWOOD STREET YAWNS
AS MINE BENEATH CAVES
Boarding House Hangs on Edge
of Chasm

DEADWOOD. S. D., Sept 25.-The
firing of a blast at the 300-foot level
of the Homestake mine at Lead, S. D.,
early today started a cavern which
continued to the surface, making a
hole in the heart Of the city fifteen
feet wide and forty feet long.
When the dust had cleared away the
Bertolero boarding house was seen
hanging over the edge of the crevasse
and the Campbell hotel back steps led
into 1t.
Fright among the residents of Lead,
most of whom live above similar cav
erns, was allayed somewhat by assur-
ance from mining officials that there
was no danger of further caving.
The Homestake had hundreds of
miles of tunnels under the city and the
slopes form immense caverns reach
ing to the upper levels, well toward
the surface.

MY. FIGHT SHIFTS
TO THE PLATFORM
Roosevelt Forces at Saratoga
Will Stand Firm for Direct
Nominations Plank
Associated PressI


SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 25.-The
battle between the old guard Republf-
cans and progressives for control OF
the party through the state convention,
which meets here Tuesday, continued
unabated today, but interest has shifted
from the Sherman-Rooseve fight for
the temporary chairmanship to the ma
ture of the platform that will be
adopted, with special emphasis on the
direct nominations plank.
Although it has been announced by
the progressive leaders that the COM
mittee would not be asked to recon-
slider it's vote by which Vice President
Sherman was selected over Theodore
Roosevelt for temporary chairman, 1t
was said tonight that the old guard
would take the bull by the horns and
force the issue on their own account.
This indicates that the old guard
regards itself as still safely entrenched
in the committee.
While the reason advanced is that
the -conamittee owes itself formal vim
dication for its action in view of the
aspersions that have been cast upon
it by Col. Roosevelt's friends, the lat
ter say the real purpose is to harass
and embarraSS the colonel by placing
the committee on record for second
time that he is not the choice for tenn
porary chairman.
Though indications tonight point to
a safe control of the convention by
the Roosevelt forces, a report from old
guard headquarters is that only forty
votes were needed to swing the con-
vention into the Sherman colmn.
Members of the old guard were say
ing tonight that a lineup on tenn
porary chairman is very different
proposition from lineup on a plat
form.
1t is also rumored that trouble is
likely to arise over the Taft indorse-
ment. No opposition has developed to
an Endorsement of the presidents ad-
ministration, but there are hints the
old guard may attempt to put the Re-
publicans of New York state through
the convention on record as indorsing
the denomination of Taft two years
hence.

BOWERMAN FIRST
IN OREGON FIGHT
Assembly Faction Candidate Sc
cures Republican Nomination
for Governor in Primary
rAssociated Press1

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 25.-Returns
from the primary held in Oregon yes
terday indicate that A. w. Lafferty'
insurgent and anti-assembly candidate,
has secured the Republican nomination
for congressman from the Second dis
trict by about 1000 plurality.
In this county (Multnomah) Charles
J. Reed insurgent, is running ahead OF
w. r. Ellis, incumbent, and the stand
pat candidate of the assembly" fac
tion, but the Ellis support outside of
Multnomah is likely to place him in
second place.
In the First district w. G. Hawley,
incumbent, .'assembly'' candidate and
standpatter, has secured the nomlna-
tion for congress by about $500 major
ity over 3. F. Mullkley, insurgent.
For governor, . Jay BoWerman, the
assembly faction candidate for the Re-
publican nomination, has won by
safe margin probably about 1900, over
Grant b. Dimick, e. Hofer and Albert
Graham. Dimick gave Bowerman' the
hardest fight.
NOMINATIONS BY ASSEMBLY
The assembly and anti-assembly fac1
tions split about even on the other Re-
publican nominations. The assembly
has nominated +. w. Benson for secre-
tary of state; Thomas Mcbride, George
ii. BuTll6II anu Il Idllh ~ ALCOAO AOA
supreme judges, o. P. Hoff and Frank
Miller for railroad commissioners and
John H. Lewis for state engineer. The
faction has nominated
Thomas Kay for state treasurer, Henry
]. Bean for supreme judge, A. M.
Crawford for attorney general and
Willis S. Duniway for state printer.
The nominees for the legislature from
this county are Overwhelmingly in
favor of statement No. 1" (the pledge
of a legislator to support the popular
nominee for United States senator re-
gardless of the nominees party affilia-
tions).
In the state at large the victory of
the Statement" candidate'ha not been
quite so nearly unanimous as in Multi
nomah, but the majority of the Re
publican nominees are believed to be
pledged to the measure.
The Democrats put up a legislative
ticket in but few counties, and the vic
torious candidates are practically all
pledged. The only contest on the
Democratic ticket was between Oswald
West and Jefferson Myers for the gu
bernatorial nomination. West won
majority.

tions affecting labor is at the ballot

land, grand chief of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers.
URGES ENTRY IN POLITICS
whatever your political affiliations,
do not let party lines blind you to
your own interest, or prevent you from
doing what you think is best and
right. See that the men you vote for
stand for the right principles. regard
less Of party, and support those who
meet the requirements, and you will
not only be doing the best thing for
yourselves, but for the public.
"This is. not political move at all,
as is generally understood, but a move
to get away from the old lines of par
tisan politics."
In pursuance of this plan the meet
ing voted to send out a series of eight
questions to national and state candi-
dates, particularly to candidates for
the legislature and for the house of
representatives, asking for the opinion
on the universal adoption of safety
appliances and an employers liability
law-Where such does not already eX

nuated employees, hours of labor and
other matters of kindred interest.

gates at the meeting today, represent
ing the Brotherhood of Railway, Train

Engineers, the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen end Enginemen and
the Order of Railway Conductors. They
met by announcement to define their
attitude toward the application of rail
way laws now before the Interstate
commerce commission for permission
to increase rates, and, as had been ex-
pected, they passed resolutions favor
ing an increase.
It was decided that this represen-
tative meeting of the railway brother
hoods request our chief executives to
appear before the interstate commerce
commission, pending the pending rate
hearing, state our case and support
the proposals reasonably to increase
the existing rates"
In a letter to M. Flannery, chairman
of the executive committee of the en-
gineers at Buffalo, Chief Stone ex-
presses himself in thorough sympathy
with the movement.

erick Byre. who is now in Germany
The boys emptied the contents of some
of the cartridges into a bottle. Then
t.ey poured some of the dynamite out
of tho bottle and touched a match to it
The resulting flame fired the contents Of
the bottle, which was blown to pieces
The Daley boy was injured about the

hausted bY Long Voyage.

ciated crew was succored by Captain
Watts. Of the fruit steamer Banes. which
arrived here to-day from the West In
dies. Captain Watts said that last Mon
day, in latitude 31:17 north, and longi-

a distress signal from one Of the yard
arms. The vessel was the Dutch bark
VoorIichter. bound from Curacao. for
Hamburg
The crew was lined along the rail.
The men were weak and ernaciated, and
their appearance showed how much they
had suffered. They pleaded piteously for
food, and two boatloads were sent from
the steamer TO the bark.
II was learned from the commander of
the bark that her passage had been pro-
longed so long by Gains that the pro-
visions had practically given out.

TAFT MAKES PEACE
At BAR HARbOR
President to Deliver Address on
Village Green to Perma-
nent Residents.
NATIVES FELT SLIGHTED
Party on the Maydower Sees
Inquisitive Indians Rescued
by Grew - Emerys
Visit Delayed.

Bar Harbor Me, July 21.-President
Taft will speak on the village green here
tomorrow at noon and have a chance
to see the year-round residents Of this
famous watering place ard to be seen
by them. Until Mr.. Taft's intention TO
do this was announced to-day war
clouds were gathering fast between the
Maine citizens and the members Of the
fashionable summer colony, whose plans
for the entertainment of the Chief Mag
istrate and the members of his yachting
party failed to include any concession to
the village folk. of whom there are about
five thousand.
The President was informed Of the
situation this afternoon by J. P. Bass,
of Bangor. who has a summer residence
here. Mr. Taft at once consented to the
suggestion that he make little speech
to the villagers. The details were
quickly arranged and placards an
nOGnClDR
every vantage point and in all except
the ultra fashionable shop windows
The selectmen, the ruling powers Of
the township, were inclined to be little
sulky when they first heard of the plan
]. E Bunker, jr., first selectman, voiced
the sentiment of his associates when he
declared that a telegram had been sent
10 the President at Eastport, and that
as no acceptance of the invitation TO
speak had been received the town
fathers felt there was no more for them
TO do. and they were through with the
matter However, they thought that as
long as the advances had come from
the other side" they would be glad to
have the people see and hear the Presi-
dent. Tonight the threatened clouds
had all rolled away and there was a lot
of enthusiasm.
H c. Emery, chairman OF the new
Tariff Commission. could not reach Bar
Harbor this afternoon, and his scheduled
with the President was post
poned until tomorrow.
Social affairs and golf occupied the
Presidents day. He had blackboard
ride out to Jordan Pond tonight for a
shore supper Of lobster and other sea
dafnties II was a nine-mile drive each
way through a stiff westerly breeze that
brought an autumn breath with it
The most exciting incident of the
Presidents cruise thus far was the
rescue of two Indians who capsized their
canoe while the Mayfiower was at an
chor in Passamaquoddy Bay. They had
padded out to have a close look at the
Presidents big white yacht. Mr.. Taft
was on deck The Indians stood up to
have a better look. and a moment later
there was a splash, an overturned canoe
and two hats floating on the water.
The cry of Man overheard" rang
from one end of the yacht TO the other
The boatswain's shrill whistle plped the
men of the crew to the lifeboats. The
President called out for something 10 be
thrown TO the men at once.
By this time the Indians were on the
surface One clutched the canoe while
the other was making an effort TO reach
the Mayfiower Boats were quickly
lowered and the Indians were hauled
out. little the worse for their wetting. A
passing rowboat took them ashore.
