COLORADO PLUNGED in
GRIEF, AFTER GREAT
PRIMERO EXPLOSION.
(By United Press.)

PRlMERO, COL, Feb. 1.-Many
of the miners entombed in the
mine of the Colorado Fuel Co.,
where occurred a terrific expIo-
sion last evening, may still be alive.
Though 79 out of the 149 men in
the mine at the time of the disas-
ter are known to be dead, the find
Ing of one man, Dio Nardino, alive
gives hope that many of the others
in other parts of the mine may yet
be brought out alive.
BY the men working at opening
up the mine hope is entertained
that today many more may be
brought up alive.
Fighting madly through the par
TALLY choked air shaft, 70 men
were overcome by gases and were
found lying in heaps at the bot
tom of the shaft. Flames from the
explosion in the mine followed
them and many of the bodies were
charred before they were reached
by the members of the rescue
| party.
At 2 o'clock this morning only
one man had been brought out of
| the mine alive. He was uncon-
scious and badly injured, and his
escape Is attributed to the fact that
he was partially buried by a mass
of earth and timbers.
With a terrific roar and belch of
! flame the explosion occurred at
4:3O and the main shaft was
wrecked, blocking the entrance to
| the mine. Both the fans with which
the property is equipped were shat
tered and it was not until 7:45 D.
m. that the fans We're repaired and
a rescue party headed by General
superintendent J. f. Thompson was
able to descend the air shaft. They
discovered three bodies before they
were forced to return to the sur
face. Five men hundred yards
away We're killed at the entrance
to the main shaft by concussion.
Rescue parties were hurried to
Primero from Segundo, Starkville,
Sepris and Cokeville and worked
desperately to open the mine shaft.
1t soon became evident, however,
that the shaft was hopelessly caved
and another rescue party descend.

able to secure more strikebreakers
here. Several of the railroad Off
cials are doing their daily stunt as
switchmen. Some of these officials
are men of means, one in particular
being reported as worth over
100000. 1t is likely that his pres
ent and past loyalty to the interests
OF the big railroad corporations has
something 10 do with his affluent
circumstances.
In the meantime the strikers
stand to win. providing they do not
starve TO death before the company
capitulates.

Everything looks favorable for
the striking switchmen. The roads
having been unable to secure com
petent men to take the places of
the men who are out, the smashing
up of cars and cabooses continues
unabated, and wrecking crews are
kept busy. This is the statement of
railroad men employed in other de
partments of the railroads.

FOUL PLAY
(By United Press.)

BENECIA, Cal, Feb. Murder,
not accident, is believed today to
be the cause of the death of Mrs.
Margaret Mcclure, who perished
when her home was destroyed by
fire yesterday. Later develop
ments caused Coroner Klotz to
call District Attorney Haines and
Sheriff Mcdonald into consultat-
ton. The coroner informed county
officials that he found circum-
stances that pointed to foul play.
The bones of the woman were
found in the charred remains of
what appeared to have been a
trunk. The bones of the chest and
shoulders were close together,
while the skull of the aged woman
lay near the bones of the feet and
legs.

FALL Of
THESE|NE
IS SLOW
PARIS FEARS ANOTHER At
TACK BY THE
WATER.
SUBURBS ARE MADE
CLAIM OFFICIALS GIVE ALL
ATTENTION TO THE
CAPITAL.
(By United Press,)

PARIS, Feb. 1.-During the "a
hours ending at noon today the
Seine fell but a fraction over two
inches at Point d'AusterIitz, and
fears were expressed that the wa
ters may rise and renew their at
tack upon the city. The water at
the bridge measured IS feet 8
inches.
The slow recession is attributed
by the fiuvial department to the
slight rise in the River Yonne,
tributary to the Seine. 1t probably
will not affect the Seine greatly. A
general protest arose in the su-
burbs because of the undivided at
tention the authorities are giving
to Paris. Aside from the actual
work of rescuing persons whose
lives are menaced by floods, the
suburbs have been practically neg
lected, according to their indignant
residents.
The property loss in the outskirts
of Paris and surrounding cities has
been proportionately greater than
in the capital itself.

And the peculiar thing about it,
Is that 1t was voluntary contribu-
ton, given without any compulsory
action on the part Of the streetcar
magnates.
If the car companies were to take
steps to cut off the avenue by which
the people can save this $4,000
annually, there would be a protest
that would sweep the city from one
end to the other, yet the people
largely permit the chance to re-
trench to slip by simply because it
is small matter and they are too
busy to bother with it.
How was this gift to the car COM
panies made last year? Why, simply
by only 10 per cent of the people
availing themselves of the oppor-
tunity to secure 10 per cent re-
duction in the cost of street car
fares through the use of tickets.
Think of it, a chance to save 10
per cent in one of the fixed costs of
living, and yet only 10 per cent of

THE "NERv|EST" POLICE
BEAT IN SPOKANE?

Ask a policeman what beat in
the town requires the services of
the nerviest man on the force, and
rine times out of ten he will tell
you that his beat is the one you are
looking for. OF course, he doesn't
say all that in so many words, but
when you get down to business and
look on the books for the name Of
the officer who covers the horrible
territory you have SO recently
heard about, 1t Is invariably no
other than the man to whom you
rave just been talking.
Outside of their own beats, the
bluecoats nearly all agree that the
district around Main and Stevens Is
the hardest in town. Hence it takes
a nervy man to walk that beat. In
fact, 1t requires so much nerve that
two coppers are stationed there. II
there was only one. then we'd have
to admit that the patrolman who
covers it is the nerviest man on the
force. But, alas, there are two,
which is one too many. Hence the
second spasm-

In 1909 the earnings on the city
lines of the Washington Water
Power Co. and the Spokane Trac-
tion Co. are estimated to have been
100000. Street railway men place
the number of people who pay fares
with tickets at 10 per cent of the
whole number who ride. This would
leave $4,000 paid in cash fares,
and Il saving of 10 per cent on this
amount is $4,000
Conductors on the lines will tell
you that not to exceed five per cent
of the people use tickets, but at the

was stated that the records show 10
