were on snowshoes. The thermometer
was II degrees below zero, and as the

HUNT FOR HUGE
WOOD BISON.
How Harry v. Radtord Killed
Americas Greatest Mammal.
FIRST SLAIN BY WHITE man.

The Creature Weighed Over Twenty
four Hundred Pounds and Was Al
most Six Feet Hieh-lts Skeleton,
Hide and Head to Be Sent to New
York Museum.
That the wood bison is not
myth, but gigantic reality, will be
demonstrated beyond question early
in May, when the skeleton, hide and
horned head Of the largest wild animal
ever shot on the American continent
Is shipped from near Fort Smith,
Northwest Territories, to be added to
the collection in the Museum of Nat
ural History at New York. Not only
is it the greatest in bulk, but it is the
first wood bison ever killed by
white man.
Harry V. Radford of New York,
known a few years ago as "Adiron-
dack Harry because Of his familiari-
ty with the wilds of northern New
York, was the successful hunter, and
to prevent doubt being cast upon his
claims he has made affidavit as to the
circumstances, and this deposition,
with the statements of his Indian
guides and the five white men who as,
sisted in SHINING the creature, will
be submitted to the American Bison
society, which is collecting all availa-
BILE data concerning the nearly extinct
mammal It was under its auspices
that he undertook the search.
Nearly Six Feet High.
| The weight of the bison shot by Rad
| ford was 2,4O2 pounds; length Of head
| and body to root Of tail, feet Z
inches; height at shoulder, feet 10
inches; girth behind forelegs, 9 feet 9
inches; circumference of neck, 6 feet;
circumference of muzzle behind nos
trils, 2 feet inches
| Mr. Radford started on the expedi-
ton in February, 1909, with the ex-
press purpose of determining whether
it was identical with the bison that
used to roam the prairies in Yellow
stone park, a thousand miles south, or
! whether it was a distinct subspecies.
Arrived at Edmonton, Alberta, Mr..
Radford remained until June 1 to
study the habits Of the rare animal
/ he was seeking. He had made up his
mind to devote at least year to the
quest. He obtained special permit
from the Canadian government after
4 he had convinced the officials that his
hunt was solely for scientific purposes
The hunter reached the timbere6
country about the. Great Slave river
late in June, and from then until hi
attained his object he was cut of
from civilization. He descended the
Mackenzie river to its delta within the
arctic circle, mapping and exploring
the country as he went He made /
4 long search through the valley Of TIT
river, questioning Indians and making
3 personal observations
The hunt continued without inter
mission from June to the last day O
/. November without success. No gam,
except that actually used for food wa
shot. From June, 1909, to January
1910, Mr.. Radford walked more tina,
200 miles.

WHISKY QUOTATIONS
 REDUCED AT PEORIA

Peoria. H.. April 21.-The quotation committee of the Peoria board of trade in a special meeting today annulled the rul- ing made yesterday which prevented whisky quotations being issued out of Peoria and declared that the basic price of whisky be quoted at $1.ao per gallon out of Peoria today.
 .'The Peoria independent distillers yes terday desired that quotations out of this city cease until such time as 1t could be made uniform throughout the country declared Peter Casey of the Corning Disr tillery company, today. "Advices reached us here this morning that the remaining Independent plants of the country had agreed to meet the trust cut of per cent per gallon and that they would agree to the uniform basic price of sl.@ per gal lon"
 The establishment of two new dstil- leries in Iowa recently is ascribed as the direct cause of the price reduction made by the trust.

A Sad Little Home Is
 Nestled Among Hills

In little miners cottage, prettily paint ed in green and white, sitting in the midst of the little woodland village of Mulga, this morning Is a heart-brolsen mother and her four fatherless babies. She is Mrs. Annie John, the wife of Fore man Morgan John, who Is now supposed to be lying in one of the underground caves of Mulga mines, dead, cold and un- responsive to the pleadings and cries of his loved ones. Four prettier children no mother was eve. proud of than the little tots of the John family. They are Gertrude. aged Il years; Hilda, aged 9 years; Idwa1 Garfield, aged years. and Gladys Maud, only a few months old.
 The John family are welsh. They are born miners and among the mining peo- pie one who loses his life as MT. John is supposed to have done, is a hero and conquerer, a man who has fallen on the field of battle for the daily support of his wife and babies. Yesterday morning the little girls and boys were not playing horse or hide-and-go-seek. Those who were. old enough to know what had hap pened were crying as If their little hearts would break Their papa was gone, he was dead, their mamma was crying and they were too sad to hear the red bird who was sitting in the pine tree in front of their home singing his love song. They did not feel the glory of the sun shine bursting through the trees of the forest surrounding the village, They did not feel the spirit of the springtime. A great, threatening cloud of sadness had settled over their little home and they knew it would be many months before they would again romp and play as they did last Wednesday.

JOHNSTON PLANS
 TO FIGHT TRUST

Washington, April 2L-Senator Johnston of Alabama today informed the Senate that a movement for the importation of Australian beef had been inaugurated in New York as a means of meeting trust prices on fresh meats He said it had been found that the foreign meat could be sold at a rate of cents a pound less than the domestic product The statement was made in connection with speech in opposition to the Lodge resolution ap- yropriating s60.Oo0 for the extension of the cost-of-livins inquiry so as to gather de- tailed retail figures.
 Speaking of the political situation Mir. Johnston said the republican senators should feel greater concern as to whether they would live cheap than as to how Bacon and MT Stone spoke on the polit- ical aspect of the inquiry.
 Senator Clay predicted the inquiry could continue for years and cost s500.00o with out amassing any tangible result. He charged that previous to their appoint nlent several members of the committee lad committed themselves to the view that the tariffs had had no effect on the cost of living. He regarded the members of the committed he said, as jurors to try the case and added he believed they should not have pre-judged the question as they had.
 Tt is a question of facts replied MT. Aldrich. eIs
 u The committee is expected to present the figures and the country will reach It's own conclusion" he continued
 The resolution was about to go to vote when MT. LaFollette presented an amend ment requiring an especial inquiry into the cost of manufacturing articles affected by the raw product. The amendment was accepted by MT. Lodge but new line cf, discussion was developed, and the res olrtion was set aside. . 7 Mir. Lodge gave notice that he would eail it up again tomorrow.

Explosion
 
 being forced. The rescuers are meeting with the greatest difficulty in getting to the bodies because of the debris in the mine. In some cases the headways are Entirely closed by the wreckage and this must be removed before the rescuers can get into the remote sections at all VOLUME OF AIR
 FORCES BACK THE DAMP
 During the afternoon the work of the sescuers was much facilitated by the concentration of all the air compressors h No. 2 shaft. A sufficient volume of nr was obtained to force the deadly after lamp and poisonous gases back through Inc other shaft. thus allowing the willing workers to follow the gas, instead of working through it. as was the case in he early hours of the disaster and which hearly brought death to a number of he volunteers.
 The rescue party was divided into tquads of eight. and under the new conditions each squad could work about bne hour.
 The rescuers report the mine to be in ! bad condition. Timbers were hurled irom their places. the cars were wrecked md the debris blocks the headways. In bome places the roof has fallen and this, with the other conditions, makes he work of the rescuers slow and diffi- bult.
 As they clear away the debries they are building the brattices, that is, the air courses, as they progress so as to have Abundance of air to carry on their work.
 Every now and then they find the body M one of the unfortunate miners whose blackened and broken condition dispels any hope of finding alive any of those occurred. ONLY ONE BODY
 COULD BE IDENTIFIED a.
 At midnight they had brought to the sr-facs six bodies. only one of which pould be identified, that of white man named Bishop.
 The cause of the explosion is still a mat tsr of conjecture, though it was stated last night that the accumulation of dust might have had something to do with it.
 It Is generally conceded that too much praise cannot be bestowed on the magnin- oent work of the rescue party. They have worked unceasingly to reach the dead or dying. During the early hours of the disaster they faced death time and time again in their effort to aid their unfor- tunate fellows. Nearly every man in the marty had been overcome by the deadly rases, and had 1t not been for the splen- Sid facilities of the hospital car Of the Tennessee company and the efficient oper- 4 ation of the first-aid apparatus they would &SNave died like sheep.
