Benjamin R. Tillman, senior senator
from South Carolina, is critically III

The senator s right side is almost
wholly paralyzed and aphasia has de.
veloped as result of cerebral hemor,
rhage on the left side of the brain. He
has nearly lost the power of articula.
ton, which is regarded as the most Sc.
rious symptom. He may recover from
the paralysis, but it is said he prob.
ably never will regain complete use Of
his speech. This is Senator Tillman q
second stroke of paralysis. The first
occurred nearly two years ago, when
he suffered nervous breakdown.
Favorable indications showed them
selves Monday in the condition of SEN
ator Tillman. The initial symptoms
which caused partial loss of speech have
abated and Improvement has com
menced, according to bulletin issued
late during the day.

For Mine Bureau.

The national organization of the
American Mining congress is urging
the United States congress to the
speedy enactment of bill for the ere.
alton of bureau of mines in the de.
partment of the interior.
The reasons why the bureau should
be established are given at length in
the regular monthly report of the min
ing congress for February and are
briefly as follows:
1. Mining is great national indus
try. 2. The losses in the mining and
treatment of ores are enormous. 3.
The waste of the mineral production
of the United States is estimated at
100000 daily. The coal loss is 2OOf
100000 tons annually 4. Low-grade
ores must now be used, as BONANZA
mining is thing of the past. 5. HUI
man life in the mines must be pro.
tected. 6. Investigation and steps
toward the elimination of these condi-
lions could be better handled by the
bureau than by the private companies
and calls for the highest scientific and
technical skill.
The matter is now in the hands Of
congress and mining men are watch
ing the developments closely.
