ticket. Then he sent for the sweet.
heart and together they began the
task of making a home" ].
The results of their strict econ
omies was the purchase Of little
house built of adobe and worth per-
haps 5000. This house, however,
spelt wealth to the poor immigrant
and his wife, who rejoiced that their
three babies would be American
and free.
That is one of the tragedies and
blasted romances of life that are
left behind by the disaster in which
55 lives were lost.
1t Is one of the stories that will
NOT go into the next report of
President Welborn to his stockhold-
ers. That document will NOT tell
how suggestion was made that q
huge air shaft be sunk into the tun-
nels in which this explosion &C.
Cured, and how the estimate of
$4,000 seemed too much to spend,
too much to subtract from the pile
of dollars in the treasury.
Neither will the report show what
was saved to the company by fail
ure to sprinkle those dust laden
chambers, as required by the state
law.
The explosion, it is admitted by
the officials, was due to a collection
of dust in the various chambers. It
is also admitted that the only
sprinkling done in the mine was for
the purpose Of keeping the paths
used by mules in hauling the small
cars hard enough for them to travel.
There was no effort to spray the
walls or to comply with that provis.
ion of the law which says that
water shall be used "copiously."
The stockholders will spend their
extra half million Mrs. Cysz, with
her three babes, her broken heart
and the wreck of her hopes, knows
how that half million was made.
So will Mrs. Joe Baronski, who
stood with her four children, hour
after hour, waiting for some word
from the rescue parties that went
into the mines. Beside her man
for whom she pleaded and prayed in
an hysteria of grief, a brother was
also among the victims. She can
appreciate how the half million was
made.
And the wife of Joe Lubranski
she, too, can well appreciate how
the extra half million was made
Joe came to America four years ago
1t took all that time for him to
scrape together enough to send for
bis wife and four little children
They came four months ago. Now
the are alone in strange land.
These are the tragedies behind
the dividends.

Especial to The Press)

TRINIDID, Col, Oct. 1S.-Six
months ago G. F. Welborn, presi-
dent of the Colorado Fuel G. Iron
Co., issued his statement of the
finances of that concern for the
year. 1t was the first year Of oper-
alton under the regime Of John D.
Rockefeller, the oil king.
That statement showed that the
profits had increased a half million
over the year before. 1t showed
that there had been smaller out
put but bigger dividends. 1t must
have been highly satisfactory to the
Standard Oil magnates, but
Had that statement shown an in
creased profit of only $4,000 In
stead of the even half million, and
had the extra $4,000 been used to
sink a shaft in the company's Stark
vile mine near here, Mrs. John
Cysz would not have rushed to her
home on October 9, secured a re-
volver and attempted to kill her
there small children.
Mrs. Cysz is one of the 80 widows
thrust into the role of bread win.
ners as a result of the dreadful ex-
plosion in the Rockefeller mine
Her grief and desperation were
symbolical of the wave of sorrow
that came with the tragedy.
In an instant she saw the results
of years of waiting, of toiling and
OF sacrifice swept away with the
life of the man whom she had fol.
lowed across the seas.
She saw the menace of hunger
above her there babes. She saw the
wreck of the home for which she
had sacrificed so much.
And seeing these things, her rea
son fled and only the chance inter
ference of friends prevented her
from killing her children.
Eight years ago John Cysz left
Poland for America. Behind him
was the sweetheart who waited un.
til he should win fortune in the land
of opportunities. 1t took three years
of hard work at meyer wages before
he had saved the price of steerage
