Explosion.
FAMILIES ARE STARVING
Pitiful Scenes Enacted at Mouth of
Death Trap As Dead Bodies Arc
Brought to Surface-Few May Yet
BE Alive.

Briceville, Tenn, Dec. 11.-All
hopes of saving any of the one hum
dred and twenty-five miners buried
in the workings of the Cross Noun
tain mine which was destroyed Satur-
day. have been abandoned. Eighteen
bodies have been recovered.
Government rescuers say there is
no chance for any of them to live in
the blackdamp. The bodies can be
seen. but it is impossible to reach
them. 1t will be days before the
corpses are removed.
An investigation is under way to
determine whether negligence caused
the disaster.
A government rescue crew is work
ing two miles in the mine.
Many miners families now face
starvation. The average wage of the
victims was $35 monthly. Pitiful
scenes are enacted at the shaft mouth
by the bereaved families.
More conservative estimates place
the death at eighty-nine.
Dr. Holmes head of the bureau of
mines, arrived here today. and took
charge of the rescue work.
DIR. Holmes, after hurried investi-
cation, said there was a possibility
that a few men in the far mine re-
cesses were alive. 1t is believed by
many that $50 are in the shafts.

M'NAMARAS DON STRIPES,
BRIBERY CASE UNDER WAY
FRANKLIN GIVEN
PRELIMINARY HEARING
Prospective Juror Tells. Of
Offer For a Hung
Jury

Los Angeles. Dec 11.-With the
McNamaras in San Quentin prison, in
terest today is centering in the hear
ing of Bert Franklin, before Justice
Young on a cnarge OF bribery of Mrs
Bain, wife of juror and George
Lockwood, a prospective Juror The
Lockwood matter is the one that the
prosecution intends to press.
White was the first witness. He
said Franklin, in making a dicker
with him, said he wanted White to
become custodian of S350O to pay
Lockwood in the event of acquittal or
disagreement of the Mcnamara
jury.
He said it would be safe for me
because they already had accepted
two jurors who'd vote right" White
testified.
Lockwood testified he was approach
ed by Franklin before his name was
drawn as a juror, and was offered
$4,000 which he refused.
Later he told District Attorney
Fredericks of the transaction and on
Fredericks' suggestion he went
through with the deal when Franklin
raised the offer to $500.
! He said Franklin said he would
have to see Clarence Darrow before
completing the arrangements. Later
! they met and Franklin said he meant
| Captain White and not Darrow.
| Fredericks today denied that he
would prosecute Darrow for bribery,
saying he had no evidence. Darrow
again denied that he knew of the
/ briberies.
Lockwood continued, saying that
Franklin told him that they had
reached the time of life where money
counted much, and he assured him
that everything was safe and that the
defense would provide a sufficient
number of reasons to make a Juror
doubt the other testimony.
When luncheon recess was taken,
; Juror Balm and his wife remained t.
testify. They were needed to show
Franklin's criminal intent, as the
status of the Lockwood case is not le-
gally as strong as the prosecution
might want.

In a brief but hearty response the

CANN0T-ADD FIFTH
WARD SAYS CARTER
Political Phase Appears to
Move for Addition
al Ward
Former City Attorney Declares Char
ter Change Necessary First-Would
Give Outgoing Mayor appointment.

Power to increase the number OF
wards in the city is not vested in the
council and it viii not be possible for
the number of wards to be increased
regularly adopted by the voters of
Pendleton
This is the substance of the views
of Charles II. Carter, well known local
lawyer and former city attorney as
expressed in an interview with the
East Oregonian today. According to
Mr.. Carter, the charter of the city
specifically prescribes that the city
shall be divided into four wards.
Therefore no fifth ward may be cre-
ated except by charter amendment.
The council Is authorized though to
alter the boundaries of the wards and
such alterations may be made by or
dinance if the council so desires.
When asked for his opinion as to
the power OF the city to increase the
number of wards, City Attorney Ra-
ley declined to give an opinion ow-
ing to the fact that he had not fully
investigated the matter. He is look
ing into the matter now and may
make his views known tomorrow.
of Political Import.
In local political circles no little
interest has been aroused in the SUBJ
ject of ward changes, owing to the
possible political aspects of tie move.
There are supporters of Mayorelect
Matlock who say they can see in the
move a possible scheme to pack the
new council against the man who will
take the re ms of government on jan
uary L These men point out that
Mayor Murphy opposed Mr.. Matock
in the recent election and they do not
like the idea OF having tN \ addition
al councilmen named by the outgo-
ing mayor. If there are to be new
councilmen they assert they should
be named by the new mayor and not
by the old.
However, II the view of Mr.. Carter.
who by the way was city under the
former Matlock regime, is correct,
there will be no new councilmen un-
til the people by their votes establish
an additional ward.
