Des Moines, April 26.-Railway Com
missioner Clifford Thorne in an author
lied statement last night announced his
withdrawal from the express rate cases
now pending in federal court over
which there was an apparent conflict
of authority between him and Attorney
General Cosson.
In his statement Commissioner
Thorne said he had had an impression
that the attorney general might find an
abundance of other work to occupy his
attention. There are he said, some
laws in Iowa which have lain dorman
for many years which might well keep
the attorney general busy. and they
are wholly outside the Jurisdiction of
the board of railroad commissioners.
In concluding his statement Mr..
Thorne announced his intention of
turning over all papers in the case to
Attorney General Cosson. The attor-
ney general he said. now has COM
plete control of the cases. I wish him
all possible success. l say this with

When you go to the washstand and
carefully wash your hands with a gen
erous application of soap and hard
brush do not think for an instant that
your hands are clean. The tenacious
microbe refuses to be disturbed and
clings to the flesh throughout the
whole operation. There are some chem
ical compounds which will dislodge
the busy bacilli to certain extent.
but not entirely. According to the in
vestigations of a medical authority Of
the Prussian army, the best results in
the direction of giving the hands a
sanitary cleaning are accomplished by
the use of alcohol. A bath of pure
alcohol will remove about 90 per cent
Of the germs. Where 1t is desired to
clean the hands hygienically 1t is rec
commended that the hands be not first
washed with water. for this will 30
adulterate the alcohol that 1t cannot
accomplish its work as effectively as
otherwise.

Gently gave as an examination Ques-
ton, What is ventilatorT" Besides
the number of answers that were ap-
proximately correct, there were two
which indicated that the students
must have been absent either In body
or mind on the day when the school
room vertilator had been discussed.
The first was, The ventilator lives in
the mountains;" the second, "OOlum-
bus was a great ventilator." When
occasion offered the teacher reminded
his class that attention and application
are requisite for acquiring knowledge
and seriously asked them why any
one should have given an answer such
as the one concerning Columbus. One
OF the best Spokesman In the class
essayed an explanation somewhat as
follows:
columbus brought new ideas back to
the old world; he changed the current
Of thought and opened a great door

The famous hymn beginning God
moves in a mysterious way" known
as "Cowper's Hymn" had its orr
gin as follows: Cowper was all his
life the victim Of melancholia and
more than once attempted suicide.
One day, bent upon destroying himself,
be got into a cab and ordered the
driver to take him to a certain point
on the river where he intended to
drown himself. The cabman, noticing
his strange appearance and feeling
that ali might not be right with him.
drove him about the city and finally
stopped In front Of the poets door.
Stepping out and recognizing the old
familiar surroundings and shocked at
the thought Of his narrow escape.
Cowper exclaimed, God moves In a
mysterious way his wonders to per
form" and. rushing In. Immediately
composed the immortal hymn.

AS PEACEMAKER
4 Suggestion From the lnsur'
reCtOS in Mexico.
THEY WANT A COMMISSION,
Propose Commission Be Made Up OF
Man Named by Diaz, One
Named by lnsurrectos and
Third an American.

FL Paso, Texas.-Peace efforts have
not been dropped by the father of
Francisco !. MaderO, neither is the
aged man discouraged, but on the con
trary, he has confidence in eventful
success The death of his S3-year-old
father, Evaristo Madero, at Monterey,
was a severe blow TO the father OF the
insurrecto-chie and he has not been
active in his peace negotiations, but so
firm are his convictions that he will
have arrangements so far concluded
that he can go to his sons camp in
very few days that he declined to leave
for San Antonio and Monterey, to at
tend his fathers funeral.
The real snag upon which the nego-
tiations now hinge is the demand OF
the insurrectos for a commission 10
carry out the pledges of Diaz. 1t is
understood that Francisco |. Madero
is willing to let Diaz remain in Office
and that the insurrect0s are willing
provided that the reforms which Dia7
has promised to grant are carried out
under the guidance of commission
This commission is to be composed OF
man named by Diaz, man named
by the Maderists and disinterested
outsider.
This outsider the insurrectos have
mentioned as possibly Theodore Roose
welt and possibly President Taft, but
more likely Roosevelt, because the Off
cial position Of Taft would make II
rather indelicate for him to act. The
insurrectos are known to have pro
posed such a commission with one oI
these two men as the chairman oI
third party
This would virtually mean a triple
dictatorship or government head fol
Mexico, with Diaz a mere tigureheat
until the promised reforms are pu
into execution. As the American mem
Der would hold the balance of power
he would practically be the dictator
and reformer of Mexico.
II Limantour and the Diaz cabine
will agree to this, the peace meeting
will be held. AS soon as an answer
on this subject is definitely received
the senior Madero and his party viii
leave for the camp of Presiden
Madero.

SIXTY PERISH IN
BIG NINE FIRE
Four Hundred Men Stampede
in Race With Death.
EXITS SHUT OFF BY FLAMES
Fire at Foot OF Shaft OF Psncoast
CoiIlery, Near Scranton, Pa,
Causes Explosion and Fills
Mine With Smoke.

Scranton, Pa-One Of the most
serious mine disasters which has
ever visited this section OF the min
Ing country occurred at the little vii
lage of Throop, short distance from
this city, when the lives of between
so and so men and boys were snuffed
out.
Among those known TO have
perished are Joseph Evans, who was
In charge OF the United States mine
rescue car; Isaac Dave, fire boss,
and Walter Knight, foreman.
Evans death was the result OF a
defective oxygen-charged armor.
Charles Enzian, the noted expert
In general charge OF mine rescue

was also overcome and is said to be
In a critical condition tonight.
AS rescuers entered the mine they
stumbled over three bodies. One OF
these was Joseph Evans. He was
seen to wrench his helmet from his
head. 1t had evidently failed to
work. Evans was carried to the
open air as quickly as possible, but
he had inhaled so much smoke and
gas from the burning coal that he
died within few hours. Enzian's
experience was similar to that Of
Evans.
Up to a late hour nearly two-score
Of bodies had been piled at the bot
tom OF the shaft, but 1t was thought
advisable not to bring them to the
surface until the crowd had dwin-
died. A temporary mOrgue had been
erected at the opening to the mine,
and here we're congregated hundreds
OF women and children, relatives OF
the men and boys who had been so
suddenly snatched from them. Their
grief was pitiful, children Of tender
years clinging to the skirts of their
mothers, while older male members
of the family sought to soften the
anguish OF the distracted mothers
and sisters of the unfortunate men
and boys.
None of the bodies recovered was
mutilated, death doubtless having
been caused by inhaling flames and
gases
To those familiar with the condi'
tions in the Pancoast Colliery the
finding OF the bodies indicated that
there vas practically no hope for
the other imprisoned miners. A
great majority of the missing men
and boys are foreigners, Foreman
Walter knight and Fire Boss Alfred
Dave being two Americans who are
thought to have perished.
The fire started in an engine house
at the opening of slope leading
from the Diamond vein. $50 feet
from the surface. There were 4OC
men in the mine when the fire start
ed, about co of them in the work
ings into which the slope led. These
60 were at work in blind" tunne
at the end OF the slope.
