INQUIRY INTO
 LIBERTE HORROR CAUSE or DISASTER TO FRENCH BATTLEsHiP syrII-L A
 MYSTERY Number of Victims Now Placed at 235 Dead and 16o Wounded
 Fires On Other Vessels

| Toulon, France, Sept. 26--The lat
 est official estimate places the num- lber of victims of the Liberte dis
 aster as 235 dead and 160 wounded,
 10 dangerously.
 1 It is believed this estimate is near lthe correct figures as it is the result
 of an exhaustive examination. Many lof the bodies taken from the wreck
 were unrecognizable. Not few of
 the victims had been literally seat
 tered to the winds.
 Work of searching the hulk con
 tinues, but even with perfect appli-
 ances the explorers cannot penetrate
 some parts of the ship. so inextri- cably is the wreckage twisted and tangled. Those whose cries were heard last night either have been taken out or died. The last man rescued alive was in turret with 15 dead bodies. Food was passed to the prisoner through a small open- ling. When he emerged he did not seem to be very much the worse for his experience. s4 A heated controversy is raging as Ito the cause of the disaster. The theory of the deflagration of the ''B" powder is the one generally ac- Icepted by the public. but the naval |officers declare that to have been impossible, the greatest precautions having been taken since that type of
 powder first came under suspicion after the blowing up of the lena. Nevertheless Vice Admiral Bellue Issued an order to all ships under his company command that in view of Ithe uncertainty of the cause of the Iexplosion on the Liberte they land without delay all powders served out to them before 1902. as well as all Idrill ammunition.
 Sinister rumors are current to the effect that the disaster was the re- |
 suit of sabotage, Attention was been drawn to the fact that the Icatastrophe followed soon after the violent manifesto of revolutionary
 workmen in the Brest Arsenal
 1t is even said the authorities have
 taken cognizance of the rumors and have ordered a secfnt inu,lirv into the matter.
 A blue jacket who Is in position Ito know. declares fire broke out aboard not only on the Patrie. but lanoiiher ship of the squadron not long after that on the Liberte. but they were discovered and extinguished The newspapers here report sev- erai small outbreaks aboard the war ships at intervals of two or three |days.

MINISTER'S ADOPT MINIMUM WAGE.

At convention in this city of Mime
apolis Baptists, resolution was adopted
establishing the minimum wage OF an
unmarried minister at $500 per year and
that OF a married ministers at 5000 per
year. While 1t has been popular in the
past to criticise the organizations OF la
Dor for establishing wage scales, 1t ap-
pears that the labor unions have imita-
tors 1t Is to be hoped that the Baptist
Ministers union will be successful in es-
tablishing its minimum wage without
friction. The Baptist Ministers union is
not confronted with the open shop ques-
tion, as all of the Baptist ministers are
members of the Baptist Ministers union
The men of labor extend their moral
sympathy to the Baptist Ministers union
in its effort to procure a living wage.
