DAYS DOING At

EXPENSE FIGURES OF eURERNA-
ToRlAL CANDIDATES MADE
PuBLIc-oTHER NEWS.

Atlanta, Dec. 29.-It appears, con-
trary to the general impression, that
there is no way to compel defeared
candidates in Georgia to tell how
much money they spent on their cana
paigns. The winning candidate is
compelled to file his affidavit, becaase
the Law expressly says he shall not
be declared the nominee unless he
does file it. But for the defeated can
didates, it simply says they too shall
file expense lists. But it doesn't pro-
vide any way to enforce the law, and
it doesn't provide any penalty for its
violation.
These facts have come out in CON
nection with the filing of figures COZ
ering the expenses of the recent guD-
ernatorial candidates, and the candi-
dates for commissioner of labor.
Within the twenty day limit, Joe
Brown filed his, amounting to $4,131;
Judge Russell filed his, amounting to
Y,O69.90, and H. M. Stanley, success
full candidate for commissioner of la
Dor, filed his, amounting to $2,773.50.
But, assuming that the twenty days
had elapsed yesterday morning, Pope
Brown and Joe Mccarthy failed to
send theirs in in time. They simply
forgot Pope Brown filed his-$7, 426-
later yesterday afternoon, and McCar-
thy will probably file his later.

GOV. DIX MAY TAKE HAND

New York, July 16.-Although
the cholera situation at quarantine
is at present regarded by DIR. Alvan
H. Doty, health officer of the port,
as being we'll in hand, last night
he did not conceal his apprehension
that New York is Gin the very midst
Of threatened invasion of cholera"
Further, Dr.. Doty said, "the quar-
antine department of every port in
this country is facing very serious
and onerous task during the sum-
mer," and it is not improbable that
many vessels arriving from Italy IN
the next few weeks will bring one
or more cases of the disease.
Yesterdays official report of the
condition shows there are fifteen
cases in Swinburne Island hospital
and four cases symptomatic OF the
disease. Within the last twenty
four hours one more victim has died.
The steamer Perugia has been de.
tanned and the medical staff is pre-
pairing to make meteorological ex-
aminations of the 24S persons from
the steamer Moltke who are now un-
der observation.
It is possible Governor Dix will be
called upon to take charge at quar-
antine. Charles Dushkind, attorney
for the immigrants whose charges
against DR.. Doty are being investi-
gated by commission, made pub
lie letter he wrote to Judge Bull
ger, of the commission, suggesting
the latter call upon Governor Dix to
assume charge of the health officers
department.
In statement in reply to an in
te1view attributed by a morning
newspaper to Judge Bulger, DR..
Doty reviews the situation and
points to the element of danger. The
statements attributed to Judge Bui-
ser, DR.. Doty says, "are so calculat-
ed to alarm the public in the midst
of threatened invasion of, cholera
that l felt justified in making re-
ply"
"What can DR.. Doty, health offic-
Ell of the port, mean when he allows
five men who have been in daily
contact with persons suffering from
Asiatic cholera to come here in the
same clothes they wore when among
the cholera victims and touch ell
bows with everybody they meet? is
the question propounded by Judge
Bulger in an interview"

A SAUCy BEGGAR
VISITS WEBSTER CITY
Gives Woman a Tongue Lashing-
Public Imposed Upon by
These People.

A beggar with crippled hands wa!
soliciting aid yesterday in the resi-.
dence section of the city. A lady on
West Bank street was sauced by the
fellow because she told him she
had no change. "That is the kind
OF story 1 hear from morning until
night" said the fellow, whereupon
the lady suggested to him that be
might go to the poor house and
avoid such disagreeable stories
This raised the fellows dander and
he gave the lady in question an un-
merciful tongue flashing.
These cripples who make a pusi-
ness of travelling about the country
seldom deserve help. They ought to
be compelled to stay in their OWE
county and be cared for in their
own almshouses-places which are
conducted for the express purpose CT
caring for the unfortunate. When
they travel the people do not only
have to support them, but the pub
lie are at the additional expense of
paying their transportation and the
people are already taxed to pay the
expense OF their own poor houses.
There is no excuse for unfortunate
people going about the country
spending much more money to live
than it would cost the people 20
keep them in their own community.
II the public would quit encourag-
ing this sort of thing by refusing
to give help to this class of beggars
they would stay in their own home
town, where they belong. Every

WERE IN DEATHLY EMBRACE

Dubois, Pa, July 17.-Twenty-
one miners were killed in an explo-
sion in the shaft of the Cascade Coal
and Coke company's mine at Skyes-
VILE. nine miles from here, Satur-
day night. The explosion occurred
at $50 o'clock, but it was after mid
night before the extent Of the dis.
aster was known.
All of the dead but three are for
eigners. The explosion was slight.
as evidenced by the small damage
done in the mine, but the deadly
damp is responsible for most Of the
deaths.
Three sets of brothers and faith
er and son are numbered among the
dead George and John Heck, Nick
Pavelick and his 5-year-old son were
found by the rescuers locked in each
Others arms, as though they enl-
braced each other in their dying mo-
ments. None of the bodies was mu-
tilated and but few showed burns.
Eleven of the men in one heading
had apparently made ready to eS-
cape, for they carried their dinner
pals and were headed for the open
ing. '
The first intimation of the explo-
sion at the surface was when the
safety door on the fan blew open and
the machinery began to run wild.
II was surmised there was trouble
below, but it was almost midnight
when rescuers could enter the mine.
1t took some time to get to the scene
Of the accident, mile and hall
from the opening, because the res
cuers were obliged to carry oxygen
with them.
All but four of the bodies We're
brought to the foot of the shaft yes
terday but We're kept there until all
were recovered. Four bodies were
buried beneath a cave-in in head
ing and were not recovered until
late. The state police from Punxsu-
tawney were called to patrol the vi
cinity of the shaft and when the
bodies were brought out there was
little distress or excitement.
Neither mine officials nor mine in
spectors are able to assign cause for
the explosion as there are no Sur
vivors from which to gain an ex-
PLANTATION, but it is the general be-
lief that some of the men drilled in
to pocket of gas. The shaft IS
known as nongaseous one and Fire
Boss John Brown reports he was
through the heading where the ex-
plosion occurred but an hour before
and found no trace of gas.
Six men working in another head
OF the mine at the time of the accl-
dent knew nothing of the explosion
until the compressed air stopped
their drills and one man was knock
ed from his rock drill. They realiz-
ed something had happened, but did
not know the nature of it until they
met party of rescuers coming for
them. When the rescue car Of the
bureau of mines arrived here the
services were not needed as air in
the mine had been cleared.
