Portertield announced today that in
case the juror is still missing tonight
he will discharge the rest of the jury

Despite the efforts of every police
detective in Kansas City and the at
tempts of many amateur sleuths to
locate Waldron or obtain some clew
to his present location, absolutely no
trace of the missing man has been
found. A close watch has been kept
on his home for it is the general
opinion that Waldron climbed the
transom in order to visit his family
Of whom he was passionately fond
but Mrs. Waldron said this morning
she had heard nothing from her hus
band and the police watching the
Waldron home report that the missing

Even if Waldron is found and he
cannot satisfactorily account for his

SHERMAN LAW
AND POLITICS
Alexander II. RevelI Doe. Not Believe
Steel Trust Should be
Prosecuted.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
CHICAGO, Dec 12.-Acidutous crit
icism of the "use of the Sherman law
for political ends" and utilization of
that statue to bolster up regulations
for supposed champions of the peo-
pie" was voiced by Alexander H.
Revell, of Chicago, before the Nation
a! Business congress.
Folks in Washington were right
when they went after the Standard
Oil and tobacco trusts Revell de-
clared, "but they are wrong when they
sued the steel corporation. The lat
ter Is one OF those combinations made
necessary under the exigencies of 1.-THE
present day conditions in the indus
trial world. The trouble is now that
the Sherman law is being used as a
political issue. We want to divorce
business from politics."
Reyell advocated a federal commits.
sion to regulate corporations and de-
clared that there should be heavy
penalties and even prison sentences
for those found guilty of bona fide
violation of the Sherman law.
Continuing his denunciation Of the
present policy towards the trusts,
Revell said: Republican officials at
Washington are running amuck and
the business interests of the country
are paralyzed with apprehension lest
the hand that fostered and protected
them In the past shall strike them
down In the future. The present trust
busting policy at Washington lacks
discretion. business discernment and
common sense. It lacks the support
Of real republicans. 1t looks like a
superabundance of legal, and a dearth
OF practical intelligence"

THIRTY DEAD BODIES
Hope Has Revived in Briceville But
corpses Are still Being Found
as the Search Con-
tlnues.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l
BRICEVILLE, Tenn, Dec. H.
With five men rescued from living
tomb in the Cross Mountain mine of
the Knoxville Iron and Coal Company.
and rappings heard in another part of
the mine, indicating that others sur
vive, hope has revived in Braceville
today. Government rescuers today es-
innate there are twenty-five to thir-
ty men still alive in the mine.
1t is certain, however, the death
night OF the five living men followed a
few minutes after the recovery of if
teen dead men. Seven more were re-
covered this morning. bringing the to-
tai up to thirty.
The rescued men had been in the
mine 61h hours. They had only the
meagre lunches taken in with them
Saturday to eat, To assuage their
thirst they were compelled to drink
the putrid water in the mule trenches.
The rescued men were carried hons
in wagons that during the day had
been used as hearses Several cs
them were too weak to stand.
There were originally seven in tho
party Thomas Henderson, and his
son Milton; Irwin Smith, Arthur Scott
Dori Irish, John Duff and Arthur
Smith. Saturday night a disagree.
ment as to what they should do arose.
Duff and Arthur smith decided to try
4 and fight their way out They haye
not been seen since,
The men were working in 'old man
! lrish's entry when the explosion
came. They found Irish unconscious,
| crushed and bleeding They dragged
him and the other injured ones into
! the entry and built a barricade of
| timbers and coal across to keep out
! the flames, heat and gases Irish died
and there were seven living and one
dead man behind the barricade.
/ There in the dark they waited for
the rescue they hoped would come.
Monday the five who remained after
\ Duff and Arthur Smith left, opened
the barricade and found that the air
was fresh and decided to venture
forth.
They wandered for several hours
until Milton Henderson, who was in
| the lead, heard the shouts of the res
cuers headed by DR.. j. A. Holmes,
: chief of the U. s. Bureau of Mines.
The five men had become lost and
were headed away from the mine n
trance. AS they went they made
cross marks with chalk on the walls
: of the drifts. Holmes had seen the
marks and instantly realized what
. they meant.
: Milton Henderson was found and he
led the rescuers to the spot where the
others were huddled, too exhausted to
go further.
: The miners charge today that the
disaster attributed to coal dust ex-
plosion, would not have occurred if
there had been an efficient system OF
inspection and sprinkling. The mine
employed one inspector 1t was his
duty to visit every foot in the mine
daily This they say was physical
impossibility for one man, as he
would have to cover fifteen miles of
passageway in three hours 1t woulu
take six men working all the time to
properly inspect the mine, miners as
sert.
They say the mine entry was kept
damp all the time. But the mules and
: water cars could not get into these

hair or hair that is falling out, Is not
necessarily sign OF advancing age, for
there are thousands Of elderly people
with perfect heads Of hair without

When gray hairs come, or when the
hair seems to be lifeless or dead, sorle
good, reliable hair-rcstoripg treatment
should be resorted to at once. Spcciil-
lists say that one OF the best prepare
