COAL MINER HAD
LUCKY ESCAPE
TONS OF COAL FELL ON HOWELL
PRICE WITHOUT INJURY BE-
YoND BRUISED HAND.

Although coal in sufficient bulk to
resist the efforts of his two assis'
tants in removing it, fell upon him
covering his lower body and one hand,
Howell Price sustained but a painful
injury to his right hand, and is again
at work. The accident occurred Sat
urday at the Trio mine, better known
as the old Roseland mine, which Mr..
Price with two other men operate
under a lease. While working in the
mine Saturday in company with his
partners and their employees, the fall
of coal took place. He had noticed
the loose coal and deferred pulling it
down and it fell upon him, covering
both his legs and one hand. His fel'
low miners came to his assistance as
soon as possible but were unable for
a time to remove the great weight OF
the coal. Mr.. Price is congratulating
himself on his good fortune in escap,
ing severe injury or possible death,
but is unable to account for the fail
ure of the immense weight to break
his legs. Not even were any of the
bones of the hand broken, but the
right hand has been badly swollen
and very painful since the accident
He returned to work today as usual.

WAS AMBASSADOR
BRYCE RECALLED?
His Departure and Publication
of Confidential Letters Give
Rise to Rumors.

LONDON, May. 3.~-Ambassador Bryce's
departure from the United States by way
OF San Francisco so soon after the publica-
ton ofs President Taft's confidential let
ter to Colonel Roosevelt saying reciprocity
would make Canada only an adjunct Of
the United States has given rise to the
report TINT Mr.. Bryce has been recalled.
Mr.. Bryce's active interest In promoting
the reciprocity agreement is declared
TO have made his further services ut
Washington impossible.
The London Evening News quotes a
speech which Mr.. Bryce made in Mon.
treal four years ago, in which he said
Every day I feel | I'M even more the
ambassador of Canada at Washington
than of Great Britain Three-quarters of
my time is occupied with Canadian af-
fsira"
me Evening News adds; Mo- only.
however, has Canada rejected the fiscal
policy that Bryce prepared for her with
the Laurier government and Mr.. Taft.
but she has been awakened by Mr.. Taft's
own blunt words to the immense danger
that she was running OF losing her own
natsonhood. Canada. therefore. must have
another ambassador at washington
The latter sentence is italicized by the
Evening News.
The Chronicle today says; THE hap.

and Foreign Minister Grey. Mr.. Bryce
enjoys the full and unreseryed confidence
of the British government. His career at
Washington has been the greatest success
In our aDbassadoriai service for twenty
years. His departure from Washington
will be deeply regretted by the foreign Of
ficials.
A prominent official of the foreign
office told The Star correspondent to-
night; Mr.. Bryce has got to leave In
the ordinary course to visit Australia.
The foreign Office has no knowledge Of
his resignation
Nevertheless there Is n widespread i'm.
preston here that Mr.. Bryce knew before
he left Washington Of President Taft's
intention to make public that letter and
that under the circumstances it will be
impossible for him TO return To WASH
ington as Representative of the Cana
dian government.
