SETTLERS' RIGHTS UPHELD.

The supreme court of the Unit- ed states, in deciding a claim of
 a Colorado company to have re-
 turned to it by the government
 the money which it. paid for coal lands, after the entry of those lands had been cancrlrd by the land office, laid down a rule of
 the largest importance tn all en- trymen upon public lands in the | western states. II is a rule di- rrrtly the reverse of that which
 has been followed by the gcncr- al land office and the Interior department since the time when
 Inc Interior department had al it's i head Jimmie Garfield, complete ly dominated by Clifford pinchot Under the Gariirld-PinchOt ad- miniStraiinn of the public lands il was accepted as rul" that rv-
 public lands under the laws of Congress Was prima faclr a loot rr of the public domain, procrrd-
 ing iu bad faith. and that all the prrSlImpl ion should Dc that he Was trying lo drfraud the gov rrImnrul. IL has been many years since ihr good faith of any land claimant Was recognized and the burden taken by the government to prove fraud in caS"s wh"r" fraud was suspected. The Su- prrme court has now decided that the same rule of law applies to such entries as governs other transactions of life. Those who charge fraud must prove fraud. The burden is not on the claim ant to public land to prove him. self innocent.
 Incidentally, the supreme court decided against another conten- ton of the land office, one first advanced by Garfield, while um- der the Pinchot influence, and followed ever since. This cOntetn- lion was that a person qualified to enter coal lands, could not leg ally enter and pay for such lands if il was his intention tO sell those lands to another person qualified in enter them. The su- prcmr court held that such an entry was moi in violation of law and in no sense fraudulent.
 If lhiS same rule should D" fol- lowed by the supreme court that is, if the tclrgraphic sum- mary of the decision correctly SIalrS position assumed by the rOurl--if would result in drrid- ing considerable number of Alaska coal land cases in favor of claimants whose claims have been canrrlrd by lh" Interior de- partmcnt.

 At both Myrtle avenue and Kossuth street schools, double sessions are held to give all pupils a chance to get instruction. Portable buildings are being rushed to completion to allev- fate this condition.

 The conditions discovered yesterday will be rehearsed in detail at the next regular meeting of the board, when plans for the building work for the fiscal year of 1912-1913 will be laid out. There is a division of opinion among the members as to where the first building work should be done, but it is regarded as likely that the West End conditions will come in for first aid

HIGH SCHOOL
 MAY TAKE ALL
 OF HURD LAND
Special Meeting Of Board Of Education Called For .
 Tonight
Belief Now Prevails That Funds Will Suffice to Buy Hurd House as Well as Back Lot

Having in mind the condemnation of the entire Hurd property instead of the lot to the rear of the Golden Hill street residence, the Board oi Educa ton will meet at a special ses- sion tonight to take up anew the dis, cussiOn of the new High school site in Lyon Terrace.
 The members of the board inspect ed the schools yesterday, and during their visit talked over the high school proposition. The members had been making plans with the idea in mind of a greater expense for the building than may be incurred, and in the dis, cussion of yesterday it became ap- parent that it might not be beyond the S4OO 900 bond issue to buy the entire Hurd property in connection with the purchase of land and construction of the building.
 The instructions already given to City Attorney Pullman call for the condemnation of the land at the rear of the Hurd home. It as planned to leave the Hurd house and lot about 60 feet in Golden Hill street and 150 feet deep, and to take the land run ming from the rear of this plot. through to Congress street. This is a strip approximately 75 by 300.
 Mr Hurd placed a figure of S55, 900 on the house and property. The board offered S7.S75 for the rear strip. It did not make an offer for the entire property, believing MT. Hurds figures too high, and contemplating the con- struction of the High school so as to leave intact the dwelling and a lot 150 feet deep.
 that there was a strong likelihood Of the boards voting to designate the entire property as it's site at the meeting tonight.

GAS" EXPLOSION
 SC0RCHINC TWO.
Plumbers Drenched With Eam- ing Gasoline While at Work in Cramped Space Under
 Floor
Puddle of Water Into Which They Roll Saves Them From Horrible Death-B0th Badly Burned

Cramped within narrow space be- tween the floor of the Grown Corset company at 345 Railroad avenue, Thomas M. Lynch, aged 23, of POS Beach street, and William Atkinson. aged 27, of f09 Central avenue un- derwent a terrible experience when plumbers' torch with which they were working this morning exploded and deluged them with blazing gaso- Iine
 Good luck alone saved them from being roasted alive beneath the fac tory flooring before help could reach them.
 The men were working at broken sewer connection and there was 8 pool of water near them beneath the floor. Atkinson was working at the torch when it exploded, and the fam ing gasoline shot over his shoulder and spurted over Lynch.
 For moment the space beneath the floor was a roaring furnace.
 Roll over," screamed Atkinson to Lynch, and both men wriggled and showed their bodies in the scanty poo, of water, struggling and turning over until their blazing clothes were ex- tinguished. So fierce was the fire that in opening his mouth to shout "Roll over," Atkinson sustained a burn on the tip of his tongue.
 When the two dragged themselves out more QeaQ than alive, and suffer ing tortures from the pain, they were obliged to walk to the Emergency hospital, all the way from the Crown Corset company, without getting an offer of help or assistance from any one. On the way they stopped a bakers cart and asked the driver to give them lift but he said he was too busy" and drove on.
 By the time they reached the Emergency hospital they were suffer ing tOrtures and were near collapse Lynch was the worse burned of the two, sustaining second degree or blister burns over his left hand left arm, chest, left side of his neck and face. Atkinspn's burns were con- fined mainly to his left hand and arm, and some burns on his face and the tip of his tongue. +

LAFOLLETTE
 BEATS TAFT
 AND TEDDY Has at Least 1O,O00 More Votes in North Dakota Than
 BO.h of Them His Plurality Over Roosevelt Will be Between 15,O0O
 ard 2O,0nO
Especial from United Press.

Fargo, N. D., March 20.-Results received from 1,167 precincts of the 1,S00 indicated that LaFollette car ried the state by a plura ity of at least 15,000. These precincts gave him 34,159 and Roosevelt 22,577, LaFol- lette's plurality being 11.2S2. -~ is estimated that the total vote for President Taft will be about 5000. The Republican vote is practically complete in 27 counties. The districts still unreported are the thinly settled rural sections.
 Fargo, N. D., March 2G-Returns from all sections of the state up to 8 o'clock. today, indicate that Sena. tor Robert M. I4aFollette has carried the North Dakota presidential prefer ence primaries by a majority of about 10 900 over Roosevelt and Taft conn bincd. His plurality, it is estimated. will be between 15,000 and 10000. The late returns are bearing out the claims of the LaFollette managers and there seems little proba bility or change from counties not heard from.
 H. N. Tucker, chairman of the ex- ecutive committee of the North Da- kota Progressive Republican League, today, made the following statement Of the result:
 ''The outcome of the election was never in doubt in my mind. I have always had the grea test confidence in the progress of the farmers in North Dakota and I knew they would declare for a man of the wonderful constructive ability of Senator La- Toilette to regain more than the strength he apparently lost during his sickness. It was glorious vic- tory shared by both businessmen and farmers and proves the old adage that right must prevail. LaFollette's majority will be upwards of 15.Oo0''
 John F. Bass, who came to the state to take charge of the Roosevelt cam paign, before leaving for the east, sad, today:
 "The result speaks for itself. If Democrats had stayed out of the Re- publican primary it might have been different.''
 The Fargo Forum, leading Roose- welt newspap per, today, conceded the state to LaFollette by a majority of not more than 5000
 The Grand Forks Times Herald, also tt Roosevelt paper. admits LaFol- lette's victory.
 The LaFollette managers claim that their candidate was especially strong among the farmers and declare that his plurality will grow instead of de- crease as the vote comes in.
 The Fargo News, the chief LaFo1- lette paper, today, gives Roosevelt but four counties on the west slope'' the old COW country, where the former president was rancher in his early days.
 Thomas F. Marshall, of Oakes, the progressive candidate for national committeeman, claims to have been elected over E. c. Cooper, of Fargo. the "Stalwart," by a margin greater than that of LaFollette.
 Little interest attached to the Dem ocratic primaries Governor John Burke, whose name was the only one on the ballot for President, received a very small percentage of the Dem- ocrats. The race for Democratic com mitteeman is close between John Brugger, of Williston and George Duis of Grand Forks.

l Shocking conditions calling for prompt remedial measures were dis closed by an inspection of the public school system by members of the Board of Education, yesterday. Ex-
 pecting to find merely the evidences of the generally known congestion in the various schools. the commission
 CTS encountered other conditions that
 they regarded as still worse. They found many rooms where the light was bad, others where the ven- tilation was poor, and many where the crowding of children has become acute.
 As result of this inspection Of yesterday, many radical departures are expected from the tentative build ing plans of the board. It is likely that the contemplated building in the North End to be set on the lot at North Washington avenue and Com mercial street, will be abandoned for year, and Grand street school will run on.
 Conditions at Grand street are none too good The building is antiquat- ed and the attendance is big. But Grand street is so much better off than other sections of the city that it is not likely the school will be torn down this year.
 Most of the members of the board attended the inspection yesterday. Conditions were found worst of all in the Bostwick avenue school Here the congested population and high birth rate ha- swamped the school Con Gitions were already serious when a Catholic parochial school was not re- opened last fall, and several rooms full of children were turned into the public school
 Portable buildings were resorted to as the last expedient, and then a basement room was opened. Here the commissioners found children ill poor ly lighted and poorly ventilated sur roundings. Myrtle avenue school is so crowded that a portable building is being rushed to completion. Nich- ols street school, one of the oldest in

FAMILY BLOWN
 TO DEATH IN
 GAS EXPLOSION
Eight Lives Lost When Mine Gas Explodes Beneath
 Building
Especial from United Press.)


 Scranton, Pa, March 2o-By an ex- plosion either of gas or dynamite. supposedly gas, in Dunmore, early to- day, eight persons were killed and IS very seriously injured.
 Two buildings were entirely destroy ed and number of others damaged. The list of dead follows:
 Mrs. John Carello: Rose Carello, aged 3: Lucy CarelG T :. Lizzie Ca rello. IA; Dominick Carello, s; Will liam Carello, 20: Mrs. Vito Summa Frank Summa. 4.
 Mamie Summa, 2. is in the State hospital in a very critical condition
 The body of this little girl was found in a tree some distance from the scene of the explosion.
 The i. explosion occurred at 3:30 o'clock in the house of John Carello, Elm street, Dunmore. He was not at home at the time. The Carello fam fly occupied the first floor of the building. The entire family, save the father, was wiped out.
 The second floor was occupied by Mrs. Vito Summa and family. Mrs. Summa and her son are dead. Her daughter, who is in the State hospital, will probably die.
 Detective Rafter, who was early on the scene, and Chief of Police Burke, of Dunmore, declare their belief that a gas explosion caused the disaster.
 Officials Of the Scranton Gas & Wa ter Company say this was impossible as there were no gas connections In the Corello home.
 Surviving members of the Corello family, the father and daughter, Mrs. John Delorenzo, express the be- lief that the place was destroyed by dynamite.
 Corello, absent from home at the time of the explosion, went tempor- arily insane when informed of the wiping out of his family and made a desperate effort to commit suicide.
 After the explosion, cries from the branches of a tree some distance from the scene caused an investigation and the body of the frightfully injured girl was found among the branches. Fol- lowing the explosion, fire broke out, house and the residence of Michael Simone, adjoining. The force of the explosion wrecked a number of build ings in the vicinity, the occupants having narrow escapes.
 The force of the explosion shook Dunmore and reused people from their sleep ities is that a quantity of gas had accumulated under the Cavalla dwell ing Mine workings are close to the surface at this point and it was only few days ago that miners from the Nayaud colliery came to the surface through the cellar of a house nearby. The gas theory seemed to be support ed by the fiickering flames that ap- peared in crevices in the earth near the scene of the explosion. Another theory is that the explosion was caus- ed by someone seeking vengeance.
