FOUR KILLED IN UTAH MINES
Second Cave-in Kills Imprisoned
Men Like Rats.

Bingham, Utah - Four men were
killed and three seriously injured in
the copper mines at Bingham Thurs
day. Three of the killed were crushed
to death beneath a pile of rock and
earth in cave-in at the Jordan mine
of the United States Mining COM
pany's properties early in the morning
and one was killed at the United
States mine when he fell rs feet down
a shaft and broke his neck.
The cave-in at the Jordan mine oc-
Cured as Night Foreman Thomas and
Shift Boss squires, accompanied by
two miners were leaving the deserted
stope. Thomas escaped injury, but
Squires and the miners were caught
behind wall of rock and earth.
For while Squires communicated
with the rescuing party through wall
of rock. A pipe was inserted through
the fall to give the men more air.
Immediately the crash of a second
cave-in was heard and communication
with the .entombed men was lost. II
is believed they were killed by the
second fall of rock.
The rock slide at the Highland Boy
mine occurred at almost the same
time as the cave-in at the Jordan mine.

FOR SPECIAL ARBITRATION
Taft Believes Canal Tolls Issue Not
a Hague Matter.

Washington, d. C.-Although Presi-
dent Taft is willing to submit to arbi-
tration the issues between Great Brit
ain and the United States over the
Panama canal tolls, he does not favor
such procedure by The Hague tribunal.
Although he has not given the subject
of tribunal much thought, the presi-
dent probably would prefer special
board of arbitration composed of an
equal number of citizens Of the United
States and Great Britain.
The president has expressed to
friends the view that all The Hague
tribunal would be against this nation.
and that the moral pressure on the
court would be enormous, because
Europe is interested in Panama. In a
court in which only Great Britain and
the United States were represented, it
is argued, there would be. much
greater chance Of fair decision.
Several Democratic senators have
voiced the opinion that special tri-
bunal should be created to arbitrate
this dispute.

OIL OUTPUT SHOWS BIG LOSS
Increased Demand Has Buoyant
Effect on Petroleum Prices.

Washington, D. G. - With the
worlds consumption of oil aggregating
100000 barrels day, Of which the
United States supplied almost two
thirds, production of petroleum in this
country in 1912 was 220, 100000 A.
gallon barrels, or about $50, 900 bar
rels less than 1911. While the pro-
duction was less, the rising price of
oil increased the total value of the
product markedly. Last year the out
put was valued at $3.50, 900, 900, an in
crease of about SIG, 900, 900 over 1911.
According to David T. Day, of the
United States Geological Survey, the
Eastern oil fields, as rule declined
production because it was impossible
to keep up with the great output of
1911 without large additional discov-
cries of pools in the older fields. The
Eastern decline, however, was Offset by
the increase in California.

Representative Tilsen, of Connecticut
providing for a national military re-

"The reservist should receive Two W.,

said General Wood, "and when calieu

equivalent to So for each montn ne

would give the reservist something 70

''The necessity for providing re-

end of that period with certificatlon

By way of contrast with the United
States, which has no reserves, General
Wood enumerated the reserves in the
following countries:

State Control Opposed.

Lincoln, Neb. ~ Governor Aldrich,
Nebraska's retiring executive, in his
message to the legislature, declared
that state ownership of water-power
development was as impracticable as
public ownership of the railroads.
The governor declared that 'sregula-
ton which insures good service at just
and equitable rates" is preferable to
state ownership, and anything more
than this would be contrary to public
policy and result in preventing the de-
velopment of capital.

Washington, ID. C.-Presldent Taft,
in a special message to congress
Thursday, recommended the repeal of
the act of congress which prohibited
for five years the killing of fur seals
on the Pribyloff islands, passed more
than year ago. Investigation, the
president said, showed remarkable
increase in the size of the herd in one
season, and proved conclusively that
only the female seals and the bull male
seals needed protection, and that
thousands of stbachelor" seals can be
killed yearly without reducing the herd.

FINANCES NEAR
DANGER POINT
Control in Bad Hands Would
Mean Ruin to Country.
F1nancier Admits Money Is Much
Concentrated and Thinks Mat
ter Has Gone Far Enough.

Washington, D. C.-That the pres
ent concentration of money and
credit "has gone far enough, y
that Sin bad hands it would have a
bad effect upon the nation, that the
safety of the situation lies in the per-
sonnet of the men in control and that
present conditions are mot entirely
comfortable for the country" were a
few of the statements made by George
+. Baker, master Of finance, as the
climax of two days examination before
the house money trust committee.
Mr.. Baker declared that "bad hands
could not retain control"
These statements, coming at the end
of day of routine examination, dur
ing which Mr.. Baker reviewed in de-
tail the operations of himself, his
bank, the First National Bank of New
York and ]. P. Morgan & Co., in the
issuance of bonds, startled the COM
mittee and Mr.. Bakers counsel.
Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the
committee, was wading through a
mass of heavy statistics relating to
bond issues handled by Mr.. Bakers
associates. Suddenly he paused,
leaned forward in his chair and shot a
question at the 73-year-old t1nancier.
''Mr. Baker, I suppose you do not
think there is a money trust?" de-
manded the lawyer.
Committee, spectators and counsel
sat forward in their chairs. The wit
ness leaned back in his chair, smiled
quietly and replied:

"What do you understand by a mon
ey trust?" Mr.. Untermyer continued.
81 give it up; 1 don't know" said
Mr.. Baker, with a chuckle.
Suppose we define money trust
as an established identity or commun-
ity of interests between a few leaders
of finance which has been created and
is held together through stock hold
ings, interlocking directorates and
other forms of domination over banks,
trust companies, railroads, public serv-
ice and industrial corporations ano
which has resulted in vast and grow.

"Well, there is great amount Of
money that has come together here

Mr.. Baker after pause.
"There have been great mergers Of
financial institutions, have there not?'
asked Untermyer.

omnibus of Paris took place Saturday
when the last of the lines was sup

hicle was to start on its final journey,
great crowd gathered and with mock

the virtues and past glories of the
ramshackle conveyance round the
sides.
A line of new automobile omnibuses
were drawn up round the square and
the motormen of these modern vehicles
sat with their caps in their hands and
played the lugubrious fanfare on their
horns as the driver of the horse omni-
bus drove off on his final run.
