NEWCASTLE, Col. Dec. 1s.-
Thirty men were killed in the Vulcan

Accumulation Of Dust.
The Vulcan mine was onIv about
year old and was equipped with

authority to make reforms in conven-

With little bitterness and no tan
eible evidence that differences which
arose over metho1s could not be rec
onciled. the committee took steps
which have been agitated in the
party FOR thirty years and which have
teen vital factors in many exciting
conventions IN its latter day history.
Without a dissenting vote the COM

roll. Informally Il has been agreed
that the new basis of representation
should be referred to the Republic

REALTY DEAL
DUKE OF BEDFORD SELLS
IMMENSE BLOCK OF LAND
IN CENTER OF LONDON.
Contains Many of Most Promi-
nent Buildings in London and
Income Is Enormous.

LONDON. Dec. 16.-One OF the big
gest private real estate deals on rec
ord was completed to-day in the pur-
chase Of the Duke of Bedford's block
OF freehold property in the center of
London for something over S5O. .O00. 900
by Harry Mallaby-Dveley. a Unionist
member of the house OF commons
The exact figures we're withheld by
the agents. but experts based their
calculations on the cost OF acquiring
the property for the Aldwych
and Kingsway improvement, which
amounted to 500 100000.
The estate covers nineteen acres
and roughly speaking. stretches east
and west from Kingsway TO ST. Mar
tins Lane near Trafalgar Square AMI
north and south from Longacre to the
Strand. II includes the royal opera. .
the Drury Lane. the Aldwych. the
Strand and the Lyceum theaers, sew
eral hotels, Convent Garden market.
Bow Street Police court. the National
Sporting club and a number OF great
printing establishments
The ground has been in the nos.
session of the Bedford family since
~ was tUefn DN
King Henry VIII at the time OF the
dissol .on OF the Roman Catholic re-
ligious communities and the confisca-
tion of their property.
Income is Enormous
Income from the estate in recent
Years is known TO have been greater
than that OF some of the principalities
OF Europe. Covent Garden market
alone brought the Duke $4,000 yearly.
The purchase makes the previous
deals of MIR Mallaby-Deeley pale into
insigniiicance. although in July he ac-
quired the st. Georges hospital site.
opposite Hyde Park. for s.. $50. 900, and
a Piccadilly hotel for S2.jOO.OOO.
