tinps
THE COMMERCIAL CLUB.

1t is known 10 the public of Salt Lake
City that the Commercial Club is urgent
ly in need or financial help. 1t has been
| printed that at a meeting Of the stock.
holders recently, a resolution WAS passed
asking for the publication OF leading
facts in connection with the financial
| affairs of the club, and also asking vol
untary contributions from the members
that will wipe out ''the handicap OF
debt that is drag TO our feet, " as the
Clubs managers express it. And so n
circular Of information and appeal has
been published and Is out. Under this
resolution, members are asked 20 pay
according to their ability, sums during
the year, ranging from $3.50 down to
S25. 1t is reckoned from present indica-
tions that the average payments will
exceed $50 This on the basis OF 1000
members, would yield $4,000 to the
Club, sufficient to wipe out a floating
debt of something over $4,000, which
is now burden that the Club finds
heavy to carry. 1t is explained that If
all accounts due on June 30th should
be paid in cash. the Club would still
need S55,S16.96 to square its books
The means whereby the club finances
for the future are to be assured
and security is to be effected, are,
first, the payments on the voluntary
contribution plan. as stated. The re-
organizing needed, as stated, Is in re-
quiriDg; first change in the present
system which delays financial settle.
ment and costs more than 1t is worth;
second, a cash payment system, which
would eliminate largely the cost Of
bookkeeping, and all the delay in OBJ
tanning cash due and financial settle
ment; third, a radiual change in the
cafe department, which has involved
serious loss every month; fourth, a
further reduction In other costs, which
is expected to save $3.50 per month after
August lst; fifth, a general reorganiza-
tion which will eliminate the loss on
the cafe and which will bring the loss
there represented on the books to the
balanced sheet,
An appeal is made from the club to
have the members support the reforms
indicated, so that the club will be free
to devote It's whole power to club work,
and to the worthy accomplishment that
the club Ia expected and is prepared to
render TO the city and the State. if it
can once be freed from the incubus Of
debt and bad methods OF fnanciering.
The Tribune Is heartily disposed to
support the efforts of the managers of
the CLUB to lift it out of the depression
into which 1t has fallen. There is not
citizen Of Salt Lake who would not
be disappointed and dishcartened if the
Commercial Club should cease its eff
cient activities for the upbuilding Of
business and for advancing the progress
of this community. 1t is not, in fact,
and cannot be, question Of letting go.
The club has got to be relieved and con-
tinued in its good work It is simply
question of the best means of achiev
ing that end The means adopted by
the stockholders at their recent meeting
are the means that are now being
pushed, and The Tribune recommends
to the business men Of Salt Lake City
their whole hearted cooperation in that

Fou, hundred and eighteen miners
We're entombed to-day when an ex-
plosion set fire to the Universal col
liery causing the worst disaster Of its
kind Wales ever mas known.
Eight hours after the flames broke
out the men still were prisoners in
the burning colliery, and hope had
been abandoned for their deHverance.
Surrounding the flaming pit mouth,
in a valley walled in by mountains,
were the frantic families Of the i'm
prisoned men held back by hundreds
Of constabIes. on the mountain tops
We're thousands of others watching the
ragic scene below them.
When the blast occurred. repre-
sentatives Of the Lewis Merthyr Con
solidated Colliery Company, owners
Of the mine, said that the day shift
of 700 men were i'm the pit.
So violent was the detouation that

Shortly after 8 o'clock, not long
after the day shift had gone down
into the pit. the blast occurred Car
diff tremb"d from the shock, fire
followed the explosion and smoke
rolled from the mouth Of the mine
rescue squad was formed and
started into the mine after the
flames had died down They reported
that the shaft gearing had been de-

the fms and the interior of the pit
were blown asmder, cutting off the
supply Of fresh air Other pumps
were rigged up however, to furnish
fresh air and blow out the poisonous
fumes.
Soon the work of carrying out the
survivors began. Many Of them were
unconscious Some had their cloth
ing blown off.
Families Of the miners rushed to
the mouth Of the pit, frantic in their
greif and anxiety and determined TO
sacrifice their own nvos, if necessary
in an attempt to save their loved
