declined the proposition made to
them by the Democrats to appoint
committees from both sides to con.

Democratic leaders, working upon
a plan permitting endorsement of
some of the appointments without
approving all, believe they will reach

EXPL OSION IN COAL NINE
NAY LEAD TO HOLOCAUST

here, this afternoon set fire to the
mine.
Ten bodies are reported to have
been taken out and 125 men are still
in the NINE Rescue parties have been
repeatedly driven back by the flames
Mine superintendents, pit bosses
and fire bosses from five mines in the
vicinity have been organized into res
cue parties. One party penetrated the
mine from the Monongahela river
side and discovered the bodies of two
dead miners, indicating, they reported
that the miners further in had prob
ably been killed.
Efforts were being made late in the
afternoon to force an entrance into the
mine from the Finleyville side, the
entrance through which the men who
escaped made their way in safety.
Until the rescue parties can pene-
trate the gas filled entrances the ex-
tent of the explosion cannot be deter
mined but the gravest fears are felt
for the safety of the men still en-
tombed.

FIVE ARE KILLED
ANO 9 INJURED
IN BUTTE MINE

Butte, Mont. April 23.-Five min
ers were killed and nine injured in an
accident at the old shaft of the Leon
ard mine of the Anaconda Copper COM
pany this morning. Am Peters lost
control of the hosting engine as he
was lowering two cages Of men into
the mine. Both cages dropped to the
sump, one falling 2200 feet and the
other 500 The engine went to pieces
wrecking the engine house and throw
ing pieces of iron and steel hundreds
of feet.
One piece of wreckage struck a
miner, killing him instantly. The 9th
er men killed outright were on the
cage that dropped from the surface.
Their bodies had not been recovered
up to noon. None of the injured, it is
believed, will die.
Peters, the engineer, who stuck to
his post as his engine was wrecked,
collapsed and his condition is serious.
He is unuable to explain the accident
except to say that the engine went to
pieces.
More than 1000 feet of cable fell
on the cage in the west compartment
and it may be many hours before the
four bodies in that cage are recovered

Berlin, April 23-The fall OF
Scutar has caused the gravest anx.
iety in political circles here which
fear that it will ultimately involve the
peace of Europe. 1t is semi-ofIicially
announced today that the capture of
the Turkish fortress cannot in the
Slightest degree alter the decision of
the European powers to incorporate
Scutari in the future state of Albania.
There is, however, little expectation
here that the Montenegrins will with

the unity of the powers will stand the
test of an attempt to oust them forcib-
ly either by means of an international
expedition or by Austria and Italy act
ing as the mandators of Europe.
