BRYAN OUT WITH
 NEW WPEACEPLAN
Secretary of State Succeeds In Having Preliminary Outline of Proposed In ternational A gre em en t Placed Before Senate.
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPATcHl

WASHINGTON, April 23.-Secretary Bryan's preliminary outline of the proposed international agreement fer peace. which was lai1 today before the senate foreign relations commit tee has developed wide differences of opinion.
 Nevertheless it is understood that with the endorsement of the presi- dent. the secretary of state will soon undertake to open negotiations with the leading powers, for such treat ies as his proposal contemplates.
 Briefly Bryan's plan as outlined. IS that the United States make treat ies under which the disputes, even those involving national honor ot vital interests" will be submitted to an international board of inquiry and the disputing countries to agree that they will take no steps whatever to- ward preparations for war within a specified time of six months or one year
 One argument advanced against Bryan's plan at the committee meet ing today was that the United States if she had such a treaty as proposed with one power would be prevented from making preparations to mee the attack of another with which sht | might have no treaty. Some sena
 tors insisted the United States coult not afford to submit 'any question: of national honor or vital interest tt a joint commission for investigation or to refrain for any stated time | from making preparation to defend | itself
 A majority of the committee ex 1 pressed general approval, however. (
 the idea of making some form O l agreements with other countries witt
 a greater development of peaceful I relations.

 ARE RECOVERED
Over Three Score Work men in the Mine Escaped to the Surface Crawling Most of Way on Hands and Knees.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH l


 PITTSBURG, April 23.-The lives of one hundred miners, possibly one hund red and twenty, were snuffed out shortly after noon today when a disas- trous explosion occurred in the Cincin- nati mine of the Monongahela River Consolidated Coal and Coke company at F'inleyville, about 27 miles southeast of this city.
 Over three score workmen in the mine escaped to the surface. crawling most of the way on their hands and knees through deadly gas fumes and over the debris. A number sustained burns.
 Up to eleven o'clock tonight 70 bodies had been recovered. The bodies were located by rescuing squads from the United States bureau of mines, the Mo nongahela River Consolidated Coal and Coke Co, and the Pittsburg Coal company. As the rescuers found a body they were carried to the entries but none however, was brought to the open
 It is stated the victims will be taken from the mine at daylight tomorrow and shipped at once to Monongahela City where they will be prepared for burial
 The rescue work was hampered by the after damp. The fire which fol- lowed the explosion has been com pleteIy subdued, it is said.
 The rescue work was carried on with difficulty owing to fire and deadly gases Several hours after the expio- sion. seven foreign miners crawled from one of the entrances to the mine. All were seriously burned. They could give no connected account of the con- ditiohs of the mine or the individual experiences.
 All they said was 'the mine is full of dead people,.
 The business of Finleyville was sus- pended and practically the entire com munity rushed to the ill-fated mine.
 A guard was placed at the pits mouth and all except the rescuers and mine officials were held at a distance

Ne,r- orinqs Joy

LONDON, April 23-News of the fall of Scutari to the MontenSrins S arms has been received with extra ordinary demonstrations of joy in all the capitals of the allies, es- pecially at Belgrade. The Bulgarian premier sent effusive congratulations to the Montengrn premier.
 The first effect of the fall of the fortress has been the extension of the international naval blockade to DurazZo.
 It is understood the Russian diplo- mats prefer to leave the initiative to France and great Britain and it is believed that neither will countenace any form of coercion with respect to Montenegro. Russia herself can not countenace coercion without straning to breaking point the patience of her Slavophile ruling class
 No serious hitch in the peace ne gOtiationS is expected.
