Philadelphia. Oct. 25.--At the final session here today of the American Mining Congress res nlutiun was adopted urging the government to pass laws for Alaska which will be more liber- al than those now in force in the territory. A more liberal ad- miniStratiOn of the laws now on lhe statute books was also urged as the departmental red tape is greatly rrtarding Inc dcNrlop- mcnl of Inc mineral wealth of the norlhland.
 The congress also faNuI"s some definite action towards the open ing of the coal lands of Alaska that the people of the Pacific coast cities might have the use of the coal and also that Alaska might become a producer of coal instead of an importer of British Columbia and Australian fuel.
 Delegates from all parts of the continent were present 1nd Ia number of noteworthy addresses were delivered.

MINERS DIE AT
 RESCUE WORK
Two Brave Men Give Up Lives in Trying to Reach Entombed
 Comrades.

Dawson. \. M.. Oct. 25.--TwU of the men who have been work ing day and night on iiftrrn-nlin- ute shifts in an effort to save their rmlonnlIrd comrades at the Sag Canyon mine. were SuifOcat- ed today from the gas fumes coming from the mine.
 All hope for the 3i1 men still known to be in the mine has been abandoned. but the re>cuers are working like Trugans. urged on by the weeping women and chil- dr"n lu rescue husbands and fathers.
 Many women have been at the mouth of the shaft since the first news of the explosion and refuse to leave: they are constantly walking up and down ringing their hands and praying that those they love may yet be say ed Not d single man but has made super human efforts to reach the cntumhcd men and none of them need the urging the women are giving them to con- linur the work.
 Under the direction of the stale mine inspector the shifts for rescue work have been re- duccd to ten minutes. as he fears the effect of the deadly gas which is making it's way through the broken cavin which fills the tun- .nels.
 Late this afternoon the res cuers who have been working in the gas-laden air of the tunnels of the mine, refused to continue their work after they had brought to the surface fifty four bodies of miners who had been suffocated after the explosion.
 The men have been using hel- nets with oXygeh tanks strapped to their backs. but in spite of this precaution two of the rescu- ing party have already lost their lives and the remainder say that all who are in the mine are dead and that it is taking an unneces- sary ri k to enter the mine now only to recover the dead.

 The women of the underworld ply their trade in the cabaretS of the city, causing the ruin of the young men and leading married men astray. is the charge made.
 Wentworth, however, says the chief of police is innocent of wrumguoing. but that the mem- berS of the force make no effort to put down the forces of the un- drrwOrld or the gamblers, who are paying protection money.
