On the authority of decision OF the
Court of Appeals. counsel contenoed thdt
the present board of Commissioners Was
entitled TO review of testimony ana lHd-

remove the relator.
To the contention advanced by the re-
lator that the power of removal was not
vested in the Commissioners, but in the
Supreme Court of the District of Coium-
bia, it was argued that the organic act
of 1878 specifically vested in the Com
missioners the authority to remove Of
fcials: that the only effect Of the act of
1899 was to limit the absolute and gen
eTal power of removal to remove on
three grounds. to-Wlt neglect Of duty. in
efficiency and malfeasance III office, but
so long as Congress had not in specific
terms diVesIed the Commissioners of that
power that the power to remove is still
vested in them. both by virtue Of the
organic act and by reason of the fact
that il has been repeatedly decided that
the power Of removal is incident TO the
power o. appointment and unless such
power nf removal is taken away in eX-

APPALLED, BY MINE ACCIDENTS
Hundred and Twelve Persons Killed
in West Virginia IN Four Months

CHARLESTON, w. Va. November II
Ono death and three non-fatal accidents
each working day is the record OF the
coal mines of West Virginia for the four
months ending October 81. Appalled, by
the accident report. Chief Earl Henry Of
the state mining department yesterday
issued statement calling attention to
the mining laws and their proper enforce
mcnt In the four months ending Octo-
Der - there We're IL fatal accidents
and $50 non-fatal accidents
II is asserted the mine accidents in this
state are more numerous than those in
the major of coai-producing states Chief
Henry declares the laws are sufficient for
full protection, but he has found that
miners take uncailed-for risks in en-
deavoring to increase their incomes He
advises that signs carrying the mining
laws be placed in all mines. 1t is stated
the number of accidents for 1913 viii be
distressingly large. although there have
been few mine disasters.
