MANY KILLED IN. EXPLOSION
BODIES OF MANY OF THE VIC
TINS HAVE BEEN RE-
COVERED.
Those Who Escaped crawled on
Their Hands and Knees Out OF
the Deadly Fumes.

Pittsburg, Pa.-The lives Of 100
miners, possibly more, paid the toll
of disastrous explosion in the Gin
cinanti mine of the Monongahela Riv'
er Consolidated Coal and Coke com
pany at Finleyville, Pa.
Over three-score of WOrkmen in the
mine made thrilling escapes, crawling
most of the time on their hands and
knees through deadly gas fumes and
over debris.
Many bodies were located by rescu-
ing squads of the United States bureau
of mines, the Monongahela River Con-
solidated Coal and Coke company and
of the Pittsburg Coal company. AS
the rescuers found bodies they were
carried to the entries.
The rescue work was hampered by
afterdamp. Fire which followed the
explosion has been completely sub
dued Three entries of the mine are
entirely choked with debris.
The force of the explosion was ter
rife. A fifteen-ton motor was turned
over. Many feet of mine track were
twisted and ripped from the ties.
Only few of the miners who reach
ed the surface could talk. Suffering
from burns or fright, the miners only
knew that an explosion had occurred,
and that the large number of men are
either killed by the explosion or as
phyxiated by the afterdamp.

TO FIGHT OVER THE SPOlLS
Greece and Bulgaria Rapidly Drifting
to War.

London, Observation-Disclosures and
Greece are rapidly drifting towards
war over the possession of Saloniki,
The Greeks have modified every
available soldier and concentrated one
army in the neighborhood of Saloniki
while another is being landed at Or
FAM, in the Gulf of Orfani, to watch
movements of Bulgarians at Drama
and Kavala. The victorious Epirus
army from Janina is being distributed
along the new strategical front from
Saloniki to Orfani.
In the meantime the Bulgarians
have suspended passenger traffic be-
tween Dedeagatch and Saloniki and
are utilizing the railway for concen-
tration of troops in the neighborhood
of Drama close to the Greek position.
They have now brought one division
each from Adrianople, Tchatlja and
Bulair, and it is estimated that the
Bulgars now have 10000 soldiers fac
ing the Greeks and a Servian force,
supporting the Greeks, which is as
sembling along the railway

FOR BETTER ARMY
GARRISON PLEADS
URGES THE ASSEMBLY OF BRIG
AIDES AND DIVISIONS PERL
ODlCALLY.
CHANGES RECOMMENDED
Secretary Says There Are Too Many
Posts, and Not the Proper Train
ing for War.

WaShingtOn.-In statement Secre
tary Garrison, pointing to the Ameri
can army scattered in small units
throughout the country, impossible to
coalescence for practical instruction
in the larger tactical measures of bat
tie, urged the Importance of assem-
bling brigades and divisions periodi
cally and temporarily IN times OF
peace for war training, pending the
adoption of governmental policy for
the adequate distribution of the army.
Epitomizing his idea, the secretary
said:
Il hope that war may never come,
but in the present stage of civilian
ton we must recognize the POSSIBLE
ity; and it is with this idea in mind
that I say I believe it will be we'll
for the country, if our legislators
would make provision for the annual
assembling of at least one division
as a school, wherein our officers
might be given that practical train
ing which is so necessary to develop
educated generals and staff officers.
We may not need a large army, but
it should be one which in organiza-
ton and training is as nearly perfect
as it is possible to make it. Otherwise,
whatever is spent is not bringing its
full efficient return. And this applies
to thought, skill and training, as we'll
as to money"
Discussing the question of future
military policy for the United States,
Secretary Garrison said it seemed to
be agreed that there we're entirely
too many army posts at the present
time, and that many of them were not
where they were useful or desirable
under existing conditions:
whether this situation should be
remedied," he continued, "by ccncen-
trating the army into a few quiet, large
posts or into only as many as would
permit a regiment at least to be quar-
tered in each, have not as yet formed
any definite conclusion in my own
mind. Much may be said effectively
upon each side of this question. hope,
when | get the time, to give this mat
ter my most earnest consideration,
with a desire to reach a conclusion
that is best for the army, which, Of
course, will be that which is best for
the country"

proceed to Sacramento to cooperate
with Governor Johnson and the mem
bers of the California legislature in
framing law regarding the ownership
of land by aliens that would not con-

United States, particularly with Japan.
Il am going in the hope that we may
be able to find the best solution of the
difficulty" said Secretary Bryan to
the press. Il feel sure that they in
California will enter upon work with
the same spirit of cooperation as the
president and I do. I am hopeful, in
deed, that we will be able to arrive
at the wisest solution

Mayor Woodward was roundly ap-
