Brought TO Surface.

DAWSON, New Mexico, oct. "a
Two rescuers, James Laird and Allan
Bose, lost their lives in an effort to
save possible survivors entombed in
the Stag Cannon coal mine. The men
were overcome by the poisonous
gases, brought to the surface and eff
forts made to revive them but they
failed to respond
Conditions are growing worse and
no hope is held out for the large num-
Der of miners imprisoned
Despite all efforts to ventilate the
tunnel the air is foul and thick with
coal dust. threatening a fresh explos-
ion momentarily.
The officials of the mine today es-
innate the dead at $50. including Bose
and Laird. But 26 of the miners have
been rescued
Practically all hope of saving the
entombed men was abandoned at
dawn although the rescuers continued
al their task. Forty two corpses have
been brought to the surface.
The bodies thus far recovered will
be buried as soon as enough coffins
have been secured
The corpses were in a mangled con-
dition. showing that the explosion in
the mine must have been a violent
one. Nearly all of them are burned
beyond recognition and Identification
is possibly only by means of their
shoes and caps. Two Italians had the
tops of their heads torn off by the
blast
The interior of the mine was badly
wrecked The weakening of timbers
threatened a fall of rock and this
added greatly to the perils of the res
cue work.

clared. in a speech before the Tammany

he could not understand. He declared
that had farmers seen foreign vessels
in the great lakes waiting for prices to
rise before they would transport grain,
they would favor the passage of such a
bill.
In speaking of the value Of merchant
vessels as agents of peace and instru-
ments of war, and of the good that would
result to the Panama Canal from the
passage of a ship subsidy bill. Repre-

THE construction OF the Panama Canal
Is rapidly approaching completion. and
1t will largely fail of its purpose unless
the adoption of this provision and a
closer attention to the growing needs Of
the nation brings forcibly home to Us
the lesson that friendly intercourse be-

more easily secured through the flying
OF the American flag from messengers
Of peace in the form of merchant steam
