ICE ON GUARD AS MIL STRIKE ENDS
Women Saue Children IN Fire
Find Man Overcome
By Gas; Accident,
Declare Friends

Physicians worked hard Thursday to
save the life of John Kerr, aged so
years, one of the oldest boilermakers
at the Southern Railway shops, who
was overcome by gas in his room at Al
Hendricks avenue. His condition was
discovered early Thursday morning
when the escaping gas was noted by
other people in the house. He is still
in an unconscious condition.
The near asphyxiation is believed by
members of the family of John w
Davis, with whom he resided. to be an
accident and not an attempt at suicide.
Jesse Davis, son Of John w. Davis,
awoke at 5 o'clock Thursday morning
and detected the odor of gas. An in
vestigation revealed 1t coming from the
room occupied by Kerr. Other mem
bers of the family were aroused and
the door to the room forced open. when
the gas jet was found to be partly open
while Kerr was found lying unconscious
in the bed
Mr.. Kerr is one of the oldest en-
ployees at the Southern shops. He has
lived with the Davis family a long
while with his wife, who is now in New
York on a visit. She has been notified
of his condition.

New Buffalo Nickel
Is Not Counterfeit;
Design Only Changed

People who take the new nickeIs need
have no fear of being buffaloed, for
the Indian on the buffalo nickel is an
honest Injun."
This announcement was made by a
local banker to reassure his friends
who thought they had been swindled
by counterfeit scent pieces of a new
Wild West pattern. A new die has
been adopted at the Philadelphia mint,
different from the one which the Denver
mint uses.
The difference between the two dies
is chiefly in the supporting mound be-
meath the buffalo. The original nickels
at that spot have a large area OF earth.
giving so large an animal the support
that it requires. On the side of the
mound on the old nickels in raised let
tiers are Five Cents" and 90"
In the new design the ridge under
the buffalos feet is narrow, giving him
the appearance of dancing on a tight
rope.

weeks before the trial began.
Before the hearing was well under

there We're a number of affidavits
which he had not yet obtained, but

With the review of the defenses

almost certain that the fight on the

The defense, to support their con

had more than a score of affidavits
to submit from reputable and promi

Monroe, who swore that they had
heard Henslee before the trial bitter

Friends OF the convicted factory

there was more than enough weight

Dorsey Full Of Fight.
Solicitor Dorsey went into the
hearing Thursday prepared to CON
cede nothing and determined to fight
every inch of the way against the
accusations of bias and prejudice.
He was fortified with affidavits from
Henslee and Johenning testifying to
their own lack of bias when the trial
started and with affidavits from
other members of the jury who swore
that during the 29 days of the trial
they never heard Henslee or Johen-

hundreds of other employees to join
the strikers and the mutterings of
some of the very radical agitators
that violence was likely had changed

Rescuers Battle to Save Men
Caught by ExpIosion-26
Found Alive.

DAWSON, n. M, Oct. 23.-Battling
against deadly gas fumes that rose
out of a cavern in the earth, a score
of rescuers delved into shaft No. ?
of the Stag Canon mines to-day
where over 200 miners were entombed
behind hundreds of feet of debris. More
than 500 other rescuers stood back
from the mine shaft ready to be low
cred into the shaft as soon as the
active workers were fatigued. Back
Of them more than 1000 women aged
men and children were grouped about.
watching, praying, listening for word
thar some of their loved ones had
been found alive
A terrific explosion AT 8 O'Clock yes
terday afternoon had caught ESQ men
under the earth and imprisoned them
behind a solid wall of earth. Black
damp which had collected below the
upper level was blamed by the mine
officials in their report to the owners.
the Phelps Dodge Conranv. of New
York. Five men were found 100 feet
below the entrance to the shaft. They
were alive, but they were unable to
tell their story when they We're lifted
into the cage. Later, when they hae
been revived, there was none to lister
to their tale so intent were the soc
rescuers in their efforts to bring out
the remaining 275 men several hun
bred feet below the upuer level
Two hours after the five were found
alive the first dead We're found. Dur
ing the night fourteen dead and %
injured were taken from the mine.
In the all might fight with debris the
rescuers penetrated to the fourteenth
level, ahort mile into the side of
Black Mountain ard they were yet
far from tine remaining victims.
The rescued were picked UP along
the levels in ones and two and could
only point the way onward into the
depths for the rescuers.
Hone For 3e~cue.
The hope that at least most OF the
men We're still alive was neld out by
the Government mine rescue workers
who were rushed here early to-day on
special train from Trinidad Colo.
There was little gas in the work
ings that could be reached by the
halr % .
explosion had nearly cleared by day
light Danger Of fire in the under
ground passages was believed to be
small, and The only fear entertained
by the rescuecs was that the men had
been caught in the falling walls OF
the mine or crushed to death by the
shattered timbers. II they could hold
out against starvation and lack OF
water until the men could tunnel
through hundreds of feet of debris,
It was believed that all, or nearly all,
would be found alive.
\ pathetic scene about the mine en-
trance was revealed by the dawn.
Mothers, sisters, sweethearts and
children were kept back by a special
guard. Nearly crazed by the fear
that fathers, brothers sons were dead
or dying deep in the earth, several in
the crowd that had watched and
waited all night long, made frantic
efforts to break through the line
They were gently restrained by tired |
men who had been taking turns at
digging in the mine shaft and guard
ing the rescuers, and led TO the back
of the eagerly watching crowd, where
comforting words Of encouragement
and hope were spoken to them.
