ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl

BINGHAM, Jan. At the risk of their own lives, relays of miners are working frantiCaily tonight to reach two. and possibly three, comrades who were entOmbed by cavein early to- day on the deserted slope of the United States Mining company's cop per mine. The body of one of the and earth, has been taken from the debris
 At the Utah Consolidated Mining companys workings five Austrians are suffering from injuries received in a similar accident. Two sustained broken legs and one is internally in jured. The latter's condition is seri- ous, but it is hoped that all will re- cover. Although it is thought that only three were caught by the cavein. it is possible that four may have been entombed in the United States mines, as another Greek miner was not to be accounted for. When the rescuers first reached the cavein they eX- changed signals with the entombed miners, but these signals suddenly ceased after the rescuerS heard a rum ble within the slope. It is feared they were crushed beneath the second fall of rock. One of the men is an Ameri i can shift boss; the others are Greeks. The mines. which are four miles up the canyon. are cut off from wire communication.

BANKERS SHOW

All Witnesses Before Bank ing and Currency Com

ASSOCIATED PRFss pIsPArcnl

WASHINGTON. Jan. That some thing is radically wrong with the American monetary system was agreed to today ty all witnesses before the house subcommittee on banking and currency, which began it's hearings to aid in devising a new currency scheme. but the witnesses were not agreed as to how a more elastic currency and more concentration of reserve funds can be obtained.
 A Barton Hepburn. chairman of the board of directors of the Chase Ma tional bank of New York advocated a central bank, with 51 per cent of the stock held by the government. if necessary. Hepburn, speaking of gov ernment control of banks, sad the best article on this subject he had read was The New Freedom. by Woodrow Wilson, in which the president elect opposed the Jeffersonian doctrine that the less d country is governed the better.
 We will have panics IS long as human nature exists" said Hepburn.
 Victor MOraWetz, director of the financial affairs of the Atchison, To- peka & Santa -Fe railway, proposed a system of regional reserve banks in which the power of issuing currency be limited He told the committee that the banking system under which the United States had prospered SC
 wonderfully could not be wholly had and urged caution in changing the 1 banking and currency laws.
 Paul Warburg of the banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co, of New York insisted that central reserve or ganization, differing materially from central bank, was the only feasible remedy Hepburn and Warburg viz orously denounced the government guarantee on bank deposits idea. Chairman Glass said that inasmucf as the democratic platform declared specifically against monetary com
 missions and a central bank, ma jority of the members of the commit tee felt 1t their duty to seeil a substi- 1 ute plan.

Flood for Washinuton.

SEATTLE. Jan. 7.-The United States weather service issued flood warning today to dwellers in the low lands of western Washington, pointing out that melting mountain snows must cause an overflowing of the rivers al ready swelled to the danger point. The rain fell all day in the lower attitudes of western Washington. with soft snow in the mountains.
 The Great Northern railway. whose mountain division has been tied up for several days, was unable to clear the track on the western slope be- cause of successive landslideS A slide
 today covered five men and one was
 killed. The Milwaukee and the North ern Pacific were crippled today by the
 storm and trains are running irregu- larly.
 Reports from Green. White and
 Stuck rivers. in King county, indicate that the farmers living near those streams are preparing for a great in rush of flood water. At Everett the Snohomish river. swollen by the melt ing snOwS, is rising rapidly and the farmers have moved all portable prop erty back from the banks. The same condition prevails along the Skasit, the largest river in western Washing | ton. and the Puyallup, Chehalis and Cowlitz rivers. High water in the | Cowlitz would interfere with the op- eration of the single railway between Puget sound and Portland. which is used by three companies.

From Riverside to Los An geles According to State ment from Fruit Center, Every Acre Citrus Land
 Is Frozen.
LOSS MAY BE
 FORTY MILLION
New Menace Is In Danger of Rapidly Rising Tenn perature Which Would Destroy Little Remaining Marketable Fruit.
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1sPArcHI

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 7.--'FTom Riverside to Los Angeles every acre oh the orange and lemon groves has beer frozen" This is the statement the came tonight from Pomona, almost tn '. center of the citrus fruit region Only o1e-fifth of the crop will probably be salvaged, it was also asserted. If this is true, the total loss will amount riose to $400000OO.
 Probably $5.OO0,0OO of this amount will represent the loss to the railroads in the curtailed freight receipts. In the face of this disheartening situa- tion the fruit growers, worn out by their 4S hours battle against an al- most unprecedented visitation of frost, received a warning to get out the smudging pots again tonight in istless frame of mind. With the warning, the weather bureau issued q bulletin stating that the crest of the cold wave had passed. But even this prediction of warmer weather brought with il an element of apprehensiye uncertainty. According to the grow CTS. the sudden return to normal win ter conditions will irreparably dam age the fruit that may have been left in such condition that a gradual ris- ing temperature would leave it in a marketable shape.
 This additional loss will practically mean the complete ruin of the citrus crop the value of which has been con- servatively estimated at $50,000, 900. Growers estimate the cost of fighting the frost the last two days and nigit at more than $50O,000. Growers and representatives of the fruit buying and shipping interests reported that an inspection of the citrus country showed great devastation. Managers of the orange groves centering around Pomona held a meeting today and a1- bounced that no fruit which showed any signs of having been frozen will je permitted in the packing houses which prepare the oranges and lemons for shipment to the market.

jury last Monday. after being out
only a few hours, having return

first degree.
The case has attracted consid-

account of its unusual features
but because M. Frank, and uncle

Frank lived here for a short time
in the early eighties, having been

There was considerable preju-
