WILSON SOON TO CHOOSE
RESERVE BOARD NOMINEE
President Anxious to Get New Bank
ing System in Work
ing Order.

President Wilson was today WORKING
to reach a conclusion as to some man
for the federal reserve board. and hoped
to be able to send in a nomination this
afternoon or tomorrow. The uncertainty
whether Paul NJ. Warburg would come
here and appease the Senate committee
on banking and currency by appearing be-
fore it to submit to inquiry. leaves the
President doubtful whether to send IN
more than one name at this time.
The President. in view of the imam
cial crisis abroad and threatening to
extend to the United States, is greatiy
concerned about getting g federal re-
serve board organized and the new
law nut into actual effect. He has taken
personal command of the financial sit
uation to some extent. and feels that
the putting into effect of the new
banking and currency law will serve
as a protection against troubles IN this
country.
Edwin A. Potter in Favor.
With ony one nomination to be made
the President will pick Chicago man
to go on the board in place of Thomas
D. JONES' and the nominee will most
likely be republican. Edwin A Pot
ter, a republican of Chicago. who has
had both banking and business ex-
perience. and to fill the Presidents idea
as to getting a business man. Is today
regarded as having the best chance OF
going on tho board. The President has
talked with Charles r. Crane of Chi
cago. his personal friend, as to the ma
terial in Chicago available for service
on the board. and is receiving sugges-
tions from other friends there.

formal Conferences.

the United States had extended an
invitation to representative of the
Mexican constitutionalists to meet
the American and Huerta delegates
to the mediation conference for an
informal discussion of peace propos-
ais.
That the United States had for
some time been exerting strong in.
fluence to bring the constitutionalist
leaders into the mediation confer,
once upon such basis, one that would
not involve an armistice in the cam
paign against the Huerta government

Seceders From Western Federation of
Miners Reject Peace overtures
From President Meyer and Select
Temporary Officers.

Butte, Mont-Seceders from the
Western Federation of Miners launch
ed an independent miners union on
Sunday, rejecting peace overtures
from President Charles F. Meyer and
his assistants. They elected as tenn
porary president M Mcdonald.
There is little hope of compromis-
ing the two factions and with the ia
sues sharply defined, breach is ex-
pected within few days Federal Of
ficials threaten to import miners to
fulfill the contracts with the operat-
ing companies.
The mass meeting Sunday was at
tended by 5000 miners. All voting
was done by reclamation, the officers
addressing the assembly through me-
gaphones. The report Of the execu-
tive committee, in whose hands had
been left the drafting of the insur-
gents policy, was adopted without
change. 1t provided for the eventual
formation of a permanent organiza-
ton. Temporary headquarters will be
established and an assessment of 90
cents per month levied.
No official notice was taken of tia
Western Federation and President
Meyer had no one present to offer a
compromise. Unoffcially it was de-
elared that the seceders' reason for
not accepting advances from the fed
Grafton officials was determined op
position to the national as we'll as To-
cal officers and a strong desire not
to be affiliated with any national or
ganization.
The Western Federation has the
power by its contract with the mine
owners to say who may be lowered
into the mines and the federation s
agent at the mines has the power to
order the engineer not to lower any
of the seeeders into the workings. I'm.
der the contract between the fedora
tion and the mine owners, the feder-
alton, if it has not enough men in
Butte to work the mines, must fur
nish them from the outside.

RENDER DECISION
AGAINST RAILWAYS
SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN
OPINION IN INTERMouNTAIN
RATE CASE.
UPhoIds the Orders of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, Deciding
That the Long and Short Haul
Clause is Constitutional.

Washington.-The interstate com
merce commissions so-called inter
mountain rate orders were sustained
as valid on Monday by the supreme
court, which held at the same time
that the long and short haul clause
Of the interstate commerce law was
constitutional. Both had been at
tackled by the transcontinental rail-
roads.
The defunet commerce court, pass
ing over the constitutional question,
had annulIed the orders on the ground
that the commissioners had no au-
thority to issue blanket" or zone"
orders and might act only on the rea-
sonableness of specific rates.
In overturning that contention and
holding that the commission did
have such power, the supreme court
decided point which lawyers and
close observers of the interstate COM
merce commissions procedure say is
of equal Importance to the intermoun-
tain rate case itself-if not greater.
Opposition to the per cent in
crease in freight rates being asked
by the eastern railroads-and upon
which the interstate commerce com
mission is expected to announce its
decision at any day-has been based
principally upon the contention that
the commission did not have author
ity under the law to grant such a
blanket increase"
Copies of the courts decision were
sent Immediately to the commission
for its guidance.
What the effect-if any-of the de-
cision upon the rate case may be,
can only be the subject of conjecture.
There are those among the well-in.
formed in the commissions proceed
ure, however. who say the decision in
the disposition of the railroads ap-
plication has been delayed awaiting
the supreme courts decision on that
important point.

HUNDREDS KILLED
BY GAS EXPLOSION
TERRIFIC EXPLOSION IN COAL
MINE IN ALBERTA BRINGS
SORROW TO MANY HOMES.
OF the $50 Men Who Were at Work
in Mines, Only Fourteen Have
Been Rescued Alive, Despite
Efforts Of Rescuers.

Lethbridge, Alberta.-A terrific ex-
plosion, coming without warning. on
Friday entombed 250 miners employed
in mine No. 20 of the Hillcrest Collier
les, Ltd. OF the fifty rescued only
fourteen were living. Despite efforts
OF the two score mine experts laboring
amid the poisonous gases and debris
hope of rescuing alive the 200 men yet
in the mine, hope has been abandoned.
The explosion, which occurred about
9 o'clock Friday morning. shook the
country side for miles, lifted the roofs
from many miners cabins and demol-
ished numerous small buildings A
moment after the explosion a score of
panic-stricken surface workers rushed
from the mine, followed by a dense
cloud of smoke and poisonous fumes.
Appeals for help were dispatched to
many towns, and in the meantime re-
sidents organized an emergency crew
and turned feeble and ineffective
hands toward the work of rescue.
When the first rescue crew arrived,
large force of men set about to
clear the shaft Thousands or tons
of rock have fallen into the mine and
1t is feared that the men, even had
they escaped death from the poisonous
fumes, probably were crushed to death
by the falling debris.
No information as to what caused
the explosion has been obtained, but 1t
is believed it was due to the forming
oof gases.

cording to the ideas set forth in the

added, land optimistic, which I have
always been. While regard the diff.

of mediators always to find way to
overcome them SO peace may be, ac.
