Visit Unexpected

Minister Naon came to Washington
unexpectedly today from New Haven
and Cambridge, where he had been
attending the Yale and Harvard Com
mencement exercises. He lunched with
Secretary Bryan and later went to
the state department for long con-
ference with the secretary. No mixing
as to what had passed between the
minister and the secretary of state
was to be had.
After his talk with the minister
Secretary Bryan reiterated his belief
that mediation was progressing sat-
isfactorily.'
II maintain hope for two reasons
he said. 1.-The fact is that l am in the
position of knowing more than you
and the second is that 1 see no rea-
son for changing my attitude. When

pose to extend the activities of the

Two Minor Events

New London, CT, June 19.-By the
narrow margin of four inches. Yale
won the Varsity four-mile crew race
on the Thames river here late this
afternoon, after struggle which will
stand out in rowing history when the
competing oarsmen are mythical he
roes of forgotten decade. Through a
long four-nlile lane of steam yachts
and motor boats, the Is crewmen toiled
at the Crimson and Blue tipped oars
as no galley slave ever labored under
the lash. while thousands of specta-
tors on shore and observation trains
shrieked with the falsetto note that
comes with fear or hysteria. And
when the knife-like prows of the rae
ing shells had cut past the final line
of flags and the oarsmen dropped with
CHASTITY distorted faces, heaving chests
and sweat dimmed eyes, few of the
perched upon the bow of Yale or the
Harvard racing craft.

Waterville Me. June 19.-(SpeciaD.-
Official notice was received from Wash
ington Friday announcing the nomination
of Charles NJ Richardson as postmaster
of the city of Waterville to succeed Per
ham S. Head, whose term expired the
first of June Mr.. Richardson's appoint
ment comes as the result of close con-
tsntion with Leroy Jones, who now holds
one of the important positions in the Of
flee. 1t is probable that the newly APP
pointed postmaster will assume charge
about June 80, the expiration of the fiscal
year.
Mr.. Richardson was born in Thomaston
Dec 5. 1873, one OF the nine sons OF cap
tain Peter and Annie f. Richardson. He
received his education in the Rockland
public schools and then became interest
ed in the cigar manufacturing business

what is now known as Richardson
Smoke Shop on Main street He also
conducts a cigar manufacturing business
in conjunction with this, and his efforts
have always been crowned with success
He began a public career as member OF
the city council that eVehtuahy leu "
his election as sheriff of Kennebec coun-
ty under Governor Plaisted who is now
himself a postmaster. During his three
years in the council Mr.. Richardson put
in one of them as president. Later he
was appointed city marshal. a position
he filled creditably for year. His next
step up the political ladder was his eiec-
ton as sheriff, an office from which he
was retired at the beginning of the pres
emf Haines administration. Mr. Richard
son has been equally prominent In ira
ternal circles. He has been a past grand

II ARE HURT
AS CARS CRASH
IN RHODE ISLAND
Several Seriously
Injured by the
Collision

Providence, r. l., June 19.-Twenty-
two persons were injured, several of
them seriously when a Providence and
Brockton street freight car, and a
Providence and Taunton passenger
car came together in a head-on COLI
sion in the woods a quarter of a mile
west of Rehoboth village tonight. The
big freight car tore a quarter way
through the wooden box passenger car.
Both cars were going at a fast clip
and there was no chance for the mo-
torman on either to slow down before
the crash.
Though officials of the company
were unwilling to make any statement
tonight. 1t is believed that the freight
car overran a switch
William Greene of Taunton, motor
man on the Providence bound passen-
ger car, was among the seriously hurt.
When the freight car came booming
around the curve almost upon him,
Greene Owed out one side of his YES
Thule, while Charles Sutton of East
Providence, a passenger, who was
standing on the front platform, went
out the other side. Greene wound
around a trolley pole alongside the
track and had four ribs broken. Sutton
landed head-first in a sandbank and
was not seriously hurt.
The passengers inside the box car
had no warning of the approach of
the freight car until the crash. The
more seriously injured were seated at
the front end of the car, but all were
thrown over and under seats, or
against windows.
The other seriously injured are:
Hazel Williams, 6, Berlin, n. j.,
probably skull fracture and fractured
collar bone.
Peter F. Kelley, Providence, r. l.,
right leg fractured.
Walter Webb, Brockton, messenger
on the freight car, head and face
bruised and cut.
James Pendergast. Brockton, right
hand crushed.

Dear Sir:
In reply to your letter of June 14th.
] wish to state some things in regard
to the expenditure of money for high
way purposes. The resolution which
was passed by your Grange, which
stated
In view of the fact that the State
Highway Commission, as now eonsti-
tuted, does not have q member rep
,resentative Of the Grange, and by its
action in voting to construct type
iof boulevard road at a cost which
.makes the total mileage of highway
ito be obtained from the 100000 bond
Issue authorized by the people of the
State exceedingly small, and the bulk
of which is, apparently, TO be built
lin Cumberland county"
is entirely wrong, upon the PROPOSE
Ition that the bulk" is TO be built in
Cumberland county. ! notice by your
letter that you did not favor this res
tolution. and that you would like to
have me speak at your next meeting.
(which occurs on August 9Th at East
Hebron. I also notice that this reso-
nution has been forwarded to every
Pomona Grange in the State with
request that they adopt IT. also no
tice that Mr.. Sam Conner states that
the greater part of the roads were TO
be constructed in Cumberland county
Where anyone gets any authority for
such false statements is beyond me-
as, there Is absolutely no foundation
for il. and l do not want to wait I'M
til August s to correct these state
Iments. The facts are as follows:
The present Highway Commission
has made, and is proposing to make
contracts for building State highways
in every county in the State. These
State highways are to be built from
the proceeds of the bond issue-and
the bonds are to be paid. both prlncl-
pal and interest, by special taxes, call
ed license fees, on automobiles. The
State aid roads are to be built as here
itofore by Joint contributions from the

Effect of Disaster
he effects of the disaster were:

The effects of the disaster were:
Men in mine when explosion occur
red 600, of whom $50 escaped.
Number rescued So Of whom So died
later
Miners still entombed 200. probably
killed by fire, which followed the ex-
plosion.
At dusk a group of women stood at
the mouth of the mine which had been
closed by the explosion, still hopeful
that the cries for help that issued from
the inner workings earlier in the day
might be repeated, indicating that
those beneath still were alive. Later.
however, many of the women dis
persed, expressing the general feeling
that the situation of those imprisoned
was hopeless.
The explosion, which occurred about
A. NJ, shook the countryside for miles
around. lifted the roofs from many min
ers' cabins and demolished numerous
small buildings. A moment after the ex-
plosion score of panic-stricken surface
workers rushed from the mine, followed
by a dense cloud of smoke and poinonous
fumes.
Appeals for Aid
Appeals for help were dispatched to
many towns and in the meantime resi-
dents organized an emergency crew and
began the work of rescue.
When the first rescue crew arrived this
afternoon large force of men set about
to clear the shaft, working desperately
as the means Of the entombed men came
feebly from the mine The means became
fainter and finally ceased. Thousands of
tons of rocks have fallen into the mine
and it 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
given, but it is believed it was due TO the
forming of gases. Thomas Quigley, SUI
perintendent of the mine, is among those
entombed.
Rescuers Arrive
Early tonight two trains filled with ex-
pert mine workers, doctors, nurses and
officials of railways arrived at the scene
and the work of rescue was begun in
systematic way.
The explosions tore out both ends OF
the pit and blocked up the interior of
the workings, making 1t almost impos-
sible to gain entrance Most of the min
ers were working about 100 feet inside
the mine.
