MINERS DRILL
 INTO QUICKSAND
 AND SEVEN DIE
Behind Wall of Rock Was
 Sand Which Flooded Entire Mine.

Alpha, Mich., July 15.-Seven min- CTS in the Balkan mine lost their lives today when their drill went through a rock wall into a bed of quicksand, flooding the chamber in which they were working. Six others narrowly escaped, running to the main drift before the quicksand, like a stream, could overwhelm them.
 The company which owns the mine is working desperately to recover tue bodies, but it will probably be- a month before the mine can be suffi- ciently pumped out. as the rush of water and sand nearly filled tho mine. The men who perished were foreigners.
 They were 132 feet under ground, drilling into a wall of apparently solid rock. The drills without warning went through into cave of quicksand and those who perished had no chance for their lives.
 The six who escaped, heard the screams of their comrades and fled, the water reaching their knees before they could get out of danger.

Only one hose was stretched and the blaze was soon extinguished after the arrival of the laddies.

Powers to Take q Hand.

Washington, July 15-American troops, with marines from the British, German and other foreign warships at Vera Cruz, will be rushed to Mexico City to protect the capital from the footing and rioting that threatens the abdication of Huerta, the moment such step becomes necessary.
 It became known today definitely, though it was not officially confirmed, that Huerta's object in repairing the railroad between Vera Cruz and Mexi- co City, was not for the purpose of getting himself and his family to safety, but to get the American and other forces into the capital to pre- serve order and to protect the city froom the excesses of the victorious constitutionalists. The call for these troops will come from Carbajal when the situation becomes threatening.
 It remains to be seen whether the abdication of Huerta and the trans fer of authority to Carbajal will bring order out of chaoos and result in a termination of the civil war in the Mexican republic.
 There is no assurance whatever that the constitutionalists will accept Carbajal as the president of Mexico.

MT. LASSEN THROWS
 ASHES 5000 FEET
Belches Forth Steam and Smoke for Hours Yesterday Morning.

Redlands, Cal, July 15.-Mount Lassen today erupted in the most se- were eruption of it's present volcanic disturbance, both in duration and in volume. The old peak started throw ing smoke, steam and ashes 6,OOO feet into the air at 6:O5 in the morning. The disturbance lasted until 6:45, when it subsided somewhat and at ' o'clock was shooting about 5000 feet, holding this altitude until about 10 o'clock, when it subsided to about 1,5OO feet.
 It continued this way until noon, when it burst into most violent eruption up to date, reaching about 5000 feet. A strong wind carried the ashes more than sixty miles in the direction of Sacramento. The vol cano continued in this state of erup- tion for more than 40 minutes.

Seek to Reopen Negotia- tions With Representatives
 of Enginemen.
55,000 MEN ARE
 READY TO QUIT
Unless Demands Are Granted, or Sat. isfactOry Compromise Effected, Prac. ticalIy All Lines West of River
 Will Be Tied Up.

Chicago, July 15.-The general man. agers' committee of the ninety-eight railroad west of the Mississippi river was today presented with notice of the vote taken by the 55,OOO engine men of the roads which showed that the enginemen are almost unanimous ill the determination to strike unless their demands are granted.
 Representative of the roads and the enginemen held a conference to- night. The enginemen's representa- tves are not prone to reopen the conference, but it is expected that there will be further negotiations in an effort to avert strike that would tie up practically every mile of rail- road west of the river.
 The managers say it would cost the roads $33, 000 annually to grant the demands of the enginemen, which are:
 Increases in the rates of pay of en- gineers and firemen in all classes of service.
 Number of hoIls after which over time will be paid in freight service be reduced from 10 to s hours and in passenger service from 10 to five hours.
 Overtime be raised to basis of time and half in freieght service and double time in passenger service.
 Engineers and tiremSn be paid an arbitrary 30 minutes preparatory time for each trip, instead of computing service continuously from actual time of reporting for duty.
 Allowance be made for terminal de- lays in addition to payment for the miles or the hours of the trip
 Differentials paid for running mal- let engines be increased.
 Differentials between local and through freight service be increased.
 Two firemen be employed on large coal burning engines, regardless of the character or length of the train, the tonnage hauled or the work re- Quired of the firemen.
 Unless the negotiations result satis- factorily, the representatives of the enginemen will return to their home and make known the answer of the managers to the demands. The strike order will then be issued.

Ten of Inquisitors Would Give Accused Woman
 Hearing.
TELLS OF SEEING
 WOMAN FIRE SHOT
Frank Farrell TeStitieS He Saw WO- man in kimOna Fire Through Win. dow of Carman's Office After
 Glass Was Broken.

Freeport, l.. l.. July 15.--lt will l be decided tomorrow morning wheth' | CT or not the grand jury is to hear
 Mrs. Florence Carmans story Of hef movements on the night Mrs. Louise
 Bailey was murdered in Dr. Carman, office.
 Frank J. Farrell, the wayfarer who on the night of June 30, applied un- successfully for food at the back door of the Carman house, was the last witness today.
 The story told by Farrell thought
 to be witness of little importance
 not only complete the story of Celie Coleman, the CarmaH maid, but com
 plete, if true, the trip which Mrs. Carman is alleged to have taken from the window from which the shot was fired to the kitchen, where. Celie says she saw Mrs. CaEman. Farrell says he saw the shot fired
 He would not be able to identify Mrs Carman as the woman who he saw fire But he declares that afser ne left the back door and began to re- treat toward the rear fence he heard a pane of glass smash.
 Farrell says that he turned quickly and saw woman shoot through the | broken glass. The woman was tall he says. She was dressed i1 ki- mona and shaw! was thrown over her shoulders. He says that he then l saw the woman leave the window and proceed toward the rear of the house.
 This is as much of Farrells story as is accessible. Whether he saw the
 woman "stroll" away from the win dow, thereby corrobora cng the tes- timony of Elwood Brades, could not be learned. No point in Celie Colman's story was contradicted by Farrell. After District Attorney Smith had decided that no chances could be taken and that Mrs. Carman would
 not appear before the grand jury, the situation became more involved when Mrs. Carman personally sent a 1eti" ton to the grand jury asking them tc hear her.
 District Attorney Smith permitted the petition to be presented to- the grand jurymen, and then and there Sldrlcu WTduSlc WHlCu was o+I'l
 hot at adjournment time. Ten Of the
 jurymen wanted to hear Mrs. Car
 man, but the others did not. Mrs. Carmans Appeal. Mrs. Carman through her attorney George Levy, gave out a statement She said in part:
 "I ask that judgment be suspend
 ed until the entire truth in regard to
 the murder of poor Mrs. Bailey be-
 comes known: I am satisfied that the truth will come out, and when am free, Dr. Carman and myself will never rest until the assassin of Mrs.
 Bailey is found
 "This terrible punishment has
 been meted out to me for the suspi- cion I permitted to crowd out the
 love I hold for my husband. My little baby has been sent to the home of strangers. My mother is lying at the point of death. I am innocent and can not understand why every thing said about me has been so dis torted. All want is fair play"

Acrimonious Debate Indulg ed in by Senators of
 Banking Committee.
ADVERSE REPORT
 IS "SLANDEROUS'
Senators Hollis, POmerene and Lee So Characterize Report Against Con. tirmatiOn of Wilson's Choice
 for Reserve Board.

Washington, July 15.-The senate this afternoon, after solemn dis cussion of upward of ? hours behind closed doors, removed the i1junc- tion of secrecy and gave publicity to the evidence given by Thomas D.. Jones before the banking committee.
 MT. Jones is the personal choice of the president for member of the fed eral reserve board and if he is con- firmed, it is understood to be the presidents purpose to make him governor of the board.
 During this session, Acting Chair man Hitchcock submitted and eX- plaiaed his report against confirma- tion of MT. Jones. The meeting of the comimttee early in the morning, when the majority report was sub- mitted was lively sitting. Senators Hollis, Pomerene and Lee announced the report as prepared by Senator Hitchcock as ''slanderous" and ''libelous" Senator Hitchock retort- ed that the truth never was slanderous and that it was because the report W oo lOuIloCu OA u ulH lHeAl llc II iCINo of Jones were opposing it.
 President Suggests Delay.
 The minority report was not ready, and Senator Hitchcock announced that he would submit the majority re- port to the senate anyway. The friends of Jones are now fighting for delay. The cue for this came from the white house. During the morning, the president sent for sena- tors and at the conference delay was advised in the hope that thes losses sustained through Democratic defec- tion might be regained This, how ever, opponents of Jones say is inn possible. Senator Balkhead, account ed as one of those against Jones, told the president he would be re- jected l~s majority of at least five.
 Senator Clarke of Arkansas, anoth- CT disaffected Democrat, upon return ing to the capitol, told his colleagues that the majority against Jones would be at le.st seven.
