BALLAINE CASE
 IS ALL OVER
ARGUMENTS PRESENTED TO- DAY AND WILL BE SUB
 MITTED MONDAY.

The arguments in the Ballaine case were delivered yesterday and today and the case will be submitted to the court at the beginning of the regular session of court next Monday. At torneys Haight and Ray, argued for the defense but Judge Morford did not. T. c. West spoke for the plaintiff company yesterday and made the closing argument today after the attorneys for the defense had con cluded. The arguments chiefly dealt with the matters of law. The case was postponed for a short time this morning owing to the illness of Mir. West who was a rather sick man. He found it necessary, however, to proceed as he leaves for the outside on the Alameda. The case was con ducted by the counsel on both sides in a manner which has caused the most favorable comment, both be- cause of the ability and urbanity dis played on all hands. Messrs MorfOrd and Ray, it is permissible to say for the benefit of outsiders. are local men. It may also be permissible to say that they reflect credit on the Alaska bar. Messrs Haight and West were worthy opponents of each other and both leave many friends. The case is now in the hands of the court. It is generally believed that whatever the verdict of this court may be an appeal will be taken.

 AFTER LOSING PROPELLER

The Augusta c" arrived last night at the midnight hour, after having lost her propeller about six hours journey out of Seldovia. E. and J. Jacobson, owners of the gas boat, say that the trip over from Seldovia was none the pleasantest. Leaving there fifteen days ago with 30 tons or Herbert's coal they expected to ar rive in Seward in few days at the most, when only a short distance from that town their propeller drop ped off in about 150 fathoms of water. They then set sail and made the best time they could arriving in Resurrection Bay yesterday after noon about noon. A few days out of Seldovia they ran out of food, water and other necessaries. They were, however, able to catch a few salmon on their way over that help ed out their bill of fare.

CONCERT GAVE REAL
 PLEASURE LAST NIGHT

The Sinclair concert last evening brought out vividly some real truths. One is that the population of Seward is not yet large enough to support properly anything that is really good. Another is that Mir. Sinclair has voice which is a real asset to the Terminal City, There is no use in going into details about it. Seward will learn yet for itself and be glad. Miss Frances Root was exceedingly good at the piano ond to praise Mrs. McNeer as accompanist would be- well, painting the lily. The rather small audience showed it's apprecia- tion unmistakably and called Mir. Sin clair and Mrs. McNeer at the close of the program. A pleasant dance fol- lowed.

The com pany really only refuses to accept few clauses, one of which is the twenty-five per cent reduction to the city The clause about the wires crossing the street got into the fran chise by mistake. The whole thing is only a storm in a teacup.

CHILDREN DEAD
 IN EXPLOSION
FIFTY KNOWN TO BE DEAD AS RESULT OF AN ACCI-

PEABODY, Oct. 28.-One of the most horrible occurrences on record took place here today when an ex- plosion in the basement of St. Johns Parochial school took the lives of, maybe, scores of children. At the time this dispatch is sent twenty of the pupils are known to be dead, and it is feared that as many more will be found to have lost their lives when the full facts are ascertained. The children were going through eX- ercises this morning when the explos- ion took place. The result was so awful that connected story is i'm possible but later news will be sent.

Twenty-seven bodies have been recovered and it is believed that twenty-five more are buried in the ruins. Twelve others amnogSt those in the hospital will probably die. The awful number of deaths is due in a great measure to fact that the doors of the school opened inward and could not be opened in the rush so that many of the little children were trampled and smothered as they crowded towards where they expected safety. No fire escapes had been pro- vided. Several of the children were saved by jumping into blankets. held below by citizens.

COWS ARE IN AGAIN
Whee! Mrs. Scott Durand's "sas-
siety'' COWS are going to get some
one ''in bad"
When the foot and mouth disease
first was on rampage in Illinois the
COWS were quarantined, after North
Shore society was scared to death for
fear it had caught the foot and
mouth disease.
According to the government, they,
the COWS, should have been killed in
stead of quarantined, and their ex-
istence with the disease has made it
hard for Illinois cattlemen to sell
their stock outside of the state.
The federal grand jury is going to
look over the case and see if some/
one isn't to blame for blocking the
slaughter of Lake Bluffs "sassiety''

When Judge Lands declared the

fairly in 1912 the company stood
charged with "unduly cutting prices"
