MINE EXPLOSION MILLS TWENTY,
 INJURIES SEVEN

Pittsburg, Kans., Dec, 13.-Twenty miners were killed and seven injured, in an explosion late today in the Reedy 6 Ryan coal mine at Stone City, fifteen miles southwest of here.
 The injured will recover, it is be- lieved
 A combination gas and powder ex- plosion is believed to have been the cause of the disaster, but state mine experts had not been able to pene- trate the mine to make an thorough examination. With one exception, the loss of life was the greatest in the history of Kansas coal mines, officials said to- night. The exception was the killing of 40 men in 1889 in an explosion in a mine at Frontena.
 The killed and injured men were working in the south drift of the mine, while 63 men were busy in the north drift. A driver heard rumb- ling noise, and shortly following smoke began to pour out of the south en- trance. The alarm was given and inl- mediately miners from the north drift began to emerge from the under ground workings. Work of rescue in the south drift was started at once.

Associations Adopted at Conference Here Yesterday Ask Goyernor-Elect to Recommend Legislation Put
 ting Farms on Tax Books.

A conference at noon yesterday, at
 the Hotel Pines, following @ luncheon
 at which the chamber of commerce
 and it's special committee were hosts. 1 end which was attended by some of i the largest property owners and most
 influential residents of Jefferson and
 Lincoln counties, eliminated in two
 important resolutions being adopted, as follows:
 | One, that the state should pay the annual tax for ievce, drainage and {. rood districts, on the properties en- bracad in the Tucker and Cummins convict farms, the same as is paid by privately ly-owned property in the same improvement districts.
 The other, that taxes which now go to the maintenance of the state high way commission, should be paid into the treasury of the counties which pay that tax, this resolution also advocat- ing the abolishing of the state high way commission as at present constl- tuted under the law.
 The resolutions will be placed be- fore Governor elect c. H. Brough by a committee representing the two counties, and he'll be urged to make recommendation along those lines, to the legislature. The impression pre- vailed at the conference yesterday that Dr. Brough, and other leaders in state governmental and law mak- ing affairs, will take favorable action on the proposition.
 Bloom Explains Situation.
 Secretary E. B. Bloom of the chamber of commerce placed the mat ter before the meeting, after the lun- cheon had been enjoyed. He explained that the property now occupied as state convict farms had previously paid taxes into the special improve ment districts, but since being acquir- ed by the state, no such taxes had been paid, although the lands had en- joyed all the benefits ofssuch improve ments. There are about 5000 acres in the Tucker farm, and about 7,500 acres in the Cummins9 farm. MT. Bloom mentioned also that the cham Der of commerce has 3ilrged that Jefferson county man be- made mem- Der of the penitentiary commission, but stated that so far as this coun- ty is concerned, it will be equally sat isfied if Lincoln county man is ap- pointed.
