Fifty-two Are Rescued by First

MANY ARE INJURED
No Absent Miners Believed to
Have PcriShed; Dust
Causes Blast
BY associated Press

Kempton, w. Va, Feb. 29.-Six men
are known to be dead, nine are still
missing and 50 have been brought
safely from mine No. AZ of the Davis
Coal and Coke Company near here.
where an explosion occurred this
morning soon after the miners had
gone to work. The missing men had
penetrated far into the workings and
rescuers expressed their opinion that
they had perished.
The mine, which is a shaft 427 feet
deep, was not badly wrecked, accord
ing TO mine officials. The explosion, it
was stated, was probably caused by
dust.
Scarcely had the men reached their
working places when the explosion
occurred. Those not directly in range
OF the blast hurried to the main en-
tries and started for the foot of the
shaft in which the cages were still
operating. There they were met by
rescue parties from the surface and
quickly hoisted to daylight Other
rescuers made their way into the
mine, and soon located six bodies
Later in the morning other miners
who had been unable to reach the
main lines of communication were
found and brought out. Four of them
were badly hurt.

LATE TRAIN TO
RUN TO READING
P. & r. Superintendent Pro-
cures Much Needed Accom-
mediation For Public

Commencing Thursday, March 2,
the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way Company will run a late train
between this city and Reading, leaving
Harrisburg at 10 o'clock at night and
arriving at Reading at 1850. A new
morning train will also so on, leaving
Reading at > o'clock in the morning
and arriving at Harrisburg at 6:55.
The night train accommodation
came through the efforts of r. j.
Stackhouse, superintendent of the
Harrisburg division, who has been
making every effort possible to have
the passenger department officials
give better service between this city
and Reading.
The train will make all stops be-
tween Harrisburg and Reading and
will be big accommodation to people
who come to Harrisburg over other
lines and heretofore had to remain
in the city over night. The last train
out of Harrisburg over the Reading
now leaves at 6:30 in the evening.
The morning train will do away
with the necessity for carrying pas
sengers on the milk train.

DEMOCRATS ARE
FACING PARTY ROW
Royal and Jones to Be Opposed
by Mehan and Meyers,
1t Is Said

A split lis rapidly developing in the
ranks of the Democratic machine in
Dauphin county. The reorganiZers,
backed by former Mayor Vance c. Nc
Cormick. are to be opposed at the
primaries by a full set of candidates
set up by those who follow the Old
Guard leadership in this city and
county. The battle for control of the
party machinery promises to be one
of the bitterest since the days of the
old Meyers -Fritchey ructions.
The reorganizers picked Howard w.
Jones, chairman of the Democratic
city committee, and eX-Mayor John X
Royal as their candidates for state
committeeman. Royal is now State
committeeman. Both are from the city
and this aroused the ire of many Dem
ocrats in the county, who are also sore
over the discrimination shown in the
passing out of post office appointments.
AS a result Jones and Royal will be
opposed. it is understood by ex-County
Commissioners Patrick II. Mehan. of
Williamstown, and w. X. Meyers, of
Harrisburg. Mehan is a fighter and will
doubtless carry the whole upper end
by sweeping maiorities. due to the dis
satisfaction with post office appoint
ments there. Commissioner Gorgas
who is the reorganizer choice for ma
tional delegate is also to have oppo-
SitiOn.

Pleasantview, the growing lit

Residents of that section are eager
to have City Council consider them as

very near future, City Commissioner
Harry f. Bowman, said to-day after

The advisability of admitting Pleas
antview, Mr.. Bowman added, Will
likely be one of the problems that will
be threshed out by the commissioners
at an informal conference to be held
sometime prior to the next meeting
of Council probably Monday morning.
The admission OF Pleasantview is
still very much in the embryonic stage
according to Mr.. Bowman, although
the da,a relative to the taxation,
water rates, etc, is being collected
for consideration of the city commits
