RESCUE OF Is

HOPE FOR OTHERS
Heroism of "Nipper Boy
Brings Freedom to En-
tombed Men.

BUTTE, Mont, June 1.-THE res
cue of rs men yesterday who were
thought to be among the dead in the
Spectator shaft of the North Butte
Mining Company, where more than
200 were entombed Saturday, gave rise
to renewed hopes today that some OF
the 50 men still believed to be in the
mine, would be taken out alive.
The latest figures made public by
the coroner account for sixty-three
known dead The total probable dead,
the coroner said, was 146.
There are still thought to be So
dead in the mine. =.
While the coroner is of the opinion
they have perished, relatives are hope
full, particularly in view of the rescues
alive yesterday of 25 men through the
ingenuity of Mengus Duggan, twenty
year old stripper boy.
Duggan's handling of men OF the
shift of men on the 2,400 foot level
of the mine, his building of bulkheads
with dirt, tagging and the mems gar
ments and the break for the open
shaft when the gases became unbear-
able, have made him the popular hero.
Because of it, the safety first crews
of the mines have entered into the
rescue work with renewed vigor and
hope to bring more men out OF the
mine alive

LONDON, June 1.-THE British
have made an additional advance
south Of Messines, according to an Of.
flcial statement issued by the war Of
flee this morning.
The statement follows:
There was considerable artillery
activity on both sides during the night
east of Epehy. Bodies Of hostile
troops assembling in this area were
dispersed by our fire. We made a
successful raid last night southwest of
LaBassee. Much damage was done to
the enemy's trenches and mine CALLER

tured.
Parties OF our troops also raided
German positions east OF Vermelles
and south OF Armentieres. They in
flicted a number Of casualties on the
enemy
Our own and the enemy's artillery
showed great activity last night south
Of Ypres. Our line has again been ad-
vanced slightly south of Messines."
The wiping out Of the German sail
ent at Messines appears, In the light
of later developments to be merely the
prelude to a projected battle Of far
mightier description after German
recation of surprisingly feeble char
acter
The British have resumed trench
raids over a front reaching from
North of Ypres to as far South as
Epehy, a distance Of about 70 miles
as the crow flys, but far more than
that along the tortuous windings OF
the battle front.
The official announcement OF raids
north of Ypres is of especial interest
in view of the recent frequently re-
ported heavy artillery fire on the Bel

SPRINGFIELD, Mo, June 1.-Con
ditions in this city were practically
normal today after 36 hours of intense
excitement due to the finding on Satur.
day of the body of IA months Lloyd

and the announced intention of the
populace to take the lives of six prison
ers, one a woman, held in connection
with various alleged abduction plots
unearthed here.
The prisoners, not connected official

of J. H. Keet, banker, that had so
aroused the populace, today were
thought to be safe in the jails of other

Principal F. G. Pickell, of the high
school, has submitted the following:
1. To graduate from the high school
pupil must present before graduation
thirty-two full credits in subjects for
which credit has been approved by the
school board since these boys did not
need this requirement they could not
graduate. The time of the final
notification could not alter the num-
Der of credits which they had.
2. The number Of credits required
for graduation has appeared on every
printed curriculum of study since 1910.
and these have been In the hands Of
the pupils at all times.
3. Every year pupils apply for grad
uation and must be told they cannot
graduate. This year there were thir-
teen besides these boys, and one pupil
who applied had but one of the six
terms of English required.
4. Twice each year each pupil is ad-

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Either a

the senate naval affairs committee.
When the committee today resumed
investigation of the Mongolia shell ac-
cident, Senator Frelinghuysen produc.
ed some letters which Secretary Dan
iels said contained information which
only could have been obtained from
the confidential files of the ordnance
bureau.
He asked to have them turned over

shield any one, that he had attempted
to find out something about the au.

Secretary Daniels said 1t was abso-
lutely necessary to run down traitors
or spies in the navy department and
that the persons who furnished the
information was one or the other. He
urged the committee to uncover the
author of the letter and make him
disclose everything.
Secretary Daniels contended that
charges of incompetency were made in
the letter against inspectors and con-
tanned grave reflections upon the basic
defenses of the country. One of the
letters was postmarked Detroit, Mich.
