VIOLATION OF LAW
Caused the Death of Seventy Eight
Men at the Mouth of the Wilkes
barre Mine
ASSOCIATED Press)

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 6-Seventy-
eight men lost their lives in the Bal
timore No. tunnel of the Delaware
& Hudson Coal company explosion
and fire yesterday and 81 were in
jured, according to list given out by
the company officials.
Forty-one bodies have been identi-
fed and SO remain unidentified. The
Icompany's injured list is not complete
and it is certain that the number of
injured will reach about 40.
The disaster is, with one exception,
the greatest that has ever occurred
in this city. More than 100 mine
workers were riding to their work
crowded into what is known as a trip
OF mine cars drawn by a motor. The
rear car carried 12 kegs of powder.
The trolley wire snapped when the
train had gone about 200 feet from
the entrance and sparks ignited the
powder. There avs a roar and In an
instant every man and boy on the
train was either dead or dying.
Terribly mangled bodies were found
by the rescue crews which instantly
rushed into the mine. Fire fighters,
working frantically succeeded in
quickly subduing the flames which
followed.
Then followed the gruesome work
Of taking out dead and injured. Those
who had not already succumbed were
so badly burned that in nearly every
case death is matter of only a short
time.
Violation of the mine laws of the
state is said to have caused the great
loss of life. One of the most drastic
provisions of the mine code is that
forbidding the transportation of men
on car or train which carries ex-
plosives. Investigation will disclose
whether the men or company is re-
sponsible for this violation of the law.
Some of the first bodies brought
out from the tunnel were burning
when they reached the surface. The
clothes had been burned away and the
flesh was roasting from the intense
heat.

N1IIHeS- y QlOnD
Tallahassee, June 5.-Gov. Cats
sent the following message to both
branches of the legislature today:
The daily papers announce the fact
that the Congress of the United
States has passed woman's suffrage
and now the matter goes to the diff
ferent states for ratification. While
this office has not received any verif-
cation from the Office of the secretary
of state, Washington, d. c., as to the
newspaper report, still the Associat-
ed Press would not dare publish some
thing of so vast Importance as this il
it were not true.
The legislature of the state OF
Florida will adjourn tomorrow, and il
has the opportunity, while now in reg.
ular and due order, of putting itsei1
on record to be the first state in the
sisterhood of states to ratify this
great movement upon the part of thS
federal government.
/, therefore, as governor of oul
great state, earnestly recommend that
you, by your vote, ratify this actor
upon the part of the federal Congress:
and add an imperishable laurel tC
your state, which can never die; the
fact of being the first state of the
Union to recognize woman as ar
equal with her brother man in the
rights of suffrage.

AS Peter Rabbit scampered along

and cried, Teacher. teacher. teacher.

Teacher stopped singing and look ed

why haven't you been over to see me

here for some time.
Peter looked little foolish. The
truth is. Teacher said he very hum

streaked with black certainly does
remind me of the Thrush family. II
you were not SO much smaller than
any of the Thrushes ! should almost
