SEIZURE OF ALIEN RUM SHIPS HELD LEGAL BY COURT
New York Federal Judge De- Cides In Favor Of
 Government

NEW YORK, August l4.-Selzure of alien rum-running vessels that hover outside the three mile limit was held legal by Federal Judge Woodrough today The decision was handed down in the case of the British ship Ma rion Mosher, seized while transfer ring a liuuor cargo to the American owned motorboat J. IT, B. eight miles off the coast near Fire Island. July 27, 1929.
 Bonds of the Detroit Fidelity and Surety company given after the seiz- ure of the craft as q guarantee that it would proceed to it's supposed des- tinatiou, St. John, N. B. were declared forfeited, it being contended that all though the Vesse larriVed at the Ca madam port. she did not have her cargo, thereby violating her agree ment.
 The Marion Mosher case brought about a special session of President Harding's cabinet and an exchange of conversations with Great Britain. The American government decided that the Mosher and other foreign vessels seized as rum runners should be re- leased provided they proceeded inn nidiate!y to their avowed destinations
 Judge Woodrough held that seizure of foreign ships engaged In snug gling liquor into this country was justifiable even though they were on the high seas
 When ship hovers around the American coast" he said. although three miles from shore with intent to violate the law, and is caught in the attempt to smuggle intoXicating liquors, and it is shown that it is in contact with shore. it's seizure, though 1t be of foreign registry and outside the three-m limit, is justifiable."

SANITARY SURVEY OF CITY TO START
 ON NEXT MONDAY
Cleveland Incineration Expert Will Plan Method Of Gar
 bage Disposal

l. $. Osborne of Cleveland. O., will start sanitary survey of Birming- ham August 20. Commissioner w F. Dickson announced in the city hall Tuesday morning.
 IS sanitary expert of recognized national reputation, considered one of the authorities on incineration and modern methods of dsposing of city refuge.
 Commissioner Dickson said Mir Os- borne would bring several members of his staff with him, but it was probable one or two others familiar with the work to be done will be added to the force making the sani- tary survey under Mr. Osborne's su- pervision.
 The coming of the expert is the re suit of resolution introdr ced by Commissioner Dickson at recent meeting of the city commission un- der which MT. Dickson was author lures to have Birmingham surveyed for guidance in improving the city's methods of disposing of garbage.
 Commissioner Dickson and other members of the board of commissions CTS are mostly interested in the in- stallation of facilities for incinera- tion, at present believing that meth cd to be the most satisfactory, but they have not committed themselves to any definite stand, prior to the report on the survey MT. Osbzerne will make.

 MINE BLAST
Explosion Followed By Fire Takes Heavy Toll In Wyo- ming-BIoWout Shot Blamed For Blast By Authorities
TRAGIC SCENES ENACTED AT MOUTH OF WORKINGS
Crowds Of Women And ChiI- dren Storm Guards In Effort To Find Their Loved Ones. Federal First Aid Arrives

kEMMERRER, Wyo., August H. (By Associated Press.)-The rescue ot three more miners entombed .n Frontier mine No. l of the Kemmer- early this morning brought the total Of survivors to 37. It was estimated tonight that the final death toll would be approximately 100.
 It is feared that the 103 men, still unaccounted for, have perished.
 The explosion occurred in the vii cinity of the 1,700-foot level of the mine. Tonight rescue workers had penetrated to nearly every quarter of the underground workings, and it was indicated they had brought out all the men remaining alive.
 O O O
 Fire Follows Blast.
 Smoke blackened members of mine cars, buried in 6 cave-in on the 1,700 foot level of the workings, in entry 15, gave rise to the belief that fire had followed the blast which tore down sections of the roof, ripped up tracks on which "trip" cars are op- erated and dismantled the electric wiring of the mine, plunging the smoke filled depths into darkness.
 The cause of the explosion is pre- sumed to have been a blowout shot according to statement issued late today by the kemmerer Coal com pany.
 The company declared in the state ment that no fire had followed the explosion. At the same time the company announced that rescue work was continuing and that the final figures on the number of victims in the disaster would not be known for few hours.
 Crowds of women and children, many of them made widows by the blast, gathered about the mouth of Is on. Many were hysterical. When trip" cars carrying the survivors came to the surface the crowd be- came almost uncomfortable, rushing forward in mad effort to find their loved ones and Kemmerer police and volunteer workers experienced the greatest difficulty in keeping them away from the mouth of the shaft.
 O O O
 100 In Rescue Crew.
 Fully 100 workers were in the low Pr depths of the mine tonight search- Ing for the bodies of the dead anu seeking survivors.
 Mine rescue car No. 9 of the United States bureau of mines, arrived here this afternoon from Rock Springs, and members of the crew immediately entered the mine to assist in rescue work. Miners on car No. were ex- pected here later today, having left Salt Lake City this afternoon.
 The men brought from the mine alive were found in entries No. 27 to 30 Nearly all of them were black ened by smoke and suffering from the effects of the inhalation of fumes, although there apparently had been very little gas in the workings after te blast.
 Pitiful scenes were enacted about the mouth of the mine, as relatives of the men who came out of the workings alive rushed into the arms

Old System Of Feeding Pris- oners Being Fought By KiIby Administration Forces Gets By House; Now Up ToSenate RATION SHEETS COSTS NOT TO BE REQUIRED Measure Gives Sheriff Power To Charge State Full Price
 Permitted Under Law, But It
 Fails To Exact Expenditure
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU |
 THE N,E- ki fk.,i'' Montromery Ala Aup If

Return to the old system of feed ing prisoners in the county Jail whereby the sherlffs were paid stip- ulated fees for the act of feeding and were not required to make an accounting U the state prison in spection department, is provided by the Powell bill which was passed by the house of representatives last Fri day and is now before the senate for consideration.
 Under the provisions of the bill when enacted into law the sheriffs will not be required to furnish monthly ration sheets to the prison inspection department showing the food served to the prisoners each day and the cost of the food and will not be required to make an accounting to the state of the amount invested in the food.
 The present law provides stipu lated amounts to be allowed sheriffs for the purchase of food. Under the cents day for each prisoner when the total number of prisoners does not exceed ten, 50 cents when the total number does not exceed 20, 40 cents when the total number does not exceed 40 and 80 cents when the total number is 40 or more.
 o o o
 Allowed Fee.
 In addition to this allowance, sheriff is allowed ten cents !. day es his fee for the preparation of the food and the work involved in the feeding of prisoners.
 The daily ration sheets are re- quired, showing the total cost of the fo2d- each day in the month and the sheriff is permitted to collect tonly the amount actually expended in the purchase of food plus ten cents per capita for the act of feeding the prisoners.
 The bill, which passed the house and which has gone to the senate for action, provides the same sched- ule except the ten cents per capita for the act of feeding. The sherifts, under the proposed bill, would re- ceive 60 cents for each prisoner when the total does not exceed 10, 50 cents when the total number does not eN- ceed 20, 40 cents when the total num- her does not exceed 40 and 50 cents when the total number is above 40.
 State records show that under the supervision of the feeding of prison CTS the sheriffs have not expended the full amount allowed to them by the law, the CneXpended amount available being left in the state treasury. Under the proposed blli the sheriffs would collect the full amount allowed and would not be required to make any accounting or the way the fund was used.
 O O O
 Amendment Defeated.
 During the consideration or the bill by the house an amendment was offered providing that any funds not needed by the sheriffs in the feeding of prisoners should revert back to the state. The proponents of the biil proposed tho amendment and 1t was laid on the table. The opponents argued that the opposition to the amendment shows the sheriffs eN- nect to make their profit from the fees allowed for the purchase of food
