III., Nov. 20. Ema ciated from starvation and thirst and suffering intensely from the in halation of gases, 142 miners were found alive by rescuers today in the St. Paul mine, which was ravaged by fire preceding and following an explosion last Saturday, when 385 men were entombed. Too weak to aid themselves, the survivors were carried to the surface of the shaft as rapidly as possible. Fifty dead were also taken from the mine today. The survivors were found shel tered behind the walls of debris and for the first few days of their im prisonment had subsisted on food taken into the mine before the dis aster occurred. When this gave out there was nothing for them to do but await rescue. The remote re cesses of the mine contained enough partly pure air to supply them. I Eruption InrivtiNinK.

It was charged hy the attorneys 'for the United States that in 1892 Puter and Krihs entered into a con spiracy whereby they hired two men classes as "hobos" to make entry on a school section on what is now a j part of the National forest. As soon as the entries were innde the con- jsplrators are said to have gone be fore the State Land Hoard of Oregon .tltlri eflHsfinrl Unit lrwlv Dint tha utaln had lost Its title to the land, and they applied for Bcrip which was exchange- able with the Government for other . lands.

It Is understood that Krihs will dony entering into any conspiracy with Puter to obtain nossesslon of the school lands in the first Instance, and will assert thnt when he mirchased the deeds of Miller and Kohlnson he thought they were genuine. Mrs. Marie Ware McKinley testi fied that she forged 'the signatures to rhe various Government papers in the case. It is understood In Government circles that Krihs represented large timber owners In Minnesota in bis operations In this sitate, but every effort to get service on t'hem has failed. Even if the Government should succeed in reverting the lands to the public domain It will be un able to sustain a criminal prosecution because of the intervention of the statute of limitations. The state of Oregon has no Interest in the case, as the alleged conspira tors received the Indemnity scrip after paying the state 1n full at the aereage price fixed by the Ivand Board. Sick Hemlm-he.
