According to the Fort Smith & West

in the mine at the time of the explo

cause has not buen determined.
Eight of the men who escaped were
at work in the mule stables and gained
the surface through the passage used
for tl'.e cars.
Government experts expressed the
opinion tonl.eht that all of the men
Imprisoned are dead and 75 coffms

Fort Smith, has issued an appeal for
aid for the families of the victims.
Most of the day shift of miners were

the few who escaped, though wounded
by flying wreckage from the mine,
were above the ninth level.

OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. March 20. If friends of the
Borah-Jones three-year homestead bill
In the House had been willing to fore
go the pleasure of hearing themselves
talk, that bill would have passed the
House early this afternoon and soon
have been on Its way to the White
House, but the determination of various
Western members to engage in debate
carried the discussion to a late hour
and drove out of the House most all
the Eastern members, with the result
that after six hours' discussion one of
the opponents of the bill made a point
of no quorum and forced' the adjourn
ment. The bill will come up again next
Wednesday and unquestionably will
pass If the Western men will stop
talking;. Following four hours of gen
era! debate, the House proceeded to
consider amendments to the bill and
had adopted all but one amendment
suggested by the public lands commit
tee and had voted down all the objec
tionable amendments when a dispute
arose over a timber amendment pro
posed by Representative Lenroot. This
amendment would not have endangered
the bill In any way, but It brought
forth bitter assaults upon the Interior
Department and particularly on special
agents, which moved Representative
Morse, of Wisconsin,, to resent the
strong language used and to force an
adjournment by raising the point of no
quorum. In the entire debate today not
one member voiced opposition to the
main features of the bill.
