-ed and 16 injured. With the exception
of one, those killed were foreigners.
With few exceptions the injured were
Americans.
inspector Joseph Williams with a
party entered tho mine today to ascer
tain if there were any more victims.
Superintendent A. M. Johns stated
that while the mino has always been
regarded as non-gaseous, the explosion
was caused by a miner s open lamp ig
niting a pocket of gas.
The mine isburning fiercely in seve
ral places and deadly black damp is
pouring from the mouth, effectively
preventing systematic rescue work.
Largo quantities of oxygen and many
oxygen tanks have been requested from
the Cambria Steel company of Johns
town, Pa., and the United States gov
ernment mining and testing station at
Pittsburg.

Build Rosorvolrs and Aid Home
Refinories to Fight Octopus.
Vienna, June 26. Owing to tho do-
cisivo intervention of tho imperial gov
ernment, tho Standard Oil company's
plans for gaining control of tho Gall-
cian petroleum industry have suffered
a final and crushing defeat Tho Aua-
trians havo withdrawn tho contract
with tho company, which would havo
insured to tho American concern n
dominating position in tho Galician oil
Holds, for which it has been striving
many years.
Tho minister of finnnco has under
taken to build reservoirs and lenso
them to oil mon at rents much less
than those demanded by tho Standard
Oil company. Moreover, homo refinors
will escapo tho handicap of heavy re
bates cn the price of tho raw product
which tho Standard was to havo en
joyed under the contract now canceled.
The government expresses a hope
that competition will bo sharpened
through abrogation of tho contract, but
it is probable that lively fight will fol
low for export trade, which vitally
affects the Standard s position in Ger
many.

Compromises With
Who Embozzled
WOMEN ARE SAVAGES.
Famous Scientist CausesStir at Chi
cago by Declaration.
Chicago, June 24. "Woman, the
eternal savage, whose only salvation
lies in the fact that she always has
been and always will be a savage," has
been flayed again by the lash of Pro
fessor Frederick Starr, the famous
scientist and ethnological explorer of
the university of Chicago.
"Women are not civilized," accord
ing to the astute investigator. "Fur
thermore, they should not be civilized.
wnat is more, tney can't be," he con
tinues, "for the fundamental nature of
woman is barbaric, and it is better so,
Bince the posterity, even the continu
ance of the race, depends upon the
rigid assertion of a fundamental differ
ence between man and woman."
"Woman's religion is also notably
that of lower culture," he asserts.
"ane is always seeing signs in every
thing; she avoids having 13 at her
table and starting on a journey on Fri
day; she is the chief supporter of
spiritual mediums. She is the founder
of new sects, in which the religous
attitude of savgery is given high
sounding names and maintained by
most select individuals; she dabbles
constantly in the occult."
OFFICE CLERK SUSPECTED.
Former Official
$1,000,000.
Winnipeg, Man., June 25. Tho
famous case in which the czar of Rus
sia brought action against Ivan Pros-
kowreakoff in tho Winnipeg courts for
the recovery of a large amount of mon
ey was ended today after a year and a
half of litigation.
Ivan was a defaulting official in
charge of the administration of a pro
vince in the trans-Caucasus. He ab
sconded with more than $1,000,000
years ago, made his way through China
and Japan, where he purchased large
quantities of Oriental goods, and final
ly reached America, opening stores in
San Francisco, Vancouver and Winni
peg.
Anna Seaman, a talented and hand
some JKussian woman, alleged to be a
Nihilist, joined him here as his wife,
and they kept house in luxurious fash
ion in a fashionable suburb. ,
The Russian police eventually traced
him to Winnipeg, but when the time
came to make bis arrest he was miss
ing. His property was attached, and
after a long fight, a compromise finally
has been reached under which the prop
erty and merchandise is to be sold and
the proceeds divided between the czar
and representatives of tho Proeko-
wreakoffB.
Injunction Is Granted Against Crater
Lako Road.
Salem In tho Circuit court Judgo
William Galloway granted n perpetual
injunction restraining tho governor and
Bocrotnry of tho troosury from paying
out $100,000 for tho construction of
tho road to Crater lako. He hold tho
law is special and local and clearly in
hibited by tho constitution of thostato.
The cuso wjll bo immediately appealed.
Tho Supremo court has provioualy tak
en tho sumo Btand ns Judgo Galloway,
in a caso almost identical.
Tho court's reasons for the decision
are given as follows:
The act is local and special in that it
applies to only two counties in the
state and because it is limited to n spe
cified section and for special purposes
only. Tho act creates a loan of tho
credit of tho stato, which in tho aggre
gate with proviouB debts or liabilities
exceeds tho sum of $50,000.
Tho proposed Crater lake road would
not bo a continuous public highway
across tho stato via Crater Lake Na
tional park because tho act provides
only for tho construction of roads from
Medford, in Jackson county, to tho
western boundary of the park and from
Klamath Falls, Klamath county, to tho
eastern boundary of tho park, leaving
an intervening segment of more than
13i miles over which the stato gov
ernment has no jurisdiction or right to
trespass.

the government. The messages say
tho king's death is being kept secret

lik is in very ppor health if not yet
dead.
Giving Vast Estate to Charity Is
Annulled.
San Franciso, June 25. The Su
preme court invalidated today the will
of the late Adolph Sutro and ordered
that the large estate, valued at mil
lions, and consisting of the Cliff House
ranch in this city and the San Miguel
rancbo, be distributed among the
heirs. The former property is situat
ed along the beach and includes the
famous Sutro heights and resorts.
under tne terms or the will tne es
tate was to be held in trust until the
last surviving child should die, after
which the lands were to be sold and
the proceeds given to charitable and
educational institutions in this city.
The court held that the failure to pro
vide specifically for the distribution of
the proceeds of the sale rendered that
bequest invalid.

if Extra Arm Can Be Secured.
Billings, Mont, June 25. The graft-
ins of an arm from one man to another
will take place in a hospital in this
city should some unfortunate individual
come along from whom the arm may

Rumor Says Harriman Will Not Stop
at Klamath.
Klamath Falls According to reports
Klamath Falls is not to be the terminus
of the terminuBof the California North
eastern for any considerable length of
time. It is stated on good authority!
however, not officially, that a contract
has been let for the construction of 25
miles of road northward from this city
The roadbed is now completed to upper
Klamath lake, about two miles north
of the depot site. The track will be
completed during July and direct con
nection made with tho boats on the
lake. The large steam dredges used in
building the dyke across the marsh aro
to be moved to tho lake and will be
used in building the Southern Pacific
dock. This work will take but a short
time. It is generally believed that as
soon as tne docKs are completed tne
dredges will be used in constructing
the grade for the extension. It will
be necessary to cross several miles of
marsh in extending tho road northward
and it is likely that this work will bo
begun in the near future.
Local representatives of the South
ern Pacific will not confirm tho report
that a contract has been let for a 25
mile extension. Erickson & Peterson,
contractors, who have been building
the spur, say that they cannot give out
information in regard to future work.
