NO MORE OFFICERS
TO BE APPOINTED
Police Department Funds Low
and No Men Will Get Places
atpresent.
No more polloe offlcero will bo p-
polnted until after January 1, according
to Big Slchel, chairman or the police
commissioners.
At the meeting of the commissioners
this morning It waa found that the
money In the police deportment fund
would run behind about $1,000, .which
amount will have to be taken from the
general fund. After allowing the bills
for November there was only about
$4,000 In the fund.
"We have several vacanclen In th de
partment now. caused by resignations
and dismissals," said Slg Slchel, "but I
think we will have to do without any
more men until after New Years. Our
funds are rather low and we desire to
get along as economically aa possible."
He stated that In cane the council ap
proves the) estimates of expenses for the
coming year, the 10 additional men pro
vided for in the estimate will be ap
pointed, together with men td fill tha
vacancies In the department.
There are very few men on the ellglblk
list and In order to get suitable of
ficers another examination will have to
be hefd by the civil service commission.
The estimate also provides for (0 ad
ditional men during the Lewis and Clark
fair. A campaign to secure these of
ficers will be commenced soon after the
new year. In all probability they will
receive appointment In May.

Searching parties, headed by the mine
inspector, are working Incessantly this
afternoon, hoping to rescue those lm

There is small hope. The workers have
to force air Into the shart, as tney pro
ceed, to overcome the gaa.
Tnanactnr Owen nova the mine has
been regarded aa one of the aafast In
the state, and that Ita superinvention.
C. H. -Burnett, has been considered a
careful man.
Nearly all the vlctlma were married
and leave large families. The entire
town is in mourning.
The Louma boys were nephews of Eric
Louma. whose son-in-law was killed in
an accident a year ago.

Without delay searching parties were
organized and as order waa brought
about at the shaft's mouth a tally waa
taken of the men missing.
The mine employs more than 100 men,
but of these only 40 were at work at

aa the time broached over into another
day the work was dlscontinuea.
At the time when the gas drove back
the rescuing parties, there were 11
bodies, burned, blackened and distorted,
lying on planks laid in the mine ma
chine shop, which had been turned Into
a temporary morgue.
But there was no suroaase of anxiety
or mourning In the camp, and the wall
