I w l:s: CASH FOR RIVERS Chairman Otirton Sure Appropria tion Bill Will Pass. ITS FATE RESTS WITH SENATE Only Danger I Hint Load of Amend ments May Sink It In tho Upper House. Washington, Feb. 23. Chairman llurten, of tlio rivers ami harbors com mittee, expressed tho bollof today that hit bill, consideration of which was begun In tho house yesterday, will pass both houses and become law before March 4. Then has been a growing fear that this bill would be sidetracked, not only liecouse of the demands of jvorty lenders for economy, but because of the un precedented Into date in bringing it up for consideration. Only eight days rv pialn to pass, it through both houses and through conference, less timo than was cvor before given any river and harbor bill. Burton, bowerer, says the slwrtage of timo is a strong factor in favor of the passage of tho bill. It will induce the senate to make only slight amendments, for fear of losing what is proposed by the house. He savs that unless the senate loads the bill down with large amend ments, it will pass without material objection, carrying practically the a propriations agreed to by the house committee. HOPE TO BANKRUPT JAPAN Russians Rely on Long Purse for Es cape from Defeat. St. Petersburg, Feb. 23. Although tho party which is advocating jeace as the only egress from the present situa tion continues to gain strength, noth ing has actually been decided, and no move has yet been made. It is otli daily maintained that Russia's attitude is unchanged. At tho foreign office not the slightest encouragement is given to the pence talk. On the contrary, it is affirmed as strongly as ever that Japan must propose terms, while at the same time it is admitted that it is incon ceivable that Japan can offer condi tions acceptable to Russia. The idea of a complete Russian vic tory is not harbored, but it is insisted that Russia is not beaten, and will not be beaten until General Kuropatkin is decisively worsted by General Oyama and the fate of Admiral Rojestvensky's squadron is determined. The main consideration entering into the calcu lations of the uncompromising advo cates of a proeecution of the war is that Japan's financial resources must be come exhausted long before Russia's.

EXPLOSION OF DUST THE CAUSE Details of Cause of Explosion Will Likely Never Bo Known Relief Hurried to Scono. Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 21. By an explosion tit tho Virginia mine, uUiut 18 miles southwest of Birmingham, at 4 o'clock this afternoon, between 110 and 136 union miners are entombed and It is believed the entire number suffered an awful death. Scores ot vigorous rescuers are at work digging into tho mine to relieve their friends and comrades in tho inside. Tho explosion is ticlicvcd to have been caused by an uccumulatii n of dust, although the mine has heretofore been noted for being entirely free from dust. It is also bolievovd that, as the entire quota has probably laim killed, the details of the cause of the disaster will never be known. The camp is almost isolated from the rest of the world, there ii no telephone station at Virginia, ami the only wire running to the place is a dispatcher's wire of the Birmingham Mineral rail way, on which Virginia is located. Details of tho disaster were slow to come in. The class of miners employed was the best in the district, and all be longed to the United Mineworkers of America. Since the strike has been on in the Birmingham district, many of the most industrious and thrifty miners of Pratt City and other important min ing points have removed to the Vir ginia mines, so that the mines were being worked to their full capacity by the most skilled miners in the commu nity. Relief trains with surgeons ami workmen were dismtchcd from Iwth itirmiiignam ami iieasemer as soon as the news of the disinter was learned. They began the work of succor in earn est and at midnight had not dug half way through the mass of debris. It is thought it will lie 10 o'clock tomor row before the interior of the stope is reached. The st oih are well arranged and there has never been the least trouble In the mines before. They are owned by the Alabama Steel k Wire company, but are leased and operated by Reid A Co. EXTRA SESSION ON RAT E LAW. Will Be Called in October, Earlier Action Being Impossible. Washington, Feb. 21. President Roosevelt, who for weeks has been hopeful that. some definite action might Ik? taken at tho present session of con gress on the railroad rate question, practially has relinquished the idea of securing legislation on the subject this winter. It is reasonably certain tltat he will not call an extraordinary sua sion of congress to meet in the spring, but unlet he changes his mind, he will call congress together, probably next Octoler. Representatives F.seh and Townsond, jobit authors ot the rate hill which passed the house, had a talk with the president today. They outlined the rate situation and conditions us they found it. They agreed with him that the prospect for the enactment of rate legislation at this session was. remote. They indicated that if no action was taken at this session, the subject would be considered thoroughly during the coming summer with the idea of pre senting a measure at the next session which, very likely, would contain some additional features. Will Confer on Irrigation. Washington, Feb. 21. A conferonro ot reclamation engineers has been called to meet at Klamath Falls, Arpll 1, to consider plans and estimates for the Klamath irrigation project. At that meeting it is hoed final plans may lie made for buying out owners ot the small canals, including the rights of the Klamath Canal company. The government is willing to pay this com pany $160,000 to get out of the way. Tho company demands more, but it is lielleved will eventually accept this figure. Will Issue Philippine Bonds. Washington, Feb. 21. After consul tation by cable with Governor General Wright, at Manila, Secretary Taft has decided to avail himself immediately of tho provision of the Cooper bill au thorizing tho Issue of bonds to defray the cost of public works in tho Philip pines. It is tho purpose to issue $2,- 600,000 of these bonds bearing four per cent interest and they are to run for 30 years with tho option of redemp tion at the end of ten years, Can't Compel Judge to Act. Washington, Feb, 21. Tho case ot the Caledonian Coal company vs. Ben jamin F, Baker, judge ot the Supremo court of New Mexico, to compel him to tako cognizanco of an action against tho Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fo rail road was decided by tho Supreme court of the United Stated today against tho company. TERMS OF PEACE. They Havo Boon Practically Ap,rood Upon by dnpan and Russia. St. Petersburg, Feb. 22. Despite tho official denials, ho PoUldiery Press correspondent Is In a posTi,Wn to state that the war and his advisers havo of late not only discussed the question ot peace with Japan, hut have also practically agreed upon certain terms, which are acceptable to tho em peror, and, It Is alleged, are almost Identical with those which have Ikvii submitted by the Japanese government to Russia through the agency of the German emperor. It Is still dollied that such terms were submitted, but it is nevertheless true that they have reached the hands of the czar. Tho terms acceptable to both nations, and practically agreed to by the csar, place Korea under Japanese suserwlnly and cede Port Arthur and the Mao Tung peninsula to Japan. Vladivostok, under the stipulations, is to W declared a neutral and oen port in place of Port Arthur, the neu tralisation ot which Jann would mil agree to. This feature. Ml is staled, proved one of the most objectionable l Kussja, as it was hoped that the die armament of Port Arthur and its trans formation into a purely commercial jNtrt, ovu to all nations, would end the vexing Muncliurian question. The Kustern Chinese railway Is to lie placed under a neutral international administration, and, in order to pro vide some sort of safeguard for future peace in Manchuria, that country, as far north as Harbin, is to 1h restored as an integral part of China. The main difficulty in the way ot bringing about immediate peace seems to bo the question of indemnity. It Is known that Japan will insist iion a considerable money mymcut, ami .Rus sia is not willing to submit to that con dition. The difficulty, however, is by no means insuperable, but if it should prove to lie a serious olutacle, the car will Hrhas be willing to risk another battle in the hope of gaining a victory which may make the Japanese more amenable to the Russian arguments. LIFE IN ONLY ONE. Blackened and Mangled Corpses Re moved from Alabama Mine. Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 22. The scene at the Virginia mine this after noon, where u terrific afterdamp explo sion yesterday afternoon Imprisoned 11(1 men 700 feet below- the surface, was the most gruesome and harrowing that ho ever tit-en witnessed in this section of Alabama. Of the miners who entered the mines yesterday after noon, so far only 60 bodies have been recovered, mo recovery already oi so many dead bodies precludes the idea that any living men remain among the unfortunates still in the mints. The corpses are frightfully mangled and disfigured and identification is almost lmossible. Out ot the 60 bodies recovered up to this time, o'no was found about 4 o'clock which was barely alive. The body was carefully taken from the mine and heroic method resorted to to bring the man to consciousness. He is still alive, hut scant hope is hold out fur his recovery. FAVOR COAST SHIPYARDS. Humphrey Pleads for Differential on Naval Contracts. Washington, Feb. 21. An oaruost effort is being made by cnonKresemou from the Pacific coast to liav inserted in the naval appropriation bill a pro vision for a 4 er cent differential in favor of shipyard on the West coast in the contract price for warshiji con structed In thesu yards.
