of the tunnels had collapsed.
It la thought that many men were
buried under the debris and that if

away at least 100 bodies may itever
be recovered. Fire Is still raging
in these tunnels; and these portious

The explorers met with great ob-

The negroes who did the shooting
made their escape and this probably
accounts for the fact that further dis
orders were not recorded later
Late Monday afternoon one of the
negroes charged with the shooting
was arrerted and lodged In jail
Three others for whom warrants
were Issued have not been appre

Following repeated efforts on the

party of cltirens, started for the

At Cleveland. Ohio, Gifford Pin-

was lauded in a public address by
former Secretary of the Interior Jag.
R. Garfield, as the most active ex
ponent of the Roosevelt policies.
“Gifford Plnchot, who has Just
left Ihe service of the national gov
ernment, Is the one man who per
haps worked the hardest for the
Roosevelt doctrine of conservation
of our natural recources and his
principle of equal opportunities for
all," said Mr. Garfield, speaking at
Goodrich House, a social settle
ment, on “T^e Roosevelt Poli
cies.'*
"Hla departure from the national
service is one of the greatest loss
es the national government has sus
tained In recent years
Mr. Garfield expressed the hope
that Mr. Plnchot’s activities as
friend of the conservation movement
would be continued as a private citi
zen.

"About the mine disaster*. It Is
not for the national government to
attend to the punishment of the Ir

another result of the greed of capi

for national aid Is a bad thl^ snd

The recent utterance of President
Taft for the health of the country to
be placed under national control is
all wrong, for the health of the peo

or State. It would be Impossible
for the government to carry on this
ireal work auccesafully. The new

have worked remarkably well and
have done much for the people.”
Getting near home the senator stat

Branchville, Nov. 26.—Special:
State Geologist Sloan, of Columbia,
has been In Branchville the past
week looking further into the bed
of phosphate rock that is situated
almost right lu town. It will be
remembered that last winter while
digging a well on the lands of Mrs
Murray, there was discovered a de
posit of geological specimens and
rocks that were curloauly examine:
by many. They were determined
then as being phosphate, but noth
ing was done to determine the real
worth of the bed and how rich It
was.
Now the geologist has made a
thorough Inspection of the land
around where this find was made and
has gone Into the thing thoroughly.
He finds that under the surface about
ten feet there Is a great bed of
this deposit that he declares la good
phosphate. It is very rich and will
produce, it Is estimated, at least
1,000 tone per acre and possibly a
*rvt,d*sl more, all of It being very
close to the surface. It is not
known yet how far the deposits
extend, but It is most prob
able that they cover a consider
able portion of the land. Mr. J. J
Hutto owns the land where the rich
est find of this rock la situated, and
this land is Just out side of the
town limits.
Geologist Sloan stated when ask
ed aa to the probability of working
this find, that In the course of five
or ten years It could he worked very
profitably aud would be a source of
much revenue to the parties own
ing the land and to the town of
Branchville aa well, for then fertl

Could Not Stand Strain of Farther
Controversy.
Another member of the Cook
family, this time Mrs. Josephine
Dudley, a sister of the explorer's
wife, made a statement.
■Mrs. Dudley says Dr. Cook Is a
nervous wreck, unable to think con
secutively, and that the reason he
remains In hiding Is that he could
not stand the strain of further con
troversy.
“We are praying,’* said Mrs. Dud
ley, "that he will soon succeed, so
that he may come forward and de-
fe'd himself. Mrs. Cook is at her
husband's side. She loves him and
trusts him. There has been no quar
rel, there never was any trouble
between them about money."
Mrs. Dudley received a message,
she said, from Walter Lonsdale, Dr.
Cook’s secretary, dated Copenhagen,
and reading as follows.
"Cable Fred’s address at once.
All Important. Must see him now."
Mrs. Dudley has not answered the
message yet, because she fears it
may be a trap. The doctor has had
a disheartening relapse, she said,
and it Is Important that, his seclu-
skm shall not Ae disturbed.. SbeLwrok MyutactureAby^
