ST. PETERSBURG, May 27.— Th© pro

creating an immense sensation as indi
cating extraordinary nervousness on tha
part of the Government. -
The Novoo Vremya is second only to tha
Moscow Vladomoti© in conservatism and
is usually allowed greater latitude than
are the other papers. The editorial In
question is mild as compared with many
Governmental publications on the labor
situation in more quiet times. It merely
said the operatives were poorly paid for
excessively hard work and were beginning
to be influenced by Western literature and
suggested that tho Government carry on
the work begun for emancipation and en*

The explosion was caused by what Is
known among miners as a "blown blast."
It is the custom of the miners to place
blasts and fire them oft at quitting time
each afternoon, leaving the coal thus
thrown down to be , loaded and hauled
from the mine the next- morning. The
Richland mine Is destitute of water and
great volumes of I fine particles , of coal
dust invisible to the naked eye accumu
lated at the roof of the mine. This after
noon at 4:30 o'clock a dynamite cartridge
was placed in position in one of the rooms
for a blast and tho miners started for the
mouth of the mine. The blast did not ex
plode as intended, but Instead, .a long
flame shot out of the blast hole and ig
nited the accumulation of dust. Instantly
a terrlllo explosion occurred and a seeth
ing mass of- flame shot to the mouth of
the mine and extended 300 feet into the

nearby trees. • There were thirty-four men
In the mine at the time. Four of these ea
caped with slight Injuries. Twenty-dno
were klllt'd nnd nine terribly burned, most
of them fatally. The force of the explo*
Nlon caused great mossex of coal and slate
to cave In from the roof of the mine and
many fated miners were completely
burled.
Word quickly reached Day ton. and r«i<
cue forces were at once organized and
proceeded to the mine. , One by one the
blackened and horribly disfigured bodies
were taken from the debris and carried
to the mouth of the mine, where they
were put on a locomotive and taken to
I'uyton. Scores of relatives and friends
gathered at tho mouth of the mine and
the shrieks of anguish as the bodies
were removed were heartrending. .
The two undertaking establishments at
Dayton were turned into morgues, whero
the mangled bodies were dressed and
prepared for delivery to their families.
All the men employed In this mine wero
residents of Dayton.
The Richland mine Is the property of
the Dayton Coal and Iron Company, com
posed of Glasgow capitalists. The com

paper controversy laat February, In which
Dr. Cooper and Dr. W. F. Green, rival
dentists, referred to each other in uncom
plimentary terms through the local press.
Borne of tne effusions were in verse. The
Gates brothers, who are • brothers-in-law
of Dr. Green, resented the articles by as
saulting Dr. Cooper, who sustained In
juries about the face and body during a
street flffht. Emery Gates struck the blows,
while Laud Gates was near and was ac
cused of being a party to the assault.
Virtue Is Its own reward— and no ques
tions asked.
It Is ridiculous to think that fruits and vege
tables raised on the elopes of the distant Pa
cific ehould compete at the very doors of Spain
with thos* produced in this country, yet the
fact la undeniable. How Is the mystery ex
plained? It Is simply this: Spain sends her
fruit and vegetables In the worst possible con
dition, so far as packing and transportation
are concerned; piled on wretched railway cars,
exposed to sun and rain and reaching Paris
from fourteen to seventeen days after their de
parture from Valencia; while the Callfornlana
offer their fruit in the came fine condition In
which It Is ricked from me trees. Their or
anges, apples, peaches and pears reach Paris,
after traversing 6000 miles, In a more attrac
tive and appetizing condition than ours after
* Journey of only 490 mllei.

Jived to see foreign wheat, after paying heavy
transportation taxes, protective duties and an

CALL BUREAU, 1408 G 8TREET, N.
w., WASHINGTON, May 27,-The recoff
nized excellence of California fruit*
abroad and their successful competition
with Spanish fruita appears from tho fol
lowing translation from a Valencia paper
received at the Slate Department from
Consul Bartleman of that city under date
or April 10, 1901:
Epanlsh product! are rapidly losing ground,
«.nd unless our methods be brought Into lln«
with those of progressive nations, our wines,
our oil, our fruiu and vegetables will b« con
flcmned to home consumption. We have been
astonished at the falling oft in our exports of
irult and fresh vegetables to France, England
and Germany. The decrease for France, not
withstanding the enormously enlarged con
sumption created by the Paris exposition, was
erroneously attributed to Italian competition.
The rivalry really comes from the United
States. California Is now supplying the
French. English and German markets with
freBh fruit and vegetables. The fruits are not
offered at lower prices than our own, but they
are presented neatly packed and In eplendld
condition.
Our Products Are Steadily
Crowding Out Those of
Europe.

SIDNBT,- Neb., May 27.-The Presiden
tial train made the third day's run on the
homeward Journed without incident. The
trip across Wyoming was at an average
elevation of 4000 feet, and at Bhorman,
Just before the train began. to descend tho
eastern slope of the Itocky Mountains, the
elevation exceeded 7000 feet. Brief stops
wero made for water and to change en
gines at Bawllns, Laratnle and Cheyenne,
Wyo., and Klmball arid Sidney, Neb. The
President made no < remarks at., any of
these places, but he appeared upon tho
rear platform and shook hands with some
of those nearest the car. There were
crowds at every station along the route
and every cattle ranch had its little group
of cowboys sitting bolt upright on their
horses and waving' their sombreros as the
train went by. . '
Mrs. McKinley is standing the trip well.
The weather has been exceedingly pleas
ant and that means much for her com
fort. " . .-.-! ¦ ¦ . , , "•. i ¦..-.
The Presidential train will reach Wash
ington Thursday, nxornlng at 7:30. It will
arrive at Omaha early to-morrow morn
ing and reach Chicago at 2 a. m. Wednes
day. The train will be transferred at
Chicago to the Pennsylvania line, and
proceed without further stops.
- The President and Cabinet received of
ficial information here that the Supreme
Court, had decided the Insular cases in ac
cordance with the contentions of the Gov
ernment. Naturally the President "and
Cabinet officers were elated, 1 although
they have never doubted that the decision
would be in favor of the Government. The
members of the Cabinet aboard the train
decline to express their opinions for pub
lication In advance of a perusal of the
text of the opinion.' .
