SAY DUftBiN HAD NO PLAN TO RELIE VE COAL CRISIS

SUGGESTED CO-OPERATION

Local Mine Owners Hort\e From the Indianapolis Meeting—Mo Imme"diatef' Effect is Expected.

Tli.e meeting of t,lie Indiana operators,, yesterday in the oflice of Governor l)nrl)in, was larjrely attended and the coal situation was thoroughly discussed. The governor did not have any special scheme to propose as to bow the conditions could be changed, but evidently bad. in railing the meeting, only the one object of urg fng co-operation among the operators, to hurry shipment as much as possible of coal intended for domestic .consumption. A committee^of liircQ from the senate and one.of the same number from the house, \vere present1he confer.f'.V.'':

r'

The gathering wa* forma!, Governor 3)urbin presiding. After a few words in •which he expressed liis purpose in calling the meeting, by saying that it was to discuss the present shortage of fuel, and to formulate if possible, some plan /where-by the situation might be relieved 3 eft the subject open for discussion by •the operators.

J. Smith Talley of this city, was the •first speaker, and gave a short address tin' which he outlined as briefly as possible the status of the coal industry at the present time. He was questioned by the governor in regard to particular phases of the situation in which he (the governor) was interested.

After "Mi*. Talley others of the dealers "were called upon and nearly every one of the twenty-three present were questioned by the executive. These questions were largeiv statistical in their nature. The first one was "What concern are you the h'ead of?" and then here is your mine located"Along what railroad '"What is your monthly production in tons?'' "What do you regard as being responsible for the shortage? "Have the railroads found themselves especially unable to care for the coal business in your district?"

These questions invariably called, for a discussion of the subject by the men questioned, and much was brought out, very little of it, however, being new. The members of the legislature who were present asked many questions.

Nothing whatever was said about, the recent indictment by the grand jury in Chicago, and the reasons, as outlined by that body for their action, were not drawn into the matter. The meeting was in no way a hostile affair in which the operators were called to answer charges of wrong dealing, but was rather a friendly conference to get at the facts so that the situation might be relieved The outcome of the discussion was that the railroads, although doing all in their power, to move the product as rapidly as possible were the cause, never-the-'ess for the shortage, because of the physical impossibility of their task.

Mr. Hugh Sliirkie of the Bruillet Coal company, when interviewed this morning stated that the meeting had not accomplished anything of special importance and said that nothing can be done further than what is being accomplished now, to relieve the coal shortage—this because the rail roads cannot haul any more coal than they are now. ,T. Smith Talley stated that there was likely to be one good outcome of the meeting, that of prevailing on the railroads to give preference for a time, to coal for domestic consumption, over that, for the use of the big industries. The mee.ting he said was purely friendly and was not for the purpose of placing the operators "on the carpet.''

RUMORS OF BRIBERY

CONGRESSMAN LESSEE,R SAYS HE WAS APPROACHED

OFFERED .FIVE THOUSAND

He Claims, If He Would Look After Submarine Boat Company's Interests.-

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—Congressman Lessler of New York, who has announced to the house committee on naval affairs of which he is a member that he has been approached with an offer of $5,000 bribe for his vote in connection with a recommendation from the committee for an appropriation for more submarine boats, refuses to discuss the charges today. "It is a committee matter," he said. "I have nothing to say about it." "The investigation ordered by the committee and placed in the hands of a subcommittee, only adds to the mystery as if is to be carried on in star chamber sessions. How definite Mr. Lessler's charge is cannot therefore be learned. Vice President A. B. Frost, of the Holland submarine torpedo boat company says Lessler cannot mean.his concern because Frost is its only representative here and he certainly had not offered Mr. Lesseler or any one else $5,000 or any, other amount for votes for the appropriation of the character described.

The members of the sub-committee who are to continue the investigation of the charges today are: Foss. of Illinois, chairman of the committee: Butler (Hep. Pa.) Taylor (Rep. O.): Wheeler, (Dem. Ky.) and Rixey, (Dem. Ya.).

DEADLOCK NOT BROKEN

TOOK SIX BALLOTS ON COUNTY ATTORNEY MATTER

AND NO CHDljCE WAS MADE

Holmes Holds Out for Caviits, Blocksom for Pugh and Boatman Votes for Hamill.

The developments "in the office of the county commissioners today only served to make more rigid the deadlock which exists in the matter of the appointment of a county attorney. Six ballots were taken by the three commissioners this afternoon and finally the board adjourned without making a choice in the matter. Commissioner Holmes remains steadfast to Cavins'" cause and voted for him on each ballot. Jilocksom is equally faithful to Horace Pugh and voted for his man pn each ballot. The Democratic member of the board, Mr. Boatman, persists in voting for Carson Hamill who is serving in that capacity at present. It only remains for Boatman to take up the cause of one of the Republican candidates and the matter will be settled.

CMS NEARLY COLLIDE

PASSENGERS GIVEN SCARE ON SOUTH SEVENTH STREET

MOTORMAN MADE MISTAKE

Then Brakes Refused to Work a.nd the People in the Cars Were Alarmed.

A serious street car collision was nirrowly averted last night at 11:30 o'clock, on South Seventh street. The reason assigned for the averted trouble was that a north bound car had run beyond the switch at which it was supposed to pass, the car south bound, .and consequently the two met at a wrong part, of the track.

The story as told by a. passenger was to the effect that the last car south for. the night, had just left the switch at Deming street to go on to the Oak street switch, where it was due to pass the north bound car. This car, however had run by the switch, and the two unexpectedly met. Seeing the light of the other car the motdrman going north thought that it was waiting at Oak street and did not discover his mistake until he was right on it. To make matters worse when the mistake was discovered the brake of one of the cars refused to work. Only by reversing the other car thereby disabling it so that it could iiot run any farther were the cars prevented from crashing into each other. The passengers made a rush to the door but no one*was hurt in the scramble to get out.

Rich Men's Homes in New York. Private houses are now being built in Manhattan for rich men, and for them only. Land is so valuable, and the standard of living is increasing so rapidly, that it is impracticable to erect a cheap dwelling house in the center of New York City. Even now see an occasional modest frame dwelling house on Manhattan Island, on a side street or far uptown, but these reminders of a less pretentious age are becoming scarce. There was a time only about a. dozen years ago when an average of 700 new dwellings yearly was recorded, the average cost of these being from $15,000 to $17,000. In 1900, on the other hand, Only 122 plans for residences were filed, but the cost had risen meanwhile to an average of $35,000. Within the last two years the upward movement has been accelerated, so that the average cost in 1001 was 56,800, and in 1902' it was $66,60p. In the fashionable Fifth avenue section an average expenditure of no less tftan $96,900 has been reached."

CHILD BADLY BURNED

LITTLE PARNELEE HOAG CAME .^NEAB BEING CREMATED

MOTHER'S HEROiC RESCUE

CHildlreft Were Playing About' Stove When the Victim's Clothing Became Ignited.

Parnelee G. Iioag. the live-year-old daughter of Harry P. Hoag and wife living at No, 1252 First Linden street was frightfully burned while at play yes terday afternoon. The child's cloth ing caught fire and had it not been for the presence of mind and heroism of the mother the child would have been ere mated.

Parnelee, with some other children was playing on a lounge, when the child left the others and went to the stove to stir the lire, the mother being in the lot at the rear of the house, hanging out the weeks wash. While the child was near the stove its clothing caught fire and the next instant was in a blaze The children set up a scream and Par nelee, completely enveloped in flames, ran through the house to the rear door. Mrs Hoag, hearing the screams, ran for the house and met the child at the door She seized it and throwing it to the floor, gathered up a piece of old carpet which was lying near and the next instant had the child and blaze buried be neath it. When the flames had been smothered it was found that the clothing had been literally burned off the little one. Neighbors hearing the cries ran to the assistance. Dr. Frisz was hurriedly called and it was found that the child was frightfully burned about the shoulders and trunk of the body. While the burns will be excrutiatingly painful, it is not believed they will result fatally, as it is not believed by the physician that she had inhaled any of the blaze or smoke. is certain that the presence of mind and the courage of the mother saved the lne of Parnelee and perhaps others, for had she attempted to take the child with its burning clothing out of the house, the wind would have fanned the blaze, and. no' doubt, her own clothing would have been ignited and doubtless both would have been burned to death.

WOULD HELP ROCKEFELLER

Local Remedy Company Sends Multi' Millionaire a Cure for His Affliction. llather an interesting thing today was the forwarding by the Tiona Oil Co., to John D. Rockefeller, a box of M.~ *s Emulsion in answer to the latter gentleman's offer to pay ft million dollars to any one who would cure liim of stomach trouble. "Mr. Rockefeller's sickness has resulted largely from his extra-ordinarilv active life in a business way—that is in soiling oil. Crude oil has been every where, about him, and now it is being sent to him for a trial in curing him of his sickness. If it should do this he would owe much to crude petroleum, not only his fortune, but his life. Mr. Milks maintains that if stomach trouble is Mr. Rockefeller's complaint, the emulsion will cure him as it has in no instance, as vet failed.

Chinese Measurement Proposed. The federal immigration bureau is reof the Pertillion system of minutes and exact physical measurements to Chinese who ^eek to enter the United States.

The claim is made that in defiance of the rigorous immigration laws the enterprising Celec-tials do manage to get through our ports somehow, largely by the use of certificates issued to those who are legally entitled to enter, but which are alleged to be transferred in frequent instances to other individuals besides their original holders. The expedient of photography has been tried to prevent this practice, but sopie of the inspectors declare that the Chinese look so much alike to the average American oye that these are of little use.

Thp Beritillion system, intelligently used, has boen found useful in the identification of criminals who seek to change their appearance, since it takes account pf physical peculiarities which would otherwise pass unnoticed and -affords a sure record which can be referred to whenever doubt arises. At the same time, it seems, hardly probable that the volume of illicit Chinese immigration is sufficiently large to warrant its use in this instance. We do not think of applying, it. to. individuals of any other nationality, unless they were charged with serious crime, and if an honest attempt is made to enforce the present laws prohibiting Chinese immigratipn the facilities which are now provided for that purpose should be adequate, :r_
