Editorial Comment.
Few men in Indiana are more cheerful or more liberal givers to Worthy objects than Mr. Crawford Fairbanks of Terre Haute. His latest benefaction is a gift of $50,000 to his home city for the erection of a public library to be named for his mother. Mr. Fairbanks is a man of large wealth, the fruits of enterprises and ability, and he is showing a commendable purpose to make the public a liberal sharer in its benefits.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

had married Hough on October 20. 1902. Formerly she lived with her family on Hamm street. She stated that, only a week after her marriage her husband had proposed the burglary plan and sh* acceded to it. The scheme was to go to apartment houses in the even ins r.nd if any of the rooms seemed to be dark a.nd deserted the burglar wife would knock on the door. Tf any one came some trivial and inconsequent rjuestion would be asked to avert suspicion, but should the family prove to be away Mrs. Hough said her husband would open the door with his false keys and the couple, would then ransack £he apartments. They had secured hundreds of dollars worth of plunder. The man is but 21, the woman 19 and very pretty.

WASHINGTON, ,1an. 26—Mail advices from the Philippines give an a» count of an interesting meeting between Aguinaldo and Mrs. Helen Goiiger of W. C. T. U. fame. When Mrs. Gouger reach ed Manila she sent word to the former," insurgent leader that she wished to meet him and the interview being grantj cd, she called at his home with her husband, several tourist friends and an interpreter. "Tell Mr. Aguinaldo/' Mrs. Gouger said to an interpreter, "that as Americans passing through the city, we feel it a great, honor to pay our compliments .to him. Tell him that we desire to express our appreciation and admiration of the brave fight he made for the independence of his country. "Tell Mr. Aguinaldo that I expect and hope before long to see him the president of the real Filipino republic with complete independence."
Mrs. Gouger explained to Aguinaldo that she was intimately acquainted with Mr. William Jennings Bryan, who, like Aguinaldo himself, has aspired to become president that she has exercised her efforts to elect him president before and expected to help do it in thefuture, that she corresponds with him and carried letters of recommendation from him.
To this Aguinaldo said: "I admire Mr. Bryan very much and appreciate fully the great assistance he gave us in the last insurrection. Is it really true that he will be elected president of the United States?"
Mrs. Gouger could not quite assure the Filipino of Mr. Bryan's success. The interview ended after Mrs. Gouger had praised Aguinaldo and his followers for the "heroic" conduct and again wished him at the head of "the independent Filipino republic."
BRITAIN AGREES TO LIFT
STREET RAILWAY STRIKE
The Union Men on the South Bend and Inter-Urban Lines Demand Certain Concessions.
SOUTH BEND, Ind., Jan. 2G.—Trouble between the Indiana Railway company and its employes reached a climax Sunday when a strike was declared. As 11 result the cities of South Bend, Mishawaka, Elkhart and Goshen are practically without street car service. During the day the company succeeded in running one car over each line on an hourly schedule, but all service stopped at o'clock last night. The strikers in South Bend and Mishawaka have, been orderly, but trouble was threatened at Elkhart, where an attempt was made to pull the crews off the interurban cars.
The strike was caused by the discharge of ten officers of the union by the company. The union asked that the men be re-instated, but this request Mas refused and the men then dccidcd to strike. The union now makes five demands, which it claims must be granted before the strike will be declared oft. The demands are: Nine hour day schedule adjustment of grievances by arbitration re-iristatement of ten discharged conductors and motormen recognition of the union by the. Indiana Railway company twenty cents an hour on city runs, $2.25 a day on inter-urban runs, and 25 cents an hour for overtime.
The United St.ates government may take a hand in the strike, as this line carires mail between South Bend and Goshen.

BLOCKADE

he has placed a limit to the time he "will wait for an answer and in consequence of this the representatives of the allies are pressing their governments for instructions. There is every reason to believe that all three nations will act in conjunction regarding the blockade. It has developed that Italy and Great Britain are tied hand and foot to Germany, not merely by the triple alliance, for the settlement of the Venezuelan trouble, but previous agreements of which this last alliance is simply a result. This leaves Germany the master of tfie field. Accordingly her answer is the 'answer of all and the others must aequesee or break from her. To do this would be to threaten the peace of all Europe, and it is doubtful if either Great Britain or Italy would take the risk.

SENSATION SPRUNG IN BRIBERY AFFAIR
{Continued from Page One.)
"The statements I made regarding Mr. Quigg to Mr. Lessler were not true." said Doblin in a clear voice. "When I saw Lessler here after the story had appeared in the papers he said to me: 'You've got to stand for that story.' 'I can't do it,' I said, 'then I am politically dead.' 'And you'll carry me with you,' I said. 'I've seen the speaker,' Lessler said. 'He will arrange it all right.' "He went out and came back. He said he had seen the speaker and that it would be all right. He told me to go before the sub-committee and substantiate his story. "The telegram from Lessler upon which I came to Washington was as follows: 'Take midnight train. Come to me. Want to see you. Keep this confidential.'
Signed) 'MONTE.' "After I had read the paper about the bribery charge, Lessler told me I would have to go before the committee, that they were friends of his, and that nothing more would come of it. I said I could not stand for the story, but he said I would have to. His secretary, Mr. Sun, came on later and told me to come on with him to the committee and he would get me in so no one would see me. When I got to the committee everybody was friendly and told me it was all right. Chairman toss gave me a cigar and I thought I was with Lessler's friends."
AFTER AN ENDOWMENT
An Ann Arbor Professor Justifies the Action of Rockefeller in Boosting the Price of Oil.
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Jan. 2Q.—Prof. F. M. Taylor, who occupies the chair ci political economy and finance in the university of Michigan, says that John D. Rockefeller is justified in raising the price of oil because of the benefits he confers upon society. "In America we do not levy taxes to secure money for big improvements," he says. "Private capital does it. When Mr. Rockefeller, for instance, raises the price of oil a few cents he forces it to contribute money for the collection of a great body of productive capital. "It is, of course, a system of voluntary despotism which we Americans submit to. Nevertheless social inequality is necessary to progress and necessary to collect, enough capital to run business. Mr. Rockefeller has more money than he can use, and thus he turns it into productive capital."
REVOLUTIONISTS JSUCCESSFUL
Castro's Forces Suffer a Humiliating Defeat and Commanding General Is Captured.
WfLLEMSTAD, Curacao, Jan. 26.— Advices from Puerto Cabella give the information that the Veneuelan revolutionsists have gained a decisive victory over the government forces in a battle, which was fought forty miles west of there. Scattered detachments of government soMifeVs ark airH'irig at Puerto Cabello from tlie scene of the battle. A later dispatch from Puerto Cabello says that the revolutionists captured the commanding general of Prfesideht Castro's troops during the engagement.
It is thought here that the revolutionary forces were under the command of General Aieda, who has been operating in the territory west of Puerto Cabello for some time. The battle is beleved to have been fought in the vicinity of the town of Felipe.
Only meagre details of the engagement have been received up to this time..

THE DAILY TRIBUNE, TERRE HAUTE, IND., MONDAY JANUARY. 26, 1903,
MINE BURNED
(Continued from Page One.)
to this city and taken to Ryan's, morgue. •He was the support of. his. mother with whom he lived on South Secotid street He was 31 years of age atntl had only been working, in the, naine a short tinjei James Blackburn, who is also in a critical condition, livfes with tfte Wesmers He was not employed Oct the mine, but had gone over- to apjply for wdrk, and had gone down in the mine, and was in the room with Wesmer. Tlie docto.\ say that-the chances for his recovery are doubtful.
Just before the last man was hoisted oy the rope, tlie head of an old man emerged from the shaft by the side o£ the windlass. He was pale, and was clinging to the timbers with a. desperation that showed lie was engaged in a struggle against death. He made an effort to crawl to the groud, but he was too weak, and his countenance turned to a weird picture of despair, for he knew that to loose his hold on the timbers, he would fall a distance of sixty feet and be dashed to death on the bottom. It was not to be, two strong men took hold of him and he was lifted out and led to a pile of timbers near the shaft. He wa£ George Hines, who had just came from a living death. After he had rested and inhaled a few breaths of fresh air, lie revived and was able to tell that the men in the part of the mine, a, mile back from the cage-landing, where lie worked were all alive, artd some of them were helping to care for the prostrate ones at the bottom. This was the first tidings that came to the surface that all were not dead, and it gave new hope to the weeping wives and children who were gathered about the shaft, enduring the painful expectency that the next to be hauled to the surface would ue him who was near and dear to them.
A little while after Mr. Hines made his appearance from the tomb, others began to come and slowly they climbed out until it was announced that the last man was on the surface. As fast as a man would reach the top conscious, his first inquiry would be after the welfare of his comrades who had been in the tomb with.him, and on hearing they were still alive, he would yell for joy.
Survivor Thanks Providence. When L. Z. Eller, a veteran miner, perhaps sixty years of age, was assisted to the ground after climbing up the buntin's, he stood for a moment, while his friends gathered about him and shook his hand. Then he bared his du3t begrimed head and looking toward the heavens offered up a prayer, thanking God that he and his comrades had been rescued. He said, "Oh, God, you have brought me and my comrade's back to earth and life, and, in the future I shall try and live a better life."
One peculiar feature of the affair is, that some of the men who had inhaled the gas and smoke, were drunk from its effect, and would stagger as though they were intoxicated when they stepped on the ground. Not only this, but some of them would laugh and yell, as though they were in the midst of a gleeful spree. They would remain in this condition until after they had been in the fresh air a few moments., when they would become weak and deathly sick. The sickness lasted only for a short time, but they were still very weak at last reports, and the physicians say that it will be several days before they will have completely recovered from the effects of their terrible experience.
Might Have Been Worse. The bookkeeper at the mine says that there vere but twenty nieijt went down in the mine this morning, though thirtytwo are usually employed there. Searches were sent all over the bottom and came back with the report that all were out. The men who were completely overcome, work on the ®ast side of the trap-door and' liaid no chance to escape from the smoke which was forced down from the surface. When their lamp? went out and they were awakened to a full realization of their danger, they could not find their way through thb dense smoke to the east side of the door, and becoming frantic at tliis state of affairs made a dash for the cage landing, where they could see a glerirn of light. This was the verjr worst move they could have made, as is evidenced by the fact that they were found prostrate near the landing. Hie men Xvorking west of the trap-door, after beihg warned of the fire and the danger, made ho attempt to fe^Cape to the cage-landing, knowing that sueh an effort would be little short' of suicide. All realized that there was no other air-shaft, and that unless the fire was extinguished and the smoke cleared in a reasonable time, thfey were doomed to death.
Rescued Miner Talks.
George Hines, the man who first climbed out bf the shaft wa^ weak and in a high state of excitement when seen by a Tfriburie reporter.' When asked to tell something about the sensation off oeing buried alive, Tie Said: "I don't believe th£t ctftii It is Sensation too terrible to be properly described. It seemed to me like I was down iff there: a month, and during all that time I thought that each brea,th would be my last. It looked like sure death and' honestly wished that the end would: come soon, Tlie suspense was somethihg terrible. I knew that-my wife and children were at the mouth of the shaft, crying and waiting for me, and this knowledge only added to the torture. I guess the other boys all felt as I 'did, and I will say here that when I heard. Bill Broadhurst saying that all was well, I tell you it was-the sweetest music I ever heard in my life."
There were two mules down in the mine, and it is supposed they were suffocated, as they w«uld not have the intelligence to seek safety. It is prkctically certain that alf tlie men were rescued. Tie mine property is a totaj loss and if the mine is ever used again a new-, tipple will have to be bnilt.
It is believed that damage-suits will grow out of the- fire as-., the.: miners: in
HHP
sist that the operators have not complied with the requirements, of the law., in haying a "man-way" leading out .of the shaft- The law requires that a manway shall be placed in all shafts where h&i&tirig engines are used, and the miners say that if the law had been complied with in this respect, all of the men could have escaped without injury. The clause, the miners say, was put in the law as a precaution against such accidents as occurred. The men about the mine this morning say that the state mine inspector "will be notified of the facts, and it is more than likely prosecutions will come along with the damage suits that may be filed.
A crowd of men gathered about Ryan's morgue as soon as It was known, that the body of Wesmer had been taken there, but no one was allowed to see the remains. After they had been embalmed they were taken direct to his home.
The features of. the dead man were in excellent state of preservation. Only a few scratches were to be seen on his face. He was not discolored or bruised.

NEW YORK, Jan. 26.—Those New York brokers, led by Wm. M. Townsend & Bro. and their clients, who follow the Armour banner in wheat pit deals, and have been preaching the big advance to their clients since last November, while practicing what they preached by purchasing the staple on every recession, have already cleared up more than $300,000.

Mr. Wm. M. Townsend, the acknowledged authority on wheat, "when seen at his offices in the produce exchango building, said: "It is not our fault that all the investment-seeking public is not in this big May advance. We have had inside information .rom the start, and have outlined it freely in our weekly market letters right straight along. The letters have set forth the situation calmly and plainly, and the hundreds of strangers who have written to us for them have received every line of Instructive detail as we have received it. "We are kept posted every day and shall continue to keep our friends and clients posted. I am as certain as of anything in my life that Mr. Armour will soon have May wheat at the dollar mark."

DEATH DELIEVES HIM o»e Cent A Word
JAMES BRADSHAW WHO WAS 'FROZEN DIED TODAY
ESCAPED WHILE DELIRIOUS
Wandered Around in the Snow and Both His Feet Were Frozen— Exposure Hastened Death.
James W. Bradsbaw, aged 26, died yesterday evening as a result of blood poisoning, at the home of his father, Willfam Bradshaw, No. 451 North First street. Some time ago Mr. Bradsluisv slipped on the ice and in falling laecratod his light knee. The injury did not seem of a serious nature, but blood poisoning sot in a week ago last Saturday. Sincc the poisoning began Mr. Bradshaw has been delirious mtic-h of the time and one of the coldest nights of last week rose from his bed and wandered around the neighborhood in his sleep. He was dressed only in his. night clothes, and these afforded little protection from the cold wintry night.
It is not known how long he was gone, but when lie finally returned both feet were frozen. He returned wearing a pair of overalls which lie had secured from some unknown place, but his feet were bare. The exposure hastened his death and added to his sufferings and death came as a relief last evening. Bradshaw is survived by his parents and three brothers.
Mrs. Mary Yost.
The Evansville Courier contains the following account of the death of Mrs. Mary Yost, formerly Miss Mary Mahaney, of this city:
Mrs. Mary Yost fell from her chair while sitting in her home in Eigth street Friday night and died. Death was caused by heart failure, from which the deceased had been a sufferer for some time.
The members of the family were gathered around the deceased when death called lier.
Mrs. Yost had1 been a sufferer from heart disease for over a year or more but was in her usual health when stricken with the fatal attack. She was able to sit with the family and none of those with her at the time had any premonition of the sad occurrence. Dr. Will Gilbert was summoned immediately after the attack, but when he reached the home the mother had passed away. There was no pain connected with her end.
Mrs. Yost was 35 years of age and was the wife of Louis Yost, the well-known engineer on the E. and T. H. railroad. Her death was entirely unexpected and was a great shock to her many friends and acquaintances. She leaves beside her husband, three small children.
The remains were received in the city today and the fflneral will be held tomorrow. Short services were conducted at the Church of Assumption in Evansville this morning.
Smallpox Developments.
There were no new developments in the smallpox situation today. The fact that Sunday and today have both passed without additional cases of the disease making their appearance is pieasing to the board of health as it undoubtedly means that the epidemic is under control. The house at No. 312 North Fourth street was released from quarantine this evening. It was reported this morning that an unknowh man w^s walking about the streets badly broken out with smallpox. He was not found by the board of- health.
