Richmond Enters the Indiana-Ohio Aggregation, the Ohio State League Is Almost Sure to Cry "Outlaw."

OUINN TALKS WITH JESSUP OF PROSPECT. U Was Pointed Out That Richmond Objected to the High Salary Limit of the Proposed New Circuit. President Bobby Quian of the Ohio State League, called on Manager .Teswip yesterday afternoon over the Ion; distance telephone and inquired about the local baseball situation. He was informed that, the backers of the Richmond baseball club objected to the liigh salary limit established for the Ohio State league and that if the Indiana-Ohio league was reorganized at tue meeting held here Monday, Richmond would accept a franchise in that organization. President Quinn informed Jesstip that while he was in Hamilton men Interested in placing a league team there Informed him that they would do nothing until after the Richmond meeting Monday. President Quinn seemed to be much disappointed about the Hamilton situation. He said that notwithstanding reports to the contrary. Springfield would have a team in the Ohio State league. The street car company in that city he said, had given $l,"o toward organizing the flub and that Mayor Burnett would furnish the remainder of the financial backing. Lima and Zanesville. he said were sure to have franchises in 1he Ohio State League. It is probable that in (he event Richmond decides not to become a member of the Ohio State league the powers-that-bo in that organization will wage a hot. fight against the Indiana-Ohio league. Promoters of the Ohio State league, are determined to have Richmond enter that, organization and have applied to the national minor leagues association for protection for this city. In the event that this protection is granted they will probably make an effort to have the I. O. league declared at. "outlaw" if this city is included in that circuit.

Inquiries relative to civil service examination have been more numerous at the Richmond postoffice during the past few weeks than ever before. There are two reasons for this, according to the postmaster. The principal reason being that many factory men and others have been out of work for long periods. The other is that the pay of federal employes has bee a increased and those holding positions are assured of permanent employment during good behavior. There win be no examinations in Kichmond other than those for place in local postal service this spring. The eoniniisdon will make a further announcement of examinations February 1.

Mack declared the New York delegation would be for Bryan in spite of the attempt to start a boom there for Governor Johnson of Minnesota. "'Indiana is for Bryan." said Taggart. "Efforts to boom other candidates have not changed the situation. We are going to make splendid arrangements for cenventiou at Denver," ho continued. MINERS IN MAD RUSH Traverse Seven Miles of Subterranean Passages to Escape Flames. Monongahela. Pa., Jan. 18. Miraculously escaping death by cremation or suffocation, or being blown to pieces by an explosion, where the miners employed in the Catsburg mine of the Monongahela River Consolidated Coal and Coke company made their way through the dark hCids for a distance of seven miles, and finally reached the open air. Without lights to guide then, and given up as dead, the men battled for five hours with Are, and when they reached the surface their faces were blackened, clothes torn and all were severely bruised from stumbling in their flight for safety. Fortunately, the mine contained very little gas, or another mine disaster would have been recorded in Western Pennsylvania. The mine was fired some time during the day by a "blow-out" shot, and when the fire was discovered at 9 o'clock at night by the 40 men all escape to the surface through the Monongahela entry was cut off. Momentarily expecting an explosion. with its horrible conseouences the! men started, panic stricken, for the! entry at Charleroi. seven miles away, i in ihi. r- t,Kio,i fn ' v us. n m iii iiixr r-i uiu uirti aim nrn. but only to jump up again and continue their mad rush for safety. The experience was probablv the most ! frightful a body of coal miners has ever had. When the men reached the surface at 2 a. m. a majority of them were sobbing like children.

Engineers are working frantically to fill the huge holes drilled in the earth with cement in an effort, as yet futile, to fortify the lateral supports. The engineers predict it is a matter of a few hours only before the dam will topple over and the huge wall of water behind it will rush down in the village. ' Gets New Telescope.

LOAN CERTIFICATES IN N. Y. This Was Total Amount Issued by Clearing House During the Time of the Financial Stringency. GREAT GAIN IN CASH SINCE NOVEMBER SHOWN. Clearing Houses Were Able to Convert a Deficit of Over Fifty Million to a Surplus of Over Six Million. New York. January IS. The loan certificates issued by the New York clearing house during the recent financial stringency reached a total of !?S7,oooxio according to a statement piepared by President Alexander Gilbert, of the Clearing House Association. Of this amount, however, only .71,H.oin in certificates was put into actual use. The movement to retire these certificates began immediately after the crisis of the financial situation was passed, and has progressed rapidly since. By far the greater proportion of the certificates. President Gilbert says, have now been retired. This is the first public, statement, tnat has been made of t lie extent to which the clearing house resorted to i certificates to prevent the banks being drained of their cash and to prevent the banks embarrassments which might have resulted from the continued requirement of cash payments at the clearing house when the recent panic was at its height. In 1S!.', when the clearing house issued loan certificates, the amount taken out. was S-l 1 ,i;m . m m of more than $:;'. hm.m in under the amount of the issue of 1'.h7. Mr. Gilbert makes the point, however, that so large has been the increase in bank deposits that whereas in lv.i;; the loan certificates amounted to about 1 per cent, of the deposits. the certificates in 1'.m7 amounted to less than ." per cent, of trie total deposits. The Gain in Cash. The great gain in the cash made by the banks since the end of November is shown by the fact. that, within the seven weeks, from November ''." to January 11. the clearing-house banks wore able to convert a deficit of more than !?."" lw.iustm into a surplus of over .".- imo.ooo and at the same time retire the certificates. The issuance of these certificates. Mi. Gilbert says, furnishes the best object lesson of an emergency currency, one that is perfectly secure and one which can be put into effect without j any complicated bank machinery. On this point. Mr. Gilbert says: 'All ' that is needed to adapt such a system to our requirements is development. house committees of the three central reserve cities, an emergncy currency plan could be evolved that could be in harmony with our national bank ing system and be less subject to criticism and opposition than any other system which has yet been proposed. PLAN TURNED OUT MONUMENTAL "FROST" Pittsburgers Don't Like "Pay-as-you-enter" Idea. j Pittsburg. Jan. IS.
