before, being plncwl On the stretcher. The
temperature of the thine which In higher
tl an 90 degree,, csusod by the fire, as yet
. unextinguished, undoubtedly was the
rnm el the warmth of the body. Wild
scerfps followed the carry Ills' th nian
to the hospital car,
"They alive." came the cry from all
sides,, and. a rush that almost carried the
beilrers off their feet began. The soldiers
vera hurried to the spot and forced back
the crowd,, while physicians and .nurses
Torr over the oody of the man In the
ta(L. The work of holntlng the other vic
tim, to the surface did not cease. As the
first loivj. of three stretchers, their burdens
ar.d their carriers reached the top, the
crowd surged ba?k to the car a few yards
away. Scores ' 'bent over the bodjes, but
even the unpractlced glances of those not
of the hiedlc.tl profession saw at once
that there was ho mistake as to the death
of those on the stretchers.
Twcntr-Thre Bodies Taken Out.
The work of taking out the bodies con
tinued until twenty-two had been carried
from the' shaft Ao the temporary morgue.
Before the last' of those taken from the
mine had been placed! In the morgue, the
body of the unknown man had been re
moved from the hOHpltal car to the place
along side those of his former comrades.
The recuers who carried up the twenty
tliree bodies said there was evidence that
the men had walled themselves In for sev
eral days, but had emerged to seek food
or water and had met death In the black
damp. ' -
At a point beyond where the searchers
had gone, several declared they oould see
the shattered blocking of a pocket whert
the men had. taken refuge. The bodies art
scattered along the gallery for many yards
and the men who found them believed the
vlrtlms collapsed from weakness or as
phyxiation before going fifty yards toward
the. entrance. Home of the bodies were
burned, and it Is probable that of the
twenty-three not all had been Inmates of
the pocket. The existence of the refuge
was denied by other members of the party,
who asserted that they had seen no evi
dence of It.
Dr. L. l. Hw-e visited today all the sur
vivors who were taken from the mine Sat
urday and reported 'them gradually recov
' effiig. - ' I '
It la still considered Inadvisable to give
the 'patients other than the lightest food.
This is a great disappointment to the
women who had dreamed of feeding them
bounteously to make amends for their
seven , days of enforced fasting. Mrs.
Charles Dovan, whose son still remains in
the mine, living or dead, visited the mouth
ot the shaft soon after daybreak today
and at been her custom for a week knelt
down ' and prayed. Later she wandered
toward her home, where she died shortly
afterward.
DOBBINS CASE WITH JURY

( J'lnCo I have heard my friend Hess call

rnrrasm, referring to an tnadvertant slip
"of the torlfrue on the part of the county
attorney oft the day before in his opening
argument.
The most serious portion of Tlnley's argument,-
amounted to a declaration that
tho paper bearing an address purporting
to have been, given to Ballew by Dobbins
at his Kansas City home was not genuine.
On- the wltnos 'stand Ballew had sworn
that this was given to him by Dobbins

charge may properly rest I will see that
he or they are brought to Justice."
The, attorney general t spoke highly In
praise of County Attorney Hess and com
plimented him on the conduct of the case,
in the course of his argument.
Attorney Hart's Talk.
"This Is In fact the case of T. W. Bal
lew against John R. Dobbins, not that of
the state of Iowa as It appears on the
face of the record," exclaimed Charles
Harl, attorney for the defendant, on trlsl
for larceny, as steerer for the Mabray
gang, In district court at Council Bluffs.
The argument for the defense began at
the opening morning session of Judge
Green's court. The Indications are that
the case will now go to the Jury tonight.
Attorney General Byera will close for the
state.
The defense was true to Its promise In
taking up T. W. Ballew, complaining wit
ness. Attorney Harl mada an impassioned
and bitter arraignment or the Princeton
banker.
"The attorney general of the state of
Iowa Is here to aid the prosecution. He
has come her to assist J. J. Hess, the
county attorney, who has made such an
enviable record In the prosecution of crim
inals. There have been men tried here for
the most henious of crimes, the most
bestial of assaults, but never before In the
history of this county has the attorney
general, the chief law officer of the state,
come down from Des Moines, leaving an
Important session of the supreme court to
aid In the trial of a criminal case.
"Back of this, gentlemen of the Jury. Is
T. W. Ballew. This is the case of T. W.
Ballew against John R. Dobbins. The
indirect Influence of T. W. Ballew Is re
sponsible for the presence of the attorney
general here."
Ballew Not Content.
"It seems as though Ballew would have
been satisfied with his but no, net, hires
the most able criminal lawyer In south
western Iowa. James P. Organ, to assist
in the prosecution.
"The voice you hear In this case Is that
Of Attorney General Byers ' and County
Attorney Hess, but back of It looms J. W.
Ballew. Back In the shadows has ben
the cold, Incisive abilities and genius of
this John P. Organ. These men are the
tools of the spite of T. W. Ballew."
Harl In opening his argument defined to
the Jury his view of the Issues of the case,
making much of the point that larceny
and larceny only was the charge made by
the state In this case. ,
"The Indictment charges that John R.
Dobbins did take, steal and carry away
money to the value of $30,000. the property
of T. W. Ballew. This and this only are
you to decide.
"Ballew has made himself an issue In
this case and we accept the challenge.
"Mr. Hess haa said that Mr. F.allew got I
Into the deal Involved In this case to re
form Dobbins; to help this little woman
win her husband away from the gambling
tabre, for sympathy for her. God help
Mrs. ' Dobbins, If she Is committed' to the
eare of this man.
"If he had wanted to help Mrs. Dobbins
win her husband away from the gaming
table, would he have gone into a forced
horse race and encourged the perfidy of
an untrue secretary?"
Mrs. Dobbins Weeps.
Harl made many comparisons of the va
rious "mikes" who testified in the case
and centered his attack on T. W. Ballew.
When ho made his closing appeal for tho
raving of his client from the penitentiary,
Mrs. Dobbins broke Into tears.
Mr. Harl concluded shortly before noon
and Emmet Tinley Degan his address. He
placed emphasis on the attitude he wished
the Jury to assume toward the testimony
of the mlkc witnesses put on by the state
to show conspiracy.
"You have boen trying J. C. Mabray since
Wedncs-lay morning. It Is John R. Dob
bins whose fate Is in your hands, not
John C. Mabray's."
The argument of the defense was much
engaged In explaining the letter of Intro
duction through which W. H. Martin of
the Mabray race machine was Introduced
to T. W. Ballew, ;he victim. This letter
and the testimony of Ballew stood, the
lawyers said, as the only evidence which
could have bearing on Dobbins. Ballew, de
clared Harl, was impeached by his own
statements. The letter he held did not
show Dobbins to have known more of
I the schema 'nan Ballew did five minutes
auer ne met Martin.
j The Instructions to the Jury are In the
)iocf of composition and will be ready
tor suDmmsion tonight.
The court room Is packed with Interested
people from Counoll Bluffs and Omaha.
More than a scare of wjmen are sitting
through tha argument. Some of the mikes
are lingering to hear the oratorical fire
works and be in at the finish.
AUornew Harl may leave for Denver to
day on account of the Illness of his mother-in-law.

LIXfOl.N. Nov. 22. (Special.) Figures
In the State Railway commission office
show that another railroad, which Is
objecting bit lower passenger and freight
rates Inw Nebraska, has made money un
der the new rates, in fact, more money
than under the old rates. The latest rail
road looked up Is the Minneapolis A
Omaha, whose net earnings per mile for
the year ending In June. 1907, Just after
the lower rates went Into effect, was
ll.SM.M, and for the year ending In June.
1!09, when all freights and passengers were
moved at the lower rates, 1.9.5. The
gross earnings In Nebraska amounted to
H."2E,2S8. for the 1!W7 period, and I1.S17.
"3M2 for 1W9. The passenger earnings for
the 1907 period amounted Jo I422.D43.M, and
for 1909, MSH.3M.M. The total cost of oper
ation amounted to 1 1.199, 581. 95 In 1907, and
for 1909. $l,231.mil.
The Minneapolis & Omaha Is one of the
complainants which Is attacking the re
duced rates In the federal court.
New Man on Pay Roll.
The State Historical society though it
has stopped work on Its $W,000 building,
which Its officers expect the state to pay
for, has not stopped spending money by
any means. During the last few months
Mr. Albert Watklns has been added to the
list of those drawing pay at the rate of
$125 a month af "historian." C. 9. Paine
draws his $125 4 month as secretary of the
society; A. E. Sheldon drowns his 1108 33
each month for being director of the legis
lative reference department.. In his vouch
ers for expense money there Is an Itm
of $1.60 for a book, "Career of Journalist."
Another item Is a book, "Primary Elec
tions,' for $1.15. Then comes "extra labor"
for $2. Whether Mr. Sheldon did the extra
labor or hired someone to do It the
voucher does not show and there Is no re
ceipt attached to show that the $2 was
paid to any on else. And there aie a lot
of lesser lights drawing pay.
As the director of the legislative depart
ment, Mr. Sheldon assisted In drawing
many of the bills which were Introduced
In the late democratic legislature of fond
memory.
Expensive Bnlldina; Planned.
Mr. Paine has now served notice on sev
eral of the state officers that he desires to
look over their records and cart awny to
the cellar, which is now, all that hns been
constructed of the magnificent historical
building that Is to be. He has 'already
filled his rooms at the state university with
files of practically all the newspapers ot
the state and he Is getting from the state
some fifty copies of all publications, so
there is some doubt even If the proposed
structure will be large enough to contain
the matter he is getting together.
In the meantime a well known architect
who haa examined the. plans for the new
historical building said they called for a
structure costing at least $1,000,000.
Until a new state house Is built, Governor
Shallenberger and others will oppose any
further work on the new historical build
ing. The governor believes there will be
plenty of room in the new capltol to house
the historical records of value that will be
gathered by Mr. Paine and his associates.
Newton to File Charges.
Kellx Newton, deposed bookkeeper at the
Lincoln Insane asylum, wlss shortly file
formal charges acalnst Superintendent
Woodard and request the Board of Public
Lands and Buildings to give him a hearing.
Inasmuch as several contractors who fur
nish supp les to the asylum sought his dis
charge some members of the board are In
clined to the belief that possibly Newton
has a story to tell of some Importance.
Newton has complained to the postofflee
department that letters written by Inmates
of the asylum have In some Instances been
destroyed and not mailed. The law pro
vides that all letters written by Inmates
of Insane esylums must be mailed at '.east
once a week by the asylum authorities and
that writing material and facilities for
writing letters must be furnished the in
mates and that stamps must also be given
them. The asylum draws $M worth of
stamps ench month for the use of Inmates.

the state 44 per cent. The following muni

Governor Gives
Lawyers Chance
of Intervention
Requisite Authority Bestowed Upon
Attorney General in Creisjhton
Will Case.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 22. (."pedal.) Governor
Shallenberger has authorised Attorney
General Thompson to Intervent In behalf
Of the state In the case wherein benefic
iaries of the will of the late John A. Crelgh
ton fighting the bequest to the working
girls' home.
Should this bequest be knocked out on
the grounds there la no representative ot
such an organization to accept the money,
then the heirs to the residue of the estate
would profit to the amount of some $10,000.
When the case was called In Omahs, c.
J. Smyth asked the attorney general to In
tervene on behalf of the public and this
was done. At a lengthy hearing before
Judge Reddiek and Judge Estell, so Mr.
Smyth wrote to Mr. Thompson, It was held
that the Judges had some doubt of the
right of the attorney genera,! to intervene,
but if the governor would authorize him to
Intervene there was no question to his
authority. The same kind of a letter was
written to the governor who at once auth
orised the attorney general to act,
Mr. Thompson, however holds that It is
not necessary for him to secure authority
from the governor to appear In such cases.
He holds that he has the right under the
law and decision1 of the supreme court in
the case of the State against the Pacific
Express company and he so Informed Mr.
Smyth. In that case the court said:
"Irrespective of what the powers of the
attorney general might have been at com
mon law, as a law officer of the crown,
under this provision, the power and the
duty of determining when an action shall
hi brought by the state or In the in tercet
of the fitate this court devolved upon the
attorney general as fully and to as great
an etxent as upon the governor or any
other officer of the executive department.
When, In the exercise of the power thus
conferred upon him by the constitution
and the law, the attorney general deter
mines that the Interest of the state re
quire an action to be brought In this court,
no question Can arise as to his authority
to Institute or mantan the ault. If t la a
matter In which the state is Interested,
or relating to the executive department.'
The attorney holds the Interest of the
public Is at stake In the case and there
fore he Insisted ,upon Intervening on behalf
of the public.

SAN DOMINGO, Nov. 22. Colonel John
Jacob Astor's yacht Nourmahal snlled from
here November la nunng the hurricane.
The captain of an Knronean steamer ar
riving here today reports that he saw the
wreck of a steamer lying between the
Islands of Catallna and anna. These
Islands lie In the path of vessels proceed
ing east from here for Porto Rico,.
A revenue cutter has been ordered to
sail Immediately for the scene of the wreck.
TAMPA. Fla.. Nov. 22. A direct wireless
messsge from San Juan save Astor's yacht
Is not there.
KEY WEST, Fla., Nov. 22 It lr. prac
tically certain that no further r.Ire'ess
communication will be established by the
station her with San Juan during the day.
This means that It will be Tuesday morn
ing, possibly between midnight and Tues
day at daybreak when the wireless service
Is at Its best, than any positive news can
be received concerning the Nourmahal.
The operator here has been on duty con
stantly for the last twenty-four hours and
has sent calls to every station within his
zone. Every other service Is made sec
ondary to the.t of gaining Information re
lative to the Nourmaha!.
It was shortly after 4 o'clock this morn
ing that the naval wireless operators at
tempted to communicate with San Juan.
There was a feeble response from San Juan
station and later there was such Improve
ment that Key West station was able to
send a considerable number of messages
addressed to Colonel Astor and his friends.
The wlress communication continued un
til shortly before t o'clock when atmo
spheric conditions destroyed wireless
waves.
It Is anticipated the Investigation of the
submerged vessel off the north coast of
Cuba will be made some time today or
early tomorrow morning. This vessel Is
on the shoals Just off E'.bow Key and
should be found easily.
Captain Schlalkler of the German steamer
Wotan la positive that he saw three masts,
and that corresponds with' the Nourmahal.
He declared the masts were not those of a
schooner as they were too close together
and of smaller shape.
Former Report Donbted.
Failure of confirmation through Key
West this morning by means of the only
present Intact method of communication
with the West Indian islands, the govern
ment wireless telegraph system, has had
the effect of casting doubt on the correct
ness of the report received yesterdsy from
the steamer Caracas at Wlllemstad. Cura
cao, which said the Nourmahal arrived off
San Juan November 14, and was safely
anchored In the harbor there on the 15th.
Reason for doubting the correctness of this
report Is two fold. In the first place, the
operator at the government wireless sta
tion at San Juan declared early today that
he knew nothing of the presence of the
Nourmahal and that If It were in port he
doubtless would have known It. At the
same time the San. Juan operator volun
teered the information that there was at
preaent a large steam yacht In San Juan
harbor, but that It belonged to a Cuban.
This vessel might easily have been mis
taken by the chaplain of the Caracas for
the missing Mourmahal.
