United States Government Stock Inspector F. J. Foreman was at Teroio when the explosion occurred. He returned here to-night, and gives the following account of the affair: "I Nvas standing. not more than noo yards from the mouth of the tunnel when the explosion occurred.

The explosion was preceded by a low rumbling sound resembling an earthquake. which made the earth tremble and startled the whole came, "I looked toward the mine and out of the mouth of the tunnel and two air shaft came a great wolurne of smoke and dust, which continued for nearly a minute, 'Out of the two airshafts. each of which are 7 feet in diameter, timbers that were fully from 2 to 3 feet in diameter were shot into the air and broken into splinters. Rocks were thrown over the camp for a distance of a quarter of a mile.

It is not thought possible that any one In the mine can escape death if they are not all dead already.

It will be Impossible to secure names of the dead and Injured to-night. Nearly all the miners employed are Slays. The mine was opened only a year ago, and extended 2000 feet Into the hill. The explosion is supposed to have been caused byI dust. But one body has been recovered, that of T.

Louis Clergyman. SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE GLOBE-DEMOCRAT. BALTIMORE. October George Frederick Kettell was drowned here this afternoon, off Sparrow's Point. In a mysterious manner.

It is not clear whether it was an accident or a deliberate act. Kettell was formerly assistant rector Christ Episcopal church, this city. Ile was barred from a rectorship at Palmyra, N. by Bishop Scarborough because he married the divorced wife of Rev. elm'.

ence Frankel, formerly of St. Louis. Since this marriage the young clergyman has had lots of trouble. After a legal contest over his dismissal from the Palmyra church he and his wife went to Philadelphia, where he was a tutor in a school. Later they returned to Maryland, he to visit his mother and she to visit her family at Pocomoke City.

To-day they visited friends at Sparrow's Point. After dinner Kettell said he would take row on the river. When some distance from shore the marine observer at that point saw him struggling in the water. The body has not been recovered. The boat was not overturned and was dry inside.

A watchman on the shore says he saw the clergyman throw an oar from thq boat and then dive overboard, at the same time pushing the boat away from him. Other witnesses of the drowning think that the man lost the oar and fell overboard while trying to recover it. WOW' had been suffering from nervous prostration. He was 33 years old.

PORT ARTHUR FALL SEEN BY STOESSEL SrECIAL CABLEGRAM TO Mt GLIDEDEMOCRAT.

LONDON, October war crisis has passed for the time being. Liussia and England have agreed to arbitrate the question of the responsibility for the North sea outrage. Great Britain has consented to make use of the machinery of The Hague tribunal to determine, not the settlement of the controversy, but the facts which underlie it. though these facts are really beyond dispute. The sole object in submitting the evidence to an international board is to keep within the Jurisdiction of diplomacy an issue which otherwise wosild plunge two powers into war within another twenty-four hours.

This result is due largely to the earnest Unofficial intercession of France. The reference to an international tribunal by no means disposes of the demand for Punishment, in addition to apology and indemnity. Defines England's Attitude. srEctAkt. CtTiLEGIRAM TO TUE CLO13E4)1010eRAT.

ENGLAND, October 2.S.Premier Balfour addressed an immense meeting in Artillery hall to-night. Ills entire speech was devoted to the North sea incident, in which he announced that the Russian government had agreed with Great Britain concerning the necessity for an investigation. The responsible officers would not be permitted to proceed to the far Eamt and the persons found guilty would be adequately punished. The entire facts must be brought out at the Investigation, which, Mr. Balfour pointed Mit.

would be made by three distinct bodies: (I) By the international commission, (2) by the board of trade inquiry and (i) by the coroner's inquest. Both sides, he said, would abide by the decision of the international' commission, which would consider all the questions at issue, thus war between the two great nations would be avoided without dishonor. In the course of his speech Premier Balfour declared it could not for a moment be supposed that throughout all the channels of commerce from St. Petersburg to Viedivostoli and the way, of the Red Red sea. an admiral of another psw Shotild be allowed to pass Under such unscathed, unchallenged and unpuhished after such a deed as that of the night of October 21..

It would be a which it would he impoesibl.t for Great Britain as is natinti to tolerats. hence the Ruselan government hal promised to make an inquiry it'd had ardered the detention of part of the Russian squadron at 1.1 Ecesian session of the occurrence of the night of Octouer 21 was equivalent to an attack on Grt Britain's national honor. The tsrpetio boats spoken of by the Russian admit-Al were phantom ships. crertures of pure fancy, against which Mr. Balfour Lettered a most emphatic protest.

Orders Ships Held at Vigo. ST. PETERSBURG, October 28.There was a feeling of profound relief to-night that the grave crisis in the relations between Russia and Great Britain over the North sea incident hen been avoided by a decision to submit the Issuo to a commission to be created under the articles of The Hague convention. Definite assurance of a settlement came this afternoon, when the czar, at an audience with Foreign Minister Lamsdortf, announced his hearty approval of the plan for an international commission. Meanwhile, orders had already been sent to Vigo to detain the ships which participated in the firing on the British trawlers until detailed arrangements for procedure could be agreed upon.

I Ohio drops dead to Tyner let- the public de- assistant at 0.11 a rp.rt frhn rik etf Senator Charles Warren Fairbanks of REMOVES JUDfiES Officials LA Out in Third Ward Backed Miles Against Hawes. A large number of Democratic judges and clerks of election in the 3d ward were yesterlay removed by the board of election co missioners on charges filed against them by Committeeman J. T. Donovan. This action will renew the fight for ward supremacy between James P.

Aliles and Donovan and it will have Mill more far-reaching effects. Election Commissioner John M. Wood last night stated that the charges filed with the election conandssioner s. on which they ousted the offieials and named judges and clerks to supplant them included incompetency. intoxication and supporting the Republican ticket and that several of them had absented themselves from the registration places on the four days of registration The action of the board yesterday is said to be only the forerunner of 'chat is to follow.

The scheme is said to involve all of the Democratic election officials who are hostile to the Ilawes-Polk faction, At the time of the selection of the judges it was charged they were selected solely in the interest of the Democratic nominees. The sharp controversy developed by the Democratic city primaries was not anticipated. One of the sharpest fights at the primaries was in the 3d ward, where Hawes and the police were fighting Committeeman "Jimmy" Miles. In order to insure his defeat police were taken into the ward by the dozens to assist in obtaining control for Donovan. Since that time Miles and his followers have been recalcitrant.

Their ardor for the success of the Democratic ticket has diminished No way remained to get them out of power except by ousting their judges and clerks. This was started yesterdaY. The plan of the Hawes -Polk combination is to carry St Louis for the Democrats regardless of cost. It is charged that they will find it necessary to select a new set of election officials in all of the so-called Butler wards. Plans for undermining the election judges in the 3d ward originated at a meeting on North Broadway of Donovan and a number of the judges in the ward a week ago.

Of the thirty-six Democratic judges and clerks in the vvard only fourteen are said to have attended. The general impression is that remaining twenty-two were removed by the election commissioners. Judge Wood stated last night that he did not remember just how many judges and clerks had been removed, but believed that the number would hardly reach twenty-two. Central Committeeman Andrew. Sheridan of the 1st ward is another one of the Ilawes committeemen displeased with the seleettons of his predecessor for judges and clerks- Ile appeared before the election board yesterday with a new set of officers, but as no charges had been made against those originally by the commissioners no action was taken la that case.

Miles friends declare that there Is no law to justify the action of the election Commissioners, claiming that the time for removing objectionable Officials expired twenty days after their selection. They also declare that the reasons given by th.3 board for their decapitation action is not a clear one. Miles could not be located night. but several of his friends said they would urge him to protect his selections for judges by a writ of mandamus compelling the election board to reinstate I I "The diplomacy of President Roosevelt is exaltedit makes for the peace of the world."

At the appearance of Senator Fairbanks on the speakers platform a storm of applause swept through the hall. Shouts of "Hurrah for Rocsevelt," "Hurrah foi Fairbanks," woe taken up by the hundreds outside who cou'A not get into the crowded hall.

Senator Fairbanks acknowledged the ovation, which lasted for five minutes, by bowing a number of titres to the audience. The meeting surpassed in size even the hopes of Chairman T. K. Niedringhaus and, others on the Republican state committee who made the preparations for it. The inadequate' size of the Into which more than 4000 persons crowded, was even lamented by Senator Fairbanks.

ring. 1etober Elder 'RIM Indiana, Republican nominee for vice president, completed his two days' tour of Missouri by addressing a magnificent meeting at Lernifs Park hall last night. The spirit of triumphant Republicanism, of patriotic ardor, of conquering conviction was present, and hovered over the gathering like an omen of coming victory. In many respects the meeting was similar to the splendid demonstration which was tendered Theodore Roosevelt then a candidate for vice president in the Coliseum four years ago. No one who was present then will ever forget that meeting, and no one was present last night who did not carry home with him a feeling of warmth and satistattion with the government and destinies of his country.

The Fairbanks special reached the thy promptly on time, and the vice presidential candidate with former Senator William E. Mason of Illinois and other members of his party, was driven to South St. Louis after a short delay at Union station. The carriage in which Senator Fairbanks rode was furnished by Adolphus Busch, the brewer, who, although a Democrat, is a great admirer of both President Roosevelt and his running mate. After the meeting Senator Fairbanks and a number of Republican leaders were the guests of 'Nfr.

Busch at his mansi ne in Busch place, where they had lunch and spent bours before the of their train for Cincinnati hy way of Louisville. Satisfied with Missouri Trip. Senator Fairbanks expressed liimeelf well satisfied with his trip through Missouri. Far from giving up the state, he declared that the Republican natienal leaders had great hopes of Missouri, nr considered it already in the doubtful list. The national leaders were not insensible to the disabilities under which the ZI99.600 Republicans of Missouri had been plaeed by the Democratic legislature.

especially in St, Louis, he said but even these weke not sufficient to overcome the sentimout which was abroad in the state demanding a change of policies and parties at Jefferson City. As in all of his speeches in the state, Senator Fairbanks took occasion to indorse in unqualified terms the Republican nominee for governor, Cyrus P. Walbridge, and the other candidates on the tieket with him. He sharply rebuked that portion of the Democratic press which has sought to make it appear thot he failed to speak a good word for Mr. Walbridge in his talk at Kansas City early In the campaign, and gave the lie direct to these charges.
