NO EXCUSE FOR DISASTER
Says State Agent, Blaming Llgonier
Road For Fatal Wreck.
It is expected that the attorney gen
eral of Pennsylvania will be asked by
the state railroad commission 'to con
sider the advisability or instituting
criminal prosecutions in connection
with the wreck, July 5, on the Llgonier
Valley railroad.
John H, Dohoney, marshal of the
commission, who investigated the
wreck for the commission, made his
report in which he describes the clr
cumstances leading up to the disaster
as "'reckless and Inexcusable." The
company will be given time to make
an explanation If it desires after
which the railroad commission will
act.
" According to Dohoney's report there
was no reasonable excuse foi running
the passenger coach ahead of the loco
motive, thus putting it in the way of
receiving the lull force of the collision.
The commission will look Into the
question of whether this was not in
direct violation of law.
EIGHT KILLED IN MINE
Explosion of Gas Probably Caused by
Open Lamp.
A gas explosion in the Panama
mine of the Ben Franklin Coal com
psny of West Virginia, which probably

tnree otners.
The dead are:
Joe Cannalle. Joe Marschllla, Mike
Rodena, Joe Markeno, Alvy Hurley,
Leslie Wilson, Andy "Chaskie and Wil
liam Cheskie.
The injured are: William Hupp,
David Brooks, Joe Manlleis.
The lack of safety lanterns caused
a delay of nearly two hours in send
ing down the rescue party. ' Superin
tendents and other officials of several
mines made up the rescue party. All
the victims were horribly mutilated.

RA LOWERED
By a vote of 222 to 1 the house
adopted the thirteen articles of im
peachment for high crimes and misde
meanors against Judire RoIiph W
Archbald, formerly district Indue nf
the United States court of the middle
district of Pennsylvania and now a
judge or the United States commerce
court.
The house committee renorfwas
Bevere on Archbald. It demanded thut
the judge be impeached for "misbe
navior and high crime and misde
meanors," declaring Archbald'a "sense
of moral responsibility had become
aeaaened," and that "he had prosti
tuted his high office for Dersonal
profit."
Thirteen articles of Imneachment
were presented In the resolution
The testimony." savs the renort
"shows that at different times, when
Judge Archbald was a Judge of the
United States district court, he sonirht
and obtained credit, and in other In
stances sought to obtain credit from
persons who had litigations nendine in
his court. The testimony shows that
arter Judge Archbald had been nro.
moted to the position of United States
circuit Judge and had been designated
as one of the judges of the commerce
court in connection with different ner
sons he sought to obtain options on
culm dumps and other coal properties
rrom officers and agents of coal com
panics which were owned and con
trolled by railroad companies.
The testimony further shows that
in order to influence the officers of
the coal companies which were sub
sidiary to and owned by the railroad
companies Archbald repeatedly sought
to influence the officials of the rail
roads to enter into contracts with his
associates for the financial benefit of
himself and his associates. In most
instances the contracts were executed
in the name of the person associated
with the Judge in the particular trans
action or trade, and the Judge's name
was not disclosed on the file of the
contract.
"The testimony shows, however
that he was as a matter of fact
pecuniarily interested in such con
tracts and that while his interest was
not known to the public, It was known
to the officials of the railroads and of
the coal companies and their sub
siuianes.
Jail Instead of Altar.
Instead of leading his fiancee to the
altar Richard Bern was led to ihe
workhouse in Sharon. Pa., to serve
three months on a charee nf as-
sauit and battery. The couple were
naving a friendly tussle when Richard
playfully twisted his sweetheart's arm
out of place. She began crying, but
Klctiard, thinking that she was fool-
lng, began tickling her in the ribs.
The woman became hysterical. When
sne recovered she swore out a warrant
for her beau's arrest.

m SENAT
Vote to Unseat lilincisan is
55 to 22
The I'nited States senate ousted
William Lorlmer of Illinois on the
ground that his election was tainted
with corruption.
The vole was 55 to 28. In takln
this notion the senate recorded in hb
tory the first case where a member
of that body has been unseated on
charges of bribery.
When the clerk of the senate finally
announced l.orimer's expulsion the
senator arose and with head erect and
unlaltcring step walked out of the
chamber. Many in the crowded gal
leries watched this llnal act in tho
tragedy with tears streaming down
their cheeks.
Loiimor declined to disclose what
his plans are for the future, hut In the
last sentence of his three days' speech
he served notice that he would fight
to the death to remove this blot from
his record and restore his name to
honor.
Kven Lorimer's enemies acknowl
edged ho can, on the precedent es
tablished in his case, call for a reopen-
Ing on new evidence in the United
States senate. It Is likely, however,
that Lorlmer will carry the fight hack
to the state of Illinois and appeal to
the people for a Judgment. He may
even seek to be returned to the senate
as a vindication.
Of the senators voting against Lorl
men twenty-seven are .Republicans nnd
twenty-eight Democrats. Of the sena
tors who voted lor Lorlmer twenty
are Republicans and eight Democrats.
DEMAND SHOULD BE HEAVY
Dun's Review Sees Fine Season For
Business Ahead.
Dun's Review or Trade says this
week :
"The volume of business reaches
seasonable proportions. With abundant
harvests, which now seem assured,
there should be an early and heavy
demand for merchandise.
"Steel production has been slightly
curtaifed because of the hot weather
and the necessity of making repairs,
while difficulty in securing adequate
labor has delayed the blowing In of
several eastern blast furnaces. Pres
sure for de.iVerles of ull kinds of fin
ished products, however, continues a
significant Icatnre of the situation.
Quietness prevails in pig iron and no
large contracts are pending, yet prices
are firm."
