Remarkable Escape From heath In the
Turkey Win Colliery.
PATRICK MONAGrlAN YAS LUCKY
There Were Tons Of coal Above ajid Around
Ulm, But '.he Arching of Largo
Pieces Saved Him From Being
Crushed to Death.
A breast iu the TurlfOy ltuu colliery was
yesterday afternoon the scene of a most. re
markable escape from Until and tho man
who had tho experience Patrick Monaghan.
of West Oak street, and the father of one of
the public sohool teaulists, says ho is at a
low at times to tlliilerstahd how ho escaped
alive, and practically uninjured from the
tons of coal which fell over the piece In
which he was doubled up, almost like a hall.
Monaghan and Johu V. Itlalser, of South
Jaidiu street, were engaged in robbing In
the breast and the former was about to dis
lodgo somo old proi of wood when, like a
flash, thero was a great rush aud fall of coal.
Monaghan was the nearest to tho fall and
was completely covered Up. lilaker csped
tho fall, but a small piece of coal struck him
on tho back of the head with such force as
to send him shooting liko a dart down tho
chute. Tho man threw out his arms in the
descent and caught hold of a timber, which
enabled him to stop his filbht and pull him
self out of the way of another rush of coal
which would In all probability have crushed
him to pulp, Blakor's cap and lamp wore
lost aud ho was loft lu darkness, but hearing
tbo groans of Mqjjaghan above him he m.ide
his way to tho placo whore tho iiiiloilunate
man was covered ns fust as tho darkuess
would permit. Meanwhile "Jack" Fallou, a
miucr working iu an adjoining breast, uas
attracted to tho place b.v tho cieat nniso
caused by the rush and Maker's ciics for
help. Al. Schwindt, the lite boss, and Harry
Tempest also hastened to tho rescue and
Momighan was soon taken from his terrible
position, but not a second too soon,
as bo had barely been pulled from
beneath the coal "whon a second and
still greater fall than tho flrt took
place aud filled tho breast. When Monaghan
was found ho was so doubled that his head
was forced down between his legs and it was
with great difficulty that he could breathe.
He was threatened with suffocation. His re
markable escape from being crushed to death
is accounted for by tho manner in which the
coal fell. Tons of coal wore around and
above the man, hut somo large pieces fell in
such a position as to form an arch over his
body and prevented tho great mass from
crushing him.
Mr. Mouaghan was soon at ids homo, lift
night, resting comfortably on a lounge mid
telliug somo friends of his experience. W.tli
the exception of an ugly bruise
above tho right eye there was noth
ing in his appearance to show that
that a few hours before ho had Ijceii buried
beneath tons of coal.. He sustained other
Injuries, however, that will confine him to
tho houso for several days. His left hip was
badly gashed aud his back severely cut and
bruised, but the worst cU'ccts will bo sprenoss
for a few days. Mr. Monaghan says it was
tho closest call ho over had.

NEED OF LABOR ORGANIZATIONS
Declares Them a Nsoeseary Ceaeentltcmt ef
the Factory System, and expresses'
Appreelation of the Moderate
and Reasonable Demands
of Workers.
Washington, April 22. Speaker Reed
gave an interesting talk upon the pol
icy of the house, and incidentally dt-
riareu his views upon labor organlza-
wis yesterday. In the course of one of
conferences which are of dally oc
cuce In the speaker's room. A del-
tlon from the American Federation
Labor, headed by Samuel Gomners. r
the chief officer of the order, called to
request action by the speaker and the
house on matters in which the federa
tion is interested. They presented a
memorial asking the appointment of
Representative Gardner, of New Jer
sey, to the committee on labor, and
bIbo suggested amendments to the
eight hour laws.
The speech making on the part of
the federation was done by Mr. Gom
pers and P. J. McGuIre. Mr. Gompers
said that there was great distress
throughout the country, and many un
employed, and expressed a hope that
congress would do all in Its power to
alleviate the distress. He remarked
tlmt there had not been as much leg
islation In the Interest of labor by tho
last conzreBS as the laboring man
wished. They dld-not want to bo put
In the light of making demands upon
congress; they merely- desired to ox
press their wishes. They regretted
that the eight hour law was not mono
strictly enforced in Its application to
government works. They desired It to
be understood, however, that they were
antagonistic to revolutionary leaders,
and believed In lawful and orderly
agitation and In the Improvement of
existing conditions by legislation.
Siieaker Reed, In reply, expressed
appreciation of the moderate and rea
sonable attitude of the laboring men.
ipe moor organization, he said, was a
necessary concomitant of the factory
system. While in the old days laborers
had been individually independent, the
growth of the factory syBtem ha'd
forced them to organize for the preser
vation of their rights and Interests.
He believed that results beneficial to
humanity were coming from those or
ganizations. While reforms of the class
they spoke of moved slowly, they did
move. Public sentiment was now much
nipre tolerant of the eight hour law
jthan It had been ten yeans ago. Ha
could remember when every laboring
man was expected to work 12 hours.
Public sentiment had much to do with
the enforcement of the eight hour law,
and he had no doubt that under its
impulse conditions were continually
Improving.
Referring to congressional action,
the speaker Bald that only one thing
could be done- at a time, and he was
certain all would agree that the first
thing, to bo done by congress now was
to arrive at a decision on the pending
tariff bill one way or the other. He
hoped the delegation would use Its In
fluence to mold puhllo sentiment to
ask for aB speedy action on the tariff
hill aB could be obtained. It was not
thought best for the- house to deal
With other matters until that question
was out of the way, because any ac
tion taken here might complicate and
delay action on the tariff, which all
must concede to be necessary.
The tariff question once disposed off.
there would be opportunity for con
sideration of the other Interests asking
legislation. As to the special request
for the appointment ot Mr. Gardner,
the speaker said that would be taken
under consideration, as all requests for
committee assignments were.
In response to the complaint -that
tho last congress had not done enough
for labor, Mr. Reed said that remon
strances had been received by him
complaining that congress had been
too much under the domination of tho
Federation of Labor. This fact would
Illustrate that there were, conflicting
ideas in the country. In coficluslon
Mr. Reed expressed approval of the
policy adopted by the federation. A
continual and constant pressure within
the law was much more effective In se,
curing reforms than violent methods,
ho said. Violence always brings a re
action, and the reforms sought were
likely to be loBt In the turmoil of the
outbreak.
Now York'H Iuluu-ltiiuco Tax.
Albany, April 22. The senate yester

The assembly has already passed the
