before midnight last night, a runaway
mine car killed thirteen men and boy*
and Injured several more. The car had
been left standing near Puritan lost
night when the mines closed and some
malicious person loosened the brakes
and permitted the car to speed down
the sharp Incline.
The disaster happened on what Is
known as Martin's branch, a stretch
of track four miles long. Tho car was
stopped one mllo west of Portage, but
In til.- short spa tin*-,- miles thir
teen persons were killed.
The car crashed Into a number of
cars standing on tho track and was
wrecked. An Investigation disclosed
the mangled body of a man lying be
side the track. Going further another
body was found. Several hundred feet
up the incline two bodies, horribly
mangled, were lying on the track. On,
and still on, ths searchers went, nml

By Private Leased Wire.
Oyster Bay, July 4.—This waa Oyster
Bay's Fourth of Jiily. A little thing
like lowering clouds and occasional
showers did not domran tho ardor of
tho hardy Long Islanders, who wero
determined, rain or shine, to carry out
their program, and do honor to tho day
and the presldc\\
.Mr. Roo.Nfv’eli was among- the early
arrivals at the Kmvo In which tin* cere
monies wero to take place. Ho was
accompanied by Secretary Loeb.
Promptly on tlmo tho coremonies began
with a chorus of school children under
tin* direction of Itev. Warren A. Bos
nian. They sang tho "Star Spangled
H.inner” with fervor, and wore re
warded with hearty applause, which
was lod by tho president.
Mr, Jloosevelt was well guarded.
There was beside tho secret service
guard a platoon of uniformed police
men, who came over from Nassau, and
at least 100 special deputy sheriffs on
duty, so that there was no probability
of harm coming to the distinguished
guest.
The master of ceremonies was form
er Sheriff Jerome Johnson, who Intro
duced Grand Beekman as the man
upon whom had b**.*n .confenvd tin*
honor of introducing Mr. Roosevelt.
The presliii'Mt spoke extemporaneous
ly nnd was In his Impplent vein. He
delivered a typical Fourth of July
speech, In which he demonstrated the
truth of the famous saying of Uncle Joo
Cannon, that "This country Is a h—1
of a success." Ho spoke of the duties
of citizenship and the virtues necessary
to keep the United States in tho high
place among the family of nations site
now holds.

St. Petersburg, July 4.—Russia today
Is on tho eve of a decisive crisis, A
straw may turn the scales toward con-

Is clearly realised at Peterhof
that half-way concessions are no lon

possible to maintain tho present situ#

Either the douma may have Ita own
ministry or be disparted. A constitu
tional government or a coup d’etat are
tho only alternatives now contem
plated. Perhaps the rumors that 35
per cent of the army cannot be trusted
nnd that the officers of the guard
threaten to resign en masse may be
the reason for tho recent crisis,

Commissioners of Roads and Rev
enues Hold Warm Session
Wednesday.
The county will come to the aid of
Atlanta with n proposition which may
aolve the Peachtrco paving problem, to
which there has seemed to be no so
lution without a lung tvnlt of probably
a year. *
At a lengthy and Important meeting
of the county commissioner*, held
Wednesday morning, It wag decided
to make a proposition to the city that
If the city would furnish the money
for the actual cost of material tho
county would resurface Peachtree
street from Ellis to Sixth street, and
pave this Important horoughfare from
Sixth to Fourteen streets, with bt-
tullthlc. Figures were given showing
that this pavement, which by all those
present was considered excellent, can
be laid for lese than 61 a yard, or a
saving of some 11,000, to the city and
the same to the property owners, mak
ing a saving of 614,000 In all, over
asphalt.
A full attendance of the commission-
era waa present at the meeting that
lasted for over two hoars. Attorney E.
M. Underwood, for the Southern Ol-
tullthlc Company, from which the
county purchased Its bltullthlc appa
ratus, brought up the Peachtree paving
matter. He stated, among other things,
that If tho city attempted to lay aa-
phalt thero would be Injunctions, served

restrolninar them, as a number of tho
property holders wero strongly against
this expensive and non-lnsting paving.
Further, that tin- . Ily ruuld not find tho
fundN to pay lt« part in .such paving,
and that If tho county would undertake
to do the work the company would
furnish free exports to oversee It, be
cause ot tho existing contracts with
tho company.
It was then unanimously decided
to make the above net forth proposi
tion to the city, which, it la believed,
will be a aoluUon to the problem of
paving Peachtree street.
Colonel Anderion Criticizes Council.
A long and at one Juncture rather
ardent discussion was brought up at
the meeting whon a committee of citi
zens, composed of Malvern Hill, W. R.
Shropshire, S. W. Wilkes and R. M,
Gann, brought beforo the commission
ers the matter of placing, pavement
street from Gordon street to
the city limits. Mr. Hill Htqtcd that
the road was In a poor condition, nnd
that chert soemed Inadequate for tho
heavy traffic which passed over this
much-used thoroughfare. He asked
that the county lay another paving,
placing brick between the car tracks
and several feet on the sides.
Colonel Clifford Anderson next took
the lloor and said: **1 wish to say
something nt this time, as there are a
number of the city councilmen present.
The county is willing to do Its part,
but It Is getting tired of fixing streets
when the city never takes care of them
after thoy are laid. S »rn»- yo-ars ago.
Just for Instance, the county paved
Peachtree street from Sixth to Four
teenth streets. Since then the city has
done absolutely ncthlng to keep up the
paving. The county doesn't see fit to
fix streets and roads If the city council
will do nothing to keep them up."
Councilmen E. W. Martin, a A.
Wiki© and Alderman J. N. McEachcm,
appointed by council to look Into the
matter of paving Lee street, were then
heard. Councilman Martin declared
that the city had heavy expenses and
that at this time the street funds were
exhausted, but that something should
be done on the street under discussion.
It was decided to pave this street
with bltullthlc in the early spring If tho
city would pave between the car tracks
and at the sides.
Wants a Square Deal.
The owner of Heard'e park appeared
before the board. Ho said that the
perk was discriminated against. In that
other parks around, the city, such as
Ponce DeLeon, were Allowed to sell
soft drinks on Sunday, when he was
not. He stated that this was against
the state code, and all he wanted was a
"fair and square deaL” This phrase
was the key-note of a rather long
speech which was brought to a close
by the presentation of a petition signed
by some two hundred people living In
the neighborhood. It was stated that
negroes not two blocks from the park
were allowed to sell soft drinks and
that all other porks were allowed the
same privilege, but that Heard's park
as not
The commission decided to notify the
chief of county police not to show any
discrimination.
