JACKSON, Cal., Sept. 19.—While both state and federal authorities were preparing to carry through a complete investigation of the Argonaut mine tragedy which resulted in the death of 47 miners entombed by cave-in, gas and fire, the bodies of the victims were being brought out of the mine today and arrangements for the biggest funeral ever held in the mining districts of the Pacific Coast were under way. The golden crypt of the Argonaut mine gave up its dead in the same silent manner that the lives of the 47 were snuffed out. Gas conditions delayed the work of bringing the bodies to the surface today. New air lines had to be laid, new ventilation plans carried out and the decomposed condition of the bodies themselves made the work slow and laborious. Definite burial plans have not been announced although it is understood the interment will be handled by the mining company under the jurisdiction of the state health authorities. B. O. Pickard, head of the United States bureau of mines rescue crew, today received a telegram from Dr. H. Foster Bain, director of the United States bureau of mines, in which he declared the safety codes prescribed by the laws of many states are inadequate. Guarente Jarvis, representing Gov. W. D. Stephens, had already announced there would be a thorough probe following the completion of the rescue work. All the dead were found behind bulkheads which the entombed and constructed in a vain effort to save themselves. The bodies were so decomposed as to make identification difficult. Not one of the 47 had remained alive after the first few hours of the fire which broke out in the Argonaut shaft at midnight on Aug. 27. They were driven from passage to passage by the deadly fumes of gas and finally made a last stand on the 4350-foot level of the Argonaut behind two make-shift bulkheads. And there, one by one, they gasped their last breath and died from lack of air. Today the mining town of Jackson mourned its dead. In the relaxation of the grief that followed the 22 days of struggle to break into the Argonaut mine, the knowledge that the effort was in vain, that all of the men were already dead hours before the first shovelful of earth was removed in the drift has come with an irony almost too bitter to borne. The men were alive but dying at 3 o'clock on the morning of Aug. 28. By 4 o'clock they were in the embrace of death, huddled bodies lying still. This fact was established by two notes, one by William Fessel, miner and chemist and father of a family who perished and the other in the afternoon and the other in the evening went on record as being solidly back of the city council for the $165,000 bond issue to develop the city park at once, finish and equip the city hall and to furnish funds for extension of water mains and sewers to new subdivisions and for paving of intersections and some re-surfacing. The action was taken at a rousing meeting following a banquet at 6:30 in the Elks club. It was the first meeting after a two months' vacation. Mr. J. L. Conway, with two assistants of the Orange-co Credit Ass'n, gave interesting data on the activities of that organization. The merchants listened to eloquent presentation of the vast advertising possibilities of the Elks Baseball club which will play for the state championship at Santa Monica or possibly Vernon Friday, October 13. A committee was named to act with a C. O. delegation to see if stores will close afternoon of the game. Trading stamps, a new form of which has made its appearance in Anaheim, came in for excoration. They were denounced as unfair competition, bad business ethics and poor merchandising. Resolutions were adopted warning members of the association against them and reminding them of the fights in the past to keep such out of town. All present declared themselves against the stamps. Several new members were reported. KIWANIANS DONATE TO MINERS’ WIDOWS On motion of William Falkenstein, the Anaheim Kiwanis Club at its luncheon meeting today in the Elks Club voted to send $41.00, donated by the 41 members present, to the widows and children of the 47 miners who died in the Argonaut mine at Jackson. Various members, it was announced will attend the meeting of the Los Angeles Kiwanis Club tomorrow noon in the Alexandria Hotel and hear William Jennings Bryan. Each of the members has sent or will send cards of greeting to William T. Wallop, who is in Virginia; Rev. J. A. Geissinger, George M. Ross and George Sloop, who are ill. Earl B. Tozler, municipal band leader, addressed the club, asking for aid toward the proposed Sunday afternoon band concerts, which he said would cost $100 each. Rehearsals will start at once, it was said, for the musical extravaganza，“Senor Pecan”, the proceeds of which will be devoted to paying for a wading pool for the kiddies and playground apparatus for the older children at the municipal park. Two performances, one in the afternoon and one in the evening went on record as being solidly back of the city council for the $165,000 bond issue to develop the city park at once, finish and equip the city hall and to furnish funds for extension of water mains and sewers to new subdivisions and for paving of intersections and some re-surfacing.

Two performances, one in the afternoon and one in out from the Kennedy mine, the knowledge that the effort was in vain, that all of the men were already dead hours before the first shovelful of earth was removed in the drift has come with an irony almost too bitter to borne. The men were alive but dying at 3 o'clock on the morning of Aug. 28. By 4 o'clock they were in the embrace of death, huddled bodies lying still. This fact was established by two notes, one by William Fessel, miner and chemist and father of a family who perished, and the other from an unknown hand. Fessel's note was burned deep into the wood on the innermost of the two bulkheads which the men frantically had constructed to keep out the gas. He had used the flame of his tiny minern' carbide lamp and bad seared the wood with this message: "Three a.m. Gas very bad. We are going to leave you." "WILLIAM PESSEL." A second note, a benciled scrawl, was picked up on the wet floor of the drift. It reat: "Three o'clock; too much gas." Below was a rudely scrawled figure "4". It appeared as if the writer had endeavored to write a message at 4 o'clock but the gas had already overpowered the men.

The contrivance, the invention of a San Francisco man, fits snugly under the collar and is warranted to defy the most searching investigation of a smoopy prohibition agent, according... to Prohibition Agent-In-Charge Harold H. Dolley. 2ND CHARGE AGAINST REALTOR LOCAL STAGE DRIVER WAS ENTOMBED A deep personal interest in the fate of the 47 miners fatally entombed in the Argonaut mine at Jackson has been felt by Czorge Crouse, genial driver for the Crown stage between Anaheim and Los Angeles. A taste of a similar catastrophe was experienced by Crouse a few years ago, when with 35 other miners, he was entombed in the standard coal mines in Pennsylvania ½ days. A cave-in cut the three dozen men off from the world, without a drop of water or any food. Crouse says the first day of the imprisonment is filled with thoughts of those in suspense, and with the desire for food, drink and freedom. But after the first day or two no discomfort is felt, pangs of hunger nor thirst, mere inefficiency to sleep continually, and that is now those 30 issued their time until rescued. Crouse quit the mining game shortly after this experience, and says he prefers "stage life" in California. He relates other sad experiences of one who work under ground, such tragedies of slate slides, broken alleys and the many other circumstances so common in the lives of miners. UBDIVIDE 895 A.

BURNING VESSEL THREATENS DOCK LOS ANGELES, Sept. 19. — Fire threatened to destroy a half mile of quays stacked high with lumber at San Pedro today when a blaze broke out aboard the William Donovan, a 1500-ton freighter bearing 600,000 feet of lumber, which docked this morning, at the wharf of the Kerckhoff Lumber Co. C. W. Newton, chief engineer on the vessel, was severely burned about the head and arms just after the fire was discovered. He was hurried to the Hillside hospital at San Pedro in a police ambulance. Apparatus was rushed from Los Angeles to the Kirckhaff wharf to assist the San Pedro fire fighting division and a harbor fire tug in extinguishing the blaze.

ANAHEIMERS OWN RICH MINES Silver ore valued at $300 per sack is being taken out of the El Socorro Mines Company's property in the Yaqui river-country, Mexico, and the owners, comprising Anaheimers for the most part, have nearly completed a second tunnel at a depth of approximately 400 feet from which ore averaging still higher values is anticipated. Transportation is the problem now to be solved. The Southern Pacific Railway of Mexico runs within 12 miles of the property, but its culverts were blown up during the last revolution and, while its tracks are in good condition, the road cannot be used. P. H. Krick, John Cook and J. Hoffman, a mechanical engineer of Santa Ana, will drive to the mines early next month via Nogales. From Nogales they will follow the Southern Pacific tracks to Ortiz and thence leaving the road will drive 86 miles to Realito on the Yaqui river, 15 miles from the mines. The last 15 miles they will travel by burro. The others who have considerable holdings in the property are L. A. Evans, Alex Witman, Jr., and J. L. Sheperd of Anaheim; D. Wolfson of Santa Ana and Rivardo Caligas of Onabaco, Mexico, who formerly owned the property. The latter built the first tunnel and started the second. He took out 000 worth of ore before he sold most of his holdings. The men mentioned also control the El Sonora Mines Company, S.
