Fire in the Mines of Nevada-Terribie Ca
Observation-Disclosures Persons Burned.
SAN FRANcIsCo, April q.
= A fire broke out this morning in the
Yellow Jacket mine, Gold Hill, Ne
vada, and soon communicated to Ken
lucky and Crown Point mines. Thus
far, O'Clock p. M, eleven bodies had
been taken from the shafts of the three
mines. Other bodies were seen at the
bottom of Kentucky shaft, but it was
impossible to remove them on account
of the heat.
1t is impossible 10 ascertain how
many persons are in the mines. as the
excitement and confusion is so great
that a roll cannot be called of those at
work in the mines.
At least sixty men were at work i'll
the three mines, and it is yet unknown
how many have escaped.
The distress is fearful; wives and
children are congregated about the
entrances of the mines, calling for
| missing husbands and fathers.
s T. M.-Latest reports from Gold
| Hill state that the number known to
be dead is thirty-six, five in Yellow
Jacket, eight in Kentucky, and twen-
| ty-three in Crown Point,
The fire originated in the Kentucky
I mine. 1t is reported now as spread
ing toward the Jacket shops.
The 1fremen have spcceeded in get
ting hose down The Jacket shaft, on q
level with the fire, and hopes are ell
