SHOCKING ACCIDENT

Yesterday we gave rumor that man
by the name Of Colgan had been killed in q
coal bank. 1t proved too true, aud to-day
we lay before our readers the particulars as
made known to the coroner's jury. The.
coal bank where the accident happened is
about 81 miles below the city, and is we'll
known by the name Of the "Co!gan Bank"
The: particulars of.the accident a. testified
to before the coroner are terribly distinct ard
will certainly serve as another warning to
persons engaged in mining that ii Is inn
possible to exercise too much care.
1tappears that the coal was loosened by
. blast put of the night before. but J. W.
Pierce tells the story a. follows
1--WE went into the hank yesterday at our
usual time. We had let of shot the
night before between and O'clock
Colgan was cleaning out under the face OF
coal when, without warning, the whole face
of coal fell and caught Phillip. He was
on his knees facing the coal when it feli.-
There was about two or more tons of coal
that fell and rested on him. This piece
was about ten feet long and over two feet
thick. When we got the coal off of
him. he was resting on his knees, his body
pressed down between, aud his head be-
tween his hands. Ae never spoke or made
any noise after he was caught
L. d. McGlashon, civil engineer and
mine inspector for Wapello county. testifies
that he was in the Colgan Bank on Dec.
30th, aud made an inspection Of the room
OolGan was working in when he was killed.
Found the room well supported-roof good.
No fault Of the mine manager, but from his
own careles.ness from mining under face
OF coal after loosening it with shot the
night before.
j. ID. Criley says when he was called he
went into the room, could only see Colean's
feet. There was about two tons Of coal ".
ing ON him. Were about ten or fifteen
minutes getting him out--,he was dead when
taken out,
The jury returned verdict in accordance
with the above facts attaching no blame 10
