TERRIBLE GAS EXPLOSION.

MYSTERIOUS IGNITING OF ''FIRE DAMP" IN
VIRGINIA COAL PIT-FoUR MEN BURNED TO
DEATH IN A sUBTERRANEAN CONFEDERATION.
RICHMOND, Va, Oct p, 1875.
Yesterday morning about five O'Clock, terrible
cdent took place at the coal pit known Raccoon Pit
OF the Glover Hill pits in Chesterfield county. Four
instantly killed. The accident was
caused by the explosion OF body Of gas,
but how 1t occurred remains unexplained at present
II is the opinion, however Of those familiar with the
pits that II accidentally caused by the gas man,
whose name Davis. There were only four in
the PIT at the time and they pcrlshed in the connagra
ton that resulted from the ignition Of the gas. The
names of tho killed Davis and Thomas Smith,
gas men, and Condrey and Tutwilcr assistants.
Tho miners have been at work all day to-day
looking for the bodies Of the who perished and
they succeeded this evening in getting them all OUT
but they terribly burned that they could not
be recognized. II was providental that tho accident
happened so early in the morning, as large number
Of men would have been in the pit hour lator and
many more lives would have been lost II will take
several days TO get the pit in operation again Tho
scene Of tho accident eighteen miles from any iee
