every moment news comes of more deaths
and injured. AS far as heard from, there
are eight known to be killed and over forty
wounded, with prospects that many of them
will die from injuries. 1t is impossible to
get particulars. Everybody is excited,
women and children crying and searching
for the remains of loved ones. Probably
many were blown into the air and their re-
mains are scattered broadcast. Everything
is being done that kind hearts and willing
hands can do. The miners union building
has been improvised into hospital and the
Masons and Odd Fellows are active in ef-
forts to alleviate the sufferings of all. The
shock was scarcely felt under ground at a
800 foot level. The men felt but a slight
jar, but paid small attention to it. For
tunately the drifts had just been connected,
SO no injury was done to ar below ground.

of twenty miles, "a learned by telegraph from

SAN Francisco, June 11.-Further par

zine which exploded show that it contained
about five tons of giant powder. The cause
of the explosion is unknown. The hosting
works of the old shaft of the Standard

extending to the shaft, but we're soon ex-
tinguished. The new shaft and hosting
works and we'll are uninjured and running
as usual. There is plenty of ore on hand
to keep the mill going until the works of
the old shaft are repaired. The
house of the new shaft was somewhat
damaged, but not SO as to interfere with
business. The building of Summit mine
Clinton, Bodie and Dudley slightly damaged.
buildings were more or less shattered. To
those previously reported as killed may be
added the following Chas. Malloy, miner,
explosion; Hugh Mcmillan and
now dead, and John McCarty. Among
badly; II. Hernsest, slightly. The scenes at
the miners union hall, used as Temporary
hospital, are of the most heartrending char
acter. It is crowded with killed and wounded
and hundreds are anxiously seeking friends
and relatives. The mine managers, survey
ors and nurses are unremitting in their
efforts to alleviate the suferings of the vic
TINS. A coroner's jury will be impannelled
and an inquest held soon as possible.
