HINER KILLBB.-The following account OF
the death of Dan Sullivan, the miner who
was killed at the Richmond mine, Eureka,
last Tuesday, is by one of his fellow miners: :
At the change of the shifts, at half past
o'clock on Tuesday morning, at the Rich
mond mine, Daniel Sullivan lost his life in
the following manner He was one of the
second large load of men who were lowered
to the 50O-foot level. The cage stopped about
three feet above the station level, when two
bells were given to lower the cage to the sta
ton level, but no attention paid to the
two bells rung. The men on the cage began
to get off, and four Of the six men got off, and
as Dan Sullivan, the fifth man, was in the act
of getting off, the engineer, with sudden
jerk and with the speed of lightning, hoisted
the cage, with the sixth man on it, TO the sur
face, catching poor Sullivan between the plat
form of the cage and the cribbing of the shaft
and pulled his lifeless body up to the 4OO-foot
station, where, i'll passing, his mangled body
was freed from the cage, and dropped down
into the stump at the bottom of the shaft,
distance of 500 feet. Some twenty minutes
afterwards, or soon men could get to the
bottom of the shaft, Sullivan was taken out
shapeess mass of humanity. The men at
the station were just about to get into the
cage, and in a few seconds more, instead of
one victim, we might have had four or five.
