A Terrible Explosion in
a Coal Mine.
Nineteen Men Killed and
Others Wounded.
Heart Reading Scenes at the
Mouth Of the Pit.
PIrTsBURG. Pa, Feb. 20.

fIIISBUkG, IA, req. SU
This morning one of the most terrible ex.
plosions ever known in this vicinity occurred
in West Leisering shaft, . few miles from
here, resulting in frightful loss of life. The
particulars are so meagre that nothing de6n.
ite is known as to what caused the disaster.
The latest report received here at noon was
to the effect that 70 persons were at work in
the mine ct the time of the explosion, and
that 20 persons are known to have been
killed. Many dead bodies have been taken
out. Twelve persons have been rescued,
several badly injured. They will die. Every
effort is being made to get at those who are
yet in the mine, and learn the full extent o
the accident. 1t is thought that at least SO
persons of the IS in the mine were killed or
so badly injured that they will die.
The conclusion was SO great that the top of
derrick 100 feet high was knocked of. Two
mules were cstanding at the bottom of the
shaft 800 fee from where the explosion oc.
Cured, and the rush of air was SO great that
one was blown through a wooden cage, shat
tering it.
An awful scene ensued among the terror
stricken miners which cannot be described.
All lamps was blown out, and they were left
in darkness and confusion. They had not
time to recover from the shock before they
found themselves unable to breathe. The
explosion left the mine filled with after
damp, which contains no oxygen and renders
it impossible for life to be sustained for any
time. OF all the men who were in the head
ing where the explosion occurred, Dick
Balsley alone escaped to tell the awful story.
When the explosion came Balsley was just
changing his clothes. He at once wound a
part of his clothing tightly around his face
and mouth to keep the foul air from choking
him, and gave the rest of his garments to his
companions with instructions to take the
same precautions. Then he started for the
main entrance, bidding his companions to
follow.
Balseley's escape is regarded by expert
enced miners as one of the most marvellous
on record. When the explosion became
known the families of the miners gathered
about the shaft and awaited developments in
breathless suspense. So dangerous was the
any volunteers could enter the mine. 1t was
about o'clock when the first body was
brought out. The work of rescuing the bod
les went on rapidly, and at noon 10 bodies
had been carried out of the shaft. The com
panys books were then examined and the
rolls called. 1t was found that all the men
were accounted for. Coroner Baton of this
place with many citizens, went from here
and the inquest began at half past o'clock.
No testimony was taken except that which
identified the dead.
The dead number nineteen. The scenes
at the afflicted homes tonight are heart-rend-
ing beyond description. The fire boss with
lamp made the usual examination last night
and pronounced the mine all right.

MAlNR DISPATCHES.
THE MURDER TRIAL.
Rafael Capone on Trial for Completely
Interesting story of Santore's
Early Days.

BANGOR, Feb. 20.
The trial of Rafael Capone. indicted for
completely with Carmen Santore in the muir
der of Paschal Corsie, was continued this
morning.
City Marshal Reed testified to his identifi-
cation of the bloody clothing as belonging to
Capone and also to the prisoners going vol
UNFAIRLY and showing where the money had
been hid.
Charles Odell testified to an interview with
Capone shortly after the murder.
Carmen Santore, who was yesterday pro-
nounced by the jury guilty of murder in the
first degree, was summoned and testified At
considerable length. His testimony was an
witness in his own behalf. He reaffirmed his
own innocence and stated that the murder and
robbery was all committed by Cspone.
On cross-examination Santore said he was
43 years of age and had wife now living in
Italy; that he was at one time concerned in a
revolution in his native village and being ar
rested with about one hundred prisoners, he
was sentenced to Jail for ten years. After
being in prison eight years he was pardoned
by the King. Col. Bradbury cross-examined
the prisoner at considerable length.
Several witnesses testified substantially as
at the previous trial.
Col. A. w Bradbury of Portland opened
for the respondent in an able manner and
outlined the theory of the defence, which is.
Santore did the shooting and clubbing and
Capone committed only the robbery, being
driven to the deed by threats from Santore.
The llood on Capone's clothing is explained
by the murdered man, when shot by Santore,
falling on Capone and also by the blood get
ting on while he was rifing the pockets of
the dead Italian,
The only witness for the defence was Capone
who testified at some length and told story
greatly at variance with Santore. He laid
all the blame on his companion. The testi-
mony is about all in and the arguments will
take place tomorrow.
