More About the Crested Butte Disaster.
DENVER, Jan. 26-ItI Is impossible to

the sc lie o: tho Cres'td Butte disaster.
Through almost supt rdumsn efforts the
rescuiug party reachtd one chamber IN
tue mine this morning, where the men
were sup, o@ei to have been at the time
of the explosion. Here fife dead
boiie5 were found, but have not b zen
taken ont, aud the namGs have not cen
learned. The deadly gas is the source
OF imminent danger 10 the rescuers, who
are forced 10 ptocte1 most cautiously.
The excitement is intense.
For Ihirty-siX hours q force of fl ON
twenty 10 thirty men have heeu constant
ly al work searching for the dead bodies
of miners in the Crested Butte mine.
The work is slow, as the mine is BADLY
chokId up with debris. At noon to-
day ten bodies had been fund These
were all in the main entry, and being
subjected to the tull force of the blast
were terribly burned and ckeDe1, and
in several cases their arms aud l-gs
were broken. In this entry also the
carcasses of nine mules were found.
WoIkmen gained an entrance to cham
Der no this morning, but found no
bodies there. Searching further, 10
OF dies were found almost In heap. In
the air passage leading to the up cast,
near the entrance, fifty feet further back,
six more bodies were found. All had
evidently been suffocateo some had tied
handkerchief over their mouths. This
makes a total of thirty-four that have
been found, and include all that wereat
wo in chamber number one. Numb:r
two is further in the nine, and is un-
dOubtedly where the explosion took
place II Is expected that their bodies
will be found badly burned. 1t Is now
known that there were fifty-nine men
and boys in the mine. The cause of
the &C ,ident cannot be armed at pres

subject to gas, but the owners have done
everything possible to make it one OF
the best ventilated min, in the country.
The owners claim the air supply was
