A MINE EXPLOSION.
Nine Men Killed and Others Injured
in a Nova Scotia Colli,Ty.

HALIFAX, n. g., Feb. ll.-At Q
o'clock last night an explosion oc-
Cured in an old pile Of the
Vale colliery at Westville,
Pictou county, Nova Scotia. The
heavy storm yesterday aud last night
seriously interfered with telegraphic
service and little more than the bare
facts can be obtained.
1t n rumored In this city that 100
men were in the mine at the time,
but 10 Is reported from New Glasgow
that the people heard Of only
fifteen being down. The latter
report Ia likely TO be nearer tbs truth,
as New Glasgow Is only seven miles
distant from Westville, Whether the
men are alive or dead il unknown at
present. A fire broke out immediate
~ after the explosion, and men have
gone down into the pit to attempt to
get the Il 4mes under control.
A telegram received here states that
the bark Ernna, from New York
January II for Antwerp, has been
passed at sea, dlsmasted, abandoned
and on fire, No further particulars
are ~ nhnds
NINE MEN KILLED.
NEW GLASGOW, N. g., Feb 1.-THE

ing disaster last night. The cOll.ery
10 distant some six miles from the
town. VIM. Moore, the general BUSH
ness manager, has juat returned from
the mine, and tue following details
have been hastily gathered fron, him:
About 9.45 last night sviOlent oXplo-
sion occurred at the Vale colliery. The
flames from the burning gas came
rushing no the main slope. As soon
81 possible John Greener, manager
at the mine, descended the shaft, but
he was unable 10 get near any Of the
men In the mine, OF whom there were
about nineteen IN the pit. After sew.
eral efforts the Tescuing party was
successful In reaching a party Of
men, seven in number. They
were brought 10 the surface
and are all alive. and, with the excrp-
ton Of a few trining bruises, are unin.
jured. Later on, and shortly before
day break, three bodies were found and
brought up.
The nnmes OF those killed are Jehn
A. Campbell, John A. Cameron and
Thomas Hall.
The stRblemRn IL known 10 be dead,
but his body Is still IN the shaft. Nine
men are known to be killed outright.
The damage IL not nearly 30 great as
was at first supposed. The fire Is all
out.

papers have their columns bordered
with black as token Of the grief
which 10 universally felt over Gen.
Gordon's fate. Some OF the papers
cOntine their mourning emblems to
the editorial page, but In most of them
the column-rules are reversed on ali
psges.
The News says: 1.-THE age of chivalry
Ia revived again in Gen. GOrdon's his.
tory and tho whole world Is thrilled
with passionate grief at this Christian
warriors death"
The Standard alone refuses TO be-
lieve that Gen Gordon Is dead and
clings TO the shadow of hope that he
may he prisoner or may have es-
capped south.
