THE NEwBURGf VICTIMS.
Three Bodies Recoyered-Weeks May Be Re-
quired 30 Reach the Others.

s WHEELING, w. Va. Jan 23-The bodies of
three victims of the explosion in the Oriel shaft
at Newburg w. Va, which were found yester-
day, were brought to the surface day, and after
being viewed by the coroners jury were taken
In charge by undertaken Berber. to be prepared
for burial Their names are; Daniel Miller the
eager. whose station was at the bottom of the
shaft; L Timmons. the fire boss. and his SON
William, trapper. The bodies were terribly
mangled, and were crushed beyond recognition.
The recovery of the bodies proceeds very slowly,
on account of the many difficulties encountered.
SO far, the exploring party has been able to en-
ter the main heading only about 300 or 400 feet
Fears were felt to-day that another explosion
might take place, on account of the rapid &C
cumuiatlon of gas, but the repairs being made
TO the ventilating shaft are expected to avoid
THIS Thls morning an excursion party of ex-
perts, composed of j. Little, of Shawnee, Grant
county. superintendent of the Big Vein mine. of
the Elk Garden region of ex-senator Henry G.
Davlss mines; G.. I'll. Richards, superintendentof
the daston mine, at Paramount; Robert
Jack, superintendent of the West Pair
mount mines, and Superintendent Lax
ton, Of the Oriel mine, descended the
shaft and remained down for two hours. Mr..
Richardson has explored further than any one
that has yet been down. He reports the place full
or gas, and In very dangerous condition There
IS also great danger of the pump, which has thus
far been keeping the mines clear Of water,
breaking down. owing to the debris at the bot
tom of the suction pipes. Should this
happen. it will greatly complicate mat
tiers. and in. order to avoid it. all
efforts are being directed toward clearing
this rubbish away. The experts have decided
that to recover the bodies, without causing
further explosion, it will be necessary to rebuild
the broken bulkheads. This makes, in all prob
ability, the recovery Of the bodies the work of
several days, if not. weeks. AS far as known,
the miners werH working in four parties at the
extreme limits. Large crowds have been at the
mine all day. excursion trains having been run
from all nearby stations.

Man and Wife Murdered.

CLOvRRDALE CAL, Jan. 23-Details reached
here to-day of double murder, the victims of
which are prominent farmer, Jesse G. Wicker
shall, and wife. The tragedy occurred at Mr.
Wickershalrs ranch, about twenty miles from

found sitting in a chair in the dining room,
dead, with the blood oozing from wound in
the breast and from another in the head.
Mrs. Wickershall was found dead
in the bed. her hands and feet bound,
and a wound in her breast. The valuables on
both bodies were intact showing that robbery
was not the object of the crime All the wounds
were inflicted with shotgun Strong circum-
stantial evidence points to q Chinese cook en-
ployed by the murdered couple. who is nowhere
to be found. It is believed the Chinaman took the
early morning train on Tuesday at Cloverdale,
for San Francisco, and embarked on steamer
that sailed from there for Hong Kong on
Wednesday.

MIR. TiIden,s Testimony Is Wanted.

New YORK, Jan. 23.-Counsel applied to the
United States Circuit Court to-day for a sub.
poena for Mr.. Samuel J. Tiiden, to obtain his
evidence in behalf of Samuel Mitchell and James

John P. Mitchell, of Marquette, Mich. The
application recites that in April and May, 1867.
Win l.. Wetmore. acting for the New York Mine
Company, made three notes of So 900 each,
which were discounted by John p Mitchell.
The notes have never been paid, and no infor-

obtained. As Mr. Tilden owns Ia, $50 shares
out of the capital stock Of 20, 900 shares, it is
thought possible that he can enlighten the
creditors.

stitch, and you wish to increase the

treble: then double crochet on the side
of the treble, and a single on the double.
Thus with one stitch only on the chain,
