MINERS FLOWN TO ATOMS.
An Explosion in a COlltery and Thirty
 Seven Workmem Missing.


 GRAFTON, West Virginia, Jan. 21.-The most disastrous mine explosion ever known in the annals of West Virginia mining cured at Newburg about 3o'clock this after noon in the shaft of the Newburg Orrel Coal company at that point. The shaft is 3S5 feet deep. At the bottom of it thirty seven miners, men and boys, were at work in the different gangways and chambers. At 2:45 pm, without a moments warn ing, a terrific explosion occurred, deaing death and destruction in the vicinity. The shock was felt throughout the village and created panic, especially among those who had relatives employed in the mine. large crowd quickly gathered around the mouth of the shaft all anxious to succor the entombed men. Several attempts were made to descend before a success full entrance could be effected. Finally MT. Riley Metz, accompanied by two other miners, entered the shaft and reached the heading in which the explosion took place, but were prevented from going further by the debris which choked up the little drift They were unable to discover anything but the shattered timbers of the mine which were strewn in every direction. Several subse- quent attempts were fruitless owing to the prevalence of "black damp which ren- dered it impossible to work in the mine The following are the names of the unfortunate persons whose fate is unknown and can only be sur1nised: Daniel Miller, eager, and his son aged fifteen; Mike Clarke and Mike Ken ney, 2niners, unmarried; William and Frank Laymeyer, John Conway, William Sansbury, A. Wier; John Timmons and his son, aged twelve; J. s. Lambert, Clinton Albright, Charles Tunley, Richard Bartley, his son, three stepsons and son-in-law; John Beyers, Peter Handley, two brot CTS named Weaver, Newton Moore, Frank Moon, J. s. Peyer, Andrew Scott, Jack Edwards, Arthur Ogden, Albert Williams, George Higgins, Adam Fort ner, John Carroll, James McGowan, Jack Carnby and Morgan Miller. It is feared that all of them were instantly killed or were suf- located. Efforts are being made to get at the men, but it is feared that they cannot be cached until to- morrow or later. The scenes about the shaft and in the homes of the imprisoned miners are heartrending. It is the general opinion among experienced miners that none of the men could have survived such a terrible ex- pIosion and that they are all dead

DoHERTY,s CAPTURE.

He Arrests Two of a Gang of Three
 Men Who Were Probably Planning
 to Rob the House of L.. HI. Bristol
 on Elm Street.
 While Officer Patrick Doherty was walking up Elm street, near Temple street, early last evening, he saw two men lodging about be- hind the trees on Temple street, near the corner of Elm street. Pretty soon the officer saw a third man come out from the yard in the rear of MT. Louis Bristol's house on the corner and hold short conversation with the two other men. The men then started down the street, and the officer started after them and managed to capture two of them the third party, who was the man the officer saw coming out of the yard, making his escape. At police headquarters the men, who proved to be Italians, gave their names as James Terhune and John Frondello and said they lived at No. 45 Hill street, in all Italian boarding house. Frondello, when asked what they were doing around the house, said that the third party, whom he street short time before, and after treating them to drink, had asked them to go back to the house with him. They did so, and while Terhune waited outside the yard the two others entered and the stranger asked Frondello to go down cellar by a door which was open and stay there until later when he would come back with Terhune and Frondel- 10 could then let them in the house, for what reason Frondello said he didn't know He said, however, that he refused to do as the man wanted him to, and so the three started down the street. After hearing the story the men were locked up on charge of attempted burglary. Officer Doherty went out to look for the third party, but failed to find him.

THE RIOToUs COKE WORKERS
Burning Everything Before Them

Burning Everything Before Them and Then Going Into Mass Meet ing.
 PITTsBURG, Jan. 21.-At West Lusinring this morning the striking miners and cokers, Hungarians, set fire to number of coal and coke cars belonging to the Baltimore & Ohio
 road. The cars were badly damaged. They also destroyed quantity of tools and a
 number of coke wagons belonging to the Coke company. At later hour they started for Dunbar to attend the convention. A | despatch from Dunbar this afternoon stated that there were fifteen hundred strikers in attendance at the mass meeting. They are very enthusiastic, but 80 far have been or
 derly. They seem determined to stick out
 for their rights. The meeting will be called
 to order at 3 D. m. Austro-Hungarian Consul
 Schomburg, of this city, has received a tele-
 gram from Greensburg requesting his pres enee there immediately.
 A few strikers were captured by the po- hcemen from this city to-day after excit- ing chase. The Hungarians who are causing
 the trouble were brought to this region to supplant the high priced laborers and the
 owners of the works get little sympathy from
 the general public The expense of resist ing the strike will largely exceed the amount
 they saved by the foreign labor ex-
 pertinent. Adjutant General Guthrie says the Governor has not issued and does not contemplate call for militia to proceed to the scene of the trouble, as the civil
 thorities are able to give all the protection
 necessary. The reports have been greatly
 exaggerated and thus far the appearance of
 the sheriff's posse has been sufficient to put ths strikers to fight.
 A Mt. Pleasant special says: Hostilities be- tween the officers and the Hungarians began
 here again at daybreak. Seventy five shots were fired and nine arrests were made
 Several conflicts occurred during the day,
 but none of the participants were hurt. Sev
 enteen arrests in all were made to-day and
 the entire party was taken to Greensburg
 Attempts will be made at several of the
 works to get the men to work tomorrow,
 which is sure to cause serious trouble.
