DEATH IN A COAL MINE,
Coal Creek Started by an Explosion Of
Fire Damp.

The Canon City Clipper gives the fol-
owing account Of . terrible explosion
which occurred at the Garfield Coal Mine
{No. 2) at Coal Crock, eight miles east Of
Canon City, Monday night at half-past 8
o'clock.
The Garfield is owned and opersted by
The Colorado Coal and Iron Company. The
solliery had been idle for some time until
Iust a few days ago, when a small force
was put at work by Superintendent Wal
lace putting the mine in order for contin-
ious operation.
At the hour above mentioned some of the
men carelessly entered the main workings
with naked lamps, and q fearful explosion
If fre-damp at once ensued, hurting them
about and instantly killing two of the num-
Ger. The greatest excitement and conster-
cation followed and as the report of the ex-
plosion rcsounded over the town and the
news spread to the inhabitants, q scene Of
anguish followed that bessars description
tions, eager to aid in tde rescue Of the un-
fortunate mines, while relatives were
weeping for loved ones.
Eleven men were in the mine at the
time, among them being Superintendent
Henry Wallace and Pete S. Galloway, both
Of whom were instantly killed, and Henry
Dodd and James Wallace, brother Of the
Head superintendent, who were so fright
fully mangled that they are lying at deaths
door. John Murphy and Tom Cunning
ham were also bodily injured. The other
Eve miners, whose names could not be OBJ
tanned, were seriously burned and bruised,
but not fatally.
All were speedily rescued by willing
hands and those least injured related the
trying ordeal through which they had
passed. 1t was wonderful miracle that
all were not instantly killed. The damage
to the machinery was very light and the
workings are not greatly damaged. II IL
impossible to estimate the loss at present

Wreck of an Oatmeal Mill,

CHICAGO. ILL.,. Dec. ll.-Shortly b.
took place in divers oatmeal mill, three
story brick building on Halstesd Street
near Fulton. The mill was surrounded by
n number OF frame huildings The roof Of
the mill was raised in the air and IL fell
upon several Of these buildings, crushing
them. No lives are known to have been
lost, however. outside Of the night force
employed in the mill.
OF these Charles Miller, the engineer,
and John Smith and Ernest Castor, millers,
are known to be in the ruins. John
Holmes, another miller, was blown out Of .
sscond-story window into the street nd
picked up fatally injured.
The fire which epsued lasted an hour
The greatest damage, next to the building
itself, was in the destruction of window
glass in the vicinity, A. the entire fronts Of
the buildings for blocks on either side Of
the mills are cracked and many windows
were broken.
A battalion of 20 hranen and over 100
volunteers are at work clearing away the
ruins. Ernest CAspar, one Of the three msa,
is known to be dead. He was At work On
the engine cupola n the time. The cupela
was lifted almost entire, and thrown dis
tance of 60 feet upon the south side Of the
street, and the mutilased form of Casper Is
now somewhat under the wreck
John Christensen, q kiln man, is the So
ond known victim. but HIS BODY has net
been found.
Charles Miller, the engineer, is also
buried under the debris.
The proprietor and the manager of the
mill were on the ground early in the NOM
ing. but they have been unable to learn
positively as to the cause Of the sxplosion.
Each thinks that oatmeal dust may have
caused it, but the terrific force is unpre-
