GOLDEN, Colo, Sept. 10. Following
are the names of the men killed in the

yesterday: John Murphy, William
William Collins. Jack Collins, Joseph
ALLEN, Joseph Hotter, William Bow
den, David Lloyd, John Morgan, Hem
ny Huseman, Richard Rowe, and one
other man whose name is not yet
learned. The men who lost their lives
were at work in drift from the bot
tom of the shaft, $50 feet down, and
were 500 feet from the shaft. The
drift runs alongside OF what is known
as the sold Lowell mine.' Yesterday
morning there was fifty feet of
water in the old shaft. at 6
O'Clock last evening the shaft
was visited by the manager of
the White Ash to determine what con-
neetion it might have with rush of
water noticed in the White Ash mine
when it " as found TO be dry, the wa
ter having all passed INTO the shaft
where the men were at work. There
is not the slightest hope of rescuing
any of the eleven men alive and it viii
require days if not weeks of hard
work to reach their bodies. Around
the entrance of the mine are hnddled
together the Widows and orphans of
the victims.
