A Horrible Catastrophe Narrowly Averted
In Fros,burg Mine.

In Fros,burg Mine.
CUMBERLAND MD, August 3O.-Word
reached here at noon to day that forty
miners at work in the Allegheny Mine,
near FrOstburg, had been shut in and
probably drowned. Water had broken in
from the abandoned Htna Mine, and had
driven the miners further away from the
main headway. Excitement ran high and
crowds collected, relatives Of the forty
miners being in the majority.
After two hours of suspense William
Stevens and Hugh Meen entered the main
headway and, wading through the water,
finally discovered the miners one mile
awsy from the opening. All were res
eued. The water began pouring into the
mine early in the morning, and the men
were afraid to attempt escape as they were
wo king some distarce from the opening
and we're ignorant of the cause. Several
animals are still in tho mine and will
probably perish.
