BLOWN TO ATOMS.
An Alabama Convict Dismembered
by Dynamite.
Death Preferred to Life In the Mines
Shocking Sequence OF Dreadful
Race With Bloodhounds.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 20.-Bob
Crawford, white convict at the Pratt
mines, suicided Saturday by blowing
himself up with dynamite while at
work in the mines. Crawford was one
of three men that escaped Thursday
night. He was recaptured Friday by
Warden Rodgers and party with
bloodhounds. Jim Morrison and Gar
low Thrasher, the two men who we're
with Crawford when he escaped, were
never caught When taken Crawford
was in terrible condition OF mind and
body having been rendered such by his
escape and the race with the dogs. His
hands and arms were full Of thorns and
his feet cut by stones. All his clothes
were torn to shreds in his six miles run
through the bushes. Crawford made
desperate resistance, but was overpow-
cred by the officers He then begged
Rogers to shoot him, saying he would
never live to 60 back to the mines.
Rogers slapped his face and took him
back to the mines This was Fri.
day morning. Saturday Crawford was
sent out to work as usual. His duty
was to mine coal. He went into the
mines, but told the other men that he
intended to kill himself, and the next
load taken out OF the mines by the
dump-cars would be his dead body. A
few hours afterward fearful explosion
was heard and the manglcd body OF
Crawford was taken out of the mine
where he had been at work. He had
carried out his desperate design and had
ended his own life. 1t seems that he
laid down and placed a stick of dynamite
under his body, connecting it with
small flame burning a few feet away by
fuse. When the fuse was communicated
to the dynamite, an explosion followed,
and the unfortunate man was blown to
fragments. The sight was terrible
one. The other convicts in the mine
were near by at the time, but the cxplo-
sion occurred before they approached
close to Crawford. The dead prisoner
had been sent up from this county for
burglary

lie thought the men must adj be
safe in one Of the breasts. This
news caused great rejoicing among tho
rescuers. They thought sure the whole
party must be safe. The news was
sent to the people on the outside and
there was great cheering. But this Joy
OF the multitude was short lived. Russ
died as soon as he was brought into tho
open air. He had inhaled the fatal gas.
Inc rescuing party, who had pushed
their way further into the mine, came
across 10 dead bodies in the third lift OF
the Baltimore vein. The men were
clasped in each others arms. They were
brought to the surface as soon as possi-
BILE. The ghastly appearance of the
bodies cast gloom over the people,
and their lamentations were pitiable
to hear. The conclusion was almost
positive that all tho men must be dead.
such proved to be the case. At
1918 Foreman Reese, of the rescuing
gang, reached the chamber where the
men took refuge. Eighteen bodies
were found huddled together. The
sight was sickening. Some of the bod
les had no heads and others were minus
hands and feet. AS quickly as possible
the bodies were brought to the surface.
AS soon as dead body made its appear
ance at the mouth of the pit some rela.
lyes would cry out in distress; "Oh,
that is my poor papa or "Oh, my dar.
ling husband; that is him; l can tell by
his coat" When Michael Hay
was brought up, his wife and
nine children threw themselves
on what remained of his body. Strong
men had to turn away with tears in
their eyes. Finally the manifestation
OF grief became so great that guard
had to be placed around the mouth Of
the pit Superintendent Phillips says
the men were killed by an explosion OF
gas. When the cave-in occurred, all the
lights were blown out. 1t was then
dangerous to relight the lamps, but
Miner Allen insisted on relighting his.
He said 81 am going to have light to
get out of here" As soon as he lit his
lamp the gas exploded. Out of the 81
