A GURss AT TIE VERDICT.

pohoo AZ lHk NkhDICr,
This little town is excited and anxioul
TO hear what the jury has to say. The
fact that tho verdict was arrived at aitel
only an hours consultation leads many
TO think 1t censurps the company and
superintendent Lang. Whether |,
touches Inspector keigh1ey cannot be
guessed even.
ltis known that the testimony OF Fire
BOSS shearin, OF the Ferguson mine, and
Beth Worman, once mine boss of the
hahouing, had great weight with the
members Of the jury. -'''.s- l,l''0l
Inc trst witness swora that there
had been gas In the Hill Farm mine,
and that he had urged his brother to
come out.
Worman testified that years ago he
sunk bore hole into the Mahoniup
mine, which lies next to the Hill Farm.
and approached it with n drill hole,
Ihe opinion OF every expert and practi.
cal man who took the stand was to the
effect that If this Bore hole had been ap-
preached by drill hole No accident
"oulu uaVe OCCURRED.
WHAT THE TESTIMONY SHOWED.
The testimony showed that this bore
hole was entered by pick under orders
given by Hugh Doran, assistant mine
boss, acting under orders from Robert
Lang, Superintendent OF the mine.
Mine Boss Evans is supreme under
the ground, and, according to the tessi-
mony, should have given these orders.
L is on this ground that it is thought
the company and Superintendent Lang
have been censured.
Mine Inspector keighley said today
that all parties should have been repre-.
sented in the construction of the Coro.
ner's jury. He did mol object, however,
and was willing to abide by the result.
TIE RELIEF COMMITTEE NEEDS MONEY.
The Relief Committee still finds itself
in need Of funds, and is doing the very
best it can with what it has received.
The little blind girl whose father,
David Hay, was smothered by the smoke,
will 70 back TO the blind asylum. The
superintendent Of that institution sent
money enough to the Relief Committee
% keep her while she was here, and for-
Sarded a ticket to yet her back to the
Institution. Her father paid Sl00 year
or her instruction. She will remain at
he institution four years.
