wILKESBARRE'S HORROR
Floods Pouring Into the Vol
cano of Coal.
ENToMBED MEN MUST BE DEAD.

IL Is Said That no One Is to Blame. and
That Expense Has Not been spared In
she Attempts at Rescue-Two Miners
Fatally Injured.
WrLKEsRARRE Pa, March g. There is no
change in the situation at the South Wilkes
barre colliery, where the eight men are
entombed, and hope Of getting them ous
alive is gone. That the men are dead is now
about certain, but there seems to be good
ground for believing that they passed into
an air course where they were subsequently
overcome with smoke, and gas, aud where
probably they died.
Long aud Tedious Delay.
Under the present condition Of things in
the mine, with the blazing tunnel widening
and strengthening the barriers to thorough
investigation, there is no telling when
search mission will succeed in deciding the
fate Of the victims The flooding process
continues, but there must be long and tedious
delay before tbs Gre viii be subdued by
this means.
Mine Inspector Williams and other ofil-
cials are revolving other schemes the adop-
tion OF any one Of which will probably be
soon decided upon. Steam appears to be
the speediests method suggested and will,
no doubt, be enlisted.
The Searehers WIN Not Give Up.
In the meantime all is being done that is
possible toward getting information as to
the fate Of the missing men, and until every
device is exhausted the search will not be
abandoned There are now eight or ten
streams of water being poured down the
air shaft Engines Nos. . and 3 are at work,
as well as the Kingston fire engine. The
two former are stationed at plugs and the
latter is drawing water from the main
sewer In addition a donkey engine has
been erected below the Vulcan Iron works
and is pumping water from the creek. The
five inch mains from the Crystal Spring are
also pouring their streams under pressure
into the mine.
Great volumes Of bad smelling smoke, gas
and steam continue 10 pour out Of the air
shaft The steam is produced by the stream
OF water which is being poured down the
Stanton shaft This makes its way through
the blazing portion of the mine aud meets
the rapidly rising water below.
No Ons to Blame.
In a conversation with Mine Inspector
Williams he said "lhere is no one TO blame
for this unfortunate accident. The boy who
touched of the feeder probably stumbled
and fell This brought his lamp close 20 the
mouth Of the feeder, which took fire. Since
she accident the Lehigh and Willresbarre
Coal company has spared no expense in at
tempting 10 reach the spot where the bodies
are supposed 10 be. The officials here have
been willing TO adopt any measure for relief
