by u Gas Explosion.
A dispatch from Wilkesbarre, Pa, says
A fall of rock took place in the Noting
ham shaft Of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre
Coal Company in No. 8 plane, which drove
the accumulated gas into tho gangways,
where ten men had been at work with max led
lamps, and an explosion soon followed. All
the men were more or less seriously injured

hands: his injuries are said to be fatal.
Jcs.ph Jones was fatally burned. 9ohn Z.
Thomas was burned on the face and hands.
David Fox is seriously burned and his re-
coyery is doubtful, and Thomas Lake was
slightly cut on the head.
Five men are imprisoned in the mine, and
there is little hope OF their being taken ou'
| alive. At the time when the fall OF rock took
| place John Dunston. the fro boss, was on his
| way from the fifth to the sixth lift carrying
| his naked lamp. This, it is said, fired a body
| OF gas, which exploded with great force,
shattering the gangwnys and breaking the
| timbers, causing large quantities ol Tool roch
| and coal to fall.
The debris closed the outlet for the miners
who were 10 the interior Of the mine making
repairs, entombing John Crossin, ID ,vid j.
