were at once taken by nineteen men.

just abandoned. and the cage was

rope had been unwound but q couple

windlass, when there was a sudden
snap. u cry of horror from the shaft in
which the cage had a moment before

from the men who had a moment be-
fore come to the surface. The
rope had broken and the cage.
with its nineteen inmates. was pre-
cipitated to the bottom of the mine.
1t was some little time before any as
sistance could be sent them The shaft
down which they had plunged to death
was useless, and other ways of getting
at the place where they had fallen were
roundabout Fortunately there was
some help for the dead and dying men
in the mine itself A number of miners
who were through work and waiting to
be relieved. were ut the bottom of the
shaft waiting for the cage to take them
out Amidst them, narrowly missing
some. the cage dashed. II broke, and
before their horror-stricken eyes were
the mangled bodies of the companions
whom they were awaiting.
When they had recovered from the
shock word of the accident was sent
through the mine. and from the dark
ness came men hurrying to the relief.
There was little. however, that could
be done. OF the nineteen men who
made the fearful ride. seventeen were
dead, their forms crushed out all SEM
blance to human beings, while the two
who were yet breathing have no hopes
of recovery. Their comrades bore them
out of the ruin and awaited help from
above, but any aid that could have been
given them was useless. The Anaconda
mine is the biggest in this territory. It
employs 400 men and was reopened,
after long closing. October 90. The
fact that IL was reopened on a Friday,
was commented on at the time by

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 5.-While
there have been rumors in circulation
in East Tennessee, during the last two
days, that mob intends to attack the
branch prison at Tracy City, il is
thought there is little foundation for
them. There are go convicts at these
prisons, and extra guards have been
placed on duty at each of them.
Several heavy boxes, supposed to con.
tain arms, have been sent by express
from the state armory to the officials of
the prisons. Gov. Buchanan has or.
dered the state superintendent of pris.
ons to take vigorous action. IL is GER.
tain that a mob would not now move on
Tracy City and Inman prisons unless
they were determined to do or die.
Gov. Buchanan, in an interview. could
not say whether the leaders Of the mob.
il arrested, could be convicted in Amber.
son county.
Speaking of the release of the con.
victs, the governor said there should
have been guard at each of these
prisons. The trouble has been that the
lessees and the representative of the
state have each refused to pay for extra
guards, and there have been none. The
stockades should have been defended
with powder and ball. The two re
naming prisons must be defended Wig.
orously, for doing so is not only sus-
tanning the law, but it is defending the
good citizens of the state against dan.
ger from criminals at large.
The prisons must be guarded and the
matter OF cost be settled afterwards bv
