coal mine took place today at Apedale, Stafford
shire. Ten persons we're killed outright and
several others were severely injured The
bodies Of the miners lave been extricated from
the portion Of the mine where the explosion
took place. The cause Of the disaster is sup
posed to be the presence of fredamp in the
mine and the foolhsrdiness Of one of the
miners after the presence Of the dangerous gas
was first discovered.

seven men and three boys in . terribly
battered and almost unacceptable condition
were brought up. The couiery belongs TO the

endeavored TO retreat from Taulbess assault
OF course no lawyer will admit weakness in
his case while It 10 being tried 90 it may not be
at all remarkable that counsel on both sides Of
this case express considerable confidence Of Q
verdict their way. From the governments
point Of view the strongest element they have
to combat Is the natural effect on the fury Of
the sympathy that exists for Kincaid on ac-
count of the long persecution inflicted on him
by Taulbee. The defense, however. maintains
that the act Of shooting was justified BY the
immediate circumstances without reference to
preceding events.
