Cured this morning in the Park slip coal
pit near Bridgend, Glamorganshre, Wales.
while 100 men were in the mine. AT 6
O'Clock this evening rescung party
assembled to the surface bearing
with them two men whom they had
found near the bottom of the pit Both the
men were badly burned ana unconscious.
The men were carefully attended to by the
physicians in attendance who however,
held out little hope of their recovery. They
say they have evidently inhaled fire and
that death will surely follow
Shortly after these men were brought up
the flames from the burning pit assembled
and set fire to the structures at the pit
head. When the flames issued from the pit
all hope was abandoned Those who escaped
in the explosion have surely been sufrocated
or burned to death.
The disaster is one of the worst that has
occurred in the mining district for years.

eusued, and switchman named Quinn
struck Sweeney a violent blow knocking
him down, causing blood to pour from
Sweeney's nose. Quinn got his leader g
head against telegraph pole and punched
and pounded him until pulled away.
While Sweeney was in drug store a
number OF strikers assembled on the side
walk in front Of the place and threatened
to do further violence to the grand master.
The police were called to dispense the
crowd.
Bitter feeling against Sweeney has de-
veloped among the strikers, who consider
that they have been duped and betrayed by
him.

in their old places and Arbitration Commls-
sioner Donovan is quoted as saying that the
railroads. with the possible exception of the
Central, will take back as many of the old
men AS possible excluding all who have

away. lie was ordered to halt but failed
to do So and one of tho soldiers raised his
musket AMI fired. The ball took effect in
the boys stomach, causing a fatal wound.
