PLUNGED TO DEATH.
Terrible Fate of Two Men in
the COkedale Mine.
THEY FALL DOWN THE SLOPE.
senssless Before They Reach the Bot
TOM They Plunge Into Water
and Are Drowned.

Two men employed at the Cokedale
mines Of the Green River Coal and Coke
Company fell down q shaft there yester-
day and we're found dead in deep pool of
water at the bottom. Their Lames were
Albert Standall and John T. Howells.
The two men, who were carpenters, had
gone down the incline in No. II vein soon
after midnight to repair . plank in the
skidway, along which water or material is
hauled to the surface. Usually in doing
this kind of work they had stood in the
barrel a. it hung suspended, but Standall
said on this occasion that the rope always
got in his way when he did so, and. when
he reached the place, he rang the bell and
the barrel was hauled up. The two men
were wet and slippery from the constant
dripping of water from the roof,
while they nailed in the plank. 1t is sup
posed that the man who was the highest
slipped and slid against the other, carry
ing him with him down the foot of the
incline, which is $50 feet deep and slopes
at an angle of 81 degrees. By the time
they reached the bottom they must have
been senseless. and there they were pre-
cipitated into the stump, in which there
was about eight feet of water, and were
drowned.
After receiving no signal from them for
about two hours, the engineer began to
fear something was wrong. and some men
went down to search. They found the
bodies in the stump. and hauled them up.
Howells' left leg was broken. but no
bruises were found on his body. STAN
dall's left arm was broken and his mouth
and chin were bruised. As neither suffered
injuries in themselves fatal, the theory
that they fell senseless into the water and
were drowned is most probably correct.
DR.. Frank Carroll was deputized by the
coroner and held an inquiry. He decided
that death was accidental and that an in
quest was unnecessary.
Both were favorably known in Frank
lin. Howells having been . knight of
Pythias and an Odd Fellow. Howells
was unmarried and had no rel
atives in this section. His flu
neral will be held in this
city at o'clock this afternoon. Sandal
was also unmarried, but had brother at
Blanchard's camp near Edison. who will
take charge of his funeral. His remains
were brought to Bonney & Stewards un-
dertaking rooms.

A Putrid Body At Black Diamond.
Probable Victim Of Cold.


The body of A. B. Downey was found
under the first trestle above Black Dia-
mond at 1 O'Clock yesterday. The body
was in a terrible condition and showed
that it had lain out on the ground at least
three weeks. The flesh of the throat was
putrid and worms had eaten it and the
muscles and flesh along the back bone.
DR.. D. NJ. Stone, who viewed the re-
mains, wired Coroner Horton and received
word that Deputy Frank Carroll, who was
at Franklin. would attend to the case. He
investigated the case and found an inquest
unnecessary. He made arrangements to
have the body buried near the place where
it was found and to have the grave marked,
in case further information about it should
be obtained.
In the dead mans pockets were found
two notices from the Seattle Transfer Com
pany of the arrival of household goods,
one dated July II and the other July %.
1892. He had also had a railroad time
book and razor. but no money.
tits supposed that Downey. while drunk,
was walking along the railroad. and fear
ing to cross the trestle. went under it, and
becoming exhausted in the deep snow, was
frozen to death.

THE "MERCUkY" ASSAULT CAsl

Character Of All Parties Concernsd the
Subject Of Lawyers Talk.
The hearing of Don E. Johnson, who
shot w. E. King in the shoulder at the
time John Considins, proprietor of the
Peoples theater, cleaaed out the Mercury
Office and beat Frank Lavere, the editor,
in such terrible mApner, occupied the
afternoon and speci4 evening session in
Justice Caldwell's court yesterday. At the
close the justice withheld his decision
until tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock.
The case as presented by the state agreed
in all particulars with the report a.
printed in the Posr-IErELLIGENcER at the
time of. the row, With Cha exception Of tho
point that Frank Lavare. who was so Sc
verely beaten by Considine, the central
figure in the whole affair, attempted to
draw a revolver before he was struck.
Charles s. Underhill. who saws he 10 a de-
tective and was outside the door when the
ARRAY commenced. swore that such was
true. The defense, on the contrarypiniro-
duced witnesses to show that Lavere
did not try to get revolver
and was attacked before q word
was spoken. Don E. Johnson, the defend
ant in the case, was put on the stand and
told his story almost exactly as he gave 1t
to a PosT-INTELIIGENCER reporter in the
city Jail the evening of the shooting. He
said that the reason he shot was because
he saw his partners life in danger and
King was coming toward him with his
hand in his coat pocket. He thought it
was a case of life or death with him and
he shot, not with the idea of killing King,
but of crippling him.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Melvin G..
Winstock made the plea for the state and
argued that the shooting was uncalled for;
that Considine in his attack upon Lavere
had before him the possibility of the lat
ter's shooting him. He showed that Con-
sidine went to the Office accompanied by
King with the object of having the matter
settled, but not with guns. King never
carried a revolver, but Considine had done
so fifteen years. and the fact that he had
gun on him when he entered the office did
not show malice aforethought.
Attorney Whitrock replied for the de-
Tense, and declared that Considine at
tackled the proprietors of the Mercury IN
their CASTLE and had gone there with
blood in his eyes" He quoted MANY
cases to show that the defendant was
justified in shooting. even though the
danger from King might have been imag-
mary. Before he got through the reputa-
ton of both King and Consid,ne was
spoken Of in q scathing manner ]. c.
Howe, formerly . Dramatic Star reporter
and who is now practicing law in the
lower courts, made plea for the defend
ant, in which he showed the character of
the assault and the basis OF the trouble in
a forceful and logical manner
Attorney Winstock closed for the state
with a reply to the arguments Of the de.
tense and raked the character of the Mer-
cury men as hard as the opposing counsel
did that of the principal witnesses for the
prosecution.
The decision will be given tomorrow
morning.
