Fatal Trap.
LoNpoN, Jan. iG.-A calanitous accident
occurred to-day at Penzance. Cornwall.
While number of men were at work in
the Wheeler ore mine, 1T that place, water
suddenly rushed in and drowned many of
the miners.
As soon as the rush of the water was
heard those who were nearest to tho main
shaft rushed into the cage and were quickly
drawn TO the surface. Others at distance
were ovcrtaken by the water and their
cries could be heard reaounding through
the galleries.
The number of men drowned has been
asCertainGd to be 80
IT CAME FROM ANOTHER MINE.
Later dispatches from Penlance state
that the water which flooded the mine
came from an adjacent mine, which has
been closed for many years. Water had
accumulated in vast quantities in the
abandoned mine and suddenly burst its
way through. Hundreds Of thousands Of
tons of water poured into the Wheeler
mine. sweeping away ladders flooding the
workings and dcstrOving life.
