WHEELING, W. Va, Nov. 21.-The most
appalling mine disaster that ever occurred
IN this section of the state occurred yes
terday shortly after noon at the Blanch
coal mines on the Panhandle railway at
Golfers Station. A new miner, an Ital-
ian, set off an overchargcd blast which ig-
nlted the coal dust in the mine and fear

and destruction in its path. There were
forty-eight men in the mine at the time

Antonio Sattie, Mazzle Gissiedeo; the last
five were married and Donnelly leaves ten
children The following are badly in
jurcd: Jose Refel; Rattle Necki, will die;
Jasper Lawrence and Thomas Morris.
Blew Two Men Out Oi the Mine.
After the explosion there was terrific
whirlwind in the mine, carrying every
thing before it. Donnelly and Roony
We're in the mine some distance from and
going toward the mouth. The force of
the explosion drove them nearly 100 yards
out of the mouth of the mine and landed
Roony on the railroad track, killing him
instantly. while Donnclly landed in a
gully, striking his head against post
His brains were dashed out and scattered
for yards around His wife was the first
TO find him and she swooned away and is
now lying FRUSTRATED by the shock. There
Is little hope that she will recover The
news of the disaster quickly spread and in
& few moments hundreds of people Were
crowded about the mouth of the mine
Many heartrendlng scenes Were enacted.
Second Accident of the Kind.
The wives and children of the miners
were frantic and strong men were over
come. In a short time rescuing party
consisting of George Benbeon, Nick Kern
Is, Arthur Ward, John Stewart and Will
lam Davis was organized and went into
the mines after the bodies. When the
bodies We're brought to the surface many
women swooned at the sight. Prosecuting

part in the investigation.
Sudden Death Passed Over Him.
There were miraculous escapes when the
explosion occurred. William Davis was
in the entry 80 feet from the entrance,
and when he heard the explosion he lay
down near the rib of the mine and the
whirlwind, carrying rocks fire, and death,
passed over him. An empty coal car
standing at the entrance of the mine, was
blown twenty-five yards. The mine is
owned by w. +. Smith, of Wellsville, and
l.. o. Smith, of Cumberland. The min
ers charge that the accident was due to
the inexpcrience of the Italian miners and
declare they will not work with them any
more.

GRIGGS WILL NOT RUN.
THE JUDGE WILL STAY on THE
BENCH,
And will Not Enter the Congressional
Race. What He Said When Inter,
viewed by The News.

NAeWeO NY AAC 1NSNS'
Judge Jim Griggs definitely an
nounces that he will not be candidate
for congress.
A number Of newspapers in the dis
trlct have been saying some very COM
plimentarY things about the Judge, late
ly, in connection wish congressional
honors, and people in all parts of the
district have urged him to announce his
candidacy,
It was reported in the city Saturday.
that he had publicly stated that he
would be candidate, and before he left#
for Colquitt to hold Miller court The
News called upon him to know if he
would verify the report. When asked
about it, the judge said:
81 shall not be in the race for the
democratic nov nation for congress this
year
"Then, there is not even q applicability
of your becoming a candidateg he az
asked.
"rheTe is not. Let me say however,
that / am extremely grateful to my
friends in all parts of the district who
have been Kind enough to urge me to
make the race and TO assure me of
their active and earnest support,
and | hope THE News will thank
them for me. | am young yet, and
have but lately been elected TO a
high and honorable Office, which 1t is my
sincere desire to fill with satisfaction to
the people and with honor to myself.
Tc this I shall devote all of my energies
and whatever of talent | may possess,
and if sue coed the measure of my am
bition shall be entirely full for some
time to come. | shall be candidate be-
fore the legislature for reelection to
the judgeship of the Pataula circuit"
The announcement of Judge Griggs
that he will not be a candidate for con-
gress will be received with regret by his
numerous admires in every county in
| the district. Although the youngest
judge in the state, if not in the Union,
he has made brilliant record acd has
attained an enyiable prominence as a
young Georgian. Besides, he possesses
an unusually strong persona following
which - ould have stood him in great
advantage in the race.
The decision of Judge Griggs not to
enter the race will bring on more con-
gressOnal talk, and new developments
may be expected.
| In the meantime, keep your eye on
Terrell. She has other gentlemen with
aspirations who are capable of making
the campaign mighty interesting one.
