WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Feb l5.-The
mining town of Plymouth is in mourn
ing over the terrible accident that oc-
cured in the Gaylord colliery Tues
day in which thirteen men lost their lives
while in the discharge of their duty.
All the victims with the exception OF
two have families One of them lost
his wife only month ago and four lit

The GAYLORD mine is owned by Dan

orators in the anthracite regions. 1t
is operated by the Kingston Stone Coal
company of which Edwards is president.
The best coal in the mine was taken
out years ago. Then it was abandoned
because it could not be operated with
profit. About three weeks ago the
company decided TO resume operations,
and party of expert miners was sent
to the mines to make an examination.
Foreman Piegon with 12 selected vol
unteers went down to see what could
be done. The descent was made and
Picton's object was to get as near as
possible to the dangerous part or where
the squeeze was the greatest in or
der to stay its progress by bea1ning the
roof with heavy timbers. The suppo-
sition is that the men were busily at
work timbering when the rocky roof
came tum bling down, crushing them
out of semblance to humanity and put
ting wall of debris between them and
the mouth of the shaft 400 feet in
thickness.
At first there was some hope that if
the men could be reached in q reason
able time they could be saved. This
was false hope. however. The rescu-
ing party had been in the mine only a
short time when they were obliged to
retreat on account of further caving
A second rescuing party under the
leadership of Superintendent James
W. Davis also came back thoroughly
disheartened. All hopeof rescuing the
men alive was given up.
When the news reached the wives
and children of the unfortunates heart
rending scenes took place. Women
tainted, children wept bitterly. and
