DROPPED INTO A NINE.

LOFTY, Pa, Sept. 6.-The little min
ing town of Scotch Valley, In Lacka-
wanna county, near this place, was
3Tsllowed up Wednesday night in one
81 the most complete mine cave-ins
Ever known in this region. The scene
OF disaster Is on the slope Of Mount
lookout, the score of houses compris-
8pg the hamlet being at the mouth of
Hhe shaft of the Mount Lookout col
tisry.
The widest excitement prevails
throughout the region and details are
kragmentary. 1t is known, however,
That the dozen houses on either side OF
The principal street of the hamlet are
Completely swallowed up in the
gaping hole, and nothing can
be seen of the other buildings Of the
town but the roofs, gables and chin
neys. 1t is impossible to give ac-
curately the number of fatalities or If
there are any. Rescuing parties are
now exerting every means to release
The occupants of the engulfed dwell
tngs. One of the buried houses has
taken fire.
Cause OF the Disaster.
The cavern was caused by the CIV
ing way of timber supports in the
workings of the Mount Lookout col
liery which has not been in operation
for about two years and has been
neglected in consequence. At about
2 o'clock in the afternoon the
inhabitants of the hamlet were
startled by rumbling and re-
ports like falling rock in the caverns
Of the abandoned mine many hundreds
pf feet below them. The terror
stricken townspeople were further
Mortified when the ground trembled
and swayed like an earthquake be-
meath them. Report was followed by
report, and accompanied by other
tremors, and the village sank out of
sight in the gaping cavity.
Fifty Miners Imprisoned.
Meanwhile some fifty miners were
imprisoned in the colliery. They had
been at work in another portion Of
The mine and all means Of exit from
the mine was completely blocked by
the cavern. James Perrin, one of the
oldest of the miners, collected the men
and started to lead them up through a
tunnel which had been used as an air
shaft, but which leads to the surface
Through series of deep slopes. The
rescuing party on the surface had made
an attempt to cut a passage through
the mass of debris which blocked the
main entrance. Failing in this some of
the more daring of the rescuers came

imprisoned miners were struggling
upward. The men were carried to the
surface where great crowd of ex-
CITED, panic-stricken people was await
ing them. All the persons who could
he found have been taken from the
ruins, although the full roll of those
to be accounted for cannot yet be pre-
pared.
