houses on each side of the principal
street of the hamlet are completely
swallowed up in the gaping hole and
nothing can be seen of the other build
ings of the town but the roof, gables
and chimueys. II is impossible to state
accurately the number of fatalities, or
| if there are any. Rescuing parties are
exerting every means to release the oc-
cupants of the engulfed dwellings.
One Of the buried houses mas taken
| fire. The cave-in was caused by the
giving way of timbers and supports in
the workings of the Mount Lookout
colliery, which has not been in opera
ton for about two years and had been
neglected in consequence.
At about O'Clock this afternoon the
inha bitants of the hamlet were startled
by rumbling reports like falling rock.
in the caverns of the abandoned mine,
many hundreds of. feet below them.
The ground trembled and Swayed like
an earthquake beneath them. Report
was followed by report and, accompan-
led by other tremors, the village sank
out of sight in the gaping cave. Mean
while some fifty miners were imprls-
oned in the coliiery. They had been at
work in another portion of the mine,
and all means of exit from the mine
were completely wiped out by the cave
in. James Perrin, one of the oldest of
the miners, got the men together and
started to lead them up through tun-
mel, which had been used as an air
shaft The rescuing party on the sur
face had made an attempt to cut. a
passage through the mass of debris
which blocked the main entrance. Fail
ing in this, some of the more daring of
the party went into the passage to
where the imprisoned miners were
struggling upward. The men were car
ried to the surface, where a great
crowd of excited people were awaiting
them.
Up to O'Clock tonight, all the per-
sons who could be found had been TAX
en- from the ruins, although a full roll
of those to be accounted for cannot be
prepared until morning.

THE IRON MARKETS

New York, Sept. 5-The soft condition
of the market proves the consumption is
not sufficiently great enough to hold out
question is whether there will be demand
enough tc prevent a. decline, possibly back
to the old figures for pig and steel billets

but on the whole the tone is one of dull
ness.
In manufactured iron and steel the
market is quiet and the request falling off
in the demand which is reflected in
weakening prices
To judge from the busy condition of the
cast iron foundries, the amount of NUM-
cipal work going on is large.
