Of him. Several witnesses testified that
they told him the accident two years
ago Yesterday, in which four lives were
lost, was due 70 the peculiar and nm
precAdentsd dryness Of the mine; that
the dust had been wet every day for
short time, but this precaution had
been abandoned and another accident
was likely 10 happen at any time. So
far ~ known no action was taken by
Mr.. Harr. Il was also in testimony that
tho old pitboss, Mr. Muter, and the
new one, Mr.. Lewis, had been warned
OF this danger, without effect.
Among the witnesses was George
Benbow, 40 intelligent English miner,
who was among the first 10 enter the
mine after the accident; John Mntef,
who was with him: Nicolaus Kimmis.
also Of the earliest rescuing party, and
many other miners, all Of whom agreed
as 10 the fact that the officials and the
mino inspector had had ample warn
ings OF the danger, besides the expert
ence Of two former accidents from pre-
cisely the same cause.
Mr., Harr was not on hand yesterday,
but Il was learned that he had gone 20
Wellsburg, thinking the inquest would
be held there, and when he found out
his mistake It was too late to 60 farther.
OTHER TESTIMONY.
One Of the victims, Gesidio Margolo.
an Italian, when found was lying face
down, with his lamp in front Of him,
his match box open and match in his
fingers. He had evidently attempted
TO re.light his lamp after the explosion,
but died from suffOcation before be
could do 90.
Nicolaus Kimmis, Patrick Deyinney
and Joseph Politin, the miners bank
committee, went through the mine
with Harr last Thursday. They all de-
clare they told him OF the unusual dry
ness OF the mine aud the danger from
the source, and asked him to compel
the pit boss to take action to remedy
this, by compelling the dust to be wet
at proper intervals.
So far work has not been resumed in
the bank yet. There was some ohjec-
ton to the expert miner or any others
going in yesterday before Inspector
Harr arrived, and there was quite
wrangle on ono or two other matters
that came up during the day, all OF
which was In extremely bad taste.
One OF the bOdies was sent to Wells
burg and one to Steubenville yesterday.
The others will probably be inferred in
the cemetery at Golfers station, near
the Blanch mines.
The miners propose, il possible, to
have the attention OF the next Brooke
county grand jury directed to some
features Of the accident.
II 10 not true that Mrs. Donnelly was
among the first to reach her dead hus-
band. She was never nearer than one
hundred yards to the spot where his
mangled remains were found. The wife
OF one OF the colored men, when she
saw him alive after he had been re-
ported dead. swooned, apparently with
Joyous emotions. This probably gave
rise to the story that Mrs. Donnelly had
tainted when she saw her husbands
body. Mrs. Donnelly does not seem to
realize yet the bereavement she has suit
fered. There was a suggestion made
yesterday that Wheeling people might
get up relief fund for the victims fam
lilies, all of whom are in bad financial
circumstances.
