Forty Persons Imprisoned in a
Burning Mine.

Mine at Calumet, Michigan, Yesterday

They Have Probably Been sufrooated.

CALUMET, Mich, Sept. about 3
O'Clock this afternoon fire broke out in
the shaft of the Osceola mine and,at this
time 1t is more than probable that
forty men and boys have been burned
to death or suffocated.

is used to carry tho miners to the

hope OF being taken to the surface.
The fire was too rapid for them, how
ever, and the chance OF escaping by the
shaft was entirely cut off by flame and
smoke. The majority OF tho imprisoned
miners made break for cross cut and
In that way managed to reach another
SHAFT from which they were taken 10

roll was called
Within short time after thew had
reached the surface, smoke began pour

Is not the slightest chance for any of
the men now in the mine to escape with
their lives. II they are not burned thew
must have been choked by the dense
smoke within q short time after the fire
started.
Fortunately the mine is not as
heavily timbered as some of the mines
in this locality. and 1t will not take 1t
great while to burn out. As matters
now stand. there is not the slightest
thing that can be done for the men and
no effort is being made to extinpulsh
the flames. There is nothing known of
how the fire originated
The fire broke out In the eth level.
The Osceola Is copper mine, located
two miles from Calumet. The scene at
the Opeche shaft, where many OF the
men came up, was deeply heart-rendinR,
thousands having gathered around the
mouth of this shaft. many women and
children standing around looking for
theie husbands and fathers. Besides
the forty mentioned many more arc
known to be entombed, but in the ex-
element 1t is impossible to obtain their
names.

floors and the roof were Quilted, while
on the second floor the Gre had scorched

principally of Americans, gathered
around the '',ickers" at the various
hotels, restaurants and offices, and
watched the reports of the yacht race.
The Americans were greatly depressed
at the early reports. which showed that
Valkyrie crossed the line first, and was
leading in the race. This occasioned
much qualification to the English con-
tingent. but the spirits of the America ana
rose RAPIDLY when later Advices an
nounced Defender to be the winning
yacht. In reality little interest in the
result WAS noticeable on the streets of
the city, only one paper issuing an extra
for the purpose of announcing the defeat
of Valkyrie.
