TERRIBLE MINE DISASTER.
Thiriy Mss sanacAt.d In = Mlehigaa
Mine.


Calumet. Mich. Sept. 9.-Saturday af-
ternoon fire broke out In the shaft Of
the OsceOla mine AT this place. Thirty
men Were at work in the mine at the
time, and there seems no possibility that
they can have escaped suffocation.
1t is learned that the place where the
fire caught was the worst place that II
could have caught in the whole mine,
and the only place in the mine where
fire Of any extent could have caught.
Many of the men that We're working
several levels below the twenty y-seyenth,
which place the fire caught, We're seen
as far up as the thirteenth level work
ing their way up. Several OF the men
who escaped claim to have passed 9TH
ers on the ladders that We're unable to
proceed further on account of being
overcome with smoke and gas. At the
time the alarm was sounded over 30
We're underground. and all would have
escaped had they used proper precau-
lions. Several miners IN their flight pass
ed group of seven or eight men who
had stopped to rest and We're smoking
their pipes. They seemed to be In no
hurry, or think of danger. When told
to hurry to the surface they remarked
that they had plenty OF time and not
one Of them reached the surface.
The skips We're kept running up and
down all day Saturday in order to give
any OF the entombed miners chance to
escape II they could reach the skip alive,
but none came up. Another attempt
Will be made to reach the men in the
morning. There Is no danger of the bod
les being burned, as 1t is generally
thought the men escaped from the burn
ing shaft to some of the drifts leading
10 other shafts and We're overcome by
gas and smoke before they could reach
n place of safety. This being the case.
the bodies will be recovered as soon as
the fire is gotten under control and the
gases leave the mine. The shaft has
been surrounded all day by thousands
Of people, all hoping that some sign or
word would be gotten from the men,
but have now all returned to their
homes. fearing the worst All hope has
been given up by the officials of ever
rescuing any Of the men alive
Ten miners went down in the south
ernmost shaft of the Osceola mine this
afternoon. They reached the twenty
fourth level and made their way to
within $50 feet of the burning shaft.
when they were forced to return on ac-
count of the deadly gas. Another party
went down No. l shaft to depth of $50
feet, but was also compelled to run
back. The entire mine is full of smoke
and gas, and all hope of finding any of
the entombed miners alive has been
given up. 1t is thought that the fire Is
out, but 1t will be several days before
the mine will be clear Of smoke.

which greeted the statement almost
carried Hardie Off his feet A half

a prosperous condition Of affairs there.
Crops Of all kinds are more abundant
than they have been for six years.
while manufacturing has increased In
every line. There has also been a
marked increase in exports, due to the
new tariff. Among the articles In which
there was the greatest activity were
wool, cattle and hides. and large ad-
vances in prices were made. All but
about 20 per cent Of the imported good
sold in Matamoras last year came fror'
