J MINERS ENTRAPPED.

GAts8H by Fire In a Michigan Copper h'ns
fbirty Men Supposed to he L"st-o"'y |
0ucPoor Chance OF Escape Through an
Abandoned Hecia Mine Shaft-Pathetio
f<Fnes at tho Mouth of the Mine.
HouGHToN, Mich, Sept. AT 1880
o'csacll this afternoon fire was dlscov-
cred by timbernen in the thirty
seventh level of the O5ceola copper
mine. The timbermen at once rushed
to the shaft and when brought to tho
surface in the big bucket gave the
alarm. Thirty miners were at work
at the. time, and up to a late hour to-
night but one person had been res
cued, pump boy, and he died shortly
after reaching the open air.
The blaze on the thirty level
is 1890 feet below the earth's surface.
The underground workings are heavily
timbered with pine and as the fire
spread it generated great quantities OF
carbonic acid gas, which sank to the
lower level, so that death from 50 ffo-
ca hon is as certain to all in the level
below the thirty-seventh as to those
Az ~
Smoke is pouring in dense volumes
from the mouth Of every shaft in the
mine, and escape through those open
ings is impossible. The fire is evi-
IDENTIFY gaining very rapidly
The only hope for the thirty i'm.
prisoned men to effect their escape is
through an old drift which opens al
about the fifteenth level into the south
, Hecla branch Of the famous Calune'
and Hec,a mine, but that drift was
| abandoned years ago. and doubtless Il
, chosed up with dccaved timber. But
: it is the only possible avenue of es
2 cape, and the hopes of the miners
, friends cling desperately to it.
Gathered about the shafts of the Os
4 ceola are the wives, mothers and chill
5 dren of the unfortunate men, anS
t iously awaiting further news fror
their loved ones The scenes are Yer,
l. pathetic but beyong the doubtful as
e surance that the men may have foun
b; the abandoned Hecla drift, little con
e fort can be extended. Every effort
E being put forth to rescue the untol
tunate men, but hope is not high.
e The Osceola Is, next to the Tan
d araclx, the chief copper producer in tn
a Clark Bigelow group. 1t has been
d continuous operation since 1888, al
t. paid average dividends of $4,000 a
,r nually.
&c Upwards OF 200 men were at work
re the levels of the mine when the II
n started. Many of these were taken

in surface in the great buckets in 'alr
AS ing condition. 1t is now utterly i

ALL HOPE ABANDONED
OF Rescuing Alive Any OF the Imprisoned
Copper Miners.

CALUMET, Mich, Sept. lO.--Ien NIL
ners went down the southermost shaft
of the Osceola mine yesterday morn
ing. The men were especially selected
among the fearless and experienced
workmen habituated to breathing
powder smoke and foul air The party |
descended in the ship or iron car used
in bringing up rock from the mine TO
the twenty-fourth level, and managed
to press north on that level to withln
2av feet OF No. shaft, ,ieHt south o,
the burning one. At that point two
of the party were overcome by the gas,
and to save adding fresh victims TO the
already long list the relief expedition
turned back
In No. | shaft, at the other end OF
the mine, similar attempt was maae
bv carefully organized party sim
liar to the first, but at depth OF only
$50 feet down the shaft smoke was
met in such volume that it was TOOL
hardy to descend further and the min
ers quickly came to the surface
The experience of the rescuing par
ties in Nos 3 and 5, where the smoke
would naturally be met with in the
least quantities. renders 1t certain that
the entire mine is now filed with it,
and cuts off the last hope that the
missing men may have been able to
preserve their lives,
Rescuing parties will be sent down
as frequently as possible to test the
condition. 1t will probably be several
davs before the mine will be clear ol
smoke. even if the fire has gone out
