Eight Men Probably Sufocated in
New Mexico,
FIRE CUT OFF THE MEMS ESCAPE.

The Hosting Machinery Destroyed Before
1t Was Possible to Give Warning to the
ImperiIled Miners, and There Is Little
Hope of Their Rescue.
WHITE OAK, n NJ, March 11.-At 8
clock yesterday fire broke out in the
change room of the hoist house of the Old
Abe NINE and in few minutes the struc-
ture, large and well built one, was
mass of flames. 1t was completely de-
stroyed, together with the wood and smith
shops The mill, sixty feet away, escaped
without damage The woodwork of tho
shaft was burned out and the hoisting
machinery destroyed.
The damage runs high up into the thou
sands, but the most distressing feature is
that some men are imprisoned in the dark
depths whose fate is unknown There is
little ground for hope that they have es-
capped suffocation. 1t will not be possible
to enter the mine to search for them until
some time this afternoon or tomorrow.
Rescuing parties have been unable as yet
TO get down further than the third level
by the air shaft The smoke and gas from
the charred wood from the hosting shaft
has penetrated the upper level, and it is
impossible to pass them.
The entombed men are: Charles Sher-
rick, F. J. Williams Frank Wilson, John
Davis, G. Baxter, Charles White, Jerry
Conover and w. b. Mitchell.
Wilson, Davis and Baxter are married.
White is a new man and was on his first
shift Williams and Sherrick are old in
mining experiences, and have faced like
dangers before. They are cool headed, and
if any place Of safety was to be found they
found it.
The fire broke out while G. e. Wilkin-
son was going down in the bucket to work
He had reached the ninth level when the
hoist was abandoned and was shot down
200 feet to the thirteenth level, where the
bucket struck, tipped and threw him into
the drift. He was stunned, but recovered
and climbed back to the second level and
escaped by the air shaft. Coke Keith, Mike
Gallagher andAnton Howgate also escaped
through this air shaft. This is the only
serious accident here since the burning Of
the South Homestake shaft several years
ago, when two men were smothered.

Miss Letter, of Chicago, is also to

came in by way of the yard stick, but its

SH hundred million dollars are in
volVed, it is said, in the decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States of
che principle involved in the case before
them in the Bates Refrigerator Com
pany. The case was one upon which de-
pended the question of when American
patents expire when foreign patents have
been previously issued and it was de-
cided in an exhaustive opinion by JUS
'5ics Harlan that when the foreign patent
expires the American patent expires also.
The principle involved is one that affects
a large number of other patents, notably
several belonging to the Bell Telephone
Company. The advocates of a cheaper
telephone rate are jubilant over this de.
Cision, for they claim that so many
patents Of the Bell Telephone Company
are killed by this decision that the COM
pany, if it wants to hold its business
&gainsRcompetition, must reduce the rates.
The decision rendered by Judge Harlan
Has endorsed by full court.
