will number 100, nearly 40 of whom were
English speaking miners, and others for
eigners, mostly Hungarians and Italians.
Among the victims were NJ. J. Langan,
acting mayor Of PittstOn and NJ. J. LynOtt, a
councilman. Langan was inside superin-
tendent and Lynott inside foreman. The
scene Of the disaster Is what Is known rs the
twin shaft operated by the Newton coal
