THE CONTRACTS LET
The Southern Extension oi
the X. c., S. & G.. all
Under Contract.
The Line From Kansas City to the
Gulf Will be In Operation by
January, 1896.

1t has been known in this city fer
some time that the contracts for
the remainder of the grading work
on the Kansas City, Shreveport
and Gulf railway would be let as
soon as the locating engineer made
his final report. This was done a
few days ago, and we learn that the
contracts for the grading of the
line of the southern extention from
Many, in Sabine parish to Beau
mont, Tex. were let at Kansas City
a few days ago.
The distance from Many to Beau
mont is about 14O miles, and all
this work has been let out to four
contractors, viz: Bernard Corrigan,
R. NJ. QuigIey & Co., Mike Tansy
and A. S. Lindsly.
We learn that large numbers of
additional teams are going to be
put on the work, which will be
pushed with all possible dispatch in
order that the line can be COM
pleted to Beaumont by the 1st of
December.
The gentlemen who have the con-
tracts are among the most ex-
perienced men in the business and
have ample means at their back. If
they cannot accomplish the task
within the time specified there is no
use of anybody else trying it,
By the time the southern end is
completed the gap north of US
through the mountains will be done,
and we may confidently look for

NOTES OF THE DISASTER.

The official list of widows and orphans
compiled by the company places the num-
Der at thirty widows and 10l orphans.
A week before the disaster, Joseph Eur
andi, one of the foreign victims. Joined
Branch Z, Slavonian Roman and Greek
Catholic union, paying so cents initiation
fee. He had a large family, and they VIII
receive $780, Joseph Hoistervich. another
of the victims, was treasurer of the brancn
and his family will also receive $500.
F.. l.. Fuller. secretary of the company,
who was on the ground yesterday mora
ing, announced that Il prominent banker
in New York city had decided to make 4
voluntary contribution. Just as soon as
an organization is effected and the proper
parties elected to receive this money he is
ready to forward his check for $1,000. Mr.
Fuller was of the opinion that just as soon
as organization was accomplished, other
large subscriptions would follow. He
thought good plan would be to make
it known that subscriptions would be re-
ceived at the several banks.
One of the striking cases Of wifely de-
votion. where love and hope drive away
despair, is that of Mrs. Mccormick. wife of
the brave fire boss. On departing on his
perilous duty Saturday night Mr.. McCor-
mick told his wife not to be alarmed If
she heard of fall of rock or any other
accident. as he would be safe. The faith-
full wifes confidence in her husbands as
surance that he would be safe, leads the
poor woman to hope that her husband Is
still alive. The worst she can believe Is

CORONER M'KEE ON THE SCENE.
Came to Consult with Mine inspected
Mcdonald.

DR.. +. L. Mckee, coroner of Luzerne
county, made his first visit to the scene
yesterday afternoon. He came to con-
suit with Mine Inspector Mcdonald and
the belief is that he was sent for, but
neither he nor the inspector will admit
this. He only staid for d few minutes,
coming up on one train and going back
on the next. In order to get an inter-
view The Tribune man had to ride with
him to the next station.
He said he had come to look over a
few matters connected with the dis
aster and was not prepared yet to state
what they were. If body should be
recovered, he said, he would immedi-
ately hold an inquest, but until such
time as this occurs. he can not take
any official action. Should the bodies
never be recovered he would not, in his
opinion, be called upon to make an in
quest. As an evidence that he has been
studying the matter from legal point
of view, he several times alluded to de-
cisions and precedents in similar cases.
The mine inspectors investigation he
thought would supplant an inquest in
case of the bodies never being recov-
cred.
AS the mine inspector himself may
be called upon to defend his own con-
nection with the case, it is question
as to whether or not a full and fair
hearing can be secured without coro-
ner's inquest.

mand this work will be continued" /"
said General Manager John b. Law to
Tribune reporter. yesterday, when
asked II he could explain what started
the rumor that the company was con-
sidering the abandonment Of the work
because Of the discouragements which
the day had brought forth.
This rumor." said he, like many
other wild ones emanates from idle con-
lectures. The work will not be aban-
doned. We have every hope of recov-
erng the bodies and will do it If men
and money can accomplish the under
taking"
Another rumor which Is scarcely
worth denying is that the company's S
store had refused supplies to the famil-
les of the victims. Astonishing as 1t
may seem this most damnable lie gain
ed such general circulation that chill
dren of the bereaved families have been
sent to the store to ask if it was true.

IT WAS A BAD DAY
CONCLUDED from Page IL

conclusion is left for the reader to
draw.
When Tuesday nights shift came up
at II O'Clock, two Of the men reported
that they had heard rappings. Immedi-
ately all kinds of reports We're In cir
culation and the sensation mongers
scattered broadcast through the county
the delusiop that the entombed miners
We're alive. The fact that the others
of the gang had heard no noises but
what could be accounted for by
the working" of the roof and
that no rappings have been re-
ported since shows beyond peradven-
ture that the two men We're deceived;
that the noises they heard We're the
imaginings of an overwrought mind.
both of them having relatives among
the victims.
About midnight there was another
bad squeeze which drove the men to the
retreat at the foot of the shaft and
delayed operations for an hour, but
when the working" had ceased, little
damage was found to have resulted to
the tunnel.
When the day shift came TO the sur
face a. 3 O'Clock this afternoon they
brought with them a dinner bucket
which they came across about noon
and which had evidently been blown
up the slope when the concussion oc-
cured. While it was being scrutinized
about the head of the slope an old gray
headed man, John Hart, suddenly
grasped 1t cxclaiming It's Danny's.
It's my boys can. Danny. Danny"
He gazed at and fondly patted 1t as If
it was the child he mourned and then
as If maddened at the inanimate thing
because 1t came out and left its own
er behind he gave it a blow that must
have caused intense pain to his aged
and shrivelled hand. Then he hurried
with it to his grief str r.cken home that
the others of the bevcaved household
might see the sad reminder of the be-
loved one.
CROWD WAS SMALL.
At no time during the day was there
what might be called a crowd. The
relatives of the entombed men came and
went singly and in small groups. the
women as has been usual, coming at
daybreak to see what the night had
brought forth The sightseers are
very few and the place at times as
sumed a rather lonesome appearance.
When evening came on quite ~ crowd
gathered but it disappeared as bed time
, approached leaving only tn, workers
and watchers about the mouth of the
shaft.
At II o'clock last night the situation
had undergone no material change.
According to the statement of w. G.
Thomas. superintendent of the Alon-
| quin mine. who was directing affairs
last night, the o'clock shift, which
came to the surface at II o'clock, sue
ceeded in gaining twelve feet. which is
| four feet better than the morning shift.
