HUNTINGTON, Ark, March 5.-There
was an explosion in Mine Al of the Kansas
and Texas Coal Company of this place last
evening, burning thirty-fve men. all of
them seriously and some fatally. partial
list OF the victims follows:

arms, head and face: II. Stusener. may not

Morris, badly burned on face, head and
arms: William 5. Carlett, severely burned
and cut on head. in a serious condition
William Maxwell, very badly burned; VIII
liam Gartenshire burned on face, neck and
head.
Mine Al is situated about a quarter of "a
mile north OF the main part of the town.
1t was a shaft sunk six years ago but
abandoned for about two years. This sum-
mer slope was driven TO the old working
and il again commenced to produce coal.
Over one hundred men, half of them he
groes. were employed in the mine. About
4:30 o'clock muffied roar startled the peo-
pie and they turned their heads toward the
mine. A column of smoke and debris shot
up high from the airshaft. over the open
ground and network of railroad tracks
rushed men and women. Many OF the lat
ter had husbands and other members of
their families in the mine. in few min
utes after the explosion the men COM
menced to appear. Some were not burned
at ALL while others appeared with their
skins hanging from their faces and hands
or hanging In ribbons.
The work of looking for those unable TO
walk up the slope was at once begun,
SUPERINTENDENT Vail. of the Kansas and
Texas mine, directing the work. one by
one the injured were brought out and taken
TO their homes How many of them are
burned internally the doctors cannot say,
as their efforts are employed solely III
dressing the wounds.
Different theories are advanced for the
cause of the explosion. Superintendent
Vail saws he believes that a keg of powder
was exploded by carelessness, but the gen
eral opinion among miners appears 10 De
that il was caused by a windy shot nrine
the gas and powder smoke. They say tnal
the mine was very dry and dusty ana thal
the furnace was not strong enough 10 Gre
ate sufficient draft TO carry the DUST out
of the rooms and entries. There Is very
little gas in the mines here and III Is the
opinion that this had little part III the ex-
plosion. State Mine ms pector McMulhn
has been notified and will investigate.

BRAZIL, Ind. March 5.-For the past
twenty-four hours a heavy rain has been
constantly falling. causing small streams
to swell to roaring rivers. The little creek

course. making it necessary for the occu-
pants TO wade two feet deep in leaving their
premises. Swamp Angel mine near Perth.
