The men were preparing to leave the
mine on the day shift when the disaster
occurred. A ''shot" had been fired, and
instead of its being a direct explosion it
was what, in miners parlance, is called
"a blow out that is the powder created

the dust that had accumulated in the
chamber instead of dislodging the seam

AT the time of the explosion there was

which ignited and aided the disaster,
which would have occurred through the
coaldust explosion alone
The Sunshine, where the disaster oc-
Cured, has peculiar coal, a combina
ton of anthracite and bitumen, and
there is belief that the gathering of the
coaldust in the chamber of the mine
was due to excessive explosion caused
by. desire to empty the chamber too
quickly. In the whole property there
are fifty to fifty-fve men employed.
The single chamber where the men
were killed was the only one damaged.
Two hours after the explosion occurred.
the bodies of the dead men were all
brought to the surface.

As the bodies lay, the faces covered
with the black dust and their hair burned
able. The force of the explosion had
completely crushed each bone in the
twelve bodies. so that the remains were
merely shapeless mass of flesh and bone,
and as easily rolled into knot as though
composed of yarn. Three of the dead
miners, Louis and John Andriani and
John Jennoni, leave families.
This mine is the oldest of the Spring
Gulch group. Two entries below the one
in which the accident occurred have been
worked out. These two covered a dis
lance of 600 feet above the level of the
creek. The slope which proved the death
trap of the twelve men is usually the
working place of forty toilers. Yester-
day the main forces were employed in
entry No. 4, $50 feet above the level
where the explosion occurred. The ex
plosion broke away the stoppage from
the lower worked-out slopes and the two
working slopes were at once filled with
the deadly black damp. An idea of the
force of the explosion can be had when 1T
is seen that the timbers, many twenty
two inches in diameter, were twisted and
broken as though mere pipe stems.
