President Woodruff spoke consoliugly

Coal Mine Inspector Griffith has
made an official report to the governor
on the recent disaster in the Sunshine
mine in Garfield county, by which II
men were instantly killed. Mr.. Griffith
says the disaster was caused by the
igniting of cumulative dust in the mine
and not by the explosion Of a keg of
powder as was at first believed. Mr..
Griffith says the mine was well venti-
lated, but that large quantities of dust
had been allowed to accumulate, and
he recommended revision of the min
ing laws to guard against such hap
