SHUT UP IN A BURNING MINE
Five Men Given Up for Lost at Belle Ellen,
Alabama.

New Orleans, La, Sept. pa special
from Birmingham, Ala, to the Plea
yune says:
About two hours after the men went
tow ork in mine No. of the Bessemer
Land and Improvement company's coal
mine, at eBlle Ellen, near Blockton, Bib
county, this morning, fire was discover
ed far down in the main slope. About
100 men are employed in the mine. A
panic followed among the workers and
in the little town of Be lie Ellen. Hun
dreds gathered at the main entrance of
the smoking mine, while rescue parties
were a. once formed to relieve the min
ers. More than fifty wereg often out from
the various entrances without harm.
These the brave searchers found and
dragged out while those waiting at the
entrance restored to life their uncon-
scious friends. Five men who We're
working about the slope beyond where
sle fire originated could not be reached,
and il is regarded as certain that they
are dead. The missing men are Herman
Kramer and Hubbard Foley, white, and
Henry Reeves, Frank James and Will
lam Fairfax, colored. Il is possible that
two or three others may be in the mine.
Tue fire brigade battled with the flames
all day IN vain attempt TO reach the
entom6ed men, but a. nightfal the fire
was still burning fiersely and efforts
We're abandoned and the men given up
for dead.
A telegram from Belle Ellen tonight
says the fire is thought to have original
ed from an overheated steam pipe which
ignited the gas in the mine

would not have said All Well
1T 10 significant to note that Andre
was going eastward, the direction he in
tended to take This is a straw which
helps to verify his reported safe reap
pearance in Arctic Russia.
Doubtful scientists declared, before
Andre left, that ne would be unable to
determine his exact location from the
balloon. The tenths Of degrees given in
mis- message prove that Andre was no,
only able to ascertain his whereabouts
but did SO with remarkable accuracy.
The first three days were looked upon
as being the most perilous and import
ant of the entire journey. Andree's abil-
ity 10 successfully Withstand the initial
difficulties augurs better than rhe ordin-
airy lay mind would imagine for the cui-
mination of mis- daring project"
London, Sept. IA dispatch 10 the
Times from ST. Petersburg says:
THE reports that Professor Andree's
balloon has been sighted in the interior
OF Siberia, are not believed here. Cap
tain Kovonko. the leading aeronautic ex-
pert in Russia, firmly discredits them.
He asserts that if Andree ever returns,
II viii certainly not be in mid-air. as the
balloon could not have kept up beyond
twelve days"
