that the charges against the other mon

missed in this manner.

They found a cavern in the mouth of
the tunnel. There was some loose dirt
running down and some fresh air was
coming with it. The men climbed TO
the top of the cave and pushed their
faces as near to where the fresh air
was coming in as possible. Mcleod
was on the bench at the face of the
tunnel and was shouting that they We're
all lost. OHara and the rest of the
men went TO sleep or became oVerp0W-
cred by the smoke. When he awoke he
missed his hat and in cropping about in
the dark for it his hand came in con-
tact with McLeod's cheek. 1t was cold.
He felt of the other cheek and then Of
his pulse. There was no pulse. Me-
Leod was on. his hands and knees and
had his face downward on plank.
O'Hara shouted to the other men that
Mcleod was dead. He did not know
what time it was. but thought it was
either 40 or $40 O'Clock in the morn
ing. He had no idea how long he had
slept The smoke was still very thick
and did not fully clear up until about
II or II o'clock. He did not think that
Mcleod had been injured; he did not
see anything strike Mcleod. He did
not hear any ground running after the
first explosion and did not think that
explosion caused the cave. In walking
through the tunnel before the explo-
sions he had seen a fire about 60 feet
from WnefP he was slaNdtHS. II Ads
only a flash and did not know what
caused it, Did not know how far the
powder was away. Did not know
whether it was customary TO have fires
burning in the tunnel or not; he had
never seen one.
NJ. c. Petritz and f. A. Jones were
also called. The former knew nothing
about the accident as he was on day
shift Jones is the civil engineer who
is experimenting the work. He gave
evidence as TO dimensions and dis
tances, and produced q plan of cross
section of the tunnel. He thought the
bank of ground that came down was
about 40 feet wide al the base and 10
feet at the top. He thought that every
thing possible had been done to expe-
dite the work of taking out the impris-
oned men. Asked if a vertical shaft
driven from the top would not have
been more rapid Jones said that such
a plan would have been impractcable,
and it would have been foolhardy TO
attempt it. No fires We're permitted to
burn inside the tunnel under any cir
cumstanees.
Andrew Usher was then recalled, but
he could tell nothing more about the
affair He reiterated the statement
that he was in absolute ignorance of
how the powder had caught fire.
The jury did not seem to feel salts
fled to render a verdict on the evidence
introduced, and after discussion, il was
decided to continue the inquest until
next Monday. In the meantime the
jury will probably visit the scene Of the
cave. Before beginning the inquest
yesterday the jury viewed the remains
OF Mcleod. The jury consisted Of
Thomas Boland, b. d. CressWhite, A.
Slaughter. d. Evans, L. j. Philips and
John Cannovan.
