AWFUL MINE DISASTER.
Four Men and a Boy Killed by a Gas
Explosion In New
Mexico.

Denver, Col, April pa special to
the News from Albuquerque, y. NJ,
says: Four men and boy employed
in Cook & Whites coal mine at Madrid
lost their lives at noon Friday. Orders
are strict to the effect that only safety
lamps shall be used in the mine, but two
men some time after the foreman had
made his rounds carried in open lamps.
While the men were ascending for their
noon meal terrific explosion occurred.
Four men, John Sienwesky, Adam
Jeiasewiesi, John Reya and Fred Aira,
and boy, F. E. Wapps, were still in
the pit. The machinery refused to
work and it was not until 2:30 that a
descent could be made. Two dead
bodies were found at once, and about
four o'clock the remaining three. The
men evidently died from suffocation, as
no bruises could be found. Had it not
been for the injury to the machinery
it is thought all could have been saved.
The two open lamps were, found by the
bodies. The mine is badly wrecked.
