RECOVERING THE DEAD.
Work in the BraxneIl Mine-Body Su.-
pended on a Beam.

BROWNSVILLE. Pa. Dec. 26.-with
sightless eyes peering into the dark depths
below, the corpse of Andrew Forber hung
for three days and three nights from a
beam half way up the mine shaft of the
Brazneil mine The body was fifty feet
above the level of the mine, from whence
1t had been blown by the force of the ex-
plosion. Since the accident occurred living
and dead men have been almost constant
ly passing within a few feet of the corpse.
The accident wrecked both cages One was
hastily repaired and operated on one side
or the shaft. On the other side within
reaching distance of the cage in use hung
Forber's body, but owing to the darkness
in the shaft 1T was not found until to-day.
Two other bodies, or rather pieces of
bodies, were found this afternoon. They
were located deep among the debris and
were worse mangled than any yet found.
The heads and trunks were together, but
the arms. hands, legs and feet were picked
up here and there and placed In the same
box. They We're foreigners, but it was i'm
possible to identify them. One Of the res
cue party said that much of the bodies still
remained in the mine and he shoveled up
great pile of fragments Of flesh and cloth

the number of dead is increased to twenty
three.

VICTORIA, B. c., Dec 26.-The telegraph
operator at Glacier, in the Rocky noun
tains, reports that an immense avalanche
has swept down the mountain near there,
covering $50 feet of track and taking down
a number of telegraph poles, so that the
wires are interrupted. Trees twelve inches
thick were observed in the slide, and 1t is
the snow or the condition of the track. The
slide covers the track from five to twenty
feet.
The steamer Tees, which arrived here to-
day, brings news of big snowslide on the
White Pass & Yukon road which has
sengers from Bennett followed a rotary
snow plow and was pushed by two engines.
When the plow was a mile south of the
switchback 1t cut out the lower part Of the
accumulated snow on the mountain side.
This loosened the mass, and 1t came down
with rush. burying the plow and the To-
comotives out of sight. The passenger
train in the rear was not touched by the
slide. There was fifteen feet of snow in the
cut. Passengers who walked from the
blockaded train report that the snow was
twenty-five feet deep on an average all
along the line The storm-bound passengers
had to pay so cents for a cup of coffee.
One Of the passengers. named p. Oregon.
who attempted to walk to Skagway, was
found lying unconscious in the snow with
his face and hands badly frozen.
