Schlatt is young Scandinavian who
has been in the camp about four years
and VINO formerly worked in the Swan
sea. He had been with the Rabbit S
Foot for four months. O'Neill did not
know where the relatives of the dead
miner lived, but believed that he came

brought here when very young.
Redford is native of Marysyale,
where he was raised. He went to Sill

Marysvale, where his parents live now.
He had been working in the Rabbits
Foot for four months.
AS Told By a Rescuer.
F. H. Stewart, another miner of the
district, came in yesterday evening and
was at the Walker House. He was
among the first reScuing party that
went down the shaft. AS he was help
ing another man to cut away the tim
bers which had fallen in about the
cage, $50 feet down, he was overcome
by the gas and powder smoke and fell
back against the side of the shaft.
When he recovered a little he at
tempted to climb the ladder back to the
surface, $50 feet. But he was too weak
to make the ascent and he was hang
ing ready to drop back twenty-five feet
when others coming down the ladder
rescued him. He was hauled up with a
rope.
Stewart said that Superintendent Nc
Chan was heart broken over the acct

cried like a child, believing that the
public might blame him in some way

pose the provisions of the law render 1t
necessary that parliament should be

Except for the difficulties that have
been caused by the action of the South
African Republic. the condition of the
world continues to be peaceful.
Gentlemen of the house OF commons,

my lords and gentlemen, there are
many subjects of domestic interest to

been reached. For the present / have
invited your attendance in order to ask
you to deal with an exceptional ext

Suddenly some one shouted:

other and then there came cries of

When asked if he blamed any one for

Sir Thomas emphatically, under the
conditions governing the contest we
have lost this race as fairly as if we

Yesterday while General Cronje's

There were no casualties on the Trans

after the second engagement, retired in
the direction of the town, but they re-
sumed the attack shortly afterwards,
two burghers being killed and three
wounded.
The commando engaged was impeded,
owing to the want of heavy artillery,
which was subsequently obtained from
General Cronje.

Robinson, Utah, Oct 17.-Paul Berta
a miner employed in the Grand Cen

at about A o'clock this morning, the
result of the discharge of a round of
Burleigh shot while the unfortunate
man was still in the Wine.
Berta and fellow miner, Steve

thirty mine feet down from the 500

finished putting in their round of holes
the other part of the shift had left the

ladder from the WINE Meanwhile
Berta had spit his nine holes and
given the signal to be hoisted. 1t is
believed the man was seized with such
violent excitement ON the failure of
the hoist to respond that he forgot the
ladder and was caught by the imne-
date explosion of the charges. His
body was blown to pieces.
Speaking of the affair. President
Lafayette Holbrook of the Grand Cen
trail company stated that no blame
could be reasonably attached to the
company inasmuch as the ladder was
within reach and had been placed there
especially as a precautionary measure
in case of the indisposition of the
hoist.

boat to the other.
Some Fine Jockeying.
The Shamrock was perhaps half a
length ahead and in the windward
berth. Both had their sheets trimmed
straight aft, and as she went across,
the Columbia set her baby lib topSail.
IT was broken out and sheeted home in
eight seconds. But the smartness of
the Yankee boat In setting it's sail did
not compensate the patriots for the
disappointment they suffered oel ac-
count of the Shamrock's superior gen.
eralship in getting the weather gauge.
But their disappointment was short
lived. The Columbia was BANKED and
the patriots expected to see her drop
, astern. Instead she gathered Roadway
and went through the Shamrock's lee
like a race horse.
Madly she footed and in five minutes
she was clear of her adversary. Five
minutes later the Shamrock went about
on the port tack but the Yankee held
on for a minute to be sure Of the
weather gauge. As both heeled away
on this tack it seemed that the Column
bia would reDeat her performance Of
yesterday, for she footed faster and
pointed HIGHER;
The Columbia FORCES Ahead.
Fifteen minutes after the start she
was 500 yards we'll out on the green
boats weather bow, and forging ahead
at every bound. The Shamrock did not
set her handkerchief forward. evident
ly believing from her experience of
yesterday that it knocked her of the
wind. Captain Hogarth was able to
keep her closer. but he could not hold
her as high as the white beauty.
The Columbia'S head sail lifted her
head out of the waves and made her
splash more spray as her bow went
smashing into the long swells. The ex-
perts thought this made her spill wind
out of her sails, but they had no heart
to criticise the Bristol wonder as she
ate her way to windward.
Meantime the great mass of eXcur-
sion boats chased after the big flyers,
and the wind was freshening until it
blew to fifteen or sixteen knots.
Accident to the Shamrock.
About twenty minutes after the
yacht We're started some of the sharps
with their glasses glued to the two
boats noticed that the Shamrock's top
mast appeared to sag a little. Several
times she was luffed sharply.

kite and the whole top hamper of the
green boat tumbled over to leeward,
and the stately challenger was a help

like the wings of a bird hit by the
hunter, and she lay on the water help

No one in the excursion fleet knew
what had happened except that the
club topsail had carried away, and it
was a cry of agony that went up from
the sightseers. Although the Columbia
was to be the beneficiary of the acct
dent. never were there more sincere
expressions of regret than when the
Shamrock wore slowly around, and
gave uD the contest.
The Columbia Sails It Out.
The Columbia went on, as she was

will probably never be known. The
coroner's jury decided that the miners
met death from the accidental explo-
no one. The deceased unquestionably
lost their lives by suffocation and as
phyXia, and not by the conclusion or
combustion produced by the explosion.
A WelI-founded Theory.
The theory advanced by Samuel HUI
Der, one of the brave men who devoted
tirelesS energies toward rescuing the
imprisoned men, and confirmed by
nearly all of the men saved, is that
they fell in the stump where they were
found, and were suffocated, while CROP
ing for the Underway, which was de-
stroyed by the explosion.
The engineer, William Morrow, said
that shortly after the loud report from
below, the signal came to hoist, subse-
quently followed by a signal to lower
both of which he complied with. 1t is
apparent that when the doomed men
found the guides so bowed as to pre-
vent the crosS-head from passing, they
gave the signal to be lowered, hoping
to escape by means of the ladderway
Finding that gone, they became be-
wildered and were quickly overpowered
by the deadly influence of gases and
powder smoke
Sight of Rescued and Rescuers.
The scene in thhe shafthouses between
2 and 8 o'clock this morning was a
weird and gruesome one. Thirteen ap-
parently lifeless bodies were stretched
on the floor and brave men were vigor-
ously trying to resuScitate them. The
would-be rescuers lay alongside of the
men who had been imprisoned, all with
serene, white, upturned faces-the liv-
ing and dead alike.
Among the first to reach the scene of.
disaster in company with Superintend-
ent McGhan was Dan Ferguson, fore
man of the Sunbeam mine, subsequent
ly one of the rescders of McGhan. To
quote Mr.. Ferguson, verbatim: Nc
Chan and l were down town together.
and as the long blast from the Rabbits
Foot whistle was sounded, l said to
him, What does that mean?' and
he said Billy Morrow, the engineer, is
blowing the whistle for supper But it
soon became apparent that something
unusual was wrong and we hurried up
the hill together. Quickly taking in the
situation, McGhan soon went below,
and in his determination to save his
men and with utter unconcern regard
ing himself, he nearly lost his life In
fact, when we found him he was. to all
ir1tents and purposes, a goner. Ten
minutes more and we never could have
revived him.
Some of the Noble Heroes.
Samuel Huber, one of the brave and
valiant rescue force, who ultimately
was overcome and brought up uncon-
scious, said to the writer: There were
some men there who were greater he
roes than Dewey, and 1 think The Her
aid ought to mention their names. They
are McGhan and George Coleman. r.
C. Rabbit, L. G. Johnson, Darby
Durkins, Shift Boss Miller, Dan Fergu-
son, John Gumerson, John Long. F. H.
Stewart, AL Collins. All of these worked
until overpowered by the gases in. the
mine and had to be carried out. There
was also Engineer Billy Morrow, who
finally succumbed and got historical
and many more whose names don't oc-
cur to me now"
The consensus Of opinion seems to be
