SMALL pOX AT LAS CRUCES.
Statements About the Situation
Vary to Some Extent.

The smallpox situation at Las Cru
ces may be not so bad as reported.
S 2. Ascarate called at the HERALD
office this morning and declared DR..
Desmeirais's statement in yesterdays
paper to be false. He said there are
not more than fifteen cases ofethe dis
cease at Cruces. He said he was told
this by Health Officer Mcconnell this
morning before leaving there.
The Las Cruces Democrat which
reached here today contains the follow
ing editorial utterance concerning the
situation:
THE outlook is not encouraging as
regards to the epidemic of small pox
There are now Is flags up, with nearly
40 cases, and there Is no immediate
hope of improvement. The funds of
the relief committee are exhausted and
unless the citizens of the town respond
promptly the work of combining and
subduing the disease must stop. There
can be no help expected from the coun-
ty board, and unless the people meet
the needs of the matter, the only re-
course will lie in al appeal
to the federal authorities. DR.. McCon-
nell said yesterday that he believed
that it would take $500 and sixty days'
time to eradicate all traces OF the dis
ease. 1t is both weak and foolish to
disguise the conditions that surround
US, and if the town is to be saved from
almost irreparable injury every citizen
should consider himself personally re-
sponsible for the success OF the com
mittee.

HORROR At CERRILLOS.
Five Men Meet Their Death By An
Explosion OF Gas.

A terrible accident occurred at Ger
rillos, N. NJ, on last Friday, in which
| five men met their death. At few
minutes before noon large volumes OF
| smoke and dirt were seen belching
from the mouth of the Cook & White
rillos, and it was but a short time be-
fore the whole camp Of 1000 people
we're hurrying from all directions to
the spot, it being known by all that
some great disaster must have occur
red. and it was feared the White Ash
explosion in 1895, when twenty-four
unfortunates were killed, had been
repeated.
1t was an hour or more before any
entrance could be had. to the mine, dur
ing which the anxiety of the waiting
families was something heartrending.
At the expiration of that time, how
ever, struggling miners appeared at
the entrance, cropping their way from
the interior, in the dark, the air being
SO foul no light could be used, even
safety lamps refusing to burn. About
lbs men were in the mine at the time
OF the explosion, and former experien-
ces had taught that the direct predic-
tions were not improbable. Great re-
lief was felt, therefore, as one by one
the entombed miners emerged from
the cavern of death. When nearly all
had escaped it was ascertained con-
clusively that an explosion of gas,
caused by a shot, had occurred in the
third left entry. and that. fortunately,
it was confined to that one locality.
It was known that four miners aud
driver were working in the third left
entry and steps were at once taken to
rescue them or recover their bodies.
Two hours after the explosion, how
ever, no lights of any kind could be
used, but brave men attempted the al
most impossible feat, aud in total dark
ness crnwled down the slope, and by
the sense of feeling finally came to- the
spot where it was found pone OF the
five unfortunates had escaped death.
