a cave-in and h men are supposed to
be buried under it, but it was while re-
moving the dirt by the rescuers that the
particles of flesh and clothing were
found.
Frank Hunter, Deputy State Mine In
spector. was on the ground in the early
part of the day and he gives it as q
theory that the explosion must have been
caused by the discharge of a cap. Twelve
holes had been drilled, five of them had
been charged, with the seven yet to fill.
He believes that one of the men must
have gone back for more powder or fuse,
M while doing so In some manner ac-
~cidentally discharged a cap which caused
The giant powder to ignite.
No one will ever know exactly just how
the catastrophe occurred. There were no
eye witnesses to it.
The Stewart mine is under lease t
Kinds and Hoy n the men who lost
their lives were employed by them.
The accident did not become known
until about 8 o'clock, when the relief
shift went on. Two miners by the names
of Tocker n Morrisey were on this
shift and found the fragments of flesh.

B PARTY CAUCUSES.
Another Harmonious Gathering of
Political Forces.

The labor party of Silver Bow county
of nominating delegates to the county
convention to be held in the court house
next Monday evening. So far as could
be learned, perfect harmony prevailed in
every precinct. Perfect harmony meant
that it was a slate affair, "aS it should
be-" remarked one Of the leaders in dis
cussing the matter with an Inter Noun
tain reporter.
Tonight the primaries come off, and
as printed ballots will be plentiful and
only one kind of printed ballots, the
chances are favorable for more har-
Nmonys
From conversations with workingmen
who will undoubtedly be conspicuous in
the convention, there seems to be a de-
sire among some of the trades unionists
to make a political decker with one of the
democratic wings. The majority, how
ever, are inclined to test their strength
as a labor party by going it alone, nomi-
mating a complete labor ticket from top
to bottom, and pushing it for all it is
worth.
IF any attempt is made for fusion
with any of the wings of the democratic
or republican PARTIES" said Frank We'll
don, 1T will split our party and drive
u men back again into the old par
ties. l am confident that we can win
in Silver Bow county if we all pull to-
gether. All the other parties nave sig
nftied their love for the workingman.
Now let them indorse our ticket If they
mean what they say. Let them come to
US. We should not go to them"

JAMES MURRAY AND THOMAS KELLY, MINERS, LOSE THEIR
LIVES BY AN EXPLOSION. ---..
THEIR BODIES TORN TO ATOMS BY The FORCE OF FIFTY STICKS
OF GIANT P0WDER-CAUsE OF THE ACCIDENT
MYSTERY. -

An awful explosion took place in the
mine at an early hour this morn
ing resulting in the death of Thomas
Kelly and James Murray, two expert
enced miners and well-known in Butte.
The men were evidently blown to atoms
Tor those engaged in the relief work this
afternoon gathered up particles of flesh
and clothing in a box and brought this
gruesome sight to the surface.
me explosion occurred about 200 feet
back Of where the men were supposed to
nave been working and at a point where
they had stored about fifty sticks of
powder and a quantity of caps. The men
were on the 600-foot level. They went on
shift at IL o'clock midnight and were to
have come off duty at 8 o'clock this
morning. Foreman Bailey gave it as his
opinion that the bodies of the unfortun-
ate men would not be recovered before
midnight tonight. No other miners were
at work on the 600 level at the time.
Coroner Julien visited the scene of dis
aster shortly after noon and stated
that the timbering is completely shatter-
ed for a distance Of Is feet, which caused

PoPULIsT DENUNCIATIoN.

Notice to the Peoples Party of Silver
Bow County.
This is to certify that the undersigned
does this day resign as a member of the
Peoples Party State Central Committee
and Executive Board for the coming
campaign, his reason for this act is the
following:
Mr.. ]. Byrne state mining inspector at
tended a meeting of the county central
committee, about the 10th of last month
and presented a list of names, about
rs, to act as PRECINCT committee which
were accepted, this same committee Sc
lected, or were presented with a list of
names for delegates, to be elected his
evening at the populist primaries. The
committeeman appointed for precinct Q2)
which precinct I am a resident of, l have
never met, and could not find him till the
18th of this month on the same date I
was informed by our state chairman that
precinct vas filled and was asked to
move to precinct CO. which L absolutely
refuse to do. There are about fi%fty-three
active workers in this precinct which de-
nounce such actions, of any party or par
ties running in slate tickets on them and
will refuse to act with them. We take
these methods of showing our disapprov-
al to such actions n appeal to all con-
sentative populists to act accordingly.
Sincerely yours,
WIN. EDWARDS.
