BLOWN THROUGH A CABIN.
TWO MEN At KETCHIKAN KILLED
BY AN EXPLOSION.
Dynamite which Was Being Thaw-
ed Ont on a stove Is the Cause
of the Catastrophe by which

The City Of Seattle, which arrived from
Lynn canal shortly before midnight last
night, brought details of terrihc expo
sion near ketchikan week ago. Inc
story was carried TO Skagway by customs
Inspector Fleming. He says that twenty
five sticks of dynamite exploded while
being thawed In a stove near cabin
-Four men were in the cabin at the time
and two of them were thrown completely
through the roof and dropped to the eartn
outside. The most wonderful part OF IL IS
that these two men made their extraordi-
nary trip through the top OF the mouse ana
back TO earth without a scratch.
The two other men who were IN the
house were badly injured. 1t appears they
were thrown against the walls, or some
thing, and did not go through the roof or
walls. one man was badly cut and bruised
all over his body and SO severely injured
he did not survive. However, he lived un-
til taken to Ketchikan. where he was
given surgical attention by an experienced
doctor, but he was beyond recovery. he
suffered excruciating pain before passing
away.
Phe fourth man was severely injured be-
low the waist. His ear drums also suf-
fered much, and II was several days be-
fore he began to recover his hearing. MI.
Fleming SAYS it is a wonder that the
mans ear drums withstood the terrinc
conclusion.
THE names Of the men were not ascer-
tanned by Mr.. Fleming, but he says they
were all Swedes.
The place of the accident was near DALI
head, on Gravina Island. and sixteen miles
from Ketchikan. The men were working
in the mine.
Immediately after the accident two men
set out in small boat for Ketchikan and
had the steamer Elmore return with them
to the scene of the accident and take the
two victims to Ketchikan.

The property in question numbers many
thousands of acres and runs from the
