CURED at the Red Ash mine shortly
after the miners went to work early
yesterday morning. Although the
most heroic work Of the rescuing par
ty was going on necessarily all yes
terday it was impossible last night
TO estimate the full extent OF the loss
of life and property. More than 90
dead bodies have already been taken
out and the number of dead may
reach - or more 1t was thought
last night that at least As miners are
yet entOmbed In the wrecked mine.
The first successful strike Of the
rescuers was about ten a. m, when ten
bodies were recovered. 1t was found
that seven Of them were already dead
and the other three dying. As the
miners were located at different -pIa-
ees IN the drift and the explosion
caused the falling slate to blockade
the rooms in different parts Of the
mine, the work Of rescuing the men
met with one great obstruction after
another.
The exciting scenes under the
entrance to the mines where all these
men were working extended through
out the entire region, and the miners
Of other camps came IN with their
families and with greatly exaggerated
reports concerning the calamity. At
the mouth Of the mine the scene was
beyond description, the wives and
children and neighbOrs of those who
were known TO be eRtombed, were
there in full force and their anxiety
and distress was most intense. While
they were all seeking TO help those
who were rescued and TO get the mine
reOpened, yet these bereayed people
were for the most part in the way
Of the rescuers and had to be held
back from the entrance. Air was
forced into the mine by engines on
the surface which were kept working
after the explosion. but 1t was found
that air could be pumped into the
drift for only a short distance. as
the coal. stone and earth shut OF an
possibility OF pumping INTO the mines.

Ter the Head OF fhs DemocratIc-Popuiiss
TfeEes-Eansas Popullsts Want The
Convention at Kansas CITY.

Chicago, Feb. Information has
been received at the national demo
cratic headquarters that concerted ef-
fort is being made by popuIists Of Kan
sas to have the date Of the national
popuIist convention changed from Hay
9 to and transferred from Sioux Falls
to Kansas City. According to reports
brought by democrats from the vest
about the meeting Of the national CON-
mittee at Washington, the leaders were
slightly embarrassed over the fact that
the pOpuIists had set their convention
for May 9. Although a majority Of the
democratic committee is reported &c
have been averse to compromising with
the peoples party, it was admitted on
all sides that we're the pOpulists to Sc
lect a candidate for vice-president who
would not be named at q democratic
convention, the confusion attending
the Bryan-Sewau and Bryan-Watson
combinations of 1896 would be repeat
ed
Under these circumstances, members
Of the national committee are anxious,
therefore, that the two parties should
agree on both places on the national
ticket. It is taken for granted that the
pOpulists VIII nominate Bryan, and It
is presumed that their managers are
disposed favOrabIy toward Caldwell Of
Arkansas as a running mate.
Caldwell also has many friends On
the democratic side, and in as much as
the Arkansas judge has an intimate
friend in Senator Allen of Nebraska, It
is figured Allen would be pleased TO
use his influence to have the peoples
party convention transferred to Kan
sas City. The reported plan is that
the populists shall meet the day follow
ing the democratic convention and in
dOrse the democratic nominees.
According to Secretary Walsh Of the
democratic national committee, Cald-
well viii have a strong following IN the
democratic convention at Kansas City.
Chairman johnson Of the national ex-
ecutive committee Is also partial to
Caldwell as a ce-presidential eligable.
