plosions to Rescue Their Com
rades' Dead Bodies,
(By Associated Press.O

Port Royal, Pa, June 13.-Another ex-
ploring party of ten men started into
the burning mine at this place today al
O'Clock to try and recover the bodies.
The rescuers were told before they
started that they were taking their lives
In their hands. as the mine is full of gas
ard more explosions are liable to occur
at any time.
At $40 this morning the sixth explo-
sion occurred. 1t was caused by the
gas igniting from the fire below. In
spector Dixon, who headed the party
this morning, is confident that he will
be able to recover some of the bodies.
The party went down in ten seconds,
and as the cage was lowered the crowd
on the outside of the ropes gave a cheer
and many fervent "Godspeeds'' were
said. The inquest on the bodies of those
aready taken out of the mine on Tues
day was resumed again this morning.
