MEAGER NEWS RECEIVED.
Little Known at Company's Office of
 the Disaster.

Denver. Colo, Nov. H.-Only a meager report concerning the disastrous fire at the Smuggler Union mine, near Tellur- idle, Colo, has been received at the local office of the company, It Is not known hero this morning whether the loss or life will reach one hundred as feared. or whether any bodies have been found in addition to the twenty-two which were recovered and identified last night. The damage caused by the fire In the loss of buildings Is estimated at $1S,00O, but the mine will have to be closed for at least a month.
 The mouth of Bullion tunnel. through which the Smuggler Union mines are worked, is located not over fifty or sixty feet from the burned buildings. The smoke from the start seemed to be drawn to the mouth of the tunnel, and 1t encircled that point as if there were no other place of escape. This was due to suction as the air in the mine was warm CT than that outside. On account Of the suction movement the majority of mine and tunnel entrances have iron doors ready to lower in place at minutes mo- tice to stop smoke or fire Unfortunately the Bullion tunnel did not possess one of these safeguards.
 It appears that much of the stupefy- ing effect of the fire was due to the flames in the converter house, which was saturated with oil and which emit ted the darkest smoke imaginable. The tunnel is situated about midway between the top or apex of the mine, and the ninth level. It is an intermediate working tunnel. The seventh level Is 1.750 feet below the surface and the ninth level, where between seventy-five anr ninety five miners were working when the fire occurred. Is 2, 2,OO0 feet below the surface.
 tA last accounts all attempts to ex- plore this level had been frustrated by the smoke. Seventeen of the twenty-two bodies recovered were found in the sev- enth level. The fire did not penetrate the mine workings and the frightful loss of life was due entirely to smoke.
 The mine was originally owned by company of which John Porter of this city was President and A. H. Fowler. Secretary and Treasurer. About two years ago the mine, with a number of others in the same locality, was absorbed by the New England Exploring Company of which B. J. Lawrence is now the head and one of the principal stockholders. The New England Company is controlled by Boston capitalists. MT. Lawrence went to New York about a week ago.
 Arthur Collins, manager of the mine, is also absent on a trip to Mexico. Jacob F1lens, attorney for the company, left for Telluride last night to make an in vestigation The Executive Board of the Western Federation of Miners now in session in this city, discussed the disaster at their meeting today The members averred that agitation would commence in labor circles to procure legislation which would remedy the evils which
