MINERS MEET DEATH.
Coal Mine-six Workmen Lose
Their Lives.

Fairmont, w. Va, May Is. = Six
miners lost their lives, five were ia
tally injured and three seriously
burned in an explosion at the shaft
of the Georges Creek Coal e. Iron
company at Pennington, seven miles
west of this city on the main line
of the Baltimore g. Ohio railroad,
Wednesday morning. The dead are:
Maynard Beatty, of Huntington; Joe
Nichols, of Homecoming, Nd; j. H.
Eyerson, of Everson, w. Va; Dan Al
ferrel, of Pennington; Joe Dominick,
Italian; Ton Phillippi, Italian. The
mine was only recently put into OPP
Grafton and about 1875 men we're en-
ployed, only 40 of this number under
ground. One of the men in the
rooms, it is alleged, had struggled q
torch into the mines, as it gives so
much better light than the safety
lamps prescribed by the company.
There is an immense fan which sends
5000 feet of fresh air into the mines
at every revolution, and as the shaft
was considered one of the safest in
the region the miner did not heed
the frequent warnings of a fellow en-
ploye who warned him of the risk he
was taking. At 0:15 the miner fired
shot, and the smoke, which was
very dense, caught fire from the torch
and spread to either the gas or dust,
and the explosion resulted. Fortu-
nately the mine did not catch fire to
any extent.

TRADE REVIEW.
Leading Commercial Agencies Tell
of the situation ms IL Ap-
pears to Them.

New York. May lS.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
review of the state of trade says: Crop
reports continue In the main favorable, ana
ease In the money market tends 10 encour-
age business enterprise which looked
aghast at the collapse of stock speculation.
The calmer tone In securities Is welcomed
In all directions. AS against the favorable
departments referred TO there Is but one
adverse factor and the labor disturbances
IN several quarters are not considered ike
ly to be a long continued drawback ana
promise not to very generally anect the
trades involved. Less urgency for early
delivery of iron and steel products was re-
ported at manufacturing centers. With mills
assured of activity beyond the middle OF
the year and some uncertainty regarding
the labor organizations attitude on the
wage schedule, there is disposition to let
new engagements walt as long as possible.
Unusual activity is seen In agricultural
supplies and sotne noteworthy shipments
were reported during the week, while
makers Of this class of machinery pur-
chased freely OF bar iron. Both wheat and
corn continue to sell at more than ten cents
bushel above the price at this date last
year, and the fluctuations In speculative
options are much wider. Contracts In May
corn have been closed at phenomenal
prices, owing to clever manipulation at
Chicago, and next crop options are sus-
tained beyond the prices warranted by en-
couraging crop reports
Failures for the week numbered III In
the United States, against III last year,
and IS In Canada. against 30 last year"
Bradstreets says: aside from a quite
perceptible increase of the spirit Of unrest
In labor circles, there are few new changes
TO record In the general trade or industrial
situation. Business al present the country
over Is OF seasonable recorder character
with wholesalers in dry goods clothing
and similar lines but the volume of bust
ness Is fair for the season, and collections
are reported likewise. The basic facts UNI
Gerlying the situation continue largely OF
a favorable character Notable In this re-
spect Is the crop situation, particularly for
the cereals which is in a high degree prom
ising. The backward spring and lack of
rains in some sections has initiated
against the growth of cotton, but improve
ment Is noted even In this respect. The In
dustries are active. Iron and steel are
strong but quiet as regards new demand
for the cruder forms, but the finished prod
ucts have been heavily ordered and the
mills have sufficient business to keep them
busy from one to three months, while a
large additional business Is reported In
sight. The demand of the machinists Is re-
garded as a possibly disturbing feature,
but II Is claimed that one-fourth of the men
Involved have already succeeded in their
demands and the feeling is that this mat
ter will be adjusted with less than earlier
expected friction"
