yesterday, was resumed at O'Clock this
morning.
The searching parties were unable to
work last night owing to the dense
volumes of sulphur gas which permeated
every portion of the 1S miles of under
ground workings. 1t is not expected
that all of the bodies will be recovered
before midnight tonight, and it may even
be longer. The full number of dead will
not be known until a complete roster of
the employees has been secured and those
who escaped accounted for. There may
be SO more bodies in the mine. 1t is
certain that every man who was i'm
prisoned in the mine is dead; no living
being could exist in the awful sulphur
fumes for more than a few minutes.
The work of bringing down the bodies
Of the victims was slow and laborious,
the steep trail making it very difficult to
carry the bodies. The bodies were placed
upon improvised stretchers and then
raised upon the shoulders OF stalWart
miners and brought to the coroner's
office where they were laid in rows.
From $50 to 200 men were engaged in
this work.
Shift Bosses Horgleson and Barkley
sacrificed their lives in vain attempt
to save the lives of their associates.
They had ample warning of the fire and
could easily have escaped from the tun-
mel Instead they went back into the
workings to spread the alarm. They sue
ceeded probably in warning only few
of the men in the mine before they
themselves We're overcome.
The coroner will hold an inquest upon
but one body, the verdict in this case be-
ing deemed sufficient to cover ali of the
casualties.
| A large crowd began gathering at the
| Smuggler- Union mine early this morn
| ing, every man volunteering to join
rescue parties. Only the most expert
| enced miners have been chosen for this
| dangerous work, and at 9 o'clock the
| first rescue party entered the workings.
Their progress is slow and it will be
| several hours, it is thought, before any
more bodies are encountered.
