EIGHT DYNAMITE VICTIMS
Miners Killed in the Ludinston Shaft
Of the Chaplin Mine Tuesday.
SEVEN ~SUFFOCATED BY FUMES
A Powder-thawing Machine
Became Red Hot.
SET OFF DYNAMITE STORED NEARBY

Iron Mountain, Mich, juno 4.-Eight
miners we're killed today in the seventh
level OF the Ludineton shaft eof the
Chaplin mine by the fumes following
an explosion of dynamite.
Dead--Antonio Farnetti, John Amone,
Joseph Passiri, John Milano, Louis
Tassi, John Bertelli, Rinildo Ausninio
and an unknown Polish miner.
Neary 30 children were rendered
fatherless by the explosion.
The men entered the level early this
morning, and began preparations for
the days work by.starting a powder
thawing machine. 1t is supposed they
scattered through the workings nearby,
and forgot to keep the machine supplied
with powder. If this supposition is
correct, the reason for the explosion
lies in the fact that the machine snon
became red hot and set off quantity
Of dynamite stored nearby. The fumes
quickly spread. and the men were over
come before they realized their danger.
Tnis explanation is borne out by the
fact that only one of the budies was
dis6gured, showing that seven died from
sutfooation.

RAILWAY MATTERS.
City Railway Co. to Resume Building the
Line on Vandever Avenue.

City Railway Co. to Resume Building the
Line on vandever avenue.
The Wilmington City Railway Co.
has decidud to resume building its
trolley extension on Vandever avenue,
and Tuesday Superintendent g.
Reginald Van Trump was before tho
Directors of the Street and Sewer Dsl
partment relative to the matter! He
asked weather it was the pleasure ui
the Departmental have the TRACKS laid
in the middle Of the estieet or on ono
side. ana he was instructed to have
the tracks placed in the middle.
: The work was begun about month
ago, but at that time only one square
was laid, that between Market and
Buena Vista streets. The line will
connect the lRiverview and Eleventh
streets bridge routes and will be q
great accommodation to people living
between Market and Claymont streets
and will relieve the Riverview line In
summer, when the park travel is so
heavy.
Contrary to expectation the Street
and Sewer Department did not take up
the matter of the company's making
an extension on Washington street.
That matter will probably be con-
sidered next week.

pany stating that the matter would be
