ALL PROBABLY PERISHED
EIGHT MISSING MINE OFFICIALS NOT
FOUND YESTERDAY.
Rescuing Party Unable to Penetrate
the Workings More Than
Three Hundred Yards.

POCAHONTA5, W. Va. Nov. 23.-An
hope of finding the eight mining officials
who entered the West mine yesterday to
search for bodies entombed by the recent
explosion in the Baby mine. has about
been abandoned. A rescuing party entered
the mine this morning, but were able TO
proceed only 800 yards. They found the
coat Of Superintendent OMalley hanging
on peg about 200 yards in the mine but
discovered no other trace of the party. The
mining experts now here have decided on
a plan of attempted rescue. but the mine Of
ficials refuse to give any information to
the public. 1t is said that another effort
will be made TO enter the mine Hopes
had been entertained up to this morning
that the men had escaped through the Tug
river outlet, ten miles distant and messen-
gers were dispatched at an early hour TO
this point. They failed to find any trace
of the party.
Assistant Superintendent King, who led
the rescuing party yesterday, and who was
overcome by black damp, has entirely re-
covered. He says Ii is impossible for
human being to live fifteen minutes in
mine in the condition it was when his party
entered yesterday 1t has been raining
hard since early morning and the main en-
trance to the mine presents a gloomy ap-
pearance with the friends and relatives of
the missing men standing around
At 8 p. nothing had been heard of the
missing officials. No effort has been made
to enter the mine since early morning 1t
being impossible to do so on account of the
enormous accumulation of gas in the mine.
Until the passages connecting the two
mines are entirely closed and the gas forced
out by means of large fans IT will be i'm
practicable to explore the mines. Large
forces are working day and night to free
the mines from gas. but II is impossible
now TO form any definite idea as TO when
the mines will be considered safe for
searching parties TO enter. Some who are
familiar with the mines claim that il may
be several days before such a party could
enter The fire has now been burning ten
days. Including the eight missing men the
probable total death list numbers seven
teen persons Hundreds were gathered
around the mine entrance tonight anxious
ly awaiting developments.

Port Townsend, Wash. Oct. I3.-According to ad-

ball, Nome again visited by severe storm
which began on the night OF September 2s and con-
tnued for three days with increasing fury. As a
result every lighter that anchored off Nome
is ashore and the government tug Captain Warden
is the beach. While the storm was almost as
severe the memorable storm Of last year the
most serious damage will result from the delay
in getting lighters aoat, that they can be used
IN discharging the large number OF steamers due
at Nome in time for the vessels TO get out before
navigation shall close.
The only loss OF life a result OF the storm thus
far reported occurred while the storm abating.
