TWO HUNDRED DEAD
AWFUL coLLlERY EXPLOSION.

disaster IN the ffatervlIIc Mine al
Coal Creek, Tennessee-Men and
Boys Killed by the Explosion of
Gas-onIy One Came Out Alive,
and He Will Die.
Coal Creek. Tenn. May 2O.-Between
175 and 225 men and boys met instant
death at the Fraterville coal mine. To-
Gated two miles west of this town at
1:3O O'Clock yesterday morning, be-
cause of a gas explosion.
OF the large number of men and boys
who went to work yesterday morning
only one is alive. and he is so badly
injured that he cannot live. This man
is William Morgan. an aged English
man, who was road man in the mine.
He was blown out of the entrance
by the force of the explosion.
One hundred and seventy-tive miners
We're checked in for work yesterday
morning by the mine boss. In addi-
ton to these there We're boys who
acted as helpers and drivers, and road
men and others to the number of per-
hapS fifty.
The Fraterville mine is the Oldest
mine in the Coal Creek district. hav-
ing been opened in 1870. 1t is fully
three miles from the opening of the
mine to the point where the men were
at work. They had not been at work
long before the terrible explosion oc-
cured. There was fearful roar. and
then flames shot from the entrance
and the airshafts.
AS soon as possible two rescuing par
ties We're started in. one at the main
entrance. the other through the Thistle
mine, which adjoins and in which no
men We're at work The Thistle party
was unable to make any headway, as
the gas stified the workers. The Frat
erville party went fully two miles un-
der the earth until Il heavy fall of
slate was encountered. At this barrier
men worked desperately. hoping
against hope that those beyond might
be safe.
The news of the disaster spread
quickly, and the scenes at the mouth
of the mine while the workers We're
within We're beyond description.
Business was suspended in Coal
Creek and all its mines as soon as the
news became known. and men. women
and children gathered around the Frat
crville entrance. Women whose hus-
bands and SONS were within were wild
with grief.
All day long the rescuers toiled at
the slate obstruction. and not until ,
O'Clock did they force an entrance
through it. Up to that hour only five
dead bodies had been recovered and
hope was still high that many miners
within were safe. The hopes of the
living We're doomed. however. for when
once the rescuers had entered and pro-
ceeded they walked along one con-
tinuous tomb of death. There was not
n sign of life. Every man had per-
ished, they believed although it will be
early in the morning before all the
rooms can be entered.
