Owen McHugh Instantly Killed in
Clark Tunnel Company's Mine
Grad Morris Injured.

While at work Saturday in the Clark
Tunnel company's mine, owen McHugh
was instantly killed and Craddock
Morris was seriously injured.
The accident occurred about a. M,
shortly after the men began their daily
toll. Both men were employed as tim
bermen and were placing timbers along
the gangway in the fourteen-foot vein.
McHugh was working on one side of
the road and Morris on the other.
While making prop holes, they dis
turbed the rib. A few warning crack
ings We're heard, and before the men
could get away, portion of the roof
fell, with d great crash, burying Nc
Hugh almost completely and forcing
Norris to the ground.
The great roar of the fall attracted
the attention of the miners in the
other roads, and soon willing hands
were at work digging for the remains
of McHugh and releasing Morris from
the fall.
Morris was removed to the surface
and was taken to his home, where Drs.
Sullivan and Rodham We're called.
Upon examination, it was found that
he had received several large cuts
about the head and shoulders. His
condition is not as serious as 1T was
first reported, but he is not yet out of
danger. Morris is a brother to en-
Councilman Morris V. Morris, and re-
sides on Leggett street
The remains of McHugh were taken
to his home on West Market street and
prepared for burial. A widow and sew
eral children survive him.
