Telluridge, Col, ((SpeciaD The
most terrible snowslide ever known in
Colorado caused the death of from 60
to Is men at Liberty Bell Mine, on
Smuggler Mountain. Although the
scene of the disaster is scarcely two
miles from this town, information is
difficult to obtain on account of the
precipitous character of the roads and
the vast amount of snow. Nearly all
the buildings of the Liberty Bell Mine
were carried down by the slide, all the
books which show the number and
names of the men employed being lost,
so that the death list can hardly be
known for some time.
The first slide occurred while the men
OF the day shift were preparing for their
days work. About 200 men are en-
ployed in the mines and mills of the
Liberty Bell Company, and less than
half these were at work at the time of
the accident. The others were in the
clearinghouse or bunkhouse near by.
Both these buildings were carried down
the mountain side a distance of 1000
feet and crushed by tons of snow. The
surviving employees OF the Liberty Bell
began the work of rescuing the victims
of the slide. Several were taken out
alive and = dozen or more bodies were
removed from the snow, which lay piled
rs feet deep in the bottom of the can
yon. A little after noon second slide,
starting a short distance above the first
and practically following its track, swept
down the mountain side, barying many
of the rescuers.
A third slide came down at :, o'clock
about mile below the Liberty Bell Mine
and Gus Won Fintel, John Powell and
Paul Dalpha, who were on their return
from the scene of the morning catas-
trophe, were swept away.
The Liberty Bell Mine is one of the
three largest mines in the district. the
