not fired, as stated in the early reports.
but the explosion was terrific and com
pletely shattered the timbers OF the
main shaft and numerous entrances
filled the workings With debris. and
those OF the miners who were not killed
outright by the explosion were buried
alive.
The explosion was heard for mary
miles around, and attracted people
from this and adjoining settlements.
Huge timbers and railroad iron We're

and reach the entombed miners. Their
progress into the mine vas blocked by
the foul gases, and several times they
were forced to return to the surface.

Late at night party Of rescuers

this caused hopes TO arise in the
breasts of the tired workers, and the
anxious women and children gathered
about the shaft. 1t is faint hope,
however, for experienced mine bosses
and miners say that when the impris-
