sUccUMB TO GAS AND SULPHUR
FUMES FROM A LOCOMOTIVE
IN A TUNNEL.
FIFTY MEN ARE OVERCOME
FIRST ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND
TO OCCUR IN TIE TUNNEL
IN FORTY YEARS.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, May ga tele-
gram received at the s~usquehanna
Coal company's Office in this city last
evening states that t@n miners were
suftocated by gas and sulphur fumes
from a small locomotive Wednesday
afternoon in the workings of the Sum
init Branch Coal company at Williams
town.
The victims included Michael Gold
en-, general inside foreman OF tas
company, and nine miners and laba--
ers.
The tunnel in which the disaste.
occurred is n mile in length and is
used by the coal company to convey
the coal mined in the workings in the
Bear Valley to the breaker in the
Williams Valley.
About 4 o'clock p. III. General Inside
Foreman Golden and about Iiiry mlne.s
boarded a loaded train which was
about to be hauled from Bear Valley
to Williamstown. Everything went
all right until about half of the jour
ney was made when some of the men
attracted the attention Of the engi-
neer, who at once stopped and it was
found that nearly every mar in the
party on the cars had been overcome
by the gas and sulphur which emanat-
ed from the stack OF the locomotive
and tloated back over them. The en-
gineer at once crowded on all steam
possible and the unconscious men
were hurried to the Williamstown end
of the tunnel. Every possible effort
to resuscitate them failed.
The tunnel had been in constant
operation for more than forty years
and this is the first accident of any
kind that has happened in it.

There were three presidential Gle

finally limited their opposition to the
unit rule. 4.
The friends of Colonel j. Kilbourne
of Columbus wanted endorsement"
The friends of Judge Judson Har-
mon of Cincinnati wanted neither en-
dorsement O instructions, but the
unit rule. The Harmon men evidently
won out.
The platform, the briefest in the his
tory of such state literature, was
adopted as it came from Cincinnati,
with the exception of the two-cent
fare plank that was added at the in
%stigation Of Mayor Johnson of Cleve-
land in the convention.
The convention was in continuous
session almost nine hours and during
the last three hours it was boisterous
al times disorderly to the extent OF
being riotous.
The delegates and alternates at
large are claimed by the Conserve
tives. friendly to Harmon, who also
claim thirty of the Ohio district dele
gates.
