A HORRIBLE FATE.
Fourteen Men Instantly Killed
in a Colorado Mine.
The Accident Is Believed to Have Been
Due to a Defect in the Hosting
Engine Brake Connection
Controlled BY Air.

Victor, Col, Jan. 27.-Fourteen men
were instantly killed Tuesday morn
ing at STATIONS independence mine
by the falling of a cage.
A gang of Is was on its way from
the workings below in a cage, which
travelled at a rapid speed The ma
chinery became deranged and the en-
gineer found himself helpless to stop
the car as it approached the top Of the
shaft
The cage crashed into the heavy
beams and the cable broke, precipitat-
ing the cage 1900 feet to the bottom
of the shaft.
Two men managed to grasp iron
bars at the top and held on. One, how
ever, was killed, and the other badly
crushed.
The descent of the cage was like a
lightning flash. The bodies of the men
presented a sickening spectacle, arms,
legs and heads being torn away while
the surrounding walls were bespatter-
I'd with their blood.
The accident is believed to have been
due to a defect in the hosting engine
brake connection, which is controlled
by air. The engine is a first motion
double reel, and the two cages work
rs cOunterbalanccs. The cages each
weigh nearly two tons. In starting the
cage from the 600 foot Dvel Tuesday
steam was used, but after the cage
had gone up a certain distance under
steam pressure, the steam was shut
off and the weight Of the counterbal-
lneing descending cage in the other
shaft compartment was allowed to
bring the load of miners to the sur
lace, as is the custom. When the cage
With the 16 miners arrived at the sur
ace Engineer Gelles to his horror dis
eovered that the air brakes would not
york. Similar accidents in which no
ives were lost have occurred twice
nefore at the independence mine with
the same engineer now in use there.

MISS DRUMMOND DROWNED.
Proprietress Of Iron Springs Hotel Drowres
on North Beach.

Miss G. E. Drummond was drowned
on North Beach last Saturday, while at.
tempting to cross Joe creek in buggy.
Miss Drummond and brother-in-law
attempted to cross Joe creek in buggy,
but when in the middle of the stream
the horse began to balk and finally fell.
Both occupants jumped out to free the
horse and Miss Drummond swept from
her feet, but regained her hold again and
assisted in freeing the horse. As soon
as the horse became free the buggy was
caught by the mad current and over
turned, and crushing the unfortunate
woman beneath it, was carried to the
sea. This creek empties directly into
the ocean and the heavy rains Of recent
days had made it raging torrent.
Miss Drummond has conducted the
hotel at Iron Springs for the past two
years, and had q host of friends on
Grays Harbor who will mourn her UNI
timely fate. Only few months ago she
saved a man from drowning in that
vicinity by heroically going into the rag
ing water and bringing him ashore.

The meeting of the city county last
Wilson absent.
The action Of Engineer Parr in stopping
the erection OF wood shed in rear OF l..
w. Walkers temporary building, was
sustained.
The summons in the case of the City
Retail Lumber Co. VS.. l. W. Mason, w.
II. Abel and City OF Aberdeen, was re.
ferred to the attorney. This action was
to set aside an assignment of city war.
rants due l. W. Mason for building Mar
ket street sidewalks to W. H. Abel. The
assignment provides that Abel pay the
City Retail Lumber Co. $2,34O.24, H. l..
Cook & Co $3.50 so, and H. Schouwiler
$40. The lumber company asks to have
the city restrained from issuing such
warrants to Abel, and wants judgment
for 2.340. - and costs.
J. NJ. Lewis was awarded the contract
for tending the Heron street bridge, for
500. SO month, and J. A. Damitio the
North Aberdeen bridge, for $40 month.
J. &. Haynes was awarded the con-
tract to furnish 1910 cords of wood at
the pumping station for $1.93 cord.
The matter O repairing the water
main crossing the Chehalis river to the
Michigan mil. was referred to the water
committee, with power to act.
G. E. Burrows appeared and objected
to the changes made in the gas franchise
which limited the time for it's acceptance
to 80 days, and reduced the maximum
charge for gas from $500 to $3.50 per M
feet. AS there were not a sufficient
number of counclmen present to pass
franchise, the matter went over.
Another whirl was taken at the cow
ordinance, but it was again laid over.
Mayor West vetoed the ordinance sub
hitting the bridge location at the cleo
ton, for the reason that it conficted
with ordinance No. $40. Action On the
veto was deferred, and it is not probable
any futther action will be taken in the
matter.
The equalization of special improve.
ment assessment roll No. 10S was con-
tnued one week.
