Coal company as the man best ht to
lead the forlorn hope. He went down
into the mine bravely and with him
George. Harvath, was brought from the
pit but short time before Taylor's
lifeless body came to the surface
Another Of the rescue party, Tom
Wood, tried desperately to save his
companions, but felt the deadly nau'
sea coming on and was forced to
leave them to their fate. a,.z-.
Volunteers Enter the Mine.
In response to a call for aid many
men from mining towns in the vicin.
ity have appeared at the Harwick
property and as fast as the little
bucket could take them down they
went with willing but determined
faces. In all the group of experienced
could be found who would say that
he believed one more living man
would be brought from the darkness
beyond the bottom of the shaft.
The search party is being directed
by w. F. Cunningham, mine inspector
OF this district. 5@ 49,
No news has yet come from the lit
tie party cropping their way into the
headings, but few above the ground
believe that they will have much
good cheer to give.
In expectation of the bringing up OF
the bodies eight Pittsburg detectives
are patrolling the ropes at the pit
mouth, but so far have experienced
no trouble. .,.,>.s
II it is once settled beyond doubt
that all the men in the mine are dead
the work of veAtilating the mine can
proceed more rapidly, but that is the
trouble and has been since the work
OF rescue began. To work the fan in
q way to quickly clear the mine of foul
air would drive the afterdamp in onto
the men who may have found q tenn
porary place of refuge and it would
mean almost instant death to them.
Contributions to aid the families of
the entOmbed miners are already com
ing in. There are more than 100
widows and probably 400 or 500 or
Dhans. 49,.
Double Explosion Occurred.
The explosion which caused the
terrible loss Of life seems to have
OSSu u UOuDl0 Oue, uldh1uS Cu0 COu-
tinuous rumble, and the second blast
was heard rolling back under the hills
toward the south end of the mine,
which contains by far the largest part
of the workings. The mine is at the
head of what Is known as Shops run.
The highest officials of the Harwick
mine and nearly every miner who is
alive in the little mining; village are
at q loss to give the cause for the ter
rible disaster. It is the opinion of the
majority, however. that the explosion
was caused by some foreign miner
striking match to light his pipe.
which set off the heavy charge Of gas
that was always present in the mine.
Another theory. for the explosion is
that 1t was caused by q heavy blast
In the mine whereby new: pocket Of
gas was struck and Immediately ig-
nited. There are still others who In
sist that the gaseous substance was
set OF by broken safety lamp in the
hands Of one OF the miners. @ a
1t was the opinion OF the rescuers
around the top Of the Harwick mine
shaft that the real cause OF the explo-
sion would never be known and they
gave as their reason that the miner
or miners who were probably respon.
sible for the catastrophe were dead.
