 Yet Un1xnOwn.

Carbondale. H.. April 4-Thirty- seven bodies of miners who lost their lives in the gas explosion at the mine of Joseph Letter at Zeigler yesterday have been recovered and 1t is supposed several more are in the mine. The exact number of dead will probably not be known for some days or at least until the mine has been cleared of gas and persons may enter with safety.
 Among the dead is William Scott Atkinson. State Mine Examiner for the seventh sub-district, who lost his life in an attempt to perform his duties as mine inspector and reach the bodies of those who were entombed. He was the father of four children and was a member of the Masonic frater- nifty.
 All the mines in the seventh sub district have been ordered to shut down on Friday next. the day of his funeral and special trains have been ordered so that the 10000 miners can attend the funeral.
 Joseph Letter arrived at the shaft today. The coroner's jury empaneled to inquire into the cause of the disas- ter has so far rendered no verdict. The taking of evidence may be pro- longed several days. So far the cause of the explosion is not known.

Throughout the match Attell used
practically only one blow-a left jab

fondness for clinching to avoid pun

ers called magnificent. while those of
Sullivan dubbed it sprinting match.
Sullivan did about all the fighting and
inflicted a good deal of punishment.
