Miners BURIED ALIVE.
BY AN EXPLOSION IN THE
VIRGINIA MINES.
Over q Hundred Are EntOmed.
They Are Probably All Dead
Before Now. Every Effort
Being Made to Reach
the Unfortunate
Victims.

Birmingham, Ala Feb. 20.-By
an explosion in the Virginia mines
about Is miles southwest of Birm-
ingham at 4 o'clock this afternoon,
between ITO and 1876 union miners
are entombed and it is believed that
the entire number suffered death.
Scores of vigorous rescuers are at
work digging into the mine to re-
lieve their friends and comrades on
the inside.
The explosion is believed to have
been caused by an accumulation of
dust, althoL gh the mine has hereto
fore been noted for being entirely
free from such. It is also believed
that as the entire quota has probab-
ly been killed the details of the cause
of the disaster will never be known.
The news spread. like wild fire
throughout the whole district. The
camp is almost isolated from the
rest of the world, as there is no tele-
phone station at Virginia and the
only wire running to the place is a
dispatcher's wire Of the Bennington
Mineral Railroad, on which Vir-
ginia is located. Details of the dis
aster were slow to come IN, but each
man who arrived in the city from
the scene told a more gruesome story
of the horror.
The class OF miners employed was
the best in the district, and I'll be-
longed to the United Nine Workers
of America. Since the strike has
been on in the Birmingham district,
many of the most industrious and
thrifty miners of Pratt City and
other important mining points have
removed to the Virginia mines, so
that the mines were being worked
to their full capacity by the most
skilled miners of the community.
Relief trains with surgeons and
workmen were dispatched from
Birmingham and Bessemer as soon
as the news of the disaster was
learned. They are working faith
fully to reach the men entOmbed, but
it will be at least 10 O'Clock to-mor-
row before they can be reached.
