EIGHTEEN MINERS KILLED
"5lown" Shot Claims Great Harvest
In Utah Mine

Diamondville, Wyo., Dec. 3.-Eigh.
teen miners lost their lives in an ex-
plosion in the Diamond Coal and Coke
company's mine No. 1.
1t is believed that all the men who
persisted were instantly killed. The
theory advanced by the miners is
that blown out" shot caused the
disastrous explosion which wrecked
the mine. The force of the explosion
was felt all over the town, rocking
buildings so violently that occupants
ran out into the open. The news
that there had been another disaster
at the Diamond mine-and the second
in less than five years-quickly spread
through the village, and practically
the whole population of Diamondville
flocked to the mine shaft. In the
Oct. rs, 1901, thirty-two miners per.
ished.
