THE INQUEST HAS
 BEEN POSTPONED
NO BODIES RECOVERED FROM
 VIRGINIA MINES YESTERDAY. PUMPS WORKING POORLY AND HUGH WATER STILL IN MINES.

Bessemer. March 1.-(Special 1.-The coroner's investigation of the Virginia mines disaster, which was to have be- gun today, has been postponed until the latter part of the week, probably hri- day, on account of the absence of D. l.. Mitchell, one of the members of the coroner's jury. who has been called to Louisville on account of the death of his sister.
 Not a single body was recovered from the mine today. The pumps which are in operation are working very unsatis- factorily, and it cannot be estimated just when conditions will be so the re- maining bodies can be gotten out. Up to date only 105 have been recovered.
 The work of repairing the damage done to the slope by the explosion is progressing rapidly.
 The state mine inspectors are on the scene and are doing everything in their power to assist in retaining the bodies still in the mine.
 The relief committee is still at work and up to date about S4500 has been dis tributed. U. Schwabacher, treasurer of the Bessemer committee, went to Bir- mingham this afternoon and held con- ference with the Birmingham committee.
 The canvassing committees are still at work and the fund is increasing daily.
 To Give Benefit.
 Tomorrow night at the Library hall Prof. Edward Grambs has arranged for a benefit concert in which the Temple Emanuel choir of Birmingham will take part This Is one of the best ohoirs in the state and the concert promises to be a great success. Every cent taken in to- morrow night will go to the widows and orphans and nothing whatever will be deducted for expenses.
