From the Scene.
FIFTEEN DEAD BODIES RECOVERED
Ii Is Thought % Miners Lost Their
Lives and That Number
May Be Exceeded.
A Large Rescuing Party Is at Work
The Cause of the Terrible Catas-
trophe Has Not AS Yet
Been Determined.

Blueield, w. Va, Feb. 27.-As a re-
suit of an explosion in shaft No. 1, of
the United States Coal and Coke Co.,
at Wilcoe, % miners are supposed to
have lost their lives, and it is possible
that the number will exceed this. Up
to p. m. Is dead bodies had been
taken from the shaft. A large res
culng party is in the mines. 1t is
barely possible that some of the en-
tombed miners will be rescued alive
The explosion was of terrific force and
shattered glass windows mile dis
tant. Immediately after the shock
great numbers of miners rushed to the
shaft to find immense clouds of smoke
and dust gushing from its mouth. The
officials of the mines, including Gen
eral Manager Refs, were soon on the
ground and the work of rescuing the
imprisoned men was begun. The dead
thus far recovered are Italians and
Hungarians, and have not as yet been
identified. The company usually works
in this shaft about Is men.
The United States Coal and Coke
Co., with principal offices in Pittsburg,
Pa, is a part of the United States
Steel corporation
The cause of the explosion has not
as yet been determined.
