An Earlier Report.

Birmingham, Ala, Dec. 16.-Ad-
vices early tonight from Yolande indi-
cate that about sixty men met death
by the explosion of the mines at that
place this morning. The work of re-
covery is very slow, and while hun
dreds of miners from the adjacent
mining camps are present to assist in
the work, it is thought that all the
dead cannot be recovered from the
mine before tomorrow. Only twelve
bodies had been recovered up to 6
o'clock. The explosion occurred at
about 1890 this morning, and so far
its cause has not been determined.
Less than one hundred men went in
the mine this morning, and this ac-
counts for the fact that the loss of
life was not heavier The mine in
the past had been pronounced free
from gas by the state mine inspectors.
and it is supposed that the explosion
was caused by dust. When a mine is
not properly sprinkled. and the air is
allowed to become filled with fine
coal dust particles, it becomes almost
as explosive as gas itself.
At noon it was impossible to ven
ture near the mouth Of the mine, so
hot was the air that was rushing out.

The Webster's skipper steadied him. self against the sternpost with one hand and with the other waved his coat frantically until convinced he was seen from tue bark. It took the last of his strength. for he sank Senseless to his slanting deck as the Frenchman put about and lowered boat. Getting the delirious seamen off the Webster was no light task. for a heavy sea was running. The last thing Maxwell did aboard his schooner was to wisp news papers into torch and fire her in sev- eral places.
 The United States consul in Rouen sent the shipwreclled men from that city to Southampton, whence they came back to their own land. Captain Maxwell hurried thence to Philadel- phia to report to the owners of the

 A Few Biscuits.
 The Webster ran into a heavy gale off the dangerous cape on April 8 when homeward bound from Wilmington, N. c. She sprang a leak forward and filled quickly, but vigorous pumping restored her buoyancy. Another gale throttled her on the 9th, and soon the pumps were powerless. Her bows went under water and stayed there. Captain and crew took refuge in the stern and resigned themselves to drift ing until picked up. All they could save from the ships stores amounted to a keg of biscuit and that lone gallon of water. The skipper was allotting ra- tions to his men when a giant wave swept the keg overheard. About a dozen biscuits rolled out of the keg. and the men hurled themselves on them. Those biscuits constituted their diet through the next six days.
 Every man, including Maxwell. was in shape bad enough to call for hospital care. The hands of each were swollen from long work on the pumps and cracked from the salt of the sea. Each was covered with bruises and had sev- eral severe wounds from the fights with the gales. All were starving by the second day of their long drift. Max wells authority was tested to the ut most to save few of the biscuits from immediate consumption. Several of the men were ready to fight like wolves for the last crumb. There was no mutiny against the captains rigor, for he stay ed awake most of the time, straining for sight of a ship by day or lights by night. It was better to watch than sleep anyhow, for wave after wave swept the little clump of crouching men, and slumber might mean death. Most of the time the weather was win-

FLUNG FROM GALE TO GALE
Dismantled Schooner's Crew Were Dy- ing of Hunger and Thirst When Pick ed Up-Castaways Taken to France Return to America.

New York, May 22. = Flung from gale to gale, the schooner Everett Web ster of Philadelphia was jammed head down into the Atlantic off Hatteras, and for six days her captain and six men lived on a few sea biscuit and gallon of water, with the result that when they were rescued by the French bark Quevilly's crew all the sailors were delirious and the skipper was close to death. That happened in last months first half, yet when Captain Clarendon Maxwell of the Webster and his men arrived here in the steam ship Philadelphia after a sojourn in France and England they had not shaken off the horror of their experi- ence. Nor did it help them to do so when they learned their abandoned schooner, which they thought they had burned well enough to insure her sink ing still was plunging about in the trade lane, a constant menace to ships big and little.
