SAW ROBBERS
AS THEY FLED
WITH BOOTY
MINE EXPLOSIONS
KILLS SEVEN MEN
carelessness Of Door-tender Was Re-
sponsible For The First Explosion
Which, However, Did
Little Damage.

Scranton, Pa, June 19.Seven men
were killed outright ana two others Be-
riously injured in two explosions Of
mine gas in the johnson No. mine at
Priceburg, late yesterday. The first ex-
plosion which occurred about 3 o'clock,
was caused by the earelessness Of a
door tender, who by leaving door
open, allowed gas to accumulate in the
workings. One man was injured as a
result of this explosion.
The second explosion, which resulted
IN the death of seven men and the injury
cf another, occurred about 6 o'clock
and resulted from the ignition Of the
deadly fire damp, which accumulated
after the first explosion.
Of the eight men who were working
IN the main gangway at the time of the
second explosion, seven we're killed in
stantly. A car runner who was near Che
foot Of the shaft when the second ex-
plosion occurred quickly gave the alarm
and a rescue party hurried to the scene
Of the explosion.
All the victims were frightfully
burned, the clothing being burned OIL
most Of them. The news of the explo-
sion spread rapidly throughout Price
burg, mining hamlet just north 81
Scranton, and hundreds Of wives, chill
dren and other relatives Of those who
were employed in the mine hurried ia
the shaft. SO badly dis6gured were the
bodies of those who were killed that
Identification at the time was impos-
sible. Harsh measures had 10 be pur.
sued by the mine officials to keep toe
crowds back, and hundreds followed the
ambulances to undertaking establish
ments.
About 1900 men work in the mine
but as no account was kept Of those
who had come out before the explosion
occurred it Is impossible to determine
until the rescuing party returns ii the
dead list Is complete.
