Yolande. Ala. Dec. ,.-Forty-two
bodies have been taken from the i'll
fated Yolande mine. in which an ex-
plosion occurred. Nineteen more are
reported in the mines, making a to-
tai OF sixty-one victims. The rescue
parties have toiled In the mine
against fearful odds. The hot air
and smoke from the explosion have
made II difficult to get into the lower
entries. and several or the rescue
party have been overcome at different
times and have had TO be brought TO
the surface for fresh air.
No one is yet able to tell what
caused the explosion The theory
most generally accepted now is that
one of the men allowed a stick OF
dynamite to explode. which stirred up
the dust, and this IN turn exploded
spreading death and destruction
through the whole mine. This theory
is borne out by the fact that the en-
tire front Of one mans body was torn
away. His backbone alone remained.
and one leg was partially torn Off
Men at the mine contend that this
man was probably holding a stick Of
dynamite when Il went off.
The pumps were disabled by the ex
plosion, and the rescuers are making
superhuman efforts TO get the bodies
out Of the lower steps before the
water rises over them
The damage TO the mine Itself Is not
as great as first thought. Twenty-six
men, who were in the mine az the
time of the explosion, made their es-
cape.
Negroes were the greatest sufferers
from the disaster. as less than one
