SIXTY MINERS MEET DEATH
IN WYOMING COAL MINE
Gas Explosion In Same Mine IL
Which, In 1908, One Hundred and
Sixty-nine Lives Were
Snuffed Out.

Hanna, Wyo.-This camp was Wis
tied by another catastrophe Saturday
afternoon, and the lives of probably
sixty men were snuffed out by an ex-
plosion of gas in mine No. / of the
Union Pacific Coal company. fire
had been raging below the tenth level
for week, and the force of 200 min.
ers had been laid off for the day, fear
ing an accident might occur. Super.
intendent Briggs and Foreman Bur-
ton, with crew of eighteen men, all
experienced miners, with gas men
and fire fighters, went down into the
workings early in the morning to
fight the conilagration, which was
rapidly eating it's way through the
workings.
At 3 O'Clock the men above the
workings, the idle miners in their
homes and about town, were startled
by an awful roar, followed by a heavy
boom and. the shaking of the earth
and trembling of the buildings All
knew what had happened, and there
was rush to the mine. Both entries

MINE MANAGERS
NARROW ESCAPE
Bomb Exploded Under Bed Of Gen.
eral Bulkely Wells, Who Has
Narrow Escape from Death.
Marked Man Hurled Against the
Ceiling, But Only Slightly In
Jured.-No clue Has Been Found
to Perpetrator Of DastardIy
Deed.

Telluride, Colo.-Eluding the night
guard stationed at the Smuggler-U MON
mine at Pandora, two miles south of
Telluride, and the searchlight which
Is constantly thrown about the prem.
Uses during the night from the high
tower Of the mill as a precautionary
measure, an unknown person gained
access to the residence of General
Buckley Wells, general manager of
the Smuggler.U Mining company,
and planted dynamite under his bed.
The dynamite was exploded by ignit.
Ing fuse on the outside of the build.
Ing about 2 o'clock Saturday morn.
Ing, when the intended victim was
asleep. He was hurled against the
ceiling and alighted under a mass of
debris, but escaped with some
scratches and bruises and impaired
hearing
Although a systematic search has
been made by Sheriff Fitzpatrick and
deputies, aided by hundreds of citi.
zens, no clue has been found to the
perpetrator of the deed.
In the same building where the at
tempt to kill General Wells was made,
six years ago Arthur l.. Collins, prede-
cessor OF General Wells as general
manager, was assassinated while play.
ing game OF cards with a number of
friends at night. The man who MUIR
dered Collins fired a load of heavy
buckshot through the window into his
back. Steve Adams, Harry Orchards
alleged accomplish in the murder Of
Ex-Governor Steunenberg of Idaho,
now in Jail In Telluride, will soon be
placed on trial on the charge of MUIR
dering Collins. General Wells is
chiefly responsible for Adams being
brought back to Colorado on this
charge.

WILL ABANDON MINE.
As Soon as Bodies Are Recovered,
Coal Mine at Hanna viii be
Sealed Up.

Hanna, Wyo.-The bodies of only
five of the fifty-nine miners and mine
officials killed in the Inflated mine
No. l of the Union Pacific Coal com.
rany have been recovered. Other
bodies will probably not be reached
for several days.
The widows and orphans are be-
ing cared for and there is no destitu.
ton. The entrances of the mine
where the dead miners are entombed
have been sealed and until the fire
is smothered or some method is de-
vised for lifting the lethal gases
which fill the workings, and II be-
comes possible to go down the slope
and fight the flames at close quar-.
tiers, no effort to enter the mine will
be made, for certain death undoubt
eddy would await those who dared
venture. Meanwhile, great forces Of
men are laboring at both stope en-.
frances. removing wreckage. SO Il.
tanic were the blasts of burning gas
that the lining of the Slopes was
stripped and hurled forth to fall in
fragments over wide expanse OF
prairie. illlDeTS as large dS tele'
graph poles were thrown 1000 feet
from the pit.
Many suits for damages will be
brought at once against the coal com.
pany by relatives of the victims, and
e is estimated that this double dis.
aster will cost the operators not less
than 100000. The holocaust of 1903
cost the company more than $1,000.
900. 1t is announced now that this
mine will be abandoned and sealed
as soon as the bodies are recovered.
There is talk OF petitioning the gov.
ernor to appoint commission OF ex.
perts to probe this disaster, and II
the rumors afioat as to the unsafe
condition of the colliery are verified,
then efforts will be made to close II
through process of law.

ENGLAND FEEDS AMERICA
WITH HER OWN MEAT.
Timed Goods Reshlpped to New
York From London as Result Of
Scarcity Of Meat In America.

Chicago.-A special from London
says: Two million pounds Of timed
meat, valued at 100000, have been
reshipped to New York from London
during the last few weeks as a result
of the scarcity Of meat in America.
AS a consequence OF the recent finan-
cial crisis, American farmers who
were unable to effect loans placed
their cattle on the markets instead
OF feeding them, with the result that
price of meat fell while its consump-
ton increased.
From this fact has resulted the
unusual spectacle of England feeding
America with its own meat, even
with the freight to pay twice across
the Atlantic"
A representative of a Chicago firm
here says: I'VE have been able to
sell the reshipped goods in America
at prices per cent higher than we
could obtain here. London today Is
the cheapest meat market In the
world.

ANARCHISTS ATTACK OFFICERS.
Bomb ExpIodes In Hands Of Would-be
Assassin and He Is Mortally
Wounded.

New York.-As the result of the ex-
plosion of bomb in the hands OF an
anarchist, two men were fatally in
iured and four others were slightly
1urt.
The bomb was intended for the po-
ice, who, with rough firmness, had
broken up a meeting of 10000 unem-
ployed. 1t exploded prematurely in
the hands Of the assassin, horribly
wounding him, killing his companion,
njuring slightly four policemen, and
throwing to the ground a score Of
those who were massed in the vicinity.
Little is known of the bomb-thrower
beyond what he has told himself. Rem
iered unconscious at first, he later
regained his senses at hospital, and
under prolonged questioning declared
that he had been commissioned to kill
the police. They had beat him, he
said. At first he had insisted that he
acted alone, and later when he said
that his act was inspired, he refused
to reveal the identity of his com.
panions.

Washngton.-The proposed estab.
