Four of the victims are negroes, four

Long Series of Accidents.
Zeigler, ILL.,, Jan. 1.-THE series of
mishaps in Joe Letters famous million
dollar cClliery here during the last
few years reached a climax shortly
after l o'clock yesterday morning when
mysterious explosion killed "a men.
This is the second serious disaster in
the Zeigler Coal company's property
which has been the scene of several
minor fatalities and where for more
than two years a desperate labor war
was waged as the result of a strike.
An explosion in 1905 killed 35 men at
work in the mine
Joseph Letter and his bride of half
a year were here when the explosion
happened, having come to town sever
al weeks ago to direct the fight on a
fire in the workings which, after a
months battle, was gotten under con-
troll Friday. night. The first coal hoist
ed out of the shaft in more than six
weeks was brought up Friday, and it
was expected to put the full force of
men to work during the next few
days.
Letter Leads Rescuers.
AS soon as the news of the explo-
sion became known a relief party
headed by Mr.. Letter was organized
and descended into the mine in the
hope of finding some of the men alive.
Joseph Husband, a friend of Letter.
who has been the latters' guest at
Zeigler for the last week, was over
come by gas in attempting to recover
1 the bodies and it was with consider
able difficulty that he was revived.
| Mr.. and Mrs. Letter aided all day
! in the work of rescue, but there was
little to do except to bring up the
! dead, for only two of the 26 men
! caught by the blast still lived when
reached by comrades.
The explosion was remarkable in
that except for the many dead it left
scarcely a trace, and the interior of
the mine shows no sign of damage.
| No Noise of Explosion.
No sound was heard by the resi-
dents of Zeigler to warn of the disas-
ter almost beneath their feet, and
even those at the mouth of the shaft
at first did not realize what had hap
pened deep in the workings.

local newspapers as to what Jesus
