gave his life in an effort to save miners

Delagua on Tuesday, was recovered to-
day. Lewis and rescue party were en-
tombed as they rushed into the mine.
All but four bodies are now recov-
cred and the list of dead remains at 10.
It is feared that John Mcleod, clerk of
the mine, who was injured by rocks fly
ing from the main slope, will die.
The funerals of seven Montenegrin
victims of the explosion were held to-
day after John Palandech, Servia n
editor of Chicago, had withdrawn his
objections. Palandech. who claimed to
be the personal representative of Prince
Nicholas of Montenegro. was satisfied
with the death certificates stating that
the victims lost their lives as result
of the explosion in the mine. He an
nounced. however, that he would inves-
tigate with a view to learning if the
explosion was the result of careless
ness.
Three hundred Montenegrins marched,
two by two, behind the hearses contain

THE record is voluminous. The case
