Drakesboro. KY, Feb. 2.-Ten men
are known to be dead and seventeen
others are missing, presumed to be
penned up in entries by falls of slate.
as a result of a gas explosion in the
Browder mine, ~ and one-half miles
from Drakesboro.
Eight of the bodies have been re-
covered, all Of them horribly mutt
lated. Four of the dead have been
identified. One man was rescued
alive, but is so badly burned that his
recovery is doubtful.
Because of the accumulation of
gases in the entry where the explo-
sion occurred, 10 feet beneath the
surface and 700 feet back from the
mine shaft. it was impossible t begin
active rescue work until six hours
after the disaster.
1t Is believed that the explosion was
caused by a track repalrer going into
an abandoned room with an uncov-
cred lamp. as the is shattered
almost to atoms and the body of the
repairer Is nowhere to be seen.

DISASTER IN Mine
Explosion Kills -Four Score in
Colorado COIIiary,
ONLY ONE ESCAPES DEATH
CareIessness Alleged to Have
Caused Accident.

PrimerO, Colo, Feb, 2.-The disaster
in the main mine of the Colorado Fuel
and Iron company, which claimed he
lives Of at least seventy.nine men, was
caused by an explosion OF fire damp,
according to a survivor OF the catastro.
phe on Jan. %, 1907, in the same mine,
in which twenty-four lives were lost.
The same authority holds that the
explosion was caused by the ignition
OF gas from a flames originated prob
ably through carelessness of some
miner in direct violation of mine rules,
either through the cramping of a cap
for a fuse, or the lighting Of a match

ings.
Leonardo Virgen, a Mexican and the
only surviving miner, who is supposed
to have been working within a com.
paratively short distance of the point
where the explosion originated, is un-
able to give a clear statement of what
actually occurred.
Immediately following the report a
column OF dust and smoke poured out
Of the main entrance. Large pieces Of
timber were hurled more than 100 feet
and so terrific was their force that a
string of cars in the mines mouth was
blown off the track. The huge ven.
tilating fans were at once put in op.
Grafton and rescue parties were forced
into the gas filed workings.
Gavin Blocks the Entrance.
A huge cave-in at the mouth of the
main slope blocked entrance at that
point, but the rescuers followed the
main ventilating shaft for several hun
dred yards, gaining entrance to the
main slope through a crosscut.
When the relief party reached entry
AT, on the main slope, they found the
first evidence OF the destruction
wrought. Here probably a dozen
bodies were encountered, but the res
cuers pushed on in the hope Of finding
signs of life. A little further on, near
the mouth of entry A-8, the party
came across Leonardo Virgen. As IL
waking from a deep sleep Virgen
opened his eyes and said:
"Please, may | go home now?"
Virgen has sufficiently recovered to
Join the watchers around the main en-
trance. The situation In the workings
continues unchanged. Relief work is
being pushed by frequent changes of
shifts, the rescuing party having
