A MINE HORROR
At BIRMINGHAM;
MANY ENTOMBED
BETWEEN TttfRTW.FWE: AND FOR.
TY MEN LOCKED IN MINE
WHICH is NOW ON FIRE
The Accident Was Caused, II Is Be-
lieved, by an ExpIosion-The Shaft
Is Three Hundred Feet Deep and
Is Very Massive.

Birmingham, Ala, April 2l.-At 9
O'Clock this morning the Mulga mine
was closed up fer fear of fire.
Between thirty-fve and forty men,
all except fifteen of them being he
sroes, are entombed.
Little hope is expressed that any nf
the forty miners entombed in the Mul.
ga mine of Birmingham Coal and Iron
Company, the result of an explosion al
8 o'clock last night, would be rescued
alive.
When it was learned it would be i'm
possible to gain entrance to the mine
through the shaft because the cages
were sprung in passage, entrance was
sealed to prevent the spread of the
fire.
Shortly after midnight the hospital
car of the Tennessee Company was
rIshed to the scene, equipped with
helmets and other necessary parapher.
MALTA for entering th" gaseous mine.
Ambulances were also sent from
Ensley and Birmingham to the scene
twelve miles northwest of Birming
ham. Only list CT miners at work at
the time of the explosion was held by
the foreman. who is also among the
entombed men.
1t is believed there are fifteen white
men and fifteen or twenty negroes.
The mine was in operation for two
years. The shaft is three hundred
and fifty feet deep, and the fact that
the flames shot from the mouth of the
shaft tc height CT a hundred feet,
leads tc the belief that the explosion
occurred near tae bottom Of the main
shaft.

New York, April 21.--RicAard Gro

The people are getting tired OF a
Republican administration. They have

see that Democratic rule would be far
better.
This is the turning point. You
will soon see the Republican leaders
falling one by one, until Democracy
will again be in the saddle"

LOCAL PEOPLE
NOT COOPERATING
IN CENSUS WORK
MANY HAVE REFUSED 70 REPLY
TO QUESTIONS OF ENUM-
ORATORS.
Most of the Trouble Has Been Exper-
fenced Among the Ladies-Those
Who Refuse to Reply to Questions
Subject to $500 Fine.

While Brunswicii'S census enumer-
;ators are making very good headway
III their work of counting Branswick's
poulation, still they are daily enccun-
terlng more or less difficulty in some
quarters and are not receiving the
cooperation that they should receive
and which had been expected.
1t was realized when the
enumerators started out on their work
that the task was a very tedious one,
and for this reason, they expected the
cooperation Of the people of the city
generally AS only two weeks is al
lowed the enumenators in this city to
complete their work. they have en-
deavored to progress as rapidly as
possible, but it now appears that it
will almost be impossible for all of
them to finish in the required time
In conversation with News repre-
sentative yesterday, one of the enum-
orators stated that he was eXperienc-
ing considerable trouble in his dis
trict, and what exists in one section
Of the city is probably true in the
others. This enumerator stated thac
while he expected to find many peo-
pie absent When he called, which
would necessitate a return visit, he
p did not think that any resident of
Brunswick would fiatly refuse to give
the required information, "but during
the first week" he continued, quite
a number of people, mostly ladies,
have refused to reply to- the ques-
tions. Some Of them made the state
ment that they were too busy to an.
swer the long string of questions,
Others told the servants to announce
that they were net at home and other
similar excuses have been made.
There is nothing for us to do bat re-
polt the conditions to Supervisor Per
ham at Waycross, and this am going
to do"
The enumeration refused to divulge
the names of those who had refused
to reply to the questions, but he stat
the ladies that most of the trouble
was being experienced.
While these people may not be
aware of the fact, it is a violation of
the national law to refuse to reply to
questions asked by a census enumer-
ator, and any one violating the law
is subject to a fine of $100
1t is to be regretted that the local
enumerators are meeting with any
difficulty whatever, and it is to be hop
ed that in future the people Of the
city will not only reply to the ques-
tions, but will receive the enumer
ators with that courtesy which is due
them.

BRIDGE Utter
THAT REHEARING

THE NEAR FUTURE.
Col. kinsman Takes Up the Matter

P May Be Given Permission to
Build Across the Altamahs.

With veiW of securing a new hear
ing in the matter of a bride across
the Altamaha river, which will admit
the Georgia Coast and Piedmont rail-
road to Brunswick, it is understood
that Col. Kingman, of Savannah, the
engineer in charge of this district, has
taken the matter up with the war de-
partment at Washington, and the final
result, it is believed, will be the is.
suance of an order calling for a re.
hearing of the matter
1t will be remembered that the gov
eminent refused to give the road per-
mission to construct this trestle un-
less the spans were 100 zee whicn
practically upset all plans which had
been perfected for the extension of
the road to Brunswick. Since that
time there has been strong effort
on the part of the people of Bruins
wick as well as thoses int ereStel In
the railroad, to have the government
re open the matter. Resolutions nave
been passed by all the commercial
bodies and by city council and copies
Of them have been forwarded to Col.
Kingman at Savannah and to the navy
department, and it is now stated that
the engineer has interested himself
in the matter and will endeavor to
again hear arguments. 1t is believed
that the government will be willing
to agree to a bridge with spans of
less than 100 feet, and the railroad,
and Glynn and Mcintosh counties are
ready to call bond elections to secure
the money with which to construct the
big trestle.
