TWENTY-THREE
BURIED IN MINE
NO HOPE FOR RESCUE ENTER
TANNED BY SEARCHING
PARTY.
ALL ARE AMERICANS
THE BODY OF ONE MAN is
FOUND-PROGRESS is VERY
SLOW.

Elk Garden, w Va.-Twenty-three
miners are entombed in OFT mine No.
of the Davis Coal & Coke Company
here, as the result of an explosion.
Little hope is entertained for the
rescue of any alive, because tons OF
debris impede the progress of res
cuers.
1t is not known whether the explo-
sion was caused by dust or gas. Of
ficials of the company say they have
never known their mines to be gas
eous.
Superintendent Robert Grant or
ganized a rescue corps of the miners
off duty, and these attempted to en-
ter the mine.
The rescue party had not advanced
far in the workings before it was
found it would take several days to
dig through the heaps of roof coal
and slate, loosened by the explosion.
1t then was decided to effect an en-
trance nearer the probable point of
the explosion by cutting through the
wall of an adjoining mine.
After penetrating about mile down
the main entry, the rescuers found the
body of man, not identified 1t had
been crushed beneath a fall of slate
as he was running out of the mine.
Af ic-
heartened the rescuers, who are posi-
tive that none of the others is alive.
Several yards beyond the passage
was completely blocked by the col
this fall it is believed the bodies of
the miners lay. Gas is heavy in the
main entry and in the workings not
totally blocked, and the rescuers have
to work in short shifts.
Havoc wrought in the mine would
indicate that the explosion was ter
rifle. For square mile or more the
slate and coal was split and props
were splintered, letting the roof fall
in in large sections.
In contrast to the, usual mine ex-
plosions, the victims in this case with
one exception are Americans. The
mine usually employs 200 men on the
day shift and about the same number
at night. A temporary suspension OF
work required fewer men in the mines
else the casualty list might have been
greater.

Railroad Loses Millions.

Portland, Ore.-Federal District
Judge Charles E. Wolverton decided
that the Southern Pacific and the Ore
gon & California railway companies
must forfeit to the United States
about 2,400,000 acres of land which is
valued at $40,000,000 to $75,000,000.
Interpreting the act of Congress
granting the land as an aid to rail
way construction, the court held that
Congress intended this land should be
sold to bona fide settlers in tracts not
greater than 100 acres to one individ-
ual and at price not exceeding $3.50
an acre. Every contention raised by
the railway company has been defeat
ed in its fight with the government.
If this decision be sustained by the
United States Supreme Court the land
will revert to the government.
