SIX MINERS KILLED AT BUTTE.
Were Riding in Cage From 1000 Level
to Surface

Butte, Mont.-Caught in vortex of
whirling steel machine drills in a mine
cage while being hoisted to the surface,
miners met instant death in the shaft
of the Black Rock mine of the Butte
Superior company.
In their anxiety to reach the surfacs
the workmen jumped on the cage upon
which dull steel was being hoisted to
the surface. 1t is presumed that their
crowding pushed the steel shafts from
the box in which they were held, and
they caught in the wall plates on the
side, the ends whirring with terrific
force among the men on the cage, clear
ing the deck of the miners, fairly mine
ing their bodies as the steel bounded
back and forth, and sweeping them into
the stump, 1400 feet below. Charles
Green, station tender, finally was hurled
from the upper deck of the cage 30 the
lower level by the impact when the
brakes were applied and was decapitat
ed, as were all the other miners with the
exception of Lee, whose head was mash
ed to pulp.
The dead:
Charles L. Green, % years old, mar
ried.
Leo Chevrier, 81 years, unmarried.
Patrick O'Neil, 80, unmarried.
Dan Sheehan, 40, unmarried.
James Lee, "a, unmarried.
Daniel Shea, SO, unmarried.
Thomas Denihay, station tender, ad-
vised the miners not to board the cage
while steel was being hoisted, as the
act was in violation of rules, but they
passed by him, as they were anxious to
reach the surface before "tally."
