Dawson, ~ NJ, Oct 23.-Two hundred
and twenty-three miners are believed to
be dead tonight beneath tons of fallen
earth, timber. coal and rocks in the cuts
and rooms Of Stag Canon. Mine No. 2. OF
the Stag Canon Fuel Company here.
where an explosion occurred yesterday.
Hundreds of miners. working in shifts
OF fifteen each. are slowly forcing their
way through the rooms and entries, fight
ing against dangers Of gas and fire
which started in an adjoining mine, and
which threatens to reach the space in
which the entombed men were trapped.
At SIS o'clock tonight tie first miner
TO be rescued alive within twelve hours
was taken from the main entry. He was
found unconscious near mule, which
earlier in the evening had been found
alive.
Thirty-eight dead and twenty-three
rescued alive made up the total OF the
days work of recovery The finding OF
the live mule in the mine late to-day en-

mine, in which his fathers estate still
held an interest, in order to learn mining
from practical experience.
j. c. Roberts, chief of the United States
mine rescue bureau in this district, is In
charge Of the rescue work. Mr. Roberts
said II was impossible to tell what occa-
stoned the explosion, but that 1t was OF
such violence as to cause him TO lose nope
for the rescue OF any more victims.
In the mine at the time Of the explo-
sion were 2s4 miners. and that the death
list will reach so great figure is at
tributed to the fact that the great fans
which kept the air circulating within the
mine were rendered useless by the force
of the explosion.
Not until four hours after the explosion
were the fans repaired. Some OF the res
cue parties said tonight IL was their be-
lief that party Of the entombed miners
had reached a room and had sealed 1t In
time to keep the gas from overcoming
them.
The mine was supposed to have beer

cred impossible. Only two days before
