The Ordway new era., 1913-12-26

New Castle, Colo, Dec. 17.-All but
nine of the thirty-sevcn bodies had
been removed from the Vulcan mine
near here early today where every
person in the main workings of the
mine was killed instantly Tuesday by
an explosion Of mine gas.
Nine bodies remain in the upper lift
above the west entry and In this man
ner all the bodies were accounted tor.
One of the rescuers, overcome with
fatigue which followed prolonged use
of the oxygen helmet, fell In chamber
23west. but was taken out alive by his
fellow crewmen who, were following
close behind in the exploration work.
They carried him to the air shaft.
where he was quickly revived and
taken to the surfacs.
Scores of relatives and friends OF
the victims stood in the SHOW at the
entrance watching the rescuers carry
out the bodies, one at a time.
The scene was unlike that of most
mine disasters. in that there was not
the slightest hope that any of those
caught in the terrific blast had sur
vived. The chief desire df those who
waited was that their loved ones
might be recognizable. In majority
of instances, even this hope met dis.
appointment.
Virtually every one of the dead min
ers was born in Colorado.
All were Americans and many of the
unmarried were sons of ranchers and
had lived In the vicinity of New Cas-
tie all their lives.
Sixteen of the men were married.
In casting up the situation 1t was
found that fifteen women were left
widows and thirty-four children made
fatherless by the explosion. One of the
victims became a father at almost the
identical moment that he was hurled
to his death by the blast. This one
was Herbert Woods, twenty-eight
years old
The exact cause of the explosion is
not known definitely but it is the opin.
ion of the mine officials that the ac-
cumulated gas was set off by min
er's candle.
They went to work in the mine
after the union workers had struck.
The Vulcan mine, now owned by the
Rocky Mountain Fuel Company, has
always been known to be dangerous
on account OF the great quantity of gas
that forms In its workings. The men
employed there knew of this danger.
The two men in the upper level who
escaped injury were w. J. Finley and
John Dawson. An air passage in their
part of the mine prevented the gas
from forming there.
Since 1896, when fbrty-nine men
were killed in an accident much sim
liar to that of yesterday, the Vulcan
has been the dread of all workers in
the coal region.

Washington, Dec. 22.-Early action
in the Senate on the proposed consti-
tutional amendment to enfranchise
women Is expected by the senators
who favor the proposal. and woman
suffragist leaders at headquarters of
the National American Women's Suf-
frage Association.
Senator Thomas of Colorado. chair
nan of the committee in charge OF
he proposed amendment, expects to
bring it up as soon as Congress set
ties down to work after the Christ
mas holidays. The senators who fa-
vor it say its earlier consideration has
been prevented only by the pressure
for passage of the administration cur
rency bill.
One other Legislative subject-the
Alaska railroad bill-has first demand
on the Senate's time when it gets
down to business again and it is the
plan to have 1t share attention with
the woman's suffrage amendment.

settling the differences between the

bill was taken up in earnest Saturday
by the Democrats OF the conference
committee of the two houses, headed
by Senator Owen and Representative
Glass.
The Republicans of the committee
did not attend.
No one would predict when an
agreement would be reached, and
Representative Glass flatly declared
that the differences were serious and
NO immediate agreement was looked
for.
The amendments indorsed by the
House were those providing that six
months commercial paper shall be
eligible for re-discount at the federal
banks instead of three months paper
only. as originally provided by the
House bill. and giving national banks
the right to make loans on five-year
farm mortgages up to, one-third of the
time deposits.
