MORE THAN 100 MINERS KILLED GAS EXPLOSION CATCHES 300
 MEN AND MANY
 ARE DEAD

ROYALTON, H., Oct. 27.-Three hundred men were caught in the Mitchell coal mine by gas explosion this morning and most of them are probably dead About one hundred of them are known to have escaped but thirty five dead bodies have been recovered while all the remainder are still imprisoned in the lower levels. The fate of the imprisoned miners is believed to be sealed and it will be considered extraordinary even if any of them are found alive. The pit mouth now presents a most pathetic spectacle. The families of the entomb- ed men are crowding around suffer- ing the most awful anguish. Were they known surely to be dead the suffering would hardly be so fright ful. The work of reaching them is still proceeding.

DEADLY CONFLICT NEAR YSER

LONDON, Oct. 27-The battle for possession of the road to Calais is still raging with terrific intensity The territory west of the river Yser continues be the of the most deadly conflict Although the flow of the Ger
 man re-nforceents seems be endless they have made no noteworthy progress since reaching the river and the awful hammering goes without cessation The allies have also been reinforced and meeting every assault of the enemy with splendid seadfasness.

 their arrival at the scene of battle may have some effect

ALLIES HOLD GROUND

LONDON, Oct 27.-Snce Saturday no German gain has been recorded The allies have either brought up great renforcements have strongly entrenched themselves that the Germans are compelled to sacrifice man after man to gain a foot of ground.
 The German forward movement has been character ized by even greater prodgay of lives than the march Paris and the losses of the enemy must be terrible. It is deemed certain here now that the Germans intend to hold the lines which they occupy along the whole great front in Belgium and France. They probably so well entrenched that the taking of their positions would be accompanied by losses of the appalling kind as there is hardly any hope that their flank be turned once it succeeds in resting itself the To prevent the occupation of the coast cities the allies will nOw in the opinion of military experts, put forth all their strength
