Eccles, w. Va, April 30.-All hope
for the rescue alive of the 203 miners
entombed by an explosion in mines
Nos. 5 and 6 of the New River Col
lieries company here Tuesday was
abandoned.
Rescuers were unable to force their
way into the burning shafts. Fifty
nine men, all burned severely, were
rescued alive from No. 6 mine and
are receiving medical treatment IN
i~mprovised hospitals. -Four bodies
we're recovered from the same shaft.
1t is said all but IS Of the miners
who entered this shaft have been &C
counted for.
One hundred and ninety Of the en-
tombed men are in shaft No. S, not q

The mine is burning fercely. Gov
eminent, state and volunteer escue
are working desperately to subdue
the flames.
No. 8 mine apparently Is completely
shut of from the surface and escue
hold out little hope OF reaching the
large number of men entombed there
In time.
The explosion occurred In mine No.
5. The two shafts OF this mine were
demolished. IL is believed the explo-
sion travelled through this mine into
No. 6. One shaft OF the latter mine
was wrecked. but the other remains
intact and was the salvation OF ut
least ffty-nine OF the workmen.
The cause OF the explosion has not
been ascertained. and perhaps VIII

afternoon there was a slight explosion
in No. 6. followed by another slightly
greater shock In No. 5 ten minutes

eleven persons. Four of the dead have

Smith, Edward Kessler, mine workers.
Seven of the bodies found were so
badly burned as to be unrecognizable.
The strikers took up positions on
the hill commanding the Forbes camp
before daylight and began pouring in
a murderous fire. The mine guard re-
piled with a machine gun. This
weapon soon became worthless from
heat, and the strikers stormed the
town, carrying everything before them.
Then the strikers reached the mine
buildings In the camp, they set fire to
them, the flames rapidly spreading.
The mine workers and guards fed
in all directions, many OF them being
shot down as they ran.
