OFFICIAL DEATH LIST
NOW PLACED At 1873
Nearly All Bodies Recovered
From HilCreSt Mine.

Hillcrest, Alta, June %. - The
bodies of nearly all the victims of the
mine disaster have been recovered
and the official death list is now
placed at 1913.
Only forty-four of the 237 miners
entombed by the explosion escaped
with their lives.
Since the explosion rescuers have
been working steadily night and day
bringing from the mine the bodies Of
their companions.
Nearly every house in the little
town contains a casket holding q
dear one who persisted, and Hillcrest
Is sad. .i
The women spend their time wan
dering from the main entrance, where
the bodies are being taken from the
shaft, to the wash house, where they
are laid temporarily, and then to the
hall in town, anxiously seeking a
father, or brother or husband who
was in the mine when the explosion
occurred. e'' "a ! ii.
