living men among the 119 who were
entombed by an explosion moro than
1000 feet within the mine tunnel yes
terday. Tonight rescue leaders and
company officials were convinced that
the force of the explosion was SO great
that it killed instantly all who were
within its scope and that gas which
followed would have poisoned any pos
sible survivors.
Thfrteen blackened and burned bodies
have been brought out. and helmet
crews report that other bodies of dead
miners had been passed as they hurried
on in their search for the living.
According to. James Dalrymple, state
mine inspector. there was no fire with

AS to the cause of the explosion, he
said:
I'VE cannot tell until we reach the
initial point. Of the explosion. We are
working the north side OF the air
course and coming back on the south
searching every entry in which men
were working"
First reports that the mine was afire
and that there had been no explosion
are explained by mine officials, as due
to the fact that no shock as from an
explosion was felt and that considera-

from the explosion, poured from the
