Hero Of Disaster Al Butte Among
 The Missing

BUTTE. Mont. June 12.-With the recovery today of thirty-eight bodies from the workings of the north Butte mining properties which caught fire last Friday, the total list of known dead stood to- night at 140. of which 69 have been identified. Twenty-two miners are still unaccounted for and estimates of officials fixed the probable loss of life at 162.
 Only a faint hope is entertained that any of the entombed miners still are alive. Manus Duggan. the young miner who directed the con struction of a bulkhead in the g. 400 level of the Speculator mine shaft and thereby saved the lives of more than score of his trapped companions, is among the missing and is supposed to have perished. although rescuing paries hold to the hope that he may have reached an avenue of escape not yet ex- plored by the helmet men.
 Citizens of Missoula tonight sent an entire railroad car filled with flowers for the funerals of the mine victims. Thirty-three fthe un- victims. Thirty-three of the un afternoon.
