Of Escape from Flames.

Butte, Mont.-At least 200 miners
met death in the Speculator and Gran

Mining company, on June 8, as the
result Of a fire in the mines.
When the fire was discovered Alp
men were In the mines. OF this num-
Der, 222 were rescued from one prop
erty and 60 from the other. Hope OF
finding any of the missing men alive
has been abandoned
The fire started on the 24O0 level
when carbide lamp came in contact
with insulation on an electric cattle.
The Granite Mountain shaft caved in
for considerable distance
The city has gone into mourning.
Flags are at half-mast and all public
slmusements have been suspended be-
cause of the disaster.
Twenty men, rescued alive
from the 240O-foot level of the Specu-
lator mine, owe their lives to the
heroism and resourcefulness of Manus
Duggan, 2O-year-old nipper, or tool
boy. Young Duggan, displaying rare
presence of mind, showed his older
fellow workers how to bulkhead them
selves from the dangerous gas and
preserve their lives until their rescue.
The Granite Mountain shaft, $500
feet deep, was soon roaring chimney,
and with the destruction Of its sup
porting timber's the ground was cav
ing, compelling all work to be directed
from the levels connected with adj
Joining mines.
The Speculator, another shaft about
800 feet distant, connects with the
Granite Mountain on the different
levels
That shaft also was In danger as

Into it and had caved portion. There
was no fire in this shaft, however.
Tons of water was poured into the
Granite Mountain shaft and from
points on connecting levels with adj
ijoinin4 mines as near as it Is possible
to get to the scene of the accident.
1t is believed that the mine damage
will exceed S1,O00,000.
While the morgues were being filled
with bodies, dozen or more men ever
come by gas and rescued from the
workings were revived at the mine It
self by first aid methods and a dozen
more were removed to hospitals for
treatment.
The fire, which started on the 24OO-
foot level communicated quickly to
smoke which poured from the shaft
in great clouds, retarded rescue work.
Miners from adjoining properties, or
,dered up from underground as pre-
caution, went to work as rescuing
gangs aiding national guardsmen, who
had been called to the scene.
