MINE DEATH LIST
MOUNTS TO SO
Some of the so Others In
jured May Not Be Able
to Recover
SERIOUSLY BURNED
AND MANNED
State and Local Authorities
at Wilkes-Barre Are
Investigating

Wilkes. Barre. Pa. June Estate and
local authorities to-day were conducting
separate investigations into the explo,.
sion in tunnel of the Delaware and
Hudson Coal company yesterday that
cost the lives of SO men and the injury
of 30 others A large number OF the
injured were seriously burned and
MANNED and it is feared many of them
cannot recover.
There was difference of opinion as
TO the exact cause of the accident, which
occurred while the men were on their
way to work in train of IA mine cars
drawn by an electric motor. In the mid
die OF the train were two ears containing
seven kegs of black powder. According
to survivors the overhead trolley wire
sagged when the train had penetrated
the tunnel about 200 feet and touched
a steel powder keg, forming short cir
cult and setting off the powder OFFICIALS
of the company, after an investigation,
expressed the opinion that steel crow
bar carried by one of the men came in
contact with the wire, forming the short
circuit, which caused the powder to
blow up.
Early reports that the mine laws had
been violated by carrying men and ex-
plosives on the same train were denied
by Seward Button, chief of the state
bureau of mines. Mr.. Button said the
state mine code contained no regulations
on the transportation of explosives. He
