FIVE MINERS
LOSE LIVES In
RESCUE WORK
THREE OTHERS BATTLE FOR
Ives SUFFERING FROM Eff
FECTS OF DEADLY GAS FOL-
LOWING EXPLOSION
lBy A..oeiatea Pre.sl

NELSON CITY, KY, Feb. IT,
Five miners made the supreme
sacrifice here yesterday when they
attempted to rescue two other
miners, who were killed by a pre-
mature explosion of ''shot" at the
coal mines of the Nelson Greek Coal
Company, here. Two of them,
Archie Huter and Carl Brandon,
were sons of the first two victims.
Three others are today battling
for their lives suffering from eff
fects of deadly gas that has filled
the mines after the explosion.
The first explosion occurred as
the members of the day shift were
leaving the mines. Hearing the ex-
plosion Huter and Brandon, accom-
panied by Tom Richardson, Gabe
Woodruff, and Mathew King, rush
ed 30 their rescue. The second ex-
plosion then occurred, killing them.
Accumulated coal dust from the
"windy shot" caused this explosion.
Other miners then, undaunted by
the fate of Huter and his companions
quickly descended into the mine,
which rapidly filled with gas. An
other of Huter's sons, Leonard,
Leonard Richardson, son of Tom,
and Cecil Fulkerson, mine foreman,
were severely gassed, and little hope
is held for their lives.
The explosions were not heard on
the surface, but the miners felt a
slight jar which they knew could be
caused by nothing but an unusual
explosion. Later a puff of smoke
found its way out of the shaft, Civ
ing the only visible signs of the dis
aster below.
Physicians, called to the scene en-
countered trouble, muddy roads
making the mines inaccessible. They
left their cars two miles from the
scene and ploughed through the mud
to the mine, where they made heroic
efforts to save the lives of the gassed
victims.
) Officials stated. little damage was
done to the mine and operations
will be resumed after the funerals
of the victims.
