Official circles indicated, however, q

be included in the accord: Great

Germany was accused by the Lefist

BARNSLEY, York, England, August
WEARY rescue crews returned today
to the grim task of searching for the
bodies of 25 miners who apparently
died in a coal-mine explosion.
The Is we're officially listed as miss
Ing, but chances for their rescue alive
were termed hopeless" after bodies
of 80 fellow workers had been brought
out of the wrecked workings.
Blast Is Mystery.
The ST men on the night shift of
the Wharncliff, Wood, Moor Co. mine
were entombed early yesterday by a
terrific blast which plunged coal and
rock down on them.
Many of their comrades, the rescuers
SAID, were hurled to death against the
jagged walls Others died of gas which
crept through the chambers.
Only one man-Alfred Brown
reached the top alive. His condition
was so se4tcGs doctors and nurses at
Barnsley Hospital labored throughout
the night to preserve the feeble spark
of life
Miners and company officials alike
hUped for Browns recovery so they
might learn-some day-what really
happened below the ground.
At present. only the after effect of
the explosion gave silent evidence of
the disaster.
Most of Bodies Reached.
I'VE reached most Of the bodies"
said DR.. James Henderson, who led one
of the rescue parties.
"A lot of the men had been killed by
the violence of the explosion. Others
were lying about in attitudes that sug-
gested they had been suffocated by
gas"

of women-the miners wiveS-Stood in
hushed silence. Most were red-eyed
from night of weeping.
Messages of sympathy to the be-
reaved women came from King Edward

he be kept informed of the progress of
the rescue work.

Staff Headquarters Bombed by Quad
arrama Rebels.

MADRID. August Z R.-Spain's
Liberal government came within a
hairs breadth Of losing its man of
iron' today when the Socialist leader,
Francisco Largo Caballero, missed by
seconds being blown to bits during a
rebel bombardment in the Guadar-
ramas.
The real ruler behind the political
scene at Madrid, the aging Socialist
generaliSsimo, careless of danger,
shouldered rifle days ago to go to
the front line and study plans for the
campaign to crush the revolt.
A big rebel gun high up on distant
hillside planted a whining shell in
the garden of the villa housing the
general staff.
"We scampered out like cats" said
Caballeros' chief lieutenant, Alvarez
del Vayo, "just in time.
I'VE hardly got clear of the house
when three more shells fell in rapid
succession and demolished it."
Caballero Unperturbed.
Attired in old trousers and a slouch
hat. Caballero remained at the front,
unperturbed by the incident. Crit
ically he walked among the troops
manning the guns for further push
against the rebels, which Is expected
momentarily.
Fresh and decisive victories for 10y
aliSt arms in the Guadarrama and
near the rebel concentration point of
Cordoba in the south were reported.
Conincident with these advices came
an announcement from Gen. Ri
quelme, commanding Popular Front
troops in the Guadarramas, that the
insurgents would be dislodged from
the mountains within a few days and
possibly within a few hours.
A rebel radio broadcast from Sc
vile stating the army of Gen. Emilio
Mola had pushed to the outskirts of
Madrid was without confirmation.
Dispatches directly from the Spanish
capital would appear to deny the ac-
curacy of the rebel report.
Loyalists Occupy Alcolea.
Loyal troops, said advices to Ma
drid, had occupied Alcolea, a little
more than three miles from Cordoba,
and Baena, about 81 miles from that
city.
The government announced an ad-
vance of AZ miles in the mountain
chain which stands like protective
crescent north of the capital. It also
claimed the population of two towns
in Aragon and an important rebel COM
munication center.
The government reiterated the re-
volt would collapse of its own weight
because this uprising Is without the
support of the people or even of the
soldiers themselves"
Leftist troops consolidated their
position at Guadix, about IS miles
from Granada.
Fifty priests were reported to have
taken refuge in the small republic of
Andorra in the Eastern Pyrenees.
At Sastago, which the Leftist troops
took several days ago, 1900 rebels were
reported Jailed in the strategic city
only 81 miles from Zaragoza, principal
northeastern concentration point for
the Fascists.
The fate of Cadiz, southwestern sea-
port, remained in doubt after unofl-
cial reports of its capture by Leftists
were not confirmed.

An attempted uprising at the mill
tary barracks at Alcoy, in Alicante
province, was reported quickly sup
