J J Avondale la situated in tbe bosom of the beautiful and fertile Wyoming j-Val loy, near the Susquehanna', and five miles from Wllkesbarrei and in the distance, on each side, can be seen ranges of bi uo tinted mountains, lined with massive for est trees., ,' . , - I APPEARANCE OF, THE MINING- REGION. In the slopes of' the -mountain' ranges on., the Lackawanna and Bloomaburg Railroad,' at every fow-huudred yards, is to bo seen a colossal coalrbfeaker, and far up on the mountain side, i he engine house over the shalt can be distinguished. At the foot of each breaker is a huge piie of coal dust and slate, frequently extending mauy hundred feet and rising to a,height generally of foi ty to fifty feet. These mines extend for hundreds of feet underground in eVory although they are ; apparently no evidences of the fact, yet several hundred men are engaged in each. One of the largest and deepest mines in tho valley was one here at Avondale, and the greatest consternation filled the whole Lehigh region when news of the terrible disaster was received. THE AVONPALB MINE. Thin mine was contracted in ISO 7, un der th’e superintendence of Air.- J. C. Phelps, of. Wjlkesbarre, and the first en trance effected was a horizontal tunnel, which was dug neariy.-lOOOfeet, in hopes of striking a vein, but without result. A perpendicular shaft was (hen sunk,do a distance of 237 feet, at.a cost of $2OOO per yard, and at this depth tho great vein was struck,: The mine consists of two great gangways; styled tbe east and west planes. The east plane extends SOO feet, and the west -plane 1200 feet. Besides these (here,-were numerous chambers which can only be readied by very cir cuitous passages. Parallel with each gangway, is an air passage, and at inter vals of 60 feet connections are made with the main gangway. Two hundred feet from the shaft , is a furnace which, unfortunately, was used for keeping up the draft for ventilating the mine, instead of a fan, which is most common. Over the mouth of tho shaft was built the engine-room," where ihe force was applied for raising the coal which had been mined. This was a large affair, several stories in height, and con nected with a large breaker, two hundred feet long and eighty feet wide, and two stories high THE DISASTER. . On Monday morning last, when ns is estimated, one hundred and eight men and boys were in t e mine, a young mam named titeele was being lowered in a bucket with hay and feed for the horses,- when the hay suddenly took fire, with out his knowing the cause.- He instant ly pulled the alarm rope, but in an in stant almost a'column, of flame and smoke shot up the, shaft, and in less time 1 than it takes to write it tho ougine room and breaker were on Are. All attempt to-qx tlughlsbdt were, in vain, and in an hour nothing was ieft but a -mass of -gnarled twisted machinery, charred timber and burning coal, of which latter there'were' two hundred tons in the; breaker await ing shipmeut. This wiiicontinue to burn for a week. - ■■■",'•■ . THE GREATEST EXCITEMENT Now prevailed, and the miners from the adjoining collieries hastened to the spot, but a g anee told them that no help could reach,the doomed men below. THE SHAFT WAS THE ONLY AVENUE OF -. ... ESCAPE From below, aud the debris of the burn'- ed breakers had fallen into this, and emitted volumes of smoke, hot air aud steam. . Despatches were,sent to the neighbor ing towns, giving notice of the awfdl dis aster, and the Nayang Fire Company, of Scranton ; Goodwill Engine, of VVillffes barre, aud Luzerne Engine', of Kingston, were sent to the spot and immediately went Into service. Streams of water were directed down the burning shaft, and af ter some hours ot labor it was thought the lire was extinguished. A HEART-RENDING SPECTACLE. By this time the families and friends of those known to be in the mine hadar rived upon the ground, and the spectacle was heart-rending. Women leading little children,younggirlsand boys, wringing their bands, weeping and indulging in piteous exclamations, made a sight that ;thoso who witnessed It'never wish to see again. By half past five- o’clock the lire was out and the shaft bad cooled to allow a . descent to bo ' A DOO AND A LAMP. About six o’clock,, were lowered In a bucket,' and immediately pulled up, when the lamp .was found to bo .out,'and the - dog still alive, but showiug signs of asphyxia. A-block'and tackle was now hastily but firmly' rigged, and a man volunteered to go*down; JJe 1 was* lower ed about half-way, when,the. alarm-rope was jerked, and he waa excitedly pulled up. He reported the, shaft choked up with the cinders and debris of the fire. Two men soon afterwards volunteered to go do .vu, and each one putting a foot in a little bucket, and haying a cope’ around his body, they were lowered down. Forsomo time no sign was heard then a sound as of a fall, and the excite ment and anxiety became. intense*' It was feared- they had been overcome' by ■the gas,'when the.welcome signal was heard to pull up, and they weie soon at the mouth of the shaft. * * LYING ON THE GROUND . GASPING FOB BREATH. The. air around them was very poiso nous. and they pulled the rone, leaving the others ,to their fate. When they reached the surface they were nearly in sensible, and were not recovered for seve ral hours. No further attempt was made to enter the mine until morning, and then David H. Davis, Benjamin Jones, Thomas L. Williams, and John VV. , and Isaac Thomas cautiously descended, and re covering the bodies of Williams and Jones sent them up, A call waa now made for volunteers, to make an effort to ascertain the fate of the men who had been working in the mine, and to clear the rubbish from the shaft, and instantly forty-live noble mi ners stepped out. Others were willing, bnt this, was a enough.. These eieotea George Morgan as foreman, and Thomas E. Davis and John H. Powell as his as sistants. , ~. FUTILE ATTEMPTS TO ENTER THE Julne. At a quarter of eight o’clock another party went down, and after remaining a few minutes Evan Morris, who had been down on the previous trip, was overcome by the fire-damp, and tl;e party returned. At nine o'clock four men mndeanotber attempt to bsuetrate the body-of the niine,.bnt were, unsuccessful. At half pust nine o’clock another party of four weut’down and fixed the hoes so 1 that the water could be forced upon the' burning furuace. The .steam' .engines were then set tp work, and after an hour’s woHt, the fire was'extinguished. The party whd;wonf dowu this time brought baikW.'J. Price, ouoof their number, In a very exhausted condition. At twelve o'clock Henry Atherili;Samuel Morgan, David S. Jones unci John Williams went' down, and-after a. half hour returned nearly all of them In an exhausted con dition. Jones was so nearly gone that it required earnest endeavors to* save his life. The party reported that the fire in the furnace had rekindled; and-that the hose had becpme disarranged. They then took buckets and .threw considerable water on the fire until tho accumulation of gas and.steam obliged them to return. DISCOVERY OF THE'FIRET ROPIES. ' About two o’clock this .morn)ng, a de scent was made Into the mine again, and the miners of tho party went as far as tho stable, whore they found the llvla and discolored bodies of Palmer Steele, a stable boss, and Dennison'Slocum, a I driver, which were sent up to the top of I the shaft, where an indescribable scene took place among their weeping friends and relatives* Other parties were now sent down, and they penetrated into the western plane; and in a chamber found sixty-seven bodies, among them two hoys, who were clasped in each others antis, alongside their father. ft Is.evident, from all those men.being filled together, that the unfortunate vic tims huvt become aware of their danger, and fled to this part of the mine, -An effort had been made to form n barricade, .for the men had taken off their hats and jackets, and piled theni across the gully. On the outer side of this barricade three bodies were found, in sUch a position as .to. the belief that the gas had pene trated through the barricade, and in their despair these men had broken through it aud\w ere attempting' to escape when I, overcome* .. * . * . - I Vending up THE-PEAD. All dnly the' bodies wore slowly but surely brought out. The recovery of the dead men is attended with great danger, as the,chamber in which they lay is 1200 feet from tlie mouth of the shaft, and they are obliged to. dash along this distance, seize a body and hurry to the mouth of Hughs, ‘ tli<T boss minor, wus ,ho abaft. found sitti folded,-ami with resigi found lyinj ■g beside a car with his arms ho had apparently met death ation. .The other bodies were ; fn the small mine cars. .FINING.THE REMAINS. lumber of collius are on the o which the bodies of the dead is soon as Identified.

After the close of my letter of yester day operations in the mine were prose cuted with great energy, and by a few minutes-of ten o’clock the last of tho dead in the mine, so far as found, had been lemoved. ‘A largo number of the wives and children of those known to be still in the shaft, remained on the ground, pnxioqsiy for the identification of corpse ns it was brought to the surface, and when it became apparent to' them 1 that their relatives were yet among the missing; ■ A TERRIBLE SCENE'I NSUED. ...Some rff the women frantic allyattcmp ■ted to break through the ropes, and it re quired the utmost exertions on the part of the police, to restrain them. They finally wqnt to some of the houses near, by, aucptlieir heartrending wailings an d cries could be distinctly board at the im mediate scene of the disaster, aipl moved than one rough' and hardy miner fflrnhstdo-teary.. , !i£n OTH Eit R ECO NNOITJO li I NO PARTY. It wa£ now proposed to- send a recon noiteringexpfdition into those recesses of the mine that had not as yet been ex plored.' This, however, was an extremely perilous undertaking,-as the flue damp and sulphurous gases were known to have accumulated very . thick, as it was to be expected that the men would be' very much exuusted, aud that some of them would need medical attention immedi ately upon reaching the surface. A' physi cian was searched for, but to llicsurpriae. of ail, not one was on the ground. - This was partly to be accounted for by. the" fuct'rhat tue stupidity of the o'Jicia’s ren dered it very inconvenient for persons to stay upon the ground. ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO DESCEND THE SHAFT. Tbe tears and entreaties of the widows finally induced a party of miners to make the perilous attempt aud shortly after they descended Dr. Klcerd, of Plymouth, arrived on the ground. After being in the mine for nearly half an hour th« ex plorers returned, several* of them much ■exhausted, and reported that they had • penetrated into five chambers but could ' tHacover nb bodies; • In the main gang way they found an abattis, which had been erected by the unfortunate men, and after some time, managed to tear it down. They reported the damp as very heavy ; so much so that several of the party were -overcome and the rest so much affected that they were obliged to retre.it. The telegraph operator, at ten o’clock, became "exhausted aud returned to Scranton. THE.DISCOVERY OF THE DEAD. To resume the history of the disaster: ..—About eleven P. M. another parly was sent down, as several other physicians ,had arrived, and in about fifteen minutes they returned and reported finding, near the head ofa plane, two deadiuen and .the body of a mule. Decomposition was .beginning to set in, and the bodies emit ted a very bad odor. A party went down in a few minutes, and sent up the two bo ties found. They then Wont bn fur ther aud stumbled over another corpse ; a little distance on two more were found ; then three, then four, and finally six in a group. Operations were immediately commenced to send up these victims, aud as each cue was-received aud-identified, the lamentations of their relatives were piteous to witness. In tfievest plane near the face, an uu finished abattia was found, and near it "two additional corpses. ■ These then had 'evidently been at work on,the abattia in connection with others, and the gang finding the gas coming too thick Upon them had retreated, and those who were found had been overcome. Other bodies were found at intervals titering the night' in diflerout parts, oi the mine, and tiro work of bringing them up was curried on unremittingly.. Refreshments were on the ground, and were distributed to all within the lines. . GREAT INFLUX OP VISITORS, ' This being the day set apart for tlie funerals of those who were found yester day, it was observed by an almost univer sal suspension of business through this region, so far asheard from, ,> ' * AID FOR TIIE SURVIVORS; . The ahrioucoments of the contributions received during yesterday were received with great satisfaction by the inhabit? nts of this locality, and will do much to re lieve the families of-tbo deceased•; ’ DESTITUTE CONDITION OF, T 1110 WIDOWS .M > and OIfTITANS; This left the miners in a most destitute condition, and now the families of the Avondale men are really in a deplorable state". All ’were Jivingon credit, and now that their dependence for a livelihood ia cut of!, the storekeepers will have to re fuse them supplies unless paid for when obtained.' Many of the widows cannot, tell where their provisions oven for to morrow will come from. • INDIVIDUAL CASES DF DISTRESS ‘ Mrs. Evans, who loses a father,.bro' hor and three out of four children by the ca lamity, is an example of the rest. Her bereavement and distress Is so great,how ever, at present, that a true statement of her affairs cannot be had. In one of the Avondale houses ,which we visited to-night, the widow was lying sobbing upon aatmw pallet, while her too small children ituconsclous of the severi ty of their loss, were sitting awestruck in the corner of the room. £fo provisions were in the hoUaei but her irionds oil learning of the fact, contributed enough to keep tbo family until.to morrow after-’ noon. * . another search fob the dead. . To-morrow morning gangs.of workmen wiirbe sent down the shaft to remove the rubbish ami clean out tho dirt through tbe’miiio.' A donkey eng no will also he rigged ,to pump out .the water; then, If any bottles pro c'onoealod under the de bris they’will bo found. OPINIONS AS TO THE CAUSE OF THE DIS- ASTER. Several experts have advanced an opin ion to-night us to tho cause of the disks-' ter, which has rapidly spread and Is now a subject of conversation among a great many persons,. They deny Hie first report that the lire originated from the furnace, but state that a spark fell from the lamp of Steele as he descended the abaft, and set fire to tho hay in his bucket. Specu lation upon this theory at present is use less us the evidence at tho Inquest on Sat urday will probably positively determine (he cause. THE FATAL BKE*AICE.R OVER THE SHAFT. All parties, however, concede tho great peril of building tho breaker over the shaft, and also that iii any case a furnace in a mine instead of a fan, isdangerou in the extreme. Nearly, every colliery where there is a shaft,' and has the break er,over the shaft, a repetition of the Av ondale accident Is'liable at any moment. BUBIAXi OF THE VICTIMS. To-morrow will beasadday for Wjlkes harre, as eight of the victims win be bur ied there. Their funeral will bo attended with great solemnity. As this is written nearly all the crowd has left the ground, and operations are suspended. , , . . Sept. 10. • Nothing of interest occurred after the -last body was found yesterday aTTeruoou, and at six o'clock it was announced that operutious would be suspended until 9 o’clock this morning.. The mine was then placed in charge of tho miners, and so remaiuecrall night. AN.EXPLORING PARTY. About tea o’clock to day Thomas J. Philips, Superintendaufc, of the Jersey mine took down a party of miners, who thoroughly explored the mine to arrauge measures for ventilation. Two donkey engines were sent down, and will soon be in operation and relieve tho mine of the water which has accumulated in large quantities, sinco’the accident. A SAD SPECTACLE. The funerals of theToliowing men took place to-day at Wilkabarre :-Danlel Pry or, Dennis Guyton, James Murray; James Harkins,. iohn Maker, Michael. Daley, James Wollox and John Grouty. -SUSPENSION OP BUSINESS IN WILKSBARRB. Business was universally supended In Wilksbarro, even, the bar.rooms being closed. Many private buildings were craped, and as,the funerals,passed along attended by-large numbers. of persons, the various bells tolled mournfully. Other fnnerais are taking place In different lo calities, and after to-day nothing but the aad recollections will remain to keep alive the excitement. ,THE CONTRIBUTIONS.
