Tha 111 fated miners were residents of Sha
tnoktn and Springfield, i small village
adjoining the borough,
- The burning oil set fire to the roof of the
mine, and the efforts of the miners to ex
tinguish the flames were unavailing owing
to the Inadequate supply of water. An
airway shaft connects the No. 10 vein with
the red ash vein, which is situated al-
rerttv nvrr tha former one.

cuers was lowered, and when the cage
stopped ty the red tun vein, w leet from
the surface, the men found the tunnel
filled with smoke which had come up from
the lower level. A couple of rescuers
Jumped off the cage and tried to walk
through the smoke, which grew denser
very minute. A few dead mules were
stumbled over, and the men reluctantly
retreated and returned to the surface,
aware that if anyone was in the tunnel he
could not escape, as there were no exits at
this particular side or tbe lilt.
The cage was again lowered and & force
of men started in to explore the tunnel. It
was risky work, as a sulphur explosion
was Imminent. With cheery words to
each other they pressed forward and finally
reached two corpses wrapped In each
other's arms. They were the bodies of the
lirennan brothers. One dozen yards fur
ther on lay John Ryan. He was dead.
Three feet away were the remains of
Bhupls and G inter. The grewaome search
continued until every part of the vein had
been explored, ten dead men being the to
tal find. The mine la still on fire.

iately after the blast went off a terrible
roar was heard and an Immense body of

flood and undoubtedly perished.
It has been definitely ascertained that
three men are in the mine. They are
Thomas Hudson, W. L. Trembath and
Richard Will him. The latter is dead be
yond a doubt. There Is a faint possibility
that tbe other two may be rescued alive.
Hazleton, Pa., April ft. The chambers
worked by the missing miners, Williams,
Trembath and Hudson, were examined
yesterday afternoon by the rescurers, but
no trace of the men was found. The hope
