NO HOPE FOR THEM
Concluded from Page L
others held consultation at 1 o'clock
last night and figured that the disturb
ance will reach the abandoned part of
the mine sometime today. Thus may
not, however, affect the work of rescue.
The only danger lies in the rns being
forced into the part of the mine where
the rescuers utv at work, tut i.n this
point ihue in charge huve nothing to
say. That something or mis ori is
feared Is indicated by the fact that when
nightfall came last evening Incandes
cent lights were substituted for torches
about the head of the shaft and In the
engine r'om. and orders were given
that no smoking, lighting of matches or
carrying of linked lumps were to be al
lowed about the opening or the engine
room. One man was specially em
ployed to see that tnis oraer was oik-jtu
and nil nl'iht long he did nothing but
patr.il the immediate vicinity of the
shaft to tee that the order was enforced.
DANGER OP A FLOOD.
The danger of the mine being flooded
while not immediate Is nevertheless
feared. Fissures In the surface have
apieared along the Lehigh alley
tracks and In close proximity to the
Junction of the two rivers but as yet
no water Is entering through them.
Mine Inspector McDonald denies that
there Is anything to be feared from
water getting through from the surface
but the arrival of an Immmse pump at
the head of the shaft at S o'clock in
the afternoon hud a tendency to make
the Inspector's statement appear to be
n attempt at quelling the fears of tho
men. '
As the entombed men are supposedly
it the very bottom of the mine basin it
Is quite evident that the place where
they -were caught Is even now under
water as It Is nn extremely wet mine
and not u pump Is at work, the one
that was in use having been discon
nected from the pipes before the fall,
with the Intention of having it removed
out of danger.
Xo one but the distracted relatives.
wlihse hopes have been buoyed up with
charitably colored reports of the situa
tion anil thu progress of the rescue
work entertain any hopes of any of the
men being recovered alive. There Is a
posslbllty that they may be reached In
a day or so and there is a probability
that they will never be brought out.
This Is the terrible situation and no one
can do anything more than make con
jectures as to what time will tell.
THE WORK OF RESCUE.
Only the .Most Coin pel cut .Men Are
Selected.
A regular system has now been
adopted lit the detailing of the men.
As fur as Is possible the miners who
have already been engaged In the work
are secured permanently and divided
into regular shifts. One goes on at 7
o'clock In the morning, another at 3
o'clock In the afternoon and the third
at 11 o'clock at night. About fifty men
constitute each shift. Kaeh shift is in
charge of a mine foreman from one oT
the adjacent collieries-', and as a rule the
men In his squad are for the most part
employes of his ow n mine.
Only English speaking miners are al
lowed to' go In. but exceptions are made
in the cases of Poles, Hungarians and
the like, who are known to be compe
tent miners und who can understand
English well. Yesterday morning
theie was tin objection raised to for
eigners by the English speaking miners
on the ground that the risk was height
ened by having men around who could
not readily understand orders. The
squad was silted and many of the for
eign element were laid off.
Mine foremen from the near by col
lieries are bringing their best men with
them and there is no fear of there be:
lng a lack- of experienced men. Super
intendent Will Hichards, of the Lehigh
and Wllkes-Harre Coal company, came
on the scene at 7 o'clock In tho morning
with twelve of his most experienced
men and Joined the force of volunteers.
Foremen and miners from Mt. Lookout,
Hahylon, Avoca and Langcllffe col
lieries, who formed the 11 o'clock shift
Monday night, volunteered again last
night and went on at that hour.
Among the prominent coal men who
assisted during the day were nichard
Malnwaring. of the Mt. Lookout col
liery: tieneral Superintendent' Lowe. In
side Superintendent Morgan Morgans
and General Mining Engineer AVilllam
IMchards. of the Lehigh and Wilkea
Bane Coal and Navigation company;
Superintendent George B. Smith, Gen
eral Mine Superintendent Alex Bryden
and Consulting Superintendent Andrew
Hryden, of the Pennsylvania Coal com
pany; Superintendent W. G. Thomas, of
the Lallin Coal company; Benjamin
Harding, foreman at No. u colliery of
the Pennsylvania Coal company: ex-Inspector
Boderlck, Inspector McDonald,
Inspector Blewltt. Mine Foreman Mc
Cnbe, Manager Joseph Cake, of the
Clear Spring colliery? vv. D. Owens, of
the Lehigh Valley; William Abbott, of
the Pennsylvania Coal company: D. W.
Kvans. of the Stevens Coal company; S.
B. BennetL. of the Butler Coal com
pany. LIST OF KNOWN VICTIMS.
Compiled Willi Much fare but Is Xot
Yet Complete.
The list of victims Is still Incomplete,
but the appended one Is thought to con
tain the names of all rhe English-speak-ingmen
and Lithuanians. The names
of the latter were secured by John Lep
pert, who Is a leader among that race,
and who made a tour of the Lithuanian
houEes for that purpose. How many
Polanders, Hungarians and Slavs are
among the victims is not known but It
is thought there are somewhere in the
neighborhood of twenty. .
The apneiaVd list shows that as far
as knowrt the calamity has made 29
widows and orphans. These numbers
will be Increased when the identity of
the otner victims is established.

KNEW THEY WERE IN DANGER.
Interview with Hduiird Hughes, One
. ol lhe Mm Who Quit.
Thnt the men were fully alive to the
danger they were running In remaining
In the mine Is now clearly established
and It Is also un undoubted fact that
a enve-in was anticipated by the bosses.
During the early jwirt of the night
the men frequently debated among
theniselvei the advisability of going
home and once took a vote as to wheth
er they should remain or quit which
was decided by tossing a stone in the
air. "Wet" was agreed upon and the
wet side turned up, but even after this
only six of them left. The others felt
that they should leave, but could not
bring themselves to desert the com
pany. Edward Hughes, one of the men who
refused to stay In the mine, gives a
clear account of the mannrr in-which
the men viewed their situation. To a
Tribune reporter who hunted him , up
yesterday he said:
"There were about forty-five of us on
the 7.30 o'clock shift. We knew there
was danger before we went In and jvere
In dread if an accident all along.
About 6 o'clock In the evening there
was an explosion In the workings about
1.000 feet from the foot of No. 3 rlope.
The Ens was set off by two Polanders
and one of them was bndly burned.
The other staid at the head of the
shaft to warn the ntsht men and when
wo went In we did so with the intention
of proceeding very, caul lntiKly. Ed
ward Delnney, the (bor,!i-tlinlirrmnil who
had charge of our shift, told us to wait
at the foot of the alone till he went
ahead to test the air. Tom Tenpcnny
went to the 'heading' side of the road
but had to come back on account of the
gns. There had been a fall inside of us
and It was driving the gas back so It
was Impossible to go Into the workings
where the day men had been timbering
and where we were to put In the night,
finishing the job. The whole crowd of
us sat around tho foot of No. 3 slope
from the time we went In until prob
ably half-past ten. It. was going for
ten o'clock when 1 left and and those
who remained were still loafing around
there then.
"We had been debating all night as
to what was the best thing to do, and
while all seemed to think that we ought
to quit, no one would be the first to
make the start. About, 0.30 the men
were getting pretty, well worried and
several suggested that we ought to send
for the bosses. This was done. While
we were waiting for the bosses the
cracking grew worse and we expected
every, minute to have a fall or an ex
plosion. Finally John Williams got up
and proposed that we go home. 'Boys,1
he said, 'the best thing ive can do Is to i
get out of here, I said I thought so too,
and others agreed with us. Martin
Healey suggested 'let us" throw up a
stone and decide whether we'll go or
stay.' 'All right,' the men chorused.
"What will It Iip, wet or dry?' asked
Healey. Some called one and some
called the other, all hands joining In the
voting. 'Wet' was tlnally agreed upon
and 'wet' won on the toss. 'Boys, that
tells us to go home, and wo ought to go,'
said Healey, and off he started. Thomas
O'Brien, John Williams, Michael Lan
gan, James Golden and myself went
with him. As we were going out Thomas
Murphy, the Are boss, called after us In
a sort of laughing way; 'Oh, you fel
Iowa are foolish to be going; out.' We
made no answer, but I heird some one
of the fellows who staid behind say
lng: 'No, they're not. They are doing
just what's right.' I expected that they
would all come out when the start was
made, but poverty will often make a
mau do things he knows la not the best
for him. especially in these hard times.
"When we ifot to the head we wait
ed around outside until 10.30. when Lan
gao came along and liegan organizing
a gang to go down. McCormack and
the other borses also f wn arrived, and
the men had so much confidence in them
that tVy had no difficulty In securing
reinforcements, notwithstanding; the
fact that thry knew that some of us
had refused to work any longer. Even
O'Brien and Golden, who came out with
vs. went back with Langan. as did als
the six timhemien who were working
outside. They took about thirty men
down with them and youm Picker tells
me that as soon as the bosses got in they
put the men to timlierlng In th'e work
ings beyond the font of the slope. The
gns had (jone away probably while they
were waiting for the bosses t ome.
They also put a gamr of men at work re
moving a new pump. which they thought
to save from the threatened fall."
THE INSPECTOR'S STATEMENT.
Hoped to Up Able to Attack tho Main
Fail This Mrrning.
Mine Inspector McDonald, who had
been directing the work all day left at
i o'clock, when Superintendent Mostler
of the Lehigh Valley engineering de
partment arrived to relieve him. Be
fore going he was asked for a state
ment by a Tribune reporter. He said:
"Another cave-in Is feared and all
our efforts are now being directed to
secure the tunnel where the rescuer.
must wrk. We are hindered greatly
by the frequent 'squeezes' but hope by
tomorrow mornlnz to nttack the main
fall. The wen hn'c pushed the tunnel
to the head of No'. .1 slope, which Is SOU
feet from the foot of the shaft. Every
thing Is In doubt but It does not seem
possible thut nny of the men are alive.
T have not given th' matter of inves
tigating the cause of the accident nny
attention as yet. My whole thought
now is to help In reaching the; victims.'
THE CLEAR SPRING TUNNEL.
Diamond Drill Set atW ork YrslcrduV
Allernoon.
The work of driving a pianway from
the Clear Spring cvolllery was abandoned
yesterday morning as being dangerous,
for should water bo encountered on the
Twin shaft sld- of the dividing pillar
nnother disaster might be reached. A
diamond drill was. however, net up and
an inch and a half hide is being driven
in a diagonal course through the SO foot
pillur. A valve Is so attached that in
case water is truck it can be Immediate
ly blocked and the drill removed. It
Is expected ithat this work will require
about thirty-six hemrs.
If no water or gas is encountered the
driving of the manway will 1 resumed
This will open nn the old workings in
the rear jf the territory in which the
gaa was encountered Sunday morning
by the party which attempted to push
their way to the rear of the face by the
i Ircuitious route described yesterday
Even though the cutting of this man
way Is feasible there is every possibility
that a fall will be found at the other
end. At all events it will require three
or four days to cut It and It cannot ef
feet much gmxl.
A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAD.
f'nds nml Three Dinner I'uils found
by the Hescucrs.
Yesterday afternoon when the rescu
ing party reached the head of No.
slope one of the men. John Martin,
came upon a cap which had evidently
been lifted from the head of one of the
victims by the rush of air and carried to
the point where it was found. They
crowded around to see If they could
Identify It and while they scrutinized
It with the dim light of the safety lumps
Martin who held It In his hands begun
to sob plteously. It was his brother
Peter's cap.
Three dinner pails were also found
near to where the cap was picked up.
one of them belonged lo young Thomas
Wall. It was recognized by his, rela
tives when it was sent up to the sur
face. i AN APPEAL FOR AID.
