The entire case was reviewed and much of
tno evidence was a rendition of thntinliliii-i.il
at tne arst Inquest. Tho facts as agreed upon
by all parties concerned are as follows : Kar.
gont and Iavenbcrg were engaged In loading
iu mo isuoK Mountain voin of tho col
liery on tho morning of March 23rd when a
part ot tho West Mammoth gangway (No. 1)
uroppeu into urcast jno. S. Tho cave-iu re.
leased a body of the gas in Jho lower aban-
ahead of the trips to watch for any old tlm
nor tnat might be forced out and trip the
trips. The warning was not based upon any
upprenensioii oi a cave-ln. The breasts In
the lower workings, from Nos. 3 to 11 wore
wonted out, but only one of them bad lieen
snipped." That was breast No. 3. This
one was skipped to make a rook chute. The
ureastinio which the gangway was pulled
was to. 8. A similar cave-in occurred In
ureasts No. is and 13, but that was about ten
years ago.
Mr. Jones was asked whv be did nt.
into the matter when, a few dava liefhrti Hi
nccjiient, uevau told lilm he thought he
heard a fall In the lower workings. Jones
replied that In the first place tho lower work
ings were not in his district, and. ennllv
ne ten convinced that the fall was In
the Holmes voin above, where rohhinir
going: on. lie was then askeil whv li ilMn'i

The jury reached the following verdict

was oAtiseii by an explosion of gas in a gang,
wny at tho Wm. Ponn oolllerv. finld ornln.
siun was caused by the falling, or caving In

on tno part ot the otlic als. Flrn llns .ln
said he walked out oast on tho gangway less
thau fivo minutes beforo tho cave-in occurred
and noticed nothing to give him any alarm.

what had occurred. Jones and others then
hurried east to make a round about way
through the upper workings to tbo place
where the threo loaders wcro on tlm p.t

Meanwhile Sargent, Lavenberg and Haggorty

The best evidence thus far secured as to what

night. He testified that David Hopkins, tlm
guard, in answer to the requost for a light,

thoy couldn't get a light, as tho gangway had

PotighkfepKle, N. Y., June 80. Ilep-
rentatlv of Cornell, Columbia and
Pennsylvania yesterday drew for posi
tions In today's freshmen race. Penn
sylvania drew Inside course, nearest to
the west shore, Columbia the next
course and Cornell the outside, if
there Is any advantage In tide. Cor
nell gets It.
The race will take place over th two
mile course, starting at the two mile
mark on the four mile course and fin
ishing nt the recular finish line, the
run being down stream. The hour set
for the race Is not earlier than 6:30
this evening, and according to the
tidal conditions yesterday there will be
very fair current to help along the
outside crew. Such favor as Cornell
Is supposed lo gain by her successful
draw Is. however, contingent on th
hour of starting. Old rieff .Tien say
that If the race should be . elayed an
hour the advantage that Cornell seem-
.isly has will go to Tennsvlvnnln. n
the tide In the center, where Cornell
rows, will begin to turn or to be slack,
while where Pennsylvania rows It will
bo running out extra fast Just before
the full ebb.
Last evening' the 'trirercornelt crews
pulled up the river to the Icehouse, two
miles above the bridge. On the way
they passed the Pennsylvania crews
ooming down. It looked as if Ward
was sending his 'varsity over the course
against time, and Courtney said that
they were coming very fast. "The
record is In danger with that crew row
ing as they are doing tonight," he re
marked. Then his attention reverted
to ins awn men, and he pointed with
pride to the magnificent way In which
his 'varsity crew was rowing. "It
would be hard to beat that load as
they're rowing tonight," he said.
Ey this time the crews had reached
the icehouse, and were lining up for a
raco down the river. The freshmen. In
spite of their reported gloom over
their defeat last week, lined up with
tho rest nnd were as eager as any for
the fray.
"Look here f reshmonj'' - shouted
Courtney. "Do you think "you're going
to row a hard two miles the night be
fore your race? Well, I guess not. Pad
dle down a mile and fall In with the
others when they come up with you."
The youngsters sullenly obeyed, and
after waiting a while Courtney gave
the other crows the word. The 'varsity
got a little the better ot the start, pull
ing out with tremendous power and at
a clip that sent' them the first half
mile In about two minutes. After that
thoy lagged a little, and the "short
cakes" shortened the gap from a
length and a half to a length Just rb
the freshmen fell In nt the becinnln?
Df the second mile.
The second mile, which ended at the
bridge, was an exciting one. The fresh
men were beaten by the 'varalty by
about a length and a half, but the
"short cake" crew were fully three
lengths In the wake ot the ilrst crew.
There was a curious mixup last night
over tne selection of a referee. When
Managers Slnkler of Pennsylvania.
Foarlng of Columbia and Murdock of
Cornell met in the afternoon to draw
for positions they understood that they
would meet George S. Mumford, of
Harvard, who, it was practically
(Agreed, should be referee. Mr. Mum
ford waB not present, and there was no
word form him. Then it transpired
that about ten different persons had
been asked to referee the raoe, and
that the answer of acceptance, If there
was any, was In the hands of the col
lege representatives Mr, Wheeler of
Cornell, Mr. Bangs of Columbia and
Mr. Heath of Pennsylvania. There Is
no doubt that the person selected is
Mr. Mumford.
