SPRING [I LL, Ml N iS, N. S., Febl. 23.
-An explosion rccurred in the mines of
this place yesterday. At midnightnmie
ty-four bodies have been recovered, and
the total nubcr of' dead is 1hought to
be 117. A largely a ttended public mect
Ing was held last evening and arrange
ments for a public funeral on Tues(day
were completed. Chief Inspector Gilp
In arrived yesterday morning, accompa
nied by Madden and went down into the
mine. Mr. Gilpin says so far as the evi
dence shows the explosion occurred in
either No. 7 or 6 balances, and that the
force of the explosion in these balances
is very great. Most of the timbers were
knocked out, allowing the roof' to faill,
breaking boxes and mutilating men and
horses. Tow small fires were smoulder
ing in the debris, but were extingmshed
at once without any difliculty by the
searching party.
Tha explosion, Mr. Gilpin says, did
very little damage to property in No. 7
slope, having extended but a short dis
tance beyond the tunnel, and all the
deaths in that slope were from suffoca
tion by fire damp. Manager Swift was
at9the bottom of No. I slope about fifteen
mnutes before the explosion occurred,
and intimated to one of the roadsmnen
that lie was going into the place were
the explosion occurred. Ile has not
been seen since ; probably his body will
be recovered when some of the debris is
cleared up.
A boy named Boaton heard the ex
plosion and ruslied offto the place where
lie knew his brother was at work and
succeeded in carrying himi out unin
jured. His heroism is one of' the chIef
topics of conversation. There were
plenty of volunteers to search for all the
bodies. Men who came to the pit as
spectators divested themselves of' their
coaLs and unhesitatingly went to the
rescue of' their 10llow workmen. Many
ghastly scenes were to be seen, both on
the surface and underground. Several
of the bodies were so fearfully mutilated,
that they were placed im bags and
brought up to the surfice.
The exploslon is more disastrous to
life than any other in the history of coal
mining on this continent, It is a singu
lar coincidence that the loss of lif'e
equals that of both the Ford pit and
Drummond colliery explosions. The
number of lives lost at the Ford pit was
fifty-three, and Drumniond sixty-four.
The list of dead reaches 119. of whom
fifty-four were married, forty simgle and
twenty-live boys. Ninety-seven bodies
have been taken out; .161 children were
orphaned. A good deal of' distress
prevails. No explanation of' the acci
(lent can be given. The mine is being
put in order no resume oeiations Wed
iesday. The damage to the property
is comparatively small. The following
appeal has beent issned:
"To the Public : A mininm- disaster.
attended with fIatal results unparalleled
in the history of the Canadian mines,
has fallen on the town and people of
SprInghill, N. S. The loss of' lie is
probably as great as the combined ap
palling losses at the DrIuiumionld and
Ford pit explosions. About 119 lives
were lost: ifty-four widows have been
left behind and 161 children made
fatherless.
"The widows and fatherless will need
abundant assistance, and t,hat priomiipthy
from a p)ublic shocked and horrified by
this terriible calamit,y. Seventy thousand
dollars will be required to meet the
demands and to alleviate the suifferings
of the bereaved and1( distressed duiniL
the most pressing pieriodi of' their dlire
misfortune. The residenits of Springhill
in meeting ass(ebl have appointed a
committee, consisting of' the Mayor,
Town Council andl all resid1ence cler'gy,
to solIcit and acknowledhuc subscription
to the Springhill relief lund, and thev
::onfidently and earnestly ask for an ini
mediate response5 fromi personis of allf
denominations, societies, tradles, Lruils
and nationalities. Willamu I f all, Maynor,
