10:00 today says: Ae this hour 201 bodies

that between BOO and 400 men entered

Sai.t Lakf. City, May 2.?Two hnn4red
or luoro lives were lost in the ex- i
plosion of mine No. 4 of tlio Pleasant
Valloy Coal company, at Scofleld, Utah.
One hnmlrod and thirty-seven bodies
have already been reeovered. The work
of rescuo is still progressing, nlthongb
there is no hope that any of the men not
accounted for oseajKxl death.
The scene of the disaster is just outside
this place on the line of the Rio
Grande Western railroad. The explosion,
which occurred in the interior portion
of the mines, is attributed by some
to the blowing up of a number of kegs
of powder. The com|Kiuy lias two mines
known as No. I and No. 4. The explosion
occurred in No. 4.
As fust as bodies are reached they are
taken to the boardinghouso and other
company buildings where they are
dressed and prepared for the coroner.
In each building are from 10 to 2.1 bodies
which are lfiid upon long rows of
benches. ..
A special train bearing tho soriously
wounded is run from Seofiehl for Salt
Loke. ^
News of the disaster received in Salt
Lake gnve the list of killed at .'a, but if
was known in the evening that the full
stent of tho disaster was far greater.
It appears to lie one of those accidents
that are common to the very best regulated
mines and against the best endeavors
of the.most competent superintendents.
>luny Have Narrow Ksenpo.
W. (J. Woilson, mine owner, was in
the lower level. He said:
"There was a rumbling noise in the
distance, followed by a sort of wave that
can hardlv bo described, bar that is
km >wn to all who have been in explosions,
and I have been in several. I told
my partner that an explosion lmd occurred.
We ran to the tunnel with six
others. They had noticed the Strang
occurrence. We were none too soon 111
leaving the mine, for the after damp
reached us some !1 or 1 minutes before
we reached the open air, almost suffocating
us."
The after damp delayed the work of
the rescuing party, but the ma.K?iitn<1o
of the di"???ter soon became apparent.
Jill the men oil the raise known as
"Pike's Peak" st?x?d close together.

minutes before, was found and his men
lay dead around him.
Work of Itesciic Ilp"iiis.
As the foul air had cleared from No.
1 the work of rescue began and it was
anon seen that many of the miners of
No. 1 hud been suffocated. The lower
level hud beon warned of the explosion
and made their eseai>o lie fore the pisemi
air hud reached them. Cars were
takun in and the dead were loaded into
tfcem and brought to the mouth. As the
bodies wore brought out and recognized
bv their respective families the lamcntains
were most henrtrending. |
This mine has been worked for over
20 years and has the reputation of being
one of the best ventilated and protected
In the west.
State Mine Inspector Thomas stated
that la* inspected the mine three weeks
ago and believed it entirely safe at tlint
time. It had never been in had condition
and was free from gas and as the
eonl was loaded willi shovels there lias
not been a large accumulation of dust.
Nine-tenths of the men killed were
Americans and Welsh.
Iigurcd .Man's Story.
Henry Taylor, one of the injured men,
aid:
'I was preparing some track out on
the (lump when I started to the mouth
of the tnnuel to get some tools. Suddenly
there was an awful report and at
the same time a black cloud filled with
rocks, bore down on me like a streak of
lightning. The next thing I knew I woke
op with a man jiouring brandy down
mv throat, and 1 saw the lioys lying
all around me, moaning for help."
J. M. Beattie of Seofield, who is the
.j >. < |n I, .-VliCi (Ill 112 i 111*rival
rliirt morning that it was thought
the shaft in No. i hud been wijxvl out
ml mnnv wore killed in No. 1.
The scene around the mine was beyond
description. Women, children and
friends crowded around, weeping and
wailing, excited lieyond control, waiting
to see if the next body brought out was
their loved one.
The financial loss to the company cannot
at present lie estimated. This is regarded.
ns the worst disaster that has
ever occurred in this part of the country.
The nearest approach to it was the ]
Southern Pacific, Almy (Wy.) explosion j
five vears at?", when over 100 men were ]
killed.

JIoxtkvat.i.o, Ala., May 2.?A strike

alternative to goto work at tin* reduction

I Tltev notified him thev would not work.
Both sides are very determined niul it

this is the first strike that has ever occurred.

<- i | f(
London, May* 1{The following dis- i .
patch has been sent >y J*>rd Roberts to S(
the war ofiioo from liloeinfouU^n: tl
"The Boers uuulo Very persistent at- {|
tacks around Thaba NVhu Saturday
and Sunday. But the position which
the right (Rnndlo's) division bolus is i ji
very strong and he had the assistance of ; P
Gordon's and Dickson's brigades, the
vavairy under French uiwl .?tuiiih.T)nr. C
lien's infantry brigade and a body of ^
mounted infantry under Ian Hainilton.
Pole Carew's division has returned l'roin
Dewet's dorp."
Lord Roberts also cabled additional l<
casualties sustained during the lighting lt
of April 17 around Thulxi N'Chu, consistinjt
<>f Lieutenant Grady and two enlisted
men killed and one officer and I'
i three enlisted men wounded. c
Neither the commander-in-chief nor j<
! the correspondents' dispatches throw j
any light upon the plans being made to | c
oast the Boers from Tliaba N'Chu vi- | v
einity and how long before a definite C
move is made to assert suprein- f
aey is only a surmise. In the moan- a
time, the Boers are remarkably aggressive,
and especially in view of the. largo
forces opposing them. A special dispatch
from Thuha N'Chu says they t
made a daring attempt to cut off a Brit- u
isli convoy which got into broken ground
between Thalia N'Chu and Dewet's
dorp, opening lire from the adjacent J*
hills. In the nick of time, General Bra- *'
bazo.M, with a strong force of yeomanry, v
returning from Wepenor, arrived on tin*
scene ami extricated the convoy.
The same dispatch describes the dispo- 11
sit ion of the forces at-Th.iba N'Chu a < '
follows: v
General Ilundle is covering the advanced
ramp, facing the Bo rs' position
j to the cast, where they are strongly entrenched.
t
I General Ian Hamilton and General (]
j Smith-Dnvrien occupy strong positions
! t'l the road to the north.
Another dispatch says a company under
G au ral Hamilton located the Bocs J
to the north and an artillery duel o>
curvd without result. I
'flu-re was numb artillery firing without
much casualties. It is hardly likely "
that the forces will face each other ill 1
very large numbers until rein fore aiienta
arrive, as both sides seem to he waiting
ft .r't n? ?ps.
Stringent m asures are being ndopted
to prevent the Bier g aerial la-: from securing
suppiies from other centers.

Dcwct Is Foiled l?y Frcneh.
London, April 80.?The latest news i
received from the Orange Free State indicates
that though the Boers have '
evacuated Thaba X'Chu, they have only '
done so in order to occupy stronger po- ,j
sit ions. a
< )n Sunday General Dewot made an ?'
effort to turn General French's eastern 11
flank, which was only foiled by the car- "
alrv after vigorous maneuvers. The k
Boers holtl the ridges t > die eastward,
whence they will probably fall ba< k v
when the pressure of superior numbers 1
increase-. "
The British casualties sustained dnr H
ing the Thaba N'Chu fighting weie
slight. h
General French's object, now that nil d
chances of catching the main bodies of i
the burghers has disappeared, is tn (1
harass the Bo rs and prevent any well
organized retreat. ..
Tin- distance between Thaha N'Chu
and'Ladybrand is 10 miles and the veldt '
