Cardiff, Oct. 14.—More than

it is believed, from fire and after-

shortly after 931 men had des-
cended into the pit.
All men in the east side of the
mine had reached the surface at
4 o’clock, but 418 still were in
the west workings, which were
on fire.
Colonel Pearson, chief inspect-
or of mines, stated :
‘’The fire is in the in-take air-
way and everything is being
done to cope with it. We are
hoping to the last.”
Five hundred had been rescu-
ed up to noon, when fire broke
out and halted the work.
The day shift of 931 men des-
cended the shafts in the cages at
5 o’clock. An hour afterward a
deafening report brought inhabi-
tants in the vicinity of the mine
running to the pit head, where
they found the ventilating and
hoisting machinery at the top of
the shafts had been blown to
atoms by an explosion. A man
who had been working 60 feet

the blast.
