Pittsburg, Kan., November 9.— The most dreadful disaster in the history of Kansas occurred at 5 o'clock this evening. When the men were preparing to leave off their work at shaft No. 2, at Frontenac, a suburb of Pittsburg, a terrible ex- plosion was heard, that shook the earth fora great distance, aud com- pletely shut the shaft. Upon inves- tigation it was found that 160 men were within the mine at the time of the explosion. Being 112 feet be- Sow the surface it is almost certain that all are dead at this writing. The only exceptions were two men, who were ina car coming up, and being near the top of the shaft man- aged to escape. Pittsburg is in the center of the coal mines of Southeastern Kansas, and is about 100 miles south of Kansas City on the Fort Scott and Gulf road. BUT THIRTY-NINE DEATHS. Pittsburg, Kas., Nov. 12.—The accounts of the mine disaster at Frontenac have been so largely overdrawn that it is deemed proper, for the information of the public, that at least one true statement of the facts should be given. There has been, up to Sunday at 6 o’clock, thirty-nine dead bodies recovered and about twenty wounded or in- jured. Of the latter, not to exceed five will die. and probably not so many. Experts and volunteers are still thoroughly searching the entries and rooms of the underground work- ings for any bodies which may pos- sibly be left there, but it is thought fhey are all now discovered and in- cluded in the list of killed and wounded. There were originally about 150 men in the mine at the time of explosion. Those over and above the number of killed and wounded having escaped soon after the explosion by way of the air and escape shaft. Officials of the com- pany are on the ground from Topeka and all is being done that can be for the relief of the suffering and dis- tress of all the wounded men and destitute families.
