Hopeless Attempt to Rescue the California Miners. THE LEAGUE ENJOINS JOHN WARD. ——_—_—_—. Bloodshed Feared in the Indian Territory. SES See MINERS BURIED ALIVE. Sixteen Men Caught in a California Shaft. Saw Aspre, Cat, Dec. 24—A disastrous cave-in occurred Sunday evening in the Lane mine, owned by Howard & Habart, located on the west edge of the Angels, by which sixteen men were buried. They were supposed to be dead, Nineteen men were sent into the drift on the 400-foot level to repair the timbering which had become loosened. They had not worked over an hour when the supports of the upper timbers suddenly swerved to the right and the roofing, earth and rocks fell, burying sixteen men underneath the debris. Thomas Corwin and two Italians were working near the mouth of the drift and managed to escape, although Corwin was badly injured. Corwin said the partitions were leaning badly when he went into the drift, but no ove suspected there was danger of a cave-in. When itcame they were all unprepared. He and the Italians es- caped as soon as they heard the timbers crack. The others also started & run, but were too far in the drift to be able to reach a place of safety. Immediately after the accident the men were let down the shaft and entering the mouth of the drift commenced dragging in the debris, They found the attempt almost use- less, as the timbers seemed to have becu woven together as though the sides of the drift had been covered by the roofing. By last evening the rescuing party had succeeded in getting eight feet into the pile of earth and timber and none of the victims bad been Teached, There is no prospect of getting the men out alive, > HONOR TO GRADY.
