In almost every case identification was made by means of personal effects. The bodies were badly decomposéd. The men were trapped in Horning | mine on the afternoon of Wednesday, February 3, just after the day force of between 700 and %00 miners had left the workings. Those entombed had remained behind to fight a emall fire and were being directed by Gen- eral Supt. Ernst and Supt. Travis. Other mine offictals had been in the workings a short time previous. Immediately following the blast ex- pert rescue workers from the Pitts- burgh station of the United States Bureau of Mines, as well as rescue teams from nearby mines, rushed to the scene. Work was hindered for several days because the fire had spread, and finally fire walls were erected to smother the blaze. The presence of a large quantity of gas also delayed the work, and extra pre- cautions were taken to prevent another explosion. Confusien as to the exact number of men in the mine had existed ever since the explosion. The number was definitely set at 20 after a careful chiec of the bodles and the mine pay roll.
