Victoria. B. C. May 7. The telegraph
wires between British Columbia and the
south were down yesterday. Lat night's
telegrams from the CWoawr ISanainao
correspondent state that 101 white men
and 75 Chinese were in the mine at the
time of the explosion. Ferty -seven
women have been made widows by the
disaster and 130 children orphaned.
Some Chinamen refused to place the
dead in coffins and had to be compelled
by force to do so. Many homes are com
pletely broken up and the city is in sack
cloth and ashes. The stores st ill continue
closed and little business is being done.
Flags are at half-mast. All hope of sav
ing the men now in the mine has been
abandoned. It is absolutely impossible
that any can have survived. Most of the
men were from Cornwall, Yorkshire and
Wales and a few from Nova Scot ia.
