not consistent with the facts. It is known
that Tillman is the farmers’ candidate,
and that he has a good following, and
some of the knowing ones are bold enough
to say that he is gaming ground.
Tillman says “free trade” is a dead

hope lias given way to despair, and few,
if any, expect to find the men alive.
People have from all sections of the country
been to the scene, and since Sunday

the entombed place. The fathi-
lies of many of the miners are in desti¬

In speaking of the disaster, Mr. Wor-

mine, and I find we have struck solid
coal, through and how long it will take us to get
it I cannot say. We will do all
we can, but we feel bettor now that we

It is thus seen that little, if any hope,
is entertained of rescuing the entombed
miners, and no one knows how long it
will be before an opening is made to the
mine, but despondency ha* settled over
the rescuers, os well as the community,
and when the worst is made known, it
