ALL BELIEVED TO BE DEAD Rescuers Begin at Once on the "Work of Clearing Out the tebrJs in Effort to Reach the Workers. 1 WILBURTOK, Okla.. April 3a Thirteen minerc were entombed and probably killed by an explosion early today in the Missouri, Kansas & Texas 'kCoal Com pany's mine No." 19, four miles west of here. There is little prospect of their bodies being recovered for several days. They are: B. F. Stelner, foreman; Mike Wynn, Ralph Fisher, Ben Smith, William Atkin son, C. Golden, Joe -Morine. ail white, and Gus Phillips, Knox Lynch, J. D. Byrd, Mike Duvall, R. F. Cales and William Ed wards, colored. The men went into the shaft at mid night. Foreman William Ray, of the shift that left the mine at that hour, states that the mine was in good condition and a. gas explosion was hardly probable. His shift left a shot banging which the new shift may have fired. It is suggested, from the force of the explosion, which could be heard for miles around, and which tore heavy timbers aside and piled tons of dirt into the shaft, that a bad shot had set off some dynamite which has been stored conveniently for use in pushing the work. The shaft is 360 feet deep, and it was 300 feet to the place where the men were working. The men were supplied with air from the shaft, and by means of compressed air tubes. It is the general opinion that the air pipe was burst by the explosion, but air has been steadily pumped in all daj. with the remote hope that some of the entombed men may have escaped tho fcrce of the explosion and the after-damp. The rescuers began work within a few minutes after tho explosion. An attempt at fanning air In with canvas was aban doned when the condition of the shaft be came apparent. Four shifts have since worked, taking out the d,ebris and tim ber At 6 o'clock tonight the workers were still 30 feet from the bottom of the shaft. The condition of the timbers Indi cate that it will be necessary to recase the mine, in which event the bodies may not be reached before Wednesday or Thursday. It is the opinion ol experienced miners that all df the men are dead. Foreman Steiner was killed at the bottom of the 5hafL He had returned to the surface a few minutes before the explosion to look after Bud Cole.. a,. negro belonging to tho preceding shift, whose log had been cut eft by a trip. He had, -according to the engineer, barely reached the bottom of 'yiRC snaii wnen inc explosion occurreu. The heels of his shoes were torn off and thrown to the top of the shaft.
