Nina Mon Entombed Whom It Will Toto 'l’eii Days to Beach. ‘ VICTOR, 0010., Jan. 6.—A terrible oc- cldent occurred yesterday at the Anna Lee‘ mine of the Pbrtland company On Battle mountain. Nine men have, been. caught in a big cavein and are in all probability dead. The names ‘of the miners working in the Lee shaft are: Su- perlntcndcnt W. E. Loan, Assistant Su- perintendent Thomas H. Sheldon, Jim Hancock, Pat Mee, Jack M-alory, Joe Dinsmorc, Mick McGulrk, Thomas Har- nan and one man whose name is unknown at present. Pat Mes. Jack Malory and Thomas H. Sheldon were going down in the cage when the caveln occurred. They were in the cage between thc third and fourth levels when the shaft pinched. It is pos- sible that they'have been thrown into one of the drifts and are safe, but no tid~ lugs can be had from them. The work 'of rescue was started at once, and great o orts are being made to reach the men. It is doubtful, however, if this can be done in time to save them on ac- count of the general character of the dis- aster. The caveln began 85 feet from the top of the shaft. It is believed that it Will take ten days to rescue the entombed miners, as the shaft on the Anna Lee is about 900 feet deep. . About two weeks ago the shaft of the Lee sank to such an extent near one of the stations about the mludle of the shaft that the cage on which there were three men at the time would not pass down- The engineer refined and brought the men up. This was the first indication that the workings wore closing in, and efforts were made to remedy the trouble.
