Blast in Mine Fatal for Ten

Thirty to forty other miners escaped harm. Company president James F Trotter said the accident was the first major one since the mine opened in 1918 and the cause remained unknown though a broken cable or other trigger could have touched off gas after a normal fall at the working face released a gas pocket.
