Inspector Conflrma Report Colliery
Vat Death Trap.
CHEYENNE), Wyo Aug. 1. (Special.)
State Coal Mine Inspector Noah Young's
report of -the Hsnna coal mine disaster of
March th, when fifty-nine men lost their
livts, and, causes of the accident, which
was fl'ed with Governor Bryant B. Brooks
yesterday, has created a terisatlon, snd c n
firms statements made from t'.me to time
In these dispatches that the Hanna colliery
has been pn fire for years, was a death
trap and should be permanently eloped.
Inspector Young charges the coal com
pany with greed In operating this mm,
with failure to comply with the state laws,
etc He says eighteen men lost their live
In the first explosion on March 28, and
forty-one In the second accident on the
fame date.
According to the Inspector's report fire
brcke out In Hanna mine No. 1 of the
I'nlon Paolflc Coal company on March 22,
1DG8; that Superintendent Brlggs and foices
of men fought the fire, and instead of brat
tic, ng It off with stone or some other
non-destructible material, which would
have extinguished the flames in from sixty
to ninety days, wood was used, which only
partially controlled the fire. As a result
the deadly white damp was produced, and
with large ouantltles In the workings, an
explosion was caused when Superintendent
Brlggs and seventeen men went in on
March 2f, and a second explosion when
Mine Inspector David Ellas and forty men
went In a few hours after the first ex
plosion. Inspector Young reports that the coal
company does not obey the laws, and: he
recommends that the statutory require
ments be more rigidly . enforced in the
future; that new and more stringent laws
be enacted by the next legislature. He alsi
recommends that the Hanna mine be closed
permanently, and no further effort be made
to recover the forty-five remaining bodies
therein, pointing out that all are probably
burned to an unrecognisable mass, so that
relatives would not kno-w whether they
were burying their own, or the relatives
of some one else. And, in all probability,
says the Inspector, mejiy of the bodies
were completely destroyed by the terrible
explosions that completely wrecked the colliery.
The report closes with recommendations
that the use of black powder In mines be
discontinued; also that coal mines should
not be operated until they have b en opened
sufficiently . and safety appliances hare
been installed to fully protect the men. .

Omaha Man Asks for Patent.
ABERDEEN, 8. D., Aug. l.-(Speclal.)-A
device to save coal and lncreaae the
steam power of traction engines has been
Invented by C. II. Noyes or Omaha, who
came here a short tlmo ago to work out
the details of the invention and test Its
value. Noyes made a test on a 120-horse
power engine." The device was attached to
the engine for two weeks an investiga
tion showed that a saving of 16H per cent
of coal had been made and that better
work had been accomplished. Noyes
planned his device on the theory that when
walcr gets mixed In the cylinders with the
steam there Is bound to be a reduction of
power. He sought to overcome this and
he claims his device causes the cylinder to
be filled with nothing but "dry" steam,
which Increases the power of the engine
ami reduces the consumption of coal. A
machinery house here has become Inter
ested In the Invention and a patent has
just been applied for.

when an Immense spring and fall business
was recorded.
For ready reference the Omaha Jobbers'
and Manufacturers' association is sending
out au.OuO cards to "hang up on a desk,"
giving the dates for the three meetings
already arranged, which enables dealers to
corns to Omaha on a lower basis of railroad
rates than ever before, a fare and a third.
The Omaha association is the first of the
Missouri river markets to announce mer
chant meetings and give buyers an oppor
tunity to take advantage of the rates made
by the railroad companies.
But Omaha has been left off the list by
the railroads for the first dates of the
fall merchants' meetings, which. It is said,
begin in lomt of the other towns August i.
This is due to the short notice which the
railroads were able -to give and which
under the new laws could not bo given
