MINERS KILLED.
MISHAP IN CANADA. Received April 21, 12.55 p.m. VANCOUVER, April 20. A message from Beardmore (Ontario) states that four miners were killed and three injured when a lift cage in the Northern Empire gold mine, bringing up the night shift, slipped its cable and plunged 800 ft and wedged itself in the shaft. It necessitated a rescue by severing the cage top with the aid of acetylene torches.
