16c. For wholesale prices these figures are remarkable for this point. Twenty-six head of steers were sold in Den- ver last week for $4.75 per hundred, bringing $77 each. Another bunch was sold there for $5.05 per hundred. These steers were alfalfa fed. Accident In The Key An accident occurred in the Key at Pinos Altos Wednesday morning about 8 o’clock, which may cost two men their lives. Antony Vertino and Beru Qurorello were drilling a hole when the drill penerated another drill hole al- rady loaded with giant. When the steel struck the giant an explosion occurred which blew Vertino’s eyes out, tore off his nose and broke his under jaw. His arms, legs and body were filled with rock. Qurorello’s left eye was seri- ously injured and numerous flesh wounds re- ceived in the legs, arms and body. His wounds would not be considered serious were it not for the fact that he already had erysipelas, which makes his recovery very doubtful. A Mexican by the name of Jose Madrillo was working in the same shaft and was badly powder burned. Dr. Stephens was telephoned for and spent several hours picking out rocks and patching up the Italians. The parties are now at the Sister’s hospital, and are receiving every attention possible.
