Thousands of persona gathered
near the mouth of ihe mine. Many i
were the curious, but there were
too, the women and children wait--

husbands and fathers.
The debris at the opening of the
mine was removed by the workers'
and orders were given to brings out
the wounded first. It was estimat
ed that it would take until early
morning to complete this task. .
Identification squads have already
been named, and their work will
proceed with all possible human
speed in order that anxiety of re

At ten o’clock Wednesday night,
fresh crews replaced the now tired
