Dawn lit the pale faces of the weary rescue workers, who had toil« ed throughout the night. Huddled be- hind were the women, relatives of the miners, who watched proceed~ ings which hourly grew moré hope-~ less. The entombed men were cut off by fire today and had little hepe of being located. They had struggled to a level where the air was a litfle better, but it was belived impossible that they would be brouglit out alive: Skips were shot down int6 the depths, plumbing for the level on which the men were believed to be. Each time they shot down, a wave pf hope surged through the waiting throng. Miners worked in an endless shift. Many of those who were off shift refused to go home to sleep, but re- mained watching. “They will never come out alive” a grimy faced giant whispered, low- ering his voice so that the women could not hear, The women were- the wives, daughters and sweethearts who waited patiently for sone word. A gang of miners fighting - the flames were working through the depths.of -the gold street tupnel. Tons of water were poured in only a few hundred feet from where the: entombed men are believed to bé imprisoned, but the men are behind a barrier of burning timbers sand fallen walls. The water rushed down to a 2,600 foot level. Canaries were lowered in the skips and when they were pulled up the birds were dedd.
