The police and the officlals of the building department are sure that the man had a helper, but they are equally sure that the helper escaped from the cave-in that killed Finkelstein. The sand about the dead man's feet when they found him was loose and that about his body was tightly packed. This makes Captain Day of the Eld- ridge street police station lean toward the idea that his confederate tried, when Finkelsteln was caught, to pull him out from behind, and, failing to @0 so, left him there dying. The fact that Finkelstein had the tools for digging in his hands; that the tunnel seemed to extend no further than where his cramped body lay, and that his feet were in loose earth, a someone had worked them free— it 1 this makes them believe thut there is no other body in the tunnel.
