The death today of one of the survivors brought to the surface last Saturday reduced the total number of those saved out of the 310 lost in the isaster, to nineteen. Nearly all of the forty-two bodles taken out yesterday were | Identified. Down in the mine the rescuers met with great obstacles. In one instance fire broke out in a tunnel, temporarily cutting off the escape of twenty-five men who had ventured 400 feet from the holsting shaft. The smell of smoke gave the warning above and the rescuers were reached and | brought to safety by another rescuing party. Following" & telegram ‘sent' to Governge, Deneen by the executive board of the miners' organization asking that some one of the mine, Mine Inspector Hector Me- Allster was placed In charge. It was said that despite the fire and the discouraging news of tunnels having fallen in, the re cue work will be pushed night and day. Second Gallery Blocked. Fire in the second gallery resulted today heavy cavings of earth, blocking the In this section will' be the best chance of finding sur- vivors, It s found that the passage is 5o badly blocked that it will be impossible for many days to make an entiance. Meanwhile men now alive may starve. The news spread gloom throughout the village, re- lieved only by the falrer prospects of ex- ploring the 50 foat, or bottom shaft. It Is said the blockade In the entry to le east is near the main shaft. As one ‘mm. is followed by another, endangering hie lives of the workers, attempts to re- move the debris were halted and efforts begun to hew & new passage through solid earth around the fire and plles of earth. According to Duncan McDonald, presi- dent of the United Mine Workers of Iili- nols, this will take several days. “Does that not mean that practically all hope 0f reaching imprisoned men in east workings have been abandoned, or practi- cally 807 Mr. McDonald was asked. The union official looked gloomy and did not_answer directly. “We have hopes of rescues in foot level,” he sald. After experlencing all the terrors of his long imprisonment and the joy of beln brought to the surface alive, David Hol- lofchiek, one of the twenty survivors res- cued Saturday, died today. Death was due to general exhaustion. Pure Alr in Lower Vein. At midnight yesterday boy miners had forced their way into the third vein, pre- paring the way for a rush of their com-| rades to the same vein today. They de- ted the air In the gallery stagnant, but capable of sustaining life, the water but a few Inches deep and all Indicatlons favorable to the prolonging of life to/ Jhose Imprisoned in the depth. The youths, Robert Mcladden and Bar- 16y Dougherty, had searcely emerged from | the shaft when tidings were spread that the fire in the second vein had broken out wnow, All preparations for the further expl ing of the vein were haited while Chicago firemen attacked the blaze which threat ered the main shaft.

Then they hurried | back to the cage, ‘“There Is no reason why they shouldn't be alive” said| Dougherty.
