three killed and wounded had been car
| ried away from the RUNS. No estimate
| can be made Of those buried under the
debris. but it is believed by some that
| the number is not very large as but few
persons were inquirlng for missing rel
aLives and friends. Others think the
number buried under the walls is large,
and that inquiry is not made for them,
because many OF the employees had no
regular homes, and consequently no
| friends or relatives on the lookout for
| them. A large number of men are now
| at work removing the debris and search
| ing for the dead.
