Chicago, october Awhile fifteen
workmen we're employed in the con-
struction of a sewer in the suburban
village of Rogers park this afternoon,
and while engaged in digging twenty
five feet from the surface, a cave-in
occurred which threatened for a time
to swamp the whole gang. Patrick
O'Donnell was instantly killed and
Henry X. McNicols injured so seriously
that he probably cannot survive. 1t is
estimated that twenty-five tons of earth
was precipitated into the opening, and
for a time it was thought all the men
had met their death. Their escape was
little short of miraculous.
