The Men Apt to Starve to Death Be-

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 14.-There are
no new developments today at the Gay
lord mine in Plymouth. Rescuers are
working hard through solid coal to reach
the entombed miners, but, so far, they
have been unable to communicate with
them in anyway. Should they all be-
alive now it Is safe to say that they will
starve before they can be reached. In
this event eleven widows. will be left TO
care for forty-hve orphans.
LITTLE ROOM FOR HOPE.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb Ia, III D. m
Mine Inspector Williams, who returned
from the Gaylord mine late tonight, says
it will be several days before the rescuing
party can reach the thirteen men en-
tombed yesterday by the cavern. They
have over 800 feet Of solid coal to drive
through yet, and then the men may not
be in the place where they expect to find
them.
