NO RAY OF HOPE REMAINS.
It Will Probably Be Many Days Before
the Entombed Miners Can
Be Found.

WILKES BARRE, Pa, Feb. 19-To
enter the town Of Plymouth today one
would never dream that a catastrophe
had ever occurred there, and but few
curiosity seekers were seen at the Gay
lord mine. From all that can be
learned there is not ray Of hope of
securing the men alive. and the truth
of it is that it will be many days yet
before they are found. The reports
given out by many of the mine officials
are misleading and cannot be relied
upon. The news that comes from the
rescuers below has been in meager
quantities all day long.
The work OF the rescuing parties is
progressing slowly, and it is groundless
to say that they have made any great
headway since yesterday. The mine
is in such bad condition that the men
at work cannot push it to any degree
of safety
