the queen was attended by two maidens who

COUNTY ATTORNEY BREEN BACK.
Official Returned From Deer Lodge
Business Trip.

County Attorney Breen has returned
from Deer Lodge.
He was at Deer Lodge to assist in the
prosecution of John Warne for the MUIR
der of Eveline Blewett. little girl. The
ilry that tried Warne acquitted him, but
i, fell far short Of convincing Mr.. Breen
of his innocence.
The stories told the county attorney
by Warne's convict cellmate and wom-
an who saw Warne and the Blewett girl
in the old mans cabin were too conclu-
sive to his mind.
The county attorney was disgusted at
the freedom allowed Warne before his
trial. Though accused Of an unbailable
offense, Warne was permitted to wander
about at will.

New York, Oct. 18.-Fifty tons OF rock
caved in the rapid transit tunnel at
167th street and Broadway today, carry
ing death to an undetermined part OF
40 men who were at work before the sur
face. The known dead are:
PETER O'HARA.
DANIEL KELLIHER.
LUIGI DAHESE.
PATRICK MADDEN foreman.
Many of the workmen were imprisoned
in a small chamber Of the excavation and
their fate will not be known until the
rescuers who are digging toward them
reach the point where they are entOmb-
ed. They are 600 feet south of the
great shaft at the intersection of 167th
street and Broadway, and 11O feet under
ground. 1t was estimated by some of
the engineers that there was air enough
in the cave-in to keep the imprisoned
men alive for several hours. The engi-
neers decided the only way to get to
the cave-in was to tunnel around the
rock which had fallen.
The contractors are unable to explain
the disaster. They said it was the west
side of the tunnel work that had COL
lapsed and that it had seemed on in
spection to have consisted of solid rock
and to have been very firm. n
