Nine Men Killed and Five
Injured by Rock Slide.
WERE CAUGHT IN A TUNNEL.
Bodies Still Beneath Rocks.
It May Be Impossible to
Recover Them.


Roanalte Va, May S.--Details arriv-
I'd here of fearful accident which oc-
cured in the east end of est End tun-
mel, known as tunnel No. ., at Eggle-
stone Springs, Giles county, on the
Norfolk and Western railway, in which
nine men we're killed and five injured,
three of them fatally, while two 9TH
srs were miraculously saved. Rail
road contractors. were engaged in don-
BILE tracking the two tunnels at the
point named, and it was due to their
operations that the accident happened.
1t seems that when the tunnellng force
had removed the earth and stone from
the tracks at the point where the ca
lamity occurred, that a huge slide of
solid stone gave way on the mountain
side and came down at an angle OF
about 45 degrees, crushing the life out
of nine men.
This strata Of solid rock was found
to be connected only by clay seams,
and when the foundation was removed
the strata, some fifty feet long, came
with tremendous force and without
warming, catching the men in the death
trap. One man was in the niche of the
tunnel way and was only grazed on
the face and head and escaped with
slight injuries He was removed with
out difficulty A second man, who
stood on the outer edge of the slide,
was only slightly hurt but three 9TH
ers were more unfortunate and were
SO badly injured that it is feared they
will die. The bodies of the other men
are still under the mountain slide
A wreclsing car and derrick were ta-
ken out from Radford, but, so far, have
been OF no avail There is no likeli-
hood that the bodies can be recovered
soon. as the ROCKWELL have to be dyna-
mited and removed bit by bit. 1t is
considered dangerous proposition as
the length of the strata is not known
So far it has been impossible to Sc
cure the names Of the victims They
are only known 70 the contractors, and
they can only Judge by the missing
members Of the force 1t was a mixed
gang, composed Of both white and col
ored laborers.

Of mucous. This discharge of mucous is the
same as the loss of blood. 1t produces
weakness.

Protest Made to New York Com
missione. Against Rigid En-
forcement Of Sunday Laws
10000 WORKERS AFFECTED.
Committee Charges Police With
Collecting Blackmail and a Mass
Meeting Will Be Called if AL
legged Oppression Continues.

/, REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
| New York, Feb. A.-Hebrews OF the East
Side are greatly incensed because Of the
rigid enforcement of the Sunday laws by
the police. Two committees visited Com
missioner Greene to protest, to tell him that
the police had made it a habit to collect
blackmafl from the Hebrew storekeepers
and to inform him that a series of indigna-
ton mass meetings would be held unless
assurances were given that greater ~leniency
would be used in the future
Complaint has also been made to District
Attorney Jerome. who has expressed him
self as being in full sympathy with the or
thodox Hebrew who observes Saturday as
tho Sabbath and then claims the right to
work on Sunday. but he expressed the opin-
ion that little relief could be expected I'M
der the present laws.
1t is probable that an issue will be forced
in the matter of Sunday observance unless
Mayor Low ard General Greene interfere
for greater libcrality. Those who visited
General Greene are representative Hebrews
of high standing. and they did not hesitate
to say that a continuance Of the work done
last SUNDAY by the police under the COM
mand OF Captain Dreamer would drive
many voters to the support OF Inc next
ticket. Among those who were
at Police Headquarters to protest were
Philip Cowen, Supervisor of the City Rec
ord; Doctor Blaustein, superintendent Of
the Educational Alliance; Meyer Block and
Joseph Mngidorf of the Jewish Morning
Morning News, and NJ. Hernoil2ino of the
Jewish Herald.
After representations had been made that
the police were actuated by no high moral
grounds In the crusade against the Hebrew
shopkeepers and workmen. who. observing
their own Sabbath. do not feel that they
can anord to lose two days out OF every
seven. the members Of the committee asked
General Greene to issue orders which would
give to the orthodox Hebrews liberty to
follow their own religious teachings.
General Greene asked whether there had
been any Matchmaking practiced by the
police. He was told that almost every He
brew on the-East Side has had to pay
tribute at come time to the police. Cen
eral Greene assured his visitors that he
and SEQ what could be dome to mitigate
what he admitted was a hardship.
President Herman Grossman Of the Inter-
national Lady Garment Workers Union,
said that 1000 orthodox Hebrews had been
thrown ont OF employment sunday by the
activity Of the police.
