DEATH IN TUNNEL
May Be Lot of WOrkmen On Pennsylvania Railroad Improve ments Comrades Work

New York, Dec 19-Two men bur- led forty feet deep in a tunnel, facing death ill three different forms, by star yation, suffocation and drowning, and about POO of their comrades few feet above them digging against time to save their lives, was the situation to- day at the Pennsylvania railroad tun- nel in Long Island City. For more than thirty hours these two workmen have been entombed in this tunnel by the cave-in of it's mouth and it is by no means certain certain that there are only two men buried The police of Long Island City say that rhere are six. This tunnel is being built under the East river to Manhattan Island, but the entombed men are not under the river bed They are sealed up in the approach under Long Island City.
 New York, Dec 19.-The first word to be spoken to the rescuers by. the two men imprisoned forty feet deep in the Pennsylvania tunnel came this noon through an iron pipe. The words were. "For Gods sake hurry up." The speaker said no more than this to mo- tify the rescuers of the imprisoned mems plight. At this time there was but seven feet separating the rescuers from the imprisoned men. As this seven feet is all cement it is estimated it will take several hours more to reach the men. The message came through the pipe by which the men are being supplied with air.
 The two men who had been buried for forty hours in the East river tun- nel were taken out alive this after noon. The rescuers penetrated the tunnel in boat. When the rescued workmen had recovered sufficiently to speak intelligently. they said they were the only men who were caught in the acident and the work of sinking the shaft was thereupon stopped.

SHORT INAUGURAL ADDRESS

THE shortest inaugural ever delivered
George WaShington's address when he
took the oath of office for his second
term.
Another very brief inaugural WAS pro
nounced by Abraham Lincoln on March
q, 1860. Not because that wonderful
speech contained only about six hundred
words but because of its marvellous
diction. rivaling, as John Hay has Said
the fire and dignity Of the old Hebrew
prophets. and because of its magnan-
imouS sentiments prophetic of national
reunion, Lincoln'S second inaugural has
found its mcrited place among the mas
tcrpiecc> of aIl time.
Longer than LincOln's second nau-
gurnl. yet brief in comparison with the
greater number of similar uttcranccs
during our national history, are Jack
sons second. Grants first, and those of
Zachary Taylor. Chester A. Arthur and
Andrew johnson.
With instructive good taste MI Roose-
yclt restricted his uttcTlnces to less than
twelve hundred words, about the number
employed by Audrcw Jackson at the be-
gihring of his second term, and only
only four or five hundred more than
Abi-thaln I.i:'c>lu used on 1t memorable
occasion. Nh. Roosevelt also confined
his discourse t. the broader gencraitc<
of national duty and responsibility. UIiS
sentiments are UncXceptinnablc and they
are expressed IN fine literary forn)
