CAME FORTH AS.
FROM A TOMB.
Thirteen Miners at COunierS
Walk Forth Alive Lost in GAL
Ieries Twenty Days.

LENS. France, March 31.-Thirteen
OF the l,200 miners who were entombed
in the coal mines at Courrieres twenty
days ago worked their way out and APP,
peared at one Of the pit shafts as so
many ghosts 10 their friends and rela-
tives. They were starving, but able
to walk.
They had lived on hay found in one
of the underground stables and the
morsels Of food which they took into
the mine with them nearly three weeks
ago.
All attempts TO rescue the entombed
men had been abandoned more than
two weeks ago.
The sudden appearance of the inn
prisoned men caused stupefaction. A
gang of salvagers had just completed
their nights work when they were
startled to see a group of miners, ter
ribly haggard and exhausted and with
eyes sunken, appear from n remote
part of pit No. .. The strongest of the
party stated that they had broken out
of a distant gallery where they had
been entombed since the disaster of
March 10. Later crowds besieged the
mines in the hope of hearing of ur-
ther escapes. necessitating the employ
ment of "A strong police force and de-
tachments of troops TO maintain order.
1t is said that others of the entombed
brought out, their signals having been
heard.
One of the men rescued. Il man
named Nemy, said that for the first
eight days the party ate the bark off
the timbering of the mine. Later they
found the decomposed body of Il horse.
which they cut up and ate with hay.
The survivors brought up portions of
the decomposed horse meat.
Nemy, who was the most lucid of
the miners who escaped, graphically
described their Imprisonment as fol
lows:
After the explosion | CROPPED my
way about. stumbling over bodies and
seeking refuge from the gases. ! found
some comrades sheltered in a remote
niche. We ate earth and bark for
eight days and then those provisions
gave out.
we continued to grope among the
bodies, seeking for an outlet from Il
prison. but were forced back time and
time again. We found some hay,
which we ate. and two days after we
found a dead horse, which we cut up
and ate with the hay and bark. We
suffered most from want of water.
Finally we became desperate and sep
arated into three parties and communi-
Gated with each other by shouts.
Last night we felt a draft of fresh
air, which finally guided us to an open
ing"
The survivors were sturdy young
miners from seventeen to twenty-five
years of age. except their leader, Henri
Nemy, who is thirty-eight. All show
the terrible effects of their experiences,
being emaciated, exhausted and blind
ed.
There is Il report that there are five
others alive in the mine who came al
most to the bottom of the pit. but We're
unable to come farther on account of
exhaustion.
The total number of men missing aft
er the catastrophe was LIP. The bod
les recovered approximately numbered
800, and there are still u~naccounted for
approximately 100.

Immigration
PLAN PLEASES
Law-n,akcrs Apparently Look
With Favor On MI. Koitrer's
Efforts.
MAY GET TEN THOUSAND
Commissioner Koiiier Wishes
This Amount to BE Used in
80
Exploiting Resources.

Many of the Legislators arc expressing
their approval OF the immigration plan
recently announced by the Department OF
Agriculture, and it seems likely that the
appropriation OF $4,000 desired will be
readily made when the plan is fully cx-
planned.
The objection that tho immigration
scheme will make Virginia the dumping
ground for tho ''riff-rnff" Of Europe Is
still heard In some quarters, notwithstand-
ing the repeated explanation that the
entire system proposed rs designed to
prevent this very thing. Several members
OF the General Assembly have also cx-
pressed concern lest the agents to be sent
to foreign lands should turn out to be
men who seek the positions simply for
the excitement of q trip abroad and who
will devote little time to real service In
the interests OF the State This objection
also arises from a misunderstanding Of
the operation of the plan.
THE agents we will choose. II this i'm
migration measure is adopted said Com
missioner Koiner yesterday, will be ca
pablo and careful men, who are devoted
to tho best interests of the State and who
will select wisely and well what class OF
foreigners shalt be brought to Virginia.
They viii be yirginians who are thorough
" acquainted with the conditions here
and will be men who are known and
trusted by the farmers OF the State. The
agents will be chosen with the utmost
care. and they will In turn exert them
selves to see that the labor imported into
Virginia to relieve the very grave stu
alton here is only OF character which we
will welcome"
Letters are still pouring into the Office
NJ the commissioner from farmers apply
Ing for hands. The farmers seem to have
gotten the Idea that the department has
an army OF laborers stored away in Rich
mond. ready for shipment In every direc-
fion. and each mail brings heaps Of re-
quests for from one to five men. This
tremendous and growing demand speaks
more eloquenuy than anything else OF
the needs OF the Virginia farms, and when
these facts are laid before the General
Assembly. together with clear explana-
ton of the proposed plan. IT Is believed
that the last objection will have been
removed and that the bill will be adopted.
