 The men had just returned to work after the noon luncheon, when the building, which had been undermined by the excavation for the bank foun- dations. toppled over into the pit.
 Within half an hour ten lahorers, all colored, had been taken from the ruins.

 As the mass fell terrible cry went up from the imprisoned men, followed by silence.
 The voices of the living, however, soon began to direct the rescuers where to work, and volunteers aided the police and fire departments In their work .rsars salas
