Cherry, III. Especially Hope arous-
ed by the rescue alive of 90 entomb-
ed men from the st. Paul mine just
one week after the starting of the
fatal fire was crushed Sunday, or at
least deferred in fulfilment, for not
one more of the $40 men caught by
the fire was found.
The day was spent in removing
bodies from the mine and in burying
the corpses heretofore recovered.
Sunday night the records showed
that of $40 men left in the mine last
Saturday night, 1873 are still missing.
while 80 bodies have been found
and 20 men rescued alive.
The fire that broke out afresh was
smothered to such an extent that ex-
plorers were able to work in the
mine, but black damp in one of the
galleries defied the men, as did cave
ins and other debris.
1t was not even discovered wheth-
er there are more men alive in the
mine galleries, although the explor-
ers, urged by the extreme condition
in which the 20 men saved were
found, worked with almost super
human strength and rapidity.
The finding of 81 bodies and their
removal after the morbid crowd
about the shaft had thinned, were
the only visible results of the days
endeavors.
Squads relieving each other at
frequent intervals worked frantical-
ly all night to remove obstacles OBJ
structing the east workings, for here,
If anywhere, it is believed survivors
may await deliverance.
Rain began falling, and for the
first time since the fire began there
was no one save newspaper report
ers lingering about the mine.
All day long the tolling of church
bells resounded in Cherry and Spring
Valleys. Eighteen bodies were bur-
led in a field south of Cherry. At
the mine a dozen of victims in cof-
fms awaited removal, while a score
of coffins were piled nearby for 9TH
ers that might be brought to the sur
face.
Services for the dead were held
outside the churches, into which
Coroner Malm deemed 1t inadvisable
that the bodies be taken.
From the yet untitled graves in
which the Roman Catholic dead were
placed, the priests hurried to the
mine entrance to administer the last
rites to any dying man that might
be brought up

CITIZEN PROTESTS AGAINST GRANTING

I notice in the Herald that there is once

lease from the city the Warm Springs for
a long period of years. ninety-nine. I be
heve. As a United States citizen and tax
payer and having some regard for the in
terests of the people, l emphahcaliy pro-
test against this proceeding. Our city
fathers have given away franchises that
ought to have been made the source of
great revenue for practically nothing.
They have sold real estate that should
have been reserved for the uses of its
citizens. They have neglected to take adj
vantage of opportunities for securing
property for the public use as parks. etc.
They have overlooked or ignored these
things And out of the many public utili
tiesfhat the city could easily have owned
