American Snffragette
 Must Serve Sentence
(specIal from united Press.)


 London. Nov. 23--The American en- bassy cannot interfere to obtain the release of Alice Paul. the American suffragette who is serving a month In the worlxhouse at hard labor for smashing a window in the Guild Hall during the Kings birthday banquet.
 Mrs W. M. Paul of Morristown. N J.. mother of the imprisoned girl. ap- pealed by cable to Ambassador White law Reid. but the embassy after an investigation said today that interfer- ence was impossible as there Is no sus- picion that the judgment was not jus tified- Miss Paul is a Swarthmore college Eraduate and comes from a good family. Her father was a wealthy Philadelphia merchant
 The Engiish suffragettes are much disappointed at the failure of the ap- peal to the American ambassador. They saw an opportunity In the event of the Paul girl being released by dip lomatic interference of carrying on their votes for women" demonstra- tons without filling 5ails and work houses. They planned to call on their American suffragette sisters to come over to England and lead the demon stations. hoping for precedent that would render the American suffra- gettes immune from arrest

NO MINERS ALIVE
 IN LOWER LEVEL
All the Tunnels in That Vein Are Now
 Explored.
Especial from United Press.)

tcDecial rom Jnlted fresAD
 Cherry. Ills, Nov. 2s.-Hope that any miners are alive in the lower level of the St. Paul mine was blasted early today when all the tunnels of that vein were explored. Superintendent R. M- Hin of the Spring Valley Goal Com pany, who led a party of rescuers in to this level. announced that no fur ther attention win be paid to this level until the rescuers can be assured that no miners are alive in the second level. Hin and his men waded all through the four tunnels of the lowest level and found no signs of life. They re- orted that they saw numerous dead bodies but made no effort to bring them uD.
 The old fire, which had been thought extinguished a dozen times since 1t started in the mine ten days ago, broke out enew in the second level and now threatens the main shaft of the mine The rescuers who had penetrated the lowest vein had narrow escape They had just returned from their hard trip dead bodies have been brought to the surface since the 35 found yesterday were removed. Some of these were stiH warm when brought up and Cor oner Mnlm last night expressed the be- lief that they had not been dead many hours when found This Is disputed by other physicians who. think the warmth Of the bodies might have re- suited from the high temperature in the interior of the mine
 Severtheless 1t is certain that the 57 men were alive until the latter part of last week anyway Some of the bod les were found in a sitting posture. others were lying flat on their Aces and there were evidences that the men had walled themselves in and had per ished when they cam eout to seek food and water
 Evidences of the struggle the miners made for life were plainly visible. They had torn timbers from the sides Of the tunnel and placed them on their picks where they had turned them like fans in the hope of getting just enough oxygen to maintain life The twenty men who were taken alive from the mine last Saturday do not believe there are any more living men in the tun- nels.
 "They will not find another livine soul in that mine" said Walter Waite a survivor, today. We saved .oul lives only by reason of our scientific knowledge of air currents and poiDn- ous vapor B.
