our fingers and then waited for the SLOW
seepags of the water into them. IL
kept us busy, but we always were fe-
verish with thirst. When little water
filed into a hole there wasn't man

men drink"
The story of a desperate fight waged
in the depths of the mine by one rae
tion of twenty-one entombed miners
against another over the scant water
supply was told today by lno Anto-
niezo one of the rescued men.
according to Antoniezo's account the
saving of the sick men was accom-
plished only after one group, headed by
a brawny miner whose name all refused
to divulge, had been overpowered by
the others Bitter personalities were
exchanged. blows were struck and
finally knives were drawn.
There were three sick men-Franco
Zannaraini. Daniel Walowczak and
George Eddy. A group headed by Clel-
land and Waite insisted that the sick
men should have the first call on the
water supply.
At least one other man, physically
stronger than the others, tried TO take
the water from the sick.
1--WE found some one was pushing
Walowezak the weakest of the party.
away from the water and stealing it,
said Antoniezo. "He was too weak to
resist. After he told us a secret guard
was established over him and We soon
found the man who was stealing the
water. We gave him a bad beating and
he resisted finally drawing a knife.
We knocked him down with an ak helve
and dragged him into a corner. After
that we had no trouble.
1.-The last two days the feeling of re-
bellion died out and we all became
friends again"
