CAVt-IN FOLLOWS CAVE-IN
ALL HOPE OF REACHING MEN,
If STILL ALIVE, DELAYED
SEVERAL DAYS
MAY STARVE IN MEANTIME
HEROIC VOLUNTEERS RISK LIVES
TO EXPLORE DANGEROUS
GALLERIES

Cherry, H., Nov. pa fire in the
second gallery of the st. Paul mine
here resulted today in a heavy cav
ing in of earth, blocking the rescue
work to the east in this section
thought to be the best place for
finding additional survivors. The
passage is now SO badly blocked that
it will be several days before it is
possible to make entrance. In the
meantime. the men, if alive, may
starve to death.
This news spread gloom throughout
the camp. which was relieved only
by the better prospects OF exploring
the bottom shafts, where it is hoped
some survivors may be found.
The blockade in the east entry is
near the main shaft. One cave in is
followed by another and the lives
of the rescuers are constantly en-
dangered. Attempts to remove the
debris have ceased and efforts haze
been begun to dig new passage
through solid earth around the fire
and piles of soft earth.
After experiencing all the terrors
of his long Imprisonment and the joy
of being brought out alive to the sur
face, David Hollefchek, one of the
twenty survivors rescued Saturday,
died this morning of general exhaus-
tion.
