So dense was the smoke and SO

Cut Gives Way.
SCORE BURIED IN AVALANCHE
Hundreds of Tons Crash Through
Roof-Victims Trapped by Fatal
Landslide-Gang Of go at Work
When Crash Came.

Jersey City. = Just twenty-four
hours before it was to have been
wrecked deliberately, the western
mouth of the old Bergen tunnel of
the Erie railroad in Jersey City caved
in, and under hundreds Of tons of
rock that crashed down onto the
abandoned tracks nine men were
crushed to death, two others were SO
injured they died within a few hours
and ten received serious hurts.
George Bloss, foreman Of the gang
caught In the cave-in, was arrested
ON a charge of criminal negligence
and manslaughter. He is in the city
hospital with both legs crushed. The
dead are:
John Bowman, nineteen years old;
Louis Martin, forty-five; John Blass,
thirty, Hazleton, Pa; Edward Cole
man, William Hallisey, twenty-eight;
James Feeney, fifty; Fred Kubo, thir-
ty; Vincenzo Colemzono, ffty-one;
Angelo Treano, forty; unidentified
man carrying ~timekeeper's check No.
1922, unidentified man carrying
timekeeper's check No. 1,745.
The new cut of the Erie, paralleling
the old tunnel, was finished and its
use by passenger trains begun only
about a month ago, while the tunnel
was used only for freight traffic. 1t
is the purpose of the Erie to run four
tracks through the new cut, and
| gangs were at work at both ends of
the tunnel, where 1t curves toward
the new cut, tearing it out for about
the curves and make room for the
fourth track in the new cut.
1t was the gang on the day shift
at the west portal that was caught
by the cave-in. William Hallisay,
| one of the men killed, had been out
Of work for several months and had
| got his first work that morning on
| the Erie tunnel. A negro who applied
| for work was more fortunate. He
| was told to take off his coat and pitch
in, but when he saw the nature of
| the ground he refused the job.
Most of the men, however, had been
on the job of the new cut, working
for the Willard Construction company
of Philadelphia, and had been
switched over by them to the work
| of tearing out the old tunnel when the
| new cut was finished. They wore
| badges of the Willard company, and
| most of the dead and injured had
| time checks and pay checks of the
Willard company in their pockets.
| They were chiefly rock drillers and
their helpers.

WIRELESS MESSAGES ANCIENT
Natives of Africa Communicate Over

johannesburg, La.-Many strange
tribes dwell in the interior of Africa

ways. One tribe, the Batetela, has
long used a method of sending com

lagos that is unique and we'll worth
consideration. A wooden drum is
used and the wireless" message can
be picked up, or heard, even miles
away. 1t is amazing. The drum used
by the Batetela for sending messages
In this manner is first cut out from
one large solid piece Of hard wood.
It's shape, as may be seen in the illus
tration, is quite peculiar and must
require considerable skill in the fash
toning, when one considers the lack
of proper tools among these tribes.
Still more difficult is the finishing OF
the drums. interior, for it has to be
followed out and all the work is done
through the long narrow opening
which shows at the top. The shape
