Water Continues Steadily to
Recede From Streets and
Traffic II Resumed.

Paris, Feb. s.--rhe river Seine fell
steadily today, the recession being at
the rate Of about three-fourths of an
inch an hour. The waters also are re-
treating from the streets. More tram
ways are in operation as are the new
sections OF the subway.
Streets that had been closed to traf-
fic were. in many instances reopened
and in the heart of the city things re-
sumed q more normal appearance.
In the. outskirts and In the inundated
districts above and below the city the
greatest distress still prevailed, despite
the magnificent efforts toward relief
and the prodigal distribution OF food
supplies. Hundreds of persons are found
on h verge OF starvation and thous-
!ands who lost everything must be aided
for months.
It 10 estimated that more than .
quarter of a million persons have been
affected by the foods. Freezing tenn
perature adds to the misery of the un-
~fortunates.
The Seine at moor had dropped q
little more than three feet from its
crest.

OPENED AT LAST
FINAL Effort Win Be Made
to Recover Bodies Of
Explosion Horror.

Cherry. H., Feb. 3.-Early today state
mine inspectors, mine managers ana q
score of volunteer helpers prepared for
the opening Of the st. Paul mine with
q view to clearing the clogged galleries
and recovering nearly 200 bodies of
miners who we're killed by the IRE Of
November 13. The work at hrst pro-
ceeded slowly.
w. w. Taylor, manager of the st.
Paul Mining company; stayed in La
Sale last night and came over to Cher
ry today In the special car that brought
the University Of Illinois experts.
Richard Newsam, president of h state
mining board, found that several minor
details OF preparation had to be per-
fected before 1t would be safe to re-.
move the concrete and steel cap from
the entrance Of the main shaft.
The trap door Of the seal over the
main shaft was broker open, and State
Mine Inspector Thomas Moses, OF DAN
vile, and Expert Webb, Of the Univer-
sity of Illinois, were soon ready to de-
scend.
Later the oxygen helmet explorers
descended to the second level. $50 feet
under ground, and returned safely. The
temperature proved satisfactory and
the whole lid was torn of preparatory
to entering the levels. 1t Is improbable
that n bodies will be found today.
