Just about the time her husband
lost control of his automobile near

car skidded toward the fence on one
side of the road and in righting it the
driver rammed it across the road into
the fence on the other side. The wo-
men who were killed became excited
and jumped out. They are: Miss
Susan Bussman, 50 Miss Sophia Buss-
man, 45 and Miss Elise Frischmuth,

the Eberle family, the Misses Esther
and Emma are in a hospital in a criti-
cal condition. The father escaped
uninjured.

have been a bridesmaid. Last eve
ming Mrs. Eberle decided to go home

Washington Authorities. How
ever, Do Not Consider
Situation Critical
MORE NOTES ARE LIKELY
Berlin Message Permits Fur
ther Negotiations to Be
Carried On

Washington, Oct. 4. Although
Germans new note of the Arabic case
is not entirely satisfactory to the
United States, the situation is not con-
sidered critical at this time. This was
stated to-day on high official author
ity.
The view held by President Wilson
and State Department officials on the
note handed to Secretary Lansing in
New York Saturday by Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador, is
that 1t was not specific enough on the
points insisted on by the President.
These are a disavowal of the sinking,
assurances that the act would not be
repeated, and proper reparation.
Careful reading of the not deliver
ed by the German ambassador has
convinced administration officials that
further negotiations on the question
are possible and that there is still rea-
son to hope that Germany will in the
end accede to the wishes of the United
States. The note will not be answered
formally Immediately, but Secretary
Lansing at a conference later this week
with the German ambassador will in
form him of the points the United
State wants celared up. After the
conference the ambassador is expected
to communicate again to his govern
ment the views of the United States.
Germanys position now, however,
more nearly approaches the stand of
the United States than it did on the
previous note on the same question. 1t
is understood thta the notes give sat
isfactory assurance that Americans
travelling on unarmed liners will not
be endangered by submarine attack in
the future but a satisfactory disavowal
of the sinking of the Arabic is not
given

RESCUED MINERS
IN GOOD HEALTH
Nine Men Taken From Mine
Tomb May Be Home in
Few Days
BEING FED ON LIQUIDS
Fact That Accident Occurred
in Morning Responsible For
Men Being Alive
BEING FED ON LIQUIDS

Pottsville. Pa, Oct. 4.-The six men
and three boys who were rescued Sun
day afternoon after having been inn
prisoned for over six days in the No. II
mine of the Lehigh Coal and Navi-
cation Company at Coaldale were in
elegant shape this morning and all
arc expected to be able to go to their
homes in a few days.
They slept well last night and did
not awaken until late this morning.
They are being fed entirely on liquids
and sparingly at that. Permission was
given their families to come and see
them to-day for short time.
The fact that the accident occurred
in the morning, rather than in the
afternoon, is given as the greatest rea-
son why the men were rescued alive
Their dinner pals were full in the
morning and with this supply of food
they were able to get sufficient nour-
ishment for four of the six days, the
last two days of their imprisonment
being spent without food of any kind.

No official at the Pennsylvania Steel

stories concerning the Bethlehem
Pennsylvania merger under Schwab.
Philadelphia, Oct. 4.-Charles M.
Schwab, president of the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation, has bought abso-
lutte control of the Pennsylvania Steel
Company from the Pennsylvania Rail-
road through the latter's ownership
of the Pennsylvania Company which
holds very large majority of the
Pennsylvania Steel shares.
Public announcement of the closing
of the deal will probably be made early
this week, perhaps late to-day after a
special meeting of the executive COM
mittee or of the full Board of Directors
of the Pennsylvania Railroad. The
transaction has been worked out in all
its details, and should there be any
delay in issuing complete statement
of the deal, it will be because all of the
directors cannot be assembled on such
short notice.
The negotiations between Schwab
and Edward I. Stotesbury, represent
ing the Pennsylvania Steel Company,
and Henry Tatnall, representing the
Pennsylvania Railroad, were carried
on at Broad Street Station, on Friday.
The best information then was that
the deal had been put through. but 1t
