discovered the accident and eight men,
led by Gustave G. VanDusen, superin-
tendent of construction, made heroic
attempt to save the trapped men, but
we're themselves caught behind heavy
steel doors, which were automatically
locked by the gas pressure. NanDusen
was taken out unconscious, but alive at
$3.50 a. M.
The gas pocket which had all the
power of the big gushers in commercial
fields near here, was struck by the
workmen who were digging with hand
shovels to extend the 10 foot tunnel
shoreward. There was no explosion,
workmen say.
Rescuers believe that most of the en-
tombed workmen are in the second COM
partment behind two heavy steel doors.
Mike Keough, one Of the first TO vol.
unteer with Foreman John johnson to
enter the death hole, came out gasp
ing for breath. He said he recognized
the two bsdies in the first compartment
as those of Superintendent VanDusen
and Harry Hatcher.
"It was about 9 O'Clock when Fore
man johnson telephoned down to the
men in the tunnel who had gone to work
at p. m.," said Keongh. "Gas had
been coming up through the shaft all
day. Then we suspected the worst.
johnson went down The elevtor shaft
accompanied by a fireman. They call
ed for volunteers. Eight responded.
All who entered the tunnel got into
the chamber somehow and could not
get out.
"Then we knew something had hap
pened and we began to blow the whis-
ties"

for Business

Washington, July 25.-That the Bri'
fish blaeylist of American firms was
not published until the acquiesence of
the approval of several large banking
institutions of New York had first been
assured, was the statement made to the
United Press today on good authority.
This fact is considered responsible for
there not being more firms on the list
The bankers took the stand when the
matter was being discussed that only
those houses having a direct trading re-
lation with Germany and whose bust
ness was primarily of military value
10 the German government should be
boycotted.
When the question of the effect of
the blacklist on South American trade
was reached the banks referred to were
convinced that the United States would
profit by the boycott rather than suf.
fer injuries. Many of the blacklisted
firms, the British officials pointed out
