located 200 feet from the tipple. This
structure must be alright and for
nearly an hour it was not working
effectively. Mud was plastered about
the cracks hastily and its operations
continued.
Movable bulkheads were being con-
structed today. These were attached
to fhe front of mine cars and the
rescuers we're going deeper into the
mine.
But they had no hope that a living
miner would be found in the depths
now.
On the cot of honor" at the hospital
rests a youth of twenty-five. His
name is Abe Craig His coolness saved
at least a dozen lives.
There isn't much to tell said
Craig. We went down at o'clock
and entered heading No. 10 on the
left. \ few minutes later there was
a crash l told the boys that meant
a cave-in. and We had better set out.

"Outside there were yells. and one
of our gang shouted TO tell them there
was fresh air in our place. l opened

dragged in others. We revived them.
Wait for Rescuers.
Then / looked out again. All l
could see was bodies. The afterdamp
was rolling through the heading. I
jumped inside and closed the door.
There was nothing to do but wait foS
rescuers.
From 1880 until about 2 o'clock We
stayed in the chamber. Older men
were getting faint. Young Fellows
were holding out pretty well. Nobody
had very much to say. Some OF the

I'VE ran into fallen rock between
the seventh and ninth heading. That
probably was where the explosion
took place.
II had a hunch that if We got to
the sixth heading we would get fresh
air, but you can believe me that the
last hundred yards was something
awful. Coughing and strangling. We
kept on, and finally ran slap bang
into the air. l was dizzy. but I
screamed to the boys Most of them

Resesers Arrive.
Then 1 heard men coming, and I
knew they were rescuers. They got
us out. Only the young men made it.

their lives"
Three times Craig stopped his story.
Each time silent form was brought
in on a stretcher. Physicians said
Craig and all others in the hospital
would recover. A number. it was
added, owed their lives to prompt
treatment given by rescue parties un-
der ground.
Heroic Rescue.
Mike Whalen. a eager, was working
with his coupler, lad named Caven-
dish, at the bottom of the shaft, when
the explosion occurred. Seizing the
boy, Whalen put him on his back and
started hand over hand on a water
pipe for the surface. When almost
half way up some one at the top
started the cage from tho bottom,

jumped to the top Of the cage and
rode with the boy to safety.

REPUBLICANS FACE
QUARREL IN PARTY
Progressives Threaten to
Crack Whip Over Congress.
Harmony Sought.

Some progressive republicans are
coming forward with threats as to
how they propose to crack the whip
after Congress gets back on the job.
Conservative opinion seems to be that
they are not going to stir up half
the row they presume they will. and
that the scant republican majority
rather means that the party will be
held closer together and work more
earnestly-iooking toward the presi-
being served that any group that
kicks over the traces" to endanger
party prospects will be definitely
branded and held strictly accountable
The pressing of several important
tax revision proposals In the new
Sixthy-eighth Congress Is forecast by
some leaders of the progressive" re-
publicans. according to the Associated
Press. 1t Is claimed that they will
have some assistance from the demo-
Gratis. These leaders" said that re-
vision propositions would come from
both the majority and minority sides.
Tax Legislation.
Chief among the tax plans of the
republican "progressives" Is an I'M
post on the undistributed surpluses
of corporations. affecting also stock
dividends Such a tax also is favored
by the democrats In the view of Rep
resentative Oldfield of Arkansas. the
minority whip" and a member of
the ways and means committee. which
deals with revenue matters.
Mr.. Oldtield also expressed the
opinion that the democrats would
favor re-enactment of the excess
profits tax, but in a modified form; !;
increased inheritance taxes on a
graduated scale and the imposition OF
gift tax in an effort to reach those
of wealth seeking to avoid the pay
ment of high surtaxes through gifts
of money to relatives.
These taxes have been opposed
heretofore by administration officers.
who have made it plain that they

which was enacted late last year and
which became generally effective last
January l.
Proponents of the proposed changes
expressed confidence today. however,
that with the change in the House
membership in the new Congress
they would have more than an even
chance of success. progressive" re-
publican leaders in their estimates OF
strength count on almost solid demo-
cratic support for their proposals.
and likewise the democrats look to
the left wing of the majority party
for support for their program.
There seems to be more doubt in
the minds of these leaders about the
situation In the Senate. but they ex-
pressed hope that with an increased
democratic and republican progres-
sive" vote there revision plan could
be put through. They pointed out
that it was the Senate. as now con-
stituted. that upset the original pro-
nosal TO reduce the maximum income
surtax to 80 per cent.
