RESCUE: OF
.ENTOMBED
NEAR, HOPE
Company Officials Believe
They viii Reach Miners
by s Tonight.
NEW SIGNAL ATTEMPTED
Railroad TeIegrapher Low
cred Into Shaft.

BU CHitfu Press
IRONWOOD. Mich, Sept. 2S.-Of.
1cials of the Oliver Mining Company
announced today that they hope to
reach the forty-three entombed men
in the G.. Pabst iron mine by p. m.
Conquest of the remaining wall of
rock, which is resisting the drills,
will reveal whether any of the men
have survived the horror Of ninety
six hours in the underground prison
with no food, scant illumination and
an uncertain supply of water.
Calculations at noon indicated thar
within q few hours the drills will
break through to the eighth level
near where the miners are believed
entombed.
Renewed attempts were made to
communicate with the miners.
A railroad telegraph operator was
lowered into the main entrance OF
the mine to try to establish contact
with the men by Morse code. He
tapped IN the pipe on which signals
were heard Monday, but could
obtain no response.
Might Be SOS.
The attempt was made after 1t
was pointed out that If properly
spaced, the eight taps heard by one
of the miners would have signaled
SOS" the universal call for
distress.
The tappings were heard by Fred
Moki, who successfully wormed his
way far down into the workings and
tapped an ircn pipe which leads into
the eighth level, where the men are
believed to be trapped.
1t was believed today that the
miners have plenty of light, for a
mine foreman recalled that he had
left five gallon /can Of kerosine
on the Eighth level just before the
cavein.
Four plans of rescue are being
worked out: Workers are diggine
and blasting through down the main
shaft, while another crew has oh
'ained access to the thirteenth level
through adjoining shafts and are
tunneling upward. Another group
is drilling a three-inch hole to tho
eighth level through which theN
hope to communicate with the miners
they also hope to pass food tablets
down this tube to the trapped men.
The fourth group is clearing up the
cave-in at the twenty first level.
Rescue work Is proceeding slow
ly because the shafts of the mine
must be walled up after each exca-
vation to prevent another cave-in.
Mine officials report that although
the prisoners are naturally under
going hardships, their prison Is spa
cious enough to hold all Of them
without discomfort; that there are
plenty of air pockets handy, and that
water undoubtedly seeps through to
allay their thirst.
