Of living death. rescue forces today
secured every recess of the mine in
the faint hope that others Of the

Wade. alive by a caprice OF fate
after being numbered among the 1876
victims of Saturdays explosion, was
found, speechless from exhaustion
and terror. in a far corner Of the
mine, where eddying cross currents
and fresh air had warded off poison
gas for six days.
Rushed to an emergency hospital,
he was 1ound to have suffered little
from his ordeal, and physicians said
If his weakened body Il able to ward
off pneumonia, he will so N be able
to return to his wife and three chill
dren.
One other man was rescued alive
after so hours in the mine.
Wade wandered among the bodies
of the other victims, eating the food
in their dinner buckets, and for the
past few days apparently was in a
state of coma--moving mechanic
ally, almost by miracle striking cur
rents OF fresh air instead of gas
which snuffed out the lives of the
