 "Nearly 90 coffins and mummics found in new tomb" RoWc's cable gram said "Onc coffin contains mummy covered with head net work over which is a golden flying scarab and a gilded mask. Another coffin dates from the twelfth dynasty, about 2,000 E, C., and is covered with texts. Biggest find ever made here. Now opening other great tombs."
 EoWe's cablcd dispatch said the deep pit where the collins and mum mics were found apparently was q cache where they were stord. Eight chambers, five Of which were piled ceiling high with collins, radiate from the bottom of the pit, Rowe said.
 Many rare amulcts, pendants and great quantities of beads also were discovered and Rowe reported that he had established a day and night guard over the pit until the collins and mummieS are removed
