    Rescuers Hope
to Save Miners
* 22 of 33 Entombed Vk orkmen
Still Missing; 11 Found
Dead F rom Explosion.
Harraeksvllle, W. Va„ March 21.—
'! wen ty-four rescue workers searching
f r the remaining miners entombed
in tiie Bethlehem Mines corporation
mine here were overcome by poison
ous gases in the mine, according to
a statement Issued at noon.
I hose overcome in the mine were
revived when hauled to the surfuce.
No additional bodies have been found
since the nine reported this morning.
Fairmont, W. Va., March 21.—Res
cue work at the wrecked shaft of
mine No. 41 of the Bethlehem Mines
corporation at Harraeksvllle was
speeded up this morning in the hoi*
tiiat 22 of the 33 mine workmen im
prisoned l>y an explosion last Tues
day might still be alive. Eleven
bodies have been found.
William Berry, a rescue foreman
for the mines' organization, upon
emerging from the shaft at 3 a. m.
said he had lienetrated one of its
urine for 400 feet and found that the
force of the blast had not readied
that far.
It is believed that 22 of tlie Im
prisoned miners are in that srm, and
since all are seasoned mine workers.
Berry believed, he said, that they
might have escaped the blast and bar
ricaded themselves against gas and
other dangers which followed.
However, William Riggtemau, a vet
cran inspector for the West Virginia
department of mines, entered the
^ shaft after ‘Berry's announeement and
penetrated it, he said, for 2,000 feet.
He expressed doubt upon emerging
that any of the imprisoned men still
live.
Mine oficials said today that a re
eher-k revealed that only 33 mine
workers were caught in the blast and
not 34 as was at first believed.
Conversation Annoys
Judge; Postpones
Case a Week
Mm, T.ouis Paris of IfiOfi Bake
street was accompanied by friends
when she appeared III District
Judge Day's court Friday afternoon
to be heard in a divorce matter.
Another case was in progress and
Mrs. Parish and her friend seated
themselves to await their turn.
They began whiling away the time
by conversing right merrily, but
the conversation disturbed the
judge, and he dispatched Bailiff
Brown to warn them against it.
Bailiff Brown is small of stature
and failed to impress them, for
they ke*it on in their best sewdng
circle style. Then Judge Day
rapped on his desk.
"I’ll give you people just a week
to learn how to behave in court,"
he announced with emphasis. “If
you want me to hear your case
come back next week. I'll not
hear it today.”
