Governor Is Ready to Send State Troops to Sullivan

BUDDIES RISK LIVES TO SEARCH MINE FOR FRIENDS (Continued From Page 1) forbidden entrance until machinery could be repaired. They reentered the shaft at midnight and stayed for two hours, but they were unable to recover any bodies. Another shift went into the mine at 3 a. m. 0. C. Thomas, chief weighman, who stood at the entrance of the 294-foot shaft identifying the crumpled bodies as they were brought to the surface, said that if all the men were in the positions assigned them, twenty-one would be affected by the “squeeze” and fourteen would be scattered in other parts of the mine, making the recovery of the latter bodies more likly. Dirt Falls Delay Although Inspector Wilton refused to comment on any possible “squeeze,” he did report numerous rock, slate and dirt falls which delayed rescuers in reaching the bodies.

It took two hours, according to Wilton, to re-route the rescuers in their "crawl” through the mine. The men are forced literally -to push air before them. As they advance they "battlsh up” cross entries to keep the air from crossing over, thus forcing it ahead of them. This work is slow and tedious. Two rescue teams of six men each are relieved every two hours by fresh teams. | The rain added to the misery of relatives of the dead, who refused to retire from their posts as men worked on throughout the night. Many of these relatives were aged women with children, who grouped about the mine shaft every time the cage was hoisted—hoping against hope that a husband, father or son had been brought out alive. Eighty-Four Escape One hundred and thirty-five men went into the mine to work at 7 o’clock Friday morning. The explosion occurred shortly before noon. Eighty-four men, many bleeding at the nose and black in the face, crawled up the air shaft within a half-hour after the explosion. Medical attention was needed for these men. Bleeding of the nose was caused by the men sticking two fingers up their noses as far as possible to keep out the gas that threatened them as they slowly climbed the ladder, falling exhausted to the ground one at a time. The first injured man brought to the top was Emery Davidson. He received serious injuries when caught by falling slate near the front of the mine. He is resting well in a local hospital and will probably recover. John Slieder, mine engi leer, was still at his post thin morning operating the levers which send the cage into-Jthe mine and back to the surface. Slieder has been asked to be relieved four times. He grimly refuses to move from his station. “I sent them into the mine; I am going to hoist every one of them to the ttp before I quit.” These were his only remarks. Sandwiches and hot coffee were served throughout the night to rescue workers, volunteers and bystanders. Bed Cross on Scene A temporary Red Cross barracks served aa an o..nergency hospital for fainting women, worn-out mothers, wives and fathers and sleepy children. The blast was not heard above the ground. Check-weighman Thomas, who was on top of the 130-foot tipple, said he heard a sizzling noise and then a violent gust of air from the cage-way struck the top of the tipple, rocking it and shattering tin from the siding. Russell Stewart, fire boss, entered the qilne after the explosion. Equipped with only a safety lamp he braved the dangers of the “after damp” in order to get lined up on where his ipen were. Stewart remained in the mine four hours. He was hoisted to the top on a stretcher. Physicians revived him. Five minutes later Steve Williams,

one of the eighty-four who escaped from the air shaft, fell to the ground bleeding fiercely and choking violently. He was again on his way into the mine to rescue, if possible, his less fortunate fellow workers in a short time. Others followed him. Every Precaution Every rescuer going into the mine this morning was' thoroughly searched by inspectors for matches and other substances which might ignite. A man’s word that he had nothing was not accepted by inspectors who were using every precaution to protect those seeking to bring out the bodies. Men going down into the mine now do not know whether they will come out alive. Slate falls, gas, af-ter-damp 'and possible explosions now endanger the life of every rescue worker. • An explosion in the mine now, according to Wilton, would practically demolish- the remaining three-quar-ter section of the mine, wreck the tipple and mine buildings, possibly killing and Injuring scores of onlooker*. The mouth of the mine is a typical base hospital. Cots, some taken from stores, some roughly made from sacks and poles, are neatly stackeo near the cage. Metal boxes of first aid equipment are kept handy with physicians In attendance. Six ambulances are kept backed up to the mine. When a body is brought from the mine it is covered by a dark cloth It is only raised high enough for the check weighman to identify the victim by tag. Identification otherwise would be practically impossible due to the mangled conditions. The body is th'n loaded into an ambulance and rushed through the crowds to the city Where relatives and friends are allowed to look on while the body is embalmed. Worst In History The disaster, the worst in the history of the coal mining industry in Indiana, was caused by a spark from an electric motor igniting a pocket of gas, mine officials said. Bodies of some of the victims were terribly mangled and burned by the explosion, making identification difficult. Two men died in the arms of rescuers as they were.being carried from the death trap. One man was found with every bone in his body crushed. He had been blown nearly one hundred feet down a passageway by the terrific force of the blast. Another man’s leg dropped practically off as he was lifted from a corner of one of the pockets of the mine. The mine had been in operation nearly two years.

temperatures were low and snow deficient. Heavy June rains were favorable for hay, which yielded better than the average. Fruits were greatly damaged bV spring frosts. Quality of all crops, except corn, was good. Hay, oats and barley were somewhat damaged by rain, but aside from discoloration were of unusually high grade. Prices of grains were much higher Dec. 1 than a year ago. but the earlier marketing of wheat and rye and the smaller corn crop minimized the advantage to growers from these advances. Oats is the only crop which probably will net producers materially greater returns than last year. The outlook for next year is brighter, due to higher prices; but the 1924 season shows little or no improvement over 1923 returns to farmers, the report says.
