Questioned apeclflrally. Miller
aald te time he wanted to ao In
to the cave on Wednesday nlKht
he wag prevented from ddlnjr ho.
He wag kept out. he Maid, by Cap
tain Topmiller and a iterxeant act
InK for the owner of the farm on
which the cave lx located.
Asked about the opposing fac
tions. Miller said:
"It seemed to me that the local
boyg were very anxious to get Col
lins out without the help of out
siders. I wag told that a party
which came from Louisville were
kept out at the Insistence of Ger
ald. Miller was asked why he came
to Cave City and answered that
he was assigned to the story. He
had, he said, no Interest In the af
fair except to get the atory.
Tha witness said he had been I proKresg with little timbering nec-
waa heavy rock slabg. The task of
mlnera and their volunteer helpers
Is an engineering feat of conclder
able skill and gruelling atrugglea,
a race against time with few tools
at hand. In half an hour shifts of
three, the work goes on every min- (
ute. except for the necessary In-,
terruptlons, while sections of cas
ing are lowered into place to
brace the crumbling walls againat
a cave-in.
The bottom of the six font
square shaft is now constantly
saturated with water, nut more
boulders are belog encountered so
that- the diggers do not sink very
deeply into the muck.
The first timbers for the shnft
were hewed from logs felled at the
scene, by men who knew little
about mining, but were used to the
axe. Men more expert in timber
ing shafts soon came, and around
the 25 foot level a limestone ledge
was encountered which wag seized
upon as support for the heavy
timbering solving one troublesome
problem.
Some time tomorrow officials
expect to strike the limestone
strata then they hope for rapid
'Amazes Medical World

Elizabeth, "Princess fi Rldder," known Incognito to New Yorks
aj Mr. Elsie Walter, baa been taxed $10,000 by a Jury there for th
carnage dona Mrs. Milly Hutton. of New Rochella, N. Y, by the then
ot the affections of her husband. Edward J. Hutton, a wealthy silk
manufacturer. The Princess was not In court. It Is reported she had
pone back to Europe, where she owns valuable property bequeathed to
tar by D. B. M. de Rldder, tamoui art collector.
Twenty-three persons were Injured, most of them women and
children, when this heavy passenger coach of the 1'aterson, Passaic,
Jersey ally and tlouokcn branch of the 1'ubllc Service Corporation of
New Jersey yumped from a viaduct twenty-five feet above the West
Shore and Erie Railroad tracts, betweon Jersey City and lloboken.
By a miracle, none of the passengers were killed.
warned by Gerald not to go into
the cave on Tuesday night, Just be
fore bla last trip. While ha was
waiting for a jack. Gerald called
him aside, he said, anil told him,
"1 know rock and I know caves
and It would be dangerous to go in
there."
"I got the Jack." Miller continu
e, "a small one from Cave City
and took it back and tried it.
Floyd said 1 raised the rock about
eight Inches but that little rocks
slipped under and wedged his foot.
We removed some of the smaller
rocks and Kloyd suggested I bring
In an acetylene torch nnd chip off
some of the bottom ot the largi
rock."
Asked about reports that fond
was found In the passageway, Mil
ler answered:
"There la food scattered all
..long the passago to about mid
way. Also gloves and one blanket.
It looks like persons had started In
and had lost their nerve.
"It was no fun to go In and I am
glad I don't have to go In agnin."
Describing the cave-In Miller
snld he found the passage way
closed tip and could hear other
stuff fulling from the roof.
"At any time were you threaten
ed directly?"
"I was called aside several times
Wednesday night between 6 and
12 o'clock and told It was best for
me to stay out. These warnings
came from older men. among them
local residents whom 1 regarded
as my friends. Dr. Kunkhouser al
so told me that provincialism was
my worst enemy and advised me
to try to get in at this time.
"Mr. Gerald was preparing to go
In. I didn't ask him to let me go
In nnd ho did not ask mn to go
with him. I hoard him say It was
dangerous In the passage and he
did not want anyone else to go In
and bungle up the Job."
Miller explained that the warn
ings he received were not from
enemlca but from older men of
the community whom he believed
were bringing him the warning as
an act of friendship. He said he
did not' know the names of these
men. He was asked to see if any
of them were in the room. He was
unable to recognizo any of them.
After his examination was com
pleted Miller was requested by the
coure to endeavor to ascertain the
Identity of the men who had given
him warnings so that they nright
bo summoned before the bonrd.
II. G. Klshbaek. a farmer two
miles east of Cave City was the
second witness. He said he went
to tha cave Tuesday evening and
went to Collins and had his hand
on the imprisoned man. There
was considerable excitement when
he reached the cavern, tho witness
said. When ho wanted to go In
with the rescue party, headed by
Johnnie Gerald the lalter warned
him 1t was very dangerous nnd
said: "You want to consider what
you are doing because when you
go down there you may not tome
out," Kishback said.
"Gerald did not insist that I go
nlong with the crowd so I waited
until I got an opportunity to get
In. Collins wns conscious and In
his right mind at tho time 1 saw
hi in."
I.oriSVII.l.K. Ky.. Feb. 10.
One of the most complete pictures
of the early efforts to release
Floyd Collins from the Sand Cave
trap, the story of Johnnie Gerald's
ettorts to dig him out, was pub
lished today In a copyrighted
siatement in the Courier jmirnnl.
Many of those helping Gerald In
the first futile efforts corroborated
his statements and l.ee Collins, fa
ther of the imprisoned man vigor
ously denied rumors once cur
rent that there had been feeling
betwtM-n Floyd and Gerald.
Gerald's story quoted Floyd Col
lins that ho had slid down into
the tunnel, the same way the res
cuers first tried to reach him and
tree h;a foot, contradicting earlier
erslons that he was climbing out
of a huge cavern Into bis present
position when he was caught by a
rock fall. .
The reason for his warning by
I state officials to slay away from
I the cave. Gerald says, .was his In
sistence that ho could go down the
I old tunnel and clear It out again
! In an endeavor to roach Collins by
(the original method ot rescue, lie
had cleared away two such cave
1 ins. he said, with Homer Collins.
(Floyd's brother, and was ready to(
try again.
G. rsld s sto y mentioned only j
I briefly Lieutenant Ilurlon ot the
j Louisville fire department and
Wlllt.im II. Miller, the little Ixul
' villn Courier Journal reporter, who1
worked so hard to loosen the. rock
! on Collins' foot. The narrative
j was confined to Oerald'e personal
share lu the rescue work.
j CAVK CITY, Ky, Feb. 10 The
heroes of the Collins rescue, the
volunteers who are driving the
shall toward his underground pris
on today were more than 33 feet
down, after five davs of ceaseless
essary to protect the diggers from
the same fate as Collins.
CAVE CITY. Ky., Feb. 10. A
depth estimated at more than 38
feet had been readied In the
shaft at Sand Cave at 10:15 today.
Rescuers continued their efforts
to reach the cave prisoner but
spectators had largely moved to
Cave City where the preliminary
sessions of the military court of
Inquiry were being conducted.
The construction of the home
made boom crane is another en
gineer from the Louisville gas
tings were hammered out at the
blacksmith shop of the cave camp
and carefully selected there and
were felled and hewn Into shape.
A gasoline engine hoist and drum
was anchored some 40 feet from
the shaft and another problem
was solved. '
After the first timbers had
been placed and three feet or so
of the shaft dug out, the question
ot deep shnft timbering arose.
Albert Marshall, of Danville,
Ky., and Kdwarrl Ilrenner, of
Cincinnati, arrived and related
their experience In the Appalach
ian coal fields. N. K. Ford, en
gineer rrom the Louisville gas
and electric company, formed the
third member of the timbering
shift, which has been working
almost constantly since Friday,
refusing to let others less experi
enced take their places.

JAPANESE OF HAWAII
PREFER CHILDREN TO
BECOME AMERICANS'
HONOLULU. Feb. 7. Not one
of the two-score children born to
Japanese parents In Hawaii since
'ecemuer 1, has made a reserva
tion for the retention of his Jap
anese citizenship under the new
expatriation law which Japan
in effect December 1, according
to Keiichl Yamasaki, Japanese
consul-general for the territory.
The law, seeking to abolish dual
citizenship if such elimination is
desired, provides that all children
born to Japanese parents In the
United States after December 1,
shall be regarded as exclusively
American citizens unless parents.
within 14 days after birth, ex
pressly reserve Japanese citizen
ship for the child through the
Japanese consulate. - Failure to
register Buch reservation automa
tically relinquishes any claim
which the Jupanese government
might have on that child, as in
the case of dual citizenship which
prevailed previously.
Vital Htutistics show that up
wards of 40 children have been
born to Japanese parents Bince
December 1st.
Explaining the workings of the
new law, Consul-General Yama
saki said:
"I am personally urging expa

and urging parents to take ad
vantage of the new law which
aids them In effecting expatria
tion of their children.
"The new law is a measure of
the desire of the Japanese govern
ment to remove objections raised
to the former dual citizenship and
further evidence of my govern
ment's desire to maintain friendly
relations.
VI am only asking Americans
to exercise tolerance and patience
with the Japanese as with other
races to the end that the Jupanese
may be understood better. I be
lieve a better understanding will
remove all of tHe prejudice now
lodged against my people and 1
am confident that Americans In
their hearts mean to be absolute
ly fair and just to them."
Portia's father was
old-fashioned
In the days of Shake9peares famous heroine, buy
ing and selling were contests of wits. In Venice, hag
gling and dickering were the vogue. Along the Rialto,
sharp practice was the rule. Every purchase of silk
or spices was made at the buyer's risk. One had to be
a shrewd judge of values and one's fellows to escape
trickery.
Portia's father a. merchant was used to the
ideas of guess, luck and accident. So much so, indeed,
that it seemed natural to him to entrust the choice of
his daughter's husband to three closed caskets and a
lucky guess !
" ' v -
Nowadays, we do not transact business blindly
nor leave important decisions to chance. It is not
necessary for us to gamble when we buy. Commodi
ties are identified for us by trade-marks. Manufactur
ers go to the advertising columns to tell us about their
products. Merchants describe their merchandise
price, quality and service.
!
By reading advertisements, we get a knowledge
of goods and stores that we can depend on. Adver
tising reduces chance, in buying, to a minimum.
