TACT, ETC ITT MTCDPCmP MATTJ TKTBTTN'E MFPFORf), OHEOON, AVEDN EST) A Y, A IT(1 TTKT Sti,' 1922 WORKING STILL 10 SAVE LIVES HE Dins JACKSON, Cal., Aug. 30. One hundred tent ot earth this morning snparated the rescue pnrty workliiK in the underground depths of the Kennody mine from the entrance to the 4 800 foot level In the Argonaut mine, where it is believed ut leust a portion of the 43 men who huvc been entombed in the burning mine since midnight Sunday are trapped. Remarkable headway has been ' made within the past 24 hours in the wtrk of attempting to cut through from tho Kennedy mine. Over iuu feet of loose rock have been cleared uway by tho rescue party, and this morning with hut 100 feet yet to bo, It is expected tho lower level of the Argonaut will bo reached some' time during tho duy or night. fh a statement to newspaper men this morning Time Keeper (ioorgo M. Downing and Underground Foreman fit..' Clair of tho Kennedy mine said that everything depends on the un known chttrucler of the rock ahead. If hard surfaces are encountered, the work of the rescuers will be delayed. If the same character of loose rock In which the rescuers have been fe verishly working for the past 24 hours lies ahead, the Argonaut will be entered during tho day. . One Hope ltcmuliiH The rescuers are working In six hour shirts, 10 men to a shift, and uru cutting through tho 3000 foot level of the Kenedy mine. This will tap tho 4K00 foot or low eat level of tho Argonaut. "Practically our only hope," said Downing, "lies in finding tho mon In air pnckots In the lower levels formed by bulkheadlng the entrances to drlftB, to prevent gus fumes from the burning mine from reaching them. "If tho men had the strength and presence of mind to bulkhead them selves In they could Hve for several (lavs and we may find them ullve." Ernest Miller, one of the entombed miners, accomplished a similar feat in Uiitto, Mont., somo years ago. when ho saved himself and 25 com panions from death through sheer courage and presence of mind. In the Butte horror, Miller couselled with his comrades and thoy bravely set -to work, walling themselves In. chinking the cracks with mud and ef fectively cutting off tho gus fumes. On the fourth day roscuers- reached them. . Conditions at tho Bceno of the Ar gonaut disaster appeared much more cheerful this morning as the third day of BiispenBe dnwned. It is believ ed that the fire In the main Bhnft of tho Argonaut has been checked. Gns fumes have censed to Issue from the Muldcon air shaft and rescue pur- t'os have descended this shaft, bop ing to gain entrance to the main workings of the Argonaut below tho po'nt where the flame- shave been ruglng.
