NO HOPE FOR 60 BURIED MINING MEN Eight Bodies Recovered Fear After-Damp Fatal to Others coal (;li:x. x. c, may , tlH. (A.r.) The glimmer of hope that somo of' the throe scon? or more miners entombed In the Carolina Coal ' company mine curly yesterday might be rescued alive. . wavered and ' went out eurly today in tho hearts of rescue workers who through the night had labored . in the recesses ot the mine. After-damp, dread enemy of the miners, claimed their lives, if they survived the series of explosions which closed their escape to the surface, rescue workers t declared. Hut despite this belief, which gained headway through tho night,' they labored no lesH fuithfully in - the effort to reach their Imprisoned comrades of yesterday. Anxious Itelutives Throughout the night, hundreds of men, women and children, rela tives of the entombed men, strained against the barrier ropes surround ing the dusky entrance to the mine. '." . For hours after the , disaster, hope was entertained that tbo im prisoned men might still live. This hope was nurtured by, the report that frosh air had Iwen encountered by workers as they tolled down ward seeking the entombed men. -' Hope Abandoned As the cable drew Its creaking burden Into the outer .darkness, time after ; time, and fresh crews of rescuers replaced tired workers until the 1S00 foot level had been reached. Without bringing evidence of the imprisoned men, the belief grew that after-dump had claimed as Its toll the lives which might have survived the. explosions. Early today eight bodies repre sented the sole fruit of the labor of rescuo workers. Mlifo officials expressed the opinion that between 50 and 05 men still were buried beneath tho 1500 foot level. Arrival ot a mine rescue car from West Virginia, whence it was ordered by the bureau of mines to day, was expected to facilitate the work of rescue. Frank Way Is Bound Over to 'Grand Jury Jay H.
