Contact Made Early Sunday Definite contact with the im- prisoned men was established shu:tly after midnight by tapping signals on the pipe driven through the five-inch diamond drill hole to the level where they were caught. “Hello," the rescue miners shout- ed down the communication pipe. "Hello," came back the faint voice of Alfred Scadding. He told the miners at the surface all three men were alive and well. Mrs. Robertson and Mrs. Magill, almost too overcome with joy to speak. talked briefly with the men in the underground cavern. "Hello, Ijlcrm, hello," Mrs. Magill said, tears in her eyes. Mrs. Robertson had her turn. calling down the line: “Eddie, Eddie, you there?" Receiving an answer, in the form of a. question as to how she was, she said “Al- right_ Keep up your courage." Turning to the dirt-covered min- ers, she caused them to shuffle their feet and look embarrassed as she said, "Oh, men, you are won- dcrfu1." Had Given Up All lldpe Smiling through her tears, Mrs. Magill added: "Dcsn‘t it seem too wonderful to be true?" Mrs. Rob- ertson said shc had given up all hope just the night. before. "We can keep them alive for six montlm if necessary," W. H. Han- ningan, a member of the crew who arrived here from the McIntyre Mine in Porcupine, 0nt., assured the two women. As Mrs. Robertson and Mrs. Ma- giil broke down and wept with joy. advice of a physician was sought immediately as to what supplies should be lowered to the three men. Word was sent down the line by officials directing the rcscuc. “Alf, Herb, Dr. Robertson. Thank God you are safe. Write on the re- verse side of this sheet.

Bcadding said the three had not. heard any blasting operations be- ing carried on by the men on the surface.

For a tense few hours there had been no word from below, but when a steam whistle was dropped down dim voices were heard. Then they became audible, and Dr. Robertson was caning for medical supplies to counteract. ailments resulting from a long period without food and water. To get to the pipe-line. they had to go through water that would mean pneumonia to the eabened men. and after obtaining the first food and medical supplies, the doc- for told anxious rescue workers above not to summon them un- necessarily because of that danger. "Herman B. Magill, a war veteran and not in good physical condition when he entered the mine last Sunday night on a tour of inspec- tion, was already ill.
