PeUr Horst was killed outright. being crushed beneath falling brick and Iron. Sanluel Kteffen is buried under the ruins, and desperate efforts are be- int; made to save him, but the chances of rescue are slight.

The loss of the Marinette and Menomi nee Paper company will be more than IW.WO. The air nb( ut the mills is so impregnated with sulphur that it is al most impossible to continue the rescue work.
