RESCUERS.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright
London, Aug. 28. Fourteen colliers have been entombed at Darishbristlc, Fifeshire, owing to a subsidence at Moorland, beneath which they were working.
Five of the entombed miners at Dombrestle wore rescued alive. A fresh subsidence interferes with the rescue work, and also entombed two rescuers. It is feared that four rescuers, who originally went into the workings, have perished.
