177 bodies found
in South African
gold mine shaft
Black union accuses industry
of ignoring safety standards
Learn Gold, Silver Scrap Recycling Business. Free in
formation: Recycling, Box 11216 AE, Reno, NV.

EVANDER, South Africa (AP) —
Weary rescue crews on Wednesday
collected the bodies of miners
sprawled along a mile-deep shaft
turned into a deathtrap for at least
177 men by a raging fire.
It was South Africa’s worst gold
mine disaster.
Five miners were still missing and
believed dead after the fire at Kin
ross Gold Mine released lethal
clouds of chemical fumes Tuesday in
the No. 2 shaft where about 2,400
men were working.
Survivors told of being trapped,
unable to breathe, of clouds of
smoke and of their desperation as
they watched their friends fall dead.
“Only about seven of us made it to
the surface,” said Komiti Mmereko,
a black driller with one mining crew.
Officials said 235 of the miners
were hospitalized with burns, inju
ries and chest pains from inhaling
the fumes that filled the mine after a
fire was accidentally started by a
welding machine.
The miners didn’t stand a chance,
according to Dick Grenfell, a 38-
year-old Briton who survived the
fire.
“They just ran into a wall of
smoke and must have dropped like
flies,” he said.
Most of South Africa’s miners are
black and the union representing
black miners called the accident “a
clear indictment of the industry.” A
statement said, “It has required tra
gedy after tragedy and the loss of
many lives before the industry and
government pay attention to safety
standards.”
Most of the bodies were found
along a mile-long horizontal tunnel,
some in groups and some alone —
men who perished as they frantically
sought a way out.
From his bed at the Winkelhaak
Mine Hospital, Bedron Siphoso said,
“The smoke started coming in. Then
the oxygen was gone. I couldn’t
breathe.”
Trucks drove in and out of the
mine compound, and men with
hoses washed dust from the hoist
cage that brought bodies to the sur
face.
Jacobus Olivier, general manager
of the mine 62 miles southeast of Jo
hannesburg, gave the official cas
ualty figures. He said that of the
dead, five were white and 172 were
black migrant workers from tribal
homelands and neighboring black
countries.
He said government engineers
were removing samples of the
materials that had burned in the fire
to determine which one spewed the
killer gases. Olivier said the source
could have been a polyurethane
foam used to help seal structural
bracing in the tunnels.
Workers were welding a broken
rail used by small trains to transport
ore when the fire broke out. Olivier
said an acetylene gas cylinder caught
fire, and the blaze spread to the walls
covered with the polyurethane
foam.
The fumes killed all the victims,
he said.
The accident occurred just days
after the Chamber of Mines, the as
sociation of mining companies, re
ported its best safety figures ever for
gold mines.
Meese seeks new law
on immigration, links
aliens to drug trade
WASHINGTON (AP) — Attor
ney General Edwin Meese III,
pressing Congress to overhaul the
immigration law, on Wednesday
linked drug smuggling with the in
flux of illegal aliens across the
Southwest border.
Border Patrol narcotics seizures,
largely in the Southwest, now top
1,000 a year and are worth $150 mil
lion, a 15-fold increase since 1981,
Alan C. Nelson, commissioner of the
Immigration and Naturalization
Service, said at a news conference
with Meese.
Meese said, “The reality is that il
legal immigration is contributing to
the drug problem.”
He said drug smugglers “get lost
in the crowd” of aliens crossing the
border and that in some cases the
traffickers are pressing aliens to
carry drugs.
“The fewer illegal immigrants you
have, the less you’re going to have
them involved in illegal drug traf
ficking,” the attorney general said in
urging passage of immigration over
haul legislation lying dormant in
Congress.
Meese said “my concern ... is that
we have an historic opportunity to
tackle these two critical problems in
America and that this opportunity
may slip away during the next three
weeks (before Congress adjourns) if
action is not taken on an urgent ba
sis.”
The legislation would fine em
ployers who hire illegal aliens to dis
courage a new wave of illegal immi
gration.
Evangelist sets rules
for presidential bid
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Rev. Pat Robertson said Wednesday
that he will run for president if 3
million registered voters show their
support for him during the next 12
months with their work, prayers and
money.
At a news conference before he
was to address a rally at Constitution
Hall, the television evangelist said,
“If that many people were truly ac
tive in support of any candidate, it
would virtually guarantee victory.”
Robertson refused to set any fi
nancial goal for his effort, but said
he would be “reluctant, if I can pos
sibly avoid it, to accept federal
funds.”
He said that if elected, “I would
become president of all the people
and as such could not judge any of
the people on the basis of their reli
gious beliefs.”
In remarks prepared for delivery
to the rally, Robertson concluded by
saying:
“If by Sept. 17, 1987, one year
from today, 3 million registered vot
ers have signed petitions telling me
that they will pray — that they will
work — that they will give toward
my election, then I will run as a can
didate for the nomination of the Re
publican Party for the office of pres
ident of the United States of
America.”
Dow Jones closes mixed;
average drops 9.14 points
NEW YORK (AP) — Stock prices
turned in a mixed showing for the
third straight session Wednesday as
the market continued its struggle to
pull out of last week’s nosedive.
The Dow Jones average of 30 in
dustrials dropped 9.14 to 1,769.40,
while most other, broader market
measures posted gains.
Volume on the New York Stock
Exchange came to 141.04 million
shares, against 131.18 million in the
previous session.
With the Dow Jones industrial av
erage as a gauge, it was the market’s
weakest session this week, after gains
of 8.86 on Monday and 10.96 on
Tuesday.
But by many other standards, it
was the best day on Wall Street since
the selling rush that hit last week.
More NYSE issues posted gains than
losses for the first time since Sept. 4,
when the Dow stood at a record clos
ing high of 1,919.71.
Analysts said the market was ben
efiting from some tentative “bar-
gain-hunting” by traders.
