They were on a plank six feet long by two feet wide ten feet from the top of the chimney, which Is 164 feet high. Their rescue was effected after a long struggle by other employes and members of the fire department, who were called to aid In getting the men down. The prisoners on the chimney were Harry Towyne, foreman of the Job, and Conrled Drlol, his assistant Both are expert chimney builders. The work had been practically finished when the men went up to do some cementing near the top. A Udder 168 feet long In sections had been rigged up Inside the chimney. Towyne and Brio! climbed up this at one o'clock. They cemented the top or rim of the chimney, then climbed down to a scaffolding that had been built ten feet below the top, when a small ladder they- had used In. reaching tbe top dropped. Towyne and Briol began to rip up the floor of the scaffolding. They had ripped up all the timbers but one the largest the centerpiece of the scaffold. They stood on this as they dropped the last of tbe other boards. Tbe last plank they dropped didn't go straight to tbe bottom, but struck on the side of the chimney and, glancing, crashed heavily Into an upright ladder some distance below the two men. The force of the plank snapped the ladder and the upper half of If tumbled in a heap below. The two men found themselves marooned high up with only a plank two feet wide to stand on. They cried for help for what seemed to them days. About five o'clock the other workmen around the plant walked Into the chimney ground level and heard the cries of the two prisoners. News of the men's plight spread quickly. Soon a large crowd was at the bottom of the big flue. All sorts of schemes for, getting them down were advanced.
