A Kenya Airways jet with 114 people aboard crashed early Saturday in a dense forest in the West African nation of Cameroon, government officials said, and efforts to reach the wreckage were hampered by heavy rainfall. There was no information on survivors.
          Airline officials said they lost contact with the Boeing 737-800, bound for the Kenyan capital, Nairobi, 11 minutes after its midnight takeoff from Douala, Cameroon. Kenya Airways Flight 507, which originated in Ivory Coast, was carrying 105 passengers from 23 countries, including one American, and nine crew members, airport officials said.
          Anguished relatives gathered at Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, sobbing and waiting for news. Police sealed off the airport after journalists mobbed relatives. Officials did not speculate on the cause of the crash, but some suggested that weather may have been a factor. "We really don't know," said Titus Naikuni, chief executive of Kenya Airways. "It's too early to make any conclusions."
