The spoon shaft, by which the coal la drawn out of the
mires, and WWII le milled the Victoria pit, is not many yards
distant from the Diamond pit, and it appears that the force
et the laplorks was lilt in this as well as in the other shaft,
the body alma amending it, setting on fire the coals in the
tabs as they were wound up. The fire in the mine was not
totally get oat before two o'clock yesterday morning,
end of course its presence impeded very consider-
ably, up to that time the labours of the search-
tag platten It is ;eroded that • considerable

after the intelligence of shocking event had reached that
place, and rendered all the andstanco in their power., seek
of the sufferers as were Lae, when taken hem the pit Mr.
Inspector Piameing, of the county ouestabulary, vrith a
number of policemen, and Mr. Bueltley, shill 001/011/16 of
Ashton, rendered great service in preenwing order
at the mouth of the shaft, and he keephig ' took
the «card, so as to prevent Oar fraud* the
exertions of those who were employed la the ream.
Tbe wives and children of teeny at the willies alkaloid
about the month of the pits soon filter the accident was
known to have occurred, and manifested great datum. Hr.
Whitehead, a surveyor, from Rochdale, had been down into
the mine on Tuesday, along with Mr. Wilde son of owe of
the proprietors, to make some plans, and had not ascended
from the pit more than a quarter of an hour before the fatal
explosion took place. The workings ere mid to have been
very well venCined, mad but few accidents have taken
place in them hitherto, the last having moaned about six
years ago. Mr. Dickenson, the government inspector of
mines for the district, arrived at the colliery yesterday at
noon, end wee about to descend the mine when our account
left. Mr. W. 8. Butter, one of the coroners for the minty,
opened the inquest on the bodies of the men killed yeeter-
day_evalleg.
Up to the present time no idea bas been formed as to the
cause of the explosion.
