Gas Explosion In q Coal Nine

WHKEsBARRE March An ex-
plosiOn Of gas occurred at Prospect
Shaft, last night, by which Jacob
GeOtz, watehman, and Charles No
Ian, boss. were seriously burned.
The mine had been flooded to put
out the FIRE some weeks ago, and the
water was being pumped out when
the watehman dropped a spark from
his lamp into the mouth Of the shaft
and caused an instantaneous explo-
sion, which was terrific, blowing the
timbers around the top into pieces.
A fast as the gas accumulated and
arose to the mouth Of the shaft anOth-
er explosion would follow, shaking
the earth for some distance, the
shUeks resembling those Of aH earth
quake The shaft is three miles from
WLkesbsrre, but the fash Of each
explosion lit up the city and country
for miles around The explosions
occurred every fifteen minutes for
over three hours. The FIRE is cut,
but the loss TO the works Is not
known.
