The Sumner Mine ON Fire.
CALIENTA, CAL, Nov. 27.-The damage
to the Sumner mine works annot be esti-
mated at present. The fire is thought to
be in the 16O-foot level, but it is hoped
the dampness will prevent it going lower.
The attic, or the level nearest the surface,
is still caving, and, as the tim bers are con-
sumed, caves occur from the surface.
There has been NJ caving directly under
the hosting works, 30 that the heavy
machinery that the burning of the build
ings did not entirely destroy will be saved,
providing no cave occurs directly under
the works, in which case all that would
burn would be buried beyond recovery. It
is impossible to say how the fire is pro-
crossing, as the smoke prevents any in
spection. From the 100 to the 240-foot
tunnel there was no insurance.
