inspectors who made the investigation
into the situation OF affairs at slope No. 1

they could not see that anything further
could be done by the Susquehanna Coal

got at through the blocked workings and
that no more rapid progress can be
made than is now being made by the res

thor ontire satisfaction with the meas

men, and say that even under the most
favorable circumstances 1t viii take

The sinking OF the bore hole is being car
ried only to satisfy the relatives and
