From Thursdays Daily.
In conversation with a well posted and
intelligent miner employed at the Ana.
conda, a MINER reporter ~wasinformed that
the introduction Of steam into the mine
was begun yesterday. The air compress.
ors having been stopped the air pipes are
utilized to force steam into the different
levels. Nine large beilers carrying an aver.
age pressure Of ninety pounds each furnish
the steam. while the high pressure forces it
to the lower levels and drifts, from which it
ascends to the levels above. 1t 10 believed
this will ~extinguish t efire without subject.
ing the mine to any additional damage.
The experiment will be watched with great
interest and q sincere hope for it's success.
1t is thought the entire mine can be filed
in about three days by til method, and
Saturday the shafts willis probably be
opened and an examination made II poss
ible. Some apprehension was expressed by
q few that danger OF az explosion would
follow the injection OF steam. which tLey
assumed would, upon coming in contact
with intense heat, generates dangerous gas
OF nlgniy explosive QuauGle6. On the other
hand, the opponents OF this theory claim
chat sufficient pressure cannot be brought
to bear to cause al explosion. The most
dangerous element to contend against is
whsst in mining parlance is known as
"Tood gas" and after the shafts are 1
opened nc successful attempt can be made |
to enter the drifts until the lapse OF twenty. |
hours in order to permit the escape OF
this sitting gas. At first it was doubted if
steam could be forced into the lower levels, |
but this apprehension was removed by a
fortunate accident. One of the air pipes
is known to have been disconnected on the
SO0-foot level and the steam when forced
down, will, upon ESCAPING, naturally rise to
the upper levels and enter every part OF the
mine.
his quite probable that by this method
fires supposed to be smouldering in the
vast forest OF timbers which support the
workings Of the mine can be extin-
and the mihe saved from total
destruction.
= Four dogs have been secured which will
% lowered into the mine as soon as the
hiatt is opened in order to test the atmos-
,hereic condition Of the lower workings.

priving our citizens Of an nheaent rishtS
would retard mining Development and.
practically put an end to prospecting for

reason that every locator OF q mine would
find himself confronted with q law suit, at
the very commencement Of his claim; and
WHEREAS. While this is a question which
vitality effects the rights and interests Of
every citizen OF Montana, it yet appeals
with more direct force to those of us who
follow mining as a business and az a means
OF earning q livelihood and who have
always before us the hope and the posi-
bility Of making q fortunate discovery for
