ACCIDENT AT THE BALTIMORE.
What Mine Inspector Williams Has
to Say About 1t.

Mine Inspector G. NJ. Williams has
made the following statement with ref
erenCe to Mondays accident in the Bal
tlmOre No. 9 shaft at Wilkes Barre,
wheE a number of miners had 4 narrow
escape from being smUthered:
The workmen in the gangway fired a
blast of dynamite in the coal, which is
nited a number of gas feeders. The men
applied water IL did not run with suiti-
cient force TO eNtinSuish the fire, owing
to something blocking up the pipe. Wnlie
they were trying TO put out the lire III
this manner the flames caught the tim
bers. This was in the slope workings. The
men imprisoned were on the top of the
plane ON the same current of air, but
about a mile away from the fire IN the
slope workings. on their way out the cur
cent Travelled in the same direction as
they did. This current carried the smok e
with IT and as 1t travelled more rapidly
than the men the dense volumes of smoke
overlook them. The men still strove to
make their way through the smoke which
each moment was becoming denser. but
they We're overcome by it and sank ui,-

We found that in order to get up to
the men TO Rescue them ii would be nec>
essary to get some air up to the plane.
1t was accordingly arranged to split tire

ward the fire from that point and send

so that the rescuers were able to reach
there. The men were found scattered all
along the gangway ana were all lying on
their backs unconscious The air current
was restored to its proper condition before
the officials left the mine.
1t is probable that the part of the
mine where the fire is will be idle for
at least a month, while the other work.

GOOD SHEPHERD HOSTEL.
Home for COnvaiescent Males in
Need of Supplies.

In the interest of the Order Of the
Good Shepherd, an Episcopal minister
ing organization, the following circular
appeal has been issued:
The Elmhurst Home and Hostel cam
not yet be built. The need of such a
place for sick and injured men and boys,
who often have to be discharged too early
from the overcrowded l.ackawanna Hos
pital to make room for new cases, urgent
ones of life and death-is an ever present
one.
Therefore 1t is that Brother Francis
has engaged the premises at Sl3 Capouse
avenue. wherein to open the Hostel. He
opens 1t in faith. believing that the peo-
pie in Scranton who care for the suffering
ones in the Hospital will also care for
them in the Hostel till really fit to be dis
charged, as cured and strong enough for
work.
For the furnishing Of the Hostel are
needed a range; at least four iron cots and
mattresses, bedding, chairs, tables, rugs,
window shades and other things. Dona-
tiOns of COAL groceries and provisions, and
contributions in money, especially in the
shape of monthly subscriptions for cur
rent expenses will be gratefully received.
