DEATH by COAL GAS.

men carrying the unconscious form
of Track Walker Haley. With me
were Thomas Hartigan, Samuel
Mann, Peter May, William Cutliffe,
Joseph Brady and John Quillhot,
We reached the train, but there was
no one in the van. We did not
reach the engine or see anyone eX-
cept Haley who was taken out.
About this time we began to feel the
effects of the gas, Add IIartigan and
Mann began yelling FOR help. Har-
tigan said TO me, Gore, am gone
| tried to help him, but he was too
heavy, and we left them in order to
save ourselves. AS soon as we
reached the open air we backed in
an engine and freight cart and put
Mann and Hartigan on it and
brought them TO tire open air where
they revived. The first crow when
their train broke in two should have
waited until all the gas was out Of
the tunnel before they entered again.
Thomas Hartigan, one of the res
cuerS, started into the tunnel with
Patrick Gore and Samuel Mann.
They each took one side of the track.
They heard from Trainmastcr Ken
ney that Track Master Haley was
lying further on in an unconscious
condition.
"All at once, said Hartigan, Il
commenced to get dizzy, and lost
sight of Gore and Mann. | Stagger
ed towards the opcI ing and yelled
to Gore that ! was going. The last
knew, Gore had hold Of me and
was dragging me out, We did not
reach the dead men, y
Trainmastcr Eenney also went in
and tried to drag Haley out, but was
almost smothcred with gas. The
man was afterwards rescued Robert
Brown, of the rescucrs, was the only
man who accomplished the feat of
getting clear through the tunnel In
all, four searching parties were sent
out. None Of the railroad authori
ties will talk about the tragedy. The
coroner's jury, which was impancled
ut Sarnia, viewed the remains and
then adjourned,
The only ventilation in the tunnel
is a draft made by trains passing
through. When the wind is from

ventilation is very bad, but when
