A Warning Note,

EDITOR EVENING HERALD 1T is cur
rently reported in the newspapers that prep
arations for extinguishing the mine fire at
the Lawrence colliery are nearly completed,
and that, after the brick and cement dam is
constructed, water will be introduced down
through an air hole in the lift above, and in
this way its extinguishment can be quickly
and effectually accomplished. As miner, l
quite agree with the methods OF those having
the matter in charge. There is only one
feature in cases of this kind that am led to
believe is, sometimes, overlooked, the
result not infreqently being great loss
of life to the unfOrtunates in the mine
at the time the mine, or that section of it
is being flooded. The great danger
lies in the fact that the water, rushing down
a manway, or air hole, with heavy pitch,
drives any gas that may have accumulated in
any part of the mine toward the fire, causing a
terrific explosion, and, what is more terrible,
loss of life. There are still different opinions
| to-day as to what was the cause of the catas-
trophe during the flooding of mine at Lans-
/ ford in 1898 Be that as it may, the fact re-
mains that the explosion occurred during the
| flooding of the mine, and lives were sacri-
feed l would urge that the Mine Inspector
see that not an individual be allowed to enter,
or remain, in the Lawrence mine while it is
being flooded. l would suggest this as a pre-
caution before it is too late, not after
