ALLENTOWN. Pa, Aug. 24.-The fire
in the Summit Hill colliery has reached
the Spring Tunnel coIliery and all efforts
to prevent its spread are unavaiIing
The intense heat has driven the freight
ers from the mine, and all operations have
ceased
The fire in the Summit Hill Mine origi-
mated forty years go, and has since been
burning the coal steadily. The Lsh. gn
Coal and Navigation Company, which owns
the property, has expended large sums in
endeavors to extinguish the fire The big
duplex pump which poured water into the
mine broke down short time ago. and
this, it is said. is responsible for the-spread
OF the flames.
