The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1902-01-16

A tunnel 500 feet in length, 6 feet
wide and feet in height has just been
completed under Quakake mountain
that will drain all the Coke works on
the anthracite basin lying south of
Hazleton. This contract was COM
menced on Dec. IL. 1898. The protector
of the tunnel was the late Eckley r.
Coke, whose heirs have faithfully car
lied out his plans.
Mr.. Coke conceived and drew UP the
plans and specifications for the tunnel
in 1884, but owing to the condition that
prevailed at that time 1t was impossi-
bic to secure an outlet for the tunnel
in Quakakc valley, many of the farmers
refusing to dispose of their land. These
landowners later made concessions to
Coke Bros. & Co. that allowed the work
to be commenced in 1898.
The tunnel is driven from the lowest
portion OF the Coke works in Beaver
Meadow and will drain all the colieries
of that company. which had heretofore
been kept dry by pumps.
The tunnel was commenced on both
sides OF the mountain, one entrance be-
ing at Beaver Meadow and the other
near the town of Quakake. In cutting
through the mountain the tunnel tapped
several small seams of coal. None Of
these We're more than Il few inches
thick, but may later lead to veins that
have not yet been worked.
The original plans would have taken
the tunnel another course. but in order
to determine the value of the coal in
the Quakakc mountain the hole was
driven SO that the route was direct.
This involved difficult engineering
problem. which however, was success
fully solved.
TO connect all the Beaver Meadow
colleres with the No. A slope, which
is tapped by the tunnel, other holes will
have to be driven, and one of these,
from the No. . slope, will be a gigantic
task in itself. This sub-tunnel will be
more than 1,500 feet in length, and will
ne the important connecting link with
all the workings of Coke Bros & Co.
This tunnel will be of especial value
in developing veins of coal that are vet
untouched in that region, as in the
proposed path are these seams that it
has heretofore been impossible to reach.
The effect of the completion of the
tunnel will be far reaching and of great
benefit, as hereafter it will be impossi
BILE for an inundation of the mines to
occur, as recently occurred i'll that re-
gion. The use of sixteen pumps will be
dispensed with. and the saving in fuel,
Workmen's wages and repair will in a
few years go far toward recompensinS
Coke Bros. &; Co. for the extensive out
lay in constructing the tunnel.
The workings of A. S. Van Wickle,
which are adjacent to the Coke collier
les, will ultimately be drained by the
tunnel. as that in time the entire sur
face drainage at present in operation
will be discarded.
Only one fatal accident marked the
construction of the big tunnel. A
driver boy was caught between II car
aud the timber and so badly squeezed
that he died.
