MINE
DISASTROUS FIRE
A Correction of Unjust Criticism Concerning
that Calamity.

teacher in such cases. Perhaps no
possible precaution in the way of
selecting a captain over the descend
ing men-one of their own number
would have avoided the sacrifice of
life which occurred. Men are in a
great measure uncomfortable in the
presence of sudden danger. Still it
would seem that every load of men
lowered intosor hoisted from a mine
should have one aboard charged with
supreme command, disobedience to
whose orders should subject the in
dividual to instant discharge. The
captain of ship may be no Drawer
man than the individuals comprising
his crew. But the very fact of his
responsibility tends to make him
careful and thoughtful, and when
disaster is imminent, his duty to
those in his charge is uppeImost in
his mind-their safety is paramount.
He is not apt to become ratified nr
lose his presence of mind with this
load of responsibility attached to
him.
This characteristic of human nature
was brought into strong relief in the
case of this Fremont disaster. The
conduct of the officers of the mine.
as soon as the situation became
known, was highly commemorate.
Superintendent Goodall not only did
not hesitate to invade the danger
zone, but led the way into the burn
ing pit in his anxiety to save, if
possible, the lives OF the miners.
The sense of personal danger was for
gotten, or at least subservient to the
task of trying to rescue those i'm
prisoned by the fire.
In this connection, it is not out OF
place to say that the situation il
: which superintendent Goodau wa:
placed. after all hope of saving the
men alive had to be abandoned, wa:
the most delicate and trying imaein
able. There we're scores of relative!
and friends about the shaft whose
natural affection prompted them tt
cling to the hope that the imprisoned
men might still be living, even Ionl
after those in charge were convinced
that the case was a hopeless one
They would not believe the men wer,
dead, until the physical fact wa
brought before them. This compIi
Gated an otherwise delicate matter
Mr.. Goodall having charge of tn
property, his first duty was to rescu
the men if possible. When this wa
no longer possible, his duty was t,
adopt such measures as would pro
tect the property of the company
by eXtinguishing the fire. Two way
we're open to accomplish this, name
ly, flooding the mine, or bulkhead
ing the shafts so as to render th
shafts air tight, thereby smotherin,
the fire. To the adoption of eithe
of these courses the affection of tn
relatives of the victims would natural
~ rebel. 1t is impossible to conceiv
of more trying position.
