Reopen Coal Mines
In North England

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
MANCHESTER, England, July B.-An
interesting feature OF the wartime demand
for coal IL that II has brought about the
reopening of hundreds OF derelict mines
in the remote valleys of the Pennine
range. long line OF hills that stretches
from the vicinity of Manchester straight
north to the Scottish border. The entire
but difficulties of transportation and
lack Of capital have heretofore prevented
any extensive development
As tine great coal districts OF South
ern Lancashire and Yorkshire become de-
pleted, more attention must be paid to
these upland deposits and the problem OF
reaching them with transportation facili-
ties must be met. At present there Is
no railway which reaches within twenty
miles of the most accessible fields
Wartime prices, however. have turned
attention 10 these old mines. and In a
primitive way the owners and tenants
have begun feckinR out a few hundred
tons here and there and marketing It at
various points, which can be reached by
horse transport. The mines are worked
in old-time fashion by a few GOLFERS each
There is little attempt at timbering. and
the levels are constructed 10 drain nat
urally. The seams are approximately q
yard I'm thickness and as they pass level
into the moors are easily workable
Some OF the mines were opened up many
generations ago and later abandoned; a
few have been worked In half-hearted
fashion until galleries a couple OF miles
lnnR haUa haAp Old church
old parchments and immortal deeds are
full OF illusions OF these deposits.
The cheapness with which the coal may
be mined IL indicated by the fact that at
one pit above Wensleysdale. for example
it Is sold at the pit mouth at q a ton.
but so severe Is the climb to the mind
that 800 pounds is a good horse load.
The coal is a fair household quality.

Tells Of Fighting
On Mile-High Peaks

correspondence OF the Associated Press.)
BUDAPEST. July ga Hungarian Of
ficer. describing the fighting on the Tyro-
lese mountain peaks, a mile above sea
level states that the most difficult
problem for the staff is to maintain the
supply OF food to the troops. On account
OF the high altitude and the continuous
physical strain, they need good supplies
and plenty of them.
The officer pays q tribute to the work
OF the Red Cross. "Our wounded have TO
be carried down In sheets tied to the
ends of sticks and It takes dozen men
TO carry ono down" he remarks.
Scout duty is particularly dangerous.
except for skilled AlpinistH. and many
OF these never return. Touching on the
remarkable echoes thrown back by the
mountain peaks. the officer says: ''The
roar Of the guns is heard twice. thrice.
or perhaps a dozen times, the echo throw
ing the sounds back and forth. and
transforming a single report into a fusil-
lade Many of our men have been rem
dered unconscious or even driven mad
by the fearful noise OF the guns in the
rarified atmosphere OF these high alti-
tudes"
The same officer In another letter de-
scribed an attack by the Italians on the
positions held by his troops. 1T was
after o'clock I'm the evening when the
TtalInn infantry began to climb the
mountain and storm the positions. We
lay low behind the rocks and poured a
fusillade Of fire upon them as they came
up In three lines. That was easy. But
some terrible and trying moments for
our troops came after this. The Italians
having been reinforced by another bril-
gade, came In such force and with such
determination that the hot barrels of our
rifles could do no more. A fourth brigade
was then seen in reserve trotting up
behind.
"They surprised the advanced positions
a whole company fell into their hands
and they came on against the heavy
fire OF our infantry and artillery -
courageously and undisturbed that even
their most gallant adversary. Major
Turndiia. remarked: Honor and respect
10 those Italians; they behave beautifully.
7 would not have expected anything
elso'"
