been pouring upon the burning coal
with no apparent result, the water
causing fantastic vapors in the white
heat which serve only to hamper the
work of the fire fighters, already
hampered enough by the heat and
poisonous gases issuing from the
burning coal.
The firemen enter the mine through
a shaft two miles away. They are
unable, on account of the terrible
heat, to venture. any nearer the fire
than 500 feet. A perpendicular air
shaft, located directly above the fire
and communicating with the open
air 400 feet above affords a draft
greater than that Of the most tower

fronts the men, fighting the flames,
as sudden depression in the at

send the sulphurous gases backward,
resulting in suffocation. -:
