The fires start in the refuse which is left after the coal is dug and are caused by a process similar to spon- taneous combustion, according to Mir. Medill The miners call them "gob fires,p from the word applied by coal dggers to the debris in the mine.
 They do not flare up in flame, but burn slowly, smouldering away for years until they eat themselves out of fuel. Chambers where these fires start become a mass of live red coals and must be sealed up to keep the air from them.
 The trouble is caused when fire eats its way through a wall and threatens to break through into the mine workings. Some times the smouldering coals eat up the support ing coal pillars. resulting in weaken ing the support for the ground above.
 These fires cannot be extinguished by water, Mr. Medill stated Water only makes them worse. IL IS Ine decentralization resulting from the mixing of water and the refuse that causes the original combustion The only way to stop the fires is to re- move the burning coals from the mine. Many such fires may be seen on slack piles on the surface in this section of the state. These can be flooded with water and extlnguished, Mir Medill stated.
