rariicularsof the Terrible Calamity
at the Mincs-Itaked in the Red
Hot Shafts Scenes Jlejow
the Suriacc-Grief of
Wives and Children.
Vct the Virginia (.Wcoiio) EiUrryi. i; April P..
. Ail soon as It was known tti.it tho mines w re on
lire, and tliat a larjfis number of miner were Im
prisoned below, tin; tnnst iiitono oxi'ltofmiiit pro
wiled, both in Hold Illil anil this city. Tti! wlvi',
children and relutivtis of the lost flocked to tin;
vaiioufl hoisting works, and their grief wus
rich as to caitRC tears to comtko down tlit
rheeks of tin; tnnst stor.t-!v;irted. Father
Monopne and several other I'li'r-.nlHj clergymen
did all that could 1)0 donj u comfort tin; weeping
women and children but even I lie 'cvi i i iel fathers
could find but UiUo to way upon such aa oi'cxxlon.
The poor women, with their wecplni? children
cliiiRlliK Hbout them, Htood about with hands elaxped,
rocking themselves to and fro, yet se.nree.ly uttering
an audible hoI they seemed perfectly abounded and
overwhelmed at trie suddenness and awiulnwsof tin;
calatnlty.Turn where they would thor.i was no oom fort
for them. At the Yellow Jacket, all bat one man
known to bo below had beon broui?;it up tltul. yet.
no smoke issued from the Nluift, while at kentuck
and Crown Point shafts there tnoso a ilm.-.k and
HtlfllriR column of smoke, mingled with the pungent
irnses generated from the burning wood and heated
ores below. No person who htood at the month of
cither of thCMe shafts mid experienced the choking
effect of Hie smoke and gases fcsiiing from below,
conld for a inoiiient entertain the slightest
hope that any one of ' ttnse in
the mine could lie alive, yet wives and
relatives would still hope against every
thing,' and In every, direetlon almost super
human exertions were made to extinguish tho lire.
. hy rlosing up the shafts and turning down Into them
the steam from the severul hoisting works, the tire
could have been extinguished almost immediately,
but to do this was almost equivalent to suy ttiul all
are dead below and would, indeed, have been death
to any that might have been living besides, fit;
order would have drawn from a'i present at all
interested In the fate of those below such a wail as
no one would wish to hear.
rBKit.ovs WOKK.
No one could have lived to descend twenty feet
into either the Crown Point or Kentuck shaits, but
the Yellow Jacket shaft being cooler, the gallant,
firemen and equally gallant miners descended it. and
bravely began the battle with the (ire. A long string
of hose was attached to a hydrant on Main street,
and carried down to the tsuo feet level, wlieu tho
work began. The firemen would advance u.s far as
possible, extinguishing the burning timbers, and
when a cave occurred or the timbers seemed about
to give way, tho water would la; shut off and tho
miners would go to the front ami make all secure.
The walls of the tunuels were so heated that It
was very frequently found necessary to fall back
.even after the burning timbers had been extinguished
and play the stream upon the rock in order to cool It
down, and in places water nearly boiling hot stood to
the depth of two or three Inches on the floor of the
tunnel. Then the air was bad. and, with the steam
and gases almost suffocating, it was found necessary
to lead an air-pipe from the main pipe of the blower
In order to enable the men to continue work. Du
ring this tight several caves occurred ; when tlfe
.miners came to the rescue, and when the ground
was made secure, the firemen would again go for
ward with their stream. It was such woi k as few
firemen in the United States have ever undertaken,
and such aa none but the firemen of a mining coun
try could have done.
8CKKE8 IlELOW TUB SUKKACB.
Pome of those who were below, and who were
fortunate enough to escape, give most, thrilling
descriptions of the scenes which occurred far down
In the drifts of the lower levels. AH agree in saying
that the smoke and stifling gas came upon them
suddenly, and that, although they rushed at
once for the shaft, there were many who sank
down on the way. At tho Crown Point the men
bo crowded upon the cage that It was detained
nearly five minutes, the station-man fearing
to give the signal to hoist while so many
men were in danger of being torn to pieces. A young
man who came up on that cage told us it was the
most fearful moment of his life, one man, unable
to find room to stand upright, crawled upon the cage,
and thrusting his head between our informant 8 legs,
begged to be allowed to remain there ami go up. As
the cage ascended those left lehiiid were heard to
throw themselves into the shaft, and some were
heard falling back on the floors. Another young man
told us that in rushing for the shaft it suddenly
occurred to him that he might fall into it, when
he got down and crawled upon his hands and knees,
feeling his wav. till he knew he had reached tho
shaft. While lying at the shaft he says that three or
four men came running from behind, and pitched
headlong Into the shaft. At one lowering of the cage
a man, who went down to rescue the sufferers, find
ing that there were more persons below than could
be brought np that trip, himself got off into the drift
and put on board a young man who win so suffo
cated that he was luirdly able to r'tand. We were
unable to learn the name of this man, b it were
happy to hear that he was afterwards brought up
safe and sound.
firemen rNnEitrmorNO.
This is a strange country, and strange things occur
here, giving rise to strange necessities; but our peo
ple are equal to nil the requirements of the "situa
tion," as was well proven yesterday. We have above
given it as our opinion that few liremen in any part
of the United Slates would have had the heart to
"tackle" a lire 800 or 1000 feet below the surface of
the earth, and we now wish to state that all did
their duty most cheerfully, even striving to be
allowed to go below. It was comical to see
the "shifts" for they frequently changed of
five laddies with their big hats on going down
on the cage a new way of going to a lire. A
stream was kept on in the 800-feet level all day, and
about 8 o'clock at night, as it was found the tire was
rising, a second stream was put on at the TOO-feet
level. The fire was finally so fur subdued, as we
learned about 12 o'clock last night, that the work
men were able to reach the bodies of some of the
unfortunates who lost their lives by this terrible
accident, We understand, that a number of bodies
Vere brought to the surface about 11 o'clock, and
that niue others were lying at the station of the 800
feet level. The lire was not yet out, though about
conquered. -This is the greatest mining calamity
that has ever occurred on the 1'aciilo coast, or in any
mines in the United States.
