SQUEEZE AND FIRE.
A Serious Coed it ion. of A flairs wt the
Butler .Mine.
I'ittston Ouxette.
There is a serious squeeze and tire in the
Butler mine. The tiro resulted from the
explosion of a quantity of gas which had
accumulated in the Bqueexing territory,
mid II has been decided to try to extln
Hiiish the flame by turning water into a
portion of the mine.
The trouble begun yesterday morning,
when the pllhirs In a slope in the Bed Anil
vein, about ,'iuO feet ill an easterly direc
tion from the fool of the shaft, were found
to be 'chipping." The miners were not
permitted to enter, and Aline Inspector
McDonald was notified.
It was not known to what extent the
workings were squeezing, so lust evening
Inside foreman Daniel Brady and Klre
Boss Kid Duvls entered the mine to In
vestigate the condition of affairs. There
liuil nevt r before been any gas In the
mine. Inn the "squeeze'- had apparently
forced gas out or the crevices, und an
explosion occurred. The men were nol In
jured, though the shock was quite severe.
The explosion set tire lo the slope, but to
