ENCOURAGING TO MINGRS.
Theno DismlsHcd from No. .i Shnft
Will (io Uncle .11 on day.
There is a possibility that the Inside
employes of the No. .I colliery will be
nllowed to resume work on Monday
next. A few weeks ago the colliery was
shut down for the purpose of driving
a heading to connect No. :i mine with
No. 1 mine. The work will be com
pleted today. The mines are connected,
nnd tracks laid. A few of the employes
of the mine were nllowed to resume
work yesterday.
It was given out at the time of the
closing down of the mine that work
would not be resumed for three months.
It was thought at that time It would
take that long to put all things In
shape.
New steam e-nglnrs are to replace
the iild water wheel which at present
hauls the coal out of No. 1 mine. The
Increase In the number of cars which
are to be taken out has made the
change necessary. The engines havo
not yet been put In, but as nil of the
other work Is completed, tin attempt
will be mnde to haul all or the coal
with the water power until the en
gines are placed In working order.
The probabilities ure thpt at least
half of the men employed In No. n can
resume work on Monday, and It may
bo that all of them will bo nllowed to
go back to work.
