It will be f.und very Inter- Installment snatt tuaster. it win tie luinid very ostiug, as it not only embraces tho statements of lixpcctur McDonald and othcrolllcluls, but aim) treats Upon the history of tho workings and the manner in which they wero operated. The publication will be concluded to-morrow: Hugh McDonald, Mine Inspector, testillcu that ho did not expect any trouble, from the pillars being too small, or ho would hnve taken measures totop tho men from work lug. Ho thought the pillars, coinlKtred with tlioto In other collieries in his district, were , large enough. He had never seen any signs , of 11 Miticezo and had not been notified by the Superintendent of any squoessc. sMr. Mc Donald was asked to point out on the map the location of the different important open ings, and their relative position to the cave-In. The Attorney General wished to accrlRin first who mado tho map and if it had been drawn to the scale of one hundred feet to the inch as lequired by law. Mr. Mr-Donald sold that the map was mado by David C. Davis, mining engineer for the Newton Coal Com pany, and delivered tu him in his ofllclal capacity something over two years ago. It was extended regularly to tho scale nf one hundred feet to the inch. Ho was then in terrogated as to his opinion of tho cause of the oxt"iislvo eave-ln, its extent and also what elfect the flsstite, discovered noarwbera the boro holo was drilled, had on tho stiati. Mr. David C. Davis tjtificd that he was thirty-one years of agontid by profession a mining engineer fur tho Newton Coal Com pany. Ho had been a mining engineer for six years and used to make surveys of the Twin Shaft mino ovcry week. He stated how theso surveys were mado. Ho mado a general survey overy six mouths. He stated that tlie two veins wero worked together, and as near as anybody could get at them, the pillars of 011c seemed to bo over tho pillars of the othor and tho chambers wore mcr chambers, llo had been in the colliery Thursday before the accident, and noticed at one point a little disturbance, but throughout the wholo vein there was no gcncial disturb ance. Ho then explained how be made his measurements while making his surveys. Iiu stated that where twu veins are so approxi mate as in the Twin Shaft, "they are worked together all over the valley." In older to make a complete report on so sudden and serious a calamity, it is neicssary that we should give a history of tho colliery and of the colliery ofllcials aird their connec tion with It, together with tho mode of oper ating it, and a comparison with other col lieries 111 tho same vicinity, mining the samo coal seam and environed by the samo condi tions. Tito Twin Shaft was first sunk to the Checker and Pittstou seams some thirty years ago, afterwards to tho Marcy vein, and subsiqueutly an extension of tho shaft was mado to tlie lied Ash vein, which is split into two members called tho No. 5 and No. 0 veins, which are considered to bo the deepest ill this basin. Tho shaft is sunk near tho Junction of the Lehigh Valley and the Dela waic, Lackawanna & Western Itailroads, within tlie city limits of Pittstou, in tho Northern Anthracite Coal Fields of tho Wyoming liasin, Luzerne county. The total depth or the shaft is 131 feel to tho l!ed A-Ii vein. This vein has been in operation about nine years, ami during thirty years tho col liery lias been operated by six or more dif ferent coal companies. Tho prescntownersaie the Newton Coal jMiniug Company, who took possession of the Twin Shaft mino in 1SS0. 1 Mr. John A. Moars; who was a mcuilier of the company, was mado general manager mid served ai such until September 1st, ISM. A large aria of the coal property, from which they mined their co.il, is owned by anil leased from the Lehigh Valley Company, and the leinaining coal lands, tributary to the operation, are owned by the Newton C0.1l Company. The colliery map aeconiianying our report, which was offered in eidenco, shows the underground workings of tho No S and No. (1 veins, and the territory over which they have been mined. Tho red lines show the No. 5 and the Iiluck No. 11 vein. Tho imp also shows that 01) per cent, of coal has been mined under thut poitiou of the lauds marked "Eli K. Price ; " IJG per cent, from under the bed of the Susquehanna Itiver, and lit per cent, from under tho lands known as tho "Dank Farm," tho remaining 33 per cent, to 40 per cent, being left as pillar supports. When the Twin Siiaft reached the lied Ash vein it was found to bo "faulty" and thin by reason of a rtick "fault," which, us shown on the map, extends fiom tho shaft a distiinco of liOO feet southeast and southwest, and through which the tunnel is diivcu two bundled and forty feet to win tho cual south of the shaft. As the workings uf No. (I ein extended towards thu point located at the foot of No. 3 slope ( ICIovation 01.1) the No. 5 vein was accidentally discovered by reason of having to blast down tho roof of No. II vein in order to mako a uniform road grade. This exposed tho upper member of the Ited Ash vein and was proved to be from four to four and one-half feci thick. A tranportatioii road (technically called in and about Pittstou a "run") was made into it. No. (i vein, how ever, had been mined considerably in ad vance before No. 5 vein was opened, and much difficulty was experienced in maintain ing the transportation road benls of No. S vein, on account of the rock strata between the two veins being only 8, lv and tli feet thick. As this occasionally fell down it was necessary to fill up with refueo and build "nogs," so as to raise the road beds to their original position and also senu as pillar supports. In uouiae nf milling No. 5 vein, Mr. Davis, mining engineer, tes tified thut overy effort liad been made to form tho chambers and pillars in No. 5 vein over those couttiucted in No. 6 vein Tlie map shows that a little over nine ai res of the No. S vein had been mined before the accident occurred. In September, lb(l2, tlie Newton Cosl Min ing Company wenred thu services of Mr. John II. Ijiw, a reputable milling engineer and graduate of Ijafayclto college, who dis charged the duties of his position up to the date of the accident, his chief underground official being JI. J. Ijiugan, eninl inside mino superintendent, and M, T. Lyuott, in sido foieman. Mr. Joint 11. Law, as his cvi donre shows, was for several years general mine suporintendeut for the Pennsylvania Coal Coiujiany, Pittton, and served in this capacity up to tho time his services wero se cured by tho New ton Coal Mining Compauy as its general manager. His duties, as described by himself in tho ovideiice, was to employ competent men ut the head of each department of tho Nowtou Coal Coinjiany's iuteiests as well as to ovor bco the company's all'airs, financially and otherwise. Ho had implicit confidence In tho ability of Sir. Langan to conduct all tho mining opcratloiu belonging to tho com pany, vith duo regard to the safety of tho men, i.ud to the best interests of all con cerned. Mr. Law's oyidenco also shows that ho consulted with Mr. Langan when neces sary, and tho plans of the latter always met with his approval. He also testified that ho went into the minis only vijico re t&j Jlr I.angan to consult on noun. pfi matter A general manager's duties are sur ll0, cn"1,10' "m tienl visits into all'jjlid. ,K "B",H tu, 11,0 """WS neiweu iiu inny uu. ioineroun unsure? matters constantly reiiitlro his attention, an" thoreforo each deiHirtnient is placed mule competent head, whoso dally duty it is to after tho details of his particular denitrtme: and report anything which, in his opinio reiiulrra tho attention of tho general mana ger. Mr. I.angan, tho General Mine Superinten dent, was the iwrson nest in authority to Mr. J ho term supcrinteiideiit" means "Tho person who shall have, on behalf of tho owner, general supervision of one or more mines or collieries." (See Articlo Is under the head of "Definition of Terms" of tho Mino Ventilation Law, Juno 2, 1601. ) Mr. Lnngan had held this position in the service of tho Newton Coal Mining Company, and had been connected with this company in some capacity, long before tho Twin Shaft was sunk to tho Itod Ash Vein. From boy. hood ho had been an employe at this mine, boglnnltig as a driver ; was promoted to tho position of driver-boss, and sorved in that capacity in the Pittstou Vein j and was made Inido Mino Foreman of tlie mine workings in tho Marcy vein. Under his supervision the Twin Shaft was sunk to the I!cd Ash vein, wheiehewas also Mine Foreman for some years, until ho was again promoted to tho position of Superintendent of tho Twin Shaft and all tho other mines operated by tho then owners. When tho present owners, Messrs. Frank T. Patterson, William 11111 and V.. L. Fuller, took possession of theso mines soveu yearsago, Mr. John A. Noars, who was ap pointed General Manager, continued Mr. Langan as Mino Superintendent. Mr. Itw succeeded Mr. Mears in 181M and Mr. Langan was retained In his position, which ho held until his death. It is to be presumed lint Mr. Lmgau had been a closo student during his long and varied experience in mining and was fully competent to contend with all thu complica tions of coal mining, yet, during all his mining expeiiencc, he may never have had to contend with a general squeeze It is safe to assume that ho con-ideicd tho squeeze at tho Twin Shaft of a local character, for if lie had pojsecd a true apprehension of the magnitude of the subsidence which was going on and tho dangers attending It, he would havo withdrawn with his men to the top of tho shaft nud awaited results. In connection with our inquiries into tho cause of tho Twin Shaft disaster wo asked fur the records kept at tho colliery in which accidents have b 11 recorded. Wo found that nine men had lot their lives in seven years. Tho following statement shows tho average number of tons of coal mined by tho Newton Coil Mining Company at Its Twin Shaft for each life lost, covering operations for a period of seven years from 1830 to 1S0S inclusive : Yenr.

Tho method of mining throughout the entire underground workings of the Twin Shaft colliery lias been by tho Pillar and Chamber system, with no sectional reserva tion blocks of coal left to arrest a squeeze and coiillno it to the particular group of chambers from which it may havo begun. Tho Twin Shaft mine, however, compares favorably with others in this vicinity with respect to width of chambers, headings and sizo of pillars, for, from what wo could hoar of how other collieries wero operated in the neigh borhood of Pittstou, and from our own observation, as well as from the maps wo wero permitted to sec, we found tho same method generally adopted as at tho Twin Shaft. The Twin Shaft colliery had always been very gaseous and required very largo intake and outlet airways in order to juss the necessary quantity of air for all purposes, yet we think soma of tho gangways in this mino wero driven too wldo and tho chambers wcio opened too wido from them. No fixed rule cm bo laid down for uniform width of transportation nud ventilation avenues in all collieries because tho requirements vary with each mino. Tho curs used in collieries are not all of tho same dimensions, and the law Is mandatory only in that sufficient width shall bo allowed In passageways for persons to pass tho cars, no matter what their dimensions may be. (Seo Article 12, rule 13). With regard to air passages, tho atuo'iut of air necessary to be in circulation in ono colliery may not bo ade quate properly to ventilate another, mid in propoitiou to tho amount of air necessary to ventilate a colliery so must tho area bo to comply with tho Mine Ventilation Law. (Seo Section 7, Article Id.) Somu testimony was given before tho commission that the head ings wero diiventoo wirlo in order to nave paying for yardage. If we are to believe this evidence, it must lmvo lieen false economy. for, from Wshat wo found to be the conditions of the strata ovet lying the coal seam, tho expense In maintaining those headings must have lieen 11101 e than the amount usually paid tor yumase.
