The Breaker of Lamb and Davis stroyed Last Kiht. lie- NO MEANS TO FIGHT THE FIRE Engine House, Boiler House and Stable Alto Destroyed--Flre Raging In tne Law rence CollleryShenandoah city Colliery Bollor House Tem porarily Disabled by Bursting Steam Pipe. Tho breaker and adjoining buildings nf the Mountain colliery, nt Turkey Run, formorly operated by M. W. Shoemaker and now owned by ox-Councilman A. It. Lamb and Geoi go Davis, wero totally destroyed by fire at about 12 o'clock last night. At the timo the tire started, and for wine time afterwards, Messrs. Imb and Davis and James Pratt were at work down the slopo of tho colliery, repairing u pump. Mr. Lamb says they first Went down the slope at 1):30 p. m. About 11 O'clock Mr. Lamb re turned to tho surfae and went Into tho engine house to dry his clothes and get some tools. At 11:30 he again weut down the slope, and about an hour and a half later again started for the surface to turn on the steam in tho engine house, the repairs to the putup having been completed. S ben ho got to tho top of tho slope he found the broakor and other buildings wero almost burned down. Many of the residents of Turkey Run, including tho Defender Hose Comnany. were upon the scene, but powerless to do anything towards fighting tho fire. The breaker, engine house, boiler house and stable wero totally destroyed. The fire men stato that they were upon tho scene in time to save the property, but they had not sufficient hose and the nearest fire plug was frozen. The loss is about f2,000. nith ?600 In insur ance. The mine is a small ono and the coal is taken from a slope sunk on a local basin of the seven-foot vein. The cause of tho firo has not been determined. Those first upon the scene say It started in the engine houso. There was a stove in this building, but whether the fire was started by this, or by a spark from a lamp when the men passed in and out of the bulldlug, cannot bo decided. Messrs. Lamb and Davis have not decided as to whether they will rebuild the plant, but tuey will probably do so. The loss is a severe one to tbein. STEAM riPE nrRSTS. A 12-inch steam pipe in tho boiler houso at the Shenandoah City colliery burst at S:15 last evening. It blew out the brick wall at tho back of one set of boilers. The boiler house ws slightly damaged. Several win dows wero blown out. N'one of tho firemen or helpers were iujured. The accident caused a stoppage of the mine pumps and water accumulated to tho depth of two or tnrce teet on one of the gangways. Tenipor ary connections were made and tho water was pumped out early this morning. Per. manent connections will be made in tlmo for uiu couiery to start. M usual on Monday morning. FIUB IX THE LAWRENCE. Men at work in the Lawrence colliery. Mahanoy Plane, last night found it difficult to remain at their labors on account of sulphurous smoke. They wero finally ordered out of tbe mine, and an investigation followed. It resulted In the dlscovory of a firo in tho fourth lift. Tbe origin is not known. I.ittlo can be learned of the real situation, but it was stated this afternoon that there was a raging firo in the mine. Mine Inspector Stein spent several hours there last night with a number of other officials, and at seven o'clock this moraing the inspector re turned to tbe mino, and was still there at a late hour this afternoon. This is accepted as an indication that the fire is a serious one. Tho colliery is operated by tho Lawrenco Coal Company. Just before tho Herald went to press In spector Stein returned to town and stated that tho fire is a serious ono. It was dis covered between breasts 10 and 17, East Buck Mouutaln gangway, fourth lift. Tho firo is supposed to be iu breasts 11 and in. Men are at work cutting a "hitch" in the tunnel and will build a dam for the purpose of drowning that section of the colliery. The tuunel referred to connects the Buck Mountain and Skidmoro veins. The pressure of the water on the dam to bo built will bo 108 pounds to the squaro inch. The colliery will not bo thrown idle by tho flooding of the affected section. It was work ing to-day, and coal will be taken out from the West Buck Mountain fourth lift and upper worklugs. To be Moved Hack to Delano. From Hazleton Sentinel.

The hope of finding a market in Europe for our sjrplusenal seems to have been rudely shattered. Mr. C. S. Fleming, secretary of the Anthracite Coal Operators' Association, who weut to Europe to mako a thorough in vestigation of tho possibilities of marketing tho surplus coal, says that it is impossible tinder tbe existing conditions of ocean freights to compete with English companies fur the European trade. Mr. Fleming adds: "In the first place, the charters arc too high ; a vessel leaving American ports can always eecuro a good class of freight, paying good prices for iu transportation, and we have practically no such thing as colliers. Our bottoms aro scarce, and If tho American coal operator secures a foieign bottom tbe rates are such that ho would uot bo able to sell it In London, Havre or Mediterranean points at a profit."
