CALIFORNIA IS FORMULATING
NEW SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR
ALL MINES IN STATEsSYSTEMS
(Continued from rage One.)
every stope, drift or level in a
mine.
‘The stench of ethyl or methyl
mercaptan is terrific and cannot lie
mistaken for any other odor in a
mine. For test purposes and drills,
however, the mines probably w ill
Uoo amyl acetate, which is oil of
banana. This is effective but does
not have the same swift penetrating
effect of the other chemicals. It
takes from 40 seconds to a minute
longer for thy banana oil to reach
the remote sections of a level.
“It is true, however, that men
■working away from the air com
pression system will not get the
same quick warning as the m n
■working the compression drills, or
in sections where compressed air 13
nsed far ventilation.
Telephone System
"To offset this, the new regula
tions will make compulsory an aux
iliary telephone system through the
e :agency exit of each mint a ad
dition to the regular telepiion down
the main shaft. Telephones will be
on each level and warning of fire
will be transmitted in this manner
in addition to the stench warning.
"A system or electric light flashed
will also be put into effect, and un
der the new regulations the men
when warned of fire will meet at
designated pans of /the mine and
form fire-fighting sqhads. Each skip
tender, boss or sub-boss will have
certain work to do and the fire
fighting equipment will be on hand
for each squad to do what it is sup
posed to do.’’
Cement Spraying
Timbers, shafting and other inflam
mable materials in each shaft will
be gunrted, or sprayed with cement,
according to the terms of the new
S-eg'Ulartlons. The new regulations
also call for five sets of breathing
apparatus for a shift of 2,'. men or
more under-ground. The old rrgula-!
tlons called for five sets for JO
men. Where a group of mines have
a cooperative station, the new regu
lation* Call for 10 sets of breathing1
apparatus Instead of five to be kept1
at this central station.
These regulations, which have not 1
yet been adopted in their final form. '
are in the hands of a committee of!
11. comprising: Byron O. Pickard.;

the desolate, red-clay farm lands,
about six milee from Marlon and
four miles from Herrin. The can!
lies sn tte,ar the surface that it is
scooped up with a steam shovel after
the surface soil is cleared away and
piled in two towering "dump,;”
along both sides of the cut.
Mine Is Operated.
The mine was idle for a time dur
ing Hie coal strike, according to wit
nesses for the slate, until W. J. tes
ter, then owner of the property
which now is known as the Caloric
Coal Company, obtained permission
from the union officials to repair
the steam shovel at the pit and then
to strip hack the soil and expose the
coal ready fur loading when I he
strike ended. After this had been
done, they tesllfied, the union miners
were discharged and forty-five non
union workers and thlriy-one armed
guards were brought in to operate
the pit. s> #
Defense witnesses pictured the
guards as “rough-necks" and accused
them of vurious offenses ranging
from highway robbery to the un
justifiable murder of three union
miners who approached the pit the
afternoon of June 21 in an effort to
peaceably induce the non-union
workers to quit. Five of the non
union men who deserted the mino
earlier iiy the day were declared to
have asserted they had been threat
ened with death iP they left..
First Sh’ots Fired.
The first shots were fired when a
truck caniaining non-union workers
was ambushed on the road from Car
bondale earlier the same morning
(June 21) and three of its occupants
seriously injured, according to wit
nesses for the state, after hardware
stores in Marion and Herrin had
be'en looted of guns and ammunition.
The same afternoon, they testified,
the mine was attacked by a crowd
estimated -at from a few hundred
to more than a thousand persons.
Defense witnesses, .on the other
hand, toatlficd that the first shots
fired during the afternoon came from
the guards in the mine.
Firing continued during the after
noon while a mysterious airplane,
which was seen again Hie next
morning, fluttered overhead. At
about 5:30 p. m. the mine’s defend
ers raised a white flag after Col.
Sam Hunter, a member of the Ad
jutant General’s staff from Spring
field, had telephoned that he was
trying to arrange a truce and that,
(/ester had told him to tell those in
the pit to surrender.
White Flag Lowered.
Later the white flag was lowered
and the shooting continued. At sun
rise the firing became more brisk
and the forty-eight men remaining
In the mine, many others having
fled during the night, decided to
surrender. After being assured of
their safety, according to one wit
ness, the men were marched out of
the pity and twenty of them killed.

• The northern portion of Alaska and the Arctic Ocean to the west
ward is overlaid with an intense low pressure area, with a barometer
of 28.66 inches at Nome this morning. It has occasioned southerly
winds, with rising temperature and heavy snow, over most of the In
terior. The pressure is high to the southward of Juneau, with a read
ing of 30.50 inches at Prince Rupert, thus making a gradient of
nearly two inches between that point and Nome. Fair weather pre
vails over British Columbia and the coast region to the southward.
