Another Evidence of the Close Attention Given by the Hon. Chas. McCrea to All Phases of the Mining Industry. Hon. Chas. MceCrea, Minister of Mines, has shown the most commendâ€" able interest and attention to every phase of mining and the mining inâ€" dustry. If it had any bearing on the mining industry, that subject would be sure to receive close attention from Hon. Mr. MeCrea. The Minisâ€" ter of Mines has spent his time and his talent in telling the world of the great possibilities of the North Land as a mining country. He has builtâ€" up confidence and faith in the mining THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO For Prevention of Disease . and Accidents in the Mines industry. He has made it plain that the Government will see that all conâ€" cerned are fairly treated in every way One of the latest matters to engage the thought of Hon. My. MecCrea is the matter of accidents and disease parâ€" ticularly connected with the mining industry. _ While, in comparison to other hazardous occupations, the acâ€" cidents in mining are after all comâ€" paratively few in Ontario, still Hon. Mr. MceCrea‘s thoroughâ€"going ideas follow along the line of thought that nothing should be left: undone to reâ€" duce illâ€"health and accidents among the workers in the mines. *‘*‘Any acâ€" cidents are too many,‘‘ seems to be the attitude of Hon,. Mr. MeCrea and mine owners, mine managers and mine workers will support his ideas along this line. All will agree in the idea of avoiding accidents as much as humanly pos31b1e, but there is always difference of opinion as to the means and methods to be employed to reach this desired end. _ With his usual thoroughness Hon. Mr. MeCrea is md]\mcr a complete investigation from all anvles The Chief Inspector of Mlnes, Mr. T. F. Sutherland, has been commissioned to visit South Africa for the purpose of studying mining operations in the Rand, and particuâ€" larly with the view of suwgestmo imâ€" provements in the Ontario regulaâ€" tions for the prevention of accidents and disease among mine workers. In an interview last week in Toronto, Hon. Mr. MceCrea stated that there was every reason to believe that the provisions of the Mining Act of Onâ€" tario, designed to protect ; the lives and health of working miners, were fairly well observed. _ Still, a number of serious accidents and fatalities occeurâ€" red each year, and that had suggested the advisability of the department obâ€" taining the fullest possible informaâ€" tion regarding measures adopted in Timmins Ran Against a Snag in Disâ€" trict Baseball Last Wednesday. Troquois Falls turned the tables on Timmins on Wednesday last at the Falls, and here, according to The Broke Hustler, Iroquois Falls own newspaper, is how it was done:â€"â€" Iroquois Falls won a game from Timmins here Wednesday night last by the score of ten to one. _ It was the first win of the season for the Falls and naturally there was conâ€" siderable jubilation among the players and the fans alike. It is true that Timmins were minus Sceully and Tate, but the Falls would have anyâ€" wWAaAV. FALLG SGORE WIN AFTER THREE STRAIGHTI LOGSfS Mldue Flanders hurled for the locals and all things considered gave a remarkable exhibition. When one considers that Flanders has not pitched a full game of ball for three years, his holding .the hard. hitting Timmins Club to five well scattered singles was quite a feat. At no time during the game was he in any danâ€" gzer, and his battery mate, Gratton, held him up in fine style. Gratton featured at the bat with two hits, one of them a two bagger, while MceLean‘s fielding for Timmins was also one of the featnre: of the game. There were seven bases stolen, the Falls getting five. The standing of the league now shows â€"Timmins having won three cames and the Falls one. The Falls got away to three runs in the first innings without a hit, two errors, a sacrlfice and a walk domr}' the trick. In the second innings they got two more and thereafter scored one or more runs per innings until the 7th innings. Timmins did not get their solitary â€"tally until the fourth innings. While the fans may have thought the Falls outclassed this year, the old fighting spirit is still there and it is highly probable that the local team will be right in the running. Bartholomew â€" and Moffat again handled the game in a satisfactory manner. Score by Inningsâ€" R, H. E.

Until recently there had been comâ€" paratively little deepâ€"mining in Onâ€" tario, said Hon. Mr. MeCrea, but now it was practically assured that mining operations at Poreupine and Kirkland Lake would be earried on at consider able depths. He pointed out as an obvious fact‘that the hazard in minâ€" ing increases with depth. ‘‘For the most part the shafts in the Rand mines are much deeper than those in Ontario, and the proâ€" blems connected â€"with mining operaâ€" tions at depth on a large scale and the dangers attendant upon them, have been encountered and dealt with in these mines. The skill and techâ€" nical ability possessed by the engiâ€" neers and managers who operate these mines and plants are well known and recognized, and the Government has considered that it would be to the advantage of the mining industry, and in particular to that of the labour employed in our mines if we could have the benefit of a study on the ground of the conditions obtaining in the mines of South Africa, and the methods taken to prevent or control mining hazards. I may enumerate a few of the questions which Mr. Suthâ€" erland‘s study will cover: In concluding the interview Hon Mr. MeCrea is quoted as saying :â€" ‘‘The effect of depth on rock temâ€" peratureâ€"artificial ventilation. ‘‘Silicosis or miners‘ phthisis, and the steps taken to prevent and conâ€" trol it. problem of pressure at depth. Rockâ€"bursts and precautions to be taken. ‘‘The general accident hazard in South African mines and preventative methods adopted. ‘‘The disposal of tailings and methods of fillings. "*The present regulatfons in the Onâ€" tario Mining Act are founded on South African practice. A number of years have passed, however, since these enactments became law, and it is quite possible that in many cases improved methods have come into use.
