Book excerpt: Excerpt from Safety Lamps and Colliery Explosions The fearful explosions which are continually occurring in various parts of the world, notably that of the Universal Colliery in South Wales, the Fraterville coal-mine in Tennessee on the r9th of last May, and lastly the one at the Fernie No. A tunnel workings of the Crow's Nest coal field, on the 22nd of May, about p.m., are sufficient in themselves to cause those who have the charge of mines which give out firedamp, as well as those who have money invested in them, to seriously consider in what way this risk may be lessened, if not almost totally prevented. It is suggested by the newspaper reports on the Fernie disaster, that the explosion originated from blasting in the coal. Similarly it was also suggested that the explosion at the Universal Colliery, Senghenydd, was caused in a similar way, but in the latter case only one witness could be found to suggest that an explosive had originated the disaster, though many witnesses proved that it could not have thus originated, and that it was in all probability caused by a totally different cause, and in a totally different part of the mine. The other cause and in all probability tbc true one, was the failure of a safety lamp to prevent the flame inside the lamp igniting the firedamp outside.
