The accident to Andrew Olson on
the submarine emphasizes the fact
among miners who worked there as
to the treacherous reputation of this
ground. There have been more
caveins and accidents in the subma
rine mining than in any other sec
tion. This is said to be due to the
clay horses which run in layers over
gravel and which the utmost caution
and care fails to detect as danger
ous. The slabs of clay, too, break
right up to the face of the stopev
and it has happened that an entire
crew coming back to work after tin
noon hour found the entire ground
caved in up to the stope and bury
ing cars, tools and tracks. The
first man to be killed in this way
was in Seiffert and Gibson's ground
in 1908 when Antone Larson was
struck by a huge slab that caved
right on top of him while his morn
prudent partner went after timbers,
not liking the looks of it. Inter
secting the layers of clay are fre
quent stringers of ice which thaw
ing out under the influence of the
steam pipes used in putting in thaws
in the drifts or stopes leave the
ground suspending dangerously, but
responding to no such test as hard
rock men can usually make use of to
detect loose over hanging rock. The
clay slab that is about to fall will
give as solid a sound as that which
is in no danger of caving. For
this reason miners have to exercise
great care.
