Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - July 13, 1914, Winnipeg, Manitoba Manitoba free press. Winnipeg. Monday evidence and Lay greatest stress on question of ventilation efficiency. -1201 merest. Alta., july the up of counsel this morning into the Hillcrest mine which 189 men were killed 19 came to an end. The Tak 89 f evidence has lasted eight Days. His Honor j. R. Palm for the miners said i feel ff.cou.-. Inadvisable to try and in the evidence of the sex has got sucl1 a firm of the situation that i can give assistance in that regard. I0" Oloye to my clients to state of r Man have i realized that this is a prosecution. Anything we have out reflecting on the mine was simply to assist your in arriving at a conclusion. finding the cause we need go than or. Fraser s evidence. K considers the explosion was caused w is propagated through the mine dust. He does not Ned the cause i ignition and i think your Nonor a justified in concluding the son occurred where or. Eraser same. Drinnan practically is he would not be inclined to Sug any other place of origin. Some the things that would have been liked for by . Drinnan were found or Sterling. Regarding cooking l there Are several circumstances should consider on the morning in motion evidence shows there was a amount of Gas in the Workings. To Mist have surprised your Honor Tod it was there in such Large Quan this not Only effects the re Mit but gives a practicable Demon Stion of the probabilities. Or. Fraser concluded there must have beef considerable Gas in the raise and he based his whole conclusions on that intention. The Are Bosses evidence in fact. My Learned mend or. Macleod would have you Iell Svi the explosion was caused into seen circumstances. I think your Honor would have difficult in. Sudan this. I think it. Rental to assume trial the company should have information supplied by their own fire Bosses. Your Honor must be affected by the principle Hen Woof would affect the where this proof is lacking we must assume they could not produce that evidence i think we May assume that had the fan been working on this morning and the. Two preceding the company would have produced that evidence. I think there can be no doubt that if the fan was working at the time it would have taken at least two hours to remove that Gas. The. Circumstances co uld Knob have been 30 unforeseen. Evidence of danger. In room 32, two Ore a red shots were band and had not been fired. The find. Ing of these shots must make us con clude that the fire Boss decided not to Fira these on account of some Dan Gerjus conditions. The ventilation of Ihei mine is most . If it ts3 All that could be desired there Soffle not be such an accumulation of 815. Or. Drinnon hav been the Only witness who did cot actually admit and i think that mr., Drinnan in All cases where he was careful not to Sive any evidence that would have reflected on the company where he was at All doubtful. No inflection could be made on the District because conditions not right because conditions changed after their inspection one fan push lne the other exhaust ing. Or. Fraser or. Aspinall Sterling were emphatic in stating that the ventilation was not perfect. We should be governed by the men who actually saw. In regard to. The course taken by the air currents in relation to the stopping the bears out the position taken by . Fraser. Or. Palmer quoted from a letter by a brother of or Quigley where he says that ventilation is of greatest import Ance in avoiding an explosion. Re Garding the splits or. Fraser has testified there were two or. Aspinall three or. Brown four. Or. Drinnan four or five but this has Only rela Tion to the number of men on the in lots. I think my Learned Friend showed poor Grace in Cross heckling or. Fraser on supplied by he company when Thov defused to she us More information regard. It the number of men working in the afferent sections. J would take occasion of the organization i represent of ranking Yoiiro Honor or the Courtesy you shown us. I think your Honor has prone to considerable Kalns to ret a firm a grasp of , and i assure Vou we appreciate it. Company s View. In making his address Colin Muc Geod counsel for the mine company said i think the inference to be drawn from the Lack of evidence re Garfink the fan should be that it was working. Unfortunately the Only per sons who can Sive evidence in that re Gard Are dead. It is entirely beyond 1 of the fire Bosses to give regarding the whereabouts of the men in the different of the mine. R v ijf5 method of a of thing at the number working in no. Fart n0t take account of the me had moved from mme to another and were checked in a Dis Frh ution. One mine with two or 9 this is is of inv in or and evidence showing the absence must prevail that the the right one that of unforeseen caused the explosion ing in. His. Evidence Ofira f ulal could explosion. The evidence of per to Lif should be accepted i preference to any opinion of sex v. Drinnan frankly stated not make and assume fit override the statements of the fir. K ses we contend that the fl3ses have stated what actually standi tact from or Fraser s any opinion Given by him serves respect if Given fairly Buth w exaggerated his premises there Al Tate conclusions must be Equall admitted that was Ai Ion.
