Document - MINING ACCIDENTS - PREVENTION OF MINING ACCIDENTS
Handwritten extracts from the Bendigo Advertiser Tuesday June 3rd 1872. Extract mentions we trust the Gov't is not so absorbed in the details of the new Electoral Bill and other measures which have been introduced as to forget their promise tobring forward a Bill for the Regulation of Mines and the prevention of Mining Accidents. The owners being indifferent, incapable, powerless and the miners so reckless, steps need to be taken to compel them to take the necessary precautions.document, gold, mining accidents, mining accidents, prevention of mining accidents, bendigo advertiser 3/6/1872, regulation of mines -

Handwritten extract from the Bendigo Advertiser 5/12/1893 where three miners had a narrow escape in a winding accident at the Huster's Reserve No 2 Company's Mine, in Pall Mall. At the change of shift, three miners, William Merrin, Frederick Willoughby and E. Johns got into the cage on the western compartment to be lowered to the 845 ft. plat. The Driver Russel lost control of the engine and hauled the empty cage in the eastern compartment to the poppet heads. Cage went up with a crash, but the safety hooks caught it and let the rope go. The men in the cage in western compartment were very alarmed has cage hit the bearers on the 845 feet plat with considerable force. If it had crashed through the bearers they would have landed in the water below. The shaft was 1070 feet deep. The Mine Manager, S. T. Glanville ordered the driver off the mine; another rope re-attached and the men hauled to the surface.document, gold, mining accidents, mining accidents, sensational winding accident at the hustler's reserve no 2 co, william merrin, frederick willoughby, e johns, driver russell, s t glanville -
