THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE.

[SEPT. 11

any part of the workings in connection with the
survey of the mine, or for the guidance of the work-
men in their operations. All workers are forbidden
to displace, injure, or damage in any way the coal-
stoops, props, hutches, rails, or any part of the
machinery, gearing, or apparatus.
35. Blasting is strictly prohibited, unless with the
express permission of the manager.
36. Meetings of miners and other workmen in a
body within the workings, or in any of the roads or
air-courses of the mine, are strictly prohibited.
37. No workman shall be permitted to enter or to
continue in or about the mine or works while in a
state of intoxication. No intoxicating liquor, on
any pretence whatever, shall be taken into the mine.

RULES DESIGNED TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS FROM
FIRE-DAMP.

  1. The manager may at any time order that work
    in the mine or in any particular portion thereof shall
    be carried on with safety-lamps only, and in such
    cases stations will be fixed upon by the manager
    where the safety-lamps will be examined. From
    these stations no workman is to take a safety-lamp
    without it having been examined by the person
    appointed for that purpose.

  2. The manager and overman shall have full
    power to direct the workmen how to use their safety-
    lamp during the time of working, and it is particu-
    larly enjoined that every workman strictly attend to
    such directions.

  3. Should any workman using a safety lamp de-
    detect, by the usual indications, the appearance or pre-
    sence of fire-damp, he is first to pull down the wick
    with the pricker, and then retreat to the lamp-station
    and give information to the manager, overman, or
    fireman.

  4. Workmen are strictly prohibited from con-
    tinuing to work in a place where such indications
    have been observed by them; and, should the flame
    continue in the interior of the lamp after the wick
    has been drawn down, the lamp must then be cau-
    tiously removed, and no attempt made to extinguish
    the flame by any other means.

  5. Every miner, hewer, putter, or other person
    whatever in charge of a safety-lamp losing his light,
    is to take it himself to the station where the lamps
    are examined, to be relighted and examined before
    being again used.

  6. It is expressly directed that any person wit-
    nessing any improper treatment of the safety-lamps
    by any one shall give immediate information to the
    manager in charge of the mine, so that a recurrence
    of such conduct may be prevented, by the offending
    party being brought to justice.

  7. Any person found smoking tobacco in any
    part of the mine where the safety-lamp is used,
    or found with a tobacco-pipe in his possession, shall
    be liable to be taken before a Magistrate.

  8. Matches shall not be taken into the mine under
    any pretence whatever.

  9. Every person using a safety-lamp is to take it
    home at the end of each shift for the purpose of
    having it properly cleaned before using again.

  10. If at any time it is found that the mine or any
    part thereof, by reason of fire-damp or any other
    cause whatever, is dangerous, the manager, overman,
    or foreman, whichever shall first be made aware of
    the same, shall immediately order all workmen to
    withdraw from the mine, or such part thereof as is
    so found dangerous; and the manager, overman, or
    foreman shall, if the danger arises from fire-damp,
    inspect the same with a safety-lamp, and make a true
    report of the condition of such mine or part thereof,
    and workmen shall not, except so far as may be
    necessary for inquiring into the cause of danger, or
    for the removal thereof, or for examination, be read-
    mitted into the mine, or such part thereof as may be
    so found to be dangerous, until the same is reported
    not to be dangerous. Every such report shall be
    entered in the Mine Registry, and signed by the
    person making the same.

  11. The workmen employed in the mine may from
    time to time appoint two of their number to inspect
    the mine, and the persons so appointed shall be
    allowed, once at least in every week, accompanied by
    the manager of the mine, or the overman or fireman
    of the mine, to go to every part of the mine and
    inspect the workings, both old and new, and the
    meaus for ventilation of the mine, and shall be
    afforded every facility for the purpose of such in-
    spection. A true report of the result of such inspec-
    tion shall be made in the Mine Registry, and shall be
    signed by the persons who made the same.
