Pressure increases going down due to the weight of the air above pushing down on the air below. This results in an increase in the number of air molecules above a given point, leading to a greater force being exerted on that point, which increases the pressure.

Pressure certainly does increase in a water line going down hill. This is because the weight of the water pulls it.

What changes in air pressure would you expect if you carried barometer down a mineshaft?

As you descend down a mineshaft, the air pressure would increase due to the weight of the air above you pressing down. This is because air pressure is directly proportional to the density of the air above a given point. The barometer would register a higher pressure reading as you go deeper into the mineshaft. Conversely, as you ascend back to the surface, the air pressure would decrease, resulting in a lower pressure reading on the barometer.
