A New Tycoon.-Advices from Japan, October
l9, state that Stalfashi had succeeded to the Ty-
cOonate by a proclamation, and would send
an embassy to the Emperor OF Russia, with the
object of defining the boundaries and arranging
the Saghalien difficulties 1t is net improbable
that the embassy to Russia may also have in
view a secret alliance with the Gar to support
the authority of the new Tycoon Russia would
be only too eager for a preteXt to interfere in
succession conflict in Japan, and thus extend
her empire still further Eastward. The des-
patch may, therefore, herald the beginning OF
the end of japanese independence and the ulti
mate absorption of that exclusive empire by the
Western monarchies. |"

Explosion of Boller-Eight Boys Killed.

The Pottsville Miners Journal says:-
"0n Saturday morning last, just before the
hour to commence work had arrived, breaker
liam Kear q Co., Minehill Gap, exploded with
terrific violence, blowing everything in its i'm
mediate vicinity to atoms, killing eight boys,
slate-pickers, whose ages ranged from II to l8
named Good, and several boys. The cause of
the explosion is unknown. The names of the
boys killed are George II. Clemens, William Ed
wards, Richard Welsh, Michael Welsh, James
Ryan, E. Lawler, and John Welsh. The
name of boy who was wounded and died sub
seQuently We have not learned. 1t is thought
that several others who were wounded cannot
recover, as their injuries are of a very serious
character. 1t seems that the boys had collected
in the boiler house before going to work, to
warm themselves, and that they were in the
house when the explosion took place. This is
one of the most terrible accidents OF the kind
that ever happened in this county"
