Tho Price of Coal-Cheering Prospects.
The coal men-those spectators who prey
upon the necessities of the poor-are endea-
voring to get up fictitious advance in the
price of coal. Thus, at the auction sale yes
terday, they managed to obtain higher price
than that Of last month, although 1t is known
fact that so far from there being any probability
of scarcity during the fall and winter there will
be an abundance. There are actually million
more tons of coal on hand than there were at
this time last year. All the mines are at work
in a most satisfactory manner. The miners
are contented and Industrious. All tho
attempts on the part of the monopolists to get
up an advance of price on the plea Of strikes,
and distractions on the part of the laborers,
have therefore proved futile. All the indica-
tons now 60 to show that coal will maintain
moderate price this coming winter. Still we
should not advise people to put off the purchase
of their winter stock too long. There is no
knowing to what tricks the heartless coal mono
polists may resort to establish extortionate
prices In midwinter. 1t Is their habit to do
this thing, and they onght to be watched, aod
if possible, outfanked.

FALL OF A BUILDING.
How Brooklyn Architectural Piles Totter and
Fall.

How Brooklyn Architectural Piles Totter and
Fall.
Shortly after four O'Clock yesterday morning the
residents OF the lower part Of Fulton street were
startled by heavy crashing sound. Investigation
of the cause showed that the noise was occasoned by
the falling out Of large portion OF the front wall OF
and Columbia streets, owned by Joseph II. Mumby
and occupied as -four and feel warehouse by that
gentleman. 1t appears that upon the third
story OF the bnildiDg, where large guam
thy of wheat and corn was stored,
the ratters gave way suddenly from the
extraordinary weight and pressure Of the grain,
causing the front wall to bulge out and then pre-;
clpitate a large mass Of brick mortar, lath and
grain to the sidewalk beneath. Fortunately there
was nobody passing at that early hour In the day or
there might have been one or more fatal casualties
to record. Captain Mcconnell and squad Of police
were speedily on the scene and formed a barricade
about the dilapldated structure the walls OF which
threatened to make further. descent to- the
sidewalk. Orders were placed about the sides Of
the building and wOrkmen were engaged to
all further weight from the upper stories OF
the building. This Is the second brick building which
ment OF the glrders In Brooklyn within the past
month. The falling of the Hamilton Market building
was more disastrous In Its result as the life of q
young girl was SACRIFICED upon that OCCASION The
fact that there IS derelcti0n OF duty the part of
the official who Is supposed to discharge the duties
OF the Office OF Superintendent Of Buildings is
made strlKlngly apparent By this last catas-
trOphe. The Nfumby building was by no means
adapted Tor the storage Of heavy material, a fact
which ought to have been ascertained before the
accident made 1t patent to the public 1t Is lmpos-
stble to say how many more such catastr0phes may
occur through similar neglccJ. from want OF proper
inspection OF dangerous buildings of this kind The
taken down entirely to avoid the possibility OF re-
currence Ot the mishap OF yesterday.

The Occnn Yacht Race.

The long agony is oyer. The great inter-
national ocean yacht race is completed and
the British yacht Cambria has unfurled her
victorious colors before the headquarters of
the New York Yacht Club, where she re-
ceved yesterday a strangers welcome. II
the result of the race does no. fully satisfy
yachtmen on the relative sailing qualities of
the two vessels, it will perhaps demonstrate the
fact that the northern course westward across
the Atlantic is preferable to the long southern
course in midsummer.
The race was closely contested there being
less than two hours difference in the time OF
the two yachts reporting at the lightship of
Sandy Hook. This, for race Of three thou
sand miles, consuming over twenty three days
of time, is most extraordinary.
We are panied in having to chronicle the
loss of two noble seamen of the Dauntless,
who were swept off her jIbboom while in the
performance of their duty. The Dauntless
Law to over two hours in the hope of recovering
the unfortunate men, but all efforts were fruit
less, and their bodies were left In the grave Of
the deep ocean. We must foreg0 comment on
the race at present, and refer to our full and
graphic accounts iN another portion of the
paper.

The Board Of nsaI,h and Quarantine.

Tho Board or Health and Quarantine.
The very important subject of quarantine
was properly taken up by the Board of Health
at Its session on Tuesday. Commissioner
MullaIy laid before the Board the facts hith-
erto published in the HERALD In regard TO-
ships that jump the Quarantine by way Of
Perth Amboy and come to our wharves with
yellow fever on board, in reckless violation Of
law, and on the dimsy pretence that they sup
pose the certificate Of the Health Onacer of
Perth Amboy to be an authority for what they
may DO ID this port. The Board Of Health
passed resolution instructiug the Sanitary
Inspector to withhold all permits from ships
without the usual certificate OF the Health
Onicer of the port. This, it was thought by
the Board, was the limit Of Its power In the
premises, as 1t is not charged with any super
vision Of seagoing vessels, except in cases
where they come directly to the wharves, or
where 1t ID proposed TO land from them pack
ages to come into the city. This agrees with
the opinion we have hitherto expressed, that
the Health Officer himself is the sole deposit
tary Of all the power of the laws for preserv-
Ing the health Of the city 30 far as
they bear upon incoming ships, and Ia
authorized to enforce these laws by every
necessary means. To him the ships that
have come up by way Of Perth Amboy
are ships that have not passed quarantine,
and he must not walt for their option to come
and submit themselves to quarantine laws. He
must send his force and take them, and if he
encounters resistance he must call upon the
nearest police authority or upon the Governor.
He will certainly commit great error If he is
led aside by any ill-judged leniency toward
these law breakers. Nothing less is at stake
in this matter than the safety Of this city and
the supremacy of the laws. Ships are arriv-
ing every day from the yellow fever ports of
South and Central America, and every one is
an infected ship, while some have cases Of
fever on board at the time Of their arrival. 5
By this hocuS pociis of quarantine at Perth
Amboy" these ships defy the laws made for
their detention and come directly to the
wharves Of this city or of Brooklyn. If this
continues we cannot pass through the summer
without an epidemic of yellow fever, and,
therefore, it must not continue, whatever be
the cost of preventing it.

THE TROUBLES IN NORTH CARoLINA.-A
number Of United States troops have been
sent to Raleigh, N. c., and as they were sent
at Governor Holden's request, he being the
only person whose request could constitu-
tionally be complied with, it Is evident that
they are intended to aid the militia, who, so
far, have proved competent to hold their own
without any aid from the general government.
We hardly think Governor Holden apprehends
serious resistance from the people, except in
the courts of law, where they are certainly
combating him very resolutely, having made
motion, which will be decided to-day, to at
taeh him for refusing to obey the writ OF
habeas corpus.

A MARES NEST IN EURopE.-t is very
funny to hear of the fuss they are making In
England over what they call "the secret
treaty" proposed by Napoleon to Prussia, and
funnier still to hear them denounce the es-
pecial villany of Napoleon as exhibited in
these propositions. Why, there is not line
in this compact but has been banded about
Europe between its several rulers for ten
years, and If there is any villany in thus dis
cussing the division of nations no one y guilt

GENERAL ONEILL, the Fenian leader in the
late raid, has finally been indicted at Windsor,
VT, and will be tried to-day. In view of the
ridicule that was cast upon the doughty Gen.
eral for his inglorious capture, his long con-
6nement and the statement that he makes
that he is reduced to poverty, we would
counsel moderation in the punishment to be
pronounced against him. We feel pretty
certain he will never invade Canada again.

WALL STREET. THE WAR NEWS AND THE
YACHT RAoE.-The very warlike look of such
an act as the proclamation Of the regency Of
the Empress Eugene revived the waning
activity of the Gold Room yesterday morning,
and the ''bulls" put the price up to 1924 on
the strength of it. Favorable advices from the
London money market produced an eventual
reaction to 12l. In the afternoon the general
attention Of the street was diverted to the
yacht race by the thousand and one kilograms

coming in sight and were each in turn believed
to be the racing vessels until proved to be

MIR. Gladstone ON the Present state Of the
Alabama Claims Question.
From the reply Of the British Premier to
Mr.. McCulloch Torrens in the House of Com
mons as to the state of the Alabama claims
question we understand precisely where the
hitch is that prevents negotiations. Mr.. Glad
stone said the case stood just where It did q
year and q half ago, at the time the United
States declined the offer made by England, and
that tho next advance for a settlement was due
from the American government. The British
government waits then, for some action or pro-
position from the United States for reopening
negotiations. We hope Mr.. Frelinghuysen, If
he Is going to London, will be instructed to
make definite proposition, or If he should
not accept the appointment Of Minister to
England that some other able statesman will be
appointed at once with like instructions. The
responsibility Of keeping open this question is
noU1(rown directly upon our government by
th6 ofncial declaration of Mr.. Gladstone In the
House of Commons. We cannot let the blame
rest upon us. To do so would show weakness
and indecision. It would be said that we do
not know what we want, or that we are
captious.
In the first place, negotiations for the settle
ment Of the question should be conducted
in Washington, and whoever may be sent as
Minister to London should propose this as the
first step. Negotiations having failed 10 Eng
land, let them be tried at Washington. There
may be some difficulty in making out bill of
damages in dollars for the actual loss by
destruction of American vessels by the Alaba-
ma and the other British built corsairs,
though this is but small portion OF the dam
age really done. But, we suppose, this loss
can be pretty accurately ascertained from the
claims of ship owners fled in Washington. At
any rate the amount can be ascertained
This, then, would be the first bill of items.
That should be presented and the amount de-
manded. But for the other and greater
damage, in the destruction of our maritime
interests and commerce, settlement might be
reached through negotiations for the transfer
Of the British possessions In America to the
United States. The damage was national,
rather than individual, IN this respect and such
q settlement would have national character.
The Inevitable destiny of the British American
colonies is annexation to the United States.
Within comparatively short time the Ameri-
can republic must become continental Power
by the absorption of adjacent territories, and
if England be wise she will take this oppor
tunity to settle all difficulties with us and
cement lasting friendship by giving up her
American colonies. AS part of the United
States they will become more valuable to her
and to the world than they are now
or ever could be under colonial rule. Mr..
Gladstone and the other far-seeing statesmen
of England may not be unfavorable to such
and we advise General Grant to
present the question and to ask for settle
ment on this broad ground

Captain Halps New Arctic Expedition.

Congress, before its recent adjournment,
voted an appropriation of fifty thousand dollars
to enable Captain Hall, the Arctic explorer,
to make third journey of thirty months in
the frozen regions which he has done so much
to make known to the world This vote is
highly commendable, not only as an act Of JUS
tice to Captain Hall, in view Of desperate but
Intellectual struggles to prevent it. but also as
a tribute to the vast importance of purely
scientific explorations. The direct no less than
the indirect practical benefits of such explora-
tons are attested by history. While, how
ever, Captain Halls next expedition will be
planned and executed mainly for the promotion
of science and general knowledge, it will not
lack an element of interest for the heart as
well as the head. 1t will afford an opportunity
for still further research as to the fate of Sir
John Franklin and his companions. Not only
valuable records of their unfortunate attempt
to discover the Northwest Passage, but mes
sages of farewell, precious, indeed, 10 Lady
Franklin and others widowed or orphaned by
the loss of the expedition that left England in
1914, may be found We reproduced yester-
day, from the Cincinnati Enquirer, an inter-
estng description Of the visit of Lady Franklin
to Captain Hall, and her hearty welcome in
Ohio, on her arrival from Alaska via Cali
fornia. This venerable lady, whose devotion
to the memory of her lamente1 husband will
fill one Of the most pathetic pages in the annals
of modern times, is expected to arrive to-day
In New York, where her romantic and tragic
story must command equal sympathy.

We have ample reports by cable kilograms
from the seat Of war in Europe. The de-
spatches speak again Of skirmishing and some
few prisoners. There was no battle, so far as
was made known at an early hour this morn
Ing King William Of Prussia Joined the Ger
man forces yesterday. Russia, Il is alleged,
at the instance Of Napoleon, asked in Berlin
on what terms peace could be arranged.
The answer of Prussia was conveyed in four
words--"It is too late" An ominous sentence.
The Emperor of France called out ninety thou
sand additional troops-an army contingent
whose term Of service would be due In
short time under any circumstances.
The neighboring Powers remain watchful,
but neutral Rumors, political and specula-
lative, abounded on all sides. It was said,
indeed, that Napoleon had quilted Paris pri
vately in order to join tho French feet at sea,
with the intention Of spending his Jate day,
which occurs In August, In Berlin. The EN-
press Eugene is named Regent of France.
The matter Of the secret treaty engaged a
large share of public attention, the British
press using the opportunity Of its publication
to warn Belgium Of probable coming danger.
The European crisis thus remains, as will be
seen, anxiously fevered and without any ap-
pearance of an immediate solution.
