EVENING TELHsRAPH OYFIoE.l I
Thursday. Dec. 8, 1870.

The local money market is quite active as
usual, but there is tendency to stringency,
which is probably due to the extreme caution of
the banks in discountiDg paper and thus forcing
most of the transactions on the street. The
general impression is that the market will work
closely until after the holidays and that rates
may advance point in consequence, but We do
not anticipate any serious pressure unless the
market should be manipulated by the specula-
tive rings. We quote call loans at soc per
cent. and prime paper at 1909 per cent.
Gold is dull and weak at range of 1000
11O%.
In Government bonds speculation is quiet
though the tendency of the market continues
upward.
The stock market continues active, but prices
are weak. In State and city loans no sales were
made Lehgh Gold Loan was taken at 909s.

A GAS EXPLOSION.
Cinnamon Severely Iniured-Probnble Fatal
Injuries to the tSreat Physlciao Li-Po-Tai

Cinnamon Severely Iniured-.Probnble Fatal
Injuries to the Great Physlciau Li-Po-Tal.
About O'Clock last evening, says the San
Francisco Bulletin of the Goth ult., terrific
explosion occurred in the building on the south
east corner of Clay and Dupont streets. The
building was owned by the great Chinese physi-
clan who, during the past six years, has hum
bugged thousands of Americans, and amassed
a magnificent fortune, and was occupied solely
by Chinese.
HOW THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED.
At the hour above named, DR.. Li-Po-Tai,
accompanied by two other Cinnamon, entered
the house, and going upstairs, proceeded to one
of the front rooms, which was fitted up In
style of gorgeous Chinese elegance. They
opened the door of the room. entered, and the
Doctor taking match, lit 1t for the purpose of
lighting the gas, and there Immediately followed
an explosion, which was most disastrous in its
effects. 1t appears that the person who had
cleaned up the room in the morning had turned
on the gas and it had been escaping all day. and
as the room was almost air-tight, it had become
completely filled with gas, which, commingling
with the atmospheric air, had formed q COM
pound fully as explosive as gunpowder, and
almost terrific in its effects as nitro-glycerine.
WHAT FOLLOWED.
The lighting of the match set fire to the eX-
plosive compound, and loud report followed
every window in the room was shattered to
pieces; the furniture was demolished, and
almost everything in the room was rendered a
total wreck DR.. Li-Po. Tai, who had advanced
farthest into the room, was thrown with great
violence to the floor, and his head, face, arms
and neck burned in a most terrible manner. He
also inhaled volume of flame, and the air pas
sages leading to the lungs were badly burned.
The Chinaman who was Immediately behind
him was also severely burned about the head,
face. and shoulders. He, too, was thrown to
the floor. The third man stood near the door,
and was considerably burned but not near so
badly as either of his companions. Seeing the
explosion, he jumped back and attempted to
ppf down the StairS hut tripDipp fell hpadlOno
to the bottom and sustained severe injuries OF
the head-so severe, in fact that he was unable
to get up.
EXCITEMENT AMONG THE CHINESE.
| The report of the explosion was heard by
| large number of persons, who fastened to the
| spot, and in few minutes several hundred per
| sons had collected. An American physician
was summoned to attend upon the injured
! Cinnamon, and he did all he could to alleviate
! their sufferings, but he informed an attache o
the Bulletin that the injuries of Li-Po-Tai were
! of such character that it was almost impossi
| BILE Tor him to survive.

Meeting of the LesIslature.

SANTA FE, N. NJ, Dec. 7.-Both houses of the
Legislature are now in session, but they merely
meet and adjourn from day to day without
transacting any business, until it can be deter
mined whether the session is legal or not. Some
of the lawyers and nearly all the members of
the Legislature hold that the first of the biennial
sessions provided for by the laws of Congress
can be held now, while Others hold that the
first of these sessions should not be held until
December l, 1871. Inquiries have been sent to
Washington in regard to the dispute.
Mining Excitement.
Considerable excitement has been created
here by the arrival of parties from the Ralston
and Silver City mines with immensely rich spe-
cimens of ore. In a rock of eighty pounds fifty
ounces of silver were obtained Another specimen
yielded ten ounces of silver from % pounds of
rock, and many specimens are estimated as
valuing $4,000 per ton. Quite number of per-
SONS are getting ready to start for these mines.
