CANADA, says the New York Sun, Is
getting o and more disguised with
Government railway management.
The conductors Of the International
are appointed for political reasons, and
know as much about . train as the
average oficeholder knows about book
keeping. Ballast trains have been run
without conductors, and many colli-
sions have occurred. caused by the
reckless running Of special trains. A.
neither freight nor passenger cars 60
much faster than All ordinary stage
coach collisions don't generally result
In great damage. The experience with
Government railways In Canada Is
no: likely to encourage those who
want the experiment tried In the
United States.

Accident In the Raymond & Ely Mine.

The Phoebe Record Of the 2sth instant
gives the following account OF q very
nearly fatal accident which occurred
In the above mine last Saturday
About noon yesterday there was an
explosion of giant powder In the tenth
level Of the Raymond s. Ely mine, by
which three men were more or less III
jured, and from the force Of the explo-
Sion the wonder Is that the three were
not killed. 1t seems that there were
some twelve pounds Of the powder at
tho station, and by some mistake a few
caps were near the powder. BY acct
dent the powder became ignlted, and
when the fire reached the caps the ex-
plosion followed. Marsh Pierce, a
man we'll known and respected here,
was one Of the men injured. Pierce,
with a bucket of water, RAJ trying to
put out the fire. and thereby received
the greatest injury. Both eyes are
very considerably injured, but 1t Is
hoped they are not beyond the power
OF the physicians to restore them. His
other Injuries do not appear serious.
Jacob Henry, another Of the men In
the drift, had his hands burned consld-
crably, but nothing serious Is likely to
result from the mishap to him. II
will be some time, however, before he
RECEIVERS entirely. John O'Brien also
had his left hand burned. and M eye
somewhat injured. 1t Is Of course i'm
possible for even medical gentlemen
to determine what will be the result
of injuries to ones eye. The attend
Ing physicians will bring all their
skill TO bear In efforts to restore those
delicate organs to usefulness, while
friends Of the injured parties hope for
a successful result. Tho news Of the
explosion spread through the streets
with great rapidity. and when 1t be-
came generally known that a prema-
ture explosion had taken place In the
Raymond & Ely mine the greatest
excitement prevailed.
The conclusion must have been tre-
mendous, as 1t drove a hole through a
u Inch piece Of sheet iron, and sent
rocks In every direction, many stones
being buried In the surrounding tim
bers. The men In drifts running from
the ninth level were thrown down by
the force Of the explosion, but none OF
these were injured.
