Just had j T.. VI. an interview with john
Mackey. lie says: have been through
all the mines tins morning. and they are
all right There Is no gas or fire in any
way connected with the Gould and Cur
ry mlnc. Work will be commenced on
the Gould and Curry mine tomorrow
or the day after. Work will b" COM
mcnccd IN the way of hosting ore in
the = Virginia within sixty days.
Meanwhile about three hundred
tons will b. hoIstcd daily through
Gould " Curry shalt from Consolidated
Virginia mine, and we will employ about
800 men immediately. We have been
employing on the Consolidated Virginia
700 men, but 400 of these, together with
those employed ut the Consolidated Nlr-
ginia mill, must remain idle. II the
Ophur had not been burned, We could
have hoistrd through their shaft ~ we'll

look more cheerful to day than they did
yesterday, and by spring everything will
be running H. well, il not better, than
they did before the lire. Many mechan-
les and laborers will have to 20 to Cali
fnrnia and return in the spring. This
they probably would hav" done even if
no tire had taken place.
The work ofcolIcctiuc and forwarding
reicl to Virginia City has been going on
vigorously today. Srvrra. thousand
dollars have now been collected, the citi.
zcus and corporations, and especially the

Help for the Virginia city Sufferers.

SAN Francisco, October 2S.-The
Pacific Stock Exchange have started 3
subscription for the Virginia City suffer
ers, and expect to raise four or five thous-
and dollars. At meeting tonight at
Palace Hotel Senstors Sharon and Jones
and Mayor Otis and many prominent
citizens, were appointed n committee to
concert measures of relief.
1t is stated that the insurance on the
Virginia property has been greatly un-
der estimSted, and that the total loss Of
the companie: cannot fall short Of two
millions of dollars. 1t Is feared one or
two local companies may go under.
y special TO the call this evening says
the Could * Curry mine is tull
OF gas and that the men cant
go down. Work has stopped
in the mine. Mackcy, OF the firm OF
Flood IL OBrlen, SAYS no ere will be
nolstcd from the damaged mines before

TEXAS.
The Steamship City OF Waco.

Galveston, November 10. The steamer Buck
Thorn was despatched outside again at 3 o'clock,
this morning, in search of the missing passengers
and crew Of the City of Waco. Capt. Sawyer the
agent OF gAe Mallory line, also started out on
board pilot boat, in search of the missing boats.
The only hope now entertained for the safety Of
the passengers and crew are, that the lire was be-
low and between decks, in which case it may have
been burning some time and given the passengers
and crew ample time to have left the ship before
the flames reached the upper deck and were dis
covered by other vessels.
1t Is thought that the passengers and crew may
have escaped in the darkness on board the ships
small boats before the fire on board was seen from
the Fusy ANA and the steamship San Marcos. In
this event they would have driGted with the sea
about 80 or 40 miles westward before the VIVID
changed to the northwest.
The English steamer Abdiel has just come in
from outside. She was anchored directly to the
eewald of the Waco. Her mate I, ports that the
fire was discovered about II o'clock, the ship APP
pearing to he one mass of flames The officers OF
the Abdiel Immediately ordered the steam up and
their small boats in readiness for assistance. As
soon as steam could be made the Abdel moved
alongside the burning ship, as near as her officers
dared TO go. They state that not person was to
be seen on her, and they do not think it possible
for one of her small boats TO have been launched.
The Waco was rolling feartully, and storm, sparks
and cnders were flying over and past the Abdiel
The officers of the Abdiel placed lights i'll their
small boats and had them in readiness to launch.
Her crew were on the watch for any of the Waco's
people, but none were en- or heard The mate says
that the fire on the Waco seemed to spread over
the entire vessel in few minutes. He thinks she
was first struck by lighting, which ignted the oil
on board and burned everything on the upper
decks before the passengers and crew could have
left their berths and reached the small boats.
$50 p. m. The steam tug Buck Thorn has Just
returned from outside. Capt. Irwin saw one of
the Wacos boats which had been considerably
burned and toltpu off and stems and mecca
of her cabin. There was no trace of any OF the
passengers or crew. 1t is reported tonight that
when the steam ting Clinton passed the Australian
living the mouth of the San Bernard river, yes
terdsy, she signalled, but the Clinton not
knowing Of the Waco disaster did not stop.
Hopes are entertained that some OF the Wacos
people may be saved on board the Australian. If
the pilot boat, which i. cruising in that vicn
ity. does not reach here, there will be another
steamer despatched westward to morrow.

Eulogy on the late Bish op Bacon.

! EulOgy on the late Bish op Bacon.
| Portland, November 10. \ eulogy was pro
nounccd to-day, in the Portland cathedral, by
Rev. William keegan, pastor of the Church of the
| Assumption, Brooklyn, on the occasion of The
first annual requiem for the late Bishop Bacon
Of the diocese of Portland, and the placing Of 8
! tablet TO commemorate his virtues.
| The text was Ecclesiasticus chap XIV, verses
| to {, inclusive
| The prophet n tins text referred to the many
noble virtues of Enoch, Abraham, Isaac and
others of the priesthood Of the old law. But his
words we've intended to apply to men Of every
age and every cline, who serve God faithfully, no
matter what may be their sphere of action,
| whether high or low. If, in our day, any man
deserved the enconiums of the prophet and the
plaudts of his fellow men, if any man performed
with fidelity the task assigned him. that man was
Bishop Bacon. IL was a man rich in virtue; he
loved the beautiful and lived in peace.
An allusion full Of tenderness and sorrow was
made 10 the last resting place OF the late bishop,
over which the monumental tablet was to be
erected, the shrine upon which all eyes will rest,
as Sabbath after Sabbath the congregation gathers
in the place of worship.
The bishops faithfulness as guide to the pco-
pie of his church and TO the speaker, were dwelt
upon at length His church labors in Brooklyn
for p years were instanccd as a model of devo-
ton, conscientiousness and fidelity.
Incidents Illustrating the tact and holiness of
the bishop in prosecuting his work and averting
disturbance from outside opponents were related.
His earnest and successful efforts to build up his
church, to improve and beautify the buildings,
also received apprcciative acknowledgment. His
Christian patience under agonizing torture was
remarkable, and an index of the man.
LATER.
The fist annual requiem mass for the late Bisb-
op Bacon was celebrated in the cathedral Of the
Immaculate Conception, to-day The services
commenced with the Pontitcial mass of requiem.
Bishop Healey otfciated as celebrant, assisted by

A handsome catafa,que was placed in the broad

the crozier OF the late bishop, at the other end
beautiful floral cross.
A tablet which had been erected to the memory
Of the late bishop, was also dedicated with appro
pirate ceremonies. A large number of priests
were in attendance, and the cathedral was crowded
With interested spectators.
