SHUT Up IN FURNACE.-Sap Hearley is a

MIR. 4. II, Welsh in the Little building on Balti-
more street. He is also engaged to attend to
the furnace connected with the building Yes
terday morning about o'clock, while repair

furnace and warm his hands before the fire
that was at the end opposite the door. He had
hardly entered the furnace before a violent
gust of wind blowing through the room dashed
The iron door shut with hideous bang, and
fastened the poor boy in what seemed a sure
and horrible grave, for the flames were spring
ing up rapidly. The closing of the furnace
door opened the draught automatically. The
doomed boy raised a wall of heartrendng de-
began kicking against the iron door DeSper
alton put tenfOld power in his leg. He kicked
long and well; he kicked hard and true; he
kicked as mortal never kicked before. The
door began to tremble on its hinges one more
lunse and it flew open, and the boy Sprang,out

:. England Must Look TO Herself

RECONCILIATION OF RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA.
Prince Bismarck receives the credit of the
Intervention that has for the present tided
over the difficulties so apparent q week ago.
The Austrian cabinet council had decided to
refer the question of the partial mobilization
OF the army if the question of the congress
was not soon settled. A second council decided
TO appeal to the good offices of Prince Bis
marck, upon whose representations an early
date was fixed for the meeting. All danger OF
an AuStrO Russian conflict is avoided, and the
chances of an Anglo Austrian alliance greatly
diminished. The reconciliation of Russia and
Austria will be completed at the Conference
according to the correspondent of the London
Telegraph at Vienna, who also SAYS that Eng
land must look to herself, as she has interests
at stake which she will certainly be called
upon to defend. There is not statesman out
side of those directly concerned who does not
admit the chief object of the triple alliance to
be the annihilatiOn of the British influence
abroad.
IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS YESTERDAY
Lord Derby appealed to Lords Stratheden and
Campbell not to bring on their motion that the
terms of the armiStice justify the govern
ment in taking any precautionary proceed
lngS to discourage The sncrOachmentS on the
treaties of 1876 and ISL Lord Derby said the
government was not prepared to discuss the
armiStlce. He stated that Admiral Horribly
had withdrawn the feet to MOudavia bay on
account OF better anchorage and better tele-
graphic communication. There were no
further adviceS of the Russian advance on
COnStantinople, but Information had been re-
ceiyed regarding projected advance on
GallipOli.
