POST OFFICE ROBBERY.
A Fight with Que of .he Robbers


WILTON. N a., Sept 12-rhe store of
Alfred E. Jaques, Postmaster was entered last
night by thieves, who blew open the safe aud
money drawer and stole $50 worth of gold
pens, $l75 IN cash, one registered letter and a
large quantity of postage stamps.
Dr. Ireavltt, who keeps q drug store the
third door from the Post Office, was awakened
by the noise OF the explosion, and on reaching
the sidewalk soon met the night watch man,
Michael Kennedy, and both men commenced
an Investigation. They soon discovered man
coming up the stairs near the bank building.
Kennedy was armed, and presenting his
revolver, ordered him to halt He turned,
asked what was wanted, and commenced to
fire at Kennedy, who replied with his revolver,
but 1t missed tire twice. He however got ia
one shot and received through his coat a bullet
from the robber He then pursued
the man to the bridge at Writings mill.
The hiring alarmed the citizens and posse of
men Joined the pursuit, and at Greenville.

THE COLLIERY DISASTER.
Farther Particulars of the Terri

Farther Particulars of the Terrible Affair.
LONDON. Sept. 1.-THE full extent of terri
BILE disaster in the coal mine at Abercome is
| now known. At 30 this morning the flooding
of the pit began. The fire was within short
distance of the bottom of the shaft, and all
hope of further rescue was abandoned. When
the decision was announced to the relatives Of
the 25l men still in the pit, the scene was ter
rible beyond description. Thirteen additional
bodies were recovered before the flooding be-
gan.
Abercome colliery is the property of E. B.
Vale, steel, iron and coal company. one of the
largest iron and coal proprietors in South
Wales. 1t is situated q few hundred yards
from Ambercome railroad station, In the wes-
tern valley section Of Monmouthshire The
largest and best worked in the district, was
yielding 1000 tons of steam coal daily. The
machinery for winding, pumping and venti.
latipg was one of the best kind, and the use of
safety lamps in the mine was rgidly enforced.
The cause of the explosion can only be sur
missed. Three detonations were heard on the
surface. The frame works and castings of the
pit were thrown 300 feet above the mouth of
the shaft The colliery employs upwards of
1000 hands. of whom 337 went down at II a. m.
and Il OF the number came up at noon, up to
which time nothing had occurred to create sus-
picion, At 12.10 loud rumbling noise was
heard. quickly followed by flash of fame
from the pits mouth and column of smoke,
dust and DEBRIS ascending high into the air.
The explosion damaged the winding gear de-
stroying the only means of communication
with the men in the pit. As soon as the gear
ing could be repaired working party was sent
down. and 50 men and boy working within
few hEndard yards OF the shaft were rescued
About 400 yards from the bottom of the shafs
are the stables, and here IA horses were fou I'd
dead. Beyond this point the explorers could
not go on account Of choke.damp. Volunte er
explorers succeeded in bringing out 10 or IL
men very much burned, and also seven. de ad
bodies, but it is feared no others can be for the
present got out, in consequence of the fire ex-
tending, and there remains no reasonable hope
that any further lives will be saved.
