The Grant Movement Reached n
Climax.

Climax.
NEW YORK, January Q.
Actual resumption has materially modl
fed the Eastern movement for Grants re
nomination to the Presidency. There Is
general opinion among the shrewdest IL
forecasting the Political future, that tll'
Grant movement has reached a climax
just after the Maine election, when a feai
was aroused that the Greenbackers, by OBJ
tanning control of Congress, might or
game q hostile demonstration of laboi
, against capital. This led to u desire for q
strong man at the head of the Govern.
ment, one who would be likely to take I'M
usual responsibility but the November
elections have shed the fears which sug-
gcsted such a necessity, now that resump-
ton is believed to assure renewed indus
trial prosperity. The public tendency is
/ towards candidates whose experience is
supposed to fit them for the solution of q
political economic problem.

Supposed to be Killed.
PIrTsBUEG, Pa, January Q.
At 7 o'clock this morning, just after the
miners had descended into the Pennsyl-
vania Coal Company's shaft No. 4, near
this place, a terrible explosion occurred
near the carriage way, by which several

There has been, for q few days, a great
change going on in a few mines adjoining
No. 4, making itself visible upon the sur
face, by immense c~revices topping over a
school-house, dwelling, etc. The gas
forced itself in No. 4, and when Peter
Daley, the mine boss. opened the door
leading to the old workings, an explosion
took place that shook the earth in the vi
cinity with terrific force. The mining
boss is burned terribly, and Patrick Lotus
is severely injured. The remainder Of the
miners were i'll another chamber, and es-
capped. 1t will probably take two weeks to
get the shaft into working order.
