smoke came from the Fan shaft and also
from both hosting and pumping shaft.
It is fully expected that the
fire which now must be raging
fearfully in the mine will soon show itself
from the mouth of the shaft when all the
buildings in the vicinity will be in the
greatest danger. Very great fears are
entertained that the whole workings of
Ford pit will be destroyed. though efforts
are now being made by large gang of
men who are at work digging a trench
to let water into the mine from the river
which is close by; this is a last resort and
it will take good while to get sufficient
water in to drown tho fire. 1t il hoped
that the fire may be confined 10 Ford pit
and prevented from extending to the work
ings of Cage pit, situated half mile west
of Ford pit; the former connected with the
latter by t1nnell. Should these works
be destroyed the effect on the working
classes connected with the mine will bo
terrible, and great misery must result.
The emyloyes of the company number
over five hundred. Others aud more
serious explosions may occur at any time;
the greatest excitement exists.

Truth Sticks.

New York, Nov. II Truth says:
The fact is, and it will yet fully appear. if
the Republican conspirators ever finish
their Star Chamber business, and give the
people whom they are now vilely SANDER
ing an opportunity to meet them. that not
alone Truth but Mr. Barnum, MIR, Hewitt,
Mr.. Price, and all at whom the plotters
are now aiming their libelous shafts, will
come through the ordeal with a purity
which men of dishonest and immoral
habits and unscrupulous practices may
we'll envy. Let these Star Chamber pro.
ceedings, conducted solely to manufacture
material for libelous partisan newspapers
and give the men who are the objects of
their vile attacks an opportunity to meet
their traducers, Nothing more is asked.
But the strait of these Republicans must
indeed be desperate when they go away
beyond the real question OF issue to fix up
Jobs on the defense such as the Lindsay
Morey perjury. Truth is undaunsed by
these conspiracies aud prosecutions. 1t
afhrms now as it affirmed from the first
that the Morey letter was written by
James A. Garfield, for everything bears
out that conviction and nothing has been
yet done TO overthrow it.

STELEARTCN MINE
A Short Exploration Gads,

STELLARToN, n. s, Nov. 3-At IL 80
last night the Government Inspector of
Mines, Gllpin, and the local manager,
with gang Of men. made a short eXplor-
alton of the Ford pit. The atmosphere
was little cleared, but choke damp was
too thick to admit of their proceeding far.
Three bodies were found. two of which
we're brought out, the third being too tightly
jammed into the rubbish to be removed
without danger Of dislodging the mass.
Indications were that the flooding, which
was ordered on Friday, had cxtiuguished
the fire.
Thrilling narrations are given by the es-
capped miners One miner 10 trying 10

PROSTATE and helpless, and cgIling assis
tRnce succeeded in getting him into the
cage and so to the surface looking around
he discovered little boy apparently dead
but only unconscious. whom he also got to
the surface, and then discovered that be

A total flooding of the mine has been
resolved on, as the only eHeotual method
OF preventing farther explosions.

but fortunately no one was injured, though

LONDON, February 3.-The Mark Lane Ell
press says: Severe frost has again stopped al
agricultural work and canal navigation ant
seriously impeded the unloading OF vessels
whilst fogs have checked business. Thu
growing wheat has made no apparent pro
greSS, and In many fields IL has not appeared
above ground. II is feared that this renewal
OF frost will be severe trial on autumn sowr
grain. A great deal OF land Is yet unplough
ed. There Is little alteration In the quality
or condition OF English grain sent to market
which Is still In damp and detective condi
ton. Owing 70 tlis'fact and an increased
pressure TO sell on the part OF farmers there
was decline OF % per quarter last Monday
which has not since been recovered nearly
all tlieiniluence now dominant In the market
having remained on the side OF buyers. I'm.
ports have been on a tolerably liberal scale
for midwinter, shipments IRON India and
Southern Russia coming TO hand pretty freely.
This excess 81 supply over demand, coupled
with the rapid fall OF prices In America, caused
q decline OF Is per quarter.
Business during the week has been marked
by good deal Of indeclsion, despite the in
clination OF holders, in consequence Of the
further increase OF the Invisible supply In
America, TO accept lower prices Buyers
operated very cautiously. Though American
prices are now reduced 10 level with those
ruling in this country, further reduction
there Is required, as without some margin OF
profit importers can't be expected 10 operate.
Feeding stutIs arc quiet, the only noteworthy
change being an advance on maiZe OF a shil-
ling per quarter, owing to It's decided scarcity
on spot, The arrivals at ports OF call have
been small. Although only a moderate bust
ness has been DONE red winter wheats have
shown rather firmer tendency. Ghirkas i'm.
proved about shilling per quarter. Maize,
with few transactions, maintained tho late
rates Wheat for shipment was very quiet.
Buyers seem quite Indifferent TO the specula.
tive fluctuations cabled from America. Bar.
ley remains steady. Maize attracts little
attention.
The sales Of English wheat last week were
81 SO quarters at 45s 81 per quarter, against
o5,aiS quarters at 3ss 4d per quarter for the
corresponding week last year.
The imports into the United Kingdom for
the week ending January 2ith were 1886
cwts OF wheat and 2Ss. 3siowts OF flour.
