RELOCATING MINES.
when the Assessment Year Expires


The Commissioner Of the General
Land Office explains in letter to Wal
ter S. Long of Tenn Piute District, the
full text of which is published in the
Eureka Sentinel, when mines are SUBJ
feet to relocation as follows:
"By Act approved JANUARY 22d,
the period allowed for the first annual
expenditures required by section 1924,
United States Revised Statutes, is one
year from the first of January succeed
ing the date Of location, and this po-
vision is made applicable to all locations
made subsequent to May 10, 1872.
The location you name was made March
2, 1879, the first Of the succeeding JAN
uary was in 1880, and the law giving
one year from that date for the first i'm
provement under said Section 1924,
namely, to January l, 1881, and the
claim becomes subject to adverse loca-
ton upon the failure of expenditures
January 2, 1881"
Under this ruling claim located any
time since the lst of January last is not
subject to relocation until one year
from the first of January next, even
though no labor has been expended ON
the claim from the date of location
until that time. Prospectors have no
reason to complain of that amendment,
as it gives them plenty of time to make
the first annual expenditure OF 500 ON
each claim.

London. Sep. e.-An explosion oc-
Cured this morning at the Scaham col
liery, near Durham. Both shafts are
blocked, half a mile apart, and between
$50 and 800 men are in the pit. IL Is
known that some are alive.
Another dispatch says: At the time
Of the explosion $50 men were in the
pit, and from 9 O'Clock up to IL all
efforts 10 reach them were unsuccess-
full. Communication has, however,
been opened with n group Of eighteen
men. who are safe. The greatest ex-
citement prevails in the neighborhood,
and the wives and families of the i'm
prisoned and slaughtered miners sur
round the mouth Of the pit, with loud
cries and lamentations.
London, Sep. ga dispatch from
Seaham colliery this evening announces
that forty men who were working in the
two upper seams Of coal have been
found safe and well. Some of them
volunteered and are helping TO rescue
their comrades, who are seventy faith
oms lower. The bottom OF both shafts
is still blocked with debris.
Up to midnight total of sixty-six
men have been rescued, the majority in
an exhausted condition. The guiding
marks in the pit were blown TO pieces,
and the explorers consequently find
their work very difficult. They will
keep at 1t all night and hope to clear n
way into the workings by morning. So
far there is no sign Of FIRE, but 1t is
evident there will be large accumula-
tion of gas in the pit. One hundred
and fifty men are still in the pit.
Two corpses were brought to the
surface at midnight. one Of which was
badly burned.

London, Sep. s.-Sir John A. Nc
Donald and other Canadian government
commissioners have been successful In
the financial arrangement for the con-
struction Of the Canadian Pacific rail-
way, having concluded this afternoon.
The contract Is taken jointly by bank
ing firm in London, French financial
association and firm OF financiers in
New York. The contracting parties
will receive from the Canadian govern
ment n certain number of millions
sterling In cash, or its equivalent, TO be
provided for by issue Of Canadian gov
ernment bonds, not backed, however,
by imperial guarantee, and certain
number Of millions Of acres OF land
In consideration Of these grants the
contracting parties undertake to form
a company to be called the Canadian
Pacific railway company, which shall
construct and work the line in perpetu-
ity. The government furthermore
gives to the contracting parties IN ad-
dition to surveys already made, the
whole Of the line already built. The
cost Of these items is put at between
e5, ,0O0, 900 and CO, 900, 900 sterling.

+ New York, Sep. s.-The Times
thinks Ninmo's estimates of / 600, 900
tons as the limit Of business for the
Panama canal very liberal one, and
that In the no distant future the amount
would be less rather than greater than
this sum. That this aggregate tonnage
would be sufficient to pay those who
ventured to build the canal does not
seem at all probable. Permitting the
possibility Of fixing the tariff at the ex-
treme rate Of So per ton, the canal
company's income would be only a.
10000, or less than 8 per cent on the
Investment, or $1,000, 900. and this
without deducting anything for running
or incidental expenses.

General Phayre arrived at Candahar on

Upton, Quebec, Sep. s.-one Of the
most terrible occurrences in the history
Of this section Of the country was a
fire which swept through portion OF
this village Monday. carrying ruin and
death in its track, both TO man and
beast. Bush fires have been numerous
for some time and little attention was
given them. A high wind on Monday
famed the flames until the Inhabitants,
about O'Clock, saw with dismay n wall
Of flames come toward them with a
steady sweep as fast Ms man could run
and swallowing up everything in its
course.
by o'clock the first farm house had
been reached. The fire ran along the
rail fences, burning the grain, and the
wind sent sparks In all direction. So
quickly was one farm house after an
other enveloped that the men, women
and children had barely time 10 escape
out OF its line. As night drew on the
flames increased in volume, while the
wind rose, and for a space OF about
twelve miles in length and In width
from three 10 four miles, the eye rested
upon nothing but roaring flames. Fam
lilies came flying into the village proper,
shivering In scanty dress. Children
shrieked In their terror. Cattle ran
helter skelter, and many were burned
TO death. Forest after forest was swept
away and the smoke and flames were in
one compact volume some six miles
long, and measureless far as the eye
could see as to width.
From the st. Helena, st. German,
st. Guillauine and other roads came
fugitives, in some instances compelled
TO abandon their vehicles and take TO
the horses backs. Men were obliged
TO throw away their coats In order to
saye their lives. House after house, and
barns filled with the best crops known
for many years, were licked up, and
wien the fugitives were all counted IL
was found there were eleven persons
missing, not one Of whom 1t was
thought would escape but towards
morning most Of them turned up.
