Two Reckless Miners.

READING. February 27.-Thomas lioh-
man and James Watson lost their lives late
this afternoon at an iron-ore mine under
the Schuylkill river, short distance below
this city. 4 blast had been made in the
mine and large quantity OF ore had been
dislodged. Hoffman and Watson went
into the mine almost immediately after the
blast. against the advice of their fellow
laborers, and soon afterward their crushed
and mangled bodies were borne from the
mine. II appears that after descending to
the bottom OF the shaft large mass OF
earth and ore, which had been looSened
overhead, tell upon them, burying and kill
ing them. Their bodies were first dis
covered by Robert Tyzzer, who gave the
alarm

Whnt "a "SfecI Bloom II

WASHINGTON, ID. c., February 27.-The
new Secretary OF the Treasury has devoted
his legal mind to an elaborate investigation
OF the question "What is steel bloomg''
The matter was brought before him in case
OF appeal by some New York importers OF
a large number OF chunks OF steel, on
which il is alleged that too high tariff was
imposed. A steel "blOom " is now legally
to be "a steel ingot which, being reheated.
is divided into parts and put under pres
sure OF the blows Of hammers, where their
structure Is somewhat charged, in that they
are compacked, heightened in texture and
strengthened, and the idea OF the material
in that changed state is fully conveyed
when it il spoken Of as bloom"

Our little editorial Of the 18th, in which
Judge STAPLES was mentioned as ii he had
been candidate for the Readiusternomina-
ton for the supreme Court Of Appeals (and
which was penncd whilst we were under
that impression) was, we had supposed,
more than offset by the statement OF our Off
cial reporter, in the same issue of the Dis
patch, that Judge STAPLES was not such a
candidate. Having learned, however, that
some of the Judges friends desire the cor
rection to be made in this column, we COM
ply with their wish mot reQuest with great
pleasure. Our only regret is that we did

STABLE BURNED.
Disastrous Fire ON the Premises OF
Henry @. Banning


A Disastrous Fire ON the Premises of
Henry @. Banning.
Shortly after O'Clock this afternoon the
frame stable ON the premises of Henry T.
Banning, president of the National Bank OF
Delaware, corner Oak and Broome streets,
was discovered on fire.
An alarm was Immediately sounded nom
box 26, Beach street and Maryland avenue,
and ali efforts made by those in the vicinity
to save what property they possibly could.
Two horses and two carriages, one very
valuable family vehicle, were taken from
the burning structure, which seemed to be
on fire all over like a flash.
Finding nothing could be done TO save
the barn, attention was turned TO the house,
about 200 feet distant the roof of which
was kept wet by buckets of water.
After much delay, wing to the great dis
tance to be travelled, the engines arrived
upon the scene, but found difficulty in
obtaining water. A plug stream was OBJ
tanned from the plug at Beech and
Clayton streets, about 2, 900 feet distant and
later on the Weccacoe engine succeeding in
getting good stream on the ruins from a
pond about 900 feet back of the house.
By the time the engine got in service,
however, the stable, COW sheds and some
fencing We're totally consumed, and all that
could be done was to prevent the sparks
from setting fire to the teuant house, located
almost alongside of the barn.
All the seasons hay and wheat from the
farm of 40 acres, some harness, agricultural
implements and different odds and ends
were consumed.
Mr.. Banning was down in the city when
the fire broke out, and with his two daughters
arrived home just as the building fell il
with a crash. He was unable to tell th'
amount of the loss, and was much excited
1t was insured in the Farmers Mutua
Fire Insurance Company in three policies
one of $1,000 on the barn, one O
S475 on the grain and hay, ant
one of 500 on the shedding. The loss viii
probably be about SO 800. The grass for
considerable distance around the building
was burned and scorched, two or three o
the large trees set on fire, but the tenemen
house escaped.
The cause of the fire is unknown, and
supposed to have been set on fire by som
boys who were seen in the vicinity, bu
whether accidentally or Intentionally is nc
known.

In it's columns, tue news of the world is

Of this country and Europe, are the most
reliable news gathcrers 10 be had, and the
history Of each days events will be taith-
fully recorded aud presented 10 the public
through the Enquirer, free from distortion
or prejudice.
The province Of newspaper Is to record
facts, TO separate truth from iasehood. How
well the E5iquirer has succeeded IN this
duty we feel a pardonable pride IN referring
TO its files and past record for evidence OF
its ability and thoroughness in presenting
all matters treated upon in their true light.
The people of this age require paper fully
abreast of the times, coeqaal in enterprise,
Bnd material advancement IN all mercantile
and political interests, such will the
Enquirer continue TO be. Candor and fair
ness will be accorded TO all questions and
parties, but the facts will never be perverted.
The immediate future has in store matters
of grave interest to all, and the general
welfare will largely depend upon the
| Influences of those who are fully conversant
with the facts occurring and to occur. The
policy of the government but partially
developed by the New Administration, was
fast winning the confidence of the people
when the hand OF the assassin placed contro
ofafiairs In charge OF faction whose leaders
have not at all times received favorable criti
cisms for their public acts. What the future
policy is to be, will be forcshadowed during
the first year of President Arthur's admins
tration, and presented TO the public withou
fear or favor, in the columns otthe Enquirer
