Early this morning small hunting skiff

Alta drift in search Of the imprisoned miners.
Neither have been heard of and it is feared
both have suffocated by the heat and gas.
Shortly after a German tried to wade into
the shaft, but soon returned delirious. He
saw . light and boat, but no men. Two
other men attempted to wade in, but found
the heat and gas insupportahle and returned

are still heard on the air pipes, indicating
that the imprisoned miners are yet alive.

A DOlOrOus Convention.

Without exception, the gathering in Nor
ombega Hall, yesterday. was the most do
lorous and helpless political assemblage ever
witnessed in Bangor.
In spite Of the extraordinary efforts put
forth to make II imposing In numbers, the
attendance was 90 light from many sections
that constant excuses we're made for il, and
although the report Of credentiale vas made
to appear quite large, yet the attendance was
made up In great measure by the fasioniets
Of this city and vicinity. The lack of interest
was confessed when in 4 heated discussion
il was proclaimed that Aroostook had only
one delegate and Oxford and Aniro.coggin
hut = few each, and ii was obvious through
out that the ''people" had failed to respond
to the call.
The proceedings were perfanctory and gro
tesque In the extreme. The nomination OF
Plaisted was pat through in = disheartened
and nerveless way. on the motion of John
Todd, and the speeches of several of the fti-
sion oracles we're made up Of more than
usually miserable rant.
The platform IL perfect rag bag of odds
and ends, and when spread out, the contents
look like the sweepings Of Plsisteds politi-
cal garnet. To attempt to analyxe or dis
cuss such q collection of clap-trap and inco-
herency would be like reviewing one of Dan
rel traits speeches., winch II very much re-
sembles.
The one thing desired by the country del.
eeates was to nominate candidates for Con.
gress but the managers were too smart for
them and put the matter where they can
manipulate the Congressional ticket through
committees selected. This caused much bad
blood and large part Of the delegates have
gone home in the ugliest possible frame Of
mind.
The shadow of coming and crushing defeat
was over the whole business, and Plaisted
Hooked and acted like man Who vas reading
the fate of his demaeogism. OF the two con-
ventions held here this week that of yester-
day vas even more calculated to inspire ne.
publican confidence than the signincane suo-
cess Of Solou Chase in oheaiaine nomiuataon

SALT LAKE.
The GentiIes Made a Vigorous
Protest Against the Twin
Relic.
A POIygamOns Legislature De-
nOunced.

SALT LAKE, February 17.-At a
meeting Of the prominent Gentiles of
Utah the following preamble and res
olutions were adopted:
WHEREAS, The Legislature of Utah
now in session in this city, to-day
adopted a concurrent resolution pro-
testing against the passage by Con-
gress Of any bills in disfranchising
polygamists, but instead thereof pray
ing Congress to send committee to
investigate the condition of things in
Utah.
Resolved, That said action is merely
polygamous bluff, and trick to gain
time; and that if it wins the very men
who claim it as a divine interposition
in favor of polygamy will use it to
excite the masses of the Mormon peo-
pie against the just authority Of the
national government.
Resolved, That the fact that three
fourths of this Legislature are them.
selves practical polygamists, expresses
the condition of things in Utah with
out the intervention of an investigat-
ing committee; that their action on
this case betrays their fear that the dis
frsnchising Of polygamists will break
up polygamy, and therefore indicates
precisely what Congress ought to do;
that we most respectfully urge Con-
gress not to be deferred from perfect
ing the good work in which it is en-.
gagged by the protests Of men who are
acknowledged polygamists themselves
and who adopt this differential attitude
only because their ordinary attitude of
defiance will mot apparently serve them
in moral emergency; that there need
be no fear ofconvulsion for disturbance
if Congress now adopts effective meas
ures to settle Utah affairs, but that if
it does not the simplest duties of
craftsmanship will have been disre-
garded, as they have too long been
and the chance of peacefully settling
Utah affairs will by this much have
been placed in jeopardy.

PYROTECHNICS IN DAYLIGHT.
An Explosion and Fifteen or
More Lives Lost.

CHESTER, Pa, February 17.-About
eight o'clock this morning an explo-
sion occurred at the PyrotechnicW Works
OF Professor Jackson, of this city.
The building beinglbadly shattered took
fire and was consumed. At least fifteen
and probably more lives were lost and
many were dangerously wounded. The
building is the old homestead of Ad-
miral Porter.
A number of colored families lived
in the old Porter mansion. 1t seems
when it first took fire and while the
fremen were playing on the flames and
a large crowd had surrounded them,
the explosion occurred, scattering
destruction far and wide. The mum.
Der killed is between fifteen and
twenty and about twenty dangerously
and fifty more less seriously wounded.
The dead are being laid in the CITY
Hall and the wounded cared for in
the various drugstores, so that no
accurate list can be obtained.
