TWO MEN KILLED BY BEING CAvED-IN UPON
BY EIGHT FEET OF EARTH.
An Elmira IN. " telegram says: a dis
astrous and seemingly unavoidable sewer
accident caused much excitement and gave
rise 10 many sensational rumors in this city
this afternoon. Contractors Murray &
Diven. with a gang of thirty or forty men,
were digging a deep pipe-sewer IN Rail
road avenue a few rods north OF flfth
street. The stays gave way under press
ure last night and the earth cayed IN.
While workmen were removing the re-
fuse earth at $40 o'clock this afternoon
another and more extensive slide from
either side buried five OF them near the
he'd OF the sewer fifteen feet below the sur
face Of the street. Their names are Denis
Burns. Thomas Tubberty, John White,
Andrew Jackson, and Joseph Beebs. The
last three discovered the moving mass in
time to exert themselves toward escape,
and were only partly buried and pain.
fnlIy soueezed and bruised. But Burns
and Tubberty could hardly have realized
their danger; for they were buried, races
M. beneath eight feet OF sand, clay,
and stones. A large gang OF WORK
men were vigorously employed Ioi
nearly an hour before these TWO
crushed and cold bodies could pe un'
earthed Each was man OF large family,
and they were about forty-hv.e and nity
years old respectively. Their families
| learned OF the disaster before the bodies
were uncovered, and the scene at the sewer
was heartrending when the sons. daugli,
ters, and wives arrived and joined In WHO
expressions OF grief. One or two OF then
tainted away outright. A coroners Jury
was empaneled, and an inquest Is 10 bt
held tomorrow. The direct cause OF tbe
slide was probably jar caused by lonns
freight train passing few wards IRON th'
sewer. This is the third accident ~ th'
same sewer, but fortunately neither OF tn'
previous misheps proved fatal.

TIE TERRIBLR EFFECT OF THE BURSTING OF
| FLY-wHEEL on NEW ENGINE.
A Shenandoah, Pa, special OF the Phila-
delphla Times, dated the 7th, says: VIII
/ liam Wagner, assistant foreman OF the
Reading Coal and Iron Company's repair
shops, at Pottsviile, was killed this after
noon at kniokerbocker colliery, near here.
Mr.. Wagner had charge Of gang OF men
engaged in putting up large engine at
that colliery, and. the work being COM
! pleted. trial was made this afternoon.
Everything appeared to work satisiac-
| .orily. Foreman Wagner was making n
general examination OF the machinery
when terrific report was heard. SIX
or eight carpenters who were work.
ing in the building rushed into the engine
room to see what had happened. Not q
vestige OF the heavy fly-wheel, which had
burst, was 10 be seen. On the floor lay
Mr.. Wagner, bleedingend dying. One OF
his legs was cnt off and his head and face
terribly mutiated. lie was immediately
picked up and carried out Of the room, but
died In the arms OF his companions. A
carpenter named Schultz was struck by a
piece OF the wheel, but not seriously hurt.
Large pieces OF the fly-wheel were hurled
through the building, which was con-
sderably damaged. The foundation Of
the engine was destroyed. The ac-
cident caused great confusion. Many Of
the employees believed an explosion had oc-
CURED in the mine. Mr.. Wagner was but
twenty-six years Of age and only recently
married. He was an expert machinist.
His father. Benjamin Wagner, is one Of the
oldest engineers on the Reading road. Sam
uel Wagner, a brother OF deceased, is assist
ant master mechanic at Palo Alto. What
caused the accident is unknown. Different
theories are advanced. Some attribute it
TO flaw in the iron. An investigation
will be made. Wagner's remains were
placed in an ambulance wagon and taken
TO his home at Port Carbon. He leaves a
wife and one child.

lhinese Enumeration.

Senator Miller, of California, has written
to the Secretary Of the Treasury complain
ing that numbers OF Chinese are being i'm
ported into this country under "the stu
dents, travellers, and merchants" clause Of
the Chinese bill. He desires that an inves-
tigation shall be made Of the subject, on
the ground that fraud Is being practiced to
facilitate the importation of Chinese labor
ers. The Treasury Department, however,
holds to the opinion that 1t cannot act in
the matter, as the certificate is prin'a-fdcie
evidence that the person presenting it Is
protected by the law passed by Congress
