HAVANA, July l3.-An English steamer
arrived with intelligence that the steam.

Mail Steamship Company, and which left
New York on the 7th for this port, has
been burned off the coast Of Florida. The
passengers were all saved and brought
here by the above mentioned English
steamer.
The following particulars were received
at five o'clock this morning: Twelve pas
sengers Of the Niagara were
reused because of fire which
had been discovered in the second hold
forward. The steamer was then between
Forney rocks and Cary's Fort, reef of the
southern coast OF Florida. Strenuous ef.
forts were made to extinguish the fire, but
they proved OF no avail. The smoke con-
tinued to pour FROM the ven tilators and at
$50 a brigantire hove in sight The

Niagara, soon discovered the steamer
toward the south. He then

IA NJ. the Niagaras passengers and mails
were put aboard the Commander. Both
steamers remained together, and the Nj.
agara went ahead until about 1 P. NJ when
she stopped to send the purser aud the
steward safe aboard the Commander. Capt.
Baker then turned the Niagara toward the
Florida coast, and ran her ashore in six
teen feet of water near the Alligator
reef light house off the Indian key.
The purser was instructed TO charter at
Havana number of steam tugs with
pumps to assist in raising the steamer, and
when raised she will proceed to Havana.

PIrrsBURGH, July 13.-The window-glass

50 far is matter about which the officials,

though not participants in the conclave,
are qualified to make very close guess, say
that the consideration Of next years rates
has occupied a great part of this years ses-
sion, although the
Alterations I'm the Bylaws
has been the principal matter. "The ques-
ton of wages cannot be settled by the con-
vention," said a gentleman who knew
whereof he spoke. However the discus
sion Of next years wages must first start In
convention. OF course there is conference
committee to whom the matter is left, but
they get their instructions from the con-

known only to the delegates as yet, and by
them it will be communicated to the differ

turned out is kept by the association, and
the shipments OF every factory are noted.
This year the men are opposed to any re-
duction in wages, but it is hardly probable
that there will be any difficulty. The or
ganizations of both the manufacturers and
workmen in the window glass business are
so strong that it is mighty hard to get up

measures"
