Loaded it too Soon.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., May 3l.-Mr.
James Quinn, n mechanical genius, liv-
ing on Walataluly Lake, has for some
time past been at work perfecting tor
pedo-eartridgc. This morning early he
undertook TO test the efficiency of the
invention, and in order TO prevent pos
sible harm he sank the apparatus, load
ed with dynamite, in the lake. The
cartride was connected with the shore
by string. Mr. Quinn had occasion
to return to his residence for something,
and while absent picnic party of col
ored people rowed down the lake in a
barge. The prov of the boat struck the
string, which exploded the cartridge
with terrible effect. Fortunately the
boat was not directly over the danger
GUS machinery, or not one of the party
would have escaped. The barge, thirty
feet in length, was thrown entirely out
of water, and came down bottom up
wards. A scene of terror ensued; the
party of eight men and seven women
were thrown in the water, and James
Hovan, Simon Silverton, and Mary
Leeds were badly wounded. The others
were more or less injured Fortunate
~ the boat was near shore and the water
but five feet deep, and the parties were
all gotten out. No deaths are yet re
ported.

Rejoicing Among the Iron Workers.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, June 1.-The sign
ing of the scale by the iron manufact-
urers yesterday occasioned great re-
joicing among all classes. A number
of mills are running to-day, but most OF
them have shut down until Monday, in
order to allow their employees to attend
the annual picnic of the Amalgamated
association, at Beaver, Pa, Saturday.
On monday every mill will be resumed.
Business men report that the effect OF
the settlement of the iron difficulty is
already noticeable in increased orders.
The manufacturers do not seem to be
very hopeful for the future. A. NJ. By
ers, one of the most prominent, said
this evening that he did not consider the
prospects for the summer trade even
fair; that the mills would only run
enough to fill orders, and that he did
not think many days each month would
be required to do this Joseph d. Weeks,
secretary of the Western Iron associ-
alton, is of the same opinion. The
workmen are not worried for the future.
They consider the manufacturers
gloomy forbodings as uncalled for, and
regard the outlook as quite rosy.

a number of reasons, some of which /
will mention: In the first place our
shooting season on the migratory game

Chat is, the length of time that such
rame can be found on our hunting
grounds.) We would not have more
| than about two and half months shoot
ing altogether if there was no law pro-

fduring the spring and fall flights. If
fyou will compare this, with the time
that they remain in the southern states,
where they begin to arrive in Septem-
Der and remain until March and April,
and will also look over the game laws
of the southern states, you will see that
the privileges are very one-sided. They
have game laws down there, but when
are they enforced? just when they
have no game there, when it is all in
the North, and they have just finished
a four to six months slaughtering of the
game, and then it is that those southern
slaughterers set up howl for the pro-
lection of this game. They say we must
further shorten our shooting seasons up
here. They would like to have us pass
laws prohibiting the shooting altogether
so that they could get all of the game

Shut up ShOp.

WASHINGTON, Special. - The final
case relative to captured and abandoned
property in the Southern States has at
last been cleared from the docket of the
court of claims. Almost all the prop
erty seized by the government was cot
ton. The whole amount of proceeds of
the captured and abandoned property
was S3l, 722, 466. of which Sc, 55l 600, or
more than 20 per cent. was absorbed in
the cost of collection and sale. The
sum of S2,550,675 was paid to claimants
by Secretaries Chase, Fessenden, and
McCulloch, and S64,5 was paid on
judgment against treasury agents. In
behalf of claimants, 1,77S cases were
filed, aggregating S77, 7S5, 962; 1862
cases were decided adversely, and 512
in favor of the claimants, and entered
judgments to the amount of SO, 1888, 423.
The balance of the fund, amounting 20
about $40, 512, 007, will remain the prop
erty of the United States, and the ac-
count, which has been kept open for
twenty years will now be closed finally.

Recorder.

The renovated Darlington Republi-
can, having practical proof of the pains
and pangs of being burned out, goes for
the citizens of that town on the subject
of protection against fire. We can add
nothing to the presentment of the case
and will only say, as did the man with
the prayer which he had hung at
the head of his bed, go Lord, them s
our sentiments
"And still there is no movement on
the part of our mayor, council or citi-
zens towards procuring a fire depart
ment. Seventy thousand dollars worth
of property ,shas been recently des-
troyed; three fine blocks are in ruins;
three of our largest firms were burned
out; business has been unsettled and
trade injured, and all because there
was no fire department in the city. No
one for an instant doubts that a fire
engine properly managed would have
saved both Drivers and Duncan s
buildings. Neither is any one justified
in supposing that another fire equally
and perhaps more destructive is not
liable to break out any moment. Yet in
the face of all this there is no effort
being made by anyone to secure fire
engine or any protection of any kind
flom the fire fiend.
For few days after the fire it looked
as though our citizens had at last be-
come awakened to sense of their dan
ger, and that fire company would be
organized or water works constructed;
but we fear that it will all end in talk.
Nearly a month has passed since the
contlagration, and no effort is being
made by anyone to provide for the flu.
ture safety of the city. Four times
within the last six months the torch OF
tue ''fire bug" has been applied to build
Efngs, the last of which was disastyously
successful.

CROOKS COLUMN.
What The Intrepid Indian Fighter is Doirg Over
the Border, in Mexico.

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY OPrER-
ATING AGAINsTTHE APACHEs, OPosURA,
SONORA, May 2S-A courier has arrived
at these headquarters bringing the
alarming intelligence that the Indians
have appeared in force near the
little town of Naccori, fourteen leagues
from here. The authorities there have
asked for achievements, as they are
afraid of being attacked at any moment.
There are only thirty soldiers, state
troops. under Lieut.. Jesus Maria Nor
ence, stationed there at present. When
the courier left the Indians were killing
cattle and desolating the country. The
official says that their trail was i'm
mense, and nearly all of them were on
foot. This news is positive and can be
relied upon.
The Indians have evidently had in
telligence of Gen. Crooks approach,
and deserted their ranches in the heart
of the mountains. They are seeking
safety and protection from the Ameri-
cans by a flight over the foothills. Ii
will be impossible for Crooks column
TO follow the Indians into the settle
ments, nor have we force sufficient
ut present TO drive them back again
into the mountains, and thus viii
Crook campaign prove = total failure.
The general, perhaps, is all that is
claimed tor him,-a brave. skillful, and
experienced officer in Indian warfare.
but he has undertaken entirely too
much for the small number of his col
umn, as these Indians have undisputed
sway over territory at least 800 miles
in length and $50 in width, and which
is entirely depopulated, with the ex-
ception of two or three small Mexican
towns
Old Juh is a strategist of no common
order, and he may prove more than an
equal for the general in this campaign.
AT least thus far he has escaped the
latter, and his movements into the foot
hills secures him against any and all
pursuits from Crooks column in the
present campaign. The Mexican troops
in Sonora are not acting in accord
with Gen Crook and know nothing as
TO his plans and operations in this cam
paign, as on his arrival in the state of
Sonora he entirely ignored the Mexican
commander here and did not notify
him of his arrival on Mexican soil
Col. Bandola has ordered reinforce
ments to Naccori, and taken every pre-
caution to confine the Indians to the
foothills, and not allow them to make
another invasion of the interior of the
state. Col. Solenez Torres is here, and
will assume command of the state
troops if an invasion is attempted.
Capt Bandola's scouts have penetrated
the Sierra Madres in every direction,
and if Crook had engaged the Indians,
as previously reported, the news would
surely have reached these head
quarters.
