Minneapolis journal: If the dairy
mems convention will open the eyes OF
the northern Minnesota and Dakota
farmers to the advantages of a more
diversified agriculture, it will prove a
lasting boon to them. The farmers OF
southern Minnesota have had their
eyes open for several years. and dairy
ing and s~tock-raising have made I'M
mense strides in that section. 1t Will
be a happy time for the northern en-
pire when the days of slavish devotion
to wheat raising are numbered.
All indications point to the probable
ity that Dakota has established it's case
against Governor Ordway and that he
will not return to the territory in an
official capacity. There is no assurance
that he will encounters the ~perelnetory
removal to which his acts cntitle him.
but it is generally conceded that he will
not be reappointed. Pending the expi-
ration of his term, in case he is not re-
moved prior to that date, he will be al
lowed leave of absence sufficient to coy
er the balance Of his period of service.
if he desires it. Mr.. OrdWay's fall is,
one which must ever be the final result
of irregularities in the performance OF
official duty. He came to Dakota at a
time when it was possible for n in
his position to place himself where
lasting enown would attach to his
name. But he has chosen to
himself with ignolniny and will retire
from the ~gubernatorial chair with the
maledictions of four hundred thousand
people upon him, This is the result
created by himself and only Ordway is
to blame for it.--ES.

about bosses, coming from men all over
the country who never did a days po-
litical work in their life. But now the

Mine Gazing.

WILKEsBARBE, Pa, Sept. 5.-The Enterprise
mine at Port Bowker, owned and operated by
Andrew Langdon, Of Buffalo, was this morning
the scene of the most extensive cave which has
occurred in this region for years. Nearly one
hundred acres Of ground settled from four to six
feet The Lehgh Valley railroad tracks sank
five feet and traffic was stopped for some hours
The air in the mine was driven with the violence
OF an explosion, and forced its way out OF the
shaft, almost totally wrecking the inside work
ings. The ground is covered with seams and
cracks for several hundred feet, and the houses
belonging to the miners are wrecked. The mine
is ruined andis now full Of gas. Water from the
river and the abandoned works near by is pour
ing through the assures in the ground Five
hundred persons are thrown out of work The
owner of the mine refused 50, zoo, 900 last week
for his interest.
WnKEsBARRE, Pa. Sept. "a second fall
took place at the Enterprise mine cave this even
ing, which now embraces fully $50 acres, ex-
tending from Susquehanna river up the hill to
farmhouse of the mine, distance of half mile
The fall OF rock this evening is thought to be
enormous. Before all mules could be rescued
six were killed. Even il the mine is not flooded
it will be at least year before it can be put In
working order again. The loss will reach fully
$500, 200.

NEW YORK.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. |

New YORK. Sept. Sit has been gala day for
the holders of stocks. For q few moments at
the opening the market wavered and was trife
unsettled by the announcement that New York
Central had declared only q Il quarterly divi-
dend, instead of the usual per cent. Good
buying OF all the leading properties began during
the first hour, however, and continued through
out the morning. Union Pacific took the lead,
being followed by the Changers and Wander
bits. Western Union telegraph improved also,
and 1t was reported that il had taken the Bank
ers and Merchants company under its wing. The
market became active the day advanced, with
considerable excitement. Pullman Palace stock
rose per cent, and the Lackawanna crowd are
not slow in bringing their favorite to the front.
In the late dealings stocks displayed much
strength. Chicago, Burlington & Quincy was
az points up from last evenings figures and
all the western lines were decidedly buoyant.
The excellent weather with which the corn re-
gion is being favored, cuts no small feature in
Wall street at present and has frightened many
into covering short sales.
The market held its own right up to the finish
and closed quite firm throughout.
The banking house OF Bell & Hatch, of New
York, in circular referring to the recent ad-
vance in stocks say the rise is out of all proper
ton to the actual or claimed improvement in
any quarter or commodity, except OIL Even the
wheat crop (the key note of the advance) is Of
set by full crops abroad and wheat at the lowest
price in hundred years in Eng
land 1t cannot be expected that present prices
will bring wheat out freely or encourage mer-
chandise movements westward. Depressing
traffic and financial statements from the rail
roads and the lock OF present business is best
evidenced by contest to reduce profits to the fail

OF production rated neces ACKNOWLEDGMENT stoppage
IN coal mining-the companies try to hold up
the anthracite combination against the serious
inroads OF bitumnous. What the dry goods trade
is may be inferred from the consent of the cot
ton spinners to limit production. With the
present temper of the foreigners inveighing
against the speculative American director, any
considerable rise without improvement otherwise
must be met by flood of stocks and securities
rather than gold. The benefits from good crops
are admitted, cotton is not so promising at the
moment, but they do not assure immediate,
or any considerable, improvement in the
various interests on which a permanent and
strong stock market depend. Buying on ma
nlpulation which assumes and discounts all theil
benefits is more hazardous than selling at the

1t is believed Admiral Courbet with the fleet
is near Hainan, out of the track of vessels, in
speeding his ships after the engagement at Ke-
lung and Foo-Chow. The attack on Kelung was
prompted by desire to obtain possession of the
coal mines, which would prove extremely useful
to the French IN case war was declared and
neutral ports closed. The Chinese frustrated
this scheme by flooding the mines, and destroy
ing the pumping machinery.
PARIS, Sept. 5.-The newspapers say the
French forces in China will not conine their
action to the occupation of the island of Formosa.
Admiral Courbet when reinforced, may invade
the gulf OF Petchili. Dispatches from Hanoi
say affairs at the delta OF the Red river are in
tranquil condition, and the French positions are
well defended.

ton has, with the knowledge Of Prime Minister
Ferry, intimated to the government at Washing
