An explosion of fredamp at Youngs-
town, Pa, proved very fatal. Six of
the miners were taken out short time
after the disaster occurred. Two of
the men were dead and two of the
other four are so seriously injured that
there is no hope of their recovery.
This left from IA to Is men supposed
to be still imprisoned in the mine.
The exact number is not certainly
known. By morning twelve of them
had been brought out and delivered to
their friends and relatives at the mouth
of the pit. This makes fourteen dead
in all, and, together with the four in
jured, accounts for Is of the whole
number supposed to be in the mine.
Whether there are any more, remains
yet to be discovered, but it is believed
that all have been found. At this
writing complete and accurate list of
the dead can not be given. The scene
at the mouth of the pit, as the disfig.
ured bodies of the dead were brought
to the surface and given into the hands
of wives and relatives, were distressing
in the extreme.

driven from their moorings, and many
small wrecks were reported along the
coast. Four vessels were driven ashore
off Greencock. Incoming steamers re.
port that fearful weather was encoun-
tered at sea. The steamer from Lisbon
for Cardiff was wrecked at Penzance,
and the German cruiser Undine was
wrecked off the Danish coast. The

From indications every coal pit on
the Monougahela and Yougeogheny
rivers will be in operation before the
close of the week at two and a half
cents per bushel for mining in the first
three pools, and two cents in the fourth.
The back of the strike was broken
when the third and fourth pool of min
ers returned to work at the operators
figures. In the first and second pools
several of the largest operators have
been notified by the men that they are
willing to accept reduction, and pre-
partitions are being made for the re-

In the Commons Gladstone spoke in
strong disapprobation Of the Irish mem.
bers for their structures on Earl Spencer,
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. If the
charges they make could be proved,
Gladstone said that nothing less than
