Ten Men Die by suffocation With Deadly
Fire Damp.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Aug. 12--The break
ing of the fan which supplied the West End
Coal Company's mines at Mocanaqua with
fresh air caused the sufocation of ten miners.
The boss knew of the break and so did the
men, but Notwithstanding this they went
into the mine. About seyenty-five men were
in the mine at the time. The men repairing
the fan were the first overcome 10y the gas
and before the rest of the men fairly rea-
lied their danger. More than twenty were
unconscious. Those who could then escape
did so. Superintendent Teacdale, with a
corps of men as relief, went down in the
mine as a relief to assist the men, but after
being in the mine half an hour Teasdale and
several Of his men became unconscious and
We're with difficulty rescued.
Others went down and in the face of i'm
mense difficulties, and in spite OF being con-
tinually overpOwered with gas brought out
oil but ten men. Three of those were dead,
and the others are beyond doubt dead.

CAUSE AND EFFECT.
From the st. Louis Republican. I

du.l
A New York republican paper has
succeeded in working itself into the
delusion that the election of a demo-
cratic president has brought over
whelming disasters on the country. It
says: "Seven months of the greatest
disaster and prostration of industry
ever known have followed the election.
Uncertainty continues. Doubt, dis
strust, shrinkage of business, accumu-
lation of idle money in greater amount
than ever, and growing distress and
discomfort of labor, are inevitable con-
sequences. The direct loss to capital
by reason of idleness, and to labor by
reduction of wages, has been enor-
nous. All this might have been pre-
vented by republican victory"
But this prOstration OF business be-
gan seventeen months ago, when the
republican party was in power and
without thought of going out. The
democratic administration has been i'm
power only three months and not law
has been changed; the republican tariff,
the republican monetary system and
the republican revenue system all con-
tinue as they were a year ago, and
what is more, nineteen-twentieths of
the public offices are still held by the
republicans. In short, the entire policy
of the government bearing on business
and industry remains as it was when a
republican administration was i'm DOW
er. The stagnatiOn in trade, the cut
ting down of wages and the labor
strikes were notable characteristics of
the summer of 1884, and Mr.. Blaine's
task in his electioneering speeches was
to apologize for them. If call this
might have been prevented by repub.
lican victory" why did not the repub-
lican party prevent the beginning of it
when in power? If the last seven
months of distress in industry is due
to the election of Cleveland last No
vember, to what is due the ten months
Of similar distress which preceded that
event?

HOSTAGES KILLED AND EATEN.

A sensation has been caused by
the arrival at Liverpool of private mail
advices from west Africa which report
horrible outrage by natives A small
war has been in progress for some time
between certain tribes on the Brass
river, in Guinea, and nine prisoners
who had been captured during one of
fights were held as hostages to secure
the payment of certain number of
pounds Of ivory by their friends. The
ransom not being forthcoming at the
stipulated time, the hostages were
killed, cooked, and eaten, their skulls
being sent to their tribe as warning
OF what the next prisoners may ex-
pect. The chief OF the cannibalistic
tribe has great reputation for courage
aud ferocity, but was believed to have
been converted by English Baptist
missionaries who have been Iaboring
in the valley of the Niger.

COUNCIL MEETING.
CITY HALL, June %, 1885

CITY HALL. June %, 1885.
Present His Honor the mayor, Coun-
cilmen Gavin, Howell, Homer, Rus
sell, Simmons, Taubman, Winsor, Will
liams; Attorney Hicklin; Register
Wallace; Marshal Owen.
The minutes of the regular meeting,
June 8, were read, on motion of Mr..
Homer, and they were approved.
Mr.. Russell called up an ordinance
relating to licenses, which had been
read third time at the meeting June
8. The ordinance was read for infor-
nation, and was put upon its passage.
Mr.. Winsor moved to postpone the
ordinance till next regular meeting.
Mr.. Winsor opposed the ordinance.
Mr.. Taubman opposed the ordinance.
Mr.. Russell made strong speech in
support of that feature in the ordinance
which requires prompt collection of
licenses, and declared the extension of
time granted by the collector on
licenses costs the city $4,000 per an
mum, because of the consequent neces-
sity to issue warrants.
Mr.. Winsor's motion was lost, six to
two.
The ordinance was then carried ;ayes,
Gavin, Howell, Russell, Simmons,
Williams; noes, Homer, Taubman,
Winsor.
Mr.. Winsor, as chairman of finance
committee read the following report,
giving Mr.. Taubman, of the commit
