FROM DEATHS JAWS.
OVER THREE HUNDRED GOLFERS
ESCAPE CREMATION
Rescued From Blazing Coal Pit
Twenty-Five Poor Fellows Die Hor-
rid Death--Spencer and Harri-
son-The Derby-Flashes.

DURHAM, England. June 4-The Phila-
delphia colliery caught fire at noon Wednes-
day. Three hundred and fifty miners
were in the pit at the time, and
it was feared that they would be
either suffocated or burned to death
before assistance could reach them. Great
excitement prevailed in the vicinity of the
mine. The wives and families of the un-
fortunate men gathered near the shafts
weeping and calling on God to save the yes
of loved ones below The scenes we're
deeply affecting.
A large force of men went to work
promptly, to endeavor to rescue the en-
tombel colliers Their efforts were success
full beyond all expectations. After severa
hours of hard work and intense anxiety all
but twenty-five of the imprisoned miner
were taken out alive There is no hope o.
finding the missing men. They are believed
to have been burned to death.
The colliery on fire is known as the Mar
garet pit" and is the property of the earl o
| Durham. The loss will be very heavy. Tn
mine is still burning

The Pestiferous Hessian Fly.

BALTIMORE, June 4-On the floor of the
corn and -four exchange, Wednesday, speci-
mems of wheat stalk, from Frederick county,
which had been attacked by Hsssian flies,
were exhibited The insect was found in
the lower soil beneath the root. This season
Maryland appears to produce the destroyer
in great numbers. There was no hope after
the severe winter of more than two-thirds
crop, and the ravages of the fly are expected
to very much shorten the wheat crop from
that estimate.
TOPEKA, Kan. June 4-There is now nc
doubt but that the Hessian fly is doing as
much damage, if not more, than did the
cold weather last winter, and the surplus
wheat of Kansas will dwindle down to small
proportions. Fields that four weeks age
nromised one-half to three-quarters of 6
crop are ruined, and will be turned over and
millet put in. The fly is in all the whea
sections.

LONDON, June 4-With reference to the
recent charge of literary piracy made
against Herbert Spencer by Mr.. Frederic
Harrison. Mr.. Harrison in The Times
of Wednesday, says that he is satisfied with
the explanation given of the affair by Mr..
Spencer, and that he is ready to regard
as IAN inadvertence" the share
taken in the transaction by Mr.. Spencer.
He tHarrison) knows too well the generosity
of Mr. Spencer to think that the question of
profit crossed his mind. He (Harrison) in
his course only wanted to convince him
(Spencer) that partisans led the latter into a
mistake, and he hopes that the affair will
not interfere with a continuation of their
friendship.
Mr. Herbert Spencer. in a letter to The
Times, notes the communication of Mr..
Frederic Harrison in The Times Mr..
Spencer, in his letter, writes: Il would
rather have it supposed that l Intentionally
