The NanticOke Disaster.
BY telegraph TO the Dispatch,

10y biup h W NAiC bAoBhN'AA'l
WILKEsBARRE, Pa, December 81.
The situation at Nanticoke remains I'M
changed, as far as can be ascertaiued.
The black damp has been cleared from
the slope near where it is supposed the
men are imprisoned. The rescuing party
did no work in No. slope to-day, and
Superintendent Morgan will not ask
them to again face the danger there.
The only efforts now being made are in
clearing the main slope, which is sOlidly
packed with sand and rock. This
debris cannot be removed very quickly.
As soon as the mining engineers meet
ana devise some new plan for reaching
the imprisoned men the mine company
will at once begin to prosecute the
search, regardless Of expense.

Suow.silde Victims Found.


DENVER, COL, December 24.-A
special to the Ncrs from Slverton says ::
The bodies Of Burke IiOvey and j.
Scales, the two miners who were impri-
sODed in the Prodigal-Son mine Tues
day by a snow-slide, were found
at late hour last night at
the bottom of the shaft. Both
bodies were packed in tie snow as in
mould. Hoyey was found standing up
right on a piece OF timber six feet from
the bottom of the shaft, while Scales
was found standing at the bottom Of
the shaft. The latter had a candle in
his left hand and was shading his eyes
with his right and looking up as though
to see what was coming down the mine.
From appearances their death must
have been instantaneous. Scales was
from Orange, Tex, and Hoyey from
Woodstock. n. b.

A Fight with Oysfermen.


BALTIMORE, December PA spe-
cial from Easton, Md, says that fierce
battle took place in the Poplar-Island
narrows Tuesday night between a fleet
of eight dredgeboats and one of the
oyster-police steamers, probably Cap
tain Grifiith's boat, the Governor
Thomas. The steamer came into the
narrOws about III o'clock at night,
found the dredgers at work, and at
tempted to arrest them. They resisted
and opened fire on the steamer, which
was returned, at first with small arms.
A fierce fusilade was kept up for some
time. The dredgers made it hot for
the steamer until her captain opened on
them with his cannon. This silenced
their fire and put them to flight. They
started of down the bay, hurried by
the steamer firing cannon-Shot at them.
and passed out of sight Of the specta-
tors on shore, many Of whom had been
aroused from sleep by the noise of the
battle. Witnesses Of the fight from
the shore could not tell what damage
was done to either side; but the firing
was SO fast and furious and lasted so
long that they think there must have
been some killed or wounded.

Generals Crook and Bradley favor this

before the War Department would act

PITTSBURGH. Pa, December IL
There are no new developments in the
miners strike to-day. The situation
along the Monongahela valley this morn
ing is quiet, and no trouble is antici-
pated. This afternoon the miners of
the first and second pools met in
Wylie's Grove to consider the adyisa-
bility of returning to work. 1t was
the largest gathering since the inaugu-
ration of the strike. Fully l,500
strikers were present, and considerable
enthusiasm prevailed. After several
speeches, mostly in favor of continuing
the strike, a resolution to stand for
three cents was carried almost unani-
mously. A general convention will
probably be held at Monongahela City
next week.

Attempt 10 Blow Upa SIR, Will.


JERSEY CITY. y. j.. December q.
Union Hill was greatly agita,ed to-day
over an unsuccessful attempt by some
unknown persons to blow up the new
silk-mill on Union street owned by the
firm Of Sontag & Co. While on his
rounds last night Sergeant Stamford
noticed the front door of the mill open,
and, fearing that burglars had effected
an entrance, he at once pro-
ceeded to make a careful investi-
cation Of the premises. The Sergeant
had not advanced many steps into the
hallway before his feet were ermeshed
in a piece Of Irvine. As soon as he
tricated himself he discovered that the
string was connected with a tin can Of Pc
culiar make. The sergeant carried the
can to the police station, and upon an
investigation the can proved to contain
two pounds of giant powder. The
building was formerly used as n school
house, but was recently sold to the
present owners. Several thousand dol
lars worth Of silk were stored in the
building. Sontag 4 Co. recently
moved from New York.
