NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES.
A Meeting Of Persons Interested
Held in Boston YESTERDAY.

BOSTON, Dec. 14.-Within the past week there
has been considerable agitation going on among
those interested in the New England fisheries
over the prospect of the present Congress treating
with Great Britain on the question of fisheries.
Meetings have been held in Gloucester Portland,
Me- and other places where fishing is an i'm
portant industry, and committees had been ap-
pointed to attend meeting of the executive
officers of the American Fishery Union in Boston
today. That meeting was held at the Parker
House this afternoon. Fifteen or sixteen gentle
men were present, among whom were George
Steele Sylvanus Smith, w. II. Jordan, Capt Fitz
j. Babson ex-collector. all of Gloucester; Hon.
Charles Levi Woodbury., Of Boston; James Clifford
of PrOvincetOWn; Orren B. Whitten, George IRE
fethen and +. H. Smith of Portland. The meeting
was strictly private, no reporters being admitted.
Previous to the meeting Mr.. Steele, who is
president of the American Union, said in con-
Versation: ''We don't want any legislation what
ever on this matter. We want 1t left just as it is
But if Congress must appoint commission, we
want a commission that will give exclusive atten
ton to the fishery question"
During the session a resolution was adopted
condemning the "treatment which the fishing in.
dustry has recently received at the hands Of
Secretary Bayard in the adoption Of measures al
the instance of the British minister at Washing
ton looking to the eventual free importation Of
British fish from the Dominion of Canada"

PATRONS OF HUsBANDRY.
The Annual Meeting of the State
Grange Opens in Augusta To-Day.

The annual session of the Maine State Grange,
Patrons of Husbandry, will open three days ses-
sion in Augusta to-day. This afternoon Worthy
Master Frederick Robe will deliver his annual
address and tomorrow evening Capital Grange
will furnish an entertainment. 1t is believed this
will be the most important as well as most fully
attended meeting of the State Grange ever held.
Indeed the number of delegates is larger, as
there are now some 216 oranges in the State
each one of which is entitled to two representa-
tives, viz: the Master and his wife, thus making
about 425 delegates who will be present If every
grange is represented The fact that the election,
of officers which occurs biennially, takes place at
this session. adds TO Its importance. The last
time the State organization met in Augusta was
four years ago when Mr.. Robie was first elected
master, and since then 1t has visited Lewiston,
Bangor and Houlton.
Secretary Hills report will show that during the
past year there has been an increase in the mem
bershfp OF the grange of 1000, there now being
$4,000 members of the order in the State. There
has also been an increase in the number OF
Knox county.
The constitution of the order requires that all
changes made by the National Grange shall be
ratified by the State Oranges. Accordingly
several matters passed upon at the recent session
of the National Grange in Boston Will come up
here for ratification One of the most important
changes will be that making the sessions of the
National organization biennial. There are also
some new rules relative to the fees and dues. The
House, Worthy Master R0bie having secured
rooms there.

The Destruction by Fire of an Historic
Old Mansion.

At the burning Of the Norton mansion In Farm
ington one of the owners Mr.. Richard r. Norton,
had narrow and almost miraculous escape from
death. In fighting the flames IN the second story
of the house he became dazed and bewildered by
the dense smoke and could not find way Of exit
from the room. Rescuing parties searched the
whole upper part of the housefor him, and only
discovered him by stumbling over his prostrate
body. Drs. Reynolds Dyer and Richards were
summoned, and Mr.. Norton has since been very
i'll as result of this almost sufocati0n, although
he is now mnch better. The burned mansion was
probably at the time of its destruction the oldest
standing frame dwelling in the town. 1t was
erected in 1892 by Ebenezer Norton and has re-
mained in the possession of the family ever SINCE
tion that in it was struck off the first paper ever
printed in this section of the State. From the
house have gone forth large families Of children,
descendants of whom may be found in almost
every State in the Union.

FRIcATFUL EXPLOSION.
Several Men Badly Injured in Penn
syIvania Mine.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Dec. IA frightful ex-
posion of gas took place this morning in the Mill
Creek mine, operated by the Delaware & Hudson
Coal Company at the plains, a few miles from this
city At the time of the accident, there were
about 100 miners, laborers and boys in the slope.
The news spread quickly, and the entire popula-
tion soon seemed to have gathered about the col
liery. The explosion occurred in what is known
as No 12 lift, which is located at the extreme end
of the opening of the slope, being 1000 feet from
the mouth and therefore its ventilation was def
cient. Gas had ignited in the breast, where min
er named Coffin was at work. An exploring party
of about twenty miners entered the slope as soon
as the news of the disaster reached the surface.
1t was quickly discovered that many of the men
were burned, and the explorers at once began re
moving them. One miner was fatally, and six seri-
ously injured, and many others were slightly in
jured by flying pieces of coal and wood and by be-
ing violently thrswn against the pillars of'coal.
The explosion could not have been avoided.

THE DOMINION.
The Redskins vowing Vengeance.

MONTREAL, Dec. 14-Father Lacombe, the
Roman Catholic missionary among the Blackfeet
Indians, who so narrowly escaped assassination
along with Fathers Fafard and Marchaud, arrived
here from the Northwest yesterday. The object
of his visit is to impress upon the government the
necessity of Immediately despatching strong
military force to the Blood Indians reservation.
These Indians, he says, when he left were very
turbulent and might take the war path any mo-
ment Should they rise they would undoubtedly
have the hearty support OF powerful tribes in the
United States. With such an alliance made and
an Indian war begun, the Blackfeet and other
tribes to the North would certainly take their
part, and an Indian war in comparison with
which the recent troubles would be but as drop
in a bucket would have to be waged before the
Indians could be subdued. All the tribes are
vOwing vengeance for the hanging of the Indian
murderers of the Riel rebellion, and say they are
prepared to fight the white men to the bitter end.
Being asked If the half breeds would join in such
a war, Father Lacombe said he believed Gabriel
Dumont was at this moment plotting another
rebellion
Samuel s. Capen, yesterday morning, instituted
a suit AGAINST the publishers of the Boston Even
ing Record for libel contained in its issue of Satur
day, the 18th inst The libellOus statement re-
lates to the same old matters of the firm of
Gardner, Capen & Co. which were ventilated in
the newspapers years ago.

JAY COULD AND HIS SON.
Wall Street Men Anxious to Know
What They Will Do in the Future.

NEW YORK, Dec. 14--Wall street brokers are
by no means satisfied with the meagre statement
that Jay Gould is to retire from active business
life on December 81. They do not believe that
he means what he says, but they can get nothing
positive out of him as to his plans for the future
The death of Vanderbilt, it is argued, has changed
his plans and he will continue to be as potent in
speculation next year as ever before. Considera-
bic interest is also manifested in the future OF his
engage as partner with dozen different firms,
but both the Goulds deny this, and Wash Connor,
who for years has been Goulds partner, says he
will reorganiZe his firm on January 1, but it is un-
derstood that no provision has been made for
Young Gould. This is surprise to ''the street, p
Tor he is believed to be a smart business man

MONTERREY, Mex, Dec 14.-Business is recoy-
