RrcHMoND, Va. October 22.-Consid-
cradle excitement was created this fore
noon by report that a terrible eXplO-
sion had occurred In Raccoon, at the
Glover Hill mines In Chesterfield coun-
ty, about % miles from Richmond, by
which 100 men had been entombed. An
investigation, however, developed the
fact that only two men had been caught
by the explosion and were probably
dead. Their names are lIobson Cheat
ham and AL Leigers. The former was a
gas man, whose duty It was to examine
the chambers of the slope to see II they
we're properly ventilated before the men
went 10 work. Lelgers was a cOntrao-
tor, and worked force of hands In the
mine. They went down the slope to-
getber, made an examination, and re-
ported everything oil right. How the
explosion occurred cannot be positively
stated. The two men had not come out.
although about 60 men had gone to
work. The explosion occurred In the
lower end Of the slope and caught Cheat
ham and Leigers. but all the men who
were at work nearer the mouth OF tie
slope, escaped before the fire damp over
took them. The resculng party went
into the mine, but could not At first get
within 500 feet Of the unfortunate men
owing to the fire damp. This evening
however they succeeded in recovering
the body of Cheatham.

tiOn of Southern men, among whom
were Senators Ransom, Harris and Glib
son, and Congressman King, OF LOUISE
ana, were heard to-day by Secretary
Manning and Assistant Secretary Fair
child In behalf Of the rice planters. They
asked to have rescinded, or amended, an
order issued during Secretary Folger's
administration, under which they say
food rice is admitted in large quantities
at the rate of 20 per cent. advnlorem in
stead of paying the specific rate charged
by law. The order referred to relates { o
granulated rice, an article imported
largely for the brewers. The claim Is
made by planters that the importations
under this order are doing great injus-
tice to the market for rice.
