AN ALARMING STATE OF AFFAIRS
Natural Gas from Five Wells Rushing
into the Open Air
One Of the Wells Afire with Danger of
Spreading.

PITTsBURG, Pa, March 2O.-rDi spatches
from Murraysville tonight report serious
condition of affairs There are five wells
pouring all their gas into the mains of the
CHARTERS company which are broken. The
result is that the gas goes into the open air
and spreads through the town. The well
which Is on fire is big one, and the flame is
shooting up $50 feet. As the wind is very
strong there is great danger that the other
wells will take fire. There is no prospect
just now of the CHARTERS company being
able to shut off the gas, as the pipes are
burned off close to the ground If the other
wells are gnited and the fire spreads to the
gas which is floating in the town there will
be succession of explosions and fires. The
Philadelphia Natural Gas Company have a
great deal of property in the vicinity, and
have been doing all they can to prevent the
spread of the fire. A special train has been
sent out from Pittsburg by the Philadelphia
company with fifty men on board to work on
the broken main. Cots and other necessities
for the wounded of yesterdays explosion
have also been sent to Murraysville by the
same company. The people are moving their
goods from their houses in Murraysville and
along the line near the leak. The exciteD Mt
about the place can readily be imagin in
view of the dangerous condition OF fIairS
and the prospects of further accidents. Two
of the Taylor family, who were burned yes
terday, are dead, and three other persons are
eXpected to die.

THE CANADIAN FISHERIES.
American Vessels Within the Three
Mile Limit to be Seized.

OTTAWA, Ont, March 20.-The govern
ment is being pressed by those interested in
the fisheries to provide some heavy penalty
for the Canadians who in the future may be
caught selling bait to American fishermen.
Sir John Macdonald objects on the ground
that at certain points in the maritime prov
inces Fishermen have for years depended en-
tirely on the sale of bait to Americans for
their livlihood. The instructions which in a
few days will be placed in the hands of the
government cruisers as to how they are to
proceed with the protection of the fisheries,
provide that American fishermen and fishing
vessels are not to be allowed ON the inshOre
fishing grounds of the Dominion to procure
bait. Commanders are instructed not to al
low themselves into admitting American
vessels into Dominion harborS under the
pretext of making repairs, when their real
object is to transfer their cargoes into other
vessels. Commanders are cautioned against
proceeding out of the three mile limit, and to
make sure that this limit has not been eX-
ceeded when seizure is made, and that
when a doubt exists there should be no at
tempt at seizure Every American vessel
found within the three mile limit is to be ac-
coSted, except along the coast of Labrador
and around the Magdalene, islands. and. if
either fishing or preparing to fish, or having
obviously fished within the exclusive limits,
seizure is at once to be made and the vessel
taken to the nearest port Imperative or
ders are, however, given not to seize any
vessel unless it is evident and can be clearly
proved that the offense of fishing was actual
ly committed.

Feb. II, 1885, he deposited another $1,000 bill.
ON March 9, IS and 90 and April II he depos-
tied more $1,000 bills. He remarked to the
cashier that he wondered where Hume got
ali the $1,000 bills. This account was drawn
out between Dec. 20, 1884, and July, 1886
Harry j. Hume was recalled. He said that
he could not hear the previous witnesses ev-
idence but il the cashier testified that he
had deposited $1,000 bills he did not know
that he had any explanation to make, He is
Pesrson's brother-in-law, and previously de-
MED depositing any $1,000 in the bank.
Inspector Byrnes refused to tell of his re:
cent Interview with Jaehne, by advice Of
District Attorney MARITIME, on the ground
that it would be injurious to pubic justice
He was excused.

intercollegiate regatta of next July. Stroke.
George Norris, 'S6; bow, L. B. Varney, 'S7;
Jackson of 80 will row No. or 3, and
Woodman, 'SS, or Lyman, SO, will complete

Both the bow and stroke oar have been

in contests of less account, while the three

themselves deserving of confidence
The rumors which have been so widely

BowdOin would not Send a crew this wear
are OF course all nonsense, as no action has

chiefly to select the men. Bowdoin intends
