Crool>edness brought TO Light

BY telegraph 10 the Dispatch.
BALTIMORE, January ia few
days ago the safe belonging to the sus-
pended firm Of Painter, Tongue Il Co.
was repleyed out Of the hands of the
assignee, with the belief that in it could
be found evidence to implicate others
with William II. Rose, the alleged EN-.
bezzling book-keeper. The safe was
opened by J. Henry Keene, counsel for
Rose, and letters are said to have been
discovered from George W. Day, special
partner, instructing Rose how to pre-
coed before the failure, and to put off
the suspension as long as he could,
with view to getting hold of all the
money possible. Such a condition of
things makes the special partner liable
for all the debts Of the firm, as we'll as
exposes him to criminal prosecution.
The letters have been deposited in a
safety vault for use when needed.

The Nanticolse Entornbed Miners.

lby telegraph 20 the Dlspatch,l
WILKEsBARRE, PA, January Is
There is no change in the condition OF
affairs at the slope Of one of the Nanti-
coke mines where the miners are en-
tombed. A sensational report was
spread through the valley yesterday
that the rescuing party had discovered
bright light ahead Of them, but thisiS
denied on the best authority. The
work Of cleaning up the gangways con-
tinues slowly. Nothing has been dis
covered up to noon to-day, nor have
any signs Of the buried men been found.
a considerable stream Of water is now
running along the gangway where the
men are at work, and another
rush Of sand is feared at any
moment. From all appearances,
this morning it will be weeks before the
bodies Of the men are reached, if they
are ever recovered. 1t is possible,
however, that if the victims were
caught in the gangways and over
whelmed by the food their bodies may
be reached at any time. The Stanton
cOlliery operated by the Lehigh and
Wilkesbarre Coal Company is again
idle on account Of the inundation. The
recent cold weather has further in
creased the difficulty of mining by
causing the water dripping from the
buckets to freeze and fill up the shaft.
A large force Of men and boys have
been rendered idle in consequence of
the stoppage.

FARMER DOBS0NSMURDERER



lBy telegraph to the Dispatch.
NINCENNEs, IND, January Is
Holly Epps, the murderer of Farmer
Dobson, has expiated his terrible crime
at the hands of Judge Lynch. About
1880 O'Clock this morning a crowd Of
masked men numbering from twenty to
thirty. carrying Slejge-hammers and
various other implements, were seen
marching through the suburbs of the city
down Sixth street towards the Jail. Their
masks were nothing but bandana hand
kerchieis, but their faces were so care
fully covered that Identification was
impossible. They marched steadily
and silently to the courthouse yard.
Here they saw two policemen. The
leader of the gang approached these
officials and peremptorily ordered them
to go home. The policemen disappear
ed As if by magic. Stationing masked
sentinels at each corner Of the jail-yard,
the greater part Of the gang entered the
yard and walked stealthily up toward
the portico of the sheriff's residence.
Not a sound could be heard save the
shutting Of a score Of feet. The
lynchers stood back, while the leader
Knocked again and again, but received
no response. Finally, however, with
louder rspping and flercer call
ing. Sheriff Seddlemeyer was
aroused, and, coming to the door,
called out from within, who's
thereg" 1--WE want you to open the
door and let us in we are friends and
want to get in; we want to see you,"
answered the leader, in calm and steady
tones. 81 can't let you in tonight,
gentlemen decidedly answered the
sheriff. "But we must get TO-" said
the leader; I've propose to have the
black CARCASS Of the niger who MUIR
dered poor old Farmer Dobson up in
Green county, and if you won't let us
in, We will get 10 anyhow" "You
can't come in here" spoke the sheriff !

lay yourselves liable TO criminal prose-
cution." swell, here goes, them"
at last decided the leader. "Boys,
get ready!" And at these words

the door was smashed to splintsrs and
literally knocked off its hinges. Enter

serious Blockading ofRailroads IL the North

by Telegraph to the Dispaich.I
DENVER, January lS.-The situa-
ton with the blockaded railroads looks
somewhat serious. One train from the
East over the Santa lie railroad sue
ceeded in reaching Pueblo Saturday
midnight, the first since Thursday, and
three others arrived here yesterday.
The Kansas Pacific announces that a
train which has been blockaded nearly
two weeks will reach here to-day, but
their expectations may not be verified,
as more snow is falling here. Burling-
ton trains and those Of the Union Pa
cific ria Julesburg continue TO arrive.
The San Juan division of the Denver
and Rio Grande ran no trains Sunday.
Reports from that part Of the State are
to the effect that it has showed hard all
day, a fall Of fully twelve inches being
noted at Durango. There are some
fears of a serious blockade on that line,
but the company will make no effort
until the snow-storm ceases. Silver
ton reports that snow-storm began
there Friday night. but it did not as
sumo severe proportions until last night,
when it was reported raging with great
fury with high wind and drifting
badly, making the streets impossible to
travel.
