CAUGHT IN A MINE.
A Cave-In of Several Acres In q
Pennsylvania Colliery,


SCRANTON, PA, Sept. 13.-The Marvinc
shaft Colliery of the Delaware and Hudson
Canal Company was the scene of an extern
sive cave-in this morning, by which, 1t is
feared, number Of men have lost their
lives, how many it is impossible to say,
the suppositions varying from six to nine.
There seems to he but little question Of the
death of one Of them, an elderly man
named John Shafer. Following are the
names of the injured Henry. Shaefer,
Thomas Healy, laborer; Joseph Ready,
driver; George Mason, miner; Peter
Kelly, timber boss, was struck on the back
of the head and on tho shoulder by falling
rock. Kelly passed Joe Shnfer, an elderly
man, at the foot of the slope. He thinks
the rock which struck him struck Shafer
also. There are number of other work
men in the shaft, whose fate is not known.
Tho main road and the straight road, as
they are called, are both blocked, and en-
trance through them is as yet inn
possible. There Is possibility
OF effecting an entrance to. tho
workings in the rear of the fall by
means OF a heading, which runs clear
around the twenty-five feet of the cham
ber, and mon are at work and will CON
tinue without cessation until an entrance
is effected. BY working three shafts, and
spelling the men every three hours, 1t is
hoped to drill hole through this twenty
five feet of coal by some time tomorrow
when, by getting in the rear of the fall, u
the missing men are alive, they will III
most certainly be found. The chances OF o
rescue are very slim.

Mysterious Poisoning.

DECATUR, ILL.,, Sept 10.-About fifty peo-
pie were mysteriously poisoned at a coun-
try wedding about five miles west of here
Wednesday night, and yesterday all the
available physicians were hard at work at
tending the afflicted persons. who are
retching and vomiting violently Thomas
w. Jacobs and Miss Alice Glasgow were
married at the house of the BRIDES
father. Supper was served and included
chicken salad and boiled chicken,
and all ate heartily. An hour later the
bride and groom were taken sick, manifest
ing symptoms of having been poisoned.
Part Of the company had left, but those re-
naming were taken sick, doubling up and
vomiting. 1t has been learned that the
chickens for the salad we're cooked and
salted in big copper kettle. 1t is supposed
the salt caused the metal to corrode and
mix with the chicken. The people are all
quite sick yet, but the doctors do not APP
prehend the fatal termination of any of tile
cases,

ception.

NEW ORLEANS La, Sept. 10.-Dr George

here to-day charged with embezzlement by
a number OF persons whom he defrauded
out of money to search for hidden treas
ure. Adams claims to have tbeen prnc-
ticing physician In Massachusetts, when
the war broke out. He shouldered mus
ket and Joined Company A, Seventeenth
Massachusetts, Volunteers. A portion Of
the command came with Butler to New
Orleans. In foraging expedition three
soldiers Of the regiment entered dwell

miles above New Orleans, on the right
bank of the river, and carried off some
$50, 600 in gold and silver-Sl, 500 Of 1t in
silver half dollars, 81, GOO in dollars, and the
rema ainder In gold. Being afraid to enter
the city with so much money, on reaching
pecan grove about half a mile from the
locks at the canal opposite Greenville, they
selected a tree, prominent for its size and
some peculiarities about its appearance
which made it conspicuous. AT tho foot
then took bearings, one Of the party being
civil engineer. Each of the three men
were furnished with a copy of this, and the
marauders returned to New. Orleans, in
tending to return after the war and
psnons the were Killed hs two Adams SH

Adams was taken to Northern hospital,
and left it paralyzed and helpless. When
he recovered the use of his limbs. only
month ago, he returned to New Orleans
and at once began to search for his treas
ure. He found to his dismay that all the
old pecan trees had been cut down and
only the young ones left, and was conse-
quently unable to recoznize the tree under
which the treasure was buried. He devot-
ed himself, however. for three weeks in
delving for it. A few days ago he took
several other parties into partnership with
him, who advanced better outfit for sur
veying the land and digging for the money;
but as he has unearthed no treasure his
partners had him arrested to-day.

A Child's Miraculous Esoape.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 12.-Mr. and Mrs Ed.
Schultz, with their three-year-old son, Of
Mndisonville, came in Saturday evening to
see the Exposition, and passed the night at
the residence of Geo. Greenwald, on West
Fourth street. The family occupy the
front rooms on the third floor. This morn
ing the parents went down to breakfast
leaving the boy asleep. The little
one awoke and climbed out of
the front window to the balcony.
Then getting upon the iron railing
the child lost his balance and fell to the
stone pavement in front of the parlor win
dows, a distance OF over thirty feet A
gentleman passing at the time saw the ac-
cident and alarmed the house. The child
was taken in and the doctors summoned.
They could find no injuries beyond few
scratches on the lower limbs. The escape
was most miraculous as the lower balcony
is only about three feet wide, and the child
could not have missed the iron railing more
than an inch.

LONDON, Sept. 0-Mr. Murray, speaking
before the British Association, advocated
large scheme for Antartic exploration.
He said that II the Australian Governments
could be induced to vote $4,000 each and
Parliament $4,000 towards tho outfit OF an
Antartic expedition the success OF the un-
dertaking would be assured. The colonies
might follow the example of Australia,
and this would be the first great step in
imperial federation. Mr.. Murray then
went on to give an account of tho Antartic
circle, which he said might be said to be
covered with white shroud Of snow and
ice, which had hitherto prevented any de-
tailed examination of either the solid land
or the ocean wnters. Five expeditions,
said Mr.. Marray, had been dispatched
from England and other countries to ex-
plore the Antartic Continent, but only that
OF Sir James Ross had been especially
fitted for the work, and only he and Wilkes
had got within the Antartic circle, and
Ross has expressed the opinion that had 1t
been possible to find place of security
upon the coast for the wintering, the in
terror might have been explored with sleds
and the Southern Pole reached. The Ant
artic land had great interest to us from
the scientific questions connected with the
ice cap and iceberg. The ice cap in the
Southern Hemisphere might be several
miles In thickness near the pole, and 1t was
in connection with this that some of the
most interesting scientific investigations
were required to be made.
