Robertsdale,s Mines Still Flooded.

HUNTINGDON, Pa, Dec. 3.-The bitumin- ous coal mines at Robertsdale, which were flooded by the sudden flow of back water, covering forty acres, will not again be in condition for working for some time, owing to the undermining of the tramways and other damage incident to the washout The course of the water was changed from the mines by digging an artificial bed and run ming the current in an opposite direction but in spite of this, though effecting the re- lease of the coliers, a steady flow of water is still running through the mines Two Worthington pumps, weighing 5000 and z, SOU pounds have been in constant service night and day, but the water still comes pouring in. The forced idleness of the miners will entail very serious loss to them at this season. The company's loss to property can not be aseertained.

TALKING FOR CHARITY,

Gen. Harrison Presides at the Meeting of
 the Indianapolis Benefit Society.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 3.-The President-elect and Mrs. Harrison attended divine services yesterday at their own church, the First Presbyterian, and listened to sermon by
 tev. M. l.. Haines.
 5 night Gen. Harrison presided at the
 hird anniversary of the Indianapolis
 ..evolent society. Promptly at 7:3O Gen. harrison entered from the wings, and took his seat back of the small table, but in the row of chairs occupied by the ministers, sit ting between the Rev. Mir. McCulloch and his own pastor the Rev. M L. Haines.
 The programme of the evening opened with the selection ''Jubiate'' by the choir, which was followed by prayer by the Rev. Dr. Cleveland and Scripture reading by the Rev. Dr. Lucas.
 Gen. Harrison then stepped forward unat- tended, and, resting one hand upon the table he opened the exercises proper of the even ing with the following extemporaneous re- marks: II congratulate the Indianapolis Benevolent society and those later but not less precious charities which have gathered now in a circle about it upon the manifest in terest in this community which this great meeting attests. I recall many meetings of the benevolent society in contrast with this. It was formerly the habit to hold these ami versary meetings on the evening of Thanks giving day. Many of them in the earlier years of my recollection were but sparsely attended. Perhaps this was the result of the lethargy of overlooking on Thanks giving day, for notwithstanding the sparse attendance which sometimes reward the invitation of the society to its anniversary, there has always been, believe, a very wide spread and deep interest in the work of this benevolent organization. I congratulate the city of Indianapolis upon this magnificent demonstration of the fact that its people are not absorbed simply in trade, that their hearts are not wholly given to things that pertain to selfshness, but liberality and benevolence's friendly disposition to help the unfortunate is as characteristic of our city as it's interprise in the lines of trade"

She Doctors the Books in Approved Style,
 Speculates, and Departs,
 HARRISBURG, Pa, Dec. 3.-The defalca- tion of Miss Boletta Hoge clerk in the office of the collector of internal revenue in this city, is the talk of the town. She lost about S6, 5O0 in stock speculation, and the appointment of new collector last week alarmed her. Three bondsmen have made good the shortage in her accounts.
 Miss Hoge has been head clerk in the office ~ of the collector of internal revenue for some years. Her brother received letter, post marked Philadelphia, in which his sister said that she was defaulter, and had left town to avoid exposure. Miss Hoge stated in business like way that she had taken some S6, 800 during the past year, and had lost most of it in speculations. An examination of the books showed that her method was to retain some of the cash paid into the office each day, and then "doctor" the books
 A few days ago Miss Hoge informed a friend that it was her intention to take a trip to Europe, and there is an impression that she is now on the ocean. Miss Hoge has not enjoyed an enviable reputation in this city. She spent money lavishly In the letter to her brother, from Philadelphia, she stated that the amount of the defalca- tion should be collected from a friend, a lady wit h whom she associated and who has fortune by inheritance

To Sue Sheriff Gates.

The Eastern Stamping company of Port land proposes to bring suit against Sheriff Gates of New Haven county, who attached the Portland establishment recently. The attachment was brought by the Third Ma tional bank of New York, and probably it will support the sheriff in the threatened suit. The bank holds $20,000 of the paper of the late United States Stamping com pany of Portland, and it claims that the deceased corporation has an interest in it's successor. The officers of the new com pany deny that the old one has any interest in it. They allege that the attachment has injured the credit of the new stamping company, and claim damages to the extent of $20, ,000. The keeper who was placed in charge of the establishment by Sheriff Gates has been removed

CAMPBELL SPEAKS POSITIVELY.
He Asserts That MT. Allison Has Been
 Offered a Cabinet Position.

LIMA, O., Dec 8.-F T. Campbell, who was elected state railroad commissioner of Iowa by the handsome majority of 1000, is visiting in the city, and being bosom and confidential friend of Senator Allison was interviewed last evening as to MT. Allison's recent visit to Gen. Harrison. Mir. Campbell said: s'It can be put down for a certainty that Senator Allison has been invited to President Harrison's cabinet, and that the portfolio offered to him is that of secretary of the treasury. HIS accession would be es- pecially gratifying to the great west, where he is universally popular. It would be new departure on financial questions, as Wall street has dictated the financial policy of the nation ever since the war. The single standard policy of the present administra- tion, the efforts of both the President and the secretary of the treasury to destroy silver as a circulating med, 4, coupled with MT. Manning's recommendation against the issue of greenbacks coming into the treasury, was distasteful to the double standard advocates all over the country, and was the direct cause of the defeat of Weaver, Anderson and other Independent congressman in the west, who favored Cleveland's election, and resulted in the return of the scattering remnant of the greenback party i'll the west to the Repub- lican party.
 "In the cabinet Mr. Allison would be one of the presidents most confidential and trusty advisers. Of large experience in gov ernment affairs, he is recognized as one of the foremost financiers of the nation, not even excepting Sherman In the senate his advice and counsel have beenss universally soughv and accepted as the highest author ity. That he will accept the treasury port folio is probably true, but no other place would tempt him. As chairman of the sen ate committee on appropriation he occupies a most exalted position, more influential than cabinet position, and with the rap idly developing condition of the west MT. Allison will come to the front with formid- able following as a presidential candidate to succeed MT. Harrison

CONGRESSMAN KlLGoRE's OPINION
"We Must Accept the Enfranchised Negro
 and Make the Best of Him."

and Make the Best of Him.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. = Representative Kngore, of Texas, arrived here yesterday. Speaking of the result of the election, he said: "Mr. Harrison is going to give us conservative, busfness-likeu~ administration. l do not expect any harsh measures toward the south to be proposed: by him. I do not think he wants to do it, and I do not think he would dare do so if he did want to- The great business interests of the country will not tolerate any renewal of old time disturbance in the south. The negro ques- tion is a very serious one, There is no doubt about that. Especially is it so in states like Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. In Texas do no think we are so deeply concerned about it. In some counties where there is a large negro vote an agreement has been made to divide up the offices between the whites and the blacks-the whites taking all the offices in any way connected with finance, the blacks in some cases going to the legis- lature.n
 'sThen you would not disfranchise the negro, if you could2'
 II certainly would not now propose that as remedy for the condition of affairs in the south. We might as well accept the en- franchised negro and make the best of him, ' he concluded

THAT DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
The New Haven Murderer and Victim
 Buried at the Same Hour.


 The body of John B. King, who was murdered by George Donovan Thursday evening, and the body of the murderer. who committed suicide the same night, were buried at about the same hour, in New Haven, yesterday afternoon.
 Coroner Mix believes that Donovan re- mained in the barn, where he ran after the shooting, until nearly 10 o'clock At that time the coroner and police, who had been searching for the murderer's tracks in the vicinity of the barn, were in the house and the coast was clear. Donovan secured his coat and cut across lots towards the reser- voir. It is considered probable that the sight of the water inspired Donovan with the idea of suicide.
 The autopsy on Kings body and the ex- animation of Donovan's remains satisfied d the police as to the mctve for the crime. There was woman in the case but it is highly improbable that her name will ev CT be known for certain. People who live in the vicinity of the place where the tragedy occurred point to several young women as being the cause of the murder, but no one has brought any facts as yet to substantiate any of the statements.

Burning Itself Out.

CALUMET, Mich, Dec. 3.-A slight fall in the temperature in the burning Calumet and Hecla mine last night gives ground for hope that the fire is burning itself out. The mine will not be flooded, but the flames will be smothered and allowed to exhaust them selves. Preparations are being made to send down carbonic gas, the fire being so near the surface and there being strong draught up ward in the burning shaft. It is believed the flames will die out in few days, though they may continue for weeks
