By Individual Losses of Cash by Ffrss,
 Railway Accidents, Etc.
 WASHINGTON, March S-The secretary of the treasury transmitted to the house yester- day statement from the treasurer of the United States relative to the probable loss by destruction of legal tender currency. The treasurer says:
 "When the outstanding circulation was filed by law at $346, ,6S1 .0l6, the discount for missing parts of notes amounted to $129, ,9S1, of which sum sl01 ,S66 had been covered into the treasury on May II, 1875, leaving a balance of S2S, ,115, by which the amount re- ported as outstanding on May Sl, 1878, was not reduced The discount has now accumu- lated to S9l ,95S, and not having been replaced by the issue of notes the legal tender circula- don has been diminished to that extent"
 After tracing the probable causes of the destruction of notes by fires, railway acci- dents, etc., the treasurer goes on to say that it may be safely argued that the gain to the government will be due mainly to the de- struction of notes under the denomination of $50. The statement of the treasurer con- cludes: "As far as I am able to interpret the tables elaborate tables are submitted with the treasurers letter. the aggregate loss on all the issues up to Jan 31, 1SSS, would seem to me not less than SS, 7O0, 900, and $6 4OO, ,OOC of this sum may be regarded as having been destroyed and out of circulation prior to May Sl 1S1Sn

Convicts in Alabama Tell Strange Stories
 of Midnight Hangings.
 BIRMINGHAM, Ala, March 3.-There is marked religious revival among the prisoners confined in jail here, which owes its existence to the superstition of the converts. The jai is filled with criminals of the worst class brought here by the wonderful stories whict have gone out concerning the place. On the 22d of last December George Williams, who had murdered fellow convict, was execute in the jail yard, and the gallows, with tho rope hanging in the air, was left standing fol future use The prisoners, 15O in number: crowded to their cell gratings to witness the final plunge of their friend George.
 A few nights later two or three inmates who happened to beAlooking out at the mid night moon were mortified to see George again ascend, adjust the rope to his neck anc fall through the trap with realistic effect The prisoners told the story as soon as they recovered from their fright, and the nexl night others witnessed repetition of the dreadful spectacle. Since that time the ghos, has been a nightly visitor, to the terror of ttI inmates, who have gone to psalm singing anc praying. The jail officials are not very anx ious to disabuse the minds of the believers il the ghost, as it has the effect of making then more tractable.

 MONTREAL, March 3.-A defalcation of big proportions is now the topic of the town, and more interest is taken in the matter by the public than is usually the case, as the owner ship of large tract of the Mountain park will likely be in dispute in the courts in few days. The heirs of the Hall estate claim that there is shortage of $25O, 1000, while it is admitted by the accused parties that the shortage is over $1OO, ,OOO The whole blame is cast on the management of the estate, and Mrs. Ahern, of Vandreuil, and Mrs. Fenner, the heirs, have retained R. Lafiamme, Q. C., and Strachan Bethune, Q. C., as counsel.
 It has been discovered that great deal of the securities counted as assets are worthless, including $2O,O0O worth of North Carolina bonds and $1O,OO0 worth of stock of the de- funct Maritime bank. A MT. Lindsay, the curator of the estate, now in New York at tending to the settlement of the case with the Maritime bank, is involved, and has offered his property to square the account The Mountain Park is concerned because of the disobedience of the executors of the will of Benjamin Hall in selling the park property outright to the city

GERMANY'S DYING PRINCE.
THE CESSATION OF OFFICIAL DAILY
 BULLETINS

From San Reno Ordered by the Em-
 peror-Bitter Prejudice Against Dr.
 Mackenzie in Berlin-Many Signs That
 Point to a Crisis.
 LONDON, March 3.-The cessation of the daily bulletins, and the strict prohibition of all authentic information regarding the con- dition of the crown prince, has caused in- tense excitement in Berlin and no little in- dignatlon. The Germans in general are vent ing their spleen on Dr. Mackenzie, and it would not be safe for that gentleman to make his appearance in Berlin just at present, for should he be seen and recognized on the streets he would undoubtedly be mobbed, so great is the feeling against him. This recent suppression of news of the royal patient is at the command of the emperor, who was griev- ously offended at report which appeared in Berlin newspaper, containing an. account that came too near the truth to suit the au- thorities. The reception of this order for silence concerning the crown prince carries with it a gloom that is felt both on the con- tinent and here.
 It is considered on all sides that this is but the prelude to the fatal end and that official silence will give way only to the official an- nouncement of the sufferers death. Many other signs point to crisis which seems now in the gathering darkness to be not far off. Orders for usual festivities remain ungiven, and postponements of those already planned are announced. Even the preparations for the silver wedding of the Prince and Princess of Wales, which occurs on the 10th of this month, are proceeding slowly, and hang fire, awaiting the result of further developments at San Reno.
 Professor Waldeyer, who has gone to San Reno at the request of Emperor William, although pupil of Virchow's, has radically different theories about cancer and the treat ment of cancer from his instructor, and is especially fitted by previous study for the peculiar case of the crown prince. Much seems to depend on his report to the emperor, and it is looked upon generally in the light of a final judgment in the case. His opinion, therefore, is anxiously awaited.
 Later-Official news has been received here which states that Prince Frederick Will. iam's case has assumed an alarming aspect In consequence the queen has directed the postponement of all proposed levees and fes- | tivities.
 SAN RENO, March 3.-Arrangements are being privately made to transport the crown prince to Berlin, whither he will be taken shortly. Prince William, who arrived yester- day, is experimenting the arrangements for his fathers removal.

 HAzLEToN, Pa., March 3.-For the firsl time in six months the Laurel Hill, Hazleton. Stockton and Humboldt collieries-four oi the largest in the Lehigh region-were worked yesterday to their full capacity.
 All day long there was rush of men at tht offices of A. Pardee & Go. and Linderman & Skeer, to secure their old p'a, es in the mines and breakers The most of them were taker back and signed an agreement to resume work on the same terms they were working under when they struck on Sept. 10 last
 The only determinations made by the op orators were against those who have beer most conspicuous as leaders of the strike These men, the operators say, will never again be taken into their employ. Some o1 the foremost leaders have been exerting every effort to check the stampede of the men, bu1 no attention has been paid to them.
