PLEADING FOR MAXWELL.
Begging Governor Morehouse to Save
 the Englishman's Life.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, July 11.-Attorney John J. Martin began the argument for a communication of the sentence of Brooks, alias Maxwell, before Governor Morehouse yester- day. He opened by reading Maxwelrs pe- tition for communication of his sentence, and followed by reading the remonstrances against granting it. Of these there were less than ninety. Then letters and petitions were presented asking for mercy. There were about $500 ill all. They, like the remon- strances, were from all parts of the state and many from outside of it.
 The reasons assigned wore various. Many severely criticised the trial, and the Dingen- fielder episode also came in for a good share of obloquy, Six of the jury that tried Max we'll signed one petition. At noon recess was taken for lunch, the presentation having not yet been finished z Mr Fauntleroy pre- scented the legal argument for communication to the governor in the afternoon. No intima- tion of the governors probable action has been given.

Two Italians Fearfully Mangled and
 Probably Fatally Injured.
 About f clock yesterday afternoon two Italians, one named Louis Gamaro and the other Medaro, were blasting with dynamite at Birmingham. They were employed on the Derby extension about 800 yards above the Housatonic dam. A charge of dyna- mite exploded prematurely and both men were terribly injured. A lot of flying dirt and debris struck Gamaro between the eyes, destroying both of them. Both men were hurled in the air, and strangely enough were untouched by any of the flying fragments of rock. They received their most severe injuries as q consequence of the fall to the ground. They struck on the rocks, which were sharp and jagged Gamaro, in addition to losing his eyes, had his arm broken and his hands badly man. sled. He also received injuries externally and internally which make his recovery improbable. Medaro had his hands both cut and his right hand broken so that it will be necessary to amputate it. He was unhurt about the head, but received such severe internal injuries that his chances of living are less than those of his com panion.

IN CONGRESS,
MT. Honr's Speech on the Fisheries-The
 Mills Rill in the HnuSe

htllS blll Ill Ine House.
 WAsHINGToN, July 1.-The event in the senate yesterday was Mir. Hoar's speech OF the fishery question.
 MT. Evarts submitted an amendment t< the sundry civil bill appropriating S32. .OOJ for tho completion of the monument at Washington's headquarters at Newburg, N. Y.
 Consideration of the fishery treaty was then resumed. MT. Hoar addressed the sen. ate ill opposition to the treaty. He said he had no apology to offer for entering early upon this discussion. The fisheries question was the oldest in our foreign calculations. Nearly every important maritime power of ancient or modern times owed the founda. tion of its commercial prosperity and its naval strength to its fisheries.
 Our fishermen, he said were all we had left on the sea as a resource for a sudden occasion. If anything were wanting to show the importance Of this occupation to national defense and national wealth, it would be found in British and Canadian testimony, and the desire on the part of Canada and Great Britain to restrict the fishing grounds to which the United States shall have access, and to possess themselves without obstruc. .ion of the calling which brings to thl country its supply of fish and fish oilS had vastly larger purpose than mere struggle for q profitable industry, important as that may be.
 MT. Hoar thought it remarkable that, throughout the land, there is not to be found single fisherman who did not deem the provisions of the treaty outrage.
 MT. Hoar criticized the administration severely for consulting nobody during the progress of the negotiation; even after the senate, through the foreign relations com mittee had asked for information about the course of the negotiations and discussions This concealment of what took place, he charged was solely of Secretary Bayard: own seeking, and was contrary to the expec .ation and desire of the British commission ers. One of them had repaired to Canada during the discussion. Something took place which Sir Charles Tupper expected to mak, known to Canada, but which the admins tration desires and expects to conceal, no only from the American people, but iron .he senate. m..-.. ....
