WAS IN A WHITE HEAT|
Why Sir Charles Russell Hurried Out
 of the Court Room.
Cause, But only Goes to show the
 Weakness of the Case Against Hlm. The Irish Leader Calls 1t Unfair

LONDON, May 1O.-There has been an exciting scene between Sir Charles Rus Bel and Justice Hannen, during which both KIT. Parnell and Sir Charles were repeatedly rebuked by the bench.
 The trouble arose through Sir Richard Webster bringing. forward Mir. Parnelf s check counterfoils, showing that pay mentS of S1O had been made at intervals by MT. Parnell to Curley and Caffray while they were in prison, previous to their trial for the Phoenix park murders. Webster declined to examine MT. Parnell on these points until further documents and affidAvits had been put in.
 -Mr. Parhell protested against the injus- tice of this course, as leaving quite un- necessary and wrongful suspicion upon his conduct in the minds of the public, which he could immediately remove by an explanation. This incident closed by Russel's abrupt departure in a white heat of passion. The court adjourned prematurely during difficult point in the examipation of Archbishop Walsh, in which the advice of Sir Charles was needed.
 MT. Parnell claims that 1t was malici- ously unfair to choose few from the hundreds of similar payments which he had made to men whom he knew only as suspects, and not as criminals.
 7 The whole affair reflects most damag- ingly upon the attorney generals and the governments animus in this case, and it indicates how weak and hopeless their case, or the Times case, Is, when } their entire hope of any success is based upon subterfuges and the occasional chance of making wilfully false inn pression upon the public. They tried to do this with regard to MT. Parnells s speeches and lectures in America, in which they were very emphatically put down by a plain tale from the great leader; and they tried it again in this question of. payments, in winch attempt they are also bound to fall.
 Sir James Hannen's ruling against MT. Parnelrs explanation looked very much indeed like gross partiality toward the government; but it would not be fair to charge such a thing as this, when the general course of the trial goes to show khat he is entirely just and careful. The obe permanent effect of this incident is to\excite a good deal of disgust at the Tory attoney-generars unfairness and trickery.

 SYDNEY, N. s. w., May 1G.-Dr. Knabpe, late German consul to Samoa, has arrived here on board the steamer Lubeck.
 Advices from Samoa to April 30 state that the natives are quiet. The position of the hostiles is unchanged.

Tamasese declined to agree to the proposition unless he was recognized as king. Admiral Kimberly thereupon issued a proclama- tkon urging that the natives maintain peace.

 1t was interesting to watch the di{aeh ent,manner in which the governors of different sections returned the salutes from the crowd The old governor of Delaware had the Grandison1an manner of the old school. When the populace vociferated at him he took off his hat with sweeping curve and bowed almost to the saddle peak with the most benig- nant and gratified expression. The gov ernor of Pennsylvania simply lifted his hat once or twice in a grave and ab- stracted manner. Georgias governor smiled and bowed civilly as he might have done in greeting to personal friends. Fitzhugh Lee sat very erect with the seat of soldier, and so many were the. plaudits bestowed upon him that he rode bareheaded great part oi the time, lowing gravely and slowly. from right to left. Governor Hill never .ma2ed his head = AA and pulled off and replaced his hat in the quick, decisive manner which Is eminentlY characteristic to the manner of a New Yorker who Is very much obliged for your attentions, but abhors everything ceremonious and grandiloquent. Considerable merriment was created on one of the club galleries by the remark of an irreverent member, when Hill removed his hat and displayed his smooth bald crown, that it looked pol. lshed and smooth enough for one to be able to take photograph upon it, and some one quickly replied that if 1t could be coated with gelatine 1t would no doubt be sensitive enough to take a picture of the White House upon it, an'i perhaps there may have been some picture of the presidential mansion on the inside of that polished cranium as he rode up the long avenue and noted how lustily the great multitude of half million voters cheereG him.

 The gas bubbles out through two pools and poles seventeen feet long fail to find the bottom of the holes through which 1t oozes. The gas when touched with a long taper makes a loud explosion and then burns with a flame that changes color from blue to yellow and white.

CRUSHED IN A SHAFT.
ln Awful Disaster Near New Phila
 delphia, Pa.
TEEN MIN ERS KILLED
of Two Hungarian La Laborers-Lynch. ing Of the Men Spoken oE-Bodiea Not Recovered.


 PoTTsvI1LE, Pa., May 1O.-At late hour last night news of a, frightful disas- ter reached this place from the Alliance Coal Mining company's Kasha William colliery, near New Philadelphia, this state. Ten men had been killed by a most stupid blmder of cheap imported Hungarian laborer. The names of the killed are: dren.
 John Pritlavish whose wife killed by Peter Baronovski now awaiting execution. and who was married four weeks ago to another woman.
 Hugh Cablin aged 22 years, single.
 Patrick Mcdonald, aged 25 years. single.
 George Bendel aged 30 years.
 John Moore aged 21 years.
 Albert Dwyer. aged % years.
 Edward Stultz, Polander
 Steve Watson. . Hungarian.
 At about o'clock, as ten inside miners were being hoisted up the shaft, and when they had reached height of six teen feet. two Hungarians ignorantlJ pushed an empty mine car over the t@p The ship descends 500 feet, and through this awful distance the car, the weight of which was ton and a half, went hurl- ing down, knocking timbers out, break ing the wire rope with which the cage was being hoisted and dropping it into the stump, and finally landing on top of 1t with fearful crash.
 At the foot of each slope or shaft Is 6 pit into which the filthy water of the mine is drained. and whence it is pumped out. At Kaska William the stump was twenty feet deep. The cage with its load of human freight fell into this hole.
 The foot of the shaft was surrounded by men waiting to be hotsted. They heard and saw the slaughter, but were paralyzed with fear and powerless. The alarm was sounded as quickly as possi. ble, and an attempt was made to help those in the cage. It is doubtful whether any of them can be recognized. They must be ground in a shapeless mass o1 human flesh, discolored and rendered less possible of recognition by the filth and black water of the stump.
 A sad circumstance in connection with Foreman Boyles death Is the fact that 1t was not his turn to- come up the shaft. He secured passage on the cage by trading with Tom Hoolihan, driver boy, in order that he, Boyle, might catch a train up the valley to New Philadelphia and procure supply of oil for the night men.
 All the people who gathered about the scene were outspoken in their denuncia tion of the company for employing the ignorant and cheap laborers in such i'm portant places. There was talk of lynch ing the two Huns who had carelessly caused the disaster, but Squire Winlacl of .Middleport, who was on the ground took prompt measures to check it.
 Mine Inspector Gay did not receive tht news until late, and he was among tn, earliest to start from here to the scene The rope was spliced as quickly as possi ble, and new cage rigged up. Inspec tor Gay descended as soon as he could Word came up that it would be som, | time before the bodies could be re ahed
