DEATH IN A SHAFT.
Four Men Killed in a Pennsylva-
MIA Mine Explosion.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa. Sept. 2O.-A ter
rible explosion of gas took place IN the
Murray shaft of the Lehigh and Wilkes
barre Coal company this afternoon.
Ropes were strung around the mouth of
the shaft, and no one was allowed
within twenty feet of the opening, as
it is feared that a second explosion
may take place at any time. There
were five men in the shaft at
the time of the explosion. Their
names are Lawrence Casey. James Sui
livan, James Boswell, Fire Boss Edward
Bulson and Anthony Jennings. This
shaft is considered one of the easiest in
the world. The origin of the explosion
is unknown. Hundreds of people were
gathered around anxiously awaiting the
results of the rescuing party, which
went down the shaft as soon as it was
safe to do so. The party consisted Of
Supt. Scote. Foreman James Ford, Nor
gan Morgans and Mine Inspector Will
fans. They returned after an hours
search and reported that all were dead
except Edward Bulson, who was Sc
riously burned. Later on the dead we're
brought from the pit to the surface, a
distance of 600 feet, and taken to their
late homes.

Tremendous Waves Capsize the
Ship Ventura.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Sept. 20.-The
British ship Ventura put in this evening
i'll distress from a hurricane, encoun-
tered Sept. 10, in latitude 129, west.
The Ventura sailed from here Aug.
for West Portland. On Sept. Is the
captain noticed signs of an approaching
storm and prepared to meet it. The
wind and sea increased all night and in
the morning there was a fearful gale
blowing. By 1880 it had increased to
hurricane. Every shred of canvas on
the yards was whipped to fragments
and the ship flew along under bare
poles. Suddenly an enormous wave
hundred feet high. 1t lowered
over the vessel for moment and
then passed clean over it. Everything
movable was washed away. Two of
her boats, rails and stanchions were
torn clean off and borne away. The
iron door of the lee cabin was burst in
as II by batterlng ram. and the cabin
filed with water. Two men, Paul
Vol, an able seaman, and John
Snoto, sailmaker, were swept
overheard, and wave threw Snoto
iar 10 tile leaWarQ. HIS ShlpmateS
saw him clinging to piece of broken
boat, but could not help him. The
waves grew heavier, pounding the ship
furiously. Suddenly she was capsized,
turning clean over on her side, leaving
only the weather bilge above the sea,
Alternately the bnlwarks to which sail
ors were clinging, and the keel were
above water. At5p. M, the vessel ent-
cred the center of the storm and was for
ten minutes calm, then the wind began
again from nearly the opposite direc-
ton. The vessel partly righted. After
shift some of the cargo and right the
ship. From then on she had fair wealth
er while returning to this city. The
storm from which she suffered is be-
lieved to be the same that damaged the
ship Queen Victoria, which put into
this port few days ago.

THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL.
Its Annual Report Makes Fair
Showing.


CHICAGO, Sept. 2O.-The annual re-
port of the directors of the Illinois Cen
tral railroad will be read before t6e stock
holders next week. 1t is report that
is likely to do good service, as an an
swer to the more or less irresponsible
charges that have in the last few weeks
been so freely made against the Illinois
Central management. In general way
1t shows an increase in gross earnings,
and only slight decrease in net earn
lngS. 1t demonstrates practically no
increase In the bonded debt, though i'm
portant construction work has been go
ing on, and an unusual amount of perma.
nent improvements has been made on
the old line. 1t shows the surplus divi-
dend account has been increased. 1t
states that the physical condition of the
property is much better than it was
year ago, and the earning power and
usefulness OF the property in general
improved. The report will ask the
stockholders to vote to issue S5,OOO,O 600
new stock. The proceeds of this stock
are wanted to make permanent improve
mems in the road and for new equip
ment. The report further shows the
gross earnings of the whole road were
SIC, ZOO, against SIS, 900 the pre-
vious year. Operating expenses in
creased to s11 ,447, 900 from SO, 763, 900 for
the previous year. Net earnings
were S5,279,00O, against S., 900 for
the year ending June 80, 1eS9
The Dubuque & Sioux City line earned
81, $4,000, against S2,OOO,O0O last year.
The operating expenses increased to
S1,70O,000 from S1,5S4,00O last year, and
the net earnings increased to, 1896, 600
from s425,O 900. By far the most import
ant construction of the year was the
Cairo bridge. The cost of the bridge was
nearly s3,0O0,000. The expense of this
Improvement was charged to the Chi
cago, st. Louis 6e New Orleans railroad.
That company has issued bonds on ac-
count of this bridge to the amount of
S2.594,000. None of these bonds have
yet been sold, but are held in the treas
ury of the Illinois Central company.
The cost of the bridge has been actually
met from the Illinois Central construc-
ton account

NO QUORUM.
The House Wholly Unable tC
Transact Business.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-The journal
was read without objection, but Mr..
O'Farrall, of Virginia. objected to
its approval. The question being
upon the approval, Mr.. O'Farrall de-
demanded the yeas and nays, and as the
Democrats rose in support of this de-
mand, their names were noted. The
speaker cOnnted 81 Democrats present,
not enough to order the yeas and nays.
Mr.. Breckenridge, of Kentucky,
demanded tellerS, and this time
the speaker counted 4S members.
Mr.. Breckinridge-You only counted thirty
seven before.
The Speaker-This is not the first time the
gentlemen on that side have appeared and
disappeared.
Mr.. Breckinridge-And this is not the first
time the count of the chair has turned out to
be incorrect
The Speaker-The chair desires to say that
yesterday the count by tellers showed two
less than the count by the chair and that was
because of two members disappearing after
the speakers count.
Mr.. Crisp-Therefwas a difference Of six.
The Speaker-The gentleman is mistaken.
Mr.. Breckinridge-The country will know
the facts
The yeas and nays having been or
dered, there was Democratic exodus,
and in moment the Democratic seats
were well nigh deserted. The vote re-
suited: Yeas 151, nays Ono quorum;
and the house at o'clock adjourned.

AGREEMENT PROBABLE.
Tariff Conferrees About Ready to
ReDOrt.

4 WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-The con-
ferrees Oh the tariff bill had another
two hours meeting this morning, and
made further progress towards agree
ment. The paper schedule was disposed
of; also the hemp, flax and jute sched-
ule, with the exception of binding twlne.
The senate amendment relating to fish
was modified so as to limit free importa-
tions of fish caught by American YES
sells, equipped with American nets
and other appliances. The delegation
of the Louisiana Planters association
will leave for home tonight. They say
they believe the cOnferreeS will report
an amendment to the sugar schedule by
which the bounty on sugar, which is to
take effect March l, shall be applicable
to all the product of the cane not then
manufactured. This will be satisfactory
to them. The provision for the payment
of a bounty for silk culture is said to
have been stricken out. Another full
meeting of the conferrees will be held
Monday. At that time an effort will be
made to order report of the bill, even
if there be dlsagreemento on some points.
From present indications an agreement
will not be reached on all questions of
difference by that time.
