tenslye cave in Of No. mines, of the Le-

seven miners were at work in the mine

by weakness of props supporting the sur

Of houses are scattered and destroyed and
families were compelled NJ fee. but il is
believed no lives were lost ON the surface.
The scene around the mouth of the mine
are heart rendering. Nearly all of the
entombed miners were married and had
wives. The wives. mothers and children
are gathering together hoping against
hope and weeping and moaning In most
distressed manner. Over Sc men are hard
at work digging into the mine. They
have brought out one dead body which Is
terribly burned. showing an explosion of
fire damp had occurred. This fact nearly
destroys all hope of rescue of any of thu,
men alive.

lifelike expression and was without the
slightest indication of physical pain. The
rope had hardly left mark. The people
stood around the coffin and gazed for q
moment at his face. 1t had not vet ceased
showing and the great soft flakes dropped
silentl, down on his dead body as though
to form white mantle for the wicked past.
The other Indians were cut down, but not a
trace of suffering was seen on their faces.
They will be buried to-day at st. lgnatius'
mission with the services OF the Catholic
church. The physicians did not make post
mortem examinations, but all unite in the
belief that the necks of the four men were
dislocated at the first shock. Those pres
ent who had seen many executions agree
that this must have been the case. They
say that it was the most remarkable execu-
ton known in the western country, from
the fact that all four men died without a
struggle under the drop system. One. gen.
tlelnan who has assisted at many similar
occasions says that a neck is broken on an
average but twice out of ten times when
the man falls.
After the bodies had been laid away the
spectators left the enclosure and the place
resumed its former appearance save for the
four white pine boxes in the corner. The
crowd turned up the streets and in few
minutes boys were yelling Extra, ali
about the hanging match!' This was be-
cause Messrs. MolliEe!li and Collins had

depot.
On the platform were the four pine boxes
each tagged for Rivalla. They contained
forms that once belonged to very bad In

The Opening of the Cortes at Lisbon
 Terminated in Fistic Scene.
 LISBON, September 16.-Upon the re- assembling of the Cortes yesterday, as great excitement was caused thorugh- out the city as the stormy debate on August 10 when the Portugese treaty expired. Shops and offices closed and thousands of citizens of all classes wended their way to the Parliament buildings. Soon after opening the Cortes, Ribeiro, Minister of Foreign Affairs, moved the adoption of the Anglo Portugese treaty. He began to read various notifications which the government adopted in order to assuage public hostility to the treaty, but before he had gone far he was silenced by the Progressionist minority. Amid the tumult Major Serepa Pinto arose and shouted to the Progressionists Hold your tongue" Upon this Progression ist priest named Brandae, assaulted Serepa Pinto and a lively pugislistic encounter took place. The President was unable to restore order and sus- pended the sitting. When the Cortes reassembled Ribeiro introduced motion into the Convention with Cortan modi- fications. This was referred to the com mittee, whereupon the Progressionists moved that Lieutenant Continh9, who seized the British steamer at Chrlmo deserved the confidence of the country. The sitting was concluded in an orderly mannpr
