DUNBAR Pa, Juno 17.-All night long the
rescuing parties remained at tho mouth OF the
manhoe at Furm Hill mine but their efforts
were fruitess, and whom daylight broke upon
them they were no nearer the unfortunate men
entombod in the burning mine.
At i've o'clock last evening all hone OF rescu-
ing the imprisoned miners alive was aban-
donod. Efforts were made to enter the burning
slope through the Mahoney and the Ferguson
mines, 1t was found impossible to get near the
men through tho former owing to the forma-
tion OF the SLOPE and In the Ferguson pit the
air was so bad that 1t was impossible 10 travel
any distance. Under these conditions the m ost
Bangutne of the workers yielded, and IL was
then determined to cut on oil fresh air and lot
the mine burn itself out. that the bodies OF the
men might be recovered.
AZ the. first drift a solid wall OF brick
Material was wheeled down the entrance to
where the men were at work. and an air fan
was set at work supplying fresh air to the res
cuers.
Early this morning Martin Markey, pit boss
OF tho Anchor mines, made a daring attempt to
reach the right ,drltinGs of the Ilill Farm
mines from the Mahoney entrance, one and
one-halt miles away across the hills. He
crawled over drifts and fallen slate to within
lOJ yards OF the fatal chambers, and sounded
again and again but listened for response
In vain.
Some slight hope was raised at noon by the
return Of Walter McCleary. one Of the rescpinR
party. who reported that far down in the slope
he heard mule braying as IL In great distress.

which had been strengthened by malleablo

Tho Government counsel Mansell Jones,
said he had no suggestion to make regarding

James Moleson, Lloyds's engineer and sur

quality of the work and materials. He said
cast steel was stronger than iron but 1t was
more expensive. and that was the reason 1t

fore. The material workmanship on the YES

the lignum vtir being, worn out OF the BUSH
but how this occurred he could form no opin-
ion. Lignum vitiB was the very hest material
known for such bearings. The gun metal lines

The Court OF Appeals handed down yester-
day decision reversing the judgments Of the
courts below, and permitting the Third Avenue
Railroad Company to change It's road to a cable
road. This settles It, and down goes the cable.
The struggle was begun three years ago
when the railroad company contended that,
under the language Of its charter which per-
mitted the use of any motive power "except
steam on the road" 1t had the right TO operate
by cable. Corporation Counsel Beekman
thought not The railroad company applied
for mandamus to compel the Commissioner
OF Public Works to grant it a permit to open
the street. Judge Patterson granted the man
damus. The General Term reversed this de-
cision, holding that, as the cable was operated
by steam, 1t was within the prohibition OF the
charter. The Court OF Appeals, by n vote OF
four, to three, Upheld the General Term, and
further held that. as the construction ola cable
