Gill, another youth whose home is at 4S7 Oak street, stole four books from the room of Edward Capps, Yale student, yesterday afternoon and tried to sell them at Center street second. hand bookstore.

THE EWILKEs.BARRE MINE FIRE. The Eight Imprisoned Minors Net Yes Rescued.

THE WILKEs.BARRE MINE FIRE.
 The Eight Imprisonsd minors Nes Yes Rescued.
 WILKES BARRE, Pa., March 4.-The fire in the South Wilkes.Barre mine of the Lehigh and Wilkes Barre Coal company, which was caused last night by naked lamp, and cut of the exit of eight miners,
 was still burning early this morning. At
 about o'clock large part of the roof of
 the tunnel caved in by reason of the burning away of the props. The air pumps are be- ing worked to their utmost capacity to ven tilate the Stanton mine, which adjoins and is connected with the South Wilkes Barre shaft.
 If the men reached the Stanton mine they may be alive, as the air there is good. In order to reach it, however, they had to travel over Q mile from the place where they were working, and 1t is feared that they were overtaken and suffocated by smoke. mine officials to rescue the men. One of the
 city fire engines was put to work early this morning and 1t Is now pouring two large streams of water into the burning mine. The fire will cause loss of over $100,000
 The Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal company
 has been particularly unfortunate of late. Only . month ago seven men lost their lives in the company's mine at Plymouth. Five of the men entombed last night are married, and unless they are recovered alive they will leave five widows and twsnty-four chil- dren.
 Up to noon there is no apparent possibility of the rescue of the men or the recovery of the bodies until the mine has been flooded, which is now being done by means of the
 several city fire engines. This will probably require . week or more.
 At 8 o'clock this evening the last explor- ing party reported that the fire is rapidly burning in the shAft aud has made hsAdway of over seven hundred feet from the starting point of last night. All hops of finding the victims or any part of their bodies has been given, as they have all probably been incin- orated.

 CAIRO, Ills., March 4.-The Ohio river is now fifty miles wide at this point. It ex- tends from the Cairo Ievee which holds it banked up forty feet above the lower water mark in Kentucky till it strikes the hills there, forming one solid sheet of water, except for the narrow strips of rock bound earth upon which the Mobile and Ohio and Illinois Central railroads run south. A mile below here it joins the Aississippi which in turn extends into Missouri another fifty miles, making the combined width of the rivers over one hundred miles. The current Is terrific and brings great quantities of heavy drift, making navigation perilous. The ferrybo Three States made two trips to East Cairo, Ky, yesterday and one up the Mississippi to Missouri, rescuing people camped out on ground which they supposed was beyond the reach of the flood, but which was being rapidly submerged.
 At Paduoah, Ky, fifty miles up the Ohio, there is much uneasiness. The city is not protected by levees as Cairo is and in 1882 1t was flooded to the depth of six feet. AL ready the water has reached within a few feet of the. door of the Richmond house, which stands on the river front and the two great tobacco warehouses are flooded. Ten thousand hogsheads of tobacco stored in them were removed last week. On Sunday the marine ways were compelled to suspend operations because of the flood and the steamer Idlewild which was undergoing re- pairs had to be let down unfinished.

 WASHINGTON, D. O., March 4,-On motion of MT. Hale of Maine joint resolution for taking the census in Alaska, allowing special agents there $7 day to cover all expenses, was taken from the calendar and passed.
 The resolution offered yesterday by Mr. Voorhees, of Indiana in regard to the lease of the fur-seal islands in Alaska to tho North American Commercial company was reported back from the finance committee by Mir. Morrill, of Vermont adversely, on the ground that the treasury department had already made the lease and that the committee had no power to interfere in the matter.
 Mir. voorhees said that there was nothing further from his intention in offering the resolution than to make any imputation on tho conduct of the secretary of tho treasury. From information in his possession he had which had not been properly brought to the secretary's attention and his object had been to bring those facts to the secretary's con- alteration. The committee having decided that the matter was res adjudicata, he ac- quiesced in that decision. The resolution was indefinitely postponed.

 Fer many Years Proprietor of the Cleveland Leader-A Pioneer Rspub-
 lcan = His Bold Uttsrances in War I Times.
 CLEVELAND, O., March 4.-Mr. Edwin Cowles, editor of the Cleveland Leader, died at his homo this morning at the age of sixty i've years. He had been confined to his house during the last three weeks, most of the time to his bed.
 Mr. Oowles was born in Austinburgh, Ashtabula county, O., on September IS. 1885. He was of Puritan and Huguenot percentage. and descended on the Cowles side from one of three brothers who emisrated to America in 1885: On his mothers side hs field, Conn. In 1889 he accompanied his father to Cleveland, where he was educated, and learned the trade of printer. When nineteen years of aze, in partnership with another, he em. parked in the printing business on his own account. The co-partnership lasted until 1859. and upon its dissolution he became member of the firm of Msdill, Cowles G Co.,, established as the publishers of tho Forest City Democrat. In 1854 the name of the newspaper was changed to the Cleveland Leader. In 1855 MT. Cowles bought the i'm tsrests of his partners, who emigrated to Chicago and purchased the Chicago Tribune, of which his brother, the late Alfred Cowles, became business manager.
 Daring the winter of 1854'55 the rspub. lican party first took shape in the editorial rooms of the Leader, resulting in the first republican national convention over called, which was held in Pittsburg. Nr. Cowles conducted the paper on his own account un- til 1866; when he organized the Leader Print ing company, in which he retained controll- ing interest. From 1854 to 1859 he was the business manager of the pa- per, and it was not until the latter year that he assumed the editorial chair rspublicanism immediately after the election of President Lincoln, when he was one of the first to advocate openly the use of the army and navy to suppress secession.
 From 1861 to 1866 he was postmaster of Cleveland. After the battle of Bull Run he wrote an article entitled 'tNow is the Time to Abolish Slavery" which was denounced far and wide, and the president was urged to remove him from office to conciliate the south, but declined to do so.
