SHOCKING DISASTER.

One Hundred and Fifty Miners Perish In .
COlliery Exp,oston-The Disaster Dre to
Culpable Negligence.
CURED yesterday in a cOlliery at Aber-
sychan, in Monmouthshire, ten miles
northwest of Newport. Three hundred
miners were imprisoned and for several
hours no communication could be had
with them. An opening was finally eff
fected and at noon 200 of them had been
rescued. A number of those taken out
were severely injured.
The cause Of the explosion was the
flooding of pits adjacent to that on
which the explosion occurred, when gas
was dislodged and forced into pits where
work was in progress and there it was
ignited and exploded. There must have
been great quantity Of gas as the ex-
plosion had tremendous force and was
heard mile distant. All the gearing
in the shaft was thrown into the air as
II from the mouth OF a volcano and
simultaneously vast, bright volume OF
fame shot forward, followed by dense,
heavy column Of smoke.
The first party Of resources endeavored
to penetrate the pit through the old
workings. They got far enough to
be able to see groups of the dead but
could not reach them and we're compelled
to move by the suffocating volume of
smoke that arose in their direction.
Upon the first appearance of diminu-
ton in the volume of smoke rescuers
went down the main shaft and reached
the scene of the catastrophe. They
rescued large number of miners yet
alive, but all very badly burned, and
they brought out six dead bodies nearly
all SO mutilated that recognition of
their identity is impossible. The latest
estimate of the dead is $50.
The colliery surgeons are satisfied
that of those killed in the pit half were
the victims of fire damp and conclusion
and half were killed by suffocation.
Sixty bodies have been recovered. all
of which are mutilated beyond recogni-
ton.
1t is ascertained that the mine has
been in dangerous condition for some
time past. Not long ago an explosion
occurred in an adjoining pit, by which
five men were killed. The damaged pit
was flooded and the water forced the
gas into the pit which was the scene of
yesterdays disaster. Upon this informa-
ton it is already suggested that owners
of the mine be prosecuted for criminal
negligence

THE PORTLAND FLOODS.
Caused BY the Rising of the Willamette an
Columbia Rivers.

Caused by the Rising of the Willamette and
Columbia Rivers.
PORTLAND. Ore, Feb. This morn
ing the river at this point was at stand
still. At CORVALLIS and Oregon City it
was falling at the rate Of an inch an
hour.
The water in Portland is the highest
known since 1856, but SO far it has been
confined to a comparatively small dis
trict and has occasioned no serious
damage. The water last night was
twenty-eight inches above high water
mark. and extended four squares back
from the river front to Third street
The flood has been caused by the SIM
ultaneous rising of the Willamette and
Columbia rivers, which are usually at
the high stage several months apart.
The isolation of Portland from the
East for the last three days was not
caused by floods but by landslides along
the Columbia river obstructing the
tracks and destroying poles and wires
on the Oregon Railway & Navigation
Company's lines.

EXPRESS ROBBERY.

4 Pacific Express Clerk at Dallas. Tex,
Steals . Package Containing $4,000 and
Skips.
ST.. LOUIS, Feb. 6.-Yesterday L. A.
Fuller, superintendent Of the Pacific
Express Company, was notified by the
Commercial Bank of this city that a
package containing S35, 900 in green
backs consigned to that bank by the
City Nationa. Bank, of Dallas. Tex, and
for which the Commercial Bank held
the receipt Of the Pacific Express Com
pany, was missing.
February the City National Bank of
Dallas RENTED to the Commercial
National Bank of st, Louis tho sum OF
$50, 600, of which $4,000 was gold in a
bag and SS5, 900 in bills enclosed in .
regular express package. The gold was
duly received two days ago and deliv-
cred to the bank, which reported to SUI
perintendent Fuller that the gold was
only part of the remittance from the
City National Bank and that the bank
held two receipts-one for S15, 900 and
one for 335, 900.
intendent Fuller telegraphed Assistant
Superintendent Aiken at Dallas notify
ing him of the shortage, and asking him
to investigate and forward information
as soon as possible.
Mr.. Aiken's reply that there was no
trace of the missing package there fully
confirmed Superintendent Fuller's fears,
and with it came the additional inform
alton that the money clerk of the Dallas
office, young man named F. A. Wal
ton. had been missing since last Sunday
night
Walton's fight led to the belief at
Dallas that he must be defaulter, and
an investigation was at once instituted.
but without result, as the cash OF the
Dallas Office was found to be intact.
When Assistant Superintendent Aiken
received Superintendent Fuller's mes
sage it opened up a new avenue for in
vestigation and the cunning scheme of
Walton to secure delay in the discovery
Of his shortage was unfOlded. He had
made out two receipts-one for $4,000
and one for S35, 900 on one bank. On the
duplicate forwarded to st. Louis, how
ever, no mention was made of tho S35,-
600 and it was not until the Commercial
Bank of this city had notified the Dallas
Bank of the receipt of but $4,000 of the
$4,000 that there was the least SuSpic-
ion of any thing wrong.
After pursuing this line of inquiry to
the Assistant Superintendent Aiken tel
egraphed as follows to Superintendent
Fuller: ovation, our money clerk, has
taken 200. He was with the Amer
lean Express Company at Iowa, Mich,
for five years. He came to US from
Wells, Fargo & Co. His father resides
at st. Joseph, Mo. Have traced him to
the Indian Territory and have detect
i've on his trail. Agent Garrison leaves
for St Louis tonight"
Walton is about twenty-five years old
and has generally led an exemplary life
heretofore.

A RAY OF HOPE.

An Order Reopening Their Cases Gives the
Imprisoned Chicago Anarchists Some
Hope.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Feb. Moses Sol
ONION. the Chicago attorney for Fielder,
Schwab and Neebe, the imprisoned An
archists, yesterday received an order
from the Chief Justice of the Illinois
Supreme Court granting writ of error
from the United States Supreme Court
to the Supreme Court of Illinois for the
purpose of allowing the case to again go
before that court for review.
Attorney Solomon had always con-
tended that the prisoners were deprived
of a constitutional right by not being
permitted to be present when the State
Supreme Court passed sentence upon
them. The United States Supreme
Court, in passing upon the case,
said: 1.-The objection that the defendants
were not actually present in the Supreme
Court of the State at the time sentence
was pronounced can not be made on the
record as it now stands, because on its
face it shows they were present. If this
is not in accordance with the fact the
tuuSG DC COrreCpeU DelOW. uOC
here. 1t will be time enough to consider
whether the objection presents Fed
eral question when the correction is
made"
The State Supreme Court has refused
to allow an amendment of the record;
but not being satisfied, apparently. that
Federal question is not involved, has
now consented to the Federal Courts
finally determining this matter. 1t has
never been the practice of the Supreme
Court of this State to have prisoners
present when that body passed
upon the Judgment of lower
courts. but if the Federal Court
decides that such right exists it will
only give the Anarchist prisoners a new
trial and possibly freedom, but will witt
ate the Judgment which consigned their
comrades TO the gallows and the grave.
While good lawyers seem to think this
will not be the outcome Of the matter,
Solomon and his clients feel otherwise.
The case will come up for hearing at
Washington during the October term Of
court.

TALKING UP MERCHANTS WEEK
The Spring Festival Already Being
Advertised in the Country.

The Spring Festival Already Being
Advertised in the Country.
The travelling men who come in Sundays
to spend the day in Savannah report that a
big interest is being taken in Merchants
week. They are advertising it; and already
they say it is known throughout Georgia.
The idea suggested by one of the MORN
ING NEWS subscribers the other day to
have the 100000 bale cotton movement
celebrated by wedding in cotton house
in the park extension, is meeting with great
favor, and especially in the country. If
the cotton exchange and those
interested will give the necessary
amount to carry out the project it is bound
to be feature of the weeks programme.
The suggestion as to the 1000, 600 barrel of
naval stores celebration is also a popular
idea 1t is estimated that 10000
people will be here during Merchants week.
The railroads here, it is understood, will aid
the movement in every way possible. They
will give very low rates, and if the crowds
warrant it special trains will be run. In
the meantime the committee having the
matter in charge is doing everything
possible to perfect the preliminary arrange
ments, and the subcommittee will be ap-
pointed III day or two.

STRUCK NEW STRATUM.
Somett ing That Looks Like Coal fl
the Deep Artesian Well

Somett ing That Looks Like Coal in
the Deep Artesian Well
There is much curiosity as TO the charac-
ter Of formation which was met with in
the deer, artesian well just as the drilling
was suspended for the week Saturday after
noon. The drill had been running in clay
for two days, when it struck something
harder, and the drill was working in the
stratum at the time Of suspendiDg work.
The pump was sent down, and il
brought up something which has every APP
pearance Of coal, portions Of the drillngs
being OF greenish hue, and under the glass
appear to be porous like coke. Other par
ticles are jet black, and evidently crystal
carbons.
A MORNING NEWS reporter visited the
well yesterday afternoon, and secured
samples Of the drilling which were treated
with a:id. The acid, which Stacked the
lime particles, had no effect upon the darker
portions Of the drillings, neither changing
their COLOR nor character.
Contractor Joyce says that he believes the
drill has struck coal formation, but what
its depth will be, or the character of the
carbon, lie is unable 10 say. He is quite
anxious TO get to drilling this morning, and
will send down the pump after a half
hours drilling, for further examination of
the new and unknown character of the
deposit.
There were crowds at the well all Of yes
terday, and in almost every instance the
visitors took cups or goblets to drink the
pure water which flows with a continuous
roar from the we'll Many go thirsty now
