The Polish Coiliery Disaster.

A dispatch from Vienna states that
sixiy-eight bodies Of victims OF the cxplo-
sion have already been recovered from
tho Trinity coal pit In Polish ostrau.
The bodies of the unfortunate miners
who have been recovered from tho pit
present u horrible appearance. They are
terribly scorched aud so drcadfully mutt
lated that 1t Is very dinicult To recognize
them by their features. Seventeen OF the
men who were recovered in an uncon-
scious condition have since been revived.
Heart rcuding scenes arc witnessed NJ
the mouth OF the pit US the rcscuing par
ties continue 10 bring the manglcd re-
mans OF the Inflated miners to the sur
face. Most OF the victims OF tho explosion
were married and were men OF families.
The lamentations of their bercav~d rcla-
tivcs, who are crowded about the fatal
spot, are piiful In tho extreme.

attended the funeral OF the unfortunstes
who were buried today.

GLASGOW, Jan. 5.-rhe Caledonian
Railway Company made . third attempt
to evict their striking employees from their
tenement houses at Motherwell this after
noon. An immense crowd had gathered
In anticipation OF the movement and stone
throwing was vt once begun. The sheriff
read the riot act, aud as the crowd did not
disperse the military and police charged
md desperate conflict ensued, In which
many Of the rioters were injured by blows
from the batons Of the officers. Six of the
| injured were removed to tho hospitals In
serious condition.
The crowd was finally driven from their
first position, but were only reused TO
greater fury by their severe experience
and an attack was at once IN ade upon the
station Of the railway company. The
signal boxes were completely wrecke d,
and trains arriving were Obliged to rush
through without stopping, In order to
avoid injury To the passengers from
bombardment with stones.
Tho military were again called upon to

The evictiOns then were allowed to pro-

barricaded, and the officers had TO batter
the walls down in gaining admission. The
inmates were forcibly elected in all cases

military was summoned To prevent furth-
disturbance there. 1t is feared that the
sympathy Of the miners for the strikers
has introduced I'M element OF turbulence
into the hitherto orderly conduct OF the
strike.
AT a mass-meeting OF strikers tonight
the provost and all responsible for the
evictions were bitterly denounced. John
Burns delivered a speech in which he
promised the strikers the support OF tho
London unions. He predic ed an early
victory for the strikers. The Birmingham
Trades Council has resolved to support

WILL TEST THE LAW.
Attempt Of coIoradoans to Compel
the Government to Coin
Their Silver.

On the Srd Judge Harley B. Morse
and George G, Merrick, of Denver, called
at the United States mint In Philadelphia
with brick Of silver weighing 6l4.6
ounces fine and presented 1t to tho weigh
ing clork and demanded that it DO coined
into money for them. Upon their demand
being refused they waited upon Colonel
Bosbybell, superintendent Of tho mint,
and made the same demand verbally Of
him. Colonel Bosbybell refused to accept
the brick for private coinage, and Messrs.
Morse and Merrick then presented him
with tho formal demand in writing.
After presenting the demand Mr.. Mer-
rick asked Colonel Bosbybel to give them
a certificate or letter certifying that he
and Judge Morse had offered their silver
for coinage and that 1t had been refused
by him, so that they would be saved the
trouble Of proving that fact in court,
where they proposed to test tho right OF
the government to refuse the bullion.
In compliance with their request Colonel
Bosbybell gave then a letter acknowledge
ing the offer and refusing to accept 1t.
After receiving Colonel Bosby BELLS
written refusal to receive the bullion the
two gentlemen wrapped up their brick In

THE INDIAN WAR.
Gravity of the Situation. and Pros
pect Of More BIoodshsd.

Il
The recent battle as feared has re-
suited in the detection Of many friendly
Indians and the situation about Pine
Ridge Is very grave. A dispatch from
that point, dated the 3lst ult., says.
"Chief Two Strike aud Q large body Ct
followers broke away from the agency
during the day and started for tho Bad
Lands or point near Rosebud agency. 1t
Is not definitely known which. Word has
been sent to the commander of the troops
ut Rosebud to try and intercept the band.
Other OBJECTIONS are momeutarily OK
pected, SO much so that one well up in
authority says that by morning he does
not expect to see single hostile remain
Ing at Pine Ridge. That includes now
nearly every able bodied Indian except
tho police. There are few Cheyennes
and scouts. Red Cloud and all the lesser
chiefs except American Horse have Joined
their brethren for the last great fight
The storm still RACES and gives every sd-
vantage to the Indians either for ngh ting
or escaping to some safe retreat. Tho end
Is not vet"
1t transpires that the large camp Of
'riendly Indians located south Of the
agency is made up almost entirely Of old
men, squaws and children. The question
is, what has become of the supposedly
large number Of friendly bucks located
here until yesterday. A half-breod
courier who was through the camp re-
ports that nearly every able bodied Indian
In this friendly outfit had quietly slipped
away after dark and Joined the hostile
forces at Pine Ridge These bucks are
armed and have considerable ammunition,
but they have no rations, and must depend
on forage for subsistence.
The troops ut the agency tonight were
part of the Second Infantry, four troops
OF the Ninth Cavalry, eight troops Of the
Seventh Cavalry and Capron's battery of
light artillery. In the field about Pine
Ridge were three companies Of the First
lnfantry, u part Of the Ninth regiment OF
cavalry and part Of the Second Infantry,
to the north and within striking distance
was part OF the Eighth Cavalry and the
whole of the Sixth Cavalry.

To IMPOSE upon the members Of the
militia regiments the burden OF meet
ing expenditures attaching to military
servants of our civic institutions is un-
just parsimonious and downrightly
dishonest Either the state sodiery
should be abolished or it should be
suitably supported by the state. This
duty is the more imperative because
the men belonging to the regiments
are invariably self-supporters engaged
in employments which do not yield
more than enough for their duties to
themselves and their families.
