 Four Bodies of . Mine Disaster
 Unearthed-The Remains Beyond
 Identlncation-Only Fragmentary
 Portions Found.
 WnKEsBARKE, Pa., Dec. .31.-A frightful high & Wilkesbarre Coal company at South Wilkesbarre on March 8. On that date an explosion set fire to the mine, in which were imprisoned eight men. Repeated and desperate efforts were made to rescue the unfortunate men and their fate was for weeks source of painful suspense to the entire country The flames ravaged the mines and destroyed the workings to such an extent that it is only now that the re- pairing force are able to penetrate to where the lost miners Perished. Superintendents Scott and Lowan came out of the No. 8 shafta ct noon to-day and to reporter they said that two of the bodies had been brought to the surface and two more had been found. As yet there is no trace of the others, but they are thought to be near by and may be recovered at any time.
 The relatives of the eight unfortunate men, whose bodies have lain for nearly ten months in the mine, will be denied the sad privilege of giving them Christian burial. Only fragmentary portions have been re- covered and it will be extremely difficult to identify the remains with any degree of certainty. Thus far four bodies have been taken out Of these the remains of Frank Gull have been identified mainly by means of the iron foot attached to one leg, and portion of garment attached to another body leads to the belief that the remains are those of James O'Donne1l The other two bodies may be those of Jamieson and Thomas O'Donnell. The workmen are bending every effort to remove the debris and may discover the remainder of the party soon. The bodies of the four victims were found just at the juncture of the gangway which would have admitted of es- cape, and here the remains of the mules were also found, which is of itself evidence that the men were possibly overtaken by the fatal after-damp.

GENERAL SPINNER DEAD.

Ex-Treasurer of the United States
 An Ex-Congress man-EHis Military
 Career-Hfs Autograph Attached to
 Many Greenbacks.
 JACKSON, Fla, Dec. 31.-General F. E. Spinner, ex-treasurer of the United States. died at S:30 this evening. General Spinner was born in German Flats, now Mohawk, N. Y., in 1902. He engaged in trade in Herkimer, N. Y, in 1894, and five years later became deputy sheriff of the county. He was active in the militia organization, and in 1884 had reached the grade of major general. Subsequently he became l sheriff, and later was a commissioner for 1 building the state asylum at Utica. He held various local offices, was auditor and l deputy naval officer in the naval office at ! New York in 1845-49, and in 1854 was ! elected to congress as an anti-slavery dem ocrat. He served on the committee on | privileges and elections on a special com \ mittee to investigate the assault made by Preston Brooks on Charles Sumner, and on a conference committee of both houses on the army appropriation bill, which the senate had rejected on account of clause it contained that forbade the use of the military against Kansas settlers. General | Spinner was an active republican from the formation of the party, and was twice re- elected to congress. In the Lincoln ad- ministration Secretary Chase selected Gen. eral Spinner for the office of treasurer of the United States, which office he held from March 16, 1861, till June 30, 1875
 When during the war many of-the clerks
 joined the army General Spinner suggested
 to MT. Chase the advisability of employing
 women in the government offices and car
 ried into effect this innovation, though mol
 without much opposition. He signed the
 different series of paper money issued in {
 singular handwriting, which he cultivated
 in order to try to prevent counterfeiting
 When he resigned his office the money il
 the treasury was counted and when the re
 suit showed very small discrepancy many
 days were spent in recounting and e1amin ing the books of accounts until finally tn,
 mistake was discovered. On retiring iron
 the office he went south for the benefit O
 his health and for some years lived in cam] at Pablo Beach, Fla.
