hole has already reached the depth Of
i,i00 feet, within 800 feet Of the deepest
well In the world. In this distance n
dozen Of thick veins Of coal have been
passed. oil and gas both struck. but not
IN paying quantities. and gold quartz,
iron and many other minerals found.
The hole Ia eight inches Ia diameter and
the largest In diameter Of any deep well

CLEVELAND, Oct. 2s.-Just at dusk
last evening the works of the United
States Mine Supply company, on Wilson
aveDze, in this city, exploded with a
deep detonation and conclusion that
shook up the most fashionable residence
portion of the city. There was series
of explosions that entirely demolished
the building in which the works were
located and scattered timbers and bricks
In all directions. When the first engine
reached the scene the firemen were COM
PEELED, on account of the smoke and fly
ing missiles, to crawl with their hose
toward the building Twelve people
were employed in making fuses and
bombsout of dynamite gun cotton, nitro
.glycerine and giant powder. When the
first explosion occurred bystanders said
the roof appeared to be lifted from the
building.
The report was followed by piercing
1hiieks from within the structure. At
}he second explosion the walls collapsed
Dd there was silence, Three people
were killed outright and four injured,
one seriously. The killed are: John
Fink, aged IL; Alfred Schaffer, aged II,
and NJ Paul Pfannlsuche, nephew of the

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 27.--Judge
Taylor, Of the Superior Court, rendered
his decision in the case at issue between
The state board of tax commissioners
and the Indiana bankers, in which the
lax board attempted TO compel the banks
10 furnish list of depositors and the
amount to the credit Of each 'depositor
April 1. The decision is in favor Of
the bankers on every point, it being held
that the statute does not confer inquiso-
torial powers; that tho tax board is not
court and therefore cannot fine or COM
init to prison; that the constitution pro-
tects the citizens against unreasonable
search and seizure and that the functions
Of the tax board coniine it 10 the assess
ment of railroad and telephone property,
etc, and to equalizing assessments as
between counties. The case will be ap-
pealed to the supreme court.

Slow Progress in the McCamant-

HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct. 2s.-The pro-

Grated into innumerable political discus
sions, and nothing of practical nature
was done. The Republicans charged the
Democrats and the attorney general
with purpose to make political capital
out of the inquiry. The order of bust
ness having been changed by authorizing
counsel to proceed with the arguments
in the Boyer case, the attorney general
asked that he be permitted to re-exam.

denied.
In answer to a question by Senator
Robinson as to his knowledge of the
states balances in the Keystone bank

Cry OF MEXICO, Oct. 2S.-There is a
well founded rumor on the streets that
the duty on corn will be removed by the
Mexican government, owing to the
shortness of crops and the famine pre-
vailing in several states of the republic.
Reports from the flooded districts of
Chipas are heartrending 1t is stated
that hundreds of people are on the verge
of starvation. The state of Guanajauta,
by special decree of Governor Gonzales,
has prohibited the export of corn from
the state, and other governors will soon
follow his example.

FIGHTING IRISH FACTIONS
Lively Row Between ParneIlites and
McCarthyites in Cork.

MeCarthyftes in Cork.
Cork, Oct. 2S.-The fact that the DO
lice and military were thoroughly pre-
pared for a riot yesterday alone pre-
vented the city from becoming scene
of slaughter. After the convention a
large body of police closed about Dillon
and O'Brien to escort them to their ho-
tel. For some distance the procession
passed along without serious demonstra-
ton, the crowds on the streets, however,
growing every moment more excited.
The McCarthyites, including a number
of priests, followed Dillon and O'Brien.
Every now and then Parnellite in the
crowd would howl and sling a shillelah
around his head and make dash for the
McCarthyites. The police would then
charge and restore order for the moment.
AT length the Parnellites grew uncon-
trollable, and yells of "murderers."
'sEngland's hckspittles" and other epi-
thets saluted the McCarthyites. The
latter knew that they would soon be at
tucked and came to halt, turning on
their assailants. Missiles of all kinds
flew through the air, and the cries of
defiance became louder and louder. The
blood flowing from injured heads and
the fierce energy of the combatants, and
the ebb and flow Of the tide of battle, as
the advantage veered to either side, gave
a realistic picture resembling somewhat
the Communist risings in Paris.
The mounted constabulary was hur-
riedly formed in order for charge. The
order was given to cut right between the
two parties, where the police would re-
ceive the volleys from both. Not con-
stable flinched. They formed as per-
fectly as on parade, and started on the
gallop at the word of command. The
order was to strike only with the flats of
their sabres, and there is no reason to
believe that, under great provocation, it
was disobeyed. AS the corstables spur
red forward the volleys of missiles grew
thicker, for each side was sure thE,at if
they missed each other they wo,dR at
least hit policeman. The police were
| persistent, however, and at length sue
ceeded in breaking up the riot, this re-
suit being largely due to the fact that
| the rioters themselves were appalled, at
the number of the wounded Many of
the latter were taken to their homes,
and others to the hospitals. Whether
any cases have proven fatal is not yet
known,

STOCKTON, Cal, Oct. 2s.-Palo Alto
beat his record yesterday in beautiful
exhibition, doing the mile in 2.1O. He
made the circuit without a skip and
with very little urging. The quarters
We're made in 80, 81 l-2, 33 and 33 1-2.
A large number of prominent horsemen
were present and it was the unanimous
opinion that Palo Alto will heat the
worlds stallion record OF 2.09 Ia, held
by Allerton. United States Senator
Stanford has ordered his trainers to pre-
pare the horse for such trial to take
place within few days.
