BRUSSELS, March 1l.-An accident oc-
CURED to- day in colliery near Charleroi
which it is feared will result in great loss
of life. Three hundred miners were en-
ployed in cool pit when there was a ter
rife explosion Of fire damp. The fate of
the imprisoned workmen is unknown.
Efforts are being made to rescue any
who may have survived the explo-
sion. The explosion was at the
Annderluis colliery, in which 3U0
men were at work, only three
of these thus far have reached the mouth
OF the pit in saftey. The meu, if any, who
survived the shock of the explosion, are
apt to meet their death from choke damp,
as with IKE destruction of the vent lator it
is impossible 10 rid the mine of gases A
large force of volunteers are al work clear
ing the mouth of the mine of debris in
order TO reach the imprisoned miners.
A large number of miners that are mar
Tied and their families and friends are at
the pit mouth frantic with grief.
Later particulars regarding the explo-
sion show it occurred in galley 400 feet
below the surface, where go men were
working. OF this number, forty escaped
by means of the second shaft, and sixteen
others were rescued in fatally injured
condition. Fears of mine men in the mine
are that 200 of them have been killed

and after long interval of weary suspense
brought to the surface thirty or forty un.

A great street of flames must have sho

lashes and hair are all singed off, A party
again descended and has not been heard
from since.
Later.-The crowds increased as the da,
wore or. The rescuers began to come u
the surface. few at time, bearing one o.
two menRled forms. The scenes usually
incident to such a disaster were re-enactec
with, If possible, more than the usual in
tensity. The work Of the rescuers il
greatly retarded by the noxious gases still
remaining il the mine. There is hardly
shadow OF hope that any OF the men VIII
were in the mine at the time of the ex
plosion, are now alive.

sealers said to Have Started for Behring Sea

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Two British
vessels, seized in Behring sea last year for
violation of the modus vivendi, are said to
be among the vessels that have already
started for the sealing grounds. These
vessels are the Otto and E. B. Marvin So
far as known, the British government has
not even instituted proceedings against
them. On the other hand the La Nymfa
and Ethel two American vessels seized for
the same offense, were libelled and con-
demned by the United Strtes courts. To-
day there is considerable adverse comment
in official circles regarding the radically
different action of the two governments in
matter in which at the time they were
supposed to be in full accord.
The House committee on territories has
finished the consideration of Delegate JOS
eph's bill to enable the people of New
Mexico to form a state government, and
begun consideration of the bill providing
for the admission of Arizona as state.

made one Of which grants 100000 acres of
land for reservoir purposes and 700, 00O

A SCENE IN COURT
Defendant Rapp Calls Attorney
Terrill a Liar.
The WOuld-be COmbatants Are Separated
Rapp Fined for Contempt-A Verdict
Rendered Against Him.

PoCATELLo, Ida, March 11.-[Special
telegram to The HERALD. Sensational
developments in the case of the State VS..
Mrs. Eva Lands and V. Rapp, for fraudu-
lent assignment OF property, were heard in
Justice Fishers court to-day before jury.
The defendants, were. according to Terrill,
the counsel for the prosecution, in relations
altogether friendly to say the least. Mrs.
Lands has not been living with her hus-
band, it is understood, for sometime, and
that she has had Rapp at work on the
papers for complaint for divorce proceed
ings. Her husband was in the court
room, but when called upon to testify by
the prosecution be was dismissed on the
claim of the defense that husband could
not testify against wife, and in testifying
against one of the defendants he would be
testifying against both.
Terrill, for the prosecution, was very
pc sistent in his desire that Lands testify,
and in the course OF his argument spoke OF
the crime Rapp committed. Rapp jumped
to his feet, and, energeticaly banging the
table with his fist, denied he committed
any crime. He said any man who said he
had was liar.
Terrill attempted to proceed, using the
same expression, when RaOp again spranG
to his feet, and exclaimed: "You lie

the offense Is a mlsdemeanor and pun
Ishable as such. The case revived the OLE
argument regarding the legality of Justic

members in this city that two of the Pre-
fession should allow their anger to maste
their dignity.

uneasiness About the Foot and Mouth Disease.


WASHINGTON, March 11.-Uneaslness is
felt in the agricultural department on ac-
count of the serious outbreak of the foot
and mouth disease in Great Britain. The
disease does not exist here now, but as
many sheep are imported from Great
Britain. it is feared it will be introduced
by them in spite of the quarantine. If the
disease continues to prevail in Great Brit
ain, probably it will be necessary for the
government to entirely prohibit the intro
Guction of cattle, sheep, goats and swine
until the outbreak is suppressed.

New YoRK. Aug. 26.-The effect Of the de-
cision Of Chancellor McGin upon the stock
market was principally to restrict trading in
everything except Reading and the industrials,
which are subject to manipulation. Only Read
ing and sugar displayed any unusual anima-
ton, and while the opening was made at lower
hgures and Reading was of N per cent at SIX
and Manhattan per cent at 1874, there was an
immediate rally, which, while less marked in
Reading than anything else, in New England
reached substantial proportions before the
movement was checked. Reading rallied q
fraction only, but New England rosc from 81 Il
to - and Manhattan from 1874 to 1851. Sugar
was pressed down from lax to 1l25<, but re-
covered q portion, while general electric, after
dropping from 116A to 115{, rose to III.

LONDON, Aug. ga meeting has been sum-
moned of the shareholders in the company Of
Salt Il Sons. owners Of the famous factories at
Saltaire, on the river Aire. about three miles
from Bradford. Saltaire is known as the model
village the late Sir Titus Salt having established
there homes for his operatives, with surround
ings according to most improved and progress
sive plans. The business of the company has
Of late become SO depressed that it is seriously
proposed to wind 1t up. The company is lin
tied one and was formed in 1881, with capital
Of 81. 25O, 900, to conduct the business of the
late Sir Titus Salt. The late losses of the COM
pany ia attributed to the Mckinley bill,
which has deprived the company of a
considerable market in America. The assets Of
the concern are valued at upward Of f25O,00O
sterling beyond liabilities. The trade liabilities
are about f2OO, 900. The firm formerly manu-
featured altogether alpacas and worsted. but of
recent years has chiefly manufactured plush
goods. Since the Mckinley tariff went into
operation the business has been reduced to a
tenth of its former magnitude. The concern
once employed 40, 900 operatives, and visitors
from all parts of the world were pointed with
pride to the town of Sir Titus Salt. The news
of the condition Of the company has caused
wide sensation in London trade circles.
