CONGRESSMAN CUMMINGS'S COMMITTEE
THE SPECIAL TREASURY AGENTS SERVICE TO
BE INVESTIGATED.


TILE SPECIAL TREASURY AGENTS SERVICE TO
BE INVESTIGATED.
The news that Amos j. Cummings had introduced
n resolution in Congress calling for the appointment
Of committee OF five to investigate the administration
OF the collection OF revenues at this port caused much
comment yesterday at the Custom House and among
importers. Tie Introduction OF this resolution was
brought about by the agitation begun by the merchants
OF this city against the special Treasury agents anu
can be considered In 10 sense political act ke-
publican merchants and Democratic merchants alike
have for long time been arrayed against the Treas
ury agents. while on the other hand they have been
much better satisfied with the administrations OF Col
lcctor Hendricks and his predecessor than tcy were
with those OF Collector Magone or Collector iicddeh.
Especially since Marvellc W. cooper has been Ap-
pra,er Of the Port have the special agents made them
selves offensive TO the merchants. Mr. Cooper Is gen
orally well liked by those who have dealings with MS
department. and the attacks which special agents nave
made on him. and their attempts to secure his removal
have met the determined opposition of the merchants
The Investigation made by the Hepburn Committee last
spring ended without result through their efforts ana
protests. More recently the special agents nave Oech
active in way that especially incenscd the merchants
and charges which brought against several iaf1e
importers including James McCreery Co'

by the Chamber Of Commerce calling for an invesusa
tion by Congress- A. X. Tinge, chief OF the bureau

The absence OF politics from the movement Is SHOWN
BY the fact that j. s. ClarlSson, chairman OF the ke
publican National Committee, has personally asked
both President Harrison and secretary Foster to call
on Mr. I1nge for his resignation.
Collector Hendricks, when asked about tine pro
posed investigation yesterday. said that ne wls
nothing TO conceal and was sure that every act
OF his would bear tho fullest investigation. Charles

LONDON Jan. s.-The dynamite plotters, hav-
ing, il 10 said, connections in the United States
and on the continent, who were arrested last
night at walsall, near Birmingham. were for
mally charged before magistrate this morn
ing, and were remanded in order to enable the

The Scotland Yard detectives have been
working for months, on clues furnished them
from the United States, trying to unravel An
extensive anarchist conspiracy which was said
to exist in England.
At Walsall Inspector Melville had a so-called
socialist club under supervision and he be-
came convinced that some of its members we're
engaged in the manufacture of dynamite bombs.
Deaken, well-known anarchist, was found to
be in close touch with the club at Walsall, and
yesterday he was secretly arrested, upon ar
rival in London, and last night Inspector
Melville and o force Of police raided the So
cialist club at Walsall and arrested Victor
Gales, described rs a clerk; Frederick Charles,

the wife Of Gales. They were all charged with
conspiring with Deaken to manufacture dyna-
mite bombs for the purpose of outrage. The
woman was released and il is said that she las
confessed. The men protest innocence.
The bombs were reported to have been in
tended for use in extortirg money from rich
men and for the use of anarchists DESTROYS Of

Terribly Fatal Explosion at Krebs, Near
McA1lster, L. 7.
KANSAS CRY, Jan. 8.-A special to the Star
from McAllister, l. T.. says: A most appalling
calamity occurred here last night. There was
an explosion In n mine and as q result over two
hundred men lie dead and about forty are
fatally hurt and as many more badly burned
At $40 pm. mine No. II. owned by the Usage
Coal and Mining Company at Krebs. four and
half miles east OF here, exploded. At the
time $50 men were in the shaft, most of whom
were waiting for the cage to take them out,
and the foot of tho Shaft is one mass OF dead
bodies. Eighty-five men came out by an old
entry and forty-two were saved by the shaft
most of whom are more or less burned or
bruised and half will probably die. This
leaves about 223 men yet III the mine and in all
probability 200 are dead.
At TAO a. m. ten dead men were brought out
and only one could be recognized, the remains
being mutiated. One man escaped from
the shaft, 500 feet deep by working from
bracket to bracket and was saved. Thousands
Of anxious wives and mothers are eagerly
watching each cage as it comes to the surface
hoping to see their loved ones, only to turn
away disappointed.
The explosion was caused by firing a shot
when gas was in the mine. At this time it is
impossible to learn the number Of dead and
LATER.-News from the disaster is coming in
very slowly. 1t is learned that at the time OF
the explosion nearly two hundred and fifty
men were in the shaft. Most of them had
stopped work for the day and were waiting
their turn to ride out of the cages and had con-
gregated near the bottom of the shaft, and that
locality is completely janmed with dead bodies.
The mouth of the pit is surrounded by a
crowd of men, women and children, nearly all
Of whom have relatives in the mine. Their grief
is pitiful, and their prayers and cries are agon-
| izing they beseech the rescuing party
to increase their efforts to save their loved
ones. OF the eighty five men who reached
! safety by means OF the cid tunnel over half of
them received injuries more or less severe and
many OF them are SO badly injured by shock
and bruises that it is feared they will not re-
cover.
Owing to the great excitement at the scene
of the disaster and the distance from any tel
egraph office, it is impossible ut present to
get list of the dead and injured.
ANOTHER FATAL EXPLOSION.
SHAMoKIN. Pa, Jan. 8.-Paul Gruerzc and
Phillip Deserts were instantly killed this morn
ing by an explosion of gas while at work in the
Nelson colliery. Ten other miners were
slightly injured.
