The elevator was a large open con-
cern, and as it fell, three workmen
who were standing under it were
caught and crushed beneath the
weight and instantly killed. Their
names are: Henry Keiser, foreman
of the sheet-iron department; Frank

The Senate Passes n Bill to Erect rub.
lic Building In All Towns Where Postal
RECEIPTS tor Three Ysars Have Exceeded
$4,000.
WASHINGTON, March 15.--The senate
on Monday resumed consideration OF
the post Office building bill, which was
passed by vote of "a yeas, 81 nays.
BY It's provisions the postmaster gener-
nj is from time to time to cause to be
constructed buildings in accordance
with such general designs and plans for
the accommodation, in towns and cities
having no federal building, of all pres
idential post offices the gross receipts
of which for three years preceding
shall have exceeded the sum
of $4,000 and have not exceeded
100000; such buildings to be fairly
distributed among the several states
and territories, the places to be desig-
mated from time to time by the post
master general, the secretary of the
treasury and the secretary of tho in
terror, but no buildings are to be con-
tractcd for or erected in excess of the
amounts which may be from time to
time appropriated for such purposes by
congress
The material to be used in the con-
struction of any such building is to be
determined by the postmaster general.
The cost of such building and site is
not to exceed $40 900 at any place
where the gross receipts for each of
the three preceding years shall not
have exceeded $4,000, and at no other
place shall it exceed sum equal to
the aggregate of the postal receipts
therein during the three years preced-
ing; nor shall it exceed $4,000 in all.
| Under the provisions of the bill
about ], 800 towns would be entitled TO
post Office buildings and an ultimate
appropriation of $25, 900, 900 would be re-
| quired. 1t has been shown in the de.
bate that it would be cheaper for the
government to make this investment
outright than to pay the rents it now

BURIED UNDER DIFFICULTIES.

Hardships Suffered by Senators, Repro
ssentatives and Others who Attended
the Funeral of the Late Congressman
Kendall, of Kentucky.
WASHINGTON. March 15.--The con-
gressional funeral of tho late Repre-
sentative Kendall of Kentucky, from
which the committee has just streturned,
resulted in an extraordinary tale of
suffering and exposure. The commit
tee appointed to escort the body con-
sisted of Senators Warren and Pasco
and Representatives John b. Fellows,
of New York, Belknap, Paynter, Gil
lespie and Long.
The funeral party arrived at Moore
head, KY. which was the last railroad
station on their route. Their final des-
tination was 80 miles away, between
Moorehead and Liberty. There are
no roads traversing the mountains,
nor are there any bridges crossing the
innumerable rivers and streams. The
weather was intensely cold and the
streams were swollen. ...
Before the hearse and the wagons
containing the committee had fairly
started Representative Fellows re-
turned to Moorehead A few miles
farther on Senator Warren, of
| Wyoming, succumbed to cold and ex-
haustion and was left in a mountain
eer's hut to await the party's return.
One river, the Yokum, crossed the path
of the party forty-two times. Each time
| it was necessary to ford the icy
stream and there was danger at times
that the coffin would be washed away.
The members of the party during these
eighty-four fords which it was neces-
sary to make going and returning were
frequently up to their waists in the
chilly water. The provisions were
frozen and the party had nothing tc
eat for day. When going down hill
it was necessary to tie a rope around
the hearse to keep it from plungine
down the steep declivities, and this
rope was trailed to the rear so tina,
the members of the party might take
it in hand and steady the plunging
hearse. When the destination was
finally reached late the following
evening the hcarse was entirely
wrecked and the coffin rested upor
the aXle-trces. The coffin itself wa.
so badly broken that the corpse wa.
| exposed.

FAILURE AND SUICIDE.
Jacob Boehni, of Denver. Takes u Dose OF

Jacob Boehn,, OF Denver, Takes u Dose of
Pois ,n-Heavy ForGeries Discovered.
DENVER, Col, March ia sensa-
tional failure and suicide occurred here
Monday. About noon attachments
aggregating $751; were served on
the wholesale liquor firm of Jacob
Boehm & Co., of this city, whose
liabilities, it is thought, will foot
up to Sl5O,0OO, there being many
other attachmennts not yet served.
Some of the creditors are eastern busi-
ness men, although it is impossible at
present to learn their names. When
the attachments were served and
the sheriff took possession Jacob
Boehm immediately went to his room
and took dose of poison. He
was found several hours afterward
dead in bed. 1t transpires that Boehm
is for:er and had forged numerous
warehouse certificates and obtained
goods ON their account in Denver and
elsewhere. When the full details OF
his transactions are learned they will
probably show that his forgeries
amount to very high figure.

British Miners to the Number of Thou
sands Strike--Their Object Is to Force
an Advance in Wages-Niany Factories
Closed for Lack of Coal
LONDON, March 14.-The great coal
strike is on. The Durham miners did
not resume work, and the collieries of
Lancashire, Cheshire, Yorkshire,
North Wales and other districts are
idle. The miners of Scotland, South
Wales and Northumberland are work
ing quietly. b.-+A
In Durham the men to the number of
1000 are on strike against reduction
of wages, but in all other districts the
men have simply decided to take a
week or even three weeks holi-
day in order to restrict the out
put of coal, thus insuring prices
being kept up and the rate of
wages maintained if not advanced.
This movement on the part of the
miners has caused the greatest disturb
ance in the British labor world and
in the manufacturing centers that has
been known since the American civil
war, when SO many hundreds of thou
sands of the cotton operatives of Lam
boundless charity.
The most startling rumors are in cir
culation in this city. The fears of a
coal famine are widespread. The
stocks of coal in the great commercial
centers are not large and coll,ery own
ers have for some time declined to bind
themselves to execute orders. A great
many orders have been refused and
the price of coal has risen by leaps and
bounds until it has reached u figure
which it has not known since the
memorable strike of Northumberland
and Durham miners fifteen years

want of fuel. A number of others will
have to close the week following,
If the miners determine to carry their

Preparing to Hoard Gold.

WASHINGTON. March IL. - Reports
made to the comptroller of the cur
rency from the various money centers
of the United States, and particularly
in the east, indicate an intention upon
the part of the banking institutions of
the country to hoard gold in anticipa-
ton of the enactment OF a silver coin
age law. Many of the bank examiners
in their reports state that officials of
the banks do not hesitate to declare
that the passage of a silver bill by con-
gress will Immediately put gold ut a
premium of from 20 TO 20 per cent, and
they propose TO be prepared for it.

MINE HORROR IN BELGIUM.
Nearly 600 Men Killed by m Explosion
of Firedamp.


BRUSSELS, March IA frightful
mine disaster has occurred at Ander-
lcus, near Charleroi, in which many
lives were lost and over 200 miners
We're entombed. An explosion occurred
which destroyed the shatting and ven
tillation and made the work of rescue
extremely difficult.
The rescuers We're beaten back or
cowad by the stencil and the caving in
offdrth and timber, and for time it
was thought that the whole 200 miners
were lost. On renewing their
efforts, however, n few were
rescued and in the course of few
hours thirty were taken out alive, but
with the living men and women were
also many corpses The place at
which the explosions occurred is in
the second gallery, 500 yards below the
surface, and work at this depth is diff
cult and dangerous. Volunteers We're
let down three times in cage. When
half way down on the first trip the fur
ther caving of the shaft frightened
them and they returned. Five of the
ten men refused to go down again, as
the mine was flooding rapidly, they
said, and the loosened sides of the shaft
threatened to fall in and bury them.
The other five made the second trip
and reached the mouth of the second
gallery. They found few men who
were nearest the shaft when the first
explosion occurred. These miners had
run for their lives. but had been
caught at the entrance by falling tim.
bers. AL had broken bones and three
were so firmly lodged in the wreck that
the rescuing party dared not wait to ex-
tricate them.
The work was set back twice by
the caving of great blocks of earth and
stone from the sides of the wrecked
shaft, and after the third trip no vol
unteers for the work of rescue could
be found. The superintendent of the
mine twice went down 200 feet but re-
turned, saying that the chances would
be four to one against him if he went
lower
The total number of the victims is
unascQrtained The lower gallery has
not yet been reached by the rescuine
party. 1t is believed the number OF
killed will not be less than $50. Up tc
HAS p. IN. twenty-nine bodies had
been recovered from the mines. 1t is
believed that the lower gallery at the
depth of 500 meters is on fire, and that
none of the miners there have any
chance.to escape. Most of the bodies
were terribly mutilated.
