BoSToN. Sept. 2l.-In the Potter trial
when the court came in after recess Judge
Putnam read from the stenograhc report of
the case extracts from the testimony of
Cashier Work, by which it was attempted
by the district attorney to show that Potter
had authorized the Justification of the re
ports of the bank to the clearing house
The court then said that the evidence so
far produced in the case failed to show any
connection between Potter and the paying
teller who made up the reports to the clear
ing house. District Attorney Hoar said
1T is the Judgment of the United States
that within the limits of the ruling laid
down by your honor it is impossible for the
government to connect the accused with this
case.
Judge Putnam said: The counsel for the
government have shown great ability, in
genuity and persistence in trying this case
and have done everything that it was posi-
bile 10 do to secure conviction. 1t may he
that the government could 20 to the jury on
the testimony that has been presented this
morning.
The district attorney declined going on
with the case and asked the jury if they suf-
iiciently understood the status of the case to
agree upon verdict as directed.
The foreman Signitied that they did and
the court put the usual question as TO what
their verdict was, and the foreman said:
"Not guilty"

FIVE MEN KILLED.
A TERRIFIC EXPLOSION OF GAS IN
THE LANCE COLLlERY.
Five More Seriously Injured-A Man En-
ters the Gas with "A Naked Lamp and
Fearful Destruction of Life and Property
tke Result -IIeartrending Scenes at the
Rescue.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Sept. 2l.-By an ex-
plosion of gas in the Lance colliery. No. IL
of the Iehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal com
pany at Plymouth this afternoon. five men
were instantly killed and five others serious
" injured The accident was caused by
Joshua Golightly, who entered body of gas
with his naked lamp. The explosion
which followed was terrific. Flames swept
from one end of the gangway to the
other. carrying death or injury to every
living being in their path Props came
tumbling down. cars were lifted off the
road and dashed with fearful force against
the pillars; loose coal was caught up and
sent whirling through the chambers only to
be ground into power by its contact with
the rocky walls
The men were working 1000 feet from
the spot where Golghtly's lamp set off the
gas. but owing to the unusually gaseous con
dition of the mine, the flames spread so rap
idly that there was no escape.
Goightly was burned fearfully, his flesh
being literally cooked The other victims
were not burned. but were killed 10y flying
debris. Golighty was thoroughly familiar
with the mine and why he entered the gang
way with naked lamp is a mystery.
Soon after the explosion thousand people
had gathered at the mouth of the shaft.
The greatest excitement prevailed
among the friends of the doomed
men. A large rescuing party was
at once organized and led by Superin-
tendent Morgan dropped down into the shaft
to bring up the victims. After a short alb
sence the rescucrs reappeared bearing the
hlackened bodies. Women and chill
dren shrieked in an agony of grief
and threw themselves upon the bodies
of their dead as they We're carried by while
strong men were affected to tears. The
dead and injured were taken to their homes
where the company provide every means tol
the comfort of the latter, all of whom are
expected to recover.
The damage to the line is not extensive
and work will be resumed tomorrow

and placed him in the station under heavy
guard

the neighborhood pending the arrival of
medical assistance.
After the freight train had backed to its
siding to await the passing of the express,
Brakeman Thompson's movements were not

EMPEROR AND BISMARCK.
Hope That II Reconciliation May Yet b,
Effected.

BERLIN, Sept. 24,-The arrival of Count
Herbert Bismarck and Count Rantau, his
brother in law. in Kissingen yesterday, is
not expected to help much in bringing the
emperor and Prince Bismarck together.
Many hope, however that stronger influences
will prevail and that the reconciliation will
soon be accomplished
Emperor Franz Joseph and the King of
Saxony have sent to Kissingen sympathetic
inquiries after the ex-chancellors health and
have suggested the desirablity the prince
make the next advances, The grand Duke
of Baden and the King of Wurtemburg are
working with energy to the same end. Still
Bismarck holds back, seeming reluctant to
answer the cmperor's advances before ex-
torting such homage as no sovereign has
ever paid a subject.
kilograms from Kissengen report him as
irritated and suspicious. He is said to re
gard the attention now bestowed ON him by
crowned heads as too ostentatlous. They
are suggestive he thinks. of plan to ex-
tinguish him entirely as political factor.
He is recovering his strength quite rapidly
now and is sensitive about being treated as
an honored memory.
