ANGRY AT THE DECISION.
The Mechanics Institute Will Fight
MCQUEEN in the Supreme Court.

Mcqueen in the Supreme Court.
The trustees of the Mechanics Institute
are much incensed nj the verdict rendered
against them in Judge Hunts court yes
terday. 10 their way of thinking that
laborer like Mcqueen should. through his
own 'carelessness," fall and break a leg
and afterward obtain damages to the ex-
tent OF 5000 from his employers was too
much for them, and at a special meeting of
the board held last night a motion was
made 10 fight the case in tie Supreme
Court.
Jurors have no sympathy with corpo-
rations," quoth Oscar Lewis. They say
10 each other, Damages won't hurt these
people and will do the poor fellow whale
lot of good Accordingly we get verdict
against US. I'm in favor. now that we're
already in for some expense, of fighting the
case To the bitter end
Trustee NJ cDonald mildly suggested that
he had from the first argued in favor OF
compromising the case for $1,000. But
the proposal was rejected" said Mcdonald.

hans we may yet get him to accept S1000."

Trustee Manson read the architects re-
port on the proposed remodeling of the

modelling vas estimated at $4,000, but, as
Mr. Lewis sagely remarked, ''in these

NEW RIG FOR SHIPS.
Captain A. V. Smith Has a New
Idea,

Captain A. V. Smith of this city has
new scheme for rigging ships.
Although the captains pro Osed rigging
is not so complicated as that of vessel of
the present service, still it will require
good deal OF study On the part of a seaman
before he would get used to the changes
which the captain contemplates making.
The rigging as planned takes all the
beauty out of ships tall spars and maze
OF graceful lines, and presents the appear
ance of the little wooden vessels which
are represented by the average schoolboy
by means OF jackknife and few pieces
of wood.
The system of manning a vessel as set
forth in Captain Smiths circular is too
lengthy to be published in its complete
form, and its descriptions are too compli-
Gated TO he made clear in few words.
Ii Is understood, however, that only one
half as many men VIII be required TO man
4 vessel rigged after the new idea. The
danger OF losing men aloft is reduced 10 a
minimum, and the setting uf sails is rem
dered very simple.
Sea captains are a little adverse to
adapting new ideas. and many Of them
pronounce Captain Smiths invention as
simply zone Of those new-fangled notions
which would never sail a ship" while
others. more practical. say they consider
the new style rigging worthy Of considera-

hour last evening while eight men were at
work at Nanticoke in No. gangway OF
No. 0 slope of the Susquehanna Coal com
pany, about three quarters Of mile from
the bottom of the shaft, terrific explos-
ion of gas took place which hurled the
victims off their feet and scattered them
In all directions, killing four men and
boy instantly, and seriously but not fatally
injuring three more.
The dead are Abram Walker, miner,
married, leaves five children; Frank Bean
ick, IA years of age, door boy, died after
reaching home; John Smith, miner, mar
--sssd, leaves three children, William Shortz,
laborer, burned to crisp; Polander,
whose name could not be learned, nor
could his body be recognized.
The injured are: John Gwent, horribly
burned about the head and arms, in a
serious condition; two Polanders, names
unknown, both badly burned on hands and
face.
The news of the explosion spread over
the town like wildfre, and in short time
thousands of miners, their wives and chill
dren, and other persons floeked to the
mouth of the fatal shaft.
The damage to the slope will be con-
siderable, the timber work was blown
down and scattered about in many places,
and the gas set fire to the coal. At mid
night the rescuing party who brought the
unfortunates to the surface report that
they had subdued the flames. Diligent
search was made and no one was left in

NEW FINANCIAL POLICY.



WASHINGTON, june 23.--The president
and Secretary Carlisle feeling confident Of
the repeal Of the Sherman silver purchase
law, are now considering what other finan-
cial legislation should be enacted in con-
nection with or following the repeal. They
have been advised by most OF the leaders
of tpe house and the senate that an income
tax law cannot be passed
While members representing rural dis
tricts generally favor an income tax, they
are very much divided as to just how it
should be imposed. In the first place they
differ as to how the amount should be ex-
empted, and they differ more or less as to
all the details.
Members representing city and COM
mercial constituencies will oppose an IN
come tax almost to n man, and Will easily
defeat the divided and distracted majority,
even conceding that majority would
favor the tax. With regard to the repeal
Of the tax on state banks, the president
aud Secretary Carlisle are reticent. They
are not communicating opinions save to a
few party leaders.
At all events the president and his f1nan-
cial minister are feeling very easy on the
financial question. They believe that they
will be able to influence congress to adopt
the policy proposed by the administration.
