dynamite explosion that occurred in Rio
a few days prior to Septem Der 9th, when
his vessel sailed for Baltimore. A Brazil
ian soldier discovered near the English
cemetery subterranean magazine in
which the insurgents of the recent re-
belllon had concealed large quantity of
gunpowder, cartridges and dynamite
shells, which they evidently intended
using against the Government. The
soldier reported his find to the General
commanding, and rough cart drawn by
two mules was sent to the scene to re-
move the contents of the hidden magazine
to place of safety
n detachment of soldiers accompanied
the cart, and curious crowd of citizens
followed 1t to the little hole which had
been dug out to hold the explosives. A
Quantity of the shells had been placed in
the cart, and a pile of embers had been
passed out close behind it, when one of
the soldiers, while in the act of handling
shell, dropped it in among the others.
An explosion shook the earth. A sheet
OF fame shot upward, ana a cloud of
Whitish smoke hid everything from view.
The vessels in the harbor rocked at their

PITTsBURG, Oct. 22.-The news of the
closing up by the police of the Public
Stock and Produce Exchange, discre-
tionary pool concern, on Saturday,
brought great crowds of investors from
the country into town, showing how
widespread has been the operations OF
these concerns. The Delaneys, who op-
Grated the Public Stock and Produce Ex-
change, secured a release on bail for a
hearing this evening. AT their office this
morning they announced to their clients
that as their books were in the hands of
the police they would be unable to pay
out money or transact any business ex-
cept to receive notices OF the Withdrawal
OF deposits. All the discretionary pools
have a clause in their agreements by
which they can insist upon thirty days'
notice of withdrawal.
The Consolidated Stock and Produce
Company, another discretionary pool, did
not open its doors to-day. Hundreds of
investors who went TO the Office to with
draw their deposits were confronted with
a notice that the firm was temporarily
suspended. Washington Force, the man
ager, was not there. and no one appeared
to know his whereabouts. Warrants have
been issued for him. The other pools are
expected to suspend at any moment, and
the excitement among the investors is
running high. BY the books of the De-
laneys it is shown over half the investors
are women, most of them domestics and
Washerwomen, who fancied they mad
found an easy road to wealth.
William i. Delaney, Manager of the
Public Stock aud Grain Exchange, failed
to appear at the hearing this afternoon
and his bond for s., 800 was forfeited. c.
Ii. and Henry Delaney, brothers of the
manager, were held by the court on the
charge of conspiracy to deiraud. The
clerks and employees of the firm were
discharged.
II. p. Packer, of the Consolidated Stock
and Grain Exchange, was arrested this
afternoon on the same charge preferred
against the Delaneys. The run on the
institution continued all day.
Resolutions were adopted by the in
vestors condemuing the pools, calling
them gambling establishments, etc.
heartily commanding the newspapers
and police for exposing the concerns, and
piedging cooperation with the civil au-
thorties in ridding the community of the
parasites. The Finance Committee was

SAN Francisco, Oct. 22.-The steam
whaler Narwhal came into port this
morning, and landed the happiest lot of
whalers that has arrived here this season.
The NarwhaPs cruise in the Arctic re-
giOns extended over a period of thirty
two months. During that time she took
thirty-nine whales, which, it is estimated.
will net her owners nearly half million
dollars. The men in the forecastle, figur-
ing on their pro rata of the profits Of the
cruise, estimate that they have $1,000 each
coming TO them, and of course are jubi-
liant The Narwhal took only five whales
this season. Her big catch was made
last year in the vicinity of the Mckenzie
River.
Telling of their experiences to-day the
whalers declared that during their phe-
nomenal run of luck they could not kill
all the whales that came up to blow, and
that sometimes their men in the boats
found themselves in the middle OF q
school and in danger OF being lifted out
OF the water by whales coming up to the
surface.
The Narwhal lost but one life during
the cruise. John Regan was caught in a
blizzard while hunting and frozen to
death. When his sled reached the vessel
Regan was frozen to it, and Charles
Howell, his companion, was so badly
frozen that he is still disabled, and was
sent TO the Marine Hosdital when the
Narwhal arrived to-day. TO save How
eil's life, both OF his feet were amputated
by the ships engineer.

whaling fleet to September 10Th as fol-
