and swearing on the part of the high

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, July 24-The indie
pendent Union of Mine Workers of Amer,
ica nave petitioned the coal operators of
the Wyoming valley to advance the price
of coal in order that the operators may be
in a better position to give the miners an
increase of wages. Attention Is called to
the fact that while some of the ne~cessaries
of life lave advanced in price during the
past year the wages of miners have been
reduced. The operators are asked to at
tend q conference to be held at Pottsville.
The coal operators here say the deplora-
BILE condition of the coal trade will not
warrant an increase of miners wages, and
they all decline to attend the conference.
II is o unprecedented that their refusal
will cause a strike.

QUEER BANKING METHobS.


Dhhh
WILLTMANTGc, Conn, July 24-In the
superior court States Attorney Hunter
applied for an Injunction restraining the
officers Of tho Dino Savings bank from
carrying on business longer, for an order
reyoking the charter, and for disposition
of the bank property. Saturday morning
was set for a hearing on the motion.
There has been several startling revela-
tions in the Dime bank mystery, among
them being che announcement that the
bank was insolvent months ago.
On July l last the term of Office of y. A.
Bucks as bank commissioner expired. He
declared the bank solvent at the time.
COMMISSIONS Crofut's latest cxamina-
tions disprove this statement, and his dis.
closures caused Mr.. Bucks, who was
elected president ofthe bank on Monday
afternoon, to resign.
commissioner Crofut also discovered
chat the banks bookkeeping has been Of
the lowest character. No interest what
ever has been paid on many notes, and
thousands of dollars in unsecured per-
sonal notes have been found. Among
these are 81, 600 in notes signed by Will
lam Bucks, son of the ex-commissioner.
1t has also come out that Cashier Walden
advanced $4,000 of the banks money for
the purchase of the Morrison Machine
company estate by Attorney Thomas j..
Kelly. Mr.. Kelly appeared at a meeting
OF the directors and explained that he
acted as Mr.. Walden's agent in selling
machinery to Sutton & Balm, of Allen
town, Pa, assuming that it was for the
benefit of the bank. This was the machin-
cry for which Walden paid $500 of the
banks money. The directors lave ap-
pointed a committee to collect $1,000 due
on this, and the latter left on a late train
for Allentown.

HI SILVER CITY FLOOD.
Great Destruction Of Property, but Not q
Life Lost.

liz AUHN
SILVER CITY, n. NJ, July 2I-Between
8 o'clock and midnight Sunday night five
Inches Of rain fell in this city and in the
mountains to the north. Before 8 o'clock
the water was rushing down the lot
tain sides in torrents, and a few minutes
later the business streets of the city were
filed with a flood from four TO eight feet
deep. The grade of the streets Is heavy,
and water rushed through them with such
swiftness that crossing was impossible, A
foot bridge which had been constructed so
that people in the lower part of the town
could cross to a place of safety in case Of
a flood was washed away, and all means
of getting out Of the flooded district was
cut off.
The night was intensely dark, and for
three hours the people of the city were
terror stricken. Several people gave them
selves up for lost when some Of the weaker
buildings began to crumble before the de-
structive floods. Nine buildings were
washed down, but not a life was lost.
In the business part Of the city many
buildings are settling, and the amount of
the loss may reach thousands of dollars
more than the losses which are now GER
tain. Some estimates place the loss as
high as $500, 600. The railroad company
has sustained a heavy loss, and it will take
more than a week to repair the tracks so
thattrains can be gotten here. T~elegraphic

Dynamite.
CHICAGO, July 24.-Three men were in
stantly killed and a fourth badly injured
by a premature explosion of dynamite on
the drainage canal, near Willow Springs.
The dead are: William Kelly of Mar
quette, Thomas Soaker of Chicago and
Joseph Smith, residence unknown. Mat
thew Healey received a severe scalp wound,
Kelly, Soaker and Smith were preparing
a blast, and were pressing the dynamite
into the hole, when suddenly the blast,
which was almost completed, went of.
All three men were hurled high In the air
and came down fully 200 yards from the
scene Of the explosion. All were mangled
in a most horrible tanner.
Over a hundred men were at work close
to the blast when the explosion occurred,
and it is a wonder that the loss of life was
not much greater. They made a wild
break for cover when the shower of rock
began to fall, and all escaped injury with
the exception Of Healey, who was struck
by a piece Of rock.
No u is known for the explosion, as
all the men were careful and experienced
in the handling of dynamite,
