A SECOND MESSAGE

Sent From Secretary Gresham to the
Spanish Government About the Allianca
Affair.
WASHINGTON, March 21.-The report
is in circulation that a second dispatch
has been sent to Madrid about the Al
lianca. The United States is far from
satisfied with Spain's reply. Its tenor,
while expressing a willingness to make
amends, is with the condition that an
investigation be first made to as
certain the actual facts. The second
note of Secretary Gresham is said
to aver that Spain should have ample
time to make inquiry, but the demand
in the first note is repeated and made
insistent that Spain shall concede the
right of American vessels to proceed
through the Windward Passage, and
shall likewise instruct the authorities
in Cuba to refrain from any interfer.
ence with vessels carrying the Ameri'
can flag.

TRADE REVIEW.
Indications of Improvement In susNues'
Grow More Distinct.

Indications of Improvement In Business
Grow More Distinct.
New YORK, March ear, G. Dun Il
Co. s weekly review of trade Saturday
says:
"Indications of improvement in bust
ness grow more distinct. The most
obtrusive of them, the speculative ad-
vance in cotton and stocks, is the least
reliable, nor can either of these be said
to reflect actual improvement in busi-
ness conditions More valuable indica-
tions are that the volume of domestic
trade gains little, money is in much
better legitimate demand and the force
of hands at work gradually increases
in some industries, and in Others is re-
stricted only by strikes, which are pre-
sumably temporary.
Liabilities in failures for the first
two weeks of March were, for the first
time in more than year. larger than
a year ago, 1879, All against S4, s35, lao
last year, 81, 4,672, 555 being of manufac-
turing concerns against 80, 800, 257 last
year. But collections are, on the
whole, reported quite satisfactory.
Failures during the past week have
been 27S in the United States, against
244 last year, and 35 in Canada, against
30 last year"
New YORK, March 23.-Bradstreet's
Saturday says:
Improvement in trade is more
marked, but not general. 1t is more
conspicuous at larger New England
points, at New York, Pittsburgh, Gin
cinnati, Louisville and other center'
along the Ohio river valley to St
Louis, and as far west as Kan

from Chicago, Milwaukee and st
Paul, the first named announcing
that smaller quantities of four pei
cent. money are being offered, the
banks working steadily toward pc

better feeling is reported, based on th
recently developed strength in cotton

WIND STORM.
A Tornado Does Much Damage in Alabami
and Georgia.


and Georgia.
AUGUSTA, Ga. March 21.-At0 o'clock
Wednesday morning Augusta was visi-
ted by the most destructive windstorm
since 1878. The tornado came from
the southwest, with little warning,
and passed over the city into South
Carolina.
In it's track destruction followed;
houses were wiped from their founda-
tions and sent in all directions over
housetops that were not touched by
the circular wind. Strange to say,
there were no fatalities, though in
MANY instances roofs were carried
away, leaving the occupants OF the
houses unhurt.
The majority of the houses ruined
were small, one-story ones, as the Sec
ton OF the city over which the tornado
passed was that for the most part in
habited by the poorer classes of white
and Negroes.
The path of the tornado was about
mile in length from the first place il
struck to where it finally rose and
passed over, and was in the shape Of
an S. 1t struck about every quarter o1
a mile, making four descents and re
bounding, but the second one was per
haps the worst. This was on Gwynet'
street, between Eighth and Ninth.
COLUMBUS, Ga, March 21.-A tornado
and tremendous rain visited this sec
ton at 5 o'clock Wednesday morning
The disturbance was greater in Girard
Ala, across the river. The roof of th'
fertilizer mandatory was carried OF
and four houses were blown down. N,
loss of life is reported, but the damag
to property is considerable. All tn
bridges in Girard were swept away.

IN A MINE.
A Large Number of Miners Man.
gled in Wyoming.
An Explosion That Shook the COun-
try for Miles Around.
Several Bodies Taken Out, Burned Beyond
Recognition-The Disaster Came With
out Warming and Before All the Men
Had Left the Mine in the Evening.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, March GA
special to the Tribune from Red Can
yon says: A terrible explosion at Rocky
Mountain Mine No. :, situated at Red
Canyon, Wyo,, is believed to have
killed eighty men, who are imprisoned
in the mine, in addition to ten who
were in the power house above ground
OF near the shaft openings. The
slopes and entrances TO the lower
workings are all blocl1adcd by wreck
age, and it is thought at least three
days will be required for rescue parties
to reach the bodies in the mine.
The horror occurred at 5:45 Wednes-
day evening at No. Central Pacific
mine, Red Canyon, five miles north OF
Evanston. The explosion in the mine
shocked the whole country around,
wrecked the power plant, a farmhouse
and several other buildings, entailing
heavy loss, but the death roll far
overshadows other considerations.
Edwin Cox, the outside carpenter; JAS.
Bruce. outside boss: James w. Clark,
IL. =,
Austrian, were killed in the power
house, while o. Maltby, foreman; Jer-
ry Crawford. and Andrew Mason were
injured and died soon afterward, the
last three being about the power-house
ut the time of the explosion. A few
hours later the dead bodies of James
Limb and Fred Morgan were brought
from the slope, only a short distance
down, but as this is written there is
around the mine great throng of peo-
pie anxiously inquiring for friends
known to be in the mine, and all hope
of any of them being alive is gone.
No one after seeing the ghastly spec
tacle presented by the two bodies
brought out of the slope could have
hopes of any one in the mine being
alive. These bodies were burned and
blackened, with garments torn to
shreds, making it almost impossible to
identify them. How many were in the
mine at the time of the explosion will
take time to tell, but the best informa-
ton obtainable places the number at
fully eighty
Nearly all known to be killed leave
large families. Immediately after the
explosion superintendent Bradbury tel
ephoned to Evanston for all the physi'
clans, with an extra train. A cor
respondent went on the train and
viewed the scene of the disaster before
darkness set in. The relief corps, car
rying lanterns, got ready to descend in
hopes of rescuing alive some of the
victims The blacksmith shop was
turned into dead-house, with four
bodies lying there, one disfgured, with
it's head blown off, the others less
mangled. Brave men have tried tC
descend some of the air and escape
slopes without success, and it was mo-
until three hours after the explosion
that volunteer party entered the
main entrance to the slopes, and soor
afterwards returned with two bodies
They reported caves stopped furthel
progress down the slope. Then party
went down to clear away the caves
after which the searching party agar
entered, and work in that line is nov
going on.

The sixty-one who met their death

with most impressive ceremonies. There
were thirty-one buried from the Nor
mon church alone. 1t was intended to
carry the coffined bodies of the dead
into the church, but after thirteen had
been carried in it was found that all
of them would occupy so much room
that there would not be space to seat
the mourners, and the bodies were
moved again and arranged in row at
the side of the church.
