The joint Library Committee Of the
United States House and Senate have re-
solved that the statue of General Grant.
presented to the government by the Grand
Army of the Republic, should be rejected.
1t was decided that the statue was not
a correct representation Of General Grant.
and that the facial resemblance was so
imperfect that 1t would not be recognized
unless labelled with the Generals name.

ALL MUST BE DEAD.
NO Possible Chance of Roscuing Impris-
Oned Minors In Michigan.

CALUMET, Mich, Sept. 10.-Ten MIN
ers went down the southernmost shaft
of the Osceola mine Monday morning.
The men were especially selected
among the fearless and expert
enced workmen habited to breathing
powder smoke and foul air. The party
descended in the skip, or iron car used
in bringing up rock from the mine to
the cath level, and managed to press
north on that level to within $50 feet
of No. shaft, next south of
the burning one. AT that point
two of the party were overcome by the
gas, and to save adding fresh victims
to the already long list the relief ex-
pedition turned back. In No. 1 shaft
at the other end of the mine
similar attempt was made by care
fully organized party similar to the
first, but at the depth of only $50
feet down the shaft smoke was met in
such volume that it was foolhardy to
descend further and the miners quickly
came to the surface. The experience
of the rescuing parties are in Nos. l
and 5, where the smoke would nat
urally be met with in the least guam
titles, renders it certain that the entire
mine is now filed with it, and cuts off
the last hope that the missing men
may have been able to preserve
their lives Rescuing parties will
be sent down as frequently as pos
sible to test the condition. 1t will
probably be several days before the
mine will be clear of smoke, even if
the fire has gone out, which is quite
doubtful. 1t is now positively known
that twenty nine men and boys were.
caught in the mine. Nineteen Of the
men were married.
The most pitiful scenes are being
hourly enacted in the vicinity of the
shafts that have not yet been sealed,
bereaved women and children clinging
to the spot in the desperate hope that
some loved form may yet emerge from
the opening. Every shaft was late
Monday afternoon ordered tightly
closed up, to remain so for twenty
four hours.
johnson, one of the doomed men,
lost his life by going down into the
mine after Capt. Edwards, whom he
supposed to be in the vicinity of the
fire. In fact, the fire was discovered
by Edwards, and he went to the sur
face to get hose to eXtingulsh the
flames. Brave johnson thus sacrificed
himself for naught, and Capt. Edwards
is almost heartbroken on Johnson's ac-
count

Thousands of Dollars Worth of Property

,HARBoR SPRINGS, Mich, Sept TO-
The fire on Beaver island has started
anew and is making fearful headway.
People who came in on Mondays boat
say the fire was started by some camp
ers leaving their campfire unattended.
The farmers on the island are leaving
everything and fleeing to the St.
James river and the coast. Many thou
sand dollars worth of valuable timber
has already been burned, and clouds
of smoke cover the Jake. Cinders haye
been borne To the mainland. The only
hope of stopping the fire is in back
firing at the swamp between the marsh
and the village of Cross If not stopped
there the town must go.

Turkish Troops Sack Armenian villages
and Ill Treat the Inhabitants.
LONDON, Sept. 1o-A dispatch to the
Daily News from Kars Armenia,
says that the entire district of
Kemaka is surrounded by Turkish
troops dispatched by Zekki Pasha
under the plea of arresting Armenian
revolutionaries. The villages of Carni,
Tiruguegner, Tortan, Horoput and
Marig are reported to be completely
sacked, and the population, aggre-
eating 5000 people, were ill-treated.
The men were tortured and the
women and children were assaulted.
The four monasteries of Auakwauk,
Sourphop, Thervorithchoga and Soup
phagop were sacked and the altars and
images were destroyed. The excitement
and alarm are universal. Authentic in
formation from Moush is to the effect
that an anti-Christian society of Turk
ish officials has been formed there and
at Bitlis with the avowed intention to
slaughter the Christians in the event
of the acceptance by the porte of the
scheme of reforms presented by the
powers. 1t is declared that Consul
Hampson is to be the first victim.
