(BY A Associated Press.

Glasgow, August 2.-The Auchen Haryie
colliery at Saltcoats, town on the Bay
OF Ayr, twenty-fOur miles southw of
here, has been Hooded. Sixty men have
been rescued and fourteen are cntombed in
the mine, and it is believed that they have
pcrishcd.
Searching parties have been formed but
are unable TO penetrate to the point where
the unfortunate victims are. There were
many narrow escapes on the part nf those
who succeeded in getting out of the doomed
mine in time. One boy was dro wued while
venturing into the pit 10 warn his comrades
of their danger
There is scene of intense excitement
at the pits mouth, where the wives
mothers ana families OF the cntomb ed miners
are gathered, wringing their hands and
giving all sorts Of manifestations of grief
and despair. Many refuse to give up hope
that the imprisoned miners will be saved
and their agoniZing suspense is no less dis
tressing TO see than the loud clamor of those
who thus show their despair
Those who were rescued arrived at the
surface iii most exhausted condition,
and many were rcsuscitated only with
the greatest labor. One of them says that
the water rushed like mill race through
the workings, and it was with the utmost
difficulty that those who were caught could

PRESIDENTIAL BOOMS.

Presidential booms this year are urcom-
monty peculiar. If such an expression
may be used, and their characteristics are
creating more comment than ever before.
MT Reed uses with great effect the deaf
and dumb system of announcing his candi-
dacy. Whenever a correspondent seeks an
interview the eX-Speaker resorts To sign
language, ard the news is telegraphed
over the country that Mr. Reed is still
silent, but hopeful of favorable results.
TIE Napoleonic boom, of which SO much
has been said, is taking on an alarming as
pect Through the medium of a convenient
private secretary Mr.. Mckinley is busy
denying his connection with the A. L. A
organization Whether or not the Ma
poleon OF politics belongs TO an anti-Cath-
Ole or any other religious society should
make no great difference 10 the general
public, and when a man in his position
b,gins the general denial business so
early in the campaign ii looks as If his
boom has an uncertain sound that an
nounces its unnpe condition.
The Siblcy boom was pucked entirely too

fact it is seldom spoken OF except with
peculiar wrinkling of the nose, and ii is
doubtful If any convention VIII enter
tain it for a moment. Another silver

is that OF Senator Cameron. His is also
a case Of beginning too early in the cam
s95.- 80
a number of other boomiets, which, however,
do not Include the silver dollar boom OF
Uncle Dick Bland.
If silence gives consent the boom of Vice
President Stevenson is first in its claim for
popular favor Since the silver controversy
began that distinguished gentleman has
dropped entirely out of sight, although at
one time he was the most prominent Demo
cIatic candidate To the list Of non-talka-
tive politicians who feel the thIOb OF u

Col. Morrison, Senator Allison and the ever

cheerful patriots is thinking whether yes

JUSTICE FRUSTRATED.

The AclinS Secretary OF the Navy. Mr
MCAdoo yesterday acted on the charges Of
usury against the pay Officers Of the re
cciying ship Vermont.
A court Of inquiry has been sitting on
the case in New York, but IL failed to re-
port its conclusions on the evidence sub
mitted. This embarrassed Mr. McAdoo,
but he believed, it is understood, that the
record OF the court was sufficient 10 justify
q severe reprimand" to the officers in
volved il the financial irregularities.
1t VIII be remembered by readers Of
The Times that the pay Officers OF the Yer
mont were accused OF irregular payments
10 the crew, and Of taking advantage of
the resultant financial condition of poor
JACK 10 acvance him money at usurious
rates OF interest
Not only has this system been known
10 prevail on the yermunt, but it is al
leged to be especially common on ships
at foreign stations.
II is an easy thing TO impose on scameu
in money matters. The ma jority of them
will pay any rate OF interest for a little
money when they have shore leave. Under
the system said to obtain the lender takes
q voucher Tor double the amount loaned
his victim ana or pay day collects ii from
the ships paymastcr
il is q shame that conduct of this kind
should b. only visited by a mere reprimand.
No more drastic punishment is to be in
flieted on theguilty ones in the present case,
not even the subjecting OF them 10 trial by
court martial
One OF the first principles fnculcated at
Annapolis and West Point is that Of honor,
so that those educated 10y Uncle sam at the
public expense shall be in every sense of

UsuriOasly rob poor soldier or a poor sailor
is certainly not q gentleman, and he is not

government honors and remuneration in
any capacity.
1t is 10 DE regretted that Mr.. McAdoo
could not see his duty in a clearer light
that ne could not, or would not, set an ex-
ample that would at least minimize the
evils Of Shylockism in the government serv-
ice.

MISS FLAGLER IN SOCIETY.

She Has Been Very Prominent in the
Army Set.
The social interest that Centered in Miss
Flagler is naturally at this time very great,
on account OF the prominence OF her fathers
position. 1t was January %, 1891, that
General Flagler succeeded the late General
Stephen Benet as chief of ordnance, and ever
since that time he has been one of the most
popular OF the army officers stationed in
Washington
While General Flagler's family have ia ken
comparatively small part in the rush of
gaieties incident to each winter season in
Washington. they have always been promi-
nent in the army set, that in this city is so
large and so pleasant
Mrs and Miss Fiagler are well and widely
known in Washington society, and the ter
rible news Of the misfortune that has now
befallen the family from the inadvertant
act OF Miss FIagler has been a source of the
most genuine sorrow 10 every one OF her aC-
quaintance.
In person she is tall and fine looking.
with most interesting face. AS the ONLY
daughter, she has been gratificd in every
wish, as Gen. Flagler is a man or far more
than the ordinary means in army cir
cleS The house on California avenue is
handsome one, furnished in a manner
commensurate with the means of the fam
lily.
Gen. and Mrs. Flagler were enjoying a
trip in Canada, and Miss FIaglcr. during
their absence, was arranging TO spend the
time quietly at a farmhouse at Church
CreeA Dorchester county. Md. Her room
had been engaged at this place for some
weeks, and Miss Flagler was expecting
! to go there to take possession within the
next few days.
The only other child OF Gen. and Mrs

Flagler, who graduated with high honOrs
