AFTER IA LONG DAYS
The Bodies Of The Victims of the El-
dora Mine Disaster Recovered.
AN ANTE-MORTEM COUNCIL
Side by Side the Doomed Men Lie
in Cold Chamber to Await
the End-Their Last
Messages.

New York, Sept. IA special to the
Herald from vancouver. b. c., says:
Advices received by the Australian
steamer Miowera says that the bodies
OF the victims OF the EldOra mine dis
aster have been recovered after two
weeks burial. The men were working
in NJ. c. Ayers mine when the banking
made to keep off the river gave way
and filled the mine with slum. They
were imprisoned and almost within
hearing OF tho rescuers. 1t took exact
ly IA days to reach the dying men and
in that time all were beyond the need
Of assistance. Evidences Of the terrible
suffering of the poor fellows al the
last moments were most heartrendlng.
Believing that they would be eventual
ly reached by the rescuers but knowing
too that II would be too late. the men
evidently held an ante-mortem council.
for most of them wrote letters to
friends and relatives from their living
grave and there were evidences of
solemn intercourse before death ended
their terrible suffering, All but one of
the men were found in naturally
formed chamber. dying quietly side by
side as II sleeping. They wore peaceful
expressions and must before death
have been lulled to death by generated
gas. BY letters left they had, however,
been In conversation together for "a
hours after their fearful Imprisonment.
The messages Were written In the dark
and 1t took six hours to diclpher them.

CAT BITES ARE BAD
HYDROPHOBlA NOT A SPON-
TANEOUS DISEASE IN DOGS.
Even Birds Go Mad DIR. Antonio Talks
About the Dreadful Disease-skunks
and Pigs Have 1t.

Chicago. Sept. 16-Several Ohio peo-
pie are undergoing treatment In the
Pasteur institute, and DIR. Antonio La
gorio. director. furnishes some inter-
esting facts regarding the treatment
of hydrorhobia. He says 1t is very
infectious disease, but can only be
produced by the poison being absorbed
into the body.
'Hydrophobla is more prevalent than
most people suppose" said the doc
tor. "It is not spontaneous disease
in dogs. The poison may lie dormant
for a long time, but it will In the end
act on the animal. How is the disease
acquired? A dog must be bitten by
some rabid animal. Then 1t is a case
OF pass 1t on. II all the dogs were
killed the disease would disappear. Tho
history of rabies is rather obscure. 1t
has been traced back 5000 years.
'All warm-blooded animals. even
birds. are subject 10 1t. l have found
in my practice that Newfoundland dogs
are most liable to be its prey. l regard
the bite of a rabid cat as more danger
Gus than that of a rabid dog. They
bite deeper and lacerate the tissues
more. The disease Is purely physical.
''The best way Is to disinfect the
wound with peroxide of hydrogen.
II the bites are deep the cauterization
cannot be thorough. In five years we
have treated 341 persons bitten By
dogs, nine by horses. seven by cats,
five by skunks, two by wolves, one by
a mule, and one by a pig"

BURNED IN A SHIP.


London. Sept. 16-Fire broke out on the
steamer Iona, from Edinburgh to Lon
don. to-day. The flames spread with
such rapidlty tha. before aid reached the
vessel six passengers and the stewariess
of the Iona were burned to death. The
fire was put out after a four hours
struggle.
Fire broke out when the Iona was Off
Clackton in the fore part of the vessel.
The passengers were aroused and It was
supposed all had escaped from the burn.
ing cabin.
While the crew were fighting the
flames the sailors on board assisted I'm
lowering the bats and supplying the pas
songers with l5fe belts. There was no
wind and the sea was perfectly smooth.
Ther was, however. some excitement
and confusion among the passengers
when Il was discovered thar some women
and children were missing. The steward
ess re-entered the burning cabal and
tried to rescue them and she also per-
ished.
Darkness and the smoke issuing from
the burning cabin combined TO make u a
terrible scene. IL was not until three
compartments were burned that x be-
came possible 20 enter the cabin where
were discovered the remains Of SIX wo-
men and one child. Then the engines
were started up again and fhe vessel pro-
ceeded on lher way TO Lon lon.
There are many rumors In regard 70
the origin of the fire. Some passengers
alleged the male passengers acted IN a
cowardly manner. seeking first their own
safety instead OF assisting the women
and children into the boats.

NAMING A COUNTY,
Two Brothers Have a Tilt I'm Convention
-Bntler Doesn't Go.

Columbia. S. c., Sept 16.-The pro-
ceedings of hte constitutional conven-
ton to-day were characterized by a
most exciting tilt between Senator
Tillman and his brother. George D.
Tillman. on the question OF naming a
new county. George d. Tillman on
Saturday had succeeded in getting the
county named Butler. Senator Till
man was absent at the time and re-
turning to-day he moved to change the
name TO Saluda. In passionate
speech he charged Senator Butler with
being a traitor to the party and said
that to name. the county for him was
an insult 10 the reformers of the
state. George ID. Tillman. in re-
ply. taunted his brother with fighting
a man whom he had defeated. and
dramatically striking his breast ex-
claimed: Thank God, there Is no SEN
timent In my heart that would make
me stoop so low" The scene became
extremely exciting and the convention
was in wild confusion. which continued
until adjournment at i:15 p. m. Sene-
tor Tillman In his speech taunted Sem
ator Irby with not replying 10 his
bruther, G. D. Tillman. on Saturday.

tlons In Gold.
Copyrighted 1895 by Associated Press.
London, Sept. lG.--fion. James ".
Eckels. comptroller Of the Unlted States
treasury. made the following statement
to-day on the request OF representa-
tive Of the associated press: Being this
far away from New York, and not know
ing the exact conditions prevailing there,
which are producing shipments OF gold
abroad, | feel | can say nothing upon
that subject which will he OF special ben
eft to the public. Generally speaking,
these gold shipments come about from
the fact that the American people are
buying a great deal abroad and are not
selling suiiiciemt of their own products
to equalze things, thus necessitating the
settlement Of the balance due In gold to
maintain the financial system which
makes the United States treasury the
general market of supply for all requ!r-
ing gold. Consequently more or less en-
barrassment comes to the administration
OF the treasury department when These
balances require 10 he settled. However.
the treasury has always managed TO
maintain unquestioned payment In gold
of its obligations and always will do so.
The system under which II Is forced to
operate makes II sometimes expensive to
do so, but so long as representatives. In
congress refuse TO change that system
ana so long as the voters tolerate them
the people have no right to complain OF
the expense"
