WILKEsBARRE, Pa, June %. =
While about 80 miners were at work
in the Red Ash vein of the twin shaft
at Pittston, about 8 o'clock this after
noon, the roof caved in, and it is be-
'lieved all of the men perished. About
40 of the imprisoned men are English
speaking miners, the others foreign.
The men were at work propping up
the roof when the fall occurred. The
alarm was Immediately given by the
ringing of fire bells, and rescuers were
put to work without delay.
More than two-thirds of the victims
were married men. Among them
were Acting Mayor Lanigan, who was
inside superintendent of the mine, and
Linnet, ward councilman.

Raised the Lower Grades. l..

OAKEsDALE, Wash, June 27.-A
suit of more than ordinary interest to
grain dealers has been decided here.
McEachran & Mcleod bought several
carloads of No. wheat and shipped 1t
to Spokane. The state grain inspector
graded it as No. 2 wheat, and the
purchaser lost money on the deal.
Heistand, Warner g. Co. refused 10
make good the difference, as, when
the grain was loaded into the cars the
purchaser had man to grade it. The
defendants had hired men to
empty the grain out of the sacks, and
had mixed No. l.. and No. 2. wheat to-
gether and rasacked it, in order to
make the wheat grade as No. l. The
iuryrendered a verdict for the plaintiff.
This will affect all wheat sales In the
state hereafter, as it is said to be q
common practice to mix the grades Of
wheat to improve the lower grades.

A BITTER FEELING.
Engendered In Spain by the Senatorial
Debate.

Engendered in Spain by the Senatorial
Debate.
MADRID, June 27.-As was generally
expected, the senatorial debates have
placed the government in very
awkward position and have allowed
the liberal opposition to pander to the
popular Irritation against the United
States by speeches bitterly accusing
the conservative government of hav-
ing submitted to many humiliating
concessions enacted by the American
government and diplomacy since the
beginning of the Cuban insurrection.
In vain did the minister of foreign
affairs, the Duke of Tetuan, deprecate
such recriminations as were calculate
ed to harm the interests of Spain and
her relations with America; vainly
did the leading members and former
ministers of the liberal party endeavor
to restrict the ardor of their orators,
the president of the senate vainly in
voked the rules of the house to check
Senator Comas and Jimino. 1t was
easy to see that the latter were in
touch with many of the senators and
peopl. in the galleries who murmured
distinct approval.
The press is applauding the Grafton
who cunningly elicited from Marshal
Campos and Generals Calleia, Pando
and Polavieja the declaration that the
treaties of 1895 and 1877 with America
were the most serious obstacles to the
pacifcation of Cuba, and ought, there
fore, to be repudiated.
The ministerial paper, La Epoca, ac-
cused the opposition Of lack of fore
sight and jlngoism, both in reference
to the demonstration against America
and in the exaggerated importance
attributed by the republic
cans and the liberals, to the very en-
thusiastic welcome the French feet
and officers have been given by all
classes and by the local authorities in
Ferot and Corunna, and the similar
welcome given to the French military
bands at Barcelona, W tn the addition
of public speeches and toasts in favor
of an alliance that naturally might
give offense to other foreign govern
ments. k
The idea of closer relations with
France and Russia Is daily gaining
ground, and is openly advocated by
the press and in financial circles, es-
pecially as the Spanish government
cannot float, outside the Paris market,
the contemplated loan of 800, 100000
for Cuban war expenses that its
eortes is about to authorize, with the
guarantee Of the Spanish treasury and
3 special mortgage on the tobacco
monopoly, because the present funds
cannot last beyond September.

HOPE Is ABANDONED.
Entombed Coal Miners Cannot be Res
cued,


WILKEsBARRE, Pa, June 29.-Ex-
citement at the Twin shaft in Pittston,
where nearly 100 miners are entombed,
continues today. At the mouth of
the shaft, besides the wives and chill
dren of the entombed men, there are
hundreds of persons, not residents OF
Pittston alone, but visitors from
Scranton and Wilkesbarre. The wives
and children of the entombed men
stand near the opening of the death
chamber urging the rescuers to
greater efforts.
Practically nothing has been accom-
plished toward the recovery of the
men. There is scarcely an old miner
about the opening of the mine who
does not believe the men are all dead.
The rescuing party which went into
the-mine at o'clock came out at I.
The foreman reports that the timber
ing is, going on as rapidly as possible:
The work is necessarily slow, owing to
the danger of falling rocks loosened by
the explosion. 1t is hardly possible
that actual digging will begin before
late this afternoon. If the slope is
not completely choked with debris,
the rescuers may possibly be able to
reach the men within "a hours. Other
wise may be two or three days.
The rescuing party is 1000 feet from
where the cavern occurred. Gas
continues to accumulate, and the roof,
which was~weakened by the explosion
Is in danger of falling at any moment.
A survey of the interior of the mine
this morning shows that the main
slope Is blocked worse than the off,
cials will admit. Fully 80 feet that
had been cleared up vest erday after.

a contest that drew a remarkably large
crowd. who anticipated a close struggle,
but were disappointed. The spectators,
of which a large number were from this
city, were hopeful the Hobokens would
win, but in place Of this they were de-
feated more decisiyely than ever. Their
work in the field and with the stick made
one believe they were not in the same
class. The Hobokens made a miserable
show and fumbled the BAN and allowed
hits to get past them that Should have
