GENUINE.

Senator Marion Butler, Of North
Carolina, who has introduced the Pos
tai Telegraph bill in the Senate of the
United States, and supported it with q
vigorous and eloquent speech, says:
The Postofice Department should
place a telegraph or telephone in every
p~ostofice in the United States, and
provide for a system of free rural mail
delivery to be opened at cost. 1t would
be a great blessing to the people and
can be done at a great saving of ex-
pense to the people,"
The present management is unc0n-
stitutiOnal."
And in his speech, the Senator quotes
from a speech by Sumner, made be-
fore the House Committee on Post
Offices and Railroed s, March %, 1884,
in which the latter said:
Il lay it down as a proposition that
1 want to have ably considered by this
committee and the country, that the
Constitution of the United States, as
interpreted by a century of unchal-
lenged legislation, does imperatively
require that the Congress of the United
States shall establish a postal system
l lay it down as a fundamental propo-
sition that a postal telegraph is a part
of the postal system of the Govern
ment; the postal system of the United
States having been established for the
purpose Of transmitting intelligence be-
tween the inhabitants of the land"
The logic is memorable, leading from
the pony to the stage coach, from the
stage coach to the railroad and steamer,
and then to the telegraph.-San Fran

A HORRIBLE CATASTROPHE.

Seventy Men are En- ombed in a Mine
and Believed to Have Been Killed Out
right-The Scene S Heartrending-The
Work of Rescuing Goes On.
PITTSBURG, Pa, June ga pail
hangs over this mining city on account
of yesterdays catastrophe. To day it
is stated that the death list reaches
about seventy, though the exact num-
Der Of dead cannot be ascertained be-
cause a number are Polanders whose
names are only known to the foreman.
The work Of rescue continues to daY,
though there is little hope of reaching
the victims for several days. Old
miners believe that every man en-
tOmbed was killed outright. All day
yesterday and all night last night about
a hundred men worked at the mouth
of the mine. Thousands of feet of lum,
Der was lowered into the shafts and
preparations were made to brace up
the roof of the mine to prevent another
catastrophe.
After vainly trying to make an effec
tive entrance to the last level of the
mine it was decided early this morning
to try another means of rescuing the
bodies. Ga opposite sides of the river
is a shaft and a clear springs colliery.
The two meet in the middle of the river,
a wall two hundred feet separating
them. The plan Of the mine officials
is to drill a hole through the wall as
blasting is thought to be dangerous. 1t
will take at least thirty six hours be-
fore a hole ten feet in diameter can be
drilled through the wall between the
two mines. The scene at the mouth OF
the twin shaft continues heartrending.
The grief stricken families are terrible
to witness. Many wives and children
of men haven't left the mouth of the
shaft since the terrible accident. The
disaster is one CT the worst in the coal
regions for years. Hope Of finding the
men alive and uniDjured is abandoned
by the older miners because they knew
the ventilation was bad and that even
if the men escaped the fall they could
not live twenty minutes in such atmo-
sphere. So far practically nothing has
been accomplished by the gangs OF res
cuers.
