"OLD IRONSIDEs', 1T SEA.
She Leaves Portsmouth Navy Yard in Tow
 of Tugs for Boston


 Portsmouth, N. H., Sept. 20.-Hun- dreds of spectators lined the water front here to-day to witness the de- parture of the veteran United States frigate Constitution for Boston. The United States tug Leydon and the tug Piscataqua took the historic old ship in tow at 1:50 D. m. The Constitution left the navy yard amid the footing of whistles the cheering of the crowds and a salute fired by enthusiastic ad- mirers.
 The Constitution was in command of Boatswain Haley, with thirty men on board. Captain Very, who is in com mand of the expedition to Boston. will release carrier pigeon every ten miles which will give information how the vessel is behaving It is expected that the vessel will reach Boston tomorrow noon.
 The old craft was launched at Boston one hundred years ago to-day, and she will be kept in a state of preservation at that port.
 As the Constitution rounded Pull and Bedam Point" where the tide runs strongly, extra care was taken by the tugs that she did not swing too far in shore. But with this well known point passed, everything went along smoothly and the frigate passed New castle and out of the mouth of the river before o'clock. The Isle of Shoals was passed at 3 o'clock.
 Shortly after o'clock the wind shift ed to the north and kicked up an ugly chop in the bay, and soon it commenced to rain, but when last seen the old boat was riding the waves as grandly as she did in years gone by.

WILLIAM 4r BUDApEsT.
Received by the Austrian Emperor and
 His Ministers.

Budapest, Sept. 20,-Emperor William this morning, and was welcomed by Emperor Francis Joseph, the cabinet ministers, and the civil and military authorities The approach of the im- perial train was heralded by a salute of tWenty-four guns, and when it steamed into the railroad station all those present on the platform loudly cheered, and the band played "Heil dem Kaiser"
 Emperor Francis Joseph met the Ger man emperor at the door of the saloon carriage and, after cordial greetings had been exchanged. the two emperors passed in front of the guard of honor Emperor William greeted the Austrian archdukes when this ceremony was concluded, and also shook hands with the state dignitaries Then the mon archs, heartily cheered by the crowds about the depot, entered court equip age and drove to the castle, the arch dukes and ministers following. The city is profusely decorated in honor of the meeting of the emperors.
 The Austrian emperor wore the uni form of Prussian field marshal and the ribbon of the black eagle. The Ger man emperor wore the uniform of an Austrian Hussar regiment and the Grand Cross of St. Stephen.
 When the two sovereigns first met they kissed each other twice. The car- riage which conveyed them from the railroad station to the castle was drawn by five horses ridden by positions. As the British majesties drove off there were loud shouts of "Eljen' mingled with the hunder of artillery salute, the music of the bands, the roll of drums and bugle salutes. Handkerchiefs and hats were to be seen wavering on all sides as the imperial carriage traversed the main streets.
 The decorations were especially bril- liant at the entrance of Kerepesi street in Franz Josef square, where a statue had been erected personifyipg Hungary and having in one hand an olive branch extended towards the imperiol visitor. The enthusiasm visibly pleased the monarch, and Emperor William showed signs of the greatest satisfaction The German emperor later bestowed the grand cordon of the Prussian crown upon the son of Count Andrassy.

HER LAST TON OF COAL
BURNING TT LIEUTENANT PEARY'S STEAMER HOPE COMES INTO PORT.

The Expedition to Greenland Highly Suc-
 cessfui-The Cape York Meteorite, the
 Largest in the World, in the Steamers s
 Hold-Six Esquimaux Brought Back to Go With Peary Next Year to the Pole.
 Sydney c. B., Sept. 20.-The steam sailing bark Hope, with Lieutenant R. F. Peary and party on board returning from North Greenland, arrived here at 5 o'clock this afternoon. All on board are well.
 The Hope came into bort burning her last ton of coal and with her bulwarks and decks giving evidence of the furi- ous seas of an unusually stormy sum- mer. She is nearly as deep in the water as when she left here in the lat ter part of July with her bunkers full of coal; for the huge Cape York meteor ite, the largest in the world, is in her hold and bedded in tons of ballast.
 Lieutenant Peary has on board also six Cape York Esquimaux, who will go with him when he returns next year to attempt to reach the North Pole. The Esquimaux have their tents, dogs, sleds and canoe. They are eager for the un- dertaking and all the arrangements have been made.
 The expedition visited Cape Sabine and relics of the ill-fated expedition led by Greedy have been obtained. The summer in Baffin bay was marked by almost continual stormy weather and by an unusual scarcity of ice.
 The Investigating party from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology under MT. Porter landed at Cape Haven on August and did not embark until September 13.
 The party led by MT. Hugh Lee, the Arctic explorer, of Meriden, Conn.,, landed at Godhaven on August and re-embarked September '. Professor Schucherts party, representing the National Museum, landed at Onemak on August 8, re-embarking on Septem- Der 4 The party, led by MT. Robert Stein of the United States geological survey, was on land from August 10 to September g.
 The Hope will come here and then proceed to New York, where she will land her meteorite.
 The object of the expedition, which left Boston on July 19 last for Sydney, was to bring about the establishment of a settlement at remote northern point in Greenland which could be used as base of supplies for an ex- petition in search of the North Pole un- der Lieutenant Peary in 1898.
 To this end, according to Lieutenant Pearys plans as made known at that time, party of Esquimaux was to be established at the new settlement and would during the ensuing twelve twelve months be engaged in making preparations for the expedition. The Hope was to skirt the coast of Green land, dropping scientific parties at va fious points and taking Lieutenant Peary to Whale Sound, where it was proposed to establish the settlement.

MINE HoRRoR1N ALABAMA.
Five Men Thought to Have Lost Their
 Lives in n Catastrophe.

Lives in n Catastrophe.
 New Orleans, Sept 2O,-A special from Birmingham, Ala, to the Plea yune says:
 About two hours after the men went to work in mine No. 2 of the Bessemer Land and Improvemnt company's coal mine at Belle Ellen, near Blockton, Bibb county, this morning, fire was dis covered far down in the mine slope.
 About one hundred men are employed in the mine and an alarm was at once given. A panic followed among the workers and in the little town of Belle Ellen. Hundreds of men, women and children gathered at the main entrance of the smoking mine, while rescue par ties were formed to relieve the miners.
 More than fifty were gotten out from the various entrances without harm.
 Others were overcome by smoke and fell in the tunnels. These the search CTS found and dragged out A scene of widest excitement prevailed at the mines mouth. Women and children were screaming and shouting for help, and fire brigade was at work endeav- bring to overcome the flames.
 Five men who were working about the slope beyond where the fire origi- mated could not be reached, and it is regarded as certain that they are dead The missing are:
 Herman Kramer and Hubbard Foley, white, and Henry Reeves, Frank James and William Fairfax, colored.
 It is possible that two or three others may be in the mines, but these five are known to be lost. There was no possi- bility of their escape, and the fire brigade battled with the flames all day in vain attempt to reach the entomb- ed men, but at night fall the fire was still burning fiercely and efforts were abandoned and the men were given up for dead. The fire is thought to have originated from an overloaded steam pipe which ignited gas in the mine.

NO ULTIMdTUM TO STAIN.
Gen. Woodford's Interview With Duke Of
 Tetuan Evidently Misconstrued.

Paris, Sept. 20.--A dispatch from san sebastian to the Temps of this city says that in his interview yesterday with the Duke of Tetuan, the Spanish minister of foreign affairs, the United States minister to Spain, General Stew art l.. Woodford, did not present any claim for indemnity but confined his interview to a moderately phrased statement of the great injuries com merce and industry had suffered in the United States through the prolongation of the Cuban war
 General Woodford is said to have add ed that Secretary Sherman had desired nm to declare to the Spanish govern men that it was evidently impossible for spain to end the rebellion in reason able time and, further that if the war was continued in Cuba, it would be de- vastated and of no utility to Spain or to the Cubans.
 In conclusion, the United States min lster is reported to have insisted cour- teously but firmly upon the necessity to terminate the war, declaring that if 1t was not terminated by the end of Oc- ober the United States would feel jus tilted in taking measures to secure the Independence of Cuba.
 The Duke of Tetuan, according to the dispatch of the Temps, while protest ing against the alleged American ore tenslons,' said he would reply officially to the United States minister when the Spanish court returns to Madrid.
 Washington, Sept. 20.-It can be stat ed in reference to the Paris publication purportlns to give the substance of General Woodford's communication to the Duke of Tetuan yesterday. that there has been misapprehension on the part of the Temps correspondent on several important points, notably in respect to an ultimatum and the set ting of time limit for the conclusion of the war.
 Instead of fixing the end of October next as the date for the termination of the war, that particular date was men, tioned as the time when the Spanish court would return to Madrid from San Sebastian and when, consequently. it might be in order to return an answer to the latest representations of the United States government through MT. Woodford.
 It is declared at the state department that while MT. Woodford did, according to the original idea of his instructions set out the deep interest the United States had in witnessing cessation of the deplorable conflict in Cuba, he did not deliver himself of an ultima tum, but simply made a statement of our deep interest in settlement of the Cuban war as reasonable explanation for intervention in any manner at this time. MT. Woodford's telegram re- garding his conferences with the Duke of Tetuan is now before President Me- Kinley.

 Tt Is reported that as Emperor Will liam and Emperor Francis Joseph were leaving the station at Budapest a sharp detonation was heard, which was fol- lowed by a thick cloud of dust and smoke.
