present at the conference held to-day

There seems no disposition to talk
about the conference and Judge E. H.
Gary. president or the Federal Steel
Company. said to-day that he had no
news to give out. But 1t is understood
that the Carnegie company is taking an
important place in the meetings. A d.
rector In one OF the larger companies
said to-day:
Breaking the Verbal Agreement.
The Carnegie company. Tor one. Is
inclined TO be on It's mettie concerning
the abuse OF prices. Some OF the small
companies have been persIstently
breaking the verbal agreement by
which the steel trade is governed and
putting down their prices TO unpront-
able figures. The Carnegie company, IL
this continues, Will put prices down so
far that all the small companies will
perish in the competition. The Carne-
gle company, which has slOo,O0o.OoO re-
serve, can do this"
What is said OF the Carnegie COM

large concerns

Quiet the Celestials.
LONDON. July 6.-The danger OF 4
general revolt In China becomes more
and more patent, and Europe IS being
confronted with rapidly increasing
fear, not merely that the Intarnational
column will be forced from Tien Tstn.
but that the international troops at the
colonies and treaty ports will stand In
grave danger Of expulsion. In view OF
the fact that ths previous assurances OF
the viceroys have proved untrust-
worthy, their promises OF protection for
the whites are hardly convincing.
Meanwhile, the hitherto unconquerablc
jealousies of the European powers stay
the hands OF Japan. though 1t Is hoped
an understanding will soon be reached.
The foreign office here has received
official dispatches from Toxic to-day,
and It Is understood that the Japanese
government informed the foreign Office
that, In addition TO the forces already
landed in China, Japan has 2O.0OO troops
mobilized and ready for action At n mo-
mrnts notice. Great Britain Is now
awaiting answers from the chancellor
les to its proposals.
The British cabinet had long meet
ing this morning under the presidency
OF Lord Salisbury. and fully considered
the crisis.

A FRIGHTFuL EXPLOSION.
Two Men Killed and n Score Badly Injured as the Result of
 Thawing Dynamite.

Denver, Col, Nov. 21.-A special to the News from Cheyenne, Wyo., says:
 George Sanders and Pat McCue were killed and a number of other men se- riously injured by the explosion of dynamite at Elmore's grading camp on the Sherman Hill cutoff of the Union Pacific yesterday. One of the injured will die.
 Sanders and McCue were thawing sticks of dynamite around q camp fire, when the stuff exploded. Sanders was blown to pieces, and bits of his flesh were scattered in all directions. McCue's face was torn away, and he received internal injuries. The explo- sion tore a big hole in the ground and flying rocks did great damage. A narrow gauge engine and several cars which were standing on sidetrack near the camp fire, were demolished, and the engineer and fireman slight ly hurt. A score of laborers were standing around the camp at the time of the explosion, and it is a miracle that all were not killed. Their in- juries consist principally of broken arms and legs and bruises where the flying pieces of rock struck them.

An Old CAse Settled.

Judgment was given in federal court at Little Rock last week in a case which has been on the docket for seventeen years. having been filed on July 13. 1883. 1t was in the case of the Allenton (Pa.) National Bank vs. L. W. Bryan, of Pine Bluff, and the Judgment was for the plaintiff for S24,S72.S0. The suit was filed on the date named to recover the amount of about twenty different notes which the defendant had endorsed. which were made between December, 1877, and the date of the filing of the suit, 'ne amounts ranging from $100 to S1ooo. The total face value of the notes was s11,246.9O. but they bore ihterest at the rate of per cent per ""num during the intervening years. ana the total interest footed up the neat little sum of $13,625.90, or $1, ,339 more than the principal.
