LONDON IN GRASP
OF ITS DENSEST FOG.
Tie-Up of Business and Everybody
Has a Headache.

London, Dec. 23.-There is as yet no
sign of the lifting of the fog which
envelops the kingdom. Considering the
almost insuperable difficulties attend
ing locomotion of any form, the num-
Der of fatal accidents has been re-
markedly small. The congestion and
suspension of business are very gen.
eral. Places of amusement are almost
deserted, and shopkeepers are loudly
lamenting the absence of the usual
Christmas customers, instead of which
the big stores are inundated with or
ders by post, which cannot be executed
owing to the complete dislocation OF
all carrying business.
Railway traffic. both for long and
short distances, is almost paralyzed.
The Oceanic and Saxonia have been
unable to reach the landings at Liver
pool. The Cedric and the Pretoria, out
ward bound, are both delayed, and the
Minnehaha is waiting at the mouth of
the Thames, unable to proceed Only
two vessels entered the port of Lon
don yesterday, a condition of affairs
such as has mot occurred for twenty
years. r HA
The streets of London present re-
markable scenes Nothing is visible
except link boys torches and the oc-
casional flare of big creosote lights,
which the authorities are beginning to
employ to assist traffic. Phantom
voices mingle with the unceasing
whistling of omnibus and tramway
drivers, whilst at points like Trafal-
gar Square and the Hyde Park cor
ner are agglomerations of vehicles of
every description. held up by the po-
lice and close locked for hours. Near
ly everybody is suffering from head
ache, which the doctors attribute to
the fog.
At Birmingham, Sir Oliver Lodge is
making experiments with a model
electrical apparatus for the dispersal
of fog, which although successful, is
regarded as being too expensive for
application ON a larger scale.

BLACK FOR SENATOR.
Friend of the Ex-Governor Declares
He VIII Win.

New York, Dec 22.-Louis F. Payn,
one of ex-Gov. Blacks supporters in
the United States senatorship contest,
said to-day that Mr.. Black is a can
didate for Senator Depew's place. Mr..
Payn continued:
"Mr. Blacks friends knew all along
that he was in the field, but now he is
ready to come out openly and make
his fight for a seat in the Senate. 1t
is certain that he will be elected. All
this talk about the sentiment of the
party being for Depew is nonsense, and
that conference yesterday did not
amount to a row of pins"
Before leaving for Albany to-day,
Gov. Odell received the committee ap-
pointed by the conference called by
Senator Plat yesterday. After the
meeting, former Lieut.. Gov. Woodruff,
chairman of the committee, said:
THE Governor told the committee
that he was very glad to receive in
formation from every source with re-
gard to the sentiment of Republicans
throughout the state and of party
leaders here. He further said that he
was giving the matter the most care
full and constant consideration and his
whole desire was to bring about the
result that would best serve the in
terests of the Republican party"

SAYS HE WAS DRUNK
AND PAID TO SAY 1T,

London, Dec. 22.-The publication in
st. Petersburg of the statement that
Hull fishermen have voluntarily depos-
ed that foreign torpedo boats were
among the trawlers off Dogger bank
when the latter were fired upon by
ships of the Russian Baltic squadron
is probably nothing more than repe-
tition of similar statements emanating
from Hull and appearing in London
papers the last few days. These are
circumstantial, and it would certainly
appear to be true that some men of
the Gamecock feet have made some
statements before the Russian consul.
The name of only one of these has been
revealed. He is the boatswain of the
trawler Ava; and he said to-day that
he was induced to make the statement
while he was intoxicated. He admits
that he received a certain amount of
money, but now says the statement he
made is untrue. The exact tenor Of his
statements or any others has not been
revealed.

Columbia, s. c., Dec. 22.--J. H.
Adams, who was convicted Of the MUIR
der of James Jacques of colleton coun-
ty and sentenced to be hanged, and
who escaped some months ago, has

SEVEN MINERS
SUFFOCATED
FROM FIRE OUTSIDE MINE
SMOKE AND FLAMES WERE
DRAWN WITHIN.

Small House Caught Fire Near the
Entrance to a Soft Clay Mine Near
Bolivar, Pa.-Air Shaft Acted as
FIue, and n SuffOcating Mass OF
Smoke Was Drawn Within the
Mine-When Rescuers Arrived
Miners Had Been Overcome.
Bolivar Pa, Dec. 22.-Seven men
were suffocated to-day in the No. 2
soft clay mine of the Reese Hammond
Fire Brick Company near here. The
victims were Austrians. There were
about twenty-five men in the mine,
they were all in bad shape and two
are likely TO die.
The cause of the disaster was most
peculiar. A small building about 16 by
20 burned down at the mouth of the
mine. The air shaft from the working
to the surface some distance in the
mine acted as a sort of fiue and drew
into the drift the heat and smoke from
the fire, thus suffocating, the men
whose escape was shut off by the fire
at the opening.
AS soon as it could be done, the
burning shanty was torn away and res
cuers rushed into the mine, but all
ready five had succumbed to the heat
and smoke, and others were in a dying
condition. One more died while on the
way out and another after he reached
the fresh air.
The men were not burned in any
way.
Practically all of the men in the mine
were foreigners and those killed were
Austrians.
The property loss is trifling, not
amounting to more than 5000.
1t is supposed that the fire was
started by a miner who went out to
the shanty to eat his dinner. He is
thought to have upset lamp and ig-
nited some oil.

REMEDY WORSE THAN DISEASE.
How Health Omcer Immuned Him.
self From Smallpox.


From the Denver Republican.
j. X. Stuart, assistant health COM
missioner. is now thoroughly immune
from smallpox. Through following the
prescription OF one of the deputies in
the health commissioners office he
has rendered himself impervious to
attacks OF the loathsome disease. In
stead Of being grateful Stuart swears
dire revenge on his fellow employees.
Health Commissioner Sharpley the
other day Informed Stuart that he
would have to handle all the small
pox cases. The latter Immediately be-
gan TO inquire among the clerks how
he could protect himself against all
possibility of contagion.
Il know just one thing" said one.
get some bisulphite of carbon. Take
long smell OF II every three hourg.
After a week there will be absolutely
no danger Of your contracting small
pox, no matter how virulent the dis
ease may be-"
Now, bisulphide Of carbon smells
like the concentrated odor Of eggs de-
cayed for generations back. But Stu
art did not know that. He bought a
bottle Of the stuff and conscientiously
took a long sniff OF IL every three
hours. Finally the treatment became
too severe. He dashed the bottle on
the floor and shouted:
"Td rather have all the smallpox in
the world than take another smell Of
that stuff"
The laugh that followed revealed the
joke to the assistant health commits
sioner. Now he swears he will get
even.
THE first thing some OF these
practical jolxers know" he says. they
will find their pockets stuffed with
limburger cheese"

Glynn began personal investigation
to-day into the action Of Kingdom
Gould in drawing a revolver on a
crowd of Columbia University sopho-

be done with the sophomores partici-
pating in this affair. This will be an
nounced tomorrow.

KILLS A WOMAN
SHE USED IT AS A HAMMER
AND WAS MUTILATED BY THE En-
PLOsION THAT FOLLOWED.

Mrs. Barnes Had Been Given "A One
Founder Cartridge by Her Brother,
a Gunner in the Navy-She Was
Using IL as n Hammer While Ar

stood.
Detroit, Mich. Dec. 22.-Mrs. Thorn
as E. Barnes was killed to-day in
her home at 253 Pine street by the
explosion of ''one FOUNDER rapid fire
gun cartridge. which it is supposed
she was using for a hammer in the
Christmas preparation, for her two
baby girls.
How the explosion occurred is not
definitely known as she was alone with
the children, but it is said by friends
OF Mrs. Barnes that she had used the
cartridge for hammer at other times.
The cartridge had been in the possess
sion of the Barnes family for some
time and is said to have been given
to Mrs. Barnes by her brother, Will
liam Mayhem, gunner in the United
States navy, who is thought to be at
tached to the United States torpedo
station at Newport.
The woman's right hand was torn off
at the wrist. her left hand was mutt
lated, part of the cartridge penetrated
her breast and cut her heart and lungs
and her back was also cut by parts of
the shell.
Mrs. Barnes had left the children in
the kitchen so that they would not see
her preparing for the Christmas tree,
which was to be set up in the arch
way between the parlor and sitting
ROOM Evidently she had been rear
ranging the curtains of the archway so
that the candles of the tree would not
set the curtains on fire. Using the
cartridge for a tack hammer, she was
instantly killed by the explosion that
resulted. Neighbors found Mrs. Barnes
dead on the floor exactly at the spot
selected for the Christmas tree.
Mrs. Barnes and her husband had
lived here less than a year, coming
here from New York.
