Itemta & Brown,

There is in Philadelphia a clothing house which has no double in all the
world. The world is full of clothing houses ; and it is a geed deal te say that
one is unlike all the rest.
First, in its dealing ; and it is surprising that ene house should differ
much from another. Selling clothing is se simple a matter, that it is likely,
one would suppose, te be done in very much the same way in Philadelphia,
New Yerk and Londen. But Philadelphia is ahead ; and, curiously enough,
one house in Philadelphia is ahead of all the rest.
Te be ahead in dealing is te deal en a higher plane, in a mero liberal
way, te give the buyer mere well founded confidence without less of, the mer
chant's safety. This Philadelphia clothing heuse says te a stranger : "We
want te deal with exact justice. We want what belongs te us, viz., a fair
profit ; and we want you te have what belongs te you, viz., a liberal money's
worth. Our way te arrive at this result is te mark a price en everything we
sell, which piica ij absolute ; and te let you buy what you like, go away and
think the bargain ever, and come and trade back, if you want te. We find by
experience that this liberality is harmless te us. Of course, you like it. And
it makes quick and .cady dealing. Wc don't want you te bring back what
yen buy it would cost us money every time ; but we wenld rather you would
bring back than keep, what you don't like. Se, wc try te see that you get
at first what you will like the better the mere you knew of it. This is really
the whole philosophy of our dealings." Is it any wender that no ether clothing
house in this city, or New Yerk, or Londen, deals in the same way ?
Second, in its goods the amount and variety of them. There are ether
lienscs where excellent clothing is kept, and a great deal of it ; but thcre is
none, anywhere, that keeps se much. The dealing related above has wen the
largest trade the world has yet seen. Te supply such a trade great quantity
and variety of clothing are required ; and these in turn incrcase the trade, bc bc
cause everybody i'ikes te cheese out of many things, rather than out of few.
This is the country of ready-made clothing. Great Britain makes the
most of any European country; but thcre is .net in all Londen any clothing
business a quarter as large as that of Oak Hall. New Yerk has sevcral large
clothing businesses ; but no one nearly equal te that of Oak Hall ; Bosten
likewise.
Loek back twenty years ! Have wc done you geed service, or net? But
that IV net what we had in mind ; we were thinking of the clothes you are go
ing te bny te-day. Shall wc sell them :'

MONDAY EVENING, NOV. 15, 1880,
THE COLLIERY EXPLOSION.
KESCUK OF THE BODIES PREVENTED
BY FIRE AND CUOKE DAMP.
One .Miner Rescuing Twe Persons Alive,
' Whom He Afterward Discover
ed te be Ills Father and Sen
Three- Beys' Escape.
The first indication of the Stcliarten ac
cident en the surface was the blowing off
the top of the fan pit, followed by a great
gust of wind, but no report was heard.
The utmost precautions have been taken
by the management, and the explorers are
all picked men under guidance of cool,
clear-headed men. The equipments of
the miners were excellent probably as
geed as any n the continent. About
40,000 had lately been expended iu new
machinery, and it was considered a very
safe pit, as the workmen could walk out
of it.
At 11 J Friday night Mr. Gilpin, govern
ment inspector of mines, and the local
managers, with a gang of men, went
down the shaft and made a short explora
tion. They found the atmosphere a little
clearer than it had been during the day,
and the party were enabled te penetrate
further along the main railway te the
south. They found the bodies of thrce
men and quite a number of dead horses.
Twe of the men's bodies they were- able
te take with them te the surface, but the
third was se tightly jammed into a heap
of fallen timber aud rubbish that te at
tempt te extricate it would only be in
curring danger uselessly, as the rubbish
would certainly fall upon any one touch
ing it. The choke damp was still tee thick
te allow the party te carry their explora
tions very far, but in ene of the beards or
starts from the main railway a faint smell
of smoke- and a slightly warmer atmo
sphere could be detected, which showed
that it was net imprebable that lire still
remained iu the mine. When the party
came te the surface quite a crowd had col
lected te hear the latest news. A stillness
fell ever the gathering as the two dead
bodies were carried away into a temporary
dead house. Nearly all the crowd had
companions, with whom they had worked
in safety and in danger for many years,
and some had a father, a brother, or a son
among the missing ; yet no unnecessary
demonstration of grief was made, nor was
there any rush te ascertain whose bodies
they were. All acted with praiseworthy
common sense, evidently feeling that this
was a time for action, net sentiment. One
of the bodies was identified as that of Mc
Gillivray, but the ether was se charred
and disfigured as te be unrecognizable.
The managers retired with the understand
ing that they would meet again at C o'clock
in the morning among the workmen.
At five o'clock the miners began te as
semble in the waiting rooms at the mouth
of the shaft. Seme el thcin had been
down the day before near the south side
when the accident occurred, aud were
computing notes. One told hew, in try
ing te get te the shaft, he stumbled across
the prostrate form of an old man. He
stepped, and calling some ethers running
by te his assistance, get the old man into
the cage te go te surface, and then looked
about for ether unfortunates. He found
a little boy apparently dead ; but examin
ation showed that he was only iusensible,
and he get the little fellow and the old
man te the surface te find that he had res
cued his own son and his peer old father
The speaker went en te say iu a lower
voice : "My brother Charley is still down
there, and the old lady will break her
heart." In another building close by a
swarthy man, with oil-stained clothes, was
trimming the safety lamps and lighting
tlicm. This is a job of the utmost import
ance. The lives of the miners depend en
the care with which the task is performed.
This man was expressing his gratitude
that he was net among the lest, for he said
he only left the bottom of the pit a min
ute before the explosion. " Had I been
down when it took place," he said, "I
could net have gene very fast with this,"
and he held up a hitherto unnoticed wood
en leg his natural limb had been lest by
an accident in the pit years age.
After some delay a party consisting of
Messrs. James Hudsen, Giccncr, and two
or three ether picked men, went down into
the shaft. The party was able te go far
ther into the galleries than en the previous
night, as the choke damp "was clearing
away. A mau who the night befere
thought he detected signs of fire, again in
vestigated the same place, aud, geiug fur
ther into the passage with Mr. Greener,
seen found unmistakable indications that
he was right. A little farther en a brick
stepping, closing another unused passage,
was found, aud hear a dense black smoke
was coming out with a rear like escaping
steam. Thotwemcnat once ran back te
the rest of the party, and, as all were new
in the greatest danger, they get te the pit
bottom and ascended te the surface. The
local manager, the government inspector,
and several of the evermen and old miners
were called te a meeting in the company's
eilice, aud a plan of the mine was spread
out en a table. The location of the fire
was fixed as well as possible, and the best
means of action discussed. It was finally
determined te flood the portion of the mine
whence the fire seemed te proceed, as, if
prompt means were net taken, further ex
plosions wcic net unlikely te occur at any
moment with consequences which might
be serious en the surface.
All night a ceaseless tapping of small
hammers was heard iu one of the carpenter
shops. The place has been temporarily
converted into an undertaker's shop, cof
fins being made there' by scores, that no
delay be occasioned if mero bodies were
found. Since yesterday it has been as
certained that ethers are missing, and the
number lest may be as high as fifty. -AH
the available carpenters in the works had
been put en the job, as it was hoped that
the exploring party might be able this
morning te recover many of the bodies,
but the dangerous state of the mine will
new render that impessible for many days
and perhaps weeks. A large wooden
building close by the main shaft has been
converted into a temporary dead house.
A huge platform is erected in it, breast
high, se that thcre will be ample room for
bodies as soeu as found. A little knot of
men were scattered around the deer, from
among whom an old man entered, and
viewed a body which could net be recog
nized the night befere. He at ence identi
fied it by the clothes as that of his son-in-law,
Jeb Skinner. The beets and legs are
charred, one hand roasted, and face burned
black, and the top of the head crushed te
a jelly. The dther body McGillivray's
is but little disfigured, death having
evidently been caused by cheke damp.
Of these who have been rescued alive,
William Dunbar was found lying in bed
in a semi-conscious state. He is the only
rescued man who was seriously injured,
lie was a lamp cleaner and had a cabin at
the bottom of the pit. He is unable te
speak long enough te tell his story, but
his wife says?, se far a3 she can gather
from what he said, that he was in his
cabin at the time of the explosion. He
saw fire burst ia the back deer, and he
rushed out and fell ou his face. His oil
soaked clothing had, however, caught fire
and was burning, when his son, in coming
te the pit bottom, found him, and, extin
guishing his garments, with some assist
ance get him te the surface. The old man
is badly burned ou the back and right
side, and en the chest and nose. One arm
was se badly burned that the skin peeled
and slipped down ever his hand. He did
net complain of suffering much, which is
a bad sign, but has frequent periods of de
lirium. Ilis recovery is considered very
doubtful. He is 70 years of age, and has
been engaged in the mining business for
forty-seven years. He had two sons in the
mine with him and ene is among the lest.
All the ether rescued men were found te
be out of danger, and able te converse
about their escape, hut all told the same
tale. They had been suddenly struck
down and knew nothing of the cause.
Several theories of the cause of the acci
dent are taiKcu et among tne workmen in
the village, but none of them arc founded
en anything mero than mere conjecture,
Seme of the escapes were very narrow.
Three little boys, working near the en
trance te the south side were jammed iu a
heap against an arch by a coal box, and
were found thcre insensible, while a horse
close by was killed aud completely roasted
The body of the horse and the coal box
had kept the ferce of the explosion and
the flames from the lads. The flames
seemed te have jumped from several yards
inside of the south entrance riirlit across
the pit bottom and struck a number of
horses several yards inside of the north
gallery, killing and roasting them. Yet
there are no marks of fire in the interval
between the two points.
There is great mourning in the cottages,
the blinds being down in every third or
fourth house. Many of theso thus sud
denly made widows have large families of
young children, and if generous assistance
is net extended te thorn, their sufferings
this winter will be severe indeed. Werk
has been almost wholly suspended in the
mines since the disaster, and measures arc
being taken te Heed that part of the pit
where the fire is supposed te be raging.
The pit is new flooded and all danger is
considered ever, but no mere bodies can
be recovered.
A Letter Frem Mr. Hewitt.
II e Accuses Justice Davis or Attacking Htm
In the Direct face of the Uvldeucc " A
Judge Who Forgets that When He
JUeceuin a Judge lie Should
Ccase te be a Partisan."
I have just read the opinion of Judge
Davis in rcfcrcnce te the se-called ' ' Meroy' '
or " Chinese " letter. Acensidcrable por
tion of this opinion is deveted te my cvi cvi
dence given under oath, en subpoenas
served upon me both by the prosecution
and the defence. The judge who sits
upon the bench is supposed te knew the
evidence which has been given by a wit
ness. Certainly he should cxamine it be
fore he undertakes te make statements as
te its nature aud te draw conclusions from
it. That Judge Davis has net performed
this flirty the following comparison of his
statement with my testimony will serve
te prove :
Judge Davis says that Mr. Hart " was
net satisfied te publish it (the letter) upon
the examination which he and his editor
ial staff could make, and he therefore took
the letter and cnvclope te the Democratic
national committee for inspection. lie
thcre saw Mr. Hewitt, Mr. Itanium, 3Ir.
Randall and ethers. Mr. Hart showed
them the papers and said iu substance
that he did net want te publish the letter
if it was a forgery, but if genuine he did,
and wanted no ether papers te get ahead
of him in the publication. He says it was
examined by all the persons named, but
Mr. Hewitt made the closest and most
careful examination, aud spent fully a half
hour in its examination, and hepronetfuccd
the letter both body and signature, te be
in the handwriting of Gen. Garfield. Pho
tographs were then taken for the use of
the national committee, aud Mr. Hart re
turned with the letter te his office. But
his mind was net fully satisfied, and se,
late in the evening he sought and found
Mr. Hewitt again, and was again answered
that he (Hewitt) had examined a large
number of Garfield's letters, and that the
Meroy letter was genuine, and this was
clinched by impressing Mr. Hart's mind
with the idea 'that he would have made it
a forgery if he could.' It is net very sur
prising that Mr. Hart, with the usual anx
iety of newspaper publishers te be ahead
of their neighbors, should have published
the letter without further inquiry, but it is
astounding that a man of known sagacity,
of great experience in public affairs, and
who is supposed te have a decent respect
for truth and justice, thought
it just te press and caltsc its publication
without first removing all doubt as te its
character."
New the simple and unanswerable reply
te all this statement and the extraordinary
comments in which Judge Davis has seen
fit te indulge is that the letter had al
ready been publithcd in Truth before I had
ever seen Mr. Hart or the original letter
or any copy of it. This fact Judge Davis
must have knewu when he penned the
above lines', because I had sworn in his
presence, and after cress-examination by
Mr. Stoughten, in which Mr. Bliss inter
vened te verify the dates, that the inter
view with Mr. Hart aud the examination
of the letter took place en the 20th of
October, after its publication in TrulTt, and
net before. I de net knew whether Mr.
Hart made the mistake in his testimony
as te the date, but if he did, thcre is no
possible justification for Judge Davis te
base a statement en this mistake in order
te attack from the bench the character of
a citizen, after thomistakehad been point
ed out and the date had been fixed be
yond the possibility of all controversy. .
While 1 was writing tins statement I
sent a messenger te Mr. Hart te ascertain
whether he had ever made any declaration
at variance with the facts as I have stated
them. Mr. Hart, replies that he " never
said, testified, or thought that Mr. Hewitt
or any ene connected with the natieual
committce saw the letter in advance of the
publication of the text of the letter in
Truth en the 2eth of October."
New, as te the miner assertions con
tained in the abeve extract, I never pro
nounced the " body and signature " te be
in the handwriting of Gen. Garfield. On
the contrary, in the presence of Mr. Hart
and all the gentlemen present. I declared
the body of the letter net te be in the
handwriting of Gen. Garfield, but that I
believed the signature te be his autograph.
I de net think that Mr. Hart has given
any testimony te the contrary, but if he
has it is an error which can be shown by
the testimony of all the gentlemen who
were present.
As te the second interview, in the even
ing, it took place after my speech at Chick-
cring hall, when I was exhausted, and
took no ether part in the discussion but te
reaffirm my belief in the genuineness of
the signature. I did net tell Mr. Hart
that " I would have made it a forgery if I
could," nor has he or any one clse testified
that I ever used this expression.
With this statement I leave it te the
public te judge hew utterly baseless is the
lbllewiug judgment of the court.
" However much an equitable division
may Ieave for ethers, upon Mr. Hewitt must
rest the larger share of responsibility for
the first publication 6f the base and shame
ful forgery." And also hew far Judge
Davis is justified in his apology for at
tacking a witness who was put upon the
stand against his will, and forced te "tell
the truth, the whele ' truth, and nothing
Dut tne trutn." lie says: "And when
ever a person connected with the offenee
is sworn as a witness in its investigation,
his testimony is subject te the criticism
that belongs te accomplices accessories."
Would it net have been better if the judge
had stated the testimony as it was, before
subjecting it te criticism ?
Lastly, Judge Davis scorns te justify his
onslaught en my private character by the
assertion that " he (I) went en, with his
associates, scattering the forgery broad
cast throughout the country,
and that, se far as the envelope is con
cerned, the lithographs sent forth as fac
similes were net true copies of se much of
the cnvclope as was given. The first lith
ographs published show truly that the
Washington posteffico stamps did net con
tain the abbreviation Jan. and the figure
23. In the lithographs and fac-similies
afterward used these things appear in plain
and clear types and figures."
be iar as 1 am concerned, it would per
haps be a sufficient answer te say that I
never circulated any lithographs or fac
similes of cither kind ; but in order te
show with with what reckless eagerness
the charge is made, I state that I am as
sured by the person who did send out the
fac-similcs that only the first or accurate
ones were circulated, and that the second
or amended fac-similcs were only publish
ed in Truth, ever which it is net pre
tended that the committce had any con
trol. I forbear te make any-cemmentary what
ever upon the extraordinary character of
the opinion produced by Judge Davis. It
is enough for me te point out that the
foundation upon which he has built up the
attack upon my character is false in fact,
and with this demonstration the conse
quences can only be damaging te him
self. I was prepared for this attack by the
evidently pre-arranged preliminary state
ment of Mr. Stoughten, in the Times of
yesterday, te which I published a reply in
the Times of te-day, and I am new forced
te believe that thcre is a concerted scheme
te attempt te break me down in this com
munity where I iiave lived for mere than
fifty years, and te which I can mero safely
trust for a just judgment than te a judge
of the supreme court who forgets that
when he becomes a judge he should ccase
te be a J irtisan.
