As Gilbert eutereil the west yard of the

the description this man must have been Alie
lluzzard himself. Llpplncett says net, how hew how

asked w hat he was doing in the vurd. Alter
being told that he was waiting en it freight
train, Gilbert inude himself known, and said
he would arrest him If he attempted te beard
near. At this point the dctoctlve noticed u
man en a freight car mid called te him te
come down. UN order wus obeyed, uud as
the man alighted Gilbert saw he hud a small,
black satchel lu his hand. Mcunwhlle the
man supposed te have been Abe lhuiard

nothing nud being unknown te Gilbert, Ida

The elllcer asked the man who hud ue ue ue
costed what he had In his sitchel. "None
or your business," was the uusvver. " I'll
ill nke It iny business," said Gilbert, walking
towards him. Again refusing te show the
eatcnta of the bag lie was arrested and taken
ta the efllcQ In the yard, and thence te the
lockup. Here the satchel was opened and
found In contain 1 brnss nnd Si Mlver
wnlches, 'i geld nnd Mhcr wntcli chains nnd

shock of the explosion was felt by residents
of Husten read, between St. Pancras church
and Judd street. Thorallwaynmsthe whole
length of nuslen raid, underneath the road
way. A crowd speedily collected at a vent
shaft nt tlie head of Ossulten .street, from
which, at ihe tlme of Iho explosion, a quan
tity of smoke Issued. As seen as posslble
nfler the explosion n numlteref jiorleif wcre
sent te the spot with lamps and appliances
for clearing the line. Up te the present tlme
nothing has been found. The resldcnlsln

The shock overthrew several wayfarers en
Kusten read. It wns with great difficulty
that horses en the read wcre restralncd from
rimnlngnwny. The gaslights In thoOewpr
street station wero extinguished. The ticket
colleclor In the station was thrown from Ids
box nnd the engineer working the Incandes
cent olectrlo light machinery was thrown
from his seat a distance of three or reur font
landing en his face. The lights in ether
trains in the tunnel wero extinguished by
the explosion, l'he )asscngerf wero great ly

prestrate forms of persons prostrated by tlie
shock.
Tlie houses lu the vicinity were shaken uud
the roadway oscillated. Twe trains wcre

sinn,audin boththelightsvvcro extinguished.
Windows wero shattered and the framewerk
of soveral carrlage doers wcre smashed.
Thogreon, red ami white lights at the front

The tlcket collector at tlie Gewer street
station describes the report of the explo

or field artillery. Tlie point where the
the oxplosien occurred directly under the

therefore, have been either dynnmite or gun

Just been complelotl by Mr, Ja.. M. Swank,
secretary of the Anterican Iren and Sleel
association. He says t
" In the United Slates the demand for all
leading articles of Iren and steel was les in

bar Iren, fewer sleel rails, less steel rer mis
cellaneous purposes, and fewcr kegs of nalK
The causes or this iIpcIIiie in demuuil have
been se often referred te that we de
net heed te repeat thorn. Prices full ns the
demand recoiled and only In steel rails has
there lieen any recovery from the lowest

liar Iren at Philadelphia sold at two cents per
pound In January, but It has for many
months sold at ene nnd clght-tcuths of a tent
tier pound, or Slafc! per gross ten. This Is a
lower prlce than we quoted during the undo
years, except for n short tlme in 1870. The
store prlce or cut nails In Philadelphia was
f 2.C0 per keg in January, from which there
was u steady decline te t2.10 in Oclelicr,
which Is the present price. The prlce during
the panic years did net fall se low until
March 1S70, but from this low prlce there was
a speedy recovery."
"Taking It all in all the year 1831 was a
1ml year ler tlie American Iren trade, render
ing necessary a general reduction of wages,
and the closing of many manufacturing es
tablishments. Tlionevvyo.tr opens with no
promlse or Immcdiate Improvement. If the
farmers of the West could dlspoie of their
wheat and corn, and ethor staples, at higher

an Increased demand and better prices for
Iren and fuel. Hut until the farniers' pros pres pros
pects lmprove w e can net soe better days for
our Iren and steel manufacturer!!, nor for
seuin ether manufacturers."
" The country nt large cannot be pros
perous, If the i.irmers in Uureixi are net.
The year which has Just ceased was ene of
steadily declining prosperity for the Iren
trade, The Iren trade of Great Urltaln has
especially suffered mid Is at the present tlme
In a very depressed and panicky condition.
Production and prices have both greatly do de do
cllued and real stagnation prevails" lu many
districts with many thousands of tverjemen
In actual want. Tlie production of pig Iren
In the United States last j-ear is estimated te
