Tha market was unnsnally dnll tha past
week. Kzeept the few ablpplng orders,
there were hardly any traaaaotlet a In ejed.
The velnme of business did scarcely reach
800 eases, oemprislog wary variety of seed
The tranaeotlene In Humatra were also of
small amount They summed wp, ail la
aU, te about 200 bale. Thequeatlenefhew
muuu eumaira ia ami in ine market aeema
te Intereet our merehanu very much. Of
oenrae It la impesilble te give oleae figures
en this aur-Jeer. The lewaat eatlmate of
the stock In band Is 10 000 balea ; tbe blgh
eat from 12,000 te 13,000. We are lnellned
te believe that of tbe 22,000 bales Impered
the past year, at lean 15,000 balea have
been consumed. Tbla wenld laava tha
ateck at 7,000 bales. But there have been
Imported since January about 4,000 balea,
which would leave the ateck en hand at
11,000 balsa.
Business In Havana waa also a little
baeKward, It did net oeme np te a thou
sand bales, Which la generally a fair average
of .the weekly transactions. Newa from
the Havana fields sis net very premising.
Although the new crop looked very favor
able np te the middle of January, and
cutting had alrsady begun, heavy and
oeaUnnoua ralna foreed tbe plantera te die
continue cutting, and spoiled great portions
of the tobaeeo already cut. It la reported
that these untimely ralna have drenched
tha tobaeeo te a great extent, reducing
materially lta body and consistency, and
converting it into a washed-out Crep similar
te tha '78 orep wbtcb is net ia favorable
remembrance of the manufacturers. Mere
favorable weather, however, haa ast in,
aoeordlng te later leperta.
If anything, a meat premising espert
trade ean be predicted for tbla year. There
ssems te be no doubt of tbe complete
failure et the Brazil orep ; and when it la
considered that Hamburg alone imported
during the paat year 140,000 aeroens of
Brazil, It la easy te figure ent tbat it will
take a geed sized amount of our American
aeed leaf te replace the missing quantity
of Brazil In the European market. Hap
pily or ahall we rather aay unhappily
enr '88 aeed oreps can furnish mere tnan tbe
required quantity for expert,
from the Tobacco Leif.
There la very little change In the market
thla week. It still continues nnusally
quiet. This, we believe, la dee te the faet
tnat many of enr packers and dealers are
davotleg mere attention te tbe new orep of
tobacco tban tbe ateck en band. It waa
rumored tbat a sale of larva alze waa
eeneutnmated this week In '7 Pennsylva
nia bread leaf, but we failed te learn of the
partleaoenneoted with aald reported sale.
The tobaeco most aeugbt after new la old

The faet cannot be denied tbat bandlera
of cigar leaf tobacco last week did In tbe
aggregate a very encouraging business,
especially In tbe number et casea aeld. It
Is trne tbe buslnesa is net profitable; but It
Is moving steadily. Old tobacco or every
deaorlptien is gradually going off tbe
market, and aa tbe amount In store la moon
less than haa bsen known ter many yeats,
while tbe ateck will be needed, the balance
of the year muat de better for holders.
Bumatra sells freely. Ot course when
tbe price la se high, mere la expected et it.
Havana still oentalna the quantity te
make It readily sell net ae profitably, but
uniformly free and easy.

whleh he relinquished all claim en her es
calate, and covenanted te give berfGOO
per annum alter ble death, in full et all
claim by her upon his estate.
There waa no atatement or discussion aa
te the meana of either, but Mr. Neely called
in aeteral of the prospective brlde'a male
relations, and tbe paper waa thoroughly
explained. He declared tbat If abe did net
algn It there would be no wedding, and
attar aeveral hours consideration abe tin ally

together for ten years. Then Neelydled
and the widow attempted te set the contract

Justice Green en Monday delivered, In
the eaae of the city of Reading agsinst
Savage, the premised opinion of the sa
premn court explaining why It recently
reversed lis own previous decision in th
ssme case and held constitutional the pro pre
vision In the set etMsy 13, 1874, tbat "any
city et third elasa, or any city of less popu
lation than 10,000 Inhabitants, heretofore
Incorporated may become anbjeet te tbe
provtalen of thla aet, oevsrlng cities of th
third plass te ba herainsftsr Incorporated ;
end the msyer and oeunolla of aald oily may

sltneugb in another ease It had bald uncon
stitutional, aa special leglalatlnn, a pi e vi
sion In tbe aei et Mar eh 13, 1875, " tbat no
city et the third elaaa nor any oily et leas
population tban 10,000 Inhabitants hereto
fore Incorporated shall become subject te
the foregoing prevision of tbls aet until tba
same are accepted by an ordinance dnly
pasaed," ,
Tba Judge saya of the nneoaaUtnUeaal
provisien: "In lta literal ttrmstbls la a
disabling and an eioludlngenaetmeat. Ne
city et th third claas, nor any oily of less
population than ten thousand Inhabitants,
previously Inoerparated, could become
subject te the previsions of tbe act until the
passage and approval et an appropriate
ordinance, although it might have already
entitled itself te a place among the cities of
the third class by complying with tbe act
et May 23, 1871. The act of 1875 therefore
had no application te any of these cities In
the first inatanoe. Uenee there was net
snd there oeuld net be any elsss et cities
cevered by the description contained In tha
proviso until a elaaa wss msde up by indi
vidual aoceaalen. Aa te all theia whleh
had previously been Incorporated, a denble
acoaptaneo was msde necessary flrat, of the
aet of 1871, and second, of the act of 1875.
Tbeae oitlea whleh did accept under both
ants would thus become a elaaa by tbem
sulves, and that elaaa might bs limited te
one or a few. This result msde the legls legls
latlen local, and brought It In ocntllet with
tbe seventh section of the third article of
the constitution."
Turning te tbe constitutional act of 1871,
be says: "Tbls Is an enabling and In no
sense a disabling enactment. Prevleua
acctlena had provided for a elaaa of cities te
be called cities of tbe third elass. Inte this
elaaa It waa made competent ter any city
having the requisite population, and alae
ler any city having lea tban 10.000 In
habitants, but all of whleh bad been
provleusly Incorporated, te oeme, ae as
te be geverned by tbeae previsions
fthleh relate te tbe gevarnmsat of
cities et the third elaaa, by puraulng
Iho directlena of tbe 57 in eeotlen.
When the requlrementa of tbat section ar
complied wltn, such pre-existing elty
ti-rea lute'tha third class et cities wbiwe
future incorporation has been provided for,
snd beoemes a constituent part thereof. Ne
city Is prevented from doing Ibis. These
that de net embrace the opportunity simply
remain aa.they were before, and all that
dwembrace Itbosemo membera of a elasa
whose exlatecce, and nil tbe element of
whose government, are regulated by gen
eral law.
"Tuerels no possibility of snyexsrclsa
of tbe powers or privileges canferred by
the flftr-seventh section, which can werx
rfllrtnatlvely a local or apeclal remit.
Whatever la doue by virtue el this section
aluiply converts that which waa or might
be local or special Inte that wbleh la gen

ing the provllena et the section and we are
therefore el opinion Ibat It la net In oan ean

arisen In our own minds respecting tbe
corrcctnets of our iirat decision of tbe
present case we ordered its reargument of
our own motion, ae tbat there might be a
further consideration of tbe question in
volved. After a mere exhaustive argument
and a deliberate review et our former
Judgment we are eatlatled it waa a mlatake

About tea aalnntes before 1 o'clock ou
Monday a frightful explosion occurred la
tba sqnlb factory of Jehn B. Powell, at
Plymouth, near Wllkeebarre. Tba factory
employed eighly-three girls, but work
being eeaaewhat alack, all ware idle exeept
about flfteen. Of tbese eleven were In tha
factory at the tlrae of tha explosion, eating
dinner. Foreman Geerge k Reese was
staadlagat tba stove when all atoneehe
heard a fearful nek, aad waa almost
uimuvu wna smeac ana names;
Ha mads a man for tbe deer laadlagte
tba room where the girls worked, but
before ha could" reach it a second explosion
saera tarriBe than the first shattered tha
building te pieces and kaoekad him down
a trap deer Inte the cellar beneath. A third
explosion followed within a la w seconds of
the ether two, and whan tba ameks deered
away nothing remained bnt a beep et Mas
lag ralna, under wbleh were buried every
soul in tba building at tha time with tba
exception of Foramen Reese, wbe erawled
from under th timber and waa lakes
borne badly burned.
The following are tba names of th dead :
Jt. ld 18 Maegla Ly neb, aged
21( Hattle Jenes, aged 10; Oleddla Reese,
aged 15j Mary Walters, aged 17; Maggie
RlehBKi, aged 17; Mary A, Lake, agcTl7;
Ruth Powell, aged 10; Esther Powell, aged
2U; Jeeaia CenneU, aged 10; Charlett
Humphries.
Immediately alter tha explosion tba fire
alarm was Bounded and the firemen ar
rived ea tbe scene In a abort time, bnt tba
keas being tee abort, the work et subduing
the llamas was vary mneh retarded. When
at length tha lira was get under control
and tba bodies et the dead war taken out,
they presented a frightful speotaela. Net
one of the eleven charred and blackened
bodies oeuld be reoegnltsd wltb tbe excep
tion et Bather Powell, whose friends
ldantlnsda poeketbook aha earrled, and
wbleh waa found In ber drear,
A ene attar another et the bodies waa
disengaged from tbe smoking rulna and
earrled out the seens waa heartrending la
tha extreme. Despairing mothers threw
thsmsslves betide the blackened bodies of
What they annoesed wsra their danvhtam
aad, with tears of angniah streamlag down
their cheeks, tremblingly aeugbt bare and
there about tbe body ler aema mark tbat
might lead te IdeoUfleailon. Btreng anon
turned away te hide tbelr tears while little
staters and nrethera rent tba air wltherles
for their lest ones. When all the bodies
were recovered tbey war taken t Wil
liams' undertaking establishment, where
they were laid In a row. aide bv aide, and
all tba afternoon orewda of aorrew-atrloken
rslaUve bent ever the disfigured remalaa
la search of tbelr loved ones.
The building waa a two-story frame
atrneture, and owing te the oembnatlbie
nature of tha content burned ae fiercely
that esespe waa Impossible. A amalt party
et mtnsrs, wbe were passleg near by at tha
time of tbe brat explosion, bearing the
agenising shrlsks of the Inmates, rnibed at
onea te the rescue, but before they reached
tbe building a second explosion seemed te
lift tt bodily Inte the air and crush It te tbe
ground, a mesa of breksn Umbsts, through
which th dimes leaped ber aad there se
hotly aa te render any nearer epproeeh
dangerous te life.
Jeb Thomss, living about a hundred
yards away,wae tba first te reach tha seene.
Ha ran out of tbe house In tha direction of
th factory. He reached It J net la tlm te
see tbs frightened fseee of adeaaa young
women at the windows seresmlng for help,
when the whole building aeemed te buret
asunder, tba sldewslls fail out and tha reef
came down with a crash, burying beneath
It every one of tba lamatae.
Tba bnUdlag was used ter tba tnenufee
tur et tower' squibs, whleh are small
Saper or etrsw tubes about six Inches long,
lied wltb powder, and used by the miners
te fire off blasts In the mines. Tha buslaaaa
Is extremely dangereu, aad aeetaaltat
tha utmost vlgtlsaoe te guard agalast ex
plosion. Ordinarily bat a email supply of
powder Is left la tha faotery proper, tba
greater portion of the supply being kept la
a magazine aeme dlstenee away. Tba
terrlue toree of tba explosion, however,
seems te Indicate that an unusually large
amount of powder muat bave bsen atered
in the building.
Tbls Is one et tbe ssddest aoeldant that
bave happened In that locality alnee the
great Avendala disaster In 1809. The whole
population or tbe town seems te be In tha
streets and the awful audden ending of se
many young llvss seems te bave bung a
pail et grief ever the wboleeommualty.
Foreman Reese says there waa a pet et
sulphur en tbe stove, which waa uaed te
dip the squibs Inte, tbe miner when nslng
tbsm lighting tbe sulphur end. The pet
must have boiled ever and Ignited some
loose powder, wbleh tired tbe kegs.
