Quay and Cameren Have a Conference and Agrcti teTHI tbe OfBce Mr.Jtcn bcI Forward Ilia Resignation. The contest .for (he eollecfershlp of this revenue district wan ended en Friday, by the announcement thnt the name or 8am Matt Fridy, would le sent te the president te imceced Gee. W. Hcnsel, whose resignation retched Fresldent Harrison this morning. Tbe contest Just ended wan a bitter one and has been In progress for several months. The name of the following par ties used In connection with the posi tion from this county were Lewis S. Hart man, Andrew J. KaulTman, Cel. 1). Fnnk Kshleman, Samuel M. Myers and Sam . MattKridy. The ether leading candidates were Mr. Woith, of, Lebanon, and Mr. Weed, of Huntingdon. Mr. liartmait had behind him the Stalwart clement of the Republican naitv in this county, lie was opposed by the Quay leaders, nud Messrs. Martin, Orient nndMent r.er made numerous pilgrimages te Quay's residence and headquarters, te Im- frts uren him tlin necessity of his defeat ng Hnrtman for the position. Senater Quay did net need much urging, for he well knew that all the political thrashings he get In this county ttie past few years could be traced te llartmatrs management. Senater Quay cniled upon Senater Cameren and mild te him that whlte the revenue collcctership was ene of his per quisites he would net agree te the appoint ment of Hnrtman, and if he was named for tbe position be would consider it a personal insult. Seiaer Cameren did no' care te In ur the enmity of Quay, and while pretending te be friendly te llartman he threw him oveibjard. Mr. llartman was u-kel te name a tmrty for the position, but he declined doing se. Messrs. Kauflman and Eshlemnn had strong backing, and their names were con sidered for a time as compromise candi dates. They were finally drepped as net being available, and becanse tne appoint ment of cither would net roslero harmony in the party. The name of . Samuel M. Myers, was also considered and for a time his show was geed. Mr. Skiles could have had the position If he would liuvn said se, but he mould net accent 1C Mr. Fridy started in the canvass with an advantnge. He was better known te Sen Sen aeor Quay tlinn any of the ether candidates, and was 'for a number efycars chief clerk In the state department under the Quay regime. He also had behind him politi cians who trained In the Cameren clan for years. Alljthe pnpers were completely "off" en this appointment. The corresiiondeutB of Philadelphia dally papers had ene part collector ene day anil another jmrty tbe scceud day and se they kept en until tbe list was exhausted, when they began anew. The tight for the position became se bitter between the rival tactiens and politicians that Senater Cameron decided te appoint Mr. Werth, of Lebanon county. That ml sod a howl among the Lebanon politi cians because they did net want Werth, and he then decided te appoint Mr. Weed, of Huntingdon. He was ugrecd upon for the ofllce a few days age and when Quay was informed of Cameren's conclusion he called upon him at Denegal. On Thursday Quay induced Cameren te withheld nam ing a man for a day or two and in the mean time notified Martin, Mentzcr and Orlest of what had been decided upon. These parties or their agents siw Quay and told him it would never de te let the appointment go out of the county and another conference) was held at Denegal en Friday. At tills conference Quay induced Cameren te drop Weed and nppei nt Fridy. The appointment is a great victory for the Quay forces in this county anil will give them prostlge In the next prlmaiy electleu, providing the disappointed appli cants for position, which will he many In mi nber, fin net desert that faction. Air. Frldy heard that he was agreed upon when en the read te this citythls morning. He knew nothing definite, had net received elllcial notice that he was tgrccd iimui, but hoped that it was true. KKKTt'll or THK COLLI! TOIl. The new collector is well-known In l.an l.an rnster county, where he was I onion March .1, 1837, in West Hempfield township. He first held ndlre in 1N2, when lie went te Washington as a clerk in the war depart ment. He runalnel t ur J until lSi!.', when he returned te Lmitnsler county. In ISfiT, he was appointed te a poiitleu in the state dcpirtmcnt, u.'id he rem lined In that ollleo until 1nJ, when lie resigned te take the ofilee of prnlNonetary of Laneastereeunty, te w hlrli he hai! been' elected. He served three years as prnt Monetary, and retired In 1SK.1. He was net In public otlleo until Jehn V. Mentsrer was elected prothenotary In 1S8C, since which tlme he has been a clerk In that etitic Mr. Friday is ene of the best penman in the date, "and is courteous and oblig ing elllcial. In politics lie was for in my j cars a leading (actor In the 8 alwait fii lien, but for the past few yeirs he has l ejn identified witli the Meuuer wing tf the larty. It Is said that his appointment was made conditionally upon his recegnising all fnr fnr tlens in his appointments. UKITINU I'KIIIIONS HK.VUY.

The Pittsburg Ptfpntcti says of the acci dent at llraddeck : It seems I hat Furnace C had net been In very geed order for obeut 40 hours pro pre pro cedlnit the accident. The metal in the 4 bottom of the crucible had beceme chilled, niiu wiii'ii inu iiiiiuf irm'CMi ui'khu 11 niii found it would net run. The attention of the general manager was directed te the fact, and Captain Jenes at ence took charge ei tue gang ei men en me spot. Ordinarily, ,the tapping of a furnace is very simple. When tne furnace Is started, the tapping liole at its base is stepped with fireclay, and when It is tlme te run the metal a crowbar is inserted nnd driven home with a sledge. The metal then, of Its weight, opens up the holeto its full extent. On tills occasion several bars had been In serted, but without the desired cll'ect, when suddenly, without nny warning, the top of the crucible at a height of about seven feet above the tapping hole, gave way, and sev eral cartloads of tlie seething mass poured out en the men below. Captain Jenes was in the act of steeping down te leek into the hole, when the metal llewed down upon htm, and knocked him into the pit and between the trucks, which were standing In It. Had he chanced te have fallen into ene of ihe trucks, Instead of between them, he must have been In stantly burned te a cinder, as the metal poured Inte the cars, filling them. The clothing was completely stripped from his body, which was lwdly mutilated by the burning Iren. Superintendent James Gayley, of the furnace department, and his assistant, Michael Killcu, were standing near nt the tlme. but escaped without in jury. Most of the men who were engaged at tlie furnace were mere or less burned, and, witli the exception of these last above named, nre being treated In Dmddeck. The crucible, which imve war. is about 12 feet high and the same in width. It was constructed in the usual manner, of brlcl., nnd without any Jacket, and was net understood tobelnnny woylnndenuato te the pressuroef 12 pounds te the inch, which such a structure usually carries. The hele caused by the break Is "alieut six feet wide. At a late hour last night n call nt the Homeopathic hospital elicited the Informa tion that Captain Jenes was resting quietly and In a fair way of recovery, though he had at first been considered te be in u bad way, nnd nt the Mercy hospital it was feared he would net recover from his tcr tcr rlble Injuries. The manifestations of Captnln Jenes' ogeny en the train coming te the city were se heartrending that these who saw him can hardly beliove tlie physician's assur ance that he will recover. When tlie Incinerated body of Atuliew Kalleny wasdlseovereil, late last night, Iho heed nnd loll arm protruded ever the side of the Modeaear ( gradually cool Inn metal, the rest of tlie body being covered witli burning cinders. The Medoc was moved Inte tlie epen nlr, anil Immediately the face of Kalleny caught fire nnd burned te ashes Tlie Medoc was thou taken down te tlie river, nnd an attempt made te cool tlie biasing plle of cinders w ith water. During this ntten'p tlie he.id and arm fell oil', and were put in a box. Picks were then procured, nnd several men set !te work te dig out (he body. The upper portion of the trunk whs dihcoveied burned te n charred mass. lint snail pieces of boneo were nil that the mom minute seirch co ild I'm 1 of Kalleny s legs and thighs. Kalleny lest his 11C) by Killing into tlie Medoc nil which lie was standing nt the tlme of the accident. The hlazlui; shower of cinders fell ever him and literally burled him alive. Thnse present say his nf.t yell was the most awful thing ever heard by them. Everyone ut (lie turnace say that this accident was the veit Knew n ureuud Ilraddncl; for ever 10 years. Asjilinlt Sheet Vs. llleel.s. Frem the Ilnrrhiiurg Telegraph. Yerk a couple years age paved Its (iiaiH with asphalt block at an epense of about $10,000. The ether day It was taken up, nud this is what the Yeik Daily lias te say about It : "The tearing up of the asphalt blocks, se ns te be able te lower the curb ing in the n nhwest angle of tlie square, has demonstrated the fact that some of tlie asphalt blocks that were taken up had he come rotten te such an extent that they could be crumbled between the fingers. It is supposed that the water w lilcli is carried Inte that corner of the square is the cause." Fortunately Harrisburg has net used the asphalt block ; It uses the asphalt sheeting, and Gossip was informed only yestcrdny by a man who hud te cut through it that for anything he could see tlie asphalt sheet was as thick and as geed as it was when put down two years age. A Train IMtclicd by u Stray low. A train en the I.ewlsburg .V Tyrene rail road rounding a sharp curve about two miles from Itellofeute en Friday struck a cow and was thrown from the track. It ran n short distance en the cress-ties, nnd then the engine plunged down nn embank ment, carrying tlie baggage-car with It. Twe persons were severely hurt, nnd nearly all these nn the train were bruised nud battered. Shu Lest ii Vlnirer.

A special dlspntcli from Lancaster is: " A hint te farmers is contained in a 'let ter received by u prominent merchant of tills county from a member of (he Philr. delphia Cern Exchange, who sayn that net a single car of new wheat received tills son son has graded Ne. 1 Pennsylvania. ' The reason for this is that farmers linusn their crop befere It is dry, threh it nud rush II te market tne early, bofeio It has genn through a sweat eris in marketable condi tion. ' Tlie consequenco Is nil ever-stocked market and very low prices. " When Elisha A. Hancock, of Hancock Jt Ce., grain operators, was shown this ills patch he said: " Pennsylvania wheat Is loer as a title and is unfit te grind by Itself, forcing the millers In depend en Western wheat. The constant ruins bave injured tlie wheat and made It, with but few ex ceptions, damp nnd of peer quality. The farmers have te heuse ft befere It is dry or net nt nil nud Iho weather will net penult them te Icave It en tlie shock. I think tlie trouble Is net that tlie wheat Is threshed tne seen, but It Is net threshed seen enough. If left out doers (he i-aln would cause It te sprout. It Is better te bnrvest It early, and If properly heused It would be lu fair ondltlen. We have had Ne. 1 Pennsyl vania wheat, but very seldom. A geed deal of the state's wheat is rejected or given no crade. The price or Pennsylvania wheat is lower, however, for (he reasons I hae given." ' A Queer Strike.
