ANOTHER SIDE OF IT.
Charley Mitchell States His Yiews of
the-Kew York Scene.
HE WILL COME BACK THIS YEAS.
Htclier 'Woodcock Tery Artistically Asis for
His Release.
ALL TII SPORTING KEYTS OF THE DAI
Those who have been interested in the
recent escapade of Charles Mitchell at Kew
York and his conflict of words with J. J.
Corbett will probably read with as much in
terest what Mitchell has to say abont the
matter. Just before leaving Xew York for
Enpland, that is, on "Wednesday morning,
he wrote the following letter to a friend in
this city:
"Deak Fuiexd Doubtless you have
read of my alleged goings on with Corbett,
but do not believe all you hear. I did not
conduct myself, perhaps, as well as I might
have done, or as well as I should have done,
but I hd just cause for acting as I did. I
have been in America for several weeks and
almost everybody has been trying to down
me. I have been abused and slandered on
all sides and the most cowardly attempts
have been made at all stages to ruin the
business of Slavin and myself. In our
boxing exhibitions we were only doing
what other people were doing, and probably
doing it better, and we were called 'fakes,'
etc.
That ?Ian Corbett.
"But this man Corbett, who has not in
any shape or form proved himself a fighter,
went around the country calling me a
coward. All newspapers were ready to
print whatever he said about me, and when
1 offered a replv, it was either garbled or
not published at all The New York papers
stated I dare not come to 2Cew York.
Slavin and I came only to find that Corbett
had all the press arrayed against me and he
was declaring me a coward. I was to leave
the next day and what could I do to let this
man know that there was no cowardice in
me? Only one thing, that was to go to hiin
and demand satisfaction there and then.
'I did this in a noisy way, I admit. I de
manded him to fiiht me there and then, and
he declined; he declined, although I called
him worse than any man has been called be
fore. I wanted to "fight him, but he proved
the coward, and when I was about to sail
into him the police pulled me away. This
is the true account of the affair. But I will
return, and then Coibett or anybody can
have a try to knock me out"
Ztcacly for Any Maa.
After mentioning a few formal matters
Mitchell goes on to say that he is not afraid
of anv man on earth, and that there are
more dangerous men lor him to meet than
Corbett The writer of the letter also adds
that he received a telegram from Mr. Brady
statin? that Corbett was sick and unable
to go on with the Madison Square
contest "I was in Chicago then," says
Mitchell, "but now Mr. Brady says he sent
no such telegram. "Who sent it? That's
what I want to know. I want the public to
understand that when I had pluck enough
to lace Sullivan when nobody else wonld
face him I am certainly not atraid of a man
like Corbett I may add that the reports
nbmit falavm and x being baa menus are
just as true now as they ever were. "We are
together yet, and will remain so."
The letter puts a difleient complexion on
many things to what newspaper reports
have stated. It certainly shows that Mitch
ell has a side of the matter as well as Cor
bett "WANTS HIS EELEASE.
Fitcher Woodcock Dues 'ot 'VVaHt to Come

Pitcher Woodcock does not want to come

Victims of the Hill Farm Disaster
Are Reinterred at Last.
THE BODIES IN A BAD CONDITION.
No Blame Is Attached to the Operators bj
the Coroner's Jury.
NEWS! KCTES FE0JI KEAEBT T0WHS
.-SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.!
DtrxBAR, March 25 The remains of the
23 victims of the Hill Farm disaster were
brought from their unnatural tomb to-day,
and reinterred in consecrated ground. At
7 o'clock this morning the company com
menced bringing the 23 coffins" with their
ghastly contents to the surface.
Coroner Hulbert arrived on the scene at 8
o'clock, and at once called his jury to
gether. The coffins were opened as soon as
they were brought out of the mine It was
only in two or three cases that the men
could be identified by their features. It
had to be by some mark on their clothing or
th. contents of their pockets. They were
all covered with a shiny, black mud, pre
senting much the appearance of mummies.
At 10 o'clock the last of the bodies were
brought out of the mine and identified, com
pleting the list.
As the 23 corpses lay about in the small
space, where they were found, in some
case:, piled one upon the other, they ap
peared to be in fairly good condition for re
moving, hut the first one that was touched
showed much to the contrary.
Ilodies Dismembered by Handling.
On getting it ou to the stretcher tho head
rolled away from the trunk. The feet and
hands fell ofi, and it appeared that only the
clothing: on the body held it intact. Xot so
much trouble was found with tho rest, but
in several cases limbs tell on, and the least
strain on any part seemed to break its fast
enings. The lonff lay in the water had uiold
ered away the tissues, and while the form
had been preserved the weight and sub
stance of the flesh were cone, only the mere
semblance of human beines remaining.
The bodies were usually light. To get
them into the caskets as a whole, each body
was wrapped in enough muslin to hold it
together and then placed in. The work was
tcuious. uncanny and laborious, and it was
late in the night when the last corpse was
placed In the casket. The caskets contain
ing the remain were then loaded on road
wagons to the cemeteries, where they were
placed beside the open graves where they
remained until this afternoon, when the last
sad rites were performed and their ashes
consigned to earth.
The Last Kites Over the Dead.
Fully 1,500 people preceeded the strange
looking funeial train to the cemetery. It
was here the first real demonstration of
grief was made public. Women shrieted
and cried, threw themselves across the cof
fins of their departed ones and offered up
prayers and lamentations.
In the meantime the inquest was being
held at the office of Superintendent Hill at
tho mine. The testimony of Superintendent
Hill, Mine Inspector Duncan, Robert Lang
and other workmen was heard. The result
ot the investigation was the following ver
dict: Suffocation from smoke from a Are
Thich na accidentally started in n brat
tice. Xo blame is attached to tho Dunbar
Furnace Company, and the officials are de
serving of credit for the efforts they have
made to recover the bodies of the dead. The
jury then adjourned to meet again when
the remaining six bodies are found.
It may take ten days or a month to find
the remaining victims. They are supposed
to De in the lower dip in the lowest part of
the mine, and it is filled with water. The
pumps are being worked day and night, but
the task is a big one.
ANOTHER HONEST THIEF.
The Trusted Agent of Railroad and Express
Companies Found Crooked.
Fisdlay, March 25. Special. 1 The Tillage
of Mt. Corry is all torn up over the disap
pearance of J. F. Hummel, railroad and ex
press agent, who left on Saturday, taking
with him a large sum of money belonging to
his cmDlovei-s. Hummel was looked upon
as one of the leading citizens. He was the
local agent of the United States Express
Company and station agent of the Lake Erie
and Western Railway Company.
After Hummel's departure, H. W. Will
iams, route agent of the expiess company,
began a quiet investigation. A shortage of
large-sized proportions was soon discovered.
It was found that Hummel, in addition to
pocketing the collections of the office, had
isxued a number of express money orders
without accounting for them. He had also
made out a number of these orders in the
name of fictitious persons and had them
cahed at Lima. Findlay, Fostoria and other
points. In addition to tnose which have
been traced to him, it is known that he took
a book of the orders with him, and it is
teared he has issued and cashed numbers of
them. It is said tho expres? company will
lose not less than $500 through the pecula
tions of its trusted agent. The amount that
the railroad will lose is not known. It will
probably aggregate as much as tho express
company's loss. Last night Boute Agent
Williams passed through nere with a war
rant for tho arrest of Hummel. It is ru
mored that Hummel is in biding in the
neighborhood of Lima, but those best in
formed are inclined to the belief that he has
gone much farther.

FIRES, FAILURES AND RAILWAY NEWS
New York, March 25. Bradstreet's Weekly
Wall Street Review says: The discussion of
the Bland silver measure at "Washington
has this week furnished the chief cause for
further speculative hesitation At the same
time, it would seem that "Wall street had
discounted th,e possibility of the bill becom
ing a law, and that the decline of bar silver
this week to the lowest figures recorded for
the metal in modern times measured the
chances of such action, as estimated in finan
cial circles. Europe has not been prominent
as a factor in the stock market, and the par
ticipation from that auarter has been con
fined to spasmodic selling of a few special
stocks.
The sharp advance which has occurred in
exchange ratesT may, indeed, be connected
with the silver agitation, and represents
more closely than the operations of the
share market would do the conservative
tendency aroused by the proceedings in the
House of Representatives. The side-tracking
of the Bland bill Thursday was,. to a
certain extent, a relief to the market.
Nevertheless, it would seem that a certain
feeling of uncertainty was aroused on that
account which will not disappear lor some
time. These influences have certainly lim
ited speculation and kept the market in a
narrow and professional state.
But, though this feverishness and sensi
tive condition are apparent, it seems that
little inducement was afforded for bearish
attacks on values in general. Some declines
were produced in the opening of the week,
and later on the President's message on the
Bering Sea question was used as cover for
a bear raid. Nevertheless, the firmness of
the market has not disappeared.
The feature of the week was the Industrial
group, with sugar in the role of chief per
former. Chicago Gas also, developed in
creased activity and strength, and even Dis
tillers was somewhat firmer, Cordage also
showing a decidedly firm disposition. The
decline of Northern Pacific preferred was
the most striking of the week's bearish
manifestations. Somewhat similar tenden
cies developed in the common shares and in
North American.

A GLASS FACT0EY IN ASHES.
Tho Entire Plant of the Braddock Com
pany Burned Testerday.
RANKIN" STATION, 3Iarch 25. Special
A fire at Rankin to-day at 2 P. 3f. de
stroyed the entire plant of the Braddock
Glass Company and the office adjoining, to
gether with a large amount of stock. The
fire originated in the hay shed, which stood
near the Pittsburg and Lake Erie track, and
is supposed to have started from sparks
from a passing locomotive. Owing to the
combustible nature ot the stock the fire
spread rapidly.
Five loaded freight cars standing on a sid
ing were burned before the yard engine
could remove them. It was impossible to
save anything of any value. The loss tothe
firm will be from 560,000 to 570,000, and is
partly covered by insurance. The plant
has been running day and night, and 250
men will be thrown out of employment
Superintendent "W. R: McCloy said. that the
firm will probably rebuild at once. The
Braddock Glass Company has been in suc
cessful operation here for the past four
years, and about a year ago added some ex
tensive improvements to their works.
A HEW EAILHOAD C0NVZHIENCE
That Wilt Coal and Water Locomotives, as
"Well as Ta,ke on Passengers.
JonNSTOWN, March 25. Special. Sam
uel Critchfield, of this place, is the in
ventor of a new method of coaling engines,
as well as of taking on and discharging pas
senger;. By his plan an elevated track will
be built alongside of the railroad, upon
which a car will be started upon the ap
proach of a train, attaining a speed equal
to that of the train itself. Then a hopper
of coal can be dumped into the engine, and,
iu taking on or .off passengers, an inclosed
platform will be thrown out, allowing the
people to get on or off the train while going
at any rate of speed.
The invention also covers an elevated
trough for taking water. Several promi
nent railroad men, who have examined it,
say it will certainly work.
