Thc Pennsylvania railinaJ cojiijiaiiy will wJiHtruct third frock, this year, Utwrnmrittxhrnvh and rhilaili-Iiiliia. A portion of the work lias already been let to contract. The Legislature 18 working with such determine! seal, as to warrant the hope that it will mieeeed in finishing np its buwinesB by the 19th, the day it has fixed upon for final adjournment. With the retirement of Mr. Africa, a Secretary of Internal Affairs, on Monday of last week, the last vet?1ige of the Dem ocratic Administration that was fastened upon Pennsylvania by the kickers in 182, wan completely rooted out. TnE bill to repeal the law giving boun ties for the destitution of foxes, minks, hawks, owls, etc., has finally passed both branches of the legislature, and is in the Governor's hands. It no doubt will be approved, and thus one source of useless exjiense will be saved the counties. It is said that Mr. Carlisle w ill not be a candidate forSjeakerof the next House, but that he proposes to come ujion the floor as Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, and thus assume the lead in the raid that is to be made on the tariff preparatory to the coining Presi dential election. The discussion in the Ik-iuocratie press as to w hether or not, the President was a candidate for a second term, apiears to liave revolved itself into the conclusion that he is "in the hands of his friends." Now all pood IVmocrats will devoutly pray that the hands of his friends may be strengthened, "s there would le a dread ful wjticlcli should they happen to let him fall. The operatives in the Anthracite coal region, numbering fiAy thousand, are pre jiaring to go out on a strike this week. About fifteen thousand men in the coke region around Connellsville are now out ; thus making aliout sixty-five thoasand idle men in the coal and coke trades in this rotate. An immense lossof money in w ages to the workmen, and greater losses to the ojierators and railnxids will lie the result. . The Albany Journal puts a vicious sort of question to thexlitical Prohibitionists in this wise : "The prohibition vote, thrown away as it was in the State of Now York, made Mr. Cleveland President of the T'liiteil Mates. President Cleveland not long ajro aiiiminteil a saloon-keeper named Met y postmaster at Haverhill. Ohio. This Mtloon-kecier, with his three brothers, on Thursday last tilmt to death on the public street Ir. Xorthup, a Prohibitionist for trying to close the saloons of Haverhill. Who is primarily resoiisitile for this horrible crime. President Cleveland, his saloon-keeping ost master, or the Prohi bitionists ho anaile Cleveland President ?" The Kentucky Democracy at their State Convention last week, nominated by ac clamation, ex-Confederate General Buck ner, as their candidate for Governor. This is in uinoi-dunce with the eternal fit ness of things, but it is just a little singu lar that, these Southern Democrats, while loudly profi'ssing that " bye-got les are bye gones," invariably hit upon an ex-confederate when they have honors or the emolument of office to bestow. It can m, wiid for General Buckncr, however, that while he was one of the first Kentuckians to take up arms against the general Gov ernment, he was also one of the first to accept defeat in the proper spirit. Is his report of the operations of the Pennsylvania Railroad for the year 181 ieneral Manager Pugh says : "The gross earnings of the main line from "Philadel phia to Pittsburgh were $31,132,27. The gross earnings of the Philadelphia anil Krie division were $3,708.48-1, and the net earnings of the new Jersey division were $4,118,il31 : the net earnings of the entireroad leing f M,9:W.S04. There were built in the Altoona shojw during the year 124 locomotives, 93 asriger equip ment cars, 384 W freight eipiipment cars, and 104 maintenance of way cars. At thc Renova shops 310 frt'ight equipment cars were built and at the West Phila delphia shops V passenger cars were built. The Kentucky Ik'mocrats held their State Convention last week, and as they claim to be the cream of the party, and furnish its leader in the Senate and the Sieaker of the House, thev "set the I ace " for the coming election. Mr. Car lisle who was President of the Conven tion wade a carefully prepared sieech outlining the issui-s of the campaign and announced that a determimtl eflort to cut down the tariff would be its chief fea ture. This is fair open notice to the country of what may be exiected in case of Itemocratic success, and if after this, the voters iicrmit themselves to be de ceived into voting the ticket nominated by tliat iarty, they will have nothing to blame but their own folly. Cleveland, on a substantially free trade platform is what the Democracy will offer to its sup portenj in the contest of next year. Governor Ctobiios of Georgia, last week pardoned two brothers named Kel ly, under circumstances tliat brings to public attention an almost forgotten trag edy. The two brothers were engaged in riot at Dawson, in Georgia seventeen years ago, where a fight with a cirr us company occurred, in which several men were kilhxl. They were tried and con victed of murder, for careh -ly shooting one of their friends and were sentenced to the penitentiary for twenty years. While, in jail they escajied and fled to Florida, where oneof them is now a mem- ber of the Legislature and the other Su erinteudent of Public Education. Their friends in Georgia petitioned thetJover nor for a pardon, but be refused to take au-tkm, until they gave themselves tip to the projier authorities. This they did last week, and their pardon followed. Both men are said to have lived exem plary live in Florida and to lie highly re sjiocted. The country eagerly watched the pro ceedings of the Democratic Convention in Kentucky last week, because that State was to take the initiative in the coining Presidential contest, and strike the key note of the music to which the solid south is to march to anticipated victory. The programme was carefully arrange!. Mr. Speaker Carlisle, who is a prospective candidate for Vice President, w as selected as the presiding officer, and in a carefully prepared speech voiced the principles for which the Democracy are to do battle, in the campaign ofl&s8. Summed up brief ly, they arc : Free-trade, free-whiskey, 4 ami State rights. These are the wi W lum w atch w ords of the party, and furnish the survst proof that, the BonriHin De mocracy has barn-d nothing and forgotten nothing. The stolid, mulish indifference, to the industries of the country, the aroun-d moral sentiment of the Nation, and the lessons of the late war, based as it was hostility to the jniwer of the General Government, displayed in his declaration of principles, give pause for thought, to every patriot in the land. The country may as well make up its mind now, as to await the deliverance of its National Convention next midsum mer that, the Democracy will go into the next contest w ith hostility to a protective tariff, hostility to temperance reform, and hostility to the exercise of any restraining lwer by the National Government over the States, eniblaioned on its banners. Forewarned is fore-armed. It is none too soon for prcjiaration to meet these issues. That square-toed, ultra free trade, Dem ocratic journal, the Philadelphia Vor(i, is apparently determined that there shall lie no " now you see it, and now you don't " cheating on the tariff question in the coming campaign, if plain talk in ad vance will prevent it, and it therefore rises to remark that : ' A great many Democratic newspajiers which are nitMiKxl with the protectionist vims' cry out loudly for the renomination of President Cleveland notwithstanding that the record of his administration is distinctly Bgainst tariff extortion. These protective suckers cxit to float with the Democratic tide into a safe harbor, and then do what they can to defeat the desire of a majority of their fellow-Democrats, Honest protection ists oppose President Cleveland for the rea son that they do not upree with his policy." We give the Jlmtrd credit for bis hon est expression of opinion, though it may have U'en wiperindeced by the know ledge that the outspoken truth cannot materially affect Mr. Cleveland, in a State which he has not the ghiwst of a chance to carry. Ir being retorted by the Washington newspapers that General Sheridan intend ed to take a pleasure trip through the Shenandoah Valley, the ire of ex-Confederate General Rosser, who was sent whirl ing down the valley by "Little Phil" during the late war lecame stints! up, and he w rote and caused to be published the following letter : I'nivkbsity of Vikoima, May 2. Major Holmes Conrad, Winchester, Va. My Dear Major: I have seen it reported recently ill the newluH-rs that Cieneral P. H. Sheridan, V. S. A., contemplates at an early day anoth er ride up the Shenandoah Valley. I had hi(ed that our Uautiful valley should never aptin he desecrated by his footprints. Cold, cruel and brutal must If the character of this soldier, who fondly cherishes memories of the wild, wanton waste and desolation which bis torch spread through the valley, laying in ashes the beautiful and happy homes ot innocent women, young and help less children, and aged men, and who over these ruins boasted that " Now a crow cannot fly over this valley without carrying its ra tions." (ieiieral Sheridan has dune nothing since the war to atone for his cruel barliariMii during the war. We have not forgotten that during his reign in New Orleans he asked that our fellow-citizens of Ixniisiana might be proclaimed banditti, in order that hemight set the dogs of war on them. 1 have forgiv en the brave men of the I'nion armies whom I have met in honorable battle and who tin ally triumphed oner us in the great struirgle. Among them I can now name many of my warmest and truest and most prized friends. They are good and true men. and think none the less of us for having fought them. lu lled, they esteem him highest among us who fought them the hardest. Sheridan is not oneof this kind, and he has never accorded to us tliat peace which (Irant proclaimed. I now say to you, my dear Major, and to our gallant comrades who are now iu the valley, that I hojie you will allow this man to make his triumphant ride np the valley in jH-ace, but have him go like a miserable crow, car rying his rations with him. Yours truly, Thomas L. UiissEK. General Sheridan was much amused when his attention was called to Roascr's phillippic, and said : " Rosser has not forgotten the whaling 1 gave him in the valley and I am not surprised that lie loses his temper when he recalls it. You see. wlien I was moving down t'le valley I had an inqiortant object lu view and did not care to lie annoyed. Rosser was sent af ter me with a brigade, but I did not consider It worth while to give him much attention, (teneral Torlx-rt's division of cavalry formed the rear of my column and I was confident he could take care of Rosser. Occasionally Rosser would come across small detachments of our troops and would swoop down ujon them. Finally it was rciort-d to me that Rosier had captured my park train, and this made me mad. Halting the entire army right on the road, I gallojied to the rear to find Torliert determined to settle Rosser. found tliat the train had not been captured, although it had encountered Rosser and was coming in considerably scattered and broken up. 1 could not find Torlert, and this added to inv rage. When I found him, he mas quietly enjoying himself in a farmhouse, I called him out and informed hi in that I wanted Rosser cleaned out, and that if he could not do this I would take his division and do it uivself. I concluded I would re main and see the work performed, and so I informed Torbert. The following morning early Torls-r went after Rosser. whose bri gade was struck with an iuqietiiosity that caused it to matter. We stripHil the enemy of everything it had captured; all its guns. except one, which subsequently fell into our hands, and all its baggage, including the (icr sniial effects of Rosser. It was a regular frolic tor our boys. Custer got Rosser' s uni form and occasionally wore it for the amuse ment of his command. Torliert pursued R'wser to Newmarket, a distant of about twenty-live miles. He did not trouble me further. " This incident was doubly humiliating to Rosser. because he was hulled as the "Saviour of the Valley.' bin men wearing small laurel twigs in their hats as ail indication of their purpose to clean us out. Some time aflar this, when Risser again appeared in that vi cinity, I understand the jcoqle advised him to substitute pumpkin vines for laurel, that plant being well known for running quali ties. For these reasons, I siipinwe, Oencral Rosser continues to feel unkindly toward me. He says that I have not atoned for my acts during the war. That is true, it never oc curred to me that I was called tqion to do so. I want to add tliat I do not pni)Hsc to make a trip to the Shenandoah Valley the coming Siiinin.-r, ami had not thought of so doing. I visiUsl the valley last Summer, in cotnjiany with Scii-itor Cameron, of Pennsylvania, and wa hospitably received by the jwojile, none of mhom exhibited any of the bitterness of ftx-luig that is expressed in tienerai Rosser' letter. 1 understand Rosser is not living in the valley, and as lie intends to become a candidate for Congress his letter was doubt les written for effect ujon his coming H!it ica campaign." We are inclined to think that after reading Sheridans few remarks, General Rosser will agree with the rest of the worbi, that he was a darned fool for at tempting to stir up ancient strife. A Militia Secret. Habkisbi wi, Pa., May 8. In an address at the Oily Grays' bazaar last night ov. Reaver related a stirring iiiidnt, which was new to all present. Six weeks ago, he said, the War Department at Washing communi cated with the Gmimaiider-in-Chiet of the Pennsylvania militia, asking how soon the National Guard of this State could lie con centrated at Lake Krie, in view of the trouble with Kngland on the fisheries question. The answer was that the entire force oftlie mili tia could he concentrated at any point with in twenty-four hours after the order was given. THE REPUBLICAN OUTLOOK. A Frank Estimate of th P0raoct and the Difficulties. From the Washington Star (lad ) A SUir repirter met a Republican congress man to-day who talked freely alsuit the po litical outlook of hi party, but objected to lieing quoted. He say that up to about the time Congress adjourned he had accepted it as a foregone cone lusion that Mr. Blaine would lie their next nominee. Sineethew lie has become doubtful. Sherman, he says, has made some big stridts of late, and there seem now to be a close race between them, with it very doubt ful which is in the lead. " It looks more like Sherman," he says, " than it ever did before hut it may le that neither will get it. What ever we may say publicly, wc all know that it i not going to lie an easy thing to beat Mr. Cleveland. We will have no show iu the tight if we enter it handicapped with in internal difference. The arty leaders recognize the fact that the whole jarty has got to pull together to win, and that individual preferencea have got to be unk for the good of the whole party. They are trying to effect harmony, and the claims of individuals will lie set aside for the time. The question is, 4 Who will best hold the entire Republican strength T ' and the effort will lie to nominate the man who w ill do this. This makes it a little uncer tain aliout Mr. Blaine. It may lie that neith er Blaine nor Sherman will get the nomina tion, but that some outside man will be call ed. It is claimed for Mr. Blaine that he will draw more! iH-mocratie votes than he will lose Republican. It is certain that he would i.l more IVmocratic votes than any other Republican could. But the question is whether it is well to trust to this. Many of the best party leaders hold that the fate of the party must lie with men of its own faith, and that the strongest candidate is the man who can carry thc whole party. This will all be carefully considered la-fore it becomes a sure thing foi anyone. There is no doubt in the world that Mr. Cleveland is very well liked by many of our best Repub lican statesmen. Some of the best men of the jiarty went with him la-fore, and the probability that he would still more of them if we should nominate Blaine must la; consid ered. We must not deceive ourselves. The Conkling element is as bitter against Mr. Blaine as ever, and the hatred of Mr. Ed munds for him is intense. This must all lie considered. We will have to use our forces to the very best advantage to lat Mr. Cleve land and the wisest counsel will have to be followed. I do not mean by this that Mr. Blaine may not la? the choice of the party, hut that he will he is by no means as certain as it seemed to le -a few months ago. He will not la; nominated as a mere matter if sentiment." A Powder Mill Blows Up. Killing one Man and Injuring Two Others. Vii.kibarrk, May ".The coming mill ofthe ljifm Powder Company's powder mills, situated on the mountain side just alsive Palti-ton. exploded from some unknown cause at noon to-day. There was over 1.2IHI pmnds of piwdcr in the mill at the time, and the shock was terrific. It was plainly felt in this city, and the . loud of smoke and rubbish, which shot up 4l t'ect in the air alsive the mills, was visible 10 miles away. At the time the explosion mvurred the last charge of pnwdiff was being run through, and only one man, Joseph Frazcr, was in the building. He was instantly killed, and his body, when found, was terribly mangled under the ruins and burned to a crisp. Two other men, Amos C'ummings and John Werl, who were at work not far from the mill, w-re knocked down and badly bruised and cut by the flying iM-ris. which wass-alt4-red over an area of many acres. A number of goodsized trees that stood near the building were up narted and blown down. The mills employ alaiut 441 men, and have a cajocity 4if about ,yotM pounds ja-r day. This was the last day of work prior to a month's suspension for re pairs. The loss will 1m: 10,tMi(. Left to Shiver By Burglars. Dbtkoit, May 6. A reign of terror prevail ed in the Northeastern jiart of town Tuesday night. Burglars robbed several Imjiiscs from cellar to attic, and even carried off the bed clothe, h-aving women and children to Shiver. The exn riem-e ofthe family of August No wak, 13 Florence Street, is similar to all. In the family are several full-grown girls. The young women awoke, shivering and cold, and found themselves uncovered and the ts-d-clothes gone. I ne missed a string of beads from her tus k, another had lost a ring. A search ofthe house showed a window a-n, bed-clothing gone from other beds occupied by smaller children and all the clothes strip ped off their occiqiaiits. Mr. Nowak built a fire and the women huddled around it. When Nowak, clad in a lairof overalls, went to the Gratiot Avenue Station and reported the burglary he was joined by John Marshurger, 442 Grandy Avenue, also half clad, who reported a sim ilar state of things. Hurricane In Michigan. Marqi ktte. Mich., May 7. A terrific wind swept over the Upper Peninsula Mon day afternoon, completely prostrating tele graph and telephone wires and doing great damage. At lhieitiing, Haughton, N4-gau-m-e, Kseanalia und all through from Fort Howard to Iron river, and from Norway to Saulte St. Maria, communication was en tirely di-stroyed. Many buildings were tui nsil'cd. chimneys demolished, and railroad travel badly interrupted by fallen trees. Men iu the woods were terribly frighten ed. At Norway John Coleman was killed by a falling true. At yiiinni-ssee the Mason ic Hall and firemen' building was demol ished. At Iron Mountain great damage was done to houses. It is beli-vsl that wlien communication is restored nqsirts of general havoc will be rcwived from all quarters. Nothing but the most meagre reNirts are procurable ut present. Six Boys and a Cun.

Cine named (mint Best had bor rowed a double-harrehsl gun from a negro man, which, he says, had no caps on the tula's, and he did not know it was loaded. While in the act of blowing out one of the tube the hammer fell and one liarrel was discharged, killing instantly Ed Smith and B. Fillaywa, and Benooly and Ed Fillaywa were also shot, and died soon after. Another boy named George Bet was wounded in both arms, but it is likely he will recover.

Wasihsutox, May 7. Thc Washington Monument Commission this afternoon held a meeting to iliscuss the advisability of clos ing the monument to thc public after June 1 on account of the continued acts of vandal ism which are larpetrated by visitors.

New has reach ed here of hi flight from hi luwie, in 8t. Clair county, of Joseph Compton, present member of the State Legislature, under cir cumstances which read like a chapter from the life of Khwane. Coming from Kentucky, ao he stated, be took up his ulaale in thc little town of Eden, where he followed the trade of carpenter. His life was exemplary, and in a year or so he was elected town marshal. Last year, after a seasonable probation, Compton was licensed as a Methodist preach er, and hi sermons and exhortation were of thc most fervid and orthodox character. He joined the Independent party in the last Slate campaign, and wasselirtcd by them a their standard bearer for legislative honors-. After a hot fight he was elected over the ngular Democratic nominee by 500 majority, and last Novcmlajr took hi eat in the lower house of the Legislature. Now comes the strange history 4f this man's life. Thirteen year ago he was en gaged in making "moonshine" whiskey in one of the mountain counties of North Car olina. While thus engaged he became in-t volved in a difference of opinion with a par ty of revenue officers and in the melt that followed Compton shot and killed one ofthe officers. He was arrested, tried, convicted and seutenced to 24 years in the jainitentiary. He remained in that institution four years and then .fscaped. For year he succeeded in covering up his tracks and his escajie seemed a jK-rmancnt one. But one day, not long ago, a man who is now foreman of a bridge gang"on the Goxjmu- road saw Compton ami at once recognized him. " Thtit is Joseph Caston, who wasa prison er in the North Carolina Penitentiary when I was guard there several years ago," said the foreman, and then he communicated his dis covery to the North Carolina officials. The Governor issued the proper paja-rs for Comptoii's arrest, and sent them to the sher iff of Jefferson county, in this State, to have them served. A gentleman in Eden received a letter from a friend in Birmingman telling him oftlie receipt ofthe requisition, and this fact was told to Compton. The latter was snH-rii!toiiding a gang of laliorers on a rJ'ii truct which lie had taken on the Talladega and Coosa Valley Railroad, alaiut a mile from Elen, and had walked up to the village coatless. The receiver of the letter told him of its contents. Compton turned lule stam mered out a few broken explanations and then walked hurriedly away. That is the last that has been seen of him in that section, and his whereabouts arcuiiknown. He nev er even went back after bis coat. A New Senator. Ciiaklrstok, W. Va., May 5. The Senate and Lower House met in joint assembly at mam to-day for the purpose of electing a ln ited States Senator. There were eighty nine menila-rs present. Of this number forty -fie were required to elect. The vote resulted as follows: 0. J. Faulkner (lVm.), 4S ; Flick. (Rep.) .31; Bar!as (Greenback), fl; Cain-len ( I K m.). 1 ; R. S.

Judge Faulkner is a son ofthe late Charles James Faulkner, who represented Virginia and Wi-st Virginia in the Congress of the rnited Slates before the late war and served ns minister to France under thc administra tion of President Buchanan. When war be came imminent the new Senator's fail er re turned to America to settle up his affairs and was in Washington when a Pt-niisylvaniaii w is arrested in West Virginia. Mr. Faulk ner, as a West Virginian, wasanvstcd by the l'ni hi authorities and held until an c.ichange was made. Subsequently he hi-rame chief of S..n. -.rail Jackson's staff. Beings keen bus iness man and not fivling certain as to how the war would ivsitlt, he took the pr.mi it ion o. investing half the JV"' he owned in rnited States bonds and half in Coiiftslcrate Ismds. To this fai is due thegiaal financial position of his son. The Senator elect was born in Martinsluirg. W. Va., where he now resides, and is alamt 40 years ild. He is by profession a lawyer. He was elected judge of the Thirteenth Judi cial Circuit and has held the office up to this time. He is considered oneof the ablest judges iu the state and is universally jaipu lar with all classes. Arizona Shaken Up. Tihxos. May 4. An earthquake occurred here at yesterday afternoon. No jierson was injured. Considerable damage was done to buildings, goods were thrown from shelves of stores and many houses were more or less .cracked. Tne shock was accompanied by a rambling sound. Many cla-ks were stopped and the entire Mipulutiii of the city baik to the streets terror stricken. The Court House Cupola swayed like the mast of a ship in a turbulent sea and the building itself seemed a though it were toppling over. When the sha-k struck Santa Cataiina mountain great slices of the mountain were torn from its base. Vast clouds of dust rose above the crest, 7,OW fii-t above the sea level, at three different aiints from tlint- to l-.ur miles apart. It was believed for some time that a volcano had burst out on the crt of the mountain. One towering peak, known as the " Old Castle," a prominent landmark from Tucsou, luis entirely disappeared. The evtent of the damage cannot !e told for sev eral days. This was the lirt earthquake ev er experienced in Tucson. The public schiail building rocked to and fro like a cradle, and some of the plastering fell creating the ut most consternation among the scholars. The school was at once dismissed for fear of a it'pi-tition ofthe slna-k. According to a gen tleman who timed it die shock lasted just four minutes. One or two slight vibrations have sim-e been felt. Shortly after the earth quake a volcano broke out ut a piint twenty two mile south of this place in the Total Wreck Mountains. The sky is briiliautly il luminated. A Lunatic Presides Over a Company of Stolen Bodies. St. Johns, N. B., May 5. For the iast three months this city has been exercised In most mysterious grave robla-rii-s in the Car lion cemetery here. Home twenty graves have len ojiened and roblaxl despite the most stringent precautions taken to capture the thieves. Last night a clue was found. A belated jiedestrian having la-en chased in the ncighborlMKal of the graveyard by a fig ure be saw climbing over the wall, he out distanced his pursuer and at a safe distance saw the stranger make off in a certain direc tion. This morning the police traced the supiosed ghost and found hiding iu a dilaji idated shanty in Sussex near here Thomas Youdale, a dangerous lunatic-, who a month ago esoqa-d from the State Asylum. In the cabin were all the missing corpses, dressil in their grave clothes, and the flesh fulling from their lxxiies. Yomlale denied that they were dead, saying they were visitors of his, and fought like a tiger when arrested. He was a mas of filth and had dug the bodies up with his hands ami a sharp stone. The defuncts w-re all reiiiterred this afternoon. Cities Under Water. St. Johx. N. 11., May ". Tha rl.ajd in the St. John river continues to sweep with resist less force, At St. John the water was eight inches last night, and it is now on a level with the floors of a number of buildings. There is every indication that the tlisal will increase for several day yet. Occupants of store and dwellings in the endangered dis-tru-t are moving their giaals tc a place of safety. To-day it ltaiks as if the whole of Frederic ton City would be submerged by a foot or more of water, as the street are perfectly level, and the water is now running over them. Thc ilamage in this province ami Maine is already immense. Bax.kib, Me., May 5. Reports from all over thc State show that the loss from the flood is immense and that in many quarters the worst i yet to come. Business is gener ally suspended in a number of towns, and some of the railroads do not expect to be able to resume through business for two weeks. The Royal Vlstlors. W'ahhisotun, May 4. The rail if ceremo ny of the Polynesian Queen Kapiolani uikhi the President of the Fnittal Stati-s at noon to-day was novel and interesting. The Pres ident had been receiving the usual callers un til a few minutes before 12, when he descen ded to the Blue Parlor, ai.icompanied by Mrs. Cleveland, Private Secretary and Mrs. La mont, Mrs. Welsh and Ex-Mayor Bh-eker Banks, of Albany; Secretary Bayard accom panied by Assistant Secretary Adee, awaited the royal party In the promenade corridor. When their presence was announced the doors of thu mansion were thrown open. The Secretary, advancing, greeted the Queen as she alighted from hercarriage, meanwhile being presented by Minister Carter. Olfi-r-ing his arm ho escorted tlie Queen, with Minister Carter, followed by the Princess resting on the arm of Mr. Brown, Mrs. Car-let- with Lieutenant Rogers, Geiu-rl Homines with Captain Taylor, and other members of the suite, into the audience parlor, where the President and Mrs. Cleveland awaited 'hem. Secretary Bayard then presented the royal jiarty to the President and Mrs. Cleveland. The Queen not la-ing conversant with Eng lish her conversation lading conducted through the Hawaiian Minister. She ex pressed to the President her pleasure In pop ping for a short sojourn at the capital of th is grejit country; that her long journey across the continent had been made as comfortable as if she had lasen in her own drawing najni in her own palace. The President said that it gave him great pleasure to meet the Queen of a friendly power. He hod that her vis it would be pleasant and that the proper di rections had lawn given to make her present at the capital agreeable. At two o'clock Mrs. Cleveland made the return call ofthe ceremony, accompanied by Mrs. Fairchild, Mrs. Endicott, Mrs. Vilas und Mrs. Whitney, Mrs. Warren, of Boston, Secretary Bayard's eldest daughter, and the Misses Nannie and Florence Bayard. This was the first instance in the cermoiiial eti quette of the Executive Mansion in which the wife ofthe President represented the President in returning a call in firm iqam a memla-r of a rival family.

V., May 4. A terrible explo sion occurred in No. 1 shaft of the Victoria coal comimiiy' minis at Nuiiaiiuo, at 0 o'clock last night. One hundred and fifty men are believed to have been in the mine at the time. At midnight several raslii- have been recovered, and a few a.-rsons seriously burned were rescued at thesametinie. These numbered twelve ii: all.' There were little hopes of reenvf ring alive any of those still in the mine. A rescuing party went down, but owing to black damp were unable lo reach anything. A man named Hudson, of the rescuing Mtrty, ilied shortly after coming out of the mine. The scene around the shaft was must heartrending. A special train carrying surgeons from Victoria arrived at Nanaimo at 2 o'olia k this morning. The first intimation of the disastrous ex plosion which reached those on the surface was a territicshia-k, followed by an outburst of thick hlnck smoke through the air shaft. The first explosion was quickly followisl by a second one, stronger than the first. It car ried pieces of wood, miners' lamps, etc., hun dreds of feet in the air. In a few minutes flames la-gau to issue through the airshafl with a loud, roaring noise. The fanlioiise soon caught tire and was quicldy consumed. In the meantime 9 whitu men and 4 Chinese were brought up through No. 1, or the hoisting shaft J. K. Gibson, overman, miraculously escaped from the lower slope by picking his way to the stables, where he was met by the rescuers. Rescuing partii-s continued iu the attempt to reach the entomlied men, but were able to save only fifteen, when they were overcome by thc afterdamp and had to la; rescued by other. The friends of those imprisoned below were haiking for the missing, but little hopes are entertained for their safety. At a late hour it was still burning, and it will be iuqaissihle to attempt a rescue In-fore it is sulalued. It was believed last night that the fire iu the air shaft of shaft No. 1 had la-en extingu ished, and that only a small laaly of flame existed between the air and main shaft. The danger ofthe gas la-ing driven, into the fire is not past, and fears are entertained that the whole place may la.- blown up. If it should occur, the catastrophe would be the greatest remitted in the history of coal mining. The cause of the explosion is unknown. Jules Michel, one of the injured, says he was eating supa-r in shaft No. 2 when he heard the iiiicusioii. All scrambled for the exits, but were soon unconscious. He say thu explosion was simply terrific. Everything la-came dark at om-e. John Lynch, another of the injured, has lss.n de mented ever since the accident. It is thought he will die, having inhaled gas. Sam Hud son, oneof the killed, was a mincrof great ex perience. It is estimated that there are fifty or seventy-live Chinamen in the mine. The grief of the women is terrible. They tear thier hair and walk up and down la-fore the shaft, and some of them want to go into the cage to find their husbands. . Terrible Loss of Life.
