The County Commissioners Mnr Decide to

Pottsvllle, March 1. Tho rumor was freely
circulated to-day to tho effect that County
Commissioners Itentz, Martin and Meyers
had resigned their olllccs In consideration
that further prosecutions against them be
withdrawn by tho Taxpayers' Association.
Inquiry at tho court house this afternoon,
however, brought the information that there
was no truth in the rumor, and that tho oili
clals waro on duty.
Late yesterday afternoon Judgo liochtel
again called up tho matter of tho argument
on a motion for a new trial with a viow of
fixing an hour for argument to-day. The

Marr and Wliitchouso, representing the Com

A team of horses belonging to August Carls,
tho butcher, took a llight yesterday that is
worth recording. Mr. Carls had the team at
tho Shenandoah City colliery and had just
loaded a half ton of coal 011 tho wagon when
a passing locomotivo startled tho horses.
They dashed from the breaker to Laurel
street, thenco to Main street and down to the
Pennsylvania freight yard, whure they
tqrncd west and sped across tho open space
with almost lightning rapidity to the railway
tracks. Ou thty dashed to the Lehigh Valley
tracks and kept in lino with them until they
reached Ilronnsvillo, where thoy turned
upon tin highway and stopped. The horses
wero exhausted. All along tho railroad
remnants of tho true k wero found and whon
the horses stopped little other than the traces
dangled behind them. With the exception
of a light scraping of tho leg of one horse the
team escaped injured and both animals were
lu working harness to-day.

Washington, March 1. Late yester
day afternoon a telegram came to the
navy department from Admiral Si-
card, at Key West, announcing that
the court of inquiry in the Maine dis
aster will resume session at Havana
to obtain the evidence of the divers
after further work upon the wreck.
This communication sets at rest ru
mors that have been current for some
days past that the court was not to re
turn to Havana for the reason that
it had discovered the cause of the
sinking of the Maine, which was not
an accident, and that they had no fur
ther business In Havana.
One Important deduction to be
drawn from the message was that the
report of the court of Inquiry can
scarcely be expected for several weeks
to come. The court will be occupied
at Key West for Some days at least
In taking tho testimony of the sur
vivors there. Then upon the return
to Havana It is expected that a good
deal of time must elapse before the
divers can get through the mud which
now encompasses the lower part of
the wreck of the Maine and examine
the bottom. After this is done the
court must deliberate in order to se
sure an agreement upon their findings.
The prevalent belief at the navy de
partment is that up to this moment
the court has not once undertaken to
compare notes.
A Cuban mall was received during
the day, and with the candor which
has so far characterized all his deal
lngs with the public in this matter
Secretary Long caused it to bo given
to the newspaper reporters as soon as
he had read It himself. It was made
up of one letter from Captain Sampson,
dated at Havana, Feb. 23, and although
It is simply a statement of events that
had already been reported by tele
graph, one fact Is significant, viz, a
statement that the testimony of cer-
tain civilian witnesses before the court
would be of no importance.
The reports that came from Key
"West about great activity and the ob
servance of unusual precautions among
the few soldiers quartered there was
received with amusement at army
headquarters here. It was said that
no orders had gone forward from this
city to explain the bustle, but there
was the best reason to suspect that the
commandant was simply brushing up
the post and putting his best foot for
ward against the expected appearance
there on his tour of Inspection of Gen
eral Merrltt.
The gunboat Wilmington sailed yes
terday from La Guayra for Barbadoes,
traveling over the ground covered
few days before by the Cincinnati and
Castine. All of the boats are slowly
cruising around in the Caribbean, and
will be so employed until April, when
they will go south again. Secretary
Long said at the close of ofllce hours
that no orders had gone out to send
another warship to Havana, reports
to the contrary notwithstanding.
At the White House the utmost quiet
prevails. Many offers have come
from organizations and Individuals of
their services in case of a conflict,
Some of the congressional callers also
have stated to the president that their
states would furnish full quotas of men
Secretaries Long and Alger and
Representative Dingley were among
the president's visitors yesterday, but
It was stated that they had nothing
of Importance on the Maine affair to
discuss with him. Mr. Dingley spoke
afterward In strong terms against re
ports that financial circles in New
York wero being sounded as to the
readiness with which funds could be
raised in an emergency. The atten
tlon of Secretary Gage was called to
the published statement that he was
making preparations for a bond issue,
nnd that the bureau of engraving and
printing was preparing the plates. Tho
secretary pronounced the statement
unqualifiedly false. No such action

This negltlve evidence Is so strong an
so general that I sue no possibility of
the court deciding that the explosion
was internal. The only alternative left
for the court is to fall back on evl

think, will bq done, unless the court

As bearing on the value of the opin

POWDER

Having heard a discussion over the ex
plosion of gas at Packer No. 2 colliery by
which two men were burned on tho 23rd
Inst, the curiosity of a Herald reporter
was aroused and ho determined to learn what
was in the case that should keep discussions
alive so many days subsequent, especially
when the cause of the explosion bad been
reported as 0110 of the causes that cannot be
foreseen, when the victims were compara
tively but slightly injured and tho explosion
had dons no damage tu the mine.
Tho men burned were Thomas Noone and
Charles lloshinsky. Their faces aud hatuN
sutleied. When the case was reported it was
stated that the explosion had been precipi
tated by a sudden rushing of gas into the
place where the men were working, and that
the gas had been dislodged by an unexpected
fall of coal in another part of the mine.
If such were the facts, why should there
lie so much talk over them V This was a
question that ran through the reporter's
mind continually and he at last decided to
ascertain if there had boen an investigation
of tho case, and if so, what conclusions the
ollicials had reached.
.Mine Inspector William Htln was busy at
his desk in his office in tho Egan building
last yesterday afternoon when the IlKmi.n
reporter entered. "I have called, Mr. Stein,
to sec if the true tacts concerning- the ex
plosion at Packer No. 2 collieo- of a few
days ago diner materially from Woso already
published in tho Herald," was the first gun
fired by the roporter.
Tho Inspector hesitated a moment and
then asked why the reporter had doubted
that the facta wero not as published. The
u-porter responded with a brief review of
what ho had overheard, whereupon, Mr.
stein said. ery, well; take a seat. Your
conclusions are about right. It does seem
odd that thore should be so much talk over a
matter which appears upou its surface of
minor interest, but the truth is the partii-u
lars 01 tno accident aB published were not
correct, aud since you have taken an interest
in tho cabo 1 will be frank with vou.
"L'pon learning of the explosion I made a
preliminary examination. Sumo of the wit
nesses I examined wade evasive answers.
which led mo to believe that they were con
cealing ut least a part of the truth, or that
they wero men too ignorant to Work In
gaseous collieries.
"V hat 111 particular lod you to that con
clusion ?" tno reporter asked.

indeed!" exclaimed the reporter with
sonic surprise. "I have always thought that
iv ueii stuuiy imnps were usea tliey were
locked."
"Tho law provides that they should hi-."
continued Mr. Stoin with a tinge of indigna
tion, "but they were not locked in thisi-asc."
"I havo frequently heard it said that some
minors draw tho flame through the gauze of
tlielr salety lamp in order to light their
bobacco pipe and have often woudored if it
was true that a miner would take that risk,
ventured the reporter.
inspector fatein studied a moment, his
beau bowed and his gaze fixed intently upon
tno lloor. Suddenly raising his bead ho
turned toward his desk saying, "Oh, well
am sorry to say mat it Is too true. Some
men do that." Thon suddenly turning his
revolving cliair and lacing the reporter again,
Mr. Stein added, And in connection with
the explosion at Pucker No. 2 one of the
witnesses acknowledged to me that he had
actually dono that very thing not later than
a month ago in the section of thu colliery
wheio this explosion occurred. If I should
buzzard my opinion, he may have done thii
every day. liut we have no means of find
ing out, unless the mau who does it will ac
knowledge tho fact, as this man did to inc.'
"Thon it is vory difficult, Mr. Stein, to
get tho true cause of some mine explosions?"
"Yos, sir, it is; for in most cases tho evi
dence of the real cause of an explosion is de
stroyed, and in trying to find out the teal
cause under these conditions it becomes a
matter of dill'erenco of opinion, and at best
merely speculative."
"Then, in your opluion, the explosion at
Packer No. 3 was caut-od either by the men
having a naked lamp, or had unscrewed the
safety lamp ?"
"My investigation goes to prove beyond a
question of a doubt that the gas did not ex
plode from any other cause," replied Inspec
tor jtoln with emphasis.
"Whose duty isit to see that tho lamps are
locked when they are given into the bands
of tho minors V"
"It is tho duty of the mine foreman, of
course, to the extent that he should instruct
the lampmau to lovk all lamps taken out of
the lamp house, liy doiag so he would at
loasthave fulfilled his duty In this respect.
And a minor in any way trying to opeu the
lamp, or pull the limn a through the gaits,
should bo either prosecuted, or dismissed."
I he iutt mow ended here and the ronuitor
thanked the Inspector for the information
received. As ho wended his way from the
Inspector's otiice the scrlbo's mind became
fixed ou three points derived from what he
had heard ; first, there are evidently times
when mine fort-men neglect their duties;
second, minors don't alwuyg use their aalety
lauips as thty should ; and, third, there are
times when mine acoldente occur ami the
