The Mansfield shafts are located on the west bank of the Michigamriie river ami the working levels of the mine ran directly un der the stream nnd parallel with it lor a distance of several hundred leet. The first level was 115 leet ' elow thu bottom of the river, and the lower levels, five ill number, ran parallel to the tlr-t, the hoitom being 42 feet below the surface of the water. The live upper levels have been alojted out in the progress of the Work leaving only tim bers anil pi l irs of ore lo bear the mighty weight of the floors of ore above. the accident is supposed to have been caused by the giving way of the timbers on the fifth level, allowing those above to follow, and ai lust (he river lo pour in upon the men.

Fall Plowing and Seeding Under Way. The weekly crop report of the Weathct llureanays: Cotton is opening rapidly, and picking has continued under generally fav orable conditions, although picking was somewhat checked in Texas and Oklahoma I y ruins during the latter part of the week. I'ustiirage bus continued in good condition in New Knglnnd and in the Middle. Atlantic States and has greatly Improved in the Ohl.i vulley. Corn cutting, where not completed, i be ing rapidly pushed, and the crop is now re garded as practically secured. Tobacco cutting is also being rapidly pushed in Marylund, Virginia. Tennessee und Kentucky. In Pennsylvania much tobacco remains still in the Held. The week has been generally favoralh for lull plowing and seeling, nn. I this work, which has been lunch retarded bv previous drouth conditions, is being rapidly caught up and has been completed tu some sec lions. In Nebraska, however, the drought leiiiaius unbroken, und full plowing slid reeding have been suspended und in Wis consin while beneficial rains have fallen, the ground is -till lo dry for seeding. In Tennessee the wea'her has been far orahlc for plowing nnd saving tobacco and louder; tobacco in northeast pot I ion Is being cut and is curing rapidly; wheat seeding commenced in some localises and some winter oats being sown; cotton injured by dirt on open bolls. In Kentucky corn and tnhaccociit'ing and fallowing pr greasing; yenerul improve ment in crops. In Indiana the corn and wheat acedhur are llnished in most localities: corn is safe from frost; husking continues; clover yield ing much seed. In Pennsylvania the corn crop has been nearly ruined by the contli ned drouth, ami additional damage was done by the severs storm of the last week of August. In some portions of the Hluto the crop was blown entirely down. Potatoes were nearly ruin ed by the drouth. Fiuitctop., weie n o teiiully shortened by the wind storms, great quantities being blown from the trees. In West Virginia the severe drouth, which was not broken until the Inst of Au gust, has reduced the corn almost to a half crop for the entire state, yet there are cer tain sections where the crop will be almost an average. The conditions of wheat at harvesting was good. The quality was ex cellent, lluckwheiit will be short. The drouth retarded planting and caused much of tbe grain to perish in the earth before sprouting, Fruit will be a poor vleld. Manv upp:e were blown from the trees by the re cent severe storm. Fully half of the winter ntiples were destroyed in this way. The clover seed crop is very short. HOW THEY FINISHED.

C. ) "Hon. W. J. Northern "My Dkh Sin I hardly know how to reply to your letter of the 15ih inst, It seems to me that I am quite plainly on rec ord concerning the financial question. My letter accepting the nomination lo tho prea dency, when read In connection with the message lutely sent to Congress In extraor dinary session, appears lo me to be very explicit. I want a currency that Is stable and safe iu the hands of our people. I will not knowingly be implicated in a Condi ion that will justly make me In the least de er ee answerable to any laborer or farmer in th 'l'nitcd States for a shrinkage iu the purchasing power of tho dollnr he has re ceived for a good dollar' worth of work, or forn good dollar' worth of the product of his toil. I not only want our currency to be of rich a character that all kinds of dol lars will be of equal purchasing power ut home, but I want it to be of such a charact er as will demonstrate abroad our wl dom nd good faith, thus placing upon a firm foundation our credit among the nation of the earth. I want our financial conditions nnd the la-s relating to our currency to sifeand retssuriiig that those who have money will spend and invest It In Ludiiesa and new enterprises instead of boarding It. 'You cannot cure Irlght by calling it fool ish and unreasonable, and you cannot pre vent the frightened man from hoarding hi money. "1 want good, sound and (table money, and a condition of contidence.thut will keep it in use. ' "Within tbe limit of what I have wt-itten I am a friend of silver, but I believe its proper place in our currency can only be fixed by a readjustment of our financial lrgls latlon and the inauguration of a con. Istent and comprehensive financial scheme I think inch a thing can only be entered upon profitably and hopefully after tbe re peal of the la w wh ich is charged with all our financial woes. Iu the preteut state of the public mind this law cannot be built upon or patched in such a way as to relieve the situation, "I am therefore opposed lo the free and unlimited coinage of sliver by this country alone and Independently, and I am in favor cf the immediate and uncondl ional repeal of the purchasing clanse of tne so-called Sherman law. ' I confess I am astonished by the oppo sition in the eenate to such prompt action as would relieve tbe present unfortunate illuation, "My dully prayer I that the delay occa sioned by such opposition may not be the cause of plunging the country into deeper depression than it bus yet known, and that the Democratic party mny not be justly held ieMouible for such a catastrophe.
