DEATH IN THE MINE. Nearly Fifty Lives Lost by Explo- sion of Fire Damp, NEW HAMPSHIRE DEMOCRATS MEET. Ex-Gov. Campbell Looking After His Boom. THE KENTUCKY DERBY. NEARLY FIFTY LIVES LOST. ‘Terrible,Explosion of Gas in the Coal Mines at Roslyn, Washington. Rosixx, Wasuixeros, May 11.—The first ac- cident of any note at the coal mines in this place occurred yesterday afternoon just after the afternoon shift had gone on. A driver had just come out of the slope when a tremendous explosion occurred. The shock upset his car, knocked mules and driver dewn and bruised a man standing 100 fect away. ‘The report was heard ull over the town a mile away. ‘The mouth of the slope was surrounded by an anxious crowd, which grew in size every minute. Hard rain was pouring down, but the crowd heeded not. The number of men in the slope is not actually known, but it is known to be from forty-four to fifty. There is scarcely any possibility that one of them escaped death. 1 slope in which the oxplosion occurred rans from No. 2 down to a point where the pred shaft will be sunk, and is a couple thousand feet in length. —Sev- eral levels buve been worked in the slope, and it: in conjectured that the explosion occurred at some point on the fourth or fifth level. For the past two months more or jews danger has been connected with the work in this part of the slope on account of the unusual generation of gas, and the mui ment is credited with having exercived the usual precautions. ‘The air courses were in process of construction in the ben cage vicinity of the oxplosion with the intention of joining bands. It is presumed that when the two courses met the explosion occurred, ‘Persons who were at the opening of the slope Pronounced the concussion terrible. it being sufficient to throw a coal car some distance from a point where it was standing near the entrance. Greut volumes of after damp and smoke rolled from the entrance, making the approach dan- Berous. As soon as it was posible to enter men set to work, byt progress was impeded by omoke and damp, whic the tunnel continued to emit. At’ 4:30 o'clock the — first bodies. were reached, being those of John Bone and John Cumpbell. After that the work progressed more rapidly, and at 6 o'clock two other bodies were brought out, and at 7: two others, all terribly burned and mutilated. Those whose bodies were recovered are: ‘Tom Brennan, Tom Rees, A. Pollard, John Bowen, H. Campbell and Wm. Hague. FORCE OF THE EXPLOSION. As progress was made the frightful execution of the explosion became more manifest. Tim: bers were torn out for hundreds of feet and the whole interior was fearfully wrecked. It ix thought a fire was started in the lower level and arrangements are being made to turn on water as soon as the fact in developed. Air fans are working to their full capacity and every effort ia being made to recover the bodies of the imprisoned mon, All miners in camp who are able to work have volun- teered their services and men are work- ing constantly in sbift. From the fearful babies 24 of the slope interior and the doubt as t to he existence of fire in the lower level, there is no way of determining how soon all the bodies can be recovered. Several of the bodies that have been taken out are badly mutilated. In one instance the head was severed from the body. This is the second gas explosion that has oc- curred in the slope within the past two months. The first resulted in the death of a negro driver, to whose carelessness the accident was at- tributed at the time. Ex-Supt. Ronald, who was in the employ of the company then, said the slope work was dangerous to an unusual degree, recommended extraordinary precautions, It is stated that Acting Superintendent Harrison has been very careful with the work, and cau- tioned the men to observe that their lamps were in proper shape when entering places posted as dangerous. At midnight fourteen bodies had been recov- ered and identified. Work of recovery is very slow on account of the large body of gas. It is now almost certain that every man in the mines is killed and that the dead will reach forty- eight. SCENES AT THE MINES TODAY. Manager Kangley says last night's explosion was caused by gas, which wasg probably lighted by a match or the careless use of a lamp. The true cause of the accident will never be definitely known, as no one has escaped to tell the story. Thirty- three or forty-three of the miners imprisoned are married and their widows and families clamor wildly at the entrance to the slope. Many of the families are entirely destitute. es NEW HAMPSHIRE DEMOCRATS. The Convention Assembled at Concord and Officers Chosen by Acclamation. Coxcorp, N. H., May 11.—The democratic state convention to choose delegates to the Chi- cago convention was called to order at Phanix Hall at 1105 a.m. today by John P. Bartlett of Manchester, chairman of the state committee. The officers and committee selected at the incet- ing of the state committee last night were elected officers of the convention by acclamation. Oliver E. Branch of Weare was escorted to the resident's chair. On_being introduced by Ehairman Bartlett Mr. Branch was warmly re- ceived and made a rpeech. Mr. Branch’s address was warmly received, references to ex-Presideut Cleveland being loudly applauded. The committee on creden- tials reported 687 delegates entitled to seats. Mr. Ureh of Portsmouth created a sensation by saying that he came to represent ‘who had grievances against the democrats who had held and aspired to further high honors at the hands of the party. “I charge,” con- tinued he, “Grover Cleveland and his past ad- ministration with disloyalty and unfaithfulness to the rank and file of the democratic party.” ‘Tho speaker was interrupted by storms of hisses and cries of ‘Put him{out,"and “Never.” The excitement was intense for a short time. When confusion subsided Chairman Branch ruled Mr, Urch out of order. A motion mado oy oceed to ballot for Aclegates-att ane table the motion. His motion was postponed and.balloting ws then proceeded wit ‘Mr. Sanborn submitted the platform and Mr. Urch moved to strike out the name of Cleve- land and substitute that of Hill. There were hisses and cries of “Shut up!” “Sit down!” “Put him out!” and the ruled the motion out of order. The platform was without further objection. platform calls for economical expendi- tures and low taxes, denounces protection and cordially indorses Grover Cleveland. ‘The delegates-at-large were chosen nearly unanimously and they are Harry Bingham, Frank Jones, Alvah W. Suttoway and George B. Handler. Alternates—D. W. Johnson, J. W. Goodwin, E. C. Robinson and N. C. Jameson. The convention then adjourned.

It ts Said That Mr. Cleveland Will With- draw in His Favor. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Covvurvs, Onto, May 11.—Ex-Gov. Camp- bell has received some news from friends which bas caused a flurry among his political friends here. There was » hurried conference of his confidential advivers, to whom he confided his telegram and asked their advice. It was decided that the situation in the east the democratic tial nomina' was such as to make it advisable for the ex-governor to be on hand to look after bis interests, and he will probably leave for New York today or as soon as he can arrange his business intereste to be absent. It is understood that the ex-governor has been informed that Mr. Cleveland has become convinced that it will be impossible for either Hill or himself to carry New York, and that a new can te must be selected, and that he had determined to write a letter to this effect, and it will shortly . Im that letter be will discreetly allude to the troubles of the New York democracy and gracefully withdraw from the rue, but in doing so will place the tariff queetion right at the front in the issues of the day and deprecate the discussion of the ‘silver question at this time. No reference to the caudidate will be made in the letter, but it is understood that Mr. Cleveland will quietly throw all his intin- ence to ex-Gov.

Mr. Sherman from the committee on foreign relations, reported two amendments to be of- fered to the consular and diplomatic approp tion bill—one being to increase from £25,000 to $30,000 the item for the international bureau of American nblics and the other to insert an item of 285,000 tor Payment of the United States’ share of the ex- penses of the prelitainury survey for a conti- nental railway, recommended by the interna- tional American conference. ‘Several bills were taken from the calendar and passed. House bill to give a pension of $12 month to the invalid daughter of an army officer (Anv Morgan Burns) was taken up and, the report having been read. the consideration of the bill was objected to by Mr. Cockrell, on the ground that it would establish a precedent which would open the doors to the pensioning of every sick and helpless child of any man who bad served in the army.

Mr. Sayers (Texas) presented the conference report on the urgent deficiency bill. Mr. Sayers explained that the bili as agreed to appropriated about $250,000 more than it carried when it passed the Honse. ‘that that $250,000 was made up principally of two items, which, had they been brought to ti attention of the House, would have been i corporated in the measure when it was original! under consideration. ‘The conference report was agreed to. THE ALLIANCE MEN WANT RECOGNITION. Mr. Beltzhoover (P’a.) demanded the regalar order. Mr. Watson (Ga.) appealed to him to with- draw that demand m the interest of fairs There xeemed to be some understandin tween the two sides of the House that recog tion should alternate. But the third party 1 ceived no recognition, although none of its members had made objection to requests for unanimous consent. He wanted to get au op~ portunity to call up the resolution requesting subtreasury Dill, Mr. Beltzhoover said that he had call the regular order without reference to atv orany measure. He thought thet the House should go on with its regular business. Mr. Watson gave notice that hereaft alliance members would object to all r for unanimous consent, and he emphasized t notice by objecting to’ Mr. Holman’s request that the call of committees be dispensed with.

No one desiring to continue the general de- bate, the Dill was read by paragraphs for amendment. MR. MOLMAN AND THE MINT. Mr. Holman moved to strike out the appr rintion for £620,500 for the purchase of a site \d the commencement of a building for a new mint at Philedelpbia. He did not think th the work need be entered upon at this tim: ‘The old mint would answer every purpose of the, pecoent ‘The expenditure of this moncy be well postpor the med. Mr. Otis (Kan.) aleo favored striking out the clause. Mr. Bingham (Pa.) was surprised that the chairman of the appropriations committe should wish to strike out this clause. It was | ‘one of the few items in the bill wnic the law, and the appropriation was in accord- ance with the estimates of the department. Mr. Bingham then proceedes! to argue that the | it mint at Philadelphia wns entirely in- | adequate, and he fortified his conclusion by citing the recommendation of the Secretary of the Treasury and the auditor of the mint. THE SILVER QUESTION. Mr. Bland offered an amendment to the sun- dry civil appropriations bill requiring the coin- age and issue in payment of appropriations of the silver bullion now in the treasury. Mr. Tracey made a point of order ugninst the | amendment, and Mr. Cockran moved to further amend by suspending the further purchases of silver bullion.
