TELECRANS 10 THE KEW YORK HERALD. Lonpox, Sept. 21, 1873, At the session of the British Association, at Bradford, yesterday, Captain Markham, of the Royal Navy, who was on board the Arctic when she received the men rescued from the Polaris, gave a detailed account of the voyage \of Captain Hall, which he gathered from the ‘members of the expedition. He said “the Polaris occupied only five days in making the distance from Cape Shakleton northward to latitude 82 deg. 16 min. This ‘was the nearest point to the North Pole ever reached by civilized man. The ice was soft ell the way, and a stronger vessel could have -attained a much higher latitude.”’ BRITISH COMPLIMENT TO AMERICAN RESOLVE. The London Observer to-day closes a eu- ‘ogy on the late Captain Hall as follows:— “The rude wooden monument to the intrepid American, standing alone in the Polar soli- tude, is at the same time a grand memorial, a trophy and a challenge.”’ ‘The Mombers of the Expedition About to Embark for America, Lonpon, Sept. 22—6 A.

WASHINGTON. Wasninaton, Sept. 21, 1873, Commissioner Brunot’s essful Nego- tiation with the Indians—Three Mil- lion Acres of Mining Lands Obtained. Hon. Felix R, Brunot, special commissioner under act of Congress, April 23, 1872, to negotiate with the Utes, accompanied by Thomas K. Cree, Secretary, and Dr. Phillips, Span’sh interpreter, arrived at the Los Pinos agency, Colorado, September 6 The agency is located in the Cochetopa range of mountains, 250 miles west of Denver, and was only reached after five days’ journey in a carriage. The Utes had been waiting the arrival of the commissioners for some two weeks. The Labequanche, Denver, Muache and Capote Utes were represented in council. There were special diMculties in the way of a successiul negotiation, surveying parties representing the gen- eral government, the military and the Territory being on the reservation in violation of previous agreement, running lines according to which certain parts of the reserve were ex- cluded as such, causing much iil-feeling among the Indians; in addition to which the annuity goods shipped from New York June 1 had not yet reached the agency, and the distribution which the commission hoped to make at the council could not, therefore, be made. The council lasted several days, and the result was the ceding to the government by the Indians of ali the mining country, some 3,000,000 acres, being most of the land lying between the thirty-seventh and thirty- eighth degrees of latitude and the 107th and 1osth degrees of longitude, except a narrow strip on the southern side, on which many of the Utes had farms, On this it is proposed to gather the Wenninches, Muache and Capote Utes and a portion of the Jicarilla Apaches, now at Tierra Acnavilla and Cimarron agencies, New Mexico, This arrangement dis- poses of the two troublesome sub-agencies, and gathers these wandering bands of Utes upon this reservation. The price for the land is to be given mostly for the support of the new agency, and for those Indians for whom there has been heretofore no regular provision made by the government. The part ceded is rich in mines of gold and silver, some 400 mines and some valuable machinery being now upon the reservation, One company at work upon the part ceded is taking out $1,000 per day in silver ore. The Utes have always been friendly to the whites, and for the past two years have permitted miners and progpectors to wander almost at will over their reservation, although the treaty expressly stipulates that the gov- ernment will prevent all whites from going upon the reservation, The arrangement with the Utes is not a treaty, but only an article of agreement entered into in accordance with an act of Congress authorizing the negotiation. This is the agree- ment which Governor McUooke’s commission tried to make last year, but jailed, It is a second successful negotiation for a cession of Indian lands to the government made out by Mr. Brunot this year. Dividends to the Creditors of Insolvent Bank. The Comptroller of the Currency is paying dividends of twenty-five per cent to the creditors of the First National Bank of Rockford, IIL; 100 per cent to the creditors of the First National Bank of Fort Smith, Arkansas, and thirty-five per cent to the creditors ofthe National Bank of Vicks- burg, Miss. ; dividends of thirty-five per cent to the creditors of the First National Bank of Selma, Ala., and of fifteen per cent to the creditors of the Atlantic National Bank of New York will be paid as soon as the necessary schedules can be prepared.

The eminent physician, Dr. Auguste Nelaton, of Paris, who has been prostrated by a severe attack of illness during some weeks just past, enjoying at intervals sudden changes for the better, suffered a relapse during the day on Saturday, the 20th inst., and, his strength failing rapidly, died at a late hour the same night. M. Nelaton was born on the 17th of June, in the year 1808. Educated for the medical profession, he was placed as pupil of Dupuytren, and received his degree of Medical Doctor at Paris in the month of December, in the year 1836. Soon afterwards he became surgeon to the hospitals in the French capital and a member of the Facuity of Medicine. He was chosen Profes- sor of Clinical Surgery in the University in the Month of April, 1851, and, in 1856, was admitted to the Academy of Medicine in the section of Chirurgi- cal Pathology. He was a ciose observer, & practical student anda careful and enlightened practitioner. Decerated with the Legion of Honor, in 1848, he ‘was promoted to the rank of officer June 16, 1856, and to that of commander on the 2th of January, 1863. M, Nelaton introduced a new operation for stone In the bladder. He was voluminous as writer and publisher on subjects connected with his pro- fession. The Doctor was made @ member of the French Academy of Sciences on the 34 June, 1967, and soon afterwards retired from his fessorsht} on account ofill health. His reputation is work wide and his character universally esteemed. Rev. E. W. Hatter. Rev. £. W. Hatter, pastor of St. Matthew's Lutheran church, Philadelphia, and a prominent American divine, died in Philadelphia yesterday morning, aged sixty-one years, to the great regret of the members of his congregation and a wide circle of personal friends of various religious denominations.

McClure’s Military Academy, at Oakland, was en- tirely destroyed by fire last night, The loss will Provably be $40,000, NEW BOOKS. Form has so much to do with the effectiveness of lgerary exccution nowadays that it seems necessary even where substance ought to take Precedence, and fact is constantly dressed in the garb or fiction, The latest example of this is Frances Elliott's “Romance of Oid Court Life in France,” published by D. Appleton & Co. The work is apparently a novel after the Mtthlbach pattern upon first open- ing its pages, but the reader soon finds that it labks the pretensions to plot of the Muhibach pat- ent historical romance, and the only resemblance is in the adoption of the conversational style. The book begins with Francis L, but its pictures of the captivity of the King and its descriptions of his two mistresses, Diane de Poitiers and tne Duchesse d’Etampes, though interest- ing, are far from being as picturesque as they might have been painted. ‘The subject was one far more entrancing than that of “George l. of England and his Maypole and Ele- phant,” yet the superiority of Thackeray's treat- ment of the latter shows that force 1s of little con- sequence as compared with skill, And in the pic- tures of the famous personages which follow— Henry II., Catherine de Medici and her three royal sons (Francis IL, the first husband of Marie Stuart, Charies IX. and Henry III.), Henry IV., the famous Henry of Navarre, who came so near being one of the victims of St. Bartholomew's Day, and the charming Gabrielle D’Estrées, whom he loved with the devotion and the perfidy of a king; Louis XIII. and Richelieu and Loutse de Lafayette, and Mlle. de Hautefut; and of the dissolute court of Louis XIV.—we fina nothing like the graceful pencil of a Thackeray or the glowing pages of a Macaulay. But we get glimpses of men and manners and places and things that in themselves are charm- ing, and these are brought into nearer view than in the old Frenca memoirs from which they are taken. It is diMcult to turn from a book £0 full of Inter- est to “The Son of the Organ Grinder,” even though Mme, Schwarz is its author. Schwarz is a Swedish lady who began to write in 1852, and has since published upon an average not fewer than two books a year, Schwarz’s first work was called “Slander,” and her later books are on equally high and loity topics. Schwarz has five works which have not yet been published in Sweden. “Tho Son of the Organ Grinder” first appearea in 1863 in Swedish, and it is only now translated into Eng- lish by Selma Borg and Marie A. brown, and pub- lished by Porter & Coates. Having waited ten years for it in its English dress, we could have waited ten years more without serious embar- rassments. In a word, Schwarz is of no in- terest to anybody, and if English readers had never heard of her it would have been all the better. There is no excuse for incompetent translators—translators who make peopie say “I will tell you’ for “I invite you” or “I ask you,’ and, speaking of an hour’s con- versation, inform us that “the Professor had spoken to him for a whole hour’—putting books like this upon the market and ta'king nonsense about Schwarz writing tor the world, “Edmund Daun,” a novel by Ravenswood, which is just published by G. W. Carleton & Co., begins as follows :—‘The morning rays had dispelled the dark- ness of night; the genial effulgence of a bright May day broke upon the great city of New York, A mixed population crowded its thoroughfares; the din and bustle of busy li'e filled the air and from thousands of chimneys arose the smoke of industry, In a street noted for its grandeur, in a mansion the home of luxury and fashion, sat Dora Elveston. Looking through one of the spacious windows of her apartment her eyes rested upon the clear, blue sky, which imparted comforting softness, Dora was an orphan.” What a dénoue- ment this is for the war of the “morning rays” upon the “darkness of night,” the operations of the “genial effulgence” upon the “great city of New York,” “the din and bustle of busy life’ and the “smoke of industry.” Dora Elverton—sweet name—was an orphan, who sat in an apartment looking, not at “the thousands of chimneys,” but at the sky, her apartment being in a street ‘noted for its grandeur,” which, in turn, was in @ man- sion, “the home of luxury and fashion.” Few or- phans could do as well. ‘Edmund Dawn” contains_} 300 pages of trash as fine in every way and worthy of perusal as @ punishment for the past sins of novel readers. Ina handsomely printed little volume, entitled “Scottish Chaff Books,” Mr. John Fraser has published an excellent essay on the literature which formed the intellectual food and amusement of the people of Scotland for nearly a hundred years, The humorous chaf books of Scotland were to the literature of the Eighteenth what light fiction is to that of the Nineteenth century. Mr. Fraser’s essay seems only an introduction to a collection of the chaff books themselves—to be published, we presume, in the future—and it is well worth the perusal of all who are curious in literary history. A collection of Christian Reid's shorter tales has been published by the Appletons with the title “Nina’s Atonement and Other Stories.” They are generally well drawn pictures of every day life. Mrs. Ann 8, Stephens has written, or published, or republished another novel—her twenty-first. This one is called ‘“‘Bellehood and Bondage.” It is Dot @ great book, but it is really entertaining, when one wants to read a novel with nothing in it. Mr. Henry Morford has just published a book of poems, which he calls “Rhymes of an Editor.” The title of the book has no relation to Its contents, the poems being mostly on the topics which would engage the attention of a man of literary taste and leisure in his rhyming moments. They are not great poems, and they are not bad enough to be- come facetious over. Some of them will find ad- mirers, and one of them, ‘“‘A True Chevalier of the Legion,” strikes us as being a particularly vigor- ous specimen of homely verse making. Weextract some of the best stanzas :— I went on the boat at Dover, To cross to the coast of France, On a bright and sunny morning of a certain late July; And at the bridge T encountered man with an eagle giance, Who forbade my smoking, aft-ward, and gave me the reason why, One ginnce revealed the captain Of that fine mail-packet boat En Frangais nominé “L'Eeume,” and in English called the “Foam,” But ‘twas only on the passage, On the lappel ot his coat, That I saw the bright red ribbon which marked his Gallic home.— The badge of the Legion of Honor, viich Talwavs bow.

A Strong Centralized Government Wanted. e President Grant’s Administration Strongly Endorsed—Ku Klux in the South. KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 19, 1873, Having made arrangements the evening pre- vious with Colonel John B, Brownlow, Senator Brownlow’s son and private secretary, accom- panied by that affable gentleman, your corre- spondent had an interview with this distinguished man, whose reputation, from that of a Methodist itinerant and subsequently as a country editor, has become national. Taking into consideratiou his extremely active life Senator Brownlow bears his sixty-eight years bravely, although to those who know him weil it is apparent that he ia slowly failing phys yet his intellect ts as mory a3 tenacious as when atoriat chair of the State. I make this allusion to his health because periodt- cally the statement is made by some of the demo- cratic papers thathe is at the point of death; while, to judge by the vigor of the dentals of this by the republican press, one would almost be forced toconclude that the Senator was as fond of muscular exercise as the late distinguished owner of Chappaqua, and that his favorite method of re- laxation was either with the axe or between the plough handies, I was ushered into the family sitting room, where the Senator passes most of his time, and found him reclining on a sofa. He received me most cordially, and, after the usual courtesies had heen exchanged, proiessed a willinguess to give his views, not only on Cmsarism but any other subject of national interest, adding that the HERALD was exerting a leading influence on cosmopolitan journalism and disseminating its views wherever maf service existed, as he had ex- perienced on more than one occasion, having re- ceived letters from Europe and the Indies from gentlemen who had seen expressions from him in its columns, Two prominent rebel gentlemen were in the room, having been warm personal friends of Sena- tor Brownlow in aiite-bellum days—one an ex- Judge and the other a leading divine in the Metho- dist Church—who had called to pay their respects before leaving Knoxville for their distant homes, One of them, glancing at a portrait of Henry Clay, which hung over the sofa, and one of Andrew Jackson on the opposite side of the window, re- marked, “How is tt, Governor, that you have the extremes in politics meeting. Here you have the Sage of Ashland, while equally exalted is bis abd your old foe, the hero of New Orleans.” Senator Brownlow replied, pointing, with a smilie, to Mr. Clay’s portrait:—‘Tle was my politi- cal idol, and in him I had the most abiding con- fidence; 80 much 80, in fact, that had he been alive in 1860 and favored the establishment of a Southern coniederacy, I expect I wouid have fol- lowed his leadership. But I have never secn the day when I would follow or co-operate with the chiefs of democracy in anything, not even a pil- grimage to the other world; for I shouid expect to be shipwrecked on the voyage, as was Paul, or meet with some other terribie mis/ortune. I fought Jackson as long as he wasin active political life, but his intense love for and devotion to the Union cover a multicude of political heresies, and for such Thonor him as much asIdo the memory of Great Harry of the West.’” The visitors shortly thereafter took their leave, when the conversation was resumed. CORRESPONDENT—The question of Cmsarism is now attracting a great deal of attention, and the discussion having commenced in the columns of the DrraLp, the management of that paper are desirous of obtaining the views of prominent men throughout the country on the subject. AN EMPIRE PREFBRAGLE TO DEMOCRATIC RULE. Senator BRowNLow—Cwsarism, either considered Uterally or in the abstract, l regard as an absurdity and the cry of domagogues, gotten up by the enemies of the administration, As regards the democracy of to-day and Cwesarism, I stand now where I stood in 1890, when, though it was not safo to avow sentiments akin to abolitionism, I publicly declared in aspeech that my first choice for the Presidency was Bell; my second, Dougias; third, Lincoln; fourth, the Devil, and fifth, Breckinriaye, And now { would, rather than see the government of the United States in the hands of the rebel-seces- sion democracy, prefer that Grant was Emperor for life and the country an absolute despotism. CORRESPONDENT—Are you, then, in favor of a third term for General Grant ? Senator BROWNLOW—1 am, decidedly, and believe his re-election is demanded by the best interests of the country; though, as @ party man, | would sup- port the nominee of the national republican party, whoever he might be. Of the effects of his adimin- istration all can judge, Why, sir, there are few sections m the South where there {s not material prosperity prevailing and a due observance of law and respectiul regard soanifested toward the gen- eral government, its agents and ofiicers, In Ten- nessee this is a truc, and we are getting on ploriously. attribute this happy condition of afluirs to the firm and judl- cious administration of General Grant. The recollection of his victories in the field exercises a wholesome influence over the lawless elements of the South, and they have a dread of violating the laws whilohe is at the head of the government which they bisdey 54 have were any otver man in the Presidential ur, It is because I belleve tt to be to the interest of the South, as well a8 of the whole country, that [am IN FAVOR OF HIS RR-RLECTION. Put any one else in the Executive chair, whether clvilian or military chieftain, and we would have a repetition in all the Southern States of violations of the constitutional amendments and oppression of the colored peopie, which we now sce in THE GOD-FOKSAKEN, HELI-DESERVING STATR OF KENTUOKY, As extremely opposite, the Senator here handed me a copy of the Knoxville Daily Chronicle, con- taining the following editorial extract from tne Loutsville Courter-sournal :— If Kentucky had @ Governor more interested in pro- tecting the éitizens of the State avainst outlawry and rufianism generally than in preserving triendl, Uons with the elements that can be made go serviccabie in controlling the local political machinery, the tenders of these robbing, murdering miscreants would have dangled from the’ gallows long ago, and thelr followers been shot, Imprisoned or driven from the country. But, though for three years Owen, Henry and FrankiIi counties have been under a reign of terror; though for three years murder, robbery, arson and brutalities of ail kinds have been perpetrated by gangs ot men #0 confl- dent of their strength as to almost court personal iden. tity; though the leaders are known to a large number of citizens in each of these counties, the Governor'sears re- main closed to all appeals for protection, and even the Publication of the long catalogue of horrid crimes docs not grouse him from his stupor. These are “retiahle” counties They can be counted on in elections, and we suppose His Excellency knows who run the machine, CORRESPONDENT—That certainly is a bad state of affairs, and it is surprising that pubite opinion does not aid the law in putting a stop to these deeds of violence. SENATOR BROWNLOW—Public opinion really sus- tains the Ku Klux, Why, sir, here we have the leading democratic organ of Kentucky charging the democratic Governor of that State with being in collusion with the Ku Kinx bands, and tailing to take any measure for their suppression, becanse he looked to the leaders for support, and at the Same time men are being murdered and ail man- her of outrages committed almost under tho shadow of; the State capita About the first I heard or read on this subject of Cwsarisin ‘was an assault upon the republican party and eral Grant as desiring to establisi imperial pow was ‘rom this same democratic Governor of Ken- Who patronizes the Ku Klux banditti aud 4 fair sample of the Southern demugogues who assail Grant on this subject. Knowing their intentions in regard to their rotten conledoracy they Covad suspect the motives of others, and having failed in establishing their slaveocracy they Baad wish to keep up a reign of terror in the country. CORRESPONDENT—At what strength do you rate this Cresarism movement or idea, and of what class do you think it composed ? Senator BRowNLow—Thelt numbers are insig- lish anything. Why, fhere are enongn orfginat Catow aten hay ae the army pti ane revelious {ulate the last one of the uurepent- NDENT—You are aw > siderable stress is jald upon the inet sh rit ton and several of the earlier Presidents were not |" candidates for a third term, and the framers of oy SgReS eH Aen Jrote avarse to re-election the fieiadont ler that such was their Senator BROWNLOW—Certainly not. Had not the founders of our government contemplated the pos- sibility of such an event they would have incorpo- rated a clause expressly forbidding it. Hence a third term does not conflict with the letter or spirit of the constitution. I regard this outburst of pretended patriotism as the merest dema- goruery, and Ihave not the shadow oi s doubt but Sua WASHINGTON OR JEFFERSON WOULD HAVE acceeTED the candidacy tor a third term had the interests of the country demanded itjand they had been situated as General Grant now is, Indeed, it isa fact well known to many of the older citizens of Nashville that General Jackson for a long time seriously con- templated running @ third time, and only relin- quisied the idea on account of failing health; and ifhe had done so he would have been triumphantly elected by as large a majority as waa GRANT OVER MR, GREELEY, CORRESPONDENT—Is it your opinion, Governor, that General Grant will be the next republican candidate ? Senator BRowNLOw—Well, !t is rather early to prophesy, but events are tending in that direction, and my opinion is that he will, He is certainly the most prominent candidate now, CORRFSPONDENT—You have said, sir, that General Grant was your firet choice, and that you believed he would be @ candidate, Do you think he will be elected if he does run ? Senator BkowNLOw—OI course I have no means of preety. the result in advance, but there is not the least doubt in my mind that, should he yield to the wishes of his party and again enter the lists, he would a third time be OVERWIELMINGLY ELECTED. CORRESPONDENT—From your knowledge of the political situation, what do you think, Senator, of the future of Tennessee? Senator BRowNLOW—I believe that, with har- mony and proper effort, the republican party will carry the State at the next election. The masses are thoroughly disgusted with their democratic rulers, and (grimly), a8 bad as they represented my administration, when order had to be evolved from chaos, their disgrace fal conduct has rendered mine eminently respectable by contrast. CORKESPONDENT—Returning to national affairs, I would like to ask if you think the Liberals will put Spreaiaeneay ticket in the feild at tue next elec- on Senator BROWNLOW—Oh, no. Their mission was accomplished last Bovey, and, being a mongrel concern, the discordant elements composing tt baving nothing in common; the party—li I may be allowed the misnomer—will fall to pieces, if, in- deed, it has not already done so, and those com- posing it will revurn to their old organizations, CoRRESPONDENT—You referred a while ago to a statement made by yourselfon the stump in 1861 that you Bregiced that Mr. Lincoln should be elected rather than Breckinridge, the leader of the secession democracy, but at the same time ex- peer @ preierence tor Bell aud Douglas over Lincuin, In view of the fact that your then leader, John Bell, aiterwards went into the rebellion, [ presume your support of him in that canvass is one of the acts of ous political ue which you would like to recall Senator BrowNLow—Yes, I frankly confess that I was mistaken in Bell. 1 never would have voted for him had | not maypaaed, him incapable of yiel ing to the storm which I then saw was appro ing. Edward Everett was true, and rendered great service to the country ey his maguificent ‘War speeches; but my old triend Bell was CAPTUKED BY THE SECESSIONISTS, and, from conversations had with him since the war ended, I know he deeply regretted having yielded. On his return to Tennessee he came to iny oltice, in Nashville, and asked me to accompany him to General Thomas’ headquarters to procure his parole, apprehending that he would be impris- oned and tried for treason, which request I com- plied with, aud the parole was readily granted by General Thomas, wuo treated him in the kindest possible manner, CORRESPONDENT—A great hue and cry has been mace about the népotism of the President. Do you sce any insidious attempts to Cwesarize or Na- poleonize the government by the appointments to office so complained of? SENATOR BrowNLow—Nepotism and Csarism are loud sounding words, but practically amount to nothing. In appointing some of his relatives to oitice General Grant has only followed a precedent long established, and imitated Mr. Polk, Andrew Johnson and others, I have always believed in a STRONG CENTRALIZED GOVERNMENT, and believe that such an one would not confitct with the just rights of the States, and if I had the wer | would erabody the writings of Alexander amilton and the precepts of the federalist in the course of study im every in- stitution of learning throughout the land, and thus inculcate fanaticism in the breasts of our youth. In Javoring a strong na- tonal government of the kind Ihave named, | do not claim to represent my party, but I have enter- tained these views all iny life, and cast my first presidential vote for John Quincy Adams against Andrew Jacksou in 1823, because of my federalism; and feeling thus, though @ pro-slavery man, as is well known, I = the secession of the Southern States in 1s61. CORRESPONDENT—Do you think that General Grant would attempt to override the law and at- eemDs ae remain in office by force, as his enemies arge Bonator BrownLow—No sir. In the first place General Grant is @ patriot in the Jullest sense of the term, but if he was so ambitious, he is of too well balanced a mind to attempt @ coup d'état such as on Which Napoleon wenl into power. His ad- ministration has demonstrated that he isa far abler man than even his friends thought. I know of my own personal knowledge that HE WRITES HIS MESSAGES HIMSELF, Alexander H. Stephens read him more correctly than any of the uthern democratic leaders. There never has been @ man in the Presidential chair with less disposition than Grant to assume absolute power or to subordinate the civil to the inilitary, and at no period in our history have the laws been more Feely executed. Were it not tor the respect with which be has inspired the law- less elements in the South by his firm and just ad- ministration, we would have this much-talked-of Cmsarism in its worst form in every Southern Slate—i. e, the Ku Klux democracy, whose only law is force, and whose hatred of the negroes i8 PE es against the government that freed them. CORRESPONDENT—What do Pid think will eventu- ally beoome of the Ku Klux Elans? Senator BrowNLow—As the laws are enforced against them the bands will disperse, and in smali bodies they will resolve themseives into ban- ditt! and continue to commit their atrocities when- ever they think it safe, They will burn steamboats, government buildings and warehouses; throw railroad trains from the track, and perpetrate all manner of crime. CORRESPONDENT—Do you think there is any con- nection between THE KU KLUX AND THE COMMUNISTS OR INTER- NATIONALS? Senator BrowNLow—I think it doubtful. They are all born of crime and disorder; but | regard the Ku Klux as by far the most dangerous class. ‘The tnterview here terminated, and, aiter thank- ing him for the courteous attention with which I had-been received, your correspondent took bis leave, satisfied that there was considerable “life in the old land yet; and that General Hill or “any other man” who considers the lion dead is wofully mistaken, POLITICAL NOTES.

A Fuller Account of the Bx losion and Fire in the Mines. List of the Miners Kitfed—Wers!sm of the Men—The Fire Stik Spreadiag. San Francisco, Cal., Sept. 20, 1573, The following futler particulars of the mining disaster at Gold Hill, Nev., have been re- ceived :— Shortly before three o'clock on Friay afternoon @ flre was discovered burning in the 1,300 foot level of the Yellow Jacket Mine, north of the shaft, An explosion of gas soon occurred, which nearly knocked down the men standing at the moutn of the shaft, and caused the cages, which were raised to that point, to jump up seviral inches. Smoke came rushing up the shaft at the same time, Knowing there must be flre or something wrong below, an alarm was given, and tho engine sounded the whistle of the works. The alarm was quickly communteated to the Fire Department, and in @ short time the firemen, with their machines, were at the scene and 4 stream of water was pouring down the shaft. Captain Cosgrove, ot the Sarsfleld Guard ; Charles Kohler, Chief Engineer of the Yellow Jacket Works; Jack Donahue and others were busy putting in a pump to send water from the 1,500 foot level of the Yellow Jacket Mine through to the Imperial snaft by a drift which con- nects the mines at the 1,300 foot level of the Yellow Jacket Mine, and in a few minutes more would have completed the job, The three men whose names have been mentioned were at the 1,500 loot level when THE EXPLOSION occufred at the 1,309 foot level. Those above warned them of the danger, and they saw a heavy volume of smoke pouring from the drift into the shaft. They succeeded in escaping through the Crown Point Mine. The force of the explosion waa felt strongly in both Crown Point and Belcher mines, and an alarm was communicated with panic quickness. Miners hurried to the shafts as speedily as possible, and effective hoisting works, with double cages, brought them to tie suriace, The force of the explosion blew out the lights in the 1,000 foot level, and in continuous parts of the twa mines men were thrown violently off thelr feet. Several miners were missing. It was known that some must have been Killed or so injured that-they could not escape, As soon as the great rush waa over parties went in search of the killed and wounded, and succeeded in finding six. ‘Tom Niles and Thomas Cussick were sent up first. They werd soon followed by four others. Kive were found ip the 1,100 foot level vi the Crown Point Mine, where they were working. They were evidently KILLED OR FATALLY ASPHYXIATED by the deadly gaa forced in by the explosion. The sixth and last was {from the 1,800 foot level of the Yellow Jacket, and was the body of Louis Louis. selle, a blacksmith. Niles lived about an hour after reaching tho surlace, Mudd lived fous hours. Waters also lived a short time, but neither of them was conscious for a moment. Cussick died on the cage while being brought up. Broadwater and Louisselle were dead when found. George B. Mudd, partner of James Waters in the Crown Point Mine, was another victim of the dis- aster. He was suifocated by gas passing into tha 1,100 foot drift. Thomas Niles was engaged in re- peri the drift of the 1,100 foot level of the Crown oint Mine, When the gas overtook him he was eating his supper. He was brought to the surfaca alive and survived about an hour. Louis Louis- selle, the underground blacksmith at the Belcher Mine, lost his Hie while BATTLING HEROICALLY with the destroying element. When his body was recovered his face and hands were found to be badly scorched. Captain Cosgrove urged him re- peneealiito abandon his attempt to subdue the ire, as his efforts were futile; bat he would not leave his post. His body was found about 200 tect from the locality where the fire was raging. Mr. W. 8. Broadwater was found lying on his face alongside of the car track, about forty feet on the east arift from Jacket Switch. He was em- loyed as carman and was on Jacket Switcn with atte Langhorn at the time the first explosion oc curred. James Waters, another victim of the conflagra tion, was working at the time in the Crown Point. He was suifocated by smoke gas while attempting to escane. Albert Burt, one of the underground foremen at the Belcher Mine, worked herotcally in. rescuin, his men. On going down into the mine a secon: time to see that the men were safe and the lights out he was overcome by the gas and was brought up in the cage insensible, bis hands grasping the crossbar of the cage with A DEATH GRIP. The services of the men were required to loosca his grasp. Albert Lackey, underground foreman of the Belcher Mine, while endeavoring to save the, lives of his men, was badly burned about the face’ and arms. Lackey was one of tho last who leit t! Belcher Mine. Chief Jones, of the G Department, had the middle finger of his rig! hand cut off at the firat joint while going into ¢ Crown Point Mine on the cage. iiiam Jones, foreman of Liberty Engine Company No. 2, whila fighting the fire, was Mapes by asphyxiation, He 1a, however, in u fair way to recover. It ia reported to-night that the fire in the Yellow Jacket Mine 18 gaining, and that it bas reached tue ea foot level. Two hundred men are fighting the e703, = = E } THE YELLOW FEVER.
