THAT COTTAGE GIFTV,

The Mtory I hut l«t Hotii* T»M *1 Phlladelphta. Pm?.AnRimA, June 20.-So much comment luw been created throughout Use leugth and breadth of the country over tin* recent acceptance by Mrs, Harrison of a cottage al Gap© May Unit it is •aid that certain people very close to the presidential family have Iteen seriously considering the desirability ol urging upon those responsible for the gift the necessity of making a public statement which. would place tbo matter in its correct light and tend to allay the criticisms that have been and art' still belng rnado. Only tlio fact that such a course would tend to K'tve renewed publicity to Oie gift and thus, perhaps, embarrass Mm. Harrison, has prevented such an explanation being made before this, The truth of tin* whole affair, so it is learned from a ww which ia geuemlly accepted as being beyond question, that neither Poetmsster General Wanamaker not any other man identified with political life was inter* ested to the extent of a single dollar in tbo presentation. The solitary donor wait Mr. (iflojae W. Child*, of the Philadelphia Ledger, and whose fame good works is only boundbv the foug corners of the universe. The Klea originated with him and waa carried out bv him, and, in view of the fart that, notwithstanding his close relationship acquainting htm with more than one national administration, he has never yet asked a president, a Cabinet officer or an appointing power for a single courtesy or favor, It is bold by those in the secret that the comment thai lias been created by the present affair i® peculiarly unfortunate. Mr, ChiMs was aware Umt Mrs. Harrison hail long desired« 'Voltage by U»e »*," and he knew alio that W»6 only thing that stood in the way of her rewiring hftr deslws was the fact tlwtt she wsrionsly questioned the ability of the family exchequer to atand the draft that would be involved.

Piuladkumua, June 20.—The Waah ington and New York expma which left Washington on the B. A O. road at 10:30 last night, waa wrecked at 1:30 this morning, near Child's station, forty-four miles south of Ibis city. The accident was due to spreading of the rails. The engine and sleeping car were thrown from the track. Full details of thedt&gter have not yet been learned, but John McN&mara, fireman, was instantly killed, and several passengers injured.

Charles Ackenheim, chief engineer of the Ststen Island Railroad, was so badly injured he died shortly afterwards. The son of Senator Ingaila, of Kansas, had his foot crushed. Fireman McNamara was killed by a revolving broken irtg broken rod striking the cab and closing it. The following wereinjured: Bishop Kcan, Catholic University of Washington, head cut and badly ruised about the body,

Mr. Pierce, Montclair, N. J., arm broken and Mrs. Pierce injured about the head. They are an aged couple a Uie shock is very severe to them.

HEARD THE PICKS.

Kill! Hop* for U»«.Entombed Slam at Unnbitr. Dusbar, Pa., June 20.—The imprisoned miners have been heard from, Early last evening the men working in the head of the entry through which the rescuing party is working, sent word down the entry to keep quiet. Every one did

bo,

and in a moment "pick, pick" for a dozen limes came the signal from the Inside. Then the men went to work with renewed vigor. They cannot be reached for twenty-four hours yet. The rescuing party is within a few feet of the line leading from the Mahoning to the Hill Farm mine. But after that is reached, the men will have to drive through seventy-flve feet of coal to reach their utipmo3ied comrades. The best authorities in the rescuing party hold that it will b© after 12 o'clock to-day before the men are reached. The former superintendent of the mine was seen. He said: "We cannot reach them for twenty-four hours yet. I have always held that they could be wired, and am more than thankful that we are so near them."

The excitement here this morning is intense. Some of the entombed miners were certainly alive last night* as the of picks could be heard by those who were among the rescuing party, but no further sounds have been beard this morning. The mine inspectors believe the rescuers are now within forty feet of the buried victims, and work is being pushed with renewed vigor. Relatives and friends of the unfortunate men are gathered about, all eager for the slightest indication of newsA number of physicians have been summoned and are at the mine ready to render assistance. An undertaker is also her© should the worst feara be realized.

BALL.

Terrc Sla««« liwwaraa tuiMrjr-Olhrr The game y«stenlay was a well worked •hutnout for the Qnincys, largely due to Shaw's splendid work in Uie box, hacked up vby first-ciasB fielding, particularly on the infield. In five innings the Qnineys hatl a iiian on third base neither of whom were permitted to score, tlu» efforts of Shaw and Uie infield being a little too effective. A hot liner from Fislier'a bat struck Bhaw on the leg and bounded almost to Burnett on first who secured it and put Fisher out, while Shaw, the

lucky little bundle of nerves, gave the Fisher the horse laugh, bringing down the grand stand and the balance of the crowd in great shape.

Langsford's error in tlie sixth inning was so rank that it smelled to Heaven, bat his splendid stop of Murray's terrific hit in tlie seventh inning evened things up and restored the levee gang to their accustomed good nature.

All waa n^t alieolutely serene on the liquor dealers' horixon this moraing. Hie moat prominent figures among the sellers of the ardent—at least some of them—were floating mysterioasly about Wall street, holding curtain consultations with their counsel. No one seemed to know what was upt but everybody had an idea^-'l that a movement was In the embryo to arrest the enforcement of the $260 liquor license ordinance. The dealers had a private meeting with their lawyere at Justice Felsenthal's office last night, but no evidence of what they did had come to the surface at noon to-day. There was no especial rush of saloon men to the treasurer's office this morning to pay the 1250, and whether this really presages active opposition to the enforcement of the law remains to be seen.

In the event of some of the dealers failing to take out license to-day, and continuing their business to-morrow, arrests will be made and test cases will follow. What point or i&ne the lawyers for the saloon men propose to raise—if they really propose to raise any—ia not yet known. The constitutionality of the stats law empowering municipalities to impose a $250 license has been conceded by the Supreme court,, of Indiana^ and of course, this question is set at rest finally. It is the supposition among many tnat in their defense the saloon men wilt question the'legality of some of the records or proceedings of the common council.

Said a leading Third street saloonist "No, I am not going to pay the license until I am compelled so to do. I have tbe money in hand,however, with which to pay the license, and am willing to deposit It in either of the banks, pending the settlement in court of the legal status of the ordinance recently passed by the council. I wouldn't care to take out the license only to find afterward that the ordinance was legally invalid and that I hatl forfeited my money. No I shall not take out the license under any circumstances until I am forced to do so."

Another saloon keeper in the West Side expressed himself very plainly in the same strain, and without doubt it is generally understood that the liquor venders will not pay in their city license fees until some one of their number is arrested and prosecuted and the points in question are finally established.

At 3 o'clock this afternoon forty licenses had been granted by City Clerk DuddleBton.

It is reported that the saloon men

will oppose the enforcement of ihe ordinance on the technical grounds that its phraseology ia not in strict consonance with the requirements of the statejjw governing the matter.

•O AMONG THE POLITICIANS.

Aomethintf of tbe Xnslde Work of the Present Cnmimlgii. Lightning never strikes twice in the same place, it is said, and it may be asserted with equal truth that it is a difficult matter to follow the footsteps of candidates in this campaign or determine upon their methods when the same vary th every change of the weather. It was a matter of no little comment last night that Al. Schaal and Billy Stout were both claiming the solid delegation from the Fonth ward, and it was furthermore hinted by several Democrats from Rabbittown that Jim Fitzpatrick had fixed Uie delegation from the ward, as a dead sure thing for Schaal. This becomes interesting when brought to face the positive assertion of mom than one strong friend of Billy Stout that Fitzpatrick, less than two weeks ago, pledged his support to the ex-«uperintendent of police. Verily, the mystery becomes absorbing.

Then, as a matter of unwritten history, Sam Itoyse and Maje Smock visited the northern rolling mill one day this week and innocently got himself Into a snap that will undoubtedly weaken his chances for tile nomination for recorder. Maje went up there to work a delegate. He shook hands with him, Mid when he withdrew his hand left 60 cents in the palm of Uie delegate's fist Smock merely intended that the money should be used In "acttin' *eih np" to a block of the mill hands. The money waa returned to the donor and the delegate made the air smoke with angry expressions. The trouble was the delegate took it lor granted Maje wanted to purchase his influence and accordingly gave hiavto understand, with wonderful volubility of tongue thai he waa not a 60-cent man. The affair caused unpleasant comment and Maje will certainly loose one delegation, entire, in consequence of his act.

Old Sixth ward Democrats are & Btfte ap in a«n« that Jim Wallace, who has only lived in the ward three months, should have no strenuously insisted on receiving the support of the ward before the convention for the nomination for recorder. Then Wallace wanted to be a slate delegate. He had just thirteen votes in the primary while Pete Foley secured seventy-seven. It la a little hard to underatand down in the Sixth what Wallace want* La* than four months ago he expressed his Intention of running for the modte^i office on an independent tick*t,which waa tobe sported by the Farmers' Alliance. The _.Unoe has thus lar nemaincd nm-com-mitUl on the question of smifportiBg either of the candidate*, and the entire group in the race Jfor nominations are all umdked wit hi their efforts to aMKrtsin what if an action the alliance way take as a body. .•

THE TIMES ON HARRISON

A CriiteUum

on PmMkMit,» Aete— fUlrer 4|aewttoa.

Nbw York, June 20.—Tbe Times thw morning, commenting on the silver bill and President Harrison's probable attitude towards it, says "We are not of those that have been given to overweening confidence in Banfeon. The profeeeions he has made not merely of good intention, but of respect for principles of religion, have seemed to us strangely in contrast with the tilings lie has done or permitted. But he ha$ never seemed to us of the type of the calculating hypocrite. He has seemed blinded to thiB contrast rather than consciously contemptuous ef it We cannot forget he was & brave, faithful and modest soldier in the cause of his country during the rebellion. A character tempered by sncceasfully passing that ordeal must retain a fibre to meet fairly civic tests if they present themselves clearly. We are not only willing but anxious to believe that if Uie honor of the country and the safety of its finances were seen by him to be threatened, as it is plain they would seem to be threatened by a free coinage bill, he would defend them with all the power of his office, whatever the consequences to his own political fortunes."

TIN PLATE CLAUSE.

Million Dollar Fond to Down one Clause of the TarMf Bill. Pittsburg, June 20.—The Tin Plate Record claims editorially that tin plate importers In this country have been assessed $10,000, and the English syndicate, which controls the manufacturers and mines in Monmouthshire and Cornwall, has augmented this sum to nearly a million dollars in order to defeat the tin plate clause in the McKinley tariff

A Fearfnl Aecldeal,

Mrs. Williamson, living on Chestnut street, met with a terrible accident yesterday afternoon. She was showing the hired girl how to draw water at the well, when the latter let the bucket slip from her band. This jerked the windlass from Mrs, Williamson's hand and it flew around at a terrific rate and struck her in the face. Her lower jaw was badly torn, and Uie blood flowed profusely from the wound.. Medical aid was summoned and to-day she is somewhat better. The injured lady is the wife of J. H. Williamson, traveling salesman for the Keyee Buggy Company. This is the second accident of this kind within a week.

Twentv-tbree boarders and lodgers at tbo St Charles H( :1 were overlooked, and would probably have never beep counted had it not been for Den Stunkard who looked tbe matter up, and finding that not a single member of Uie party hatl been censused, reported Uie matter, and last night they were seen by the ennmwator. A few such cases as this and Terre Haute's population would show a backslide over the returns of 1S70.

The residents of Uie upper floors of Main street blocks report Uiat the enumerators have not been at all careful or inquisitive in regard to the occupants of such buildings. Tbey have simply asked the questions in regard to the parties interrogated and left without making inquiries as to wheUier or not there are other occupants of the building. By such omissions as those Uie value ol the work will be considerably lessened and its accuracy made questionable indeed. Ii the remuneration had been more substantial and the whole affair, at least in this cityv had not been worked for political buncome, a force of competent enumerators could have been secured whose work would have been complete, accurate and reliable. It is to be hoped that the supervisor and his corps of enumerators will make the most oi the extension of time allowed and hunt up the missing ones.
