MAitsriFlELD, Or., April 12. A frightful accident happened Tuesday afternoon at the government rock quar ry on South Coos river, in which Hen ry Bartell and William Garrison were blown up with powder and both ser iously hurt. The men were at work blasting rock, Thev had used a number of sticks of giant powder to spring the bole and Ia ter put in some black powder, but as it was jammed in the hole the men had to put fuse to it to blow ltout.This they did and then before the hole had sufficient ly cooled from the last powder, they started to put in the final charge. Bar- tell had a keg of black powder in bis hands and was pouring it in the hole. Garrison was standing by to tamp it, but when about two quarts of powder bad been poured in the hole it ignited and.an explosion occurred. Barteil'B face was fearfully burned, but the sur geons say he will come out all right. Garrison's bands were badly burned. S. R.

The bull clique In the wheat market was after big gamo yesterday and apparently bagged some of it. The famous plunger, Ed. Partridge, seemed to be the person aimed at, and he was unmercifully crowded. It Is said, as a result of tbe day, Partridge was a poorer man by (760 000. He was thought to bo still short of enough to lose him another million besides the losses of yesterday J partridge ahead today. Tbe threat of a dollar a bushel for May wheat seems about to be realized today. Everything seems to be con spiring with tbe big bull clique, beaded by tbe multi-millionaire pork packers aud speculators, Mlcheal and John Cu- daby, to make life a burden to Part ridge, tbe big bear. With a terrlflo roar May opened at 00, an advance over night of 81 cts. It was supposed this would bring tbe big plunger down but ho is apparently still in the ring by a large majority and the clique seeing IU mistake, began pounding tbe market with heavy offerings. Inside of five minutes the quotation was .84. A series of wild fluctuations between that figure and .00 followed, till the ex citement exhausted Itself, and at tbo end of tbe first hour, the market was comparatively steady at 0 cents, under tbe opening figures. Patridge Is on tbe floor, dlreotiug operations of his brok ers, in person, and Is evidently unruf fled. His apparent mastery of tbe sit uation elicited admiration even of those opposed to him. After 1:80 there was comparatively no trading in either May or July wheat. Tbe 8wuU. Washington, April 12.

Latest U, S Gov't Report RoYal && ABSOLUTELY PURE TOE PAPAL POLICY Established by Leo XIII to Be Overthrown. COAL MINE HORROR IN WALES. SociaNste Demand Universal Suf frage in Belgium. The Pope's Policy. London, April 12. A dispatch from Rome emanating from high authority states the Italian government Intends upon occasion of holding the next papal conclave to issue a brochure declaring that tbe next pope ought to overthrow the Democratic policy established by tho present pope, and become recon ciled with tho qulrlnal work. It Is said it will also declare Pope Leo's suc cessor should favor an alliance between Germany, Austria and Italy. The dis patch adds that in official circles it is greatly feared Pope Leo's successor will bo a foreigner. Liberals especially dread the election of Cardinal Gibbous, of Baltimore. Olllcials of tho Vatican laugh at the idea of the proposed bro chure having any effect. They smile also at tbe other attempts tho Itallau government had made or may attempt to make for a change in tho pope's poll oy. The ecclesiastical authorities be lieve tbe'Democratlc pblicyof the'pope has obtained such a firm hold upon tht minds of tho people It will become tra ditional and other popes will live up to It. Goal Mine Explosion. London, April 12. A spark from an engine ignited gus in a coal pit near Pontey Prldda, Wales, and caused a frightful explosion. Three hundred miners were entombed. Seventy men succeeded in reaching tho surface through the main dip, led by a mluer who knew tbe roads. They had a terrible struggle to get out, forcing tbelr way through fire aud smoae. At 0:45 o'clock last evening it was still impossible to obtain more than meagre details of the accident. Tbe men who saved themselves were too confused and frightened to observe tho positions of tbelr fellow worklngmon. They are unable to stive any clear account of tbe distribution of the miners and tbe work of rescue must therefore proceed under all difficulties of uncertainty. At present the flames and smoke would render any attempt to rescue vain, if not fatal to the party making descent. There Is little doubt, more over, but most, if not all oj the men below are suffocated or burned to death. A second attempt to enter tbe seam in which the fire started proved resultless. Although the rescuing party saw six dead bodies, they were prevented by smoke and beat from reaching them. London, April 12. Tbo fire In tbo mine at Point Yprldd, Wales, iu which so many miners are entombed, Is about out, but gases are so thick that It Is still impossible to explore for rcmalus of the dead, or search for those who may pos. slbly be alive.

Caused at San Francisco By the Flood Defalcation. Ban FitANOisoo, April 12. It tran spired that the amount of ex-Cashier Flood's dafalcatlon from tho Donohoe Kelly bank Is $104,000 and a sensation baa thereby been created in financial circles. Tho bank officials have hereto fore lutlmatcd that the cashier's short age would not bo over $25,000, but the facts were disclosed this afternoon when suit was filled by tho bauk against Flood to recover $180,000. The com plaint alleges that in tbe last year he misappropriated $104,000 and has reim bursed the corporation only in $25,000. Flood stoutly affirms bis innocence aud declares that when the case comes to trial he will be perfectly able to place himself right before tbe world. It la Intimated bo has been botrayed by the perfidy of a frleud. Flood acknowledges that the money was abstracted from the bank in a, lump sum and the shortuge was not mado up of a series of speculations ex tending over a series of years as has beon supposed. Flood also confesses that tho defalcation occurred since March 4th. But what he did with It and why ho took It Flood absolutely refuses to stato. He has been a man heretofore of upright life and Flood said he had paid It out over tbe coun ter in tbe usual manner to persons now out of the Jurisdiction of the California courts, He would not divulge their Identity even under duress, but de clared the bauk was at liberty to hold him accountable and send him to prisou. He cheerefully gaye up prop erty worth $25,000 In partial reparation, Flood had been with the bank thirty years. The theory is advanced by Bom'o that he has voluntarily sacrificed his liberty aud reputation to shield others, llo suggested to President Donahoo that ho might make disclos ures before his death, which might be in a couple of days, seeming to Imply Intentions to commit suicide.
