SEVERAL LIVES KEFOISTED LOST.

or More.
.Rockaway BEAcn, L, I., Sept. 20. A
conflagration started at noon, which
threatens to wipe out a large section of
this resort. The seaside museum, Foley's
hotel, Messmers' hotel, William
Burgess' hotel, Murray A Dalz hotel
and the grand Ocean hotel are all ablaze,
and undoubtedly will be destroyed. The
whole population has turned out to fight
the fire, but their efforts will be of little
avail as there is a scarcity of water, and
a strong breeze blowing which fans the
flames. The fire departments of Rock
away, Lawrence and Woodsburg have
been summoned bv telephone. It is re
ported 20 lives arc lost. The lire broke
out in the museum on Seaside avenue,
situated on the, most thickly populated
part of the beach, where ail are frame
buildings. The flames spread .with as
tonishing rapidity and soon reached the
opposite side of the street. All the
buildings on both sides of the way on
Seaside avenue from a point" near the
site of the old Seaside house, which was
destroyed by fire a few years ago seemed
to be doomed. The Long Island railroad
depot was destroyed. Mrs. Bertha
Kingsland, wife of the proprietor of the
Kingsland hotel, was badly burned while
trying to save some effects. Two other
ladies, guests, were also severely burned.
The Long Island railroad is transferring
fire companies as fst as possible on flat
cars from Inwood, Ozone Park, Far
Rockaway, Woodsburg and Lawrence.
At 2 o'clock it looked as though all the
buildings on Seaside avenue would be i
destroyed. If this proves the case, the
loss will be fully $400,000. The cause of
the fire is not yet explained.
A Nciv Hawaiian Cabinet.
San- Francisco, Sept. 21. The steam
er Australia arrived from Honolulu at
noon t6day', with news that the queen
has appointed the following new cabi
net: Edward C. MacFarlane, premier
and minister of finance; Samuel Parker,
minister of foreign affairs; Charles T.
Gulick, minister of Interior; Paul Neu
.mann, attorney general.
The appointments gave great dissatis
faction, as they were the old ministry
over again, witn two exceptions, iviac
Farlane and Parker have changed places
and the others retain their portfolios,
Parker and Neumann were very obnox
ious to the opposition, and it was
against them that the want-of-confi-dence
motion was particularly aimed.
The day the Australia sailed a want-of-
confidence motion in the ministry was
tabled by a vote of 24 to 22. An ad
journment wae then taken. The fight
was to be resumed the next day, and
the opinion seemed to be that the min
istry would be forced to resign.
The bill introduced in the legislature-)
to grant the' Louisiana state lottery a
twenty-five years' franchise to maintain
a lottery in the Hawaiian islands is uni
versally condemned, and the concensus
of opinion is that it will not pass its first
Jrfading. .

which developed today. The principals
are John P. Williams, one of the wealth-

Fourth National bank, and Mrs. V.
Booren, wife of a prominent citizen.
Thiri morning Mr. Booren issued a cir

P. Williams, I would have blown his
brains out long ago. He has been very
intimate with ray wife for the last six

ave of putting them before the public.
Williams is a heartless villain, and I am
not afraid to say so." The affair has

THE CLACKAMAS HATCHERY.
A Scarcity of Salmon and Obstructions
1'nr'nt Good Operations.
From the Oregon City Enterprise-
Of late the work of the Clackamas
hatchery has been considerably hamper
ed by the inability to get salmon. Last
season so little was done that the fish
commissioners tuougni -jsenuuaiy
abandonimr the concern. This year
however, the state commissioners or
dered a fishway put in at the dam of the
Gladstone sawmill company, which has
been the chief hindrance to fish ascend
ing Ithe stream, and the fishway was
built according to the directions of ;the
commissioners. But it is a small and
extremely "crooked passage into which
it is impossible to coax the salmon. A
salmon of any considerable Eize cannot
turn the sharp angles in the narrow
passage. A new fishway has been prom
ised at that point, and it must be put in :
at once or the necessity for it will have
passed. ' ';
Th r.Iar'knmas hatcherv has a eapa-r f
city for handling 12,000,000 to lo,00U,UUU
salmon eggs a season, uui. iwimj
1 V... cnnvnalir mnrO '
than 5,000,000 have been obtained any
year, and for the last three years not so
many. In 1S89 the first eggs were taken
August 2S, and only about 4,000,000 were
hatched.- The next year eggs were
taken September 10 and last year Sep
tember 8, and the hatch was scalier
each year. This season nothing has yet
hppn donn. nwim? to the absence of the
salmon, and the prospect is not a bit en-
couragingsfor a large product.
W. F. Hubbard has been superinten
dent of this hatchery from the beginning
under the Oregon and Washington fish
propagation company. He attributes
the dwindling of the number-hatched to
the inability of the salmon to ascend the
Clackamas to the hatchery by reason of
obstructions in the stream. --About i0,
000 salmon eggs from Maine were re
ceived here last winter to be hatched
and the young fish to be4iberated in
Oregon waters, but the eggs were spoiled
and not one would hatch. If 12,000,000
or l.),000,000 young Chinook salmon
were liberated at this hatchery each
year it is probable that the effect on the
Columbia fishing interest would Boon be
noticed.
The business of hatching salmon roe
artificially was begun on the Clackamas
river, about seven miles above its con
fluence with the Willamette, in 1S77, by
the Oregon and Washington fish propa
gation company, which was composed
almost entirely of lower Columbia can
nerymen. This company bought about
fifteen acres of land, and erected the ne
cessary buildings-, and prosecuted the
work of propagating Chinook salmon
for four year3. Then the plant remain
ed idle until 18SS, when the state took
the matter in charge, put the plant in
repair, and ran the concern one year.
The next season, the United States fish
commissioner obtained possession of the
hatchery, paying the state about $4.0M
for the improvements it had made dur
ing its year of work, and receiving the
remainder of the property free from the
Oregon and Washington fish propaga
tion company, which owned
it. It is
now entirely i-. United
tion."

St. Lovis, Mo., Sept. 21. Chairman
Taubeneck, of the populists national
committee, received a summons by wire
today to hasten to Indianapolis to at
tend a meeting of the national executive
committee tomorrow. When he was
asked what-tbe object of the Indiana
meeting was, he replied : "Now, iTiave
an idea, as severat members of the
national committee will be in attend
ance, but I will give out nothing for
publication as yet. I will say that there
is a big deal on, and if I chose to make
it public I could make a sensation in
every close state in the union, and sev
eral other states that are not considered
doubtful. There is a gigantic deal going
on in three states, but I will not give
out the names of the states or the nature
of the scheme being worked. It will
come to light in two or three weeks, and
then I will be prepared to give some
startling information ; but I don't care
for the sensation to originate in populist
partv headquarters, and it won't, if I
can help it. I will probably be able to

Heads late yesterday afternoon, states
that September 12th he spoke the Ameri

Oregon stated that he had been damaged
in a Hurricane two weeks previous,
while bound from Astoria to New York
with a cargo of wheat. The damages
sustained by the Oregon were almost
identical with those on the "McCallum,
only the rigging had suffered more. The
main-mast was badly sprung, the main
topmast had been carried away, the bul
warks were damaged, the cargo had
shifted slightly, and in the hold there
were seven feet of water. The Oregon is
making for this port, and will probably

The Drawing Card In Portland.
Oregonian. The single track locomo

which is intended to work a revolution
in railroad building, was hauled out to
the exposition building last evening.
It was set on a Eection of the peculiar
saddle-shaped track, which was placed
on a low truck" with block wheels. Six
horses hauled it to the corner of Sixth
and Washington streets, where they
were stalled. A chain was run out
ahead of the team and attached to a
truck with four horses. The first at
tempt to start was a lauure, but a sec--ond
trial proved successful, and the ten
horses and their unwieldy load moved
off up the smooth pavement without
any trouDie. - . - ,

BELOW THE SUHFACE
LIFE THOUSANDS OF FEET IN
BOWELS OF THE EARTH.
THE
la the Depths of the Conistoek I-ode.
' Doings In a. Great Subterranean Cliy
with Hundreds of - Miles of Streets
Where Work Never Ceases.
Very different is the life led by the
ininer of ' the Comstock lode when on
duty from that- of the old California
gold washer. The scene of his labors is
hundreds of feet beneath the earth in
subterranean regions to which no ray of
suniigut ever penetrates. Dr. .Quille
says or tne uomstock miner that when
he descends the gTeat shaft, going down
ana snil down from 1,000 to 3,000 feet,
he leaves behind all the gTand tipper
world, so Droaaly and beautifully lighted
up by the sun. When landed at his sta1
tion from the car (cage) of bis vertical
cable road he steps forth into quite a
different world a world hewn out by
tne nana or man in the realms of eternal
darkness, which, jnst beneath the sur
face crust, everywhere enwraps our
planet. - - .
All is not dark and dismal in this arti
ficial world. On the contrary, the great
stations, the main working drifts and
crosscuts and the large chambers of all
the principal levels are lighted np with
lamps and candles. In one of our great
mines there is neither day nor night; it
is always candle light. Absolute pitch
darkness prevails only in some far away
and little frequented drifts in distant
parts of a mine.
When landed at the station of his
level, dinner bucket in hand, the miner
trudges away along a narrow subter
rauean road to some drift or chamber in
which lies his work. When on duty in
the depths he knows not whether it is
day or night in the world above; whether
it is cold or warm there, calm or tem
pestuous. - : ,
The miner of the Comstock lode may
he said to live and labor, in a city be
neath a city. There are streets and
crosscuts through which he may travel
miles and miles at points from 1,000 to
2.000 feet beneath the cities on the sur
face Virginia and Gold Hill.. The
great underground city in which is sui
lieient lumber to build twenty towns,
each of 0,000 people, has its busy places
as well as, its lonely and silont- nooks
and sections. At the stations of the
great hoisting shafts, where many men
are employed on the several levels, cars
loaded with ore are seen arriving and
departing. ' -
IX THE 1JF.PTH8.
Great lamps . with glaring reflectors
(similar to the headlight of a locomotive)
light np the station, which is an under
ground hall large enough for a first class
ball room; and the main drifts radiat
ing from the station to different "parts of
the level also have their lights, the line
of which extends so far away' that the
most distant seen seems a mere spark or
point or light, like the most distant star
visible in the heavens a mere pulsing
twinkler. - - - .
The station has much the appearance
of the store or lumber room of some big
factory of the surface world. Along the
floor against the side walls are. seen
coils of rope, boxes of candles, tools and
many small lota of various other arti
cles required on the level. Also in the
station is seen a huge cask of ice water
water in which several small icebergs
are floating and against the side of the
cask hangs a big tin dipper; that is, it
bo hangs when it has a moment's rest,
but it is almost constantly in" the hands
of some thirsty soul.
At each level (generally about 100 feet
down the shaft from the point where
ore is first encountered) there is snch a
station as 1 have described. It is the
centor of life on each level, though at
several points on the lovel there may be
at work in the ore breast considerable
squads of men. From such sections of
the mine at certain times come the
booms of blasts, sounding like a distant
cannonade. When one is in a drift in
the vicinity of the spot where one of the
big dynamite blasts is fired one feels
more than heara it. - The concussion of
the air in the narrow drift painfully
strains'tue drum of the ear, and even at
a distance the sensation is disagreeable.
HIGH TEMPERATURE.
The mines of the Comstock are now
much better ventilated than before
drifts connected the several main shafts
and winzes of the many levels. Still the
work of the miner is often in a hot and
stifling atmosphere. Very frequently
his work is at the face of a long pros
specting drift, where the only air he has
to breathe is the- scant supply pumped
down to him through a pipe from the
surface, as though he were a pearl diver
fathoms beneath the sea. The place m
which he works at times shows a tem
perature of from 100 to 110 degs., or
even as high as 120 degs. In such places
he is stripped of' all clothing but a
breech clout (heavy shoes protect his
feet and he wears a cap to keep the sand
from the slaking rock out of his hair),
yet perspiration streams from every
pore of his body.' But for the gallons
on gallons of ice water he swallows he
would be baked in his skin like a potato
the very life blood would be dried in
his veins. "
Though sweltering and gasping the
miner must still swing his pick or sledge,
must still handle a shovel or crowbar for
a certain length of time till the end of
his "pass" (of fifteen to twenty minutes),
when he can pass out of the drift to the
cooling off station and send in his part
ner to work his "pass." -
For the dangers a miner must brave
and all the suffering he must endure
from heat and bad air (insufficient or
vitiated) four dollars a day is by no
means too large a sum to offer him foi
eight, hours' work jn the sweltering low
er levels. Simply to remain eight hours
in the subterranean regions is worth
something, not to speak of toiling that
number of hours at the hardest of work.
Visitors who enter the heated regions of
the silver mines usually find that merely
to walk through the various drifts, floors
and chambers is about all they care to
endure in the way of exercise. New

"When i was in London I stopped' at
the Langham. I intended to combine
business with pleasure.
"I expected to sell a few thousand of
our. Irrigation Canal bonds. The day 1
arrived I strolled down stairs and into
the hotel office. - ,
" "I was staggered to recognize several
faces from New York in the throng.
"They were faces, too, of fellows whom

"They were generally seedy and seemed
to be waiting for somebody to' 'blow them

they ever got to London or what
they were doing I don't know. One thing
I do know, they spoiled my game, for I
never mentioned bonds to any one during
my eight months' stay.
"No wonder London is a suspicious
market for American investments."
Thus a. gentleman, just returned from
the other side, held forth on some of the
New York promoters he met in London.
This class of "promoters" is a peculiar
ly New York one. They make a pre
carious living by bringing labor and
capital together. -
The capital they join to labor is not
their own far from it. With the true
spirit of the broker, they give the benefit
of their experience and business ac
quaintance to others and pocket only
their commksions. '
That is about the only thing pocketed J
m the whole transaction, except the
bitter, bitter memory of tho laboi'er or
produce;-. ' - -
A short time kiucs Sir. Jason Idle-
wild, a highly rospcted citizen of Paint
ed Post, came to Mew. York.
He brought with him his latest inven
tion, a compound centrifu-'al churn,
He had a feelin in bis simple, sub
urban mind that each a:i-.l every resi
dent of Fifth avenue was losing sleep
because the hired girl could not get the
slammed milk waic.i is sold to uuso
pUinLicatcd city folks to produce the
proper amount of butter. So he hied
himself to this city with his churn model
packed in a dry goods case. Visions of
untold wealth xvere in his mind.
. Now, if there i.-i any one in tins wide
world who can put an inventor, on the
right track it id thia class of ' -promoters. "
One of these individuals scented the
festive granger and his packing case
full of churn. . So he took him gently
hi tow and piloted him right up against
capital.
What Mr. Idlewild did not learn of
"controlling interests, charters, treasury
stock" and other mysteries of corporate
companies wasn't worth knowing.
After he had paid his "broker the com
missions and expenses" he went home.
Of course he was made vice president
of the "Compound Centrifugal Churn
company." . When he struck his native
heath again the Painted Posters con
gratulated him on his success.
His old occupation of rising with the
lark at dewy morn and gathering the
early varieties of hen fruit seemed irk
some. Hia dutie3 as vice president of the
churn company did not interfere with
his regular farm work not to any great
extent. -He was only required to be
vice president that was ail.
But it all ended as it usually does
and the suffering citizens of Fifth ave
nue continue their struggle with an in
ferior grade of butter.
The poor,' hard worked trustee of
somebody's estate may have tried to
knock Jay Gould out of the street. But
Jay has an "anchor tied cinch" on that
particular portion of this somewhat
wicked metropolis. .
Now, the trustee would not for the
world be dishonest or work any wrong
to the fatherless or the widow. He
therefore fills up his safe with stocks
and bonds. These he buys from the
"fake promoter" for about fifteen dollars
per thousand. - - ;.
- True, the value is hardly up to the
amount of his trust, but that is the trus
tee's business.
So ho turns over to his wards us beau
tiful a lot of bonds and stock certificates
as ever escaped a junk shop.
And then the titles "Alaska, x uca-
.tan and Cape Horn Railroad First Mort
gage Bonds" and the 'Bungtown Water
Works Company's Bonds." and others.
Who shall say it is not a goodly lot?
In the matter of providing purple and
fine linen wherewith they may be clothed
and food whereby they are nourished
these handlers of prodigious financial
schemes these links between capital and
labor are not in it to any great extent.
They know that the" great financiers
are not given to pointed toe shoes and
strap seam covert coats. "
Therefore, if their own- coats are a
trifle shiny, if their trousers do have
whiskers on the bottoms, if their shoes
are rather gone at the heels and their
derbys are of tha crop of three years
ago they have their example in the mas
ter minds of finance. -
. Most .of these "promoters" are too
strong to work. While their wives can
keep their houses filled with boarders at
six dollars a board, why should a "pro
moter" bother his head about where the
staff of life is to come from?
It sounds well for any boarding house
keeper to inform tho compiler of vital
statistics for. the city directory that her
husband is "a broker." ' ...
Again, the table talk at dinner time is
much enlivened by the fh-okor's descrip
tion of "how Jay milked the market."
The boarders fail to grumble and fall to
wondering why he did no!- dine with his
friend Jay. - ,.
One peculiarity of this "promoter" is
his watchword, "tomorrow." -v
Alas I for frail humanity, who believe
that "all things come to him who waits,"
the "promoter" fails to bring the day for
"closing the deal" ninety-nine times ont
of a hundred. New York Recorder.
