The moot appalling mine disaster ever i hronii led in thi section of the Ptwte occurred to-day shortly after noon at the Main-lie coal mine on the Panhandle road near Collier' station.

Wasiiinotox, Novendr 21. The statement wa made in Congressional circle to-day that ('resident Cleveland' message to Congres would throw light on the China-Japan question and would forestall any resolution of Inquiry. As the Secretary of State, unlike the other Cabinet officer, make no annual re port to Congress, the ('resident' message ordinarily deulswith thealTairsin which thi government ha any part, and a the recent negotiation with China and Japan are the most important questions the department ha had in some time, it 1 concluded be will make clear the posi tion ol thia government. I'p to the present there is no olllcial information on the sub j-ct, and the State iN-partment lias not staled officially that negotiations with China and Japan are In prou-reas The reading ol the Tresident'i mesxage 1 the Urst business of Cotign , so that it would precede the contemplated intro duction ol resolution of inquiry by Ilcp- resentatlve Bellamy Storer.

It cannot, of coiir-e. Im known whether the next Speaker w ill follow the seniority rule. If he should, Hermann would Ixiume Chairman. Milliketi ol Maine bads the Ui-piil-lican meuiU-hip of the Committee on l llblic Huildiligx, uud the chaiici-s me, il Ih-ed Ixcomex Speaker, Millikpu will lie madii Chairman ol this committee. Morse ol MaxiiichuxettH is the only llt pulilican Inemlx r o( the committee re turned. (Ililv thren of the old Kepub- luan memlxTs of the Coinmittee on Hanking and Currency are re-elected. They are Walker ol Ma"xachiixettx, bnx- xell ol I onnecliciit and Johiixon of In diana. Walker is the senior member, and his chances for the Chairman-hip are the best. Ol the six prexetit Hepub- luaii meinlH-rs of the lommittee on Coinage, Weights and Measures livehave lai-li re-elected to the I ifty-foiirth Con grexx, I hev lire III the order lliilued Stone ol I'eiiuxvlvania, .lohtifon of .Nnrih I'akota, Hiiiglev of Maine, Hager ol Iowa and Aldrich ol lllinoix. Mum would naturallv hiH-onie Chairman of the committee if he dcxircd the place. In the natural order ol events Hur rowxol Michigan will Ix-coiue Chairman of the Wav and Means I ommitlce. With Heed in the Speaker's chair there is little doubt that he w ill lie given this imiMirtant xt, which curries with it the Kepublican leadership on the Ihxir ol the House, if he fmls in bis ambition tosucci'ed Senator I'alton in the Semite. With Reed in the Speaker's chair and Burrows iu the Senate there would be only three Itepublican tiieinlx rs of the present i-ommutec leit to cmxise irotu, these Ix'ing Payne of New York, lalell of I'cnnxvlvania and llopkinn ol Illinoi-i.

Il is ixixsiblu Ihat neither Can non nor Henderson w ill be given the Chairmanship in the event of Hurrows lai-oniing Chairman of the Ways ami Means Committee; the probabilities are strong that the Fat would demand the Chairmam-hip ol the next mo-t impor tant committee, which would be the Aix- proiiriatinns. In that contingchev t'(.k-.. well s chance" for Ix'ing promoted to the icail of the committee would lie excel- ent. If Heed la-comes Speaker of the House, the liepublican me mlx-rxhip ol the Committee on Holes will probably, cointwed of himsell and the Chair men nl the Appropriations and Wav and Means Committees. Ile pursued this plan iu the Filty-lirst Congress, and there is reason to lx-'lieve that he would revive it rather than imitate Crisp's pol icy of distributing the honors. AMONG THE LABORERS. Mao.
