Julv 23 There is much excitement in the town of Ed wardsville iust across the river. Kor several days subterranean sounds have been heard coming from the Kingston Coal Company mines. The residents knew what the noise meant, and pre pared to vacate their houses, but the crisis came today before they expected it and the earth sank. The area allecled covers fully 50 acres and the damage ia great. The earth is broken and cracked, as if an earthquake had occurred. There are great holes huge enough for a hors and wagon to tall into. In other places there are large criuks that run in all directions for half a mile or more. The streets are seamed and broken, all the wells have run dry and water and gas mains are rubied. Many houses went over whim the crash came, and even the foundations have collapsed. Several families are rendered homeless and have sought shelter of more fortun ate neighbors. As tlie land is useless for Iurther building, that, portion of the town is ruined. Several hundred thousand dol lars would probably be necessary to put ihe interior of the mine in condition. The settling has not yet ceased, and the people are still vacating their houses.

The excursion was engineered bv a white man named Paekelt and the notorious "Doc" Kennedy, a negro who has achieved considerable renown in the South as the originator of financial hoaxes. When the party got to West Point, Miss. , $iitll) was retired to make the trip. This was $.'1 more per person lor those intending to go on tp Chicago from St. Louis. About this time the majority of the dupes of Kennedy and his partner re fused to pry any more. A few, however, paid the required $:i and they started for Chicago.

ArjKiASorLE, July 24 Great excite ment prevails in this vicinity over the tragic events growing out oi the accusa tion that Jewish butchers killed a Greek child as a religioUB sacrifice. The gov ernor of Roumaiiia has proclaimed tho district under military law, fearing otherwise that the inhabitants would use force against the Jews. The alleged murder occurred at the village of Mustapha pasha, about 21) miles from this city. The corpse of a Greek giri eight years of age was found m the river and the doctorB de clared that she had not been drowned, but had been strangled and thrown into the water. All the butchers in the place were Spanish Jews except one Greek named Stelanos, w ho swore the girl had been strangled in the manner of the Jewish blood offering. Stelanos suddenly disappeared and later his corpse was found in a sack on the bank of the river. His body was covered with stabs. Sus picion tell on the men whom Steianos iiad accused, and live of the Spanish butchers and two ol their apprentices were arrested. One of the apprentices, a lad named Quianui, confessed that the live prisoners had committed the mur der of Stefanos and paid him to carry the body in a sack to the river. The mystery of the girl's death is yet un solved, but in the military trial which is to be held it is expected some facts will be brought to light. BARM INVESTIGATION.

Governor Patterson, Auditor-General McCamant, ex-State Treasurer Livesy, Kemble and Elkins, presidents of banks and the editors of nearly all the Philadelphia newspapers are expected as witnesses. Subpienas have been flying around thick and fast. Respect for tho official position of the governor prompted a simple letter of re iuest instead of a snbpiena from the commissioners. No reply has yet been received from him. The flurry created by the story about the magistrates has not subsided. An investigation of this end of the subject will undoubtedly come in its order.

London, July 24 A telegram from Constantinople says that a serious anti Jewish riot has taken place at Jaffa, where for some time past Russian Jews have been arriving in large numbers, despite the imperative orders received by the authorities from the Porte that no Jews be permitted to land, except those going on a pilgrimage to Jeru salem, and these only upon a solemn agreement to return within a reasonable period. The expelled Russian Jews refused admission into any of the countries abut ting unon Russia took advantage of the pilgrimage clause in the Turkish order of prohibition and entered the Turkish territory in such large numbers as to at once arouse suspicion that a large major ity of the pilgrims were immigrants ol a most undesirable kind. Accordingly the authorities absolutely refused to admit any more of them, whether pilgrims or not, and the Jews stood firmly on their religious rights, which they declared had :,een respected by the government at Constantinople and could not be ignored by any of the Sultan's subordinates. The latter did ignore them, however, and a savage light onsued, necessitating a considerable reinforcement of the local military beiore the disturbance was quelled, in the melee a number of Jews were killed, a much larger number injured and several soldiers were hurt. PHINCE FEKIIN'ANO's M A Itltl A U U. London, July 24 Advices from Sofia state that deep interest is felt in the Bulgarian capital in the outcome of the family council, which it is expected will be held at the estate of Archduke Joseph in Hungary in a few days. The meeting is understood to most deeply concern Prince Ferdinand, inasmuch as it is be lieved to have been called to discuss the matrimonial prospects of the Bulgarian ruler. Prince Ferdinand and his mother are to be present and the Princess Stephanie, widow of Prince Kudolph of Austria, and her mother. The Queen of the Belgians will also attend, together with several others connected by birth or marriage with the Coburg family. Current gossip has it that the real purpose of the gathering is to discuss the possibility of a matrimonial alliance be tween Ferdinand and Stephanie, an event which would require the sanction ol the Emperor and Empress o( Austria and the rung and Queen of the Belgians and probably arouse the opposition of many other courts. khanco-husmian alliance. London, July 24 The 1'aris papers are filled with expressions of pleasure at the reception ot the irench fleet at Cron stadt, though everything was carried out in accordance with the program previ ously announced, which of course de tracts from its importance as an event of special significance. A few ol the more conservative jour nals content tnemsetves with thanking tne Russian government lor its honors to tho French flag and its courtesies to the French ollicers, but the more vola tile of tho Parisian editors profeBS to see in the extension of courtesies to the French fleet a strong tendency to .the in evitable Franco-Hussian otlensive and defensive alliance. Though the latter view is expressed chietiy by journals of little or no influ ence, it is bv (ar the most popular, even among persons of admitted political s'anuiiig ana sagacity. A SOCIAL SENSATION.

The otlieers entered later and surprised the pair. They were promptly marched to the station and this morning were each fined $10 and costs before Justice lluch ling. The young soldier paid his tine, but the girl, who was a servant in a house near the armory, went to the house of i orrection for 30 days. The affair has created a tremendous social Bensation. The squadron is com posed of young men of the wealthiest tamilies and of the best social standing.

Tlie Vatican has declared that the protocol of the new triple alliance will not contain any clause concerning the next conclave of cardinals, Monsignor Galimberti, the Pope's nuncio at Vi enna having succeeded in preventing the introduction of the proposed clause in the new treaty.

Some influential representatives ot labor organizations advise the miners to recede from their positson and agree to active armistices (or 60 davs, and there is hope that a peaceful solution will be reached in that way, It is known that Governor t.uchanaii will not under any circumstances seriously consider any thing which has the appearance of com promising the state. The troops will not move for several hours if at all today. Vast stores and arms are going to the miners, and the delay has given them much encourage ment. Ihey now sav thev will fight. President Harrison may have to extend aid, as the State is threatened with an invasion from Kentucky. The opinion of Attorney-General Pickle, rendered this morning, with regard to the right of the governor, un der the law, to call out the State militia is to the effect that the governor cannot call out the militia, but thev may be used as a posse. This complicates the situation, as tne militia leel that they are under no more obligation to serve as a posse than other citizens of the State. and that is lowering the dignity of the military branch of the State service. So tar as can be seen there is no danger of any serious trouble anwhere today. It is said on w hat seems to be good authority that arms are being purchased in rvnoxvnie lor the use of persons in the neighborhood of Coal Creek. In vestigation shows that in the past 24 nours tnere nave been an unusually large number of calls at Knoxville hard ware stores for Winchester rifles. It is said 500 men in the vicinity of Williamsburg, Ky., are ready to come to the aid of miners at Coal Creek. A telegram was received from a Pennsyl vania mining town, proposing contribu tions of money and also men if necessary. At no time has the situation appeared more serious, though there will be no conflict until the governor moves the convicts. A Hoy 8hot.

Gi.en Hazel, Pa., July 24 A race war which threatens diplomatic compli cations, similar to those growing out of the .New Orleans Mafia, exists here. Soma days ago, in a drunken row be tween lumbermen and Italian railroad laborers, Horace Fisher, a lumberman, was stabbed and killed by Raelo Pas suzzi, who escaped to tho Italian camp, where he has since been protected. The Italians flung the flag of Italy to the breeze and defied the lumliermen to in terfere with Passuz.i. The lumbermen are all thoroughly aroused and threaten to kill every Italian in the neigh orhood. They notified the Italians that unless Passuzzi was delivered to jail for trial inside of five days they would come prepared to take him at the point of Winchester rilles. The Italians appealed to the Italian consul at Philadelphia who has demanded protection for Italy's sub jects. The district attorney replied, saying that the consul should advise them to deliver up the murderer. the consul has sent men here to investi gate. ' Kvr;o lillew and Mrs. Juiues Brown Totter Are High Flyers. San Fuancinco, July 20 The' Chron icle says : .Mrs. James hrown Potter and Kyrle llellew were married in Hong Kong just before the Belgic sailed from that port on her last trip. The informa tion was given to a Chronicle reporter last night by Dr. Gaylord, . surgeon of the Belgic. The doctor also says that when liellew and Mrs. Potter, now Mrs. Bellow, landed in Hongkong they were, in common par lance, dead broke. "You know," said Dr. Gaylord, "that Mrs. Potter and Kyrle liellew have been touring British India, Australia and China for several months. They have been traveling alone, that is, without a company of players, and-giving the balcony scene irom 'Romeo and Juliet,' and various other two-character acts. They have also been playing leading parts in 1 1 ram as with amateur theatrical com panies as their support. They were very successful, I am told, and it is said that in Sydney, Aus tralia, alone they cleared 5000. But they have been living high, and it does not take long for wine dinners, excur sions with lords and ladies as your guests and hotel accommodations at, say 20 a week each, not including extras, to use up even $25,1)00. "Anyhow," said the doctor, "they are man and wife and when the Belgic leit China they were broke, flat broke." " Yon see," continued theBelgic's sur geon, "over there (indicating everything in tlie Orient by a wave of his hand;, English sjjeaking people are a good deal more strict about mat ters concerning the character of the men and women they en tertain socially than they are even in England or America. That is why the marriage of Kyrle liellew and Mrs. Potter created a sensation, be cause every one thought that they had been married years ago. They had been traveling together right along, and, while observing the outward proprieties as actor and actress, had al- . lowed it to be generally understood that they were man and wile, but suddenly it was noised about that Mrs. James Brown Potter had received a cablegram announcing the fact that her husband had succeeded in securing a divorce in this country, and the announcement of her marriage with Bellew followed. "I should not wonder," continued the doctor, "if the fact that the doors of certain houses where they had been welcome guests before the news became public were suddenly closed against, them had something to do with their leaving lor England, as I see they are reported to have done." Mrs. Potter's relatives in New York denied that she had been divorced by her husband, and the likelihood is that the divorce and marriage story waB devised to make things easier for both. It is said that in India and Australia Mr. and Mrs. Bellew, as they were known socially, distinguished " them selves by consuming immense quantities of champagne and giving costly din ners. They had great success in their ventures, and, as already stated, made large sums in the various large cities which they have visited, but their lavish hospitality and expenditures exhausted their bank account as fast as it was re plenished.
