Several years ago Knglish sacks began to be introduced, they are cheap er than hogsheads; at first, the warehousemen had shocks on hand, and compelled planters to use hogsheads for shipping sugar. The warehouse men now unloaded shocks and make no further opposition to the use of bags. As a result, the amount of shocks shipped this year (join the states, is less than 200,000. At the meeting to day, the general sentiment was, that the government should admit all imported sugar cheaper, if packed in hogs heads, than if packed in sacks. The commit tee consisting of J. I*.

WilKE>BaRRE, l*a Aug. 11 The mine of the West End Coal Company, operattd by Conynham Teasdale Co., at Macansqua w as the scene of a peculiar and terrible accident this forenoon. Just before the night shift went of! duty, the fan broke. The boss knew of this so did the men on the day shift before they entered the mine, but notwithstanding this they went into the mine taking a great risk. There were about 30 in all, who were supplied with safety lamps, as it was well known that gas would accumulate About 75 men were in the mine at the time work began. The workmen re pairing the tan were the first to be overcome with gas and about an hour later the same fate was shared by many of the miners in the mine. Before the men realized their dan ger, more than 20 were unconscious. Those who could then escape did so. Superinten dent John Teasdale with a corps of men as a relief went down into the mine to assist the men in making their escape and after being in the mine half an hour Teasdale became unconscious as did several of his men who were with difficulty rescued. Others went down and in the face of immense difficulty and in spite of being continually overcome by gas got out all but 10 tuen. Three of those brought out were dead and those in the mine are beyond doubt dead. The dead as far as can be learned are. James Whalen. Wm. Vineby, Peter Bornitzki. John Dilday and Hiram Mead. Eight men were badly hun and some ot those rescued alive are still unconscious and in a precarious condition. The boss at the mine says he notified the men before they entered the mine that the fan had stopped and it was not safe for them to enter as ttie mine was filling with gas This is denied by the miners and laborers who, on the contrary, say he told them to go to work that the fan was broken but would be repaired and put in working order in an hour. MAXWELL IN AMERICA. The St. Louis Murderer in Sun Francisco ,l!e Denies That he i* Maxwell. Sax Francisco, Aug. 11. On the passage from Auckland the murder er Maxwell was manacled at night, and two detectives kept strict hour watches over him day and night. He maintained a perfectly easv demeanor during the entire trip. Two carriages were waiting at the steamer land ing, and the detectives with Maxwell were driven to the city prison, where the prisoner will remain until to-morrow afternoon. When accosted in prison he said his name was Danger, that he was a Frenchman, a native of Paris, and his age was thirty four years. He acknowledged having known Preller, but beyond this refused to say more. Kx police surgeon Clark who came up at that moment asked if he spoke French. He re plied that he spoke a patois of Norman French. Dr. Clark said he was familiar with that patois, whereupon Maxwell suddenly checked himself and refused to continue his conversation, ("apt. Lees, chief of the city detectives, who worked up the greater por tion of the evidence against Maxwell, when the prisoner passed through the city last April, says the latter is a Scotchman with an assumed accent. The detectives at the sug gestion of Capt. Lees provided Maxwell with clean clothing preparatory to having h’m photographed. When he had fimailed his toilet he looked more like the description published than he did when he came over the ship’s side. A WHISKEY HIM.. Western Distiller* Useing Darrel* With Thin Heads and Stave*. Chicago, Aug. II. A Peoria, III., special published here this evening makes serious charges against cer tain Peoria distillers and discloses a second whiskey ring. The dispatch says: It is stated that some Peoria distilleries have been using barrels constructed with a thick stave opposite the bung. The bung stave also was made thick and the heads of the barrels in stead of beihg three-quarters of an inch in thickness were only half an inch. These barrels hold from a gallon to a gallon and a half more than the gauger's rod and callipers show. Some time ago. as report goes, some whiskey belonging to a large distillery was detained in the east for alleged irregularities. The barrels were tested and found to hold more than thev gauged. It is reported that several other distilleries were using the same sort of barrels. A BEECHER IMET. A And Atntc of Affairs in a Mining Village in Pennsylvania. Mt. Pleasant, Pa., Aug. 11.

Impure water and filth generally are the prime rauses of the disease. In manv places the atmosphere is filled with stench which is at times nearly unbearable. Owing to the slackness of work at the surronnding coke works a large number are altogether out of employment and starvation stares many in the face. It is nothing unusual to have children cry for bread. The head of one family stated this afternoon that there had been nothing in his house for two weeks to eat but bread and water.

If the society carries out its purpose thoroughly for, sav, three weeks, not a newsboy on any railroad in the country will venture to thrust his property in a stranger’s lap.— N. 1'. Times. Robert Howard of Fall River, secretary oi the Spinners’ Union, has issued a circu lar in which lie gives the opinion of a workman on the business depression and "hard times”, llesavs: Trade has taken a turn for the better, and we will point out a few causes which led to the extreme depression in our industry and the best course for the manufacturers to follow in the future Too many mills have been built in the las' fifteen years. Too many spindles and looms have glutted the mar kot. and reduced the value of print cloths to such low rates that people regard them as too cheap to be of anv worth. The old cry that anything is good enough for print cloths should be dropped, and manufac turers must, if they desire good trade, consider the desire ot consumers in the future instead of speculators Better stock should be put in the goods by which their durability would be Improved and a high er price charged for them. There will never be a great demand for prints, while dress pieces can be bought for from 35 to 40 cents, for it costs considerably more for the making up and this depreciates them in the eyes of purchasers. When dull trade appears wages should not be reduced, for we live in a country where over -.10 per cent ot the manufactured products arc consumed by its own popula tion and consequently 10 or 20 per cent taken off, the purchasing power oi the people decreases consumption to that ex tent and reacts with a terrible force upon the manufacturers who make the reduc tion by forcing them to sell their cloth at low prices, in some instances below the cost of manufacture, and finally leads to the stoppage of mills, as we have wit nessed in this city to-day. If we ever emerge from this depression and if pros perity reign amongst us again, manufac turers should turn their attention toward obtaining some of the $70,000,000 worth of trade which England does annually with the continent of America, and if a cloud of industrial depression should loom up some time in the future, we believe it is the best way to counteract it instead of reducing wages. Ex-Minister Langston, recently returned front Hayti, regards Hayti and Santo Do mingo as most promising fields of trade. He said to a Tribune reporter: “Perhaps no two countries ot like size and popula tion, offer greater advantages. In the or der of their importance, the chief products are coffee, logwood, cotton, hides, goat skins. sugar, mahogany and various wood®. The land of both islands, wheth er on the mountains or plains, is tertile and productive beyond anything that one can describe.” To quote his own words further, he said “1 am returning to this country more an American than I went away. I have been an American all the time I w.as gone. I have asserted an American policy in Hayti as far as my powers extended. When I went there the American Legation was alongside the Brit* ish Legation in a little bit ot a pen. Ton couldn't whisper in it without being heard next door. In fact,the legation was a mere side show to the British minister's bead quarters. I changed all that, moved into good quarters, and soon did business foi the United States independently. The Government of Hayti has paid respect to our demands, and I was able to settle ad vantageously the claims of citizens which bad been standing for twenty years, and which the State Department thought conld uot possibly be adjusted. My observation of the conduct of Government business leads me to believe that this country must soon make a great issue of the re-arrange ment of its foreign service. England has been making a great effort for the busi ness of this island. France is also seek ing it, and the people speak French. The Germans would like to increase their trade there. They have old and sage diplomats there, shrewd and wily consuls, and pay them large salaries, and give them all the help they need in secretaries and clerks. This government quibbles over a mere clerk hire. What is true in Hayti is true all round the world. It this country is to have a foreign trade, it must treat its representatives with generosity and must make efforts to secure trade, and to hold it when secured.” Empire State Politics. Ai.bast, Aug 9—The members of the Legislature who were here in attendance at the funeral of General Grant talked a good deal about State politic!. The two United State* Senators, YVilliam M. Evart# and YVar ner Miller, were consulted by many of the leading Republican members of tile Legisla ture concerning party policy. Both of the Senators expressed confidence that the State would be carried bv the Republican party this fall, and urged the nomination of men of un impeachable character for members ot the Legislature. From the Republicans it was learned that there are to be several candidates for Gov ernor before the State Convention. The friends of General Joseph B. Carr, Secretary of State, of Troy, and of Ira Davenport, ex Controlier and present Congressman, of Bath, for several weeks have been making an active canvass in their behalf. Mr. Daven port is credited with having the support of ex-Senator Platt, but there are some politi cians who suspect that Mr Platt is not zeal ously at work for Mr. Davenport, but means b. fore the convention meets to bring forward Levi p. Morton, ex-Minister to F'rance, as a candidate. The two candidates already in the field may be said to be “locality candidates,” as Mr. Davenport’s main support comes from the southern tier of counties in the State,and Gen. Carr’s from the counties about Troy, in the eastern part of the State. In the last week the friends of James I). Warren, Buf falo, chairman of the republican State com mittee, have put him forward as a candidate for governor They point to his high posi tion as a business man in Buffalo; and to'trie tact that under his leadership of the State committee the enormous democratic majori ty recorded for Cleveland in 1882 of 192,854 wai^ut down in 1882 to 12.620, and in 1884 to only 1,047. Mr. Wairen will receive un questionably a large vote from the western counties of the State and a good deal of sup port from counties scattered through the State. There will be also other republican candidates for governor. St. Lawrence county will present the name of Leslie W. Russell, former attorney-general,and Cayuga county the name of Gen. Wm. II. Seward, it is also probable that the Onondaga countv delegates will press the nomination of Judge Andrews of the Court of Appeals.—Cor. N. j Y. Ttibune. Skeptical Spiritualists. A Medium who Claims to have had Communication with Gen. Grant. Several per* >ns wlm are accustomed to pass their Sunday afternoons in a hall near Fourteenth street and Sixth avenue with the Theodore Parker Spiritualist Fraternity found themselves associated yesterday with an elder ly lady who was introduced as Mrs. Myra Hall, medium. Mrs. Hall said she used to live in Washington during Cien. Grant's ad ministration as President, and in the course of a little talk with her audience, professedly under spirit control, she had a great deal to say about him Among other things the listeners were in formed that Gen Grant saw and fully appre ciated the splendid funeral pageant that fol lowed him to the tomb; his only disappoint ment was that he could not make his realiza tion of it manifest to the thousands around him. The first persons who met him on the borders of the spirit land were members of his own family long since passed from earth, thus assuring him that ties of blood and affec tion passed beyond the grave. After making a few observations about the American gov ernment and the military, quite coincident with published views expressed by Gen. Grant in life, the audience was informed that the spirit was about to depart. If this communication really comes from Gen. Grant." said a clerical looking gentle man, whom others referred to as I)r. Everett, “can we not get some substantial if not indis putable evidences of it? Several persons here were in the war, and would readily recognize any proof of Gen. Grant’s identity." The doctor got no further satisfaction, and afU r a collection had been taken up Mrs. Hall bid the Fraternity good afternoon. It was evident from the discussion in the usual “conference'' that followed that Mrs. Hall’s manifestations were received with much skepticism.—.V. Times. 10th. Personal An English edition of Miss Cleveland's work is announced. General Sherman is expected to visit the Berkshire hills this week. K.x-Attorney-General Brewster will not re turn from Europe before very late in the autumn. Justice Lawrence, of the New Fork Su preme Court. is at Bir Harbor, and thinks nothing of walking 16 miles a day. The name of Mrs. Grant is borne upon the roll of membership of the Metropolitan church in Washington Sir Charles Pike has written to his con stiluents denying the truth of the accusation brought against him. Mr. Leslie Stephen is writing a life of Prof. Faw cett, the late Postmaster General of Eng land. Mr. Franklin Simmons, the sculptor, is visiting friends in Boston and vicinity. No American has made from life so many por traits of Union generals as he. Messrs. E. P. Putton A Co..New York,have arranged to issue Canon Farrar's sermon on Grant, delivered at Westminster Abbey on Tuesday last. Ex-President Arthur has been invited to address the veterans of the late war at Green wich. near Saratoga. Mr. Arthur lived sev eral years of his boyhood in Greenwich, where his tattler preached in the Baptist church. General Sews. Riel is now engaged in writing memoirs of his eventful life. The New York monument fund has a slow growth. A Kansas woman has been found guilty of murder for insurance money.

Edward J. Abrahams, who wss fined $250 for asssisting in the production of the “Mikado," after its production had been for bidden by the court, paid his fine and was released Rosenfeld, his partner, is still in jail. Probably the best circulated of all the prints and badges presented to the 257,000 people that viewed General Grant’s remains as they lay in state in New York were leaves of the New Testament, untiringly handed out by young evangelists who stood along Cham bers street. More than 100 copies of the Tes tament were delivered by this single-sheet process. Great success attends the sale of James Pyle’s New Washing Compound, Pearline.

The windows are in. and the machinery ia expected to arrive soon. The steamer Della Collins will carry an excursion party from this city to the Rich niond camp ground, Sunday. The Qardiner murderer was brought to this city in a carriage to avoid the crowds that surrounded the railroad stations. The new store being fitted up tor K Lit tle, at (i irdiner, is undoubtedly the largest dry goods store this aide of Portland. The Salvation Army held a meeting last evening in the vacant lot at the corner of Bridge and Slate streets. These meetings still continue to he objects ofcuriositv. A mail car which had been repaired at the car *hnps in this city was attached to the af ternoon train, yesterday Some very fine work in painting and repairing ia done in thia city Wood, the man who committed the murder at Gardiner, Monday night, is the same man who created a disturbance at the Maine Cen tral Kailroad station in this city, one night last week Detectives Ira True, of Hailowell, and A. IV Mahoney, of Boston, went to Pittsfield, Monday, and succeeded in arresting Albert T. Wright, wanted in Boston for embezzling jail. At about 10 o’clock Monday night a da« tardly murder m committed at Gardiner, j the detail* of which are a* follow* The three Dartie* intere.ted, Wilber S. 1 Wood, Jame* Bennett, and Michael Broane han were laborer* employed at Iceboro. Monday erening a number from Iceboro »ia ited Gardiner, for the purpose of haring a good time. They went up on the 8 o’clock train, intending to return on the 11. Bennett and Broanehan were together, and Wood wai alone. In the courte of the erening Wood entered a aaloon and drank. He wa* going out when he met Bennett and Broanehan.and gare them an mritation to drink which thee accepted. The three then left the aaloon, and aeparated, Wood going one way and Bennett and Broanehan the other. The next time they met wa, at the depot, where The Crime waa Committed, the details of which, according to Brotne han’s story, are as follows “We were talking and having a good time, when Jimmy (Ben nett) wanted to spar for fan, and squared off at Wood. Wood said to keep away or he would shoot, and raised his hand above his head Jimmy jumped at him, and he began to slash around with his hand. 1 thought that he had a pistol and made a grab at hit hand so that he couldn’t shoot Jimmy. He then slashed around, and I felt him cut my wrist, and then I knew he nad a knife. Just then Jimmy shouted, Great God, lie has Killed Me P and fell to the ground. Wood then started up street and. meeting Officer Burns, said *1 suppose you want me?’ Burns didn’t know what he wanted of him, hut answered. “Y’es, of course I do, come along with me,” and took him to the lockup. Meanwhile, Brosnehan gave the alarm and the police were soon on the spot where the tragedy occurred Or. Strout was summoned, hut on his arrival, ten or fifteen minutes later, Itrnnrtt was IlrAd. The body whs carried to the lockup, ami a coroner summoned. He deemed an inquest unnecessary and nothing was done until morning, when a post mortem examination was held. In the meantime a large and ex citable crowd had been collecting around the lockup. The excitement was intense. Cries of f^ynrh the Murderer were heard from some, but nothing of the sort was attempted. Men remained around the police station all night trying to get a glimpse at either the murdered man or the murderer, and watching the least demonstration with the greatest in terest. Karly in the morning the crowd com menced to increase, and all the forenoon the street in front of the lockup was crowded with eager, excited men, hustling ami jostling to see all that was going on. I)rs. Strout, Sawyer, (Mason and Turner were summoned early in the m >rning. and An Autopsy was Held. The physicians fi'imd a wound one inch long, about two inches to the left of the sternum, and one inch above the left nipple, passing between fourth and fifth ribs, cutting off the fifth costal cartilage, one-half inch inside of w here the costal cartilage joins the rib, enter ing the left side of the heart transversely. In the passage it penetrated the lower border of the upper lobe of the left lung. During the forenoon the prisoner was visit ed by friends, and many acquaintances of the murdt red mAn wen* also present. A journal reporter was allowed An Interview wltlt Wood. He w as found sitting on the edge of the hunk in his cell, and wore a dejected look. In answer to inquiries he gave his story, which was substantially as follows ‘I came to Gardiner to join the infantry met Bennett and Brosnehan in a saloon where I went to get a drink invited them to drink, and they accept* d; did not drink with them, as I had already had enough went over to the depot, where I again met them Bennett was ugly, and wanted to spar; did not care to spar, and told him so; he squared off, and I defended myself; I was afraid of getting hurt; I had the best of him, and Brosnehan piled on; then I drew a knife, and slashed away until they let go; saw Bennett fall, and heard him say, •‘My (fOd, I atii Killed.** I then went up street and gave myself up to the police.” He seemed loth to talk about himself, hut was anxious to find out what would be done with him. asking the reporter repeatedly if he thought he would be sent to prison. By dint of questioning the following information) in regard to himself was dieted: “My home has always been in Burnham, until a few years ago; tamilv hare always lired there; hare lived in Gardiner at different times, working on the ice; boarded with Henry Stilphen. on Winter street, when I stayed in the citv. My father is dead, since his death mv mother has lived in China, and God only knows what will become of her when she hears of my crime. It will kill her When speaking of his mother, the tears stood in his eyes, and it was evident that he was greatly moved. Alter further question ing he continued "I hare told the facts as they are. and if G xl could give his testimony he would say that 1 killed that man in self defence.” Before the reporter left him he again asked what would probably he done with him. and said “Before 1 would go to State prison for life. It Would Kill Myself.” He appeared sorry the next minute, how ever. for haring made the remark. Wood is a young m an twenty-six rears of age, j about Are feet, eight inches in height: light moustache, and chin dropping back, giTing his face a look of indecision and weakness. Soon after the reporter left him he was visit ed by a friend from Iceboro, bringing his clothes. This man was with him some ten minutes, and all the time they were talking the prisoner could be heard sobbing like a child. During the forenoon the murdered man lay in the police station covered with a blan ket, and everyone who wished was allowed to enter and View the Corpse, Hundreds availed themselves of the oppor tunity. Besides the cut over the heart, which caused his death, there was discovered a slight wound back of the neck. A description of James Bennett ia as follows: About Are feet six inches in height; sandy moustache, brown hair, grey eves; dressed in a pair of light pants and a dark coat. The co*t waa literally torn to pieces by the slaab* es of the knife. Bennett hat been in this country about fonr years, and was a general favorite with all who knew him. He has no relatives in this country, if any at all. His remains will be taken charge of by tbe Cath olic priest of Gardiner. Miekael Irssatkas. waa wounded in three places by the knife tbrnsti of Wood. On his right wriat are two cats, one of them being a long ragged wound reaching nearly through the wrist, and the second a smaller wound just above it. The third is the most painful, being across the knuckles of the left hand. His coat is alto badly cut. and it is very evident that he had a narrow escape from deatn. There are four holes cut ia his coat, one of them being in the lappet, over the right breast, and the other three in lhe •ides. Brosneban hat relatives in Augusta. He will be held on his personal recognizance aa a witness. Besides Brosnehan there it Another Witness of the crime. A young man living in I.ewis ton, bv the name of Robert Vaughan, who had been at work at Iceboro, and was ac quainted with the parties, was on tbe platform at the time the murder occurred. As BenDett fell Vaughan rushed up and stooped over: him. Bennett recognized him, and seizing him by the hand, said. “My God, Bob, 1 am dying,” and expired almost immediately, with a death grasp on Vaughan’s hand. 1 Vaughan will also be held as a witness. During the forenoon there were several! visitors present who said that they were well acquainted with the murdered man and the murderer. They all told about the same story. The murdered man seemed to be a favorite with all, while many stories were told to prove that Wood Is a Dangerous Man. It is related of him that about two or three years ago he had some trouble with a man with whom he was working, at the Farming dale ice houses, and struck him in the stomach with an ice pick, causing serious wounds. Other* said that he had threatened to kill several different persons, and everyone was afraid to incur his displeasure. The Kerne of the Murder is at the Maine Central passenger sta tion. At the southern end of the building is a mail box, and right in front of this box is the place where the deed was done. The platform in that vicinity is bespattered with blood, and presents a ghastly appearance. The Knife with which the dastardly deed was committed was an ordinary two-bladed jack knife, with a black handle. This is in the possession of the police. The blade is quite dull, and an extremely heavy blow must have been struck to penetrate the body as it did. The Murderer was brought before Judge Larabee. and com mitted to jail to await the action of the Sep tember term of court. Stephen Whitmore, Ksq., appeared for the State, and O. B. Cla son for the prisoner. He was brought to this city yesterday afternoon and lodged in jail. Before being brought here bis picture was taken. The excitement over the affair in Gardiner is immense, and popular indigna tion seems to have been aroused to a great degree. Much sympathy is expressed for the friends of Benuett. \OKTII FAIRFIELD.
