The monarchist organs assert that the republic ia passing through a period of difficulty, which may assume grave proportions and which may even Involve the Eiysee. The moderate republican press pays nnanlmous tribute to the correctness and clearness of the attitude of Ex-Premier Dupuy, who has fallen. It la asserted, only because he was determined to saf e-ruard constitutional principles.

GREAT BRITAIN. The Dlxlake Colliery Disaster. London, 15. Throughout the night relays of men have worked desperately at the Diglake colliery, Audley, North Staff ordsblre, where a large number of miners were entombed, at about noon yesterday by a sudden rush of waters from the old workings, as already cabled to the Associated By 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon 150 of the men and boys employed in the mine had been rescued. Of those who remained below it was thought that twenty were in the lower workings when the mine was flooded, and they were drowned.

From the time the disaster was signalled the rescuers have been doing their utmost to save those who may remain alive and recover the bodies of the drowned. The work of rescue, however, has not made much progress, and it is now believed there are still between 90 and 120 men and boys in the mine. The heart-stricken wives, daughters and relatives of the imprisoned miners have been gathered around the pit head ever since news of the disaster reached them. There they have been patiently facing the bitterly cold wind since shortly after noon yesterday, and many of them have been without food since that time. All of them brought dry clothes for the men, and they stand in groups hoping and praying for the safety of those dear to them.

The water so constantly fluctuates that the rescuers are well-nigh discouraged. They found the bottom of the shaft choked with plies of timber swept there by the torrents of water which poured into the mine. AH this timber must be removed before the bodies can be recovered. The greatest fear Is expressed that the waters will so undermine the galleries that there will be a cave in. The rescuers work with difficulty, standing In 4 feet of water, and only fifteen yards progress was made during the night.

of miners have arrived at the Diglake colliery from other collieries, and they will all volunteer to go down and assist in the work of rescue. Four gangs of men are thus supplied to go down every day. Antl-Gamblinsr League Tackles Game. Newmarket, England, Jan. 15.
