Pes Moines, Io., March uj. For jepast week the State Auditor af- BLl.ir has been in statu juo, ami all iiibe"n quiet about the old iokery j which the Auditor's office is still Mr acated, and public interest has lull- silW in viewr of the legal proceedings Slicing on in the Court. Out the jOVCIHUl wttn ui.Mit nic itai uc triined that his order suspending iJie State Auditor should suspend. He has held the matter in abeyance pending the hearing' before the Court in the case of Cattell against Brown, in which was raised the legal author fii , i M State officer. That question havm? Iv been decided, sustaining the author- itjr of the Governor, this afternoon I, about 4 130 the sheriff served a war- rant of arrest on Auditor Brown and ha deputy, Stewart, on the charge ofrefusmg the Governor access ti tie books and papers of the Audi- !J tor's office, and which was issued March 7. Then the trio were in the rooms of the Insurance Department, on the south side of the hall, in the second story. The north side of the hall contains the Auditor's office, ithe rooms ot which have been kept locked continually, and while they ere parleying over the bond to be jiven a squad of State guards, head sl by Adjt. Gen. Alexander, came marching down the hall DOORS BATTERED DOWN. Brown and Stewart met them at !he door, when the General de manded admission into the offices hich Brown refused, w'neH the or 1 . . . xt was giTen to the n,,iitii, to Q through the door, A bir sledRe hammer was quickly swung in the lir and after sevMal vigorous blows he door succumbed and the soldiers iegan to fi'c into the oft ce, when Brown am) Stewart attempted to top tliew, and a lively scrimmage rasSiadfora tim. Both Brown S 1 . - ffl btewart being forced into the 11, they were deposed to regain atrance, when the Sheriff interpos al and induced them to peaceably ttire and save farther trouble and wssible bodily injury, which would Xrtainlv have followed. The sol Cers were there on business, eve-y artrkSge box being full aad each pn loaded.

The supreme court commission has worked well. " The commissioners have done nobly. Their work has challenged the admiration of the members of the bar throughout the state, and amply vindicated the wis- 1 it- tiom ot their selection, and of the Jaw which made tl.eir appointment possible. By iheni hundreds of cases have been disposed of in the space of two years, during which they have acted, and hundreds of opinions, the work ot their brains and of their hands, have adorned and will continue to adorn the paes of our state reports, adding a fresh lustrt to our judicial annals. Such was. the .mportance ot the continu ation of the commission to the people of this state that Governor Manna- duke, soon after his inauguration, ip a terse and timely message, called the attention ot the legislature to the matter, and urged the passage of such a bill as on yesterday met such an untimely and unmerited defeat. It is idle to speculate on the cause which led to that defeat; some ot them have already been hinted at, others of them may perhaps be found in that pride ot opinion as to the un constitutionality of the bill which passed two years ago creating the commission, and the cherished desire to vindicate that opinion at the pres ent session, and also that insatiable j thirst for office, which doubtless, hopefully looked for the establish ment m the near future of a third court of appeals amid the mighty mountain tops of the Ozark range, in the event the commission kill could be defeated. We learn that over 1,000 cases will, at the next April term, await decision at the hands ot the supreme court. When to this large numler is added those criminal cases constantly coming up to swell the list, &s well as original applications without number, the prospect of poor and needy litigants whose little all is frequently wrap ped up m a single suit, is by no means flattering.

A terrible dis aster occurred in a mining villa : near Soarabruecken this morning. t which it is believed 200 111. litis lo-i their lives. The explosion occurrc. in one o the l uge mines. Th mmets had hardly began the da' work when a fire damp became nited and exploded, causing a heavy cave-ii around the shaft and entrance to the mine. Over 200 men weir known to be m the mine at the time All efforts to reach them have thu tar been unsuccessful. It is feared all have been eithci crushed dead or asphyxiated. Scenes in and around the mine are heartrending. The wives, mothers s xd children of the imprisoned men are flocked around the entrance sobbing and imploring God to help them and spare the lives ot the dear ones entombed be low. Xir.etv-two bodies have thus tar beet, taken out of the mine near Cowsen, m which an explosion oc curred this morning. They were all found m or near the main shaft. It is supposed that many others will be found in the less accessible part of the mine. The explosion destroyed the air shafting, thus making the survival of any of the miners almost impossible. A Dying Woman's Propbetic Vmon. New York, March iS. Mrs. William Nelson ot Brooklyn died this morning. She had been suffer ing long from an incuraole disease, and was frequently at the point of death. On Sunday afternoon, w hen apparently dying, she awoke as from a trance and said to her husband : "I see two funerals going from this house." On Monday afternoon she made the ame remark. After her death this morning, her husband, a tall, broad-shouldered powerful Scotchman, went to an undertaker's to make arrangements for her funer al. When about to leave he sudden ly dropped int a chair and asked for a glass of water. Before it could be brought he was dead. Heart disease was the cause.
