IEBBERT BISMAKCK TCEDS HIS BRIDE
Bbest, June 21. A. terrible accident oo
urrcd yesterday on board the new French
ruiser Da Puy de Lome. Orders had been
iven for the vessel to make a trial of her
machinery, and while this trial was in
rogress the end of one of the boilers was
lown out. The fire room immediately "be
ame filled w ith scalding steam and a enl
'hurous, suffocating smoke, caused by the
ater reaching and extinguishing the fire
ader fhe boiler.
To make the situation worse, the electric
ights went out, and the lire room was left
n darkness. The engineer and stokers were
nable to escape until the chief engineer
nd an outsider rushed down the fire room
adder and broke open the door of the com
artment. Then a most horrible and sickening sight
resented itsclC Men wero lying on the
leek, delirious from the agony caused by
he terrible injuries they had sustained,
oine were writhing in convulsions, their
!ackened and distorted faces and fearfully
distend bodies, arms and legs presenting a
ight at once sickening and heart-rending.
Terrible 1 nVcts of the Torture.
Several of the men, in their torture, had
'itten themselves on their arms and hands
.nd had attacked their equally unfortunate
nipanions and had bitten them. In some
sses men were heaped together in strug
ling, writhing masses, and it required con
iderable eflort to separate them. The cool
leek of the fire room was covered with hot
-ater from the exploded boiler to the depth
1 two or three inches, and in this the in
uied men lay, every second adding to the
errible scalding they had received.
1-fforts were at once made to get the men
nit of th- fire room, but this task was ren-
iered difficult through the fact that they
vere absolutely crazv with pain, and at
acked their would-be rescuers with thtir
lauds, leet and teeth, in some cases inflict
ng quite severe injuries. The hot water
ilso added to the difficulty of removing the
ncn, and finally it was found necessary to
rrasp tl.cin in any way possible and drag
hem out. Fifteen of them were dying
vhen they were taken to theship'shospital,
tnd a number of others will undoubtedly
lie in a very short time. It is believed
hat, besides their external injuries, nearly
ill of them inhaled steam, and this alone
vould be suflicicnt to cause death.

The two accidents caused some breach in

it the officer appeared to have lost their
leads. While nearly everybody on board

Yieuxa, June 2L Count Herbert Bis
marck and the Countess Margaretha Hoyos
were married at 11:30 o'clock this morning
in the Evangelical Church in Dorothea
Gash e. The weather was beautiful. Prince
Bismarck's present to the bride is a splen
did diamond riviere, and Connt Herbert's
present is a bracelet of brilliants, while the
father of the bride gives her a diamond
coronet.
Crowds assemble in the Garben and the
Kohlmarket, two of the principal streets of'
the city, throueh which the carriages con
taining invited guests passed to the church.
Prince Bismarck was loudly cheered as he
drove along the streets from the Palffy
Palace to the church. Six hundred guests
had been iffvited to attend the ceremony.
The Austrian officials were conspicuous
by the absence. 'The Austro-Hungarian
aristocracy was mostly represented by Hun
garian magnates attired in their gorgeous
national costumes. Count von Schouvaloft,
the Russian Ambassador to Germany, was
the only Ambassador present. Besides him
were Count Ernest Hoyos, Connt William
Bismarck, who wore the uniform of the
First Dragoon Guards, and Prince Nicholas
Esterhazy, Count Palffy.
There was a burst of cheering at 11:25
when Prince Bjsniarck and Count Herbert
arrived. They acknowledged the grejting
and then awaited at the door of the church
the appearance of the bride. The ex-
Chancellor looked a giant beside the group
that surrounded him. He was attired in
the uniform of the German Garde du Corps,
and wore a helmet surmounted with a silver
eagle. Coimt Herbert wore the blue uni
form of the First Dragoon Guards.
At 11:30 another burst of cheerinc an
nounced the arrival of the bride. She ad
vanced slowly up the aisle, escorted by
Prince Hohenlobe voa Bulow, of the Ger
man Embassy at home. The whole assem
bly rose as the bride passed np the aisle,
and facing the risle bowed to her. Prince
Bismarck and Count Herbert followed. The
marriage service was then proceeded with,
the bride ana bridegroom kneeling. As
the bridal party left the church they were
lustily cheered, Prince Bismarck especially
being most warmly treated. The whole
party was then driven to the Palffy
palace.

Gluditonlans Expect 100 Votes to Spare in
the Next Parliament.
IiONTKW, June 2L Mr. Gladstone held a
long conference to-day with Justin Mc
Carthy, John Dillon and Timothy Healy,
all of whom are anti-Parnellites. Mr. Glad
stone advised that renewed efforts be made
to re-establish union in the Irish Parlia
mentary party, pointing out the evil effects
that would result to the home rulemove
ment from the continued strife of the Irish
factions. He urged that concessions be made
on each side in order that McCarthyite aud
Parnellite candidates should not stand
against each other in parliamentary constit
uencies in the approaching general elec
tions. It is expected in high Liberal quarters
that Gladstone's majority in the coming
general elections will be larger than that of
any recent Government. Reports lrom
local Liberal agents declare that the pros
pects are improving beyond the hopes of the
most sanguine. It is estimated that the
Liberals will have a majority in Great
Britain of between GO and 70 members of
Parliament, in addition to the Irish vote,
which will be at least 80. Even if the ma
jority in Great Britain does not come up to
what is expected, the combined majority, it
is said, is certain to exceed 100.
C L. Magee and others, directors of the
Pittsburg, Allegheny and Manchester
Traction Company, yesterday filed an an
swer to the application for a writ of quo
warranto made by "William' Eberhardt. It
was stated by Eberhardt in his petition
that C. L. Magee, J. H. Dalzell, F. G win
ner, G. B. Hill and Joshua Bhodes have
been illegally exercising the offices of di
rectors of the Pittsburg, Allegheny and
Manchester Company. He said that 'at the
annual election of the traction company,
held May 16, . 1892, ho and the
five gentlemen named were candi
dates for directors. They each
received 46,842)4 votes, and he
was only credited With 38,585 by
the jndge of election. He asserts he cast,
as attorney in fact for M. W. Watson, J. T.
"Woods and J. N. Davidson, stockholders
who were absent, 13,000 more votes for him
self. The judge of election, however, did
not count the votes. He claims he was
rightfully elected and the defendants were
not and he wants them compelled to show
by what right they hold their position.
In their answer the defendants say that
Eberhardt had not sufficient authority to
cast the votes of the absentees and his
powers of attorney were not sufficient under
the law.

CUT OFF HIS BON,
TVho Now Contests the Will or His Father,
John Woods.
The will of the late John "Woods, of
Snowden township, was filed yesterday for
probate. At the same time a caveat was
filed by "William "Woods, a son of the testa
tor, protesting against the probate of his
father's will. Both parties have figured
considerably about the courts lately. Some
time ago the son endeavored to have his
father declared a lunatic, but in two efforts
he was defeated, and the old man declared
cane. The father lived with his daughter,
Mrs. AdaM. McOormick, and she contended
that her brother only wanted their father's
property.
The will filed yesterday is dated June 16,
1885, and has a codicil dated June 23, 1891.
By the original will $1,500 each is given to
"William Woods, his son, and Mrs. McCor
mick. his daughter; $2,000 and all his per
sonal property to his wife Nancy "Woods,
and the farm on which they lived to his
wife and daughter for life and at their
death to his grandson, J. "W. McCormick.
His wife and Dr. J. C. McCormick are ap
pointed executors. In the codicil the be
quest of $1,500 to his son William is re
voked and it is given to Mrs. Nancy
Woods. In case of her death before the
testator all her share goes to Mrs. McCor
mick and from her to her children.

New Yobk, June 2L The Bichmond
and West Point Terminal Eailway and
"Warehouse Company, through John A.
Batherford, its Second Vice President, late
to-day confessed judgment to Frederick
Huidekoper and Eeuben Foster, receivers
of the Bichmond nnd Danville Bailroad
Company, for $181,906 03 due on five notes
dated March 4, 8, April 16, 30 and May 2,
1892. The company has also confessed
judgment for $30,115 to "William P. Clyde
for money loaned March 30, 1892, and for
$15,065 to John C Maben, advanced on
March 29, 1892.
Huidekoper and Foster are the . two re
ceivers of the Bichmond and Danville ap
pointed a few days ago by Judge Bond.
Maben and Clyde are two of the three who
applied to Judge Bond for the appointment
of the receivers for the Danville Company.
It is generally understood that this action
is part of a plan to put the Richmond Ter
minal Company in the hands of a receiver,
ana an application tor a receiver lor tuat
company is expected to follow at once.
The four parties were in close consultation
all day to-day, but refused to make any
statement in regard to the affairs of the
company during the day. Their position
now, as judgment 'creditors, is expected to
ghe them the right to name the receiver on
any application that may be made. This
step, it is thought, is taken in order to
facilitate the reorganization by Drexel,
Morgan & Co.
A COLOSSAL MIX IN C0UBT.
A STATE BIOBY DENIED.
Judge Day, at Canton, riearlng the Kicking
Stockholders of the Mansfield Knnte.
Canton, June 2L perfa'. The case
of S. B. Sturges et al versus the Mansfield,
Coldwater and Lake Michigan Bailroad
Company is being heard in the parlors of
the Hurford House here before Mr. Day as
referee. The case is brought by creditors
representing $300,000 against the holders of
$300,000 of issued stock. The case began in
the Bichard county Common Pleas Court in
1873. It was so big that the Judge gave it
to Judge Lemon, of Clyde, who toyed about
the legal fringes of the complicated thing
for five years, and collected his fee after
giving a decision that some of the 4,200 per
sons (3,000 recorded and 5,200 not recorded)
interested kicked about. Then the colossal
mix-up got into the Circuit Court at Mans
field. This Court took a peep at it and
shied away. Now Judge Day is tack
ling it.
It goes without saying that the man who
settles this case satisfactorily, with 4,000 in
terested people, will be a "corker." "What
the trouble is no one seems to know for cer
tain. There are too many Interests. The
original intention of the Coldwater Com
pany was to build from Mansfield to Toledo,
Coldwater, Battle Creek and Allegan,
Mich. The Pennsylvania Company now
owns the line and operates it from Mans
field to Toledo. The Cincinnati, Jackson
and Mackinaw bought the right of way
through Battle Creek to Allegan for $187,
000. Senator Brice and Secretary of t he
Treasury Foster are both interested parties.
BUSINESS BREVITIES.
No Trouble Between Ex-Secretary Blaine
and John W. Foster.
"Washington, June 21. Mr. John"W.
Foster said to-day that M. H. De Young in
bis recent interview had fallen into the
error of accepting as true a report sent out
from Washington last week by some special
correspondents of what purports to be an
account of the conference between Mr.
Blaine and the Canadian Commissioners in
this city on June 3 and 4 at the State De
partment "That story," said Mr. Foster, "is wholly
without foundation. There was not the
slightest divergence of views between Mr.
Blaine and myself, not an unpleasant word
spoken by anyone during the entire con
ference, and it was adjourned in the best
temper by all present, out not until all the
business "was dispatched. This statement
as to the conference would now doubtless
be confirmed by Mr. Blaine were it not for
the deep bereavement which take him
from all thought of public affairs.
"I wai present at the conference at the
express invitation of Mr. Blaine himself,
and my relation to the reciprocity negotia
tions of the past year, alluded to by Sir. De
Young, was at the special request of Mr.
Blaine, witbont any previous intimation
on the part of President Harrison. In fact,
the President knew nothing about the ar
rangement made by the Secretary ot State
and myself until after it had been consum
mated, and it would not have been con
tinued a moment bv me if any want of har
mony between1 us had ever arisen. Up to
the last our relations were of the most cor
dial and friendly character."
j Home-lfaised Strawberries Best.
It has often been a question why people
prefer home-raised fruit to that brought
from a distance. The reason is that home-
raised fruit is always freshest and has not
lost any of the sweetness by a long journey.
The same argument holds good with the
preference people have lor Marshall
Kennedy Milling Company's flours. They
are made right here at borne, and, being
sold directly from the mill to the retailer,
they lose none of their strength and sweet
ness by long storage, so often the case in
flour brought from a distance. Their new

The
Ordinance Officer Unearths
New anof Novel Scheme to
BEAT THE CITY 00T OP MONEY.
Old Soldiers Sell Privileges to Economical
Hucksters.
SUITS FOE PEKJDRT THREATENED-
Mayor Gourley's one ordinance officer
has earned more than his year's salary for
the city within the past week in addition
to saving many dollars since his appoint
ment to domestic consumers of coal. -As
stated in The Dispatch a couple of weeks
ago', the officer started out to put a stop to
the practice of peddling without a city
license. At first he fonnd that there were
many violators of the law, but they either
stopped peddling or procured the necessary
license at once. Between 30 and 40 license
plates at $35 each were issned by the City
Treasurer last week as a result of this
crusade, and it was evident that few, if any
of that number, would have been taken out
if the officer had not gone after them.
In his investigation the officer found
another class of offenders who were using
plates that had been issned to old soldiers and
illegally transferred. Under an amendment
to the city laws passed in 1889 an old sol
dier is entitled to a peddler's license free of
cost, provided he gives a bond of $200,
shows that he is unable to earn a living at
his regular calling and takes an affidavit
that he will not transfer the free plate
issued to him.
Bought Plates From Old Soldiers.
Two plates have already been fonnd that
it is alleged have been thus fraudulently
transferred. James Lawless and William
Cella were arrested on Monday. They
were peddling under cover ot license plates
104 and 107, issjied May 6. At a hearing
before Magistrate McKenna yesterday af
ternoon it was shown that Lawless had
purchased his plate for $19 from Theodore
Barker, a resident of Allegheny, and there
fore not entitled to a license. Cella paid
$15 for his place to William Findlay.
Neither ot the old soldiers are known
at the Treasurer's office nor to the men who
bought the license plates from tbem. Cella
and Lawless were each fined $50 and costs
by the Magistrate, for their participation in
the matter. Soon afterward a number of
politicians called on the Mayor to have the
fines returned, but His Honor stoutly re
fused, saying the defendants had knowingly
violated the law and if the fines were re
mitted it would be an encouragement for
others.
There are a number of other platesjssned
to old soldiers who are not using them and
the ordinance officer is looking them up.
Will Be Prosecuted for Prrjnry.
He said yesterday that the legitimately
licensed peddlers bad resolved to take the
matter in hand and prosecnte every old
soldier caught violating the law in this re
spect. Charges of perjury and false pre
tenses will be entered, and an effort
made to stop the frand. The ped
dlers say that they must pay the
full amount of the Micense and they
will not permit others to get the same
privileges at half that expense if ifcan be
avoded. Interesting developments are ex
pected of a meeting of the peddlers which
is expected to take place in a day or two.
The crusade against the illegal peddlers
has caused complaints from the commission
merchants'on Liberty street. They say that
there is not halt as many peddlers' wagons
on Liberty street since the ordinance officer
has begun his work, and in consequence
much of the stnfP that cannot be sold on
Libertv street, and which the hucksters
have heretofore taken off the dealers"'
hands and peddled through the suburbs
must now be consigned to the garbage
furnace. The effect ot this has been agree
ably noticeable in the suburbs, where the
leud-monthed bellowing of the peddler has
been for
heard.

A Polish Marriage Ends In a Fight In Which
Several Officers Were Singled.
Yesterday afternoon Steville Gemich, a
Pole, residing in Spring alley, was married
to a fair young lady, Catherine Kolanski.
All the neighbors were invited, beer was
free and everything was lovely. As the
festivities progressed the merrymakers be
came intoxicated, and a fight ensued.
The noise attracted Officer Thompson, and
he went in to quiet matters. He had hardly
passed inside the door until the whole num
ber assembled pitched onto him. He drew
his mace and made a hard fight, but would
have been worsted had not Officers Miller,
Cole and Pitts come to his assist
ance. The four officers had a
hard time. Officer Miller's hat was crushed
in, Officer Pitts was hit on the head with a
beer bottle and Officer Thompson will nurse
a black eye for a few days. The bridegroom,
Steville Gemich, and lour visitors, John
Richards, Matthew Morgan, Victor Nuder
loise, and Martin Balwick, were placed
under arrest and removed to the Twelfth
ward police station.
