ItrrciAi. telegram to tot dispatch, i
KevtYoek, June 26. Within a short
period, perhaps, the Socialist labor party
will, for the first time in its history, nomi
nate a candidate for the office of President
of the United States. The nomination is
dependent upon so many contingencies that
it mar never take place, though the subject
is under debate in all section?, and the ar
gument over it waxes hot.
There are several thousand organized
Socialists in this city, but the party is split
up into bickering fictions which despise
each other, and which at the same time de
test not only the Democratic and Repub
lican parties, but also the Georgltes, or
single-taxers, and the Bellamyites, or Na
tionalists, and the Powderlyites, or Kights
of Labor, and the Populites, or Farmers
Alliance party, and the "Weissmanites, or
Anarchists, and the Gompersites, or the
Federation of Labor, and the Blissertisers,
or the Central Labor Union, and other or
ganizations all along to the end of the
chapter.
A Conference to Decide the Matter.
"It is possible," said a member of tho
party, "that something may be done at the
conference in Ilochester, to which some
delegates have been elected, but you cannot
tell. "We could afford to antaconize all
( other parties and organizations," he added,
"if we had any kind of harmony among
ourselves, but this is the last thing to be
looked for.
"We are nearly all Germans, full of old
world notions and prejudices. Many of us
don't understand the English laneuage or
the established methods of American po
litics, or the system of Republican Govern
ment, or the ways of the American people.
Some Americans have joined the party from
time to time, but the German members are
sure to accuse them of being boodlers, or of
being false to Socialism, or of trying to use
the proletariat, or of wearing better clothes
than wage-workers.
Too Much Internecine Trouble,
"Our party once indorsed a candidate here
and then our leaders gave orders that he
should be boycotted at the election. Com
rade Sehlueter, or Vogt, orKuhn, or Brurek
mann can tell about it We have had trouble
with Justus Schwab and his friends, and
last month we drove out Joseph Barondess,
who is the leader of the Hebrew working
men. Our leaders cannot get along with
one another, or with anybody else, and they
are all the time blattering about boycott
and boodle and selling out."
The Socialist who spoke in this wav said
he was nevertheless in favor of nominating.
a bocialist candidate for President of the
United States just to see how many votes
the party would poll. Last year there was
a Socialist candidate for Governor of the
State of New York and he polled just about
1 per cent of the vote of the State.
There are two prominent obstacles to the
success of the project for nominating a
Socialist Presidental candidate. In the
first place, it seems impossible to find any
eligible American who would accept the
nomination, ana in the second place the
platform upon which the Socialist party is
organized calls for the abolition of the office
of President of tbe United States.
A Candidate Hard to Find.
As to candidates, it is admitted by tbe
Socialist leaders that hardly a single
American of any mark in the whole country
has ever identified himself with the Social
ist party. "That is our trouble," said a
Socialist, when asked to give the names of
the men who had a chance of being put in
nomination. "Our trouble is that we don't
know where to look for a candidate. If we.
could put up a man that was born in Europe
we would easily find plentv of candidates.
We could get 100 of theni in New York
City, thoucn there is hurdlv a man in the
crowd who would support any other man in
the crowd. As we cannot nominate a for
eigner, and cannot get a native, what are
we to do?"
The talker in this case was puzzled, and
the reporter had occasion to learn that the
Socialists all over tbe city were just as bad
ly puzzled. The reporter mentioned the
name of one man.
"But he will not do," replied the Social
ist, "for he is not a member of our party,
and we will not nominate anyone who does
not belong to a section."
o LoaDns Man Will Do.
The reporter gave another name. "And
he will not do," replied the Socialist, "for
be is not a workingman, a wake worker,
and we will not vote for a candidate who is
joined to the aristocracy, or the loafing
classes, or the exploiters, or the bourgeoisie,
and we will take only a President who be
longs to our class."
The reporter had exhausted his list of
eligibles, after naming two, and was non
plussed. The party of tbe other part was in
the tame state of mind, and merely said
that some honest worker or arbeiter could
be iound to take the nomination. Still an
other obstacle to the nomination of a Social
ist candidate for President is the platform
of the Socialist party. That platform, as
adopted at the Chicago Convention of Oc
tober 12, 1689, contains this plank: "We
demand the abolition of the Presidency,
Vice Presidency and the Senate of the
United States."
Every member of the Socialist party is
pledged to support the platlorm which em
bodies this destructive demand; and only by
overriding this fundamental principle of
the party can a Socialist candidate ior the
Presidency be put in nomination.
'Xhe argument in regard to this part of
the platform made by those Socialists who I

desire to put up a candidate Is given in a
Socialist organ. This organ argues that
while the Presidental office must- be abol
ished, it can be abolished only by the elec
tion of a President who will approve of the
bill to be passed by Congress lor its aboli
tion, and therefore it Is necessary to elect
one Socialist President prepared to nphold
a platform, the execution of which will
abolish his own office.
The organ from which this argument is
quoted gives its view brieflv In the follow
ing words: "While the Socialists would
abolish the Presidency, they must, in order
to do so, first conquer the powers of the
State, including the Presidency itself."
Of course this sophistical .argument is,
combated by many of the members of tbe
Socialist party who don't desire to circum
vent the language or undermine the great
principle of the party platform. Whether
these protesting and unyielding members
are in the majority will be ascertained as
soon as the vote has been taken in the sec
tions throughout the countrv. If it turns
out that they are in the majority no Social
ist candidate for the Presidency of tho
United States will be put in nomination.
The question will be decided within a short
time. Meanwhile, debate upon it in the
sections and in the Socialist places of ren
dezvous is carried on with "dangerous
energy. I
Socialists Anffry at Henry George.
The only occasion upon which the
Socialist strength has been fully brought
out was last year, when the Socialist candi
date for Governor polled 14,561 votes, or
less than one-half the vote of the Prohibi
tion candidate.
The Socialists are extremely enraged at the
single tax party of Henry George for
going over to tne Cleveland Democracy at
the Chicago Convention last week. Tbey
charge George and his followers with being
"mere boodlers," who have sold ont to the
capitalistic eneuiv as 'they sold out once
before, for cash in hand. They are also
violently opposed to the People's party,
organized last February by the leaders of
the Farmers' Alliance, though that party's
platform is almost wholly made up of
Socialist planks. They aie also at war
with Bellamy's Massachusetts party of Na
tionalists, though this party, too, is of the
socialist kind. They are likewise, as has
already been said, vehemently antagonistic
to the great trade organizations, and to the
Knights of Labor. They will join hands
'only with those who accept the Socialist
platform, the whole platform and nothing
but the platform, who implicity obey all
the rules and orders of the party, and whose
daily conduct meets with their approval.
If the Socialist leaders who are searching
for an eligible Presidental candidate who
will accept the nomination can find one
anywhere, he will be put np, under the
risk of being taken down again before the
November election.
CLAMOR FOR CLARKSON
To Continue ns Chairman He May Keep
on at Harrison's Bequest, but lie's Not
Anxious for the Job Magee Not Be
lieved to Be a Candidate.
Washington; June 26. Special All
day long members of the Republican Na
tional Committee have thronged tbe cor
ridors of the Arlington and discussed the
Chairmanship, which is the most important
question with which the members will
have to deal. An informal conference,
composed of the leading members, was
held this evening, but no conclusion was
reached in regard to the executive head.
Neither Chairman Clarkson nor General
Sewall attended the conference and these
are the two men who are chiefly spoken of.
The President is said to nave made a
straight and frank proposition to Clarkson
that he continue at the head of the commit
tee, his first choice. Porter, of New York,
having refused the position, and Sewall, his
second choice, having urged upon Mr. Har
rison to signify that Chairman Clarkson
would be the ablest man for the place.
Clarkson Wants to Retire.
Mr. Clarkson said to your correspondent
in the last hour, that be desired nothing so
much as to retire from the committee. He
would not say that he had been urged by
the President nor members of tne committee
to continue as Chairman, nor would he say
that if so urged he would accept or refuse,
but merely reiterated that he felt over
worked, that his health was not good, and
that it would be exceedingly grateful to
him if be could abandon active political
labor.
The prevailing opinion among Republi
cans seems to be that it would be very un
wise in Mr. Clarkson to accept the position
of Chairman, because of his opposition to
Mr. Harrison at Minneapolis. It is per
fectly plain that if he remains at the head
of tbe committee, and Harrison shonld fail
of election, he would be accused of indiffer
ence or treachery, and his friends think and
he thinks that he should not run the risk.
The President undoubtedly wants Sewall,
his faithful and personal friend. Neither
Michener, ex-Treasurer Huston, Land Com
missioner carter or any other Western man
mentioned seems to size up to tbe situation.
They are efficient in their own ' States, but
not capable of grappling with the giant ma
chine in New York, the great battleground,
and of organizing the national campaign.
Mr. Magee Not in the Race,
Mr. C. L. Magee would be entirely ac
ceptable, but it has been understood from
the first that he would not accept the posi
tion. Probably there is no one mentioned
who would fill the bill better than Magee,
but as matters stand to-nignt he is not con
sidered to be in the race. Though not a
member of the National Committee, he is
entirely available, as, under the new rule
adopted at Minneapolis, the Cnairman and
all of the members of the Executive Com
mittee may be chosen from outside of the
regular membership of tbe committee.
As matters stand at this writing the
choice seems to be between Clarkson and
Sewall, and if Clarkson will accept, he can
boss the operations of the committee dur
ing this campaign. He is wholly averse to
having any further official connection with
tbe organization, and can only be induced
to do so by the most urgent and sincere en
treaty on the part of the President, who
bas perfect confidence that he will act in
good faith.
GROVER IN GOOD SPIRITS.
Dow the Democratic Nominee Put in the
First Sunday After tbe Convention His
Satnrday Luck at Fishing Encourages
Uim to Go Out To-Day.
Buzzabd's Bat, Mass., June 26.
Special The vanguard of ihe Massachu
setts Democracy, intent upon attention to
the nominee of the National Convention,
have found their way to Cape Cod. The
first delegation arrived this morning on the
express train from Boston. A second dele
gation, quickly following the first, arrived
an hour later on a special train,
Mr. Cleveland was expecting them. He
drove over to Buzzard's Bay station, jumped,
out and, walking up and down the Old
Colony platform, was the observed of all
when the train rolled in, Mr. Cleveland
was in high spirits, amiability itself, and
chatted with the station agent.
A mutual recognition of Mr. Cleveland
and the visitors ensued, and they were soon
on the Bourne road in Mr. Cleveland's car
riage', bound for Gray Gables. The day
was passed by the visitors in seclusion at
the Cleveland villa. At night the visitors
were driven to the little railroad station
below the junction. At the junction sta
tion Mr. Quincy and Mayor Matthews, of
Boston, alighted. When questioned, Mayor
Matthews responded: "All is pleasant, and
they are happy at the Gables."
Mr. yuincy, a visitor, thought it prob-
able that Mr. Cleveland Would snend a trood I
portion of the summer at least at his cot- I
tage nere. "They are very pleasantly situ
ated down there, and it is not strange that
Mr. Cleveland desires to remain as much as
he possibly can," said Mr. Quincy.
Yesterday Mr. Cleveland went fishing a
large portion of the day, going out before
midday and returning just at twilight. He
brought home 80 fish, a few scup and a
quantity of tautog and black bass. His
old-time fisherman's luck has returned, and
flattered by this reward he will "trim his
sails to-morrow and point the "Bertha's"
prow toward Little Harbor and troll for
bluefish. t
One week ago Mr. Cleveland'! regular
mail was' less than a dozen letters. Yester
day morning he received 167 letters and a
countless number of papers and packages in
addition, while at night there were nearly ai
many more.
STEVENSON EXCITED.
Tbe Tariff but a Side Issue, Be Declares,
Compared to tbe Force Bill Under Such
a Measure He Would Look for Another
and Greater Rebellion.
Bloommgton, III., June 26. Spe
cial Hon. Adlai E. Stevenson, Democrat
ic choice for Vice President, sat In his re
ception room at his home, this afternoon,
with a dozen or more friends and neighbors
who had called. Something was said about
the issues on which the coming campaign is
to be fought, and the Dispatch reporter
asked Mr. Stevenson what he thought was
the main Issue. He said:
More important Is the tariff issue than the
silver issue, but more important, it seems to
me, than any other issue is the issue raised
by the Republicans tbemselves. 1 mean the
aespicaDie ana dangerous lorce uiii; tne dhi
that threatens the liberty and tbe peace of
the nation; tbe bill which came so near be
ing put upon tbe people of this
cquntry, and which, should It happen
by any chance that the Republican cam
paign In Congressional districts should be
successful, and they elect a majority of the
Congressmen, would undoubtedly be In
flicted on us tnls is the main issue. It is so
far reaching In its consequences that its Im
portance cannot tfe over-estimated to the
people or the Southern States and the people
of tho country.
He Talks as a Southerner.
I am a Southerner by birth, and I know
well the condition of affairs In the North
Conceive the consequence I cannot of any
earnest legislation so threatening to the
peace and prosperity and the happiness of
the people of the whole country, and espe
cially to the people of the South.as the enact
ment of a force Dill. A force bill Is simply
tbe turnins over of all the Southern
States to the power of tbe negroes
and tbe Republican federal officeholders,
and It means, further, the absolute destruc
tion of tbe peace and the prosperity of all
of the country south of the Mason and
Dixon line. I do not mean to assert that
there has never been an outrage perpetrated
on a negro voter by a Democrat, but I know,
of my knowledge, that the negroes generally
are as fairly treated on election day as are
tbe whites, and have little, if any, cause to
complain. For every negro outrage perpe
trated in the South by a Demqcrat there are
two outrages perpetrated on Democrats in
the Republican States of the North.
Rebellion Almost Certain to Result;
The hot-blooded, fair-minded men In tbe
South would not rest peacefully under the
condition of affairs as they would exist
under the iniquitous Republican measure,
and there would be great danger of them
rising up in rebellion and fighting for their
liberty as citizens, and then the country
might again be torn by a civil strive, per
haps more terrible than the warjof 1881.
1 be force bill is nothing more or less than
a theft cf the liberties and franchises of the
white people of the Soutb, a challenge to a
revolution. I know well what the He
publican plans are, provided tbey can get
this wicked bill through. I know that they
Intend simply to take out of the hands of the
white people of the South tbe reins of the
Government, and they mean to do it by
fraud and violence; tbey mean to turn over
that prosperous country to negro .rule and
corrupuonlsts.
General Stevenson denounced the bill in
every phase. There were Republicans in
the room at the time, and they all agreed
with him.
HENEY GEOEGE IB DELIGHTED.
He Predicts the Election of Cleveland as
the Champion of Free Trade.
New Yobk, June 28. Henry George is
delighted. The Democratic platform, and
particularly the free trade plank, is pleas
ing to the single tax champion. He avers
that the Democrats will not only elect Mr.
Cleveland on that issue, but will completely
mop the Republican candidates and the
principles they represent off Mother Earth's
fair face. He returned from Chicago yes
terday. In the exuberance of his mirth he
said:
The only reason for Mr. Cleveland's nomi
nation, and tbe thing that foroed his nomi
nation in spite of all the efforts of politi
cians, was the fact that, in the minds of the
Democratic masses, he represents the idea
of free trade. The platform is an un
mistakable declaration against all parleying
with protection. It puts the Democratic
party In the field as committed to the policy
of sweeping away every shred of a protec
tive duty. If the Democratio leaders show
tho oourage of their platform and make the
campaign an aggressive attack npou the
protection robbery, I look for the election
of Mr. Cleveland, not bv a narrow maioritv.
but by a political landslide.
LABOE UNIONS WANT GEESHAM.
They Offer to Raise a Fund for Him to Use
as a Candidate.
Cincinnati, June 26. Special. A
meeting of the labor people was held in this
city to-night in the interest of Judge
Gresham. When the statement was made
that Judge Gresham was too poor to run on
the People's ticket, and that his indebted
ness prevented him from agreeing to accept
the nomination, it was agreed to start the
movement among labor unions to raise a
sufficient amount of money to overcome his
objections.
There is a strong sentiment in Cincinnati
labor circles for Gresham, and there is no
doubt he would poll 15,000 votes in this
city alone. It was authoritatively said to
night that organized labor would compel
Judge Gresham to make the race, and that
labor would raise (50,000 for him if neces
sary. The meeting to-night agreed to raise
250 for that purpose.
QUAY'S BET TAKEN UP.
A Street Railway Man Sees the Senator and
Raises Him ffto.OOO.
Memphis, June 26. Special. A. W.
Billings, of Chicago, who owns all the
street railway lines in Memphis, has of
fered to wager 20,000 that Cleveland will
be elected and that he will carry New York,
Illinois and Wisconsin by large pluralities.
Mr. Billings bas heard that Senator Quay
made the remark after hearing the result of
the Chicago Convention, that he would
wager $10,000 that Harrison will be re
elected, and he has telegraped the Pennsyl
vania Senator to pnt up.

Topeka,Kan., June 26. The Capital this

Grath, ex-President of the Kansas Farmers'
Alliance, renouncing his allegiance to the
Alliance and announcing his return to the
Republican party.
This course is taken by him, he says, be
cause he has discovered the Alliance to be au

PARNELLITES ATTACK A STREET,
Smashing Windows and Pelting the Mc
Cartbyite Residents.
O'BRIEN AND REDMOND IN TFIE FEAT
Cork, June 26. While Mr. O'Brien was
attending mass this morning a crowd of
Parnellites surrounded the church and con
tinuously jeered and hooted. When Mr.
O'Brien emerged from the church he was at
once surrounded by a crowd of anti-Parnell-ites,
and having boarded a car was escorted
to his hotel. Several fights occurred on the
way, sticks being freely used. . Outside the
hotel a serious conflict arose, in which sev
eral persons were injured. The crowd was
finally dispersed by the police.
William Redmond and the Lord Mayor
of Dublin made an attempt this morning
to canvass Blarney street, an anti-Parnell-ite
stronghold. They were continuously
pelted with stones, and were compelled to
flee. An anti-Parnellite meeting held this
afternoon, addressed by William O'Brien,
was attacked by Parnellites, who used
sticks and stones freely. The anti-Parnell-ites
fled.
Parnellites Raid a Whole Street.
Later Mr.. Redmond and the Lord Mayor
of Dnblin, supported by 3,000 Parnellites,
marched through Blarney street. The Par-,
nellites broke the windows of many houses
as they went along, and the residents took
shelter.in their houses, from the windows
of which they pelted the crowd in the street.
In return Parnellites forced the doors of
several houses and beat the occupants. The
Parnellites then held a meeting in the
street, addresses being made by Mr. Red
mond and the Lord Mayor of Dublin.
After the meeting Parnellites wrecked
the rooms of the Blackpool Bank and
smashed in the windows. The anti-Parnell-ites,
being in a minority, were unable to
cope with the Parnellites, but pelted them
from behind. The police were too few to
stop the disorder. Fifteen injured com
batants were taken to tte hospital for treat
ment. Many other persons were slightly
injured.
Mr. O'Brien addressed an anti-Parnellite
meeting this evening. He began by de
claring that if they were attacked, they,
the anti-Parnellites, would defend them
selves. The issue at stake, he said, was
whether they should abandon Gladstone
and all chances of home rule by electing
factionists, or whether they. should stand a
united party to Parliament.
r'A Redmond to IrUh-Amerlons.
John Redmond addressed 'sTmeeting in
Cork Saturday night. He said that tbe
Parnellite proposals were approved by an
overwhelming majority of the Irish in
America, and that the anti-Parnellites in
America were army officers and no men.
The Parnellites, he said, were determined
not to be driven from public life.
A dispatch from Limeriok says: Mr.
Jordan, M. P., was attacked by a crowd of
Parnellites to-day on arriving in this city
to address an anti-Parnellite meeting. Mr.
Jordan was struck on the head, his hat
being smashed in, and he was compelled to
take refuge in the railway station. A strong
detachment of police afterward escorted
him to his hotel. On the way the Parnellites
hooted and stoned the police, who finally
used their swords to disperse the crowd".
Several arrests were made.
GLADSTONE ALL RIGHT.
An Immense Audience Hears Tafmage
Denounce Saturday's Outrage.
London, June 26. The injury which
Mr. Gladstone received in Chester yester
day by being struck in the face by a missile
is progressing favorably. His son Herbert
telegraphs to-night that the inflammation of
the eye has abated considerably, and is
likely to be followed by no serious results.
Mr. Gladstone is in excellent health, though
he is confined to the house.
There was a remarkable scene this morn
ing in the City Temple, where it had been
announced that Rev. Br. Talmage would
preach. The building was crammed to the
doors, and hundreds were unable to gain ad
mittance. Rev. Dr. Parker opened the pro
ceedings by referring to the attack on Mr.
Gladstone. He said it had been reported
that Mr. Gladstone had been brutally as
saulted last evening. He characterized the
outrage as mean, cowardly and damnable,
and he asked those in the audience of the
same opinion to rise. The entire audience
at once arose. Dr. Talmage said: "I agree
with Dr. Parker that it was an infamous at
tack. In 24 hours you will hear loud thun
ders of indignation rolling back from
America." Other speeches were made, which
were continuously interrupted by cheers,
shouts of "Shame and hisses.
CAPTAIN MAYES'S FUNEEAL.
The Grand Rabbi Preaches Toleration and
Unity Over the Open Grave.
Paris, June 26. The funeral of Captain
Mayer, the Hebrew's champion, who died
Thursday night from a wound received
in a duel with the Marquis de Mores that
morning, was held this afternoon. -The
coffin and hearse were almost hidden be
neath the wreaths heaped upon them. A
company of cadets from the Ecole Polytech
nique, in which Captain Mayer was a pro
fessor, headed the luneral procession. The
hearse was followed by a representative of
the Minister of War, by numerous officers
and by a number of men in public life and
other notables.
An enormous crowd awaited the arrival of
the cortege at the cemetery, where the com
pany of which the deceased was commander
surrounded the coffin and reversed arms.
The Grand Rabbi of France, M. Kahn, con
ducted the funeral service. In his discourse
at the grave he Bald he hoped a spirit of
mutual toleration, respect and charity would
ultimately prevail, and writers and news
papers prtach unity, not discord and hatred.
BOEUP FB0IE8I8 INNOCENCE.
Nevertheless the French Believe He Ped
dled Military Secrets.
Paris, June 27. The Tempi to-day pub
lishes an interview with Captain Borup,
United States Military Attache here, in
which he repeats that the charges made
against him by M. Grenier are gross calum
nies. Captain Borup is anxious to be con
fronted by his accuser. He says the in
quiry he demands will not fail to establish
his innocence.
The ease excitee the greatest interest here,
and the newspapers are extremely bitter
against Captain Borup. The fact that he is
on intimate terms with the German and
Italian military.attachcs here gave color to
the charges tlfat he had given information
concerning French defenses to Germany
and Italy. Captain Borup has been busy
lately sending reports to 'Washington which
are supposed' to be connected with the
charges made against him.
BISMAECE SNUBBED BY B0YALTY.
Fear or tbe Kaiser's Displeasure In the
War) of Francis Joseph's Politeness.
BJunicii, June 26. Prince and Princess
Bismarck' and party started for Kisslngen
to-day. A large crowd was at tho railway
station and heartily cheered the Prince and
sang patriotio songs. The locomotive was
gaily decorated with flowers. At all the
stations along the route bouquets were pre
sented to the ex-Chancellor. The party ar
rived at Kisslngen this evening and were
given an enthusiastic reception. Tbe route
to the baths was lined with cheering
crowds. .
In an interview published in the Munich
Zeiiung, Prince Bismarck said that his in
tercourse of four years with the Austrian
court had always been marked by kindness
and by freedom from discourtesy, and he
could not do otherwise than solicit an aud
ience from Emperor Francis Joseph, which
he did while at Friedreichshause. At tbe
outset the feeling was favorable to the
granting of his request, but it suddenly
changed, doubtless owing to strong Berlin
pressure. The Prince received a verbal an
swer that the audience which he solicited as
a soldier and as an admirer of Emperor
Fronds Joseph could not be granted.
CHUBCEILL LAUDS THE UNIONISTS.
He Thinks Gladstone Will B- Impotent for
Home Xtule, Despite a Majority.
London, June 26. Lord Randolph
Churchill has issued an election address to
his constituents. He says he still believes
it is impossible to put home rnle into a
bill, and that if Mr. Gladstone obtained
ever so great a majority he will be doomed
to political impotence bo long as he ex
hausts his energies in trying to solve what
is insoluble.
The Unionists, adds Lord Randolph, have
a record of work and action second to no
party he has known or read of in modern
times. ,
VEEY BESTAUBANT DYNAMITERS
Arrested a Second Time, With More Com
plete Evidence Against Them.
Paris, June 26. Detectives have started
from here for London to arrest the Anarch

April 25.
Both men were arrested at the time of the
explosion, but were subsequently released

Free Sllverltes Determined to Smoke Out
the President on Their Fad.
Washington, June 26. Special
-Senator Morgan, the wonderfully versatile
"Alabataian, said to-day that tbe Stew
art silver bill would be forced to a vote
this week in the Senate, and that the free
coinage element in the House would be
ready to take it up and make a fight to pass
it and give President Harrison "the pleasure
of signing or the odinm of vetoing it." This,
of course, would have the effect to further
divorce the Republican free coinage people
from their party, and. as Intended, give ad
ditional impetus to the movement of several
Republican States to vote for the indepen
dent or third party ticket.
For himself. Senator Morgan says he is a
Democrat, and cannot be seduced from his
party by any offer of a Presidental or Vice
Presidental nomination, neither in connec
tion with Judge Gresham nor anyone else.
While he is for free silver, he says the
Democratio party is also for free coinage by
a vast majority, and he can therefore have
a congenial home in the party with which
he has always affiliated. He is determined,
however, it possible and in spite of "Sena
torial courtesy," to place upon record, be
fore adjournment, every member of his
own party, as well as tbe Republicans and
the Republican President.
The Stewart bill will probably be modi
fied to embody nothing more than a bold
free coinage proposition, without any ac
cessories which might suggest evasion or
make confusion.

New YORK, June 2& Chauncey M. De

about the crops, or about the beautiful and
cool summer resorts that can be reached by
way of the New York Central Rail

thing further to say about his chances
of being the successor of Mr. Blaine

yesterday that Mr. Depew had written ,a
letter to President Harrison, declining the
appointment to the vacancy in the Cabinet.
When Mr. Depew was asked if the report

"You must excuse me from talking about
the vacancy in the Cabinet. I am willing
to discuss almost any other subject, but I
decline to say anything, either one way or
the other, about the position of Secretary

Are Severely-Injured and
TBE TRAIN A PILE OP SCRAP IRON
Only One Man Was Killed Outright
Two Others Fatally Unrt
and
AN ENGINEER'S FATAL ADMISSION
rsFZCTAt. TELIOBAM TO TOT PISPATCB.l
Ft. Wayne, Ind., June 26. The Key
stone express on the Ft. Wayne division of
the Pennsylvania road met with a remark
able accident this noon, remarkable in tbe
fact that with such a complete wreck so
few passengers were killed and injured.
The train, in charge of Conductor George
Bonter, of Ft Wayne, left Chicago at 10:45,
composed of a mail car, baggage car, three
day coaches, a diner and three sleepers,
carrying about 250 passengers. It was rip
ping along at CO miles an hour, when it
struck a siding twomileseast of Valparaiso,
where the roadbed sets upon a fill 25 feet
high, with a slough of deep mud in the ditch
at either side.
Just at the switch the train left the rails,
bumped along the ties for 50 feet, struck a
cut of empty freight cars on the siding, and
the engine, mail car, baggage car and three
coaches went into the ditch, smashed for
the most part to kindling wood and scrap
iron. Following are the casualties.
Killed:
CHARLES MILLER, Ft. Wayne, fireman.
The fnj nred are:
PETER KILEY, Ft. Wayne, engineer; fatally
injured,
a F. STAHL, Ft. Wayne, mail clerk: fatally.
L. O. CLAPEOOD, Lima, O., mail clerk; faco
cut.
GEOEGE BONTEE, Ft. Wayne, conductor;
head cut.
COETEZ BONTEE, Ft. Wayne, brakeman;
bruised about body.
D. W. MELLINGEE, Leetonia, 0.,mall clerk;
slightly cut.
GEORGE WOODWORTHCrestline, O.. bag
gageman; cut about head.
HAROLD WARNER, Ft. Wayne, a child In
arms, head bruised.
G. W. FYLE, Mansfield, O., passenger; left
ankle broken.
SARAH GOLDBERG, Chicago, passenger,
face cut and body'bruised.
Explanation of Ihs Engineer.
Peter Riley, the engineer, said he felt the
engine drop from the rails and immediately
applied the airbrakes. In another moment
the crash came, and he knew nothing until
he was pulled out of the debris. His fore
head was fractured and he was internally
injured, but he insisted in looking about in
tbe mud for his watch, until he sank from'
exhaustion.
A moment after the cars went over the
passengers began crawling out of the shat
tered windows, and all was confusion for a
while. Then an organized search was be
gun. Buried in the mud beneath the end
of the baggage car was iound tne meiess
body of Charles Miller, the fireman. He
had evidently jumped, but had been struck
by the tumbling car, crushed into the mud,
and suffocated.
At the side of the track was found CF.
Stahl, the mail clerk, who had been thrown
from his car and fatally hurt internally.
Cushions were procured, and he was made
as comfortable as possible, while feminine
hands from among the injured passengers
bathed his wounded head and tenderly cared
for him.
The injuries of the others were compara
tively slight, and there was a general sigh
of thankfulness that the wreck was no
worse, and marvel that the destruction of
life was not greater. The engine was simply
a pile of scrap iron, and the five cars that
went over, being shoved off their trucks by
the momentum of the train, were shattered
from end to end, yet nearly everybody
escaped unhurt.
Disposition of the Injured Men.
The two badly wounded men were taken
to Valparaiso tor medical attention, wniie
the others were put in the uninjured sleep
ers. These were gotten on the track,hauled
back and around on the Grand Trunk to
Wanatah, where a train was made up' and
thev were brought on throuph.
The cause of the wreck is in doubt. A
rail in the switch was brokep, but it may
have been broken by the trucks after they
had left the rails. The most generally ac
cepted theorvis that a flange of one of the
drivers of the engine broke and caught in
the switch, throwing the engine from the
track and breaking the rail.
The Dispatch correspondent was in
the forward passenger coach when the
wreck occurred, coming from tbe smoker,
then facing the passengers in the car. It
was worth while to observe the 30 passen
gers in the car, 4 of whom were women.
The first sensation was a sharp shock, and
then the train was bumping along the ties.
There was a general look of surprise, then
every one was on his feet and grasping a
scat or something to cling to.
In one seat a mother and child were
sleeping. The little one was thrown from
tbe seat by the shock and the waking
mother made a wild grab at him, while
emitting au unearthly shriek. Then her
sister sprang from the, seat just behind,
dragged the child from under the seat and
the two women embraced each other with
the child between them.
Peculiar Effects on Passeneers.
Two women in another seat simply clung
to each other's necks and looked about in
wild fright, but screamed not In a
second men were crying to each other and
to the women not to be frightened, but
just to keep still, the train would soon
stop. It did, but the rear was seen to
bwiug out, a cloud of dust filled the car
and it was felt it tipping up. Everybody
thought it was ,a bridge breaking through,
and each thought that the next moment
would be his last, but there was no outcry,
not even a groan.
There was silence until the car settled
down and was still. Then there was laugh
ter and horror hnd a confusion of voices,
while some were creeping out of windows
and others were breaking down the door
with an ax. No one felt sale until he got
free from the car, and then the first impulse
was to get as far frorathe wreck as possible.

Vicksbdrg, June 26. While passing a

Since the excitement over the terrible
disaster has become calmer, -Engineer Hugh
Kelly, of the second section of the Western
express, is coming in for a part of the blame
of the accident He testified before the
Coroner's jury yesterday that he was run
ning at the rate of 40 miles an hour when
the collision took place. A city ordi
nance limits the speed of trains
within the precincts of the city to 15 miles.
Had the lesser rate of speed been main
tained, Kelly admitted he could have
stopped his train in time to avert the col
lision. The operator at the Dock street
crossing gave Kelly the danger signal, and
he had 200 feet space to stop, but Kelly as
serts that he could not see the light on ac
count of the severe rainstorm.
A prominent railroad official to-day said
Kelly is blamable in not having his train
under control when passing a block station.
The coroner's jury has not finished its in
vestigation, but it is generally believed that
Kelly will be indicted, along with the op
erator wno is now in prison.
The Dock street operator is excused from
all blame. 'He made desperate efforts, to
stop the section. His block signal was
properly displayed, and he also waved a
red lantern from the platform of his tower,
but he said to-day there seemed to be no
slackJn the speed of Kelly's train, and he
knew what the result must be, as the first
section was. running slowly, only a short
distance west of his station.
Kelly has been in the service of the
company for 21 years, and this is his first
accident The body of one of the dead
victims was identified as J. Black, by his
collar button, on which tbe name was
engraved. It is not known where Black is
from. The friends of John Black, of
Altoona; were here last night, but they
were sure the dead man did not belong to
them.
Officials of the Pennsylvania road are
expected here to-morrow to investigate the
cause of the accident

a charge of libeling Excise Commissioner!

Association Hall for the last time dnringj
the summer months. As a prelude to his1
sermon he made a statement of some of the
facts and the official record of Commissioner!
Koch upon which the so-called libelous sen
fences in the Eerieu of May 29 were based.
Mr. Dixon said he had never seen Koca
nntll he took the witness chair. "I had a
