the usual courtesy of announcing his
death to the House.
The S.'nat" having passed a reso
lution to investigate the political
murders in Virginia and Mississippi,
the Democratic press insists that it
is an attempt to manufacture cam
paign thunder, and to again wave
the bloody shirt. This is a very
easy way of ignoring the crimes com
mitted by its partisans.
It is announced that the whisky

fears are realized, a vast quantity of
whisky will be forced upon the mar
ket aud the price must necessarily
fall.
An investigation that is now being

shows that the gentleman who is

even better. Democratic reform ap

the same way as it does in Pennsyl

of the late Mr. Haskell, Representa

sum of $3,0-K) of public mney. How
so much money could have been

sophisticated people, but their won

The Democratic Senate of Ohio
gave Hoadly, the new Democratic

last week, by refusing to confirm his

think, be a deliberative body, which
cool and dispassionate reason will
control, and in which the candidate

favorites, will count fur nothing;
the call is going to he close, and the

thoroughly fitted fur the position,
by a clean record, and admitted
statesmanship, but with good run

January
, at the
Saturday niL'tu. at tlie saloon in
Langeton, u post ofhee vitiate near
here, a large crowd of men happened
in. among whom were Sam, Jim and
Jack Wilburn, brothers and desper
adoes. Old man Andrew McCor
mack dropped in later, "between
whom and Sam Wilburu there was
a feud. Sam, who was half drunk,
proposed, as soon as the old man en
tered, that they should then and
there fight out their grudge to the
death. McLVruiack seemed to have
no backers, and did not fall in at
once, but Sam Wilburn pushed mat
ters, his two brothers supporting
him. Just then Cass Webb stepped
up and said to McComiack : "You
take care of Sam, and 1T1 see that
Jim and Jack don't mix in."
This produced a moment's pause,
during which McCormack trembled
like a leaf, and the three Wilburn
brothers exchanged glances, and
then stepping back, moved to draw
their pistols. Webb, quick as light

er, and cunimenced firing

The other two brothers returned the

Jim fell mortally wounded, dropped
his pistol, dying the following day.
Webb escaped, but is followed by

A HAKROWlSd SCENE.
Meanwhile the scene was harrow
ing in the extreme. It was known
that six or more people were killed,
r were then imprisoned in the wreck
and would perish by the fire. Men,
women and children, bare-headed,
wringing their hands, relatives of
the inmates oi the buildingsuestroy

new of despair at their inability to

The women and children were in the
second and third stories and are up
posed to have been killed by the
falling walls. Mr. Orr and son were
both spoken to while confined un
der the debris, but were burned to
death. The bodies were all recov
ered at 10 o'clock to-night and were
so crushed or charred as to be har
dly recognizable. They were taken
to Sharer's undertaking room, where
the scene batlles description. The
only person in the Orr building
known to have escaped was Frank

perished. Resides these killed the

CAISE OK THE EXPLOSION.
The exnlosion was caused by
fumes from gasoline. A child of
Mr. Orr turned the f.iucet in a bar
rel and the fluid ran out on the
floor. Mr. Orr was mopping it up
when the gas arising therefrom
ignited from the gaslight. John
Cuney and Charles H. Hayden, of
Dunrrzit Benedict's Minstrels, were
blown out of Orr's store through a
plate-glass window and carried clear
across the street, where they were
picked up badly injured and car
ried to a hotel, but will recover.
The damage is estimated at Irani

ed. Rusinees was entirely suspen
ded in the city after the explosion.
The minstrel entertainment was
declared off. It is thought all the
bodies have been recovered.

Lafayette, January 28. John
Ray, a tanner of this vicinity in the
year 1S07 (now seventeen -ears ago)
took a lot of cattle to Chicago, which
he sold, and was never heard of af
terward. It was supposed he had
been killed for his money, and his
body thrown in the lake. Years
rolled on and no tidings of him corn-
ing, he was given un lor dead. His
estate, which was considerable, wa3
' settled, and threw entries stand upon
the records of Tippacanoe County,
declaring John Ray dead, hi wife a
widow, and his debts paid by order
ol euurt out of his property. A day
or two ago he put in an appearance.
He lmd spent seventeen years of his
life in Texas and New Mexico. His
old farm is occupied by a strange
man, who holds a cle.ir title deed
for it. His wit' is stnl living and

A T rain Plunges ThrougU a I lot ten j
Bridge,
Indianapolis, January 31. The
sout.0 bound accommodation train
on the Indianapolis and Chicago
Air Line, due here at 10:30 o'clock
tli is morning, met with a terrible ac
cident, at Rroad Ripple, seven miles
from this city. At that point the
railroad crosses the White River on
a truss bridge of two spans, each one
hundred and fifty feet in length.
The engineer had gone to the bag
gage car br a drink of water and
the locomotive was in charge of the
fireman. When the engine had
reached the centre f the bridge the
fireman felt the structure sinking.
He at the time had his hand on the
throttle, which he opened, giving the
locomotive all the available steam.
The engine Tprang forward with
great force, breaking the couplings
between the engine and baggage car.
The locomotive kept the track, but
the baggage and smoking cars and
a passenger coach dropped through
the bridge and were piled up in
one mass at the loot of the pier, the
smoking car being partially telescop
ed by the baggage car.
THE CAKSON FIRE.
The wreck was partially submerg
ed, but the portion above water im
mediately took fire from the stoves.
The fireman states that when he
looked back, after the locomotive
had reached the south end wf the
bridge, the cars were on fire aud the
smoke was obscuring the scene.
News ol the wreck reached this city
shortly alter it occurred and a wreck
ing train, with surgical and other
assistance, was sent to Rroad Ripple.
On reaching the wreck a chaotic
scene was presented. The bridge
and cars were yet burning and those
present were so lacking in presence
of mind us to be unable to extin
guirdi the flames or relieve the suf
ferers. The ofiicials of the road
worked vigorously and systematical
ly aud in a short time the flames
were extinguished.
Then a search lor bodies was be
gun. Six persons had either been
killed outright or burned to death,
their bodies being charred almost
beyond recognition and horribly
mutilated. The only means ol iden
tification was by incombustible
trinkets known to be the property
of the dead.
dead is the smoking kuixs.
The scnes at the wreck Vere ex
tremely distressing. The dead were
in the ruins of the smoking cars, and
these, one on top of the other, were
in deep water. A skiff was used for
transferring the bodies from the ru
ins of the cars to land. R. J. White,
who was woi king under the bridge
when the train wnt over, says he
thinks the rods pulled through the
nuts, letting tiie bridge down. To
all appearances ore of the breaks
occurred within fifteen feet of the
pier aud another about midway of
the span. White's escape was truly
marvelous. Standing on tlie ice the
falling cars and bridge struck him
on the head and drove him through
the ice and down to the very bottom
of the river. The timbers did not
rest unon him, however, and he
swam out, more dead than alive,
covered with bruises, but i.ble to
walk. The newsboy of the train says
he could have extinguished the tire
with a single bucket of water, but it
was not to be had.
C. C. Loder and J. Ii. Horton
were in the smoking car, at one end
of which lay a man with his skull
crushed and life extinct. Across
the latter and close to the red-hot
tove lay Lyman Clark,a heivy tim
ber binding one of his legs immova
bly. Loder tried to lind an ax, with
which etich car is provided, but it
was on the other side of the car in
three feet of water.
a cry ok despair.
'For God's sake, don't desert me,"
cried Clark, aud we did not desert
him, Mr. Loder says, until the llames
scorched us and we almwst suffocat
ed with smoke. Refore leaving the
car Loder kicked out a window close
bv Clark and left him in agony.
Presently the llames burned the
timber in two at a point close by
Clark, enabling him to crawl out of
the window which had been kicked
out bv Loder.
Conductor Losey says that in live
minutes after the train went down
the entire train was wrapped in
flames, aud in less time than that
all who had not already escaped
were drowned. Frightful screams
came from the ruins near the pier,
but with only two buckets and no
boat we were powerless, and all we
could do was close out ears anil pray
for death to relieve our comrades.
It is believed that all the bodies
of the killed have been recovered
except that of Thomas Parr, who
was working on the bridge and
whose remains are supposed to be
at the bottom of the river. The
bridge and train were entirely de
nohshed.

Ili'NTixoDos. January 30. A
frightful accident occurred yesterday
in Dublin township, ne.;r .Shade
Gap, whereby J). M. I Vterson, a
lumberman, had his head almost
severed from his body. Mr. l'eter
son was engaged in making repairs
j I to tlie machinery ot tlie mill, and
wuue in me act oi stooping ni n
piece of lumber his neck came in
contact with a rapidly revolving cir
cular saw and was nearly cut
thryuh. His companions rushed to
his assistance uud resiued him from
his perilous position, after which he
was conveyed N hi.- home. .Singular
a-s it may seem, Mr. IVteison contin
ues to survive, althoug his recovery
is impossible. The greatest aston
ishment is expressed that tie escaped
instant death.

Talk oftho.PresKlcncy.
Washington, D. C, Feb. 4. Rep
resentative Camnbell, of Johnstown,
?a., speaking of the candidates and
prospects of the Republican party,
says: "In my opinion the Repuhli
can voters have made up their minds
to make the nomination of candi
dates at Chicago. Any person who
is put up by a ring will either not j
make the nomination or else he will
be beaten at the polls. If the per
sons who are put at the head ticket
are nominated fairly will be elect
ed, and if they are not, they will not
le. That is my solution of the verv
simple problem tifthe election of the
ne xt president."
In reply to a question as to the
in ost acceptable candidates General
Campbell added : I consider Rlaine
a candidate, but not in the sense he
was before. If he gets tne nomina
tion it will be because tho represen
t atives of the voters at the National
Convention want him, and because
lie represents more votes than any
other man thev can name. In re
gard to President Arthur, who is
talked of, the same rule applies.
Whether he can be elected or not
will depend entirely upon how he is
nominated, if nominated at all. The
Chicago convention will be a con
vention of the Republican party,
and ray opinion is that the nominees
will be the nominees of the Repub
lican party I mean the whole of it
an that means an election.

thoroughfares of the city. The jew

out lor a short time, leaving his wife
in the store. She taft the store to go
into a room in the rear, and coming
back iliseovered a mualatto crouch
ed at the door ol the safe, forking at
the lock. She screamed, and the
negro sprang up, thrust a revolver'
in her face and ordered her to keep i
quiet or he would kill her. He then j
forced her into the back room, alii
the while threatening to shoot her,
and, after locking her in, made his j'
escape down Coach alley and int j

was lost. An examination showed i
