The Western papers joyfully an. nouDce that the corn crop is out of danger, and that the yield will ex ceed 200,000,000 bushels. They are having a red-hot cam paign in Virginia, but the chances are that the Republicans will be cbettted and defrauded out of the result The election in Ohio comes off on Tuesday next. The Republicans have made an exhaustive campaign and will surely win if the Democrats and Prohibitionists do not coalesce at the last moment It is announced that Mr. Day, the Democratic candidate for State Treasurer, speaks Pennsylvania Dutch. After Col. Quay makes him walk Spanish he will be quite an ac complished gentleman.

That Reverend political acrobat Henry Ward Beecher, has seen the hand writing on the wall in New York, and has flip-flapped Lack in to the Republican ranks with the announcement that the Republican State ticket ought to be elected. It looks as if there was need of a new reciprocity treaty between the President and his party. There is no mistaking the fact that they are not pulling together, and that the President will havo to go back on bis professions if he wishes to main tain party unity. The Democrats who last year howled themselves hoarse over civil service reform, are now busily de fending Southern frauds on the bal lot box. For unadulterated hard ness of cheek and unblushing im pudence nothing will compare with the modern Democrat the great surplus in the Treasury. ) We do not hear anything of it now. And yet by refusing to use it to re duce the debt it has been constantly accumulating, and is to-day greater than under the Republican admin istration. The pile makes Manning and Jordan feel proud just to look at t occasionally. Thure are now In the vaults of the Treasury at Washington fifty million silver dollars which contain only eighty cents' worth of silver. The government cannot force this coin into circulation, and yet the coinage of this currency, that is not current, 6till goes on. It is simply a bare-faced attempt to keep up the market value of silver, for the bene fit of a few owners of silver mines, at the expense of the taxpayers of the United States. The New York Time and Even ing Post, "Independent" Republican journals which supported Cleveland for President, are openly and ear nestly opposing the election of Gov ernor Hill, the present Governor of the State. The New York U rnU, one of the most energetic Democrat ic supporters of Cleveland, is also opposing Hill's re-election, and on the whole it looks as if the State of New York will go Republican by a handsome majority at the coming election. A chart has been prepared in the Agricultural Department showing the size of Uncle Sam's farms. From a ctreful investigation it is found that there are within the limits of the States 385,000,000 acres of im Droved land. 445,000.000 acres of forest and 730,000,000 acres of un improved and waste untimbered land. Incidentally it is found that forests are disappearing at the rate of 25,0(10,000 acres each year. The forest product for the census year was lS,o,000,000 feet board ineas' ure.

D Youkgtows, On Oct 4. A tele gram received here to-day state that John Magown, a postal clerk employed in the railway mail ser vice, and innninir between Pittsburg and Crestline, was arrested at the latter place last night and taken to Cleveland to answer a charge of il legal voting.

After he moved his family across the line, and prior to voting here, Mr. Megown present ed the auestion to his superior offi cer as to bis right to vote in Ohio, if he did not vote else w Here, ana was informed that he could. A year ago he was arrested on a chares of u lezallv votinz here, and after a full hearing honorably acquitted. His record in the postal service is first claro, and it is believed the present prosecution is for the sole purpose of pettine him removed to make room for a hungry Democrat.

The New York Timet, a leading advocate of Cleveland's election, in its issue of Wednesday last says : "The Democratic State Conven tion has bid defiance to common " 6ense, common decency and to the "President of the United States. "And it took down a portrait of " General Grant which happened to " be in the hall in which it met, and put it out of sight" In another article in the same issue it talks as follows : " Possessed with the spirit of Re- "elzebub and led by Tammany " Hall, ihe New York Democracy " has rushed violently down a steep " place into the sea. The choking will be attended to on the 3rd of " November." Huntingdon, Sept 30. Since the suspension of work on the South Pennsylvania Railroad a portion ol the country through which it pass es has become infested witn foot pads, there nave been so many attempts at highway robbery that people fear to travel by the ordinary m ethods and the usual routes with out protection.especially after night One of those on whom an assault was recently made is Hon. William Horton; ex-member of the Legisla- lature, who was attacked near aide ling Hill tunnel while on his way home from. McConnellsburg. He bafHed his assailants. These at tempts are attributed to discharged workmen, who in utter desperation have taken to the road. They over run the country for miles, especially northward towards the Pennsylva nia Railroad. HlxMen Boned in a Sand-Bank. Gxrqk W. Curtis, the editor of Harper' Weekly and the great Mug wump leader in New York, is urging the election of the Republican can didate for Governor, on the grounds that his success will be an indorse ment of Cleveland's course in regard to civil service reform. Queer fel lows, these mugwumps ! The Scranton Ripuliiican insists that the clerk of the Orphans' Courts of the several counties should pro vide a separate and proper office for tbe issuing of marriage licenses, so that blushing candidates for matri mony shall not be required to trans act their business in so public place as the clerk's general office. Hon. B. F. Meyers retired from the editorial chair of the Harrisburg Patriot on the 1st inst and was sue ceeded by W. P. Hastings, of Jeffer eon county, who has taken a five years' lease of the paper. Mr. Mey ers was one of the ablest Democrat ic editors in the State, and his party as well as the profession will miss his versatile pen. George W. Ccktis, the great Mug wump leader, insists that the best way to sustain President Cleveland is to vote the Republican ticket in New York. Mr. Curtis sees that the Republicans whom he led astray last year are returning to the fold, and while following them back into the party, tries to cover up his tracks by still hallooing for Cleveland. A few so-called Republicans in Philadelphia who supported Cleve land for President and attempted to get up an organized movement against Blaine, are now attempt ing to effect an Independent organi zation against Colonel Quay. They are finding but little encouragement outside the Democratic ranks, and I he campaign now on band is only the entering wedge of the great battle of next year, when a Govern or, Congressman and other impor tant officers will be elected. Repub licans should see to it that a full vote is polled for Colonel Quay. His election by a triumphant majority assures a victory next year. Tbe Democrats are organizing for a still hunt not with the expectation of beating Col. Quay, but to so reduce the Republican majority as to have an effector next year's campaign. Both wings of the party are heart ily iu accord ; both are earnest in their desire for his election, and there is no doubt of his having a magnificent majority if there is a full vote polled. Let it be the aim of every good Republican to see that the vote is out Pittsburg, Sept 30. About two miles from Hays Station, on the Pittsburg, Virginia and Charlestown Road to-day a sand-bank caved in on six workmen, burying them out of sight A tool bouse which stood above the bank collapsed, many of the timbers being imbedded in the sand so that they were difficult to remove, and forming a roof over tbe imprisoned men, whose families gathered about and much impeded the eltoru of tne men who came to the rescue. The last to be dug out was Bernard Milligan. All the time his groans could be distinctly heard. His courage, he afterward said, was kept up by tbe cries of his wife to "cheer up, Barney, you will Boon be out." Mifligan was wedged in by a rafter. There was a juyful scene when his prostrate form was uncov ered, and all who witnessed it were moved to tears. The six men were painfully but not seriously hurt Quay and Magee Talk Tblnga Over. Pittsburg. Oct 2. Shortly after .7 o'clock this morning a battery of boilers at the Solar Iron Works of CLuke & Co., on Thirty-xth Street, exploded, and nearly score of pep sons were injured. The night turn had just been relieved by the day force when the explosion occurred, and that portion of the works in the vicinity of the boilers was filled with a cloud of steam. Through the dense mist came shrieks and groans, as soon as the steam cleared away a rush was made for the spot where the exnlosion occurred, when it was ascertained that the mud drum of the boilers bad exploded, and that the escaping steam had, scalded sev enteen men. Closer InTestigation showed that of this number four teen were badly burned, and that three were fatally injured. " Two of the latter have since died. The injured were found lying as they fell Some were so far away from the battery that it seemed im possible that they could nave been injured by the explosion. The large number of boys hurt is accountedfor by the fact that they were employ ed the in hoop! iron which was roll ed in the mill nearest the boilers. It was fully twenty minutes after the explosion before the boy Frank Murray was taken out from under the truck where he was thrown. In addition to bein? scalded he was terribly crushed by the weight of iron that was piled on top oi mm. James Cattoe and Frank Mar tin suffered the most from the escap ing steam. Both died after being taken out Those most seriously injured were taken to the hospital, while the oth ers were removed to their homes. The interior of the finishing mill presented a terrible sight of desola tion after the accident The boilers, six in number, form a battery which is located in the extreme Southwest corner of the mills. The mud drum runs lengthwise under all six boilers. It was the end ot this which blew out With such force did it explode as to scatter destruction on all sides. All the boilers were unseated. Two of them were tilted back and some of them are on end. In the rear the whole wall of masonry was moved outward. A very remarka ble feature was Xhe jamming of the mud drum's head against one of the engines, mis engine was situated few yards North of the boilers. The burst iron blew directly against the cylinder head of the engine, smashed it to pieces and blew the whole head inward, r rom this the steam rushed out with a loud, his sing sound. Large stacks of hoop iron were blown all over tbe milt. Machines were upset, rolls turned over, and, in one instance, a wheel barrow was trundled through a door Tbe iron machines and benches were all thrown together in inextri cable masses, under which several of the men were buried. The Philadelphia Time says: "The Democratic organs of this State are only hurting themselves and their candidate for Stite Treasurer by unfairly stating Colonel Quay's military record. It is true that the Republican candidate resigned pre cisely six days before the battle of Fredericksburg, on account of con tinued ill health, but it is also true that several days later, when he learned that a battle was probable, he returned to the camp and insist ed on going to battle with his regi ment Whatever Colonel Quay has been or done since the war there is no question as to his personal bravery in the field, and attempts to misrepresent it can only react on those who make them." The above is true, and tbe battle referred to is that of Fredericksburg, and after it Col. Quay was specially complimented in general orders for his bravery. There was an immense Republi can mass meeting held in Cincinnati last week, far exceeding in numbers any ot the Blaine meetings ot last year. The desire of the thousands present was to hear Senator Sher man discuss the new form of in equalities caused by the political frauds in the South. He replied to the speech of Judge Hoadly, the Democratic candidate for Governor, and among other things said : What did Judge Hoadly aay when he All difference between Christian L. Magee, whose candidate for the State treasurership nomination was defeated, and Colonel Quay, ho defeated him, appear to have been healed. Ihe young leader from Pittsburg and the older statesmen from Beaver were both registered at the Continental Hotel yesterday, and they spent several hours togeth er in friendl7 chat Mr. Magee ar rived in the city several days ago, and on last t nday, in a long talk with Chairman Cooper, renewed the assurances of bis active support of Quay. Yesterday these assurances were repeated to Colonel Quay per sonally. Mr. Magee said that Re publicans in the Western part of the State, especially in Allegheny, were united, and that the full party vote will be polled for the State ticket. 1'hila. Prens, Sept. 28 fa. Fighting with Clasped Hand. A Relic Recovered. fiTTSBURO, uct o. ihe corner stone of the old House of Refuge at Woods Run disappeared when the building were torn down to make room for the Riverside Peni tentiary. Last evening it was un expectedly discovered in a mortar covered, mud bespattered blook of sandstone out of which a mason was trying to chisel a piece of curb ing. The first blow of the mallet disclosed a carefully sealed opening out ot which tumbled a flat tin box about twice the size of an oyster can. The box was found to contain a plea for a reform school in Wes tern Pennsylvania : plans and speci fications for the Reform School building by J. W. Kerr ; a report of the institution for 18o2 : copies of the "Commercial Journal," Pitts burg "Dispatch" and Pittsburg "Gazette" for 1853 and three-cent five-cent and ten-cent silver pieces. The collections of coins was much more meagre than that usually found in corner stones, but as Dep uty Warden McClam, of the rem tentiary, remarked, the House of Refuge people were mighty hard up in those days.

A ter rible accident happened on the Fer gus Falls brauch of the Northern Pacific railroad asven miles west of here thia morning by which five men lost their lives and ihirty or forty more were more or lees injur ed. John RobinBon's show" left Wabpeton, DakoU, for thU place in two sections. When within sev en ; miles of Fergus Falls, near a place named French, the bead or baggage section broke in two while going up a heavy grade and ten or twelve can went flying back at a terrific rate. On the rear of the train were three sleeping cars, occupied bv workmen, over 200 in number, all of which were sound asleep and not aware of impending aanger. The cars which bad broken loose increased their speed as they ap proached the second section or cage section, and probably had run a mile before they struck it The engineer of the rear section saw the cars approaching, but bad only time to stop his tram beiore h struck him. The brakemen on the loose cars tried to put on brakes, but they had;difficultly in running from car to car on account of the wagons which impeded their pro- gresss. nad tne engineer oi tue rear section bad a moments more time be could have backed his tvain and avoided tbe calamity, but it was too late and the cars sti uck his ... . , r engine wiin iremenaous iorce, throwiogtnree sleepers irom tnetrscx and smashing them beyond recognition. The result was soon apparent, as more than 100 men were buried in the debris. The scene can hardly be described. The night was fearfuly dark and the groans of tbe men were appalling. The people in the near vicinity at once began tbe work of removing the victims nve oi horn were found dead and . , i , i many otners wounaea anu bleeding. Word was at once dis patched to this city and a train in charge of Superintendent Vining at once hastened to the scene, and the dead and wounded were brought here. The work of removing the men from the debris was a sorry task. A man alive and uninjured was taken from under two dead ones and it was simply a miracle that he escaped.

In the village of Cottonwood Point tn this state, on rnday night, two drunken strangers got into a dispute and then had a rough and tumble fight over the weight of a bale of cotton, but they were separated by bystanders Shortly after, however, the men re newed their fight and mutually agreed, in order that neither should have an advantage over the other, that tbey should clasp their left hands together and fight only with their right hands. Thus arranged, each man, with a revolver in bis right hand.began the dloody work. Seven shots were ex changed, and one of the men fell dead with four bullets in his head and breast while the other sank to the ground bleeding and dying from two or three desperate wounds.

He found the banks of Kasai River down to its junction with the Congo more thickly popu lated than any other portion of Af rica. For twenty-eight hours he had to negotiate between crowds of fero cious cannibles belonging to the Bakoutous tribe. Men and women gathered in thousands on the river bank, shouting, yelling and gestae ulatinz furiously. The women were more ferocious than the men. Final ly the Bakoutous attacked the ex pedition in fleets of canoes, the wo men beating their breasts and throwing spears. Lieutenant Wise mann and his men repulsed them after a hard fought battle, which lasted four hours. They killed hun dreds of men and women. The en tire region traversed was found to be very rich in ivory and rubber forests. The Kasai is a noble river, being in some places five miles wide. It flows iuto the Congo nearly 400 miles below the point indicated on the maps. A Poly gm 1st ctentenced. Salt Lnkk City, U. Oct 2. Edward Brain was convicted of un lawful cohabitation to-day. His latest wife, a Danish girl testified freely as to their marital relations. Brain made a long statement to the Court, maintaining the truth of his belief, of which he said he was as sured by a direct revelation of God to himself. His covenants, he said, were made for all eternity and he would stand by them at all hazards. Judge Zane reminded Brain that two of his wives in this "eternal cov enant" of which he spoke were al ready diyoroyd from him. , His first wife was dishonest in her old age. To talk of this being an "eternal covenant' under divine command was blasphemy, and be was tired of hearing such hypocritical cant The Court sentenced Brain to six month in jail and pay a fine of f 300. . Mafwaasma Peaoanccd aa Traitors. Raleigh, NT. C. Sept 29. During ing tbe night of Saturday, Decem ber 24, 1883, Mrs. Olive Gunter, aged 89, and Miss Jane Gunter, aged 64, were murdered at their home in the McQueen Road, near Piltsboro. Mrs. Gunter's grandaughter, a child of 8 years, was also beaten insensible, and when she recovered her mind was' a blank as o what bad happen ed. On July 4, Edwin Finch, aged 70, Miss Susan Finch, aged 81, and a negro boy who lived with them, were found with their brains beaten out at tbeir residence, which was near that of the Gonters. It is be lieved tbt all the crimes were com mitted by tbe same persons, and Jerry Finch and wife, who were for merly slaves of Edwin Finch, Lee Tyson and John Pattishall, all col ored, were arrested and taken to the Piltsboro jail. On the night of An gust 24 disguised men took the wife and sister of Jerry incb, hung them to a limb of a tree and tried to extort information from them as to both murders, but they persisted in declaring that tbey knew nothing. DEMANDING TBE KEYS. . Last night a large body of dis guised and armed men rode up to the jail and demanded the keys. They were refused, and the door was broken down with axes and the mob rushed in. The negroes had been awakened, and knew their doom was at band. Harriet Finch screamed so loud and long that she alarmed the citizens, but it was too late; the cell doors were broken down and the four negroes each put on a horse with a disguised man astride behind each. The men made no outcry save to protest their inno cence, but the moans of Harriet were heartrending. A mile was quickly passed, and the cavalcade stopped in a grove. The negroes were tied bands and feet, and made to stand up on their horses. They were giv en five minutes to make any confes sion and to pray. They protested their innocence to the last and as they prayed the horses were led out from under them. At noon to-dav the bodies were still hanging, and were looked upon by thousands. No caps had been put over tbeir faces. Ihe men looked natural, but the features of Harriet Finch betokened abject ter ror. In the opinion of tbe people who have followed the investigation step by step and are well acquainted with the evidence, four innocent ne groes have been hanged. It is as serted that there was not suffcient evidence for the grand jury to have found a bill against any of the lynch ed persons. GKNEEAIi1 fLECTlOH PROCLiHATIOH. wn SHEAS.
