The Lincoln League.
At the meeting of the Lincoln League
last Friday evening Thos. Alexander, Esq.,
of the Ist ward was elected to represent
the League at the coming National Con
vention, with P. W. Lowry, Esq., as al
ternate. Mr. Brymer presided at the meet
ing. He makes an excellent president.
..The J.eague will have a meeting this
(Friday) evening, which will be addressed
by Col. Thompson.
Vote a Straight Ticket.
The reading and thinking voter will not
need to be cautioned regarding the short
time until election, nor will it's impor
tance escape him. The summer's record
of hard times, unemployed men, business
failures, suspended industries, etc., can
not have resulted other than in teaching
the intelligent citizen that something is
wrong.
To anyone not blinded by partisan feel
ing it is plain that while depreciating sil
ver, too extensive credits, over stocking,
and speculation may hare had much to do
with the present troubles, one of the most
potent causes has been the feeling of un
certainty regarding tariff legislation. The
Democratic party declares a protective
tariff to be unconstitutional and is pledged
to utterly destroy the policy which has
built np so many of our gTeat industrial
centres, and has materially aided in the
marvelous growth of our country.
It is withia the power of the voter, by
an overwhelming vote against the Demo
cratic party, to restore confidence. In the
face af the strong rebuke of the voters of the
country, the Democratic party would not
be so daring in tariff tinkering, and manu
facturers would see thst the people indorse
the protective policy.
The fear is not that Butler county voters
■will not do their duty by voting againßt
this policy and these hard times, but that
by complimentary votes they will make
the lesson less satisfactory..
Vote the straight ticket. From first to
it is composed of honerable, able and
worthy men, and a vote taken from any
one of them aud given, complimentary or
otherwise, to an opponent, is a distinct
loss, and a blow to the party.
Toor neighbor may be a candidate on an
opposing party's ticket, and may be a good
neighbor and a good citizen, but let him,
ifhewanUyoor vote, come within your
party's lines.
Let it be straight old Republican ticket

Thb visit of the Russians to Paris i* now
called "the greatest drunk on record."
Whole relays of official Frenchmen have
been used up and pat to bed, bat the tall,
ruddy,smiling Muscovites still walk steadi
ly and consume everything set before them.
They pursue their Herculean program with
unflagging zest, kissing all the women,em
bracing the nearest men, shouting "Vive
la France!" and sweetly finding room in
their overladen arms from dawn until mid
night. The fact that the French them
selves did not appreciate its possibilities
shows how overwrought and hysterically
tired they already were. They actually
decided to give their ex-President no pub
lic fnneral at all for fear the Russians
might unpleasantly rt,.Tiember that,among
other fine things, MacMahon was the hero
of the Malakoff tower.
One Meal a Day.
The Boston Herald, a free trade paper,
is authority for the statement that the
aldermen of Lowell, Mass., paid a visit to
the idle districts of that city last Friday
and found that the families of the un
employed were -'hopelessly in debt and
suffering terribly fiom want." The office
of the superintendent ol streets is daily
thronged with applicants for work begging
to be employed at any living wages.
Nor is ttis all. The same aldermen
paid a visit to many of the workingmen's
homes. Tnere they had ocular evidence
that the reports bad not been exaggerated.
Idle men sat in the boose* with despair
stamped on their faces, their wives were
still more despondent, and some of the
children were crying for food. In many
of the houses they were living on one meal
a day—and that a poor one!
And while these people had one poor
meal a day between them and starvation,
with the prospect of losing even that, the
men whose business it is to legislate for
the country's good were fighting at Wash
ington against the passage of a bill which
would have acted immediately to their
benefit, and one of the Senators was mak
ing a fifteen-hour speech in order to ob
struct that measure. '
At the same time the Democratic Chair
man of the Ways and Means Committee an
nounced that the bill which he is preparing
for a reduction of the tariff, and inevitably
for a reduction of American wages, woald
be ready within a few weeks and would be
roported at the earliest opportunity. The
J acts speak for themselves.—Philadelphia
Inquirer.
OCT in Osceloa, Nebraska, W. C. T. U.
standi for White Cap Tar-and-feathers Un
ion. A committee of twelve of the W. C.
T. C., selected for their strength of arm
and tenderness of conscience for the sins of
other/*, on Saturday last, wrote notes to
half a dozen young girls, forging the signa
tares of men whom the girls knew, re
questing a meeting in the park that eveu
ing. When the girls so attempted went
to the park, these twelve were waiting for
them, with tar and feathers, and rods, and
they seized the girls and bound and beat
them, and were tearing off their clothing
to tar and feather their naked bodies, when
the screams of one who broke away com
pelled them to desist.

Brazil, between the in«urgeuu aud th«*

A Railroad Horror,
One of the most horrible railroad acci
'. Nt« that bat ever happened in this coun
try vas that at Battle Creek, Michigan on
the Chicago and Grand Trunk R. R., early
last Friday morning. The conductor and
engineer of a train going East disobeyed
orders as to remaining on a switch or
double track until an excursion train pas
sed them, went ahead on the single track
and collided with a train filled with excur
sionists for the World's Fair. The cars of
the excursion train telescoped, the people
were pinned in among the seats the cars
took fire, and many people were burned to
death. Shortly after the eolliaion, twenty
seven heaps of charred and blackened
flesh was all that was left of that many
people who, a few hours before, were look
forward to a week of pleasure and sight
seeing at the World's Fair.
The herrors of the accident are best
told by the survivors, some of whom
reached Chicago that afternoon.
"■Were you to build a raging fire, and
put above it a gridiron and on that place
50 human beings," said Sir. Harris, "you
could gain some idea of the scenes which
were enacted at Battle Creek this morning.
We were awakened by a terrible crash and,
before we knew it, the roof of the car had
fallen in and everything arcund was afire.
Then the cries of agony from the poor vic
tims rang out in heart-rendering appeals
for aid. Oh, it was frightful, and the mem
ory of it can never be erased from my
mind.
"One poor woman was pinioned in the
wreck to her waist. Her arms and the
upper part of her body were free. She
cried for help and several ot us came to
her rescue, but of no avail. In a frantic
endeavor to extricate her a man pulled
off one ol her hands. It was the most ter
rible sight I have ever seen."
" All about us," said Mr. Holmes, "were
men, women and children held fast in burn
ing embers, slowly roasting before the
very eyes of would-be ssviors. I broke a
window and fought my way through the
flames to a place of safety, and ihen I
tried to help the others. I saw one poor
child with a long rod pierced clear through
his body. Thus impaled he screamed in
his torture until he was dragged from the
wreck."
C. H. and B. 8. Ward, brothers, of More
town, Vt., were in the third coach and
were among the number who escaped un
injured. Alter the crash was over C H.
Ward jumped out on the felt side through
a window. In front of him sat n lady and
her baby. He pulled her through the
window, when she cried out to save her
baby, but the little one was fastened be
neath the seat and perished, while the
mother was taken away by force. Ward
Bays'that in front of the woman was a
young lady and just behind her a young
man. Back of him were two young men.
None escaped. B. S. Ward came out of
the roof in some manner he knew not how.
He jumped off the roof and assisted out
Harvey J. Smith, Mrs. Smith, their son
Frank and their daughter Nellie. All the
rest in this vicinity were killed.
Frank Rogers, of Woonstock, Ont., was
in the seeond coach, one next ta-the smok
er. He jumped through the window and
helped a woman out. Every seat in the
car was occupied except two with «nc
occupant each. There were only seven
that escaped alive from this car.
No one can adequately describe the last
moments of Mr*. Charles Van Dusen. She
had succeeded in getting half way out of
the window, but her limbs were pinioned by
the heavy frame work of the seat she had
been occupying with her husband, and this
had taken fire. Thus held roasting from
the feet up she pleaded and begged for the
help that those outside were unable to
give. Despite her terrible agony Bhe re
tained consciouness to the last aud as the
flames crept up and surrounded her, she
called out her name and address and that
of friends to be notified. "I am a teacher
in the Methodist Sunday school, at Sprout
Brook, N. Y.," she cried. "Say I died
like a Christian." Then the side of the car
gave way and she fell back into the flames.
Her husband had meanwhile been rescued
from the next car into which he had been
driven by the force of the collision. His
limbs were fractured and he also received
internaf injuries.
He retained consciousness until his death
that afternoon, but was kept in ignorance
of the fate of his wife. In his last breath
he asked Rev. Dr. George B. Kulp to send
his love to the two children that he bad
left at homo and also to give them bin
watch.

Waahington Notes.
On Thursday an odd incident happened
in the Senate.
During a tilt between Hill and Butler,
•ome people in the galleries applauded
Hill, and Harris of Tennessee, called the
attention of the Chair to the rule prohibit
ing any expression of approval or disap
proval of a speaker. The Cnair announced
that upon any further demonstration he
would eiforce the rule and clear the gal
leries. "Then, Mr. President," came in a
ringing voice from the western public
gallery for men, "then Mr. President, I
as one the common people, who have no
business here, will leave the gallery now."
Such an unusual occurrence as a speech
or a retort of any kind from the galleries
created a great sensation, and every eye
was turned to the candidate for oratorical
honors, A large respectable, looking man
in a gray suit was seen making his way as
rapidly as possible to the door of the gal
lery. when he was met by a watchman and
escorted from the building.
Attempts of correspondents to interview
him ended in failure. He wa3 polite,spoke
the Queen's English very well indeed, but
refused to say more than that he was from
Pennsylvania, had been in Washington for
six weeks, had grown very tired of the
Senate proceedings, and thought he weuld
express his disgust in the most public man
ner possible and then go home. Alter re
cording this explanation it is needless to
say that the unknown gentleman from
Pennsylvania was perfectly sober.
The applause in the galleries and the
uproar excited by the man from Pennsyl
vania were not all of the incidents, by any
means. When Butler resumed it was to
say that it appeared that the friends of the
Senator from Xew York filled the galleries,
and were disposed to resolve the Senate
into a town meeting. If that were the
case he would invite the Senator from X»w
York to go outside to the street corner and
hare it out. This was said jokingly but
another Senator thought he was in earnest
and made a fuss about.
A compromise was talked of that day
whioh was to provide for the repeal of the
Sherman law on Jan. 1, 1895, and the sell
ing of bonds to maintain the gold reserve.
On Fiday the Senate confirmed the ap
pointment of Mr. Van Allen, of New York
to be ambassador to Italy. Mr. Van Allen
is a millionaire. He contributed a very
large sum to the Democratic campaign
fond last year, and his nomination by Pres
ident Cleveland has caused considerable
adverse criticism. Both the Senators of
this state voted for him.
On Saturday Mr. Cleveland consented to
a modification of the compromise submit
ted to him the day before, and there was a
great jubilation that night over the pros
pect that the end was at hand and con
gress in a week or ten days would be home
ward bound. The fine Italian hand of
Senator Gorman arrainged the final con
ditions to which the administration on one
hand and the Democratic Senators on the
other subrcribed their heroic assent. The
bond feature was stricken out in deference
to the demands of the southern Democrats,
to whom the idea of bonds in time of
peace is more exasperating than the tra
ditional red flag is to the infuriated buil.
In return for this concession the silver
I men agreed with wry faces, it is true, and
amid a vigorous shower of protests to fix
the date of the repeal of the Sherman law
at October 1, 1894, less than u year hence.
The other features of the compromise are
the coinage of the seigniorage of bullion in
the treasury amounting to $40,000,000 and
the permanent retirement of all classes of
notes, except silver certificates, below the
denomination of $lO, their re-issue in the
denomination of $lO and over. When these
ginall notes are called in no more to roam,
the use of silver in the small transaction*
of life will become inevitable. The steer
ing committee presented this proposition
to the various Democrats of the Senate,
and before adjournment that night it had
been signed by thirty-seven of them. Sen
ator Voorhees demurred. He took the po
sition that if unconditional repeal was to
be abandoned greater concessions should
be made to silver; but realizing that poli
tics is the history of compromises and
statesmanship is the science of circum
stances he tipped bis hat to fate and
agreed to the proposition to take judg
ment against the Sherman law, execution
to be postponed for one year.
On Monday it was announced that the
President did not approve of the compro
mise bill, and that upset all the calcula
tions made. Jones, Stewart and Fuller
continued their windwork in the Senate.
On Tuesday there was a general break
up in the Silver forces, the Southern Sena
tors and the Populists deserted the Silver
Senators, who, left standing alone, agreed
that a vote should be taken soon. The
end odtae swiftly and unexpectedly. At
noon the silver men talked aH confidently
ai ever. The vtteran Senator Harris of
Ten i.osee said, "Unconditional r pea
cannot succeed until h — freezes over."
I'ugli of Alabama re-ecboed his daily re
mark of the last week, that "the fight has
only begun." The other southern silver
senators seemed equally defiant. Vet in
side of an hour they all agreed to permit a
vote to be taken. Thus in that short
period the whole bottom fell out of the
contest and the silver senators from the
Northwest reluctantly hauled down their
colors.
At 1 o'clock, while Senator Stewart
Nevada was talking to tbe empty seats, tbe
correspondent met Senator Dubois in tbe
lobby and asked him what the situation
wan. He replied: "The jig is up. The
sout hern silver senators have deserted us
and agreed to aid the administration to se
cure a vote, and we shall not filbuster
againft it. We have done our duty to our
constituents and they can make their own
reply when the next election ar
rives"
This was the first intimation tbat the
battle was over. The news spread like
wildfire over tbe capitol, and the senators
were besiegod to learn what bad occasion
ed tbe sudden break up. As near as caii be
ascertained the causes diflcr according to
the political faith of the silver senators.
The democratic senators from the South
were brought into line by two reasons—
First, the demand ot their constituents for
patronage which was being withheld by
the administration, and, second, a .ficti
tious scare which ht.d been inaugurated in
the South by administration agencies.
Tbe southern people were told that unless
a vote was soon taken, Dave Hill would
have a cloture rule adopted, and therefore
when the Republicans again came into
control a force bill would be passed by the
aid of this cloture. The senators yielded,
therefore, and agreed to permit a vote to
be taken.
The Populists allies changed front lor
another reason. They believe tbat uncon
ditional repeal will aid them to swetp the
West aud Northwest next year. They
therefore aligned themselves in favor fc of
taking a vote. Left to themselves and de
serted by three-fourths of their strength,
tbe senator* for the silver states had no
thing left but acquiesce.

Ohio for McKinley.
The campaign in Ohio was summed ii>
In a dispatch from Columbus last Saturday,
as follows:
There is nothing in the Ohio campaign
to indicate any change in the march of
Governor McKinley to a grand victory on
November ". It was thought a week ago
that there wa? too much Republican en
thusiasm and that the confidence was too
great for the good of the party, but the
meetings of the present week over the
State, which wound up in this city with a
mass meeting for Governor McKinley this
evening,more than justify the claims which
are being made by the Republicans.
The attendance at McKinley's meetings
during this week, afternoons and evenings,
have been something phenomenal in char
acter. The Governor himself stated to
night, that, compared with his meetings
two years ago, those of this campaign are
twice as large and much more enthusiastic.
The people seem to have something which
is of interest to them. On the other hand,
speaking in general terms, the Democratic
meetings, and especially these addressed
by Mr. Neal, have not been of such a char
acter a? to inspire or brghten the outlook
for success.
SOMB visitors to the World's Fair had a
thrilling experience last Saturday. An
elevator man in the Main building lost con
trol of his car and it fell 200 feet before
the brakes caught.
The Wreck at Callery.
Although the P. <£ W. and B. <fc 0.
roads have carried their share of the travel
lers to and from the World's Fair, this
summer, they boast that not a single life
has been lost on their lines. This proud
record, however, came near being broken
at Callery last Monday morning when the
fast train going, wtioh is composed en
tirely of sleepers and which does not stop
at Caliery went flying by and a moment
after was derailed by an open or a de
fective s.vitch. The engine kept the
main track, but the first car left it; the
engineer quickly turned on the air, and
the train was stopped within three rods,
and nobody t-erioualy injured.
The first Pullman was thrown nearly over,
plunging into an embankment of cinders
that acted as even perfect airbrakes could
not have done, stopping the train like
lightning. Of the hret four cars, three are
nearlv a total !«>,-, and the fourth will
need a great deal of rep*ring. The first is
actually splintered, and tne floors of the
next two were plowed up by the tracks so
badly that they will have 10 be replaced by
new onee. All of the tracks sent
t>, the scrap pile. The miracle is that not
only there u one killed, but not one
man, woman or child has a cut or scratch
to take home a - a souvenir of the most ex
citing event in tbeir lives. Several ladies
fainted when they realixen how providen
tial v. 1 lb or escape, but there are no seri
ous results anticipate : ia their cases.
District Passenger Agent Ed Smith of
the Baltimore &> Ohio, and General Pas
senger Agent Bassett of the Pittsburg <fc
Weßtern were, as it happened, both re
turning trom Chicago on this train, and
they were at once alive to the situation.
Of course both were greatly surprised, as
well as pleased, to learn that no one was
either killed or hurt, and they immediately
took steps to care for the passengers until
the arrival of the second section of the
train, some two hours later, when all
aboard the wrecked train, many of whom
had not even left their carß. were transfer
red to the second section and brought tc
Pittsburg, none the worse of their hair
raising experience except, perhaps, for a
shock that ail soon forgot apperently.
But none quite so soon forgot how won
derful h»d been their escape, or how much
had depended upon the coolness and
bravery of the engineer, James Park, and
his equally brave comrade, Fireman Wil
liam Purcell. Both live in Chicago J unc
tion and were obliged to remain with their
wrecked train, but a movement set on foot
at once to raise a purse for the two brave
men netted nearly SIOO, which was tender
ed them with the profound thanks and ap
preciation of the passengers. Then it was
that the engineer and fireman proved that
they were as modest as they are brave.
They politely, but none the less firmly ami
emphatically, refused to take one for
what they insisted was only in the direct
line of their duty, and in no way could
they lie prevailed upon to change their
minds. The committee having the matter
in charge then determined to take the
money to >'ew York and have made two
beautiful gold medals attesting the appre
ciation of the passengers, all 01 whom feel
that they certainly owe their lives or limbs
to the men who prevented them from
crushing into the freight train on the sid
ing at Callery Junction.
The passengers ot the second section
were taken by surpr.-e when they saw
three of the cars from the wreck added to
their train about two miles bey ond the
scene of the wreck. Then they were first
told what had happened, and when the
wreck was reached many got out anil
walked around it. wondering at their es
cape from a terrible cata.-trophe aud listen
ing to the experiences of the paimengers
of the lirst section. Many of those on the
section bad narrowly escaped the same
thrilling experience by not having bee*
able to obtain accommodations on the
Pullman train.
Every birth oiHthe sleepers was occupied
at the time of the accident. M ist of the
passengers were bound to New York and
Philadelphia, the two rear coaches only
being reserved for Pittsburghers.

South Side 2iewt, Pittsburg.
Pete McCann. who has hitherto gained
tome notoriety on the South Side as a lo
cal prize tighter, ha? added to his popu
larity by being the gay deceiver ot Jessie
McMillen. McCann lives on Jane street,
in the Twenty-fourth ward, and his affi
anced Jessie lives with her parents oa
Sarah street, between Twenty-sixth and
Twentj-seventh streets. The lovingyoung
man has for months been paying a good
deal of attention to iiiss McMillan and th»
result is that the young lady appeared
before Alderman Succup and sued him
on a grave charge.
James Sherran, the wide awake con
stable of Succup's office, held a warrant for
the arrest of McCann. The warrant was
served at 7:30 o'clock on Monday evening
and arrangements were made for a wed
ding to take place at 8 o'clock. But Pete
McCann did not appear, While visiting
Miss McMillan it seems that Pete was
loTing another young lady by the name of
Miss Bleichner, from Butler, whom he de

had agreed to be united as »an and wile

the ceremony dawned Miss McMillan
interfered and" informed Father Devlin of
the situation and that gentleman made up
his mind that Peter and Miss Bleichner
should not be joined in matrimony by him
at the Catholic church. The couple,
however, did not get discourged, for they
repaired at once to Allegheny City, where
the marriage ceremony was performed.
Constable Sherran, after learning this
fact, went to Allegheny in search of Mc-
Cann, but the couple had left _ the place
purporting to go on a short wedding tour
About 12 o'clock that evening Miss Mc-
Millan and a lady friend came to the door
of the Sberran's home and with their loud
and hurried raps disturbed the constable's
peaceful rest. They wanted him to go to
Brownstown immediately to arrest Mc
Cann, who was at that time feeling glorious
amidst his friends at his fathers home
celebrating the occasion of his wedding.
The constable, of course, gave sensible
reasons for not making the arrest at such
an improper hour and that he woald sttend
to Mr. McCann in the morning.
Miss McMillan was not satisfied with
the constable's decision and claimed that
be couid not accomplish his duty, as Mc-
Cann and his young wile were preparing
to leave for Butler. Sherran again assured
her that he would "catch the bird'' in the
morning. And according to promise the
young man's arrest was madt at the time
mentioned, lie told the constable that it
was just what he expected. Among other
things, Mr. Sherran asked Miss McMillan
"Why would you not marry McCann?"
"I didn't want him," she responded;
'it's his money I want."
McCann gave bail for a hearing in court,
and it is not likely that his case will be
brought on belore next June's term.
Mr. and Mrs. McCann went to spend
their honeymoon at Butler, where they
are now enjoying themselves among the
young lady's relatives.
