zlspechn, dispatch a The Chicago Tfibune.3
RoczfoRp, ILL.,. August Il. The excite
ment occasioned By III. 2. Kimball's star line
announcement that jed. Davis would speak
at the Fair this year has been growing since
Monday, when the letter OF acceptance mr.
rived. Tue publication OF toe letter In the
Tribune and other Chicago papers was the
first information that came officially to Rock.
ford From that moment The excitement be-
came greater, and no " assumes an indigna'
ton that will not be easily allayed unless
JEFF. Davis cancels his engagement. The
Grand Army of the Republic held an mag
nation meeting last night, and passed the 1oi'
lowing resolutions, which were slgaea py
over three hundred of the boys:
Whereas we learn with regyct thGt del.
ferson Davis has beea invited BY the Board
Of Directors Of the Winnebago County Agrl-
cultural Society TO deliver the annual address
at our county fair; aud ~,
Whereas we look upon it as an insult to
the loyal citizens Of Winnebago county to
invite the arbitrator jeff. Davis to address
tho relatives and surviving friends Of thir.
teen thousand men murdered nj Anderson.
vile alone by his orders;
"Resolued, That while as an organization
we Dutc UoluiUS ~ Wv WIN pIthS Pofti~oS
vet as loyal citizens and former soldiers we
feel i. our duty to speak In behalf of the
memory of our fallen comrades, who are no
longer able to speak for themselves.
"PcsoIued. That we protest against the
action of The Board Of Directors. and pledge
ourselves that we will not attend the Fair
nor contribute anything towards making it
a success il the Board of Directors persist in
III, faryrorr3 III trnitOr and
ard. ... "a
"Resolued. That these resolutions be
signed by the members of this Post, and
published in the county papers"
But the excitement is not altogether con-
fined TO Rockford. A number OF the VIM
nebago County towns are already up in arms,
and resolutions of the most threatening cha
racter are being passed.
A correspondent from Roscoe writes to
the Gneette, of this city, and says: - Our
people are unanimous in their condemnation
Of the insult, and have not been so stirred
I'D by any event since the close OF the war.
The farmers declare they will bolt the Fair
il JED. Davis comes"
The manufacturers Of Rockford declare
they will send nothing to the Fair. The
Board of Directors of the Agricultural SO.
ciety meet tomorrow to reconsider the mat
ter. ......
To-tlay's Gazette came out with az very bit
ter article, in which it says: "To bring
JEFF. Davis here is 10 insult every soldier Who
wore the army blue during those four years
of bloody war; to harrow the feelings OF
every widow and mother whose husband or
son was starved 10 death at ADdersonville,
shot at the dead-line, or on the numerous bat
tle.telds OF the South and all for the sake OF
adding TWO or three hundred dollars to the
Golfers of an agricultural society,"" ....

A TERRIBLE MINING ACCIDENT THREE
MEN KILLED. Scranton, August 14.-Ihe
Point Pleasant mine, near this city, was the
scence of thrilling accident this morning,
by which two young men were instantly
KILLED and another so seriously Injured that
death is momentarily expected. The main
entrance TO the mire is effected through Il
slope 1900 feet long, and driven at an angle
Of thirty.three degrees, through which coal
is hoisted up from the diamond vein which
the company Is operating at present. Shortly
alter 7 O'Clock this morning patty of six
miners started to walk down the shaft.
When about half way down, the men at the
bead.house proceeded to lower empty
cars for the miners, according to custom.
AS the woIkmen had just pushed the
first car from the lapdipg the graphing
nook became detached, and the car dashed
down the steep slope with lightning
like rapidity, overtsking David Owens,
Evan Davis, and Thomas Sterrit about mid.
wsv in the gloomy passage. owens ana
Davis were instantly killed, and thrown
some forty feet from where they were struck.
S.prrit received horrible cash across the
forehead. and was rendered lnsensiole. Tue
car jumped the track at this point, ana
knocked down some of the props support
inp the roof, causing shower OF rocks 10 lail
down and smash the Car and block up the
slope. The men accompanying those WHO
we're struck took refuge behind the track 10
narrow bed scooped out OF the rock, ana
ESCAPED unburt. Thomas D. BeVan, tore
man of the mine, declared that IN an eApefl,
ence Of twenty years be had not witnessed
anything so truly thrilling in IFS ehects as
when the car shot down the plane IKE

they stood powerless to prevent the la!e

Extraordinary EXPlOsiOn-A LOcom0-
tive Blown TO Pieces-FrasInents Fly
ing aheuf-NobO{ly Killed.


BosroS, August 14.-About 4:30 yesterday
afternoon treight-englne No. exploded III
the freight-yard of the Fitchburg railroad,
at Charlestown. The engineer, fireman, and
a brakeman were on the engine at the time.
The two former were blown out Of the cab
and landed on the roof of car in resr of the
tender, escaping without serious injury. The
brakeman, Edward Hacket, was thrown TO
the ground and horribly scalded, but may
recover. The cause of the explosion is not
ascertaiued. The engine Was thought to
be in good order. The force Of tue eX
poson was very great, and it seems
miraculous there was no loss OF lie.
Pieces of the boiler weighing some two bum
dred pounds were blown through the side
wall of a wooden freigh house twenty feet
distant, in which several men were ut work
handling freight, all OF whom escaped in
Jury. Rails were torn from the track beside
the engine and bent as though made OF lead.
One raj! was carried fifteen feet and forced
through the wall of the freight del0t. On
the track beside the engine was train OF
freight cars, and one standing opposite. The
locomotive was made complete wreck.
Fragments of the boiler and other portions
OF the eugipe were blown in all directions.
4 uiece of the boiler weighing thirty-tWo
hounds was blown into the air, aud, falling
nearly quarter of mile from the scene of
the NDlo>ion, pa> sed through the roof Of st.
Johns Episcopal church, on the corner OF
Bow and Richmond streets. and lanGed in
the main aisle within three feet Of where
woman was engaged washing up the
floor. A portion of the bell of the engine.
weighing ten pounds, struck the roof
OF house No. 81 Union street, an eighth Of a
mile distant. passing through two thick
nessrs Of board and lodging in an eight-nch
timber, which i, cut clearly in two. The
tongue of the bell, weighing ten pounds.
struck the roof of house No. l6 Richmond
street, near st. Johns church, and passed
through 10 the secoDG-Story ball, and fell at
tue feet of Mrs. 5. kelron aud her two chill
drep. A gentleman passing along Bow
street, u quarter Ola mile distant, was struck
on the head by fragment of the boiler aud
severely cut. The chimney of the" L ola
house in the rear of ST. Johns church was
demolished bya falling fragment of the boil
er. and several houses in the vicinity were
more or less injured by these flying pieces OF
iron. Pieces OF hot iron fell in the streets in
the immediate vicinity OF groups of children
who were at play, yet, so far as heard from,
none were in the least injured.

About a year ago that firm employed, on; o

that Church, immediately atterhis engage

went to David Phillips, q small commission
dealer, whose place of busiDess is at No. 308
Canal street, and stated that Jaffrny Il 70.
had authorized him to purchase all ribbons
Of certain width aud manufacture, and that
if Phillips would act Us bis broker, he would
make all purchases and divide commissions.
To this arrangement Phillips assented, stip-
ulating, as he claims, that previous TO the
rendering OF the bill it was to be satisfacto-
rily shown that the amount of goods charged
had really been purchased from the manu-.
lecturers. 20 :' -.,ssr 5'.S
1t, hes since transpired that Church, who
had the entire confidence of the firm, used
Phillips merely as 4 tool, and induced him to
present bills Tor goods which were never
purchased; and when payment was made by
Jatfray & Co. to Phillips the proceeds of the
checks were given to Church, the commits.
sions being deducted. On Monday last Jaf.
fray s. Co., thinking that Phillips was impli-
Gated in the defalcition, had him brought
before the grand jury. he gave an account
of the transaction, but no steps were taken
against him. The former employers Of Phil
lips aud Philip Schulboff & Co. speak highly
of him. and say that they have known him
for ten or twelve years, and believe that he
has been unwittingly made the tool of
Church. f " -
The total dedication is said to reach $40.
900. Church, who is married man with
small family, left the city about two weeks
ago. Detectives have been employed to ar.
rest him, but as yet his place of hiding has
not been discovered. He is said TO have been
a good salesman, but to have been very di$si-
pated in his habits. He boarded at the West
minister Hotel, where bis wife still resides.
The defalcation is a great surprise to the
trade, as Jaffray & Go. are noted for careful
scrutiny Of the transactions of persons en-
ployed By them.
