Terrible Catastrophe at Moore's
Opera House, Sacramento, Cal.
-Seyen Persons Killed and
One Hundred wounded.

SAN FRANCISCO, November ia Sac
ramento dispatch says: Last evening,
during the performance at Moore's Opera
House, the floor gave way killing Z and
wounding about 4 hundred spectators.
The Opera House was situated over a
large livery stable, on Second street, be-
tween X and L, and was formerly used
as State armory and had recently been
converted into theatre by putting up
gallery and tier boxes, making the hall
capable Of seating 1000 persons. The
floor was unsupported except by the
usual beams. AVaudeyille troupe had
engaged the theatre, and being the
opening Of the entertainment the
house was crowded. Soon after
the performance begaa a sudden sinking
Of the Voor was noticed accompanied BY
a cracking Of beams, and directly the en-
tire auditorium, carrying with 1t the
stage and gallery, was precipitated into
the stable below, the rear portion being
partly supported by the stalls below, and
the audience were thrown forward to-
wards the stage. The lights were e1.
tinguished by the conclusion, and scene
Of fearful confusion ensued. The FIRE
alarm was struck, and in few moments
the department was on the ground,
and with the assistance Of the po-
lice at once proceeded TO rescue
the wounded and to remove the dead.
A great crowd in the meantime gathered,
and the excitement was intense.
Hundreds crawled from the ruins unas.
sisted and uninjured. On clearing up
the debris, the following were found
dead: S. ". Perry, Janitor of the
Court House; Frank Mayer and ". J.
Foster, compositors at the Record Union
Office, and Henry WoOdson, formerly
County Treasurer. II. Herman, and two
unknown performers escaped with some
bruises. Eddie Peak, OF the Swiss Bell
Ringers, and Mrs. Wilson, variety per.
former, being most injured = neither
seriously. Many Of the wounded taken
from the ruins are in critical con dition,
and a number will probably die.

ST.. LOUIS, November 1s.-The question
as 70 who was elected to Congress In the
Third District Of this city has not been
decided, and has been 4 matter OF much
comment and some excitement yesterday.
The members of the County Court
with the County Clerk met to-day a. \
canvasstng board and began the examin.
alton OF the county returns previous 10
certifying them to the Secretary Of State.
It appears that from one Of the precincts
20 votes had been returned for Frost, the
Democratic candidate, but that after the
returns had reached the County Clerks
office these figures were changed to 2e2.
The County Clerk had no knowledge Of
this change, yet he stated he believed
the returns had been tampered with in
his Office, and he wished the matter to
be investigated. The canvassers having
only ministerial power, decided that they
could not 60 beyond the face Of the returns
and therefore counted 292 votes for
Frost. This gave the latter majority
Of one, whereas had the original figures
been counted Metcalie, Republican, would
have had a majority. While these pro.
eeedings were being had in the County
Clerks Office Mr.. Metcslfe applied to the
Circuit Court for a mandamus to stop
the proceedings. The writ was issued
and the Transmission Of the returns
to the Secretary of State was stopped
until the case can be heard before the
Court on Monday. The object Of the
mandamus is to prevent the issuance Of
a certificate Of election to Frost. Just
prior to serving OF the writ Of maudamas
on the Board Of Canyassers Col. Barnard,
accompanied by o. s. Deputy Marshal
Geggie, arrived at the county clerks
Office with authority to arrest the can
yasserg and their legal advisers on the
charge Of falsifying returns, but the
action Of the Circuit Court satisfied them
and they have deferred action for the

There are one or two remarks to bemade
about Mr.. Tilden's vote in the North,
We hear much from the Democracy
about the ignorance Of the negroes
and their blind majorities In the
South for the Republican ticket
The negro is not an educated yoter-thAt
we all know. He votes on his instincts Of
self preservation. He votes against The
Democracy for precisely the same rea-
son th2. nearly all foreigners voted
against the Know Nothing party in its
day. He feels that the Democratic party
is, on general principles, against him.
At the North, the foreign element has no
such reason to vote against the Republic
can party. And yet look At the vote Of
New York City and Brooklyn. Outside
OF Mr.. Tilden's 10000 majority in those
two cities, be would have been hopelessly
beaten for the Presidency by the vote OF
the North alone. It was not the intslli-
gence Of New York City and Brooklyn
that gave him that 10000 majority, as
the minute analysis Of it by wards, given
in the New York Times recently, clearly
shows. 1t was the ignorance Of the two
cities that supplied his majority. Some
Of the worst and most dangerous wards
in New York rolled up the denseSt Dem
ocratic majorities.
Now when We put this significant fact
along side OF the fact that Mr.. Tilden gets
his principal majOrlties in the South, we
do not see any reason for special gloria-
cation over the Democratic vote. We
are making no special objection to his
vote in the South (tarcical as tits in Mis-.
sissippi) further than is necessary to an
sEer Democratic sneers At the negro
vote. What We say is that it does not
lie in the mouth of the Democracy to
utter any Sneers about ignorance in the
exercise OF the elective franchise. No
impartial person that We know Of has
suspected the Democracy for many
years past OF being the party Of intslli-
gence. On the contrary, it has been sus.
pec.ed OF lacking in the two grand re-
quisites of great National party, viz,
intelligence and patriotism.
