a delegation of the Baltimore and Phil

Methodist Episcopal church, called
upon the President ''for the purpose of

their thanks for the consideration

Another Horrible and Heart Rending
Affair

Ahan.
Chester, May..22.-This mornginX the
Saratoga, a large iron steamship, which
was to be launched at the Roach ship
yards started from its blocking sooner
than was expected, killing and wound
ing many. Six dead bodies have been
removed.
About forty men were under the
Saratoga when she went off. An order
was given for them to come out, but was
not heard. The names of the killed, as
far as known, are Edward Fowby,
John Nelson, Charles Wright, and Ed
ward Burke. The wounded are, Geo.
Woof, mortally, Barney Cannon and
Walker Parks seriously. 1t is thought
that some of the workmen were killed
and dragged into the water by the ship.
The bodies of the dead are horribly
mangled, one being literally cut in
halves. e----1L-.
Chester, May 22.-The total number
OF dead in consequence of the accident
at the ship yard is seven in addition to
those already reported. ]. ]. Crew was
instantly killed, and Geo. w. Woof and
Barney Cannon died at IL O'Clock.
Three persons were wounded, all of
whom will probably recover. All of
the killed and wounded We're workmen
employed at the yards, and were en-
gagged in knocking the blocks from un-
der the keel. The scene during the
time the ship was going off was heart
rending, men being seen struggling to
escape while the huge blocks under the
ship crushed them to Il jelly. No as
sistance could possibly be rendered by
those who were standing by. Instead
of cheers, as usually greets launch,
wall of anguish went up, and shrieks
of pain rent the air. AS soon as posi-
BILE the dead and wounded were carried
to the yard Office and physicians sum-
moned. About 1900 men are en-
ployed at the yard, and the friends of
nearly all of them rushed to inquire for
them. Flags are at half-mast through
out the town, and work at the yards
has been stopped. John Roach has Or
dered money to be furnished to the
families of the killed and wounded.
John Fountain, who had entire charge
of the launch, makes the following
statement: l found the ship was ready
to move, and called for all hands to get
from under before we commenced cut
ting loose. The men who were down
by the blocking either did not hear the
order or did not obey, as they had fully
five minutes to get out from the time
the order was given until the ship
started. Some of the men remained
underline ship, which is frequently the
case, to attend the forward blocking.

riding a hobby. That journalistic en-
terprise has maps Of the war on the
brain bailey. Now if they were only
correct in their general outline, and in
their detail were in measure but i'm
perfectly correct, they might be very
well to illustrate the ideas that the
Herald force vainly endeavor to make
its readers comprehend, by copious foot
notes and extracts from books upon the

Billy Button Buttoned Up.

Billy Button is the ubiquitous indi-
vidual of Wyoming Territory, but just
at this moment this particular button
may be found attached to the coat
tails of the editor of the Deadwood
Daily Times, in his celebrated charac-
ter of the great American Fault Finder.
The irrepressible and irresistible Will
liam has addressed the editor of the
little sheet aforementioned, a letter in
which he bemoans his unfortunate pos
ition and the position of others SINH
larly situated in the Territory-his
position principally-and unwillingly
goes back on himself and his principles
for once in his life, when he inadver-
tently tells the truth when designating
himself as tender foot. Billy
has been looking in the looking
glass evidently, for he assures the
compassionate editor of the Times that
he never ''saw so many sick looking
men in Deadwood, including of course
the aforesaid ubiquitous but at present
stationary, William Button of the
Hills. He exposes himself badly by
mentioning the fact that "they come
here without a cent in their pockets,
expecting to gobble mp gold by the buck
ct full and they soon go away with a
''flea in their ear, of course this Button
was one of the they party who expected
to gobble and didn't, and now is ready
to go away with ''flea in his ear"
poor, penneless, pitiful, Billy Button
and suggests confdentially to the Editor
that the loan of V ''to pay my way
back to Fort Pierre" would be accept
able-impecunious, impedent irrespon-
sible, insolent William Button-who
should be buttoned up and slowed
away in some dark corner in a pawn
broker shop for the rest of his natural
existence-one of the fools of this
"vain, delusive world" the precious
Billy Button. A man from Gods
country, wherever that may be, q fel-
low of the swash-buckler stripe, who
can outswear the Dutch army of Flan-
ders. The impious, wickedest man in
the Territory, the swearing, profane
"B. B.-a pilgrim" The doleful
William manages to laugh occasionally,
probably when somebody has given him
square meal. He smiles without
doubt with great regularity, and he
lies, yes, deliberately lies, ,..about "those
rascally editors..at Cheyenne" who re-
fuse to publish his communications
about the Black Hills. Lying, loose
tongued Billy Button. For we have
published, and so has our cotempora-
ries in this city published, letters ad-
vising people as to what was best to do
in this matter of leaving Gods country
and coming out here-and we had no
motive in hiding the truth, deliberately
falsifying Billy Button, and Billy ''don't
be sarcastic, but let as down easy"
