quaint his readers with the fact that in
Breathit County, Kentucky, there was q
voting population Of 1900, and that 800
of toeee we're under indictmant for Grim
inal offences. This tie Deacon regarded
rs o clincher in the argument to prove
tho lawlessness and crime of the Demo-
cratic party, but Watterson took oil of
the poetry out of It by mentioning q little
circumstance which the good Deacon
had, by some unintentional (7) omission,
left out of his statement Of the case. He
showed that Breathit County had for
years been one of the very few counties
in Kentucky which is overwhelmingly
Republican, and argues from this fact TO
prove the danger of Republican ascen.
dancy. The Deacon has, since this med
ding on the part of Wattenon, had very
little to say about Breathit County, and
his conclusion Is that the number of in-
dictmerts was fabulously oyerestimsted.

Col. Robert III. Douglass, United States
Marshal for North Carolina, has been to
Washington, and reports that Redmond
is entrenchod in the mountains of Swain
County, N. O., with about twenty Eve or
thirty desperate followers, who defy the
MaTshals and are having things very
much their own way. A few days since
q raiding party of Marshals came upon q
portion of this band, and as they we're
modest men, who had no desire to set the
world on fire or to astonish tho natives,
they thought best to forego the pleasure
OF a battle with the moonshiners, in the
place of which, without long consulta-
tion, they decided to indulge as amateurs
in pedestrian contest, in pursuance of
which 1t is said th' journey back to the
village was undoubtedly tho best time
ever made over mountain road. Col.
Douglass, however, does not think it will
be difficult to catch Redmond, Lut sug.
gests that, in order to do so, it will be
necessary for the government 70 raise the
reward to one thousand dollars. He does
not recommend this in order to let his
Deputies make the money, for he very
clearly states by implication that his
men aro not at all avaricious, for if this
large reward is offered, they propose
allowing such of tho mountaineers as
may have their cupidity excited by the
opportunity for gain TO enjoy complete

Douglass makes, and 1t entities him to

The Union Depot.

Representatives of the different railroad lines
centering in st. Paul met at the office of Pres
ident Drake, of the st. Paul & Sioux City road,
yesterday afternoon, to consider the amended
articles of Incorporation of the st. Paul Union
Depot and Transfer company. The amended
articles were found generally satisfactory to the
different parties to the proposed incorporation,
but there being some minor points to arrange,
an adjournment was had to this afternoon, at
which it is expected the articles will be agreed
to and formally signed and the necessary COM
mittee appointed to take the necessary prelimi-
nary steps to carry the project forward to COM
pletion. Atthe meeting yesterday number of
plans We're presented for the proposed union
depot, prepared by architects of the city, and
also of the great union depot at Kansas City,
Mo. 1t was also announced that still other
plans would be presented to-day from Phila-
delphia and other points. Those presented
yesterday, prepared by our architects, were for
imposing structures and of handsome de-
sign, and if adopted, will give St. Paul cne of
the finest if not the finest, passenger depots in
the country. While there are many details yet
to be agreed upon, and much to be done to put
the project in execution, it can be stated that
the companies interested are in earnest, and
that there is scarcely a doubt that st. Paul
will be provided with a magnificent union de-
pot before anOth 2r winter

called to it by previous grand juries, but no
heed has been Maid tO their uroanf ord raitor

called to it by previouSgrand iuries, but no
heed has been paid to their urgent and reiter-
ated recommendations.
Your committee desire to call attention to
grave defect in the arrangements of the Jail in
the lack OF any separate ward or apartment for
female prisoners. 1t is true that during the
day the male prisoners are not allowed
III the corridors of the second story, where the
female prisoners are confined and enter it only
at night to be locked in their cells, but as all
conversation between prisoners can be heard
through the open gratings of the cells, it is
needless to say that for: this and tother reasons
which will naturally suggest themselves
to the Igrand jury, women, perhaps
In some instances innocent and pure women
committed for trial ON some groundless charge,
should not be exposed to needless collision
with vice and obscenity.
Your committee urgently recommend that a
separate apartment be provided for female
prisoners, and trust that if this meets your
approval it will not meet the fate of similar
recommendations by other grand juries, and
be consigned to the oblivion of the pigeon
holes in the clerks Office.
Your committee were strongly impressed
with the insecurity of the Jail. The escape of
prisoners some time since by cutting hole
through the floor Of the corridor and letting
themselves down into the basement and prying
out the rock under the basement windows will
be remembered, and all that has been done to
prevent the repetition of such escapes is to
place lining of gayanized sheet iron under the
floor and to increase the vigilance of the
guards, precautions which your committee
deem insufficient. 1t seems to your committee
that the price Of SO per week paid for the
board of such prisoners is excessive and should
be reduced.
The length of the half dozen sentences of
the report betrays its authorship. Besides,

Which Hurt No One. But DELAYS the Train
OH the Chicago, Milwaukee g. st. Paul
Road Eight OF Ten Hours.
The surprising number of railroad accidents
within the past few days is only equalcd by the
remarkable manner in which those whose lives
have been jeopardized have escaped from i'm
pending ard seemingly inevitable danger. The
latest incident of miraculous escape from this
species of calamity occurred night before last
on the Eastern division of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul railroad.
The passenger train which left Chicago at
9o'clock on Wednesday evening, had proceeded
without accident to point called Western
Union Junction. situated on the above name
road. about twenty-five miles east of Milwau-
kee, when the passengers were startled from
sleep by what at first seemed to be the shock
Of terrific explosion.
The clatter of portable furniture, wild
movements of the dazed and suddenly awaken
ed passengers, together with the apparent con-
fusion without, occasioned for time the most
indescribable CONSERVATION.
The scene without presented the closest re-
semblance to frst-class smash-up. The loco
motive had came in direct contact with freight
car and was almost smashed to atoms while
the freight car had combusted and was blazing
fercely.
1t was first learned that no serious injuries
had been sustained by the passengers,
after which investigations were made
concerning the cause Of the accident.
1t was ascertained that number of freight
cars were being switched within short dis
tance of where the accident took place, and
the rear car becoming uncoupled, started at a
rapid pace down the switch track until the
main track was reached where it collided with
the locomotive of the passenger train as before
stated.
The engineer of the passenger train did not
observe the obstacle until the two trains were
within few feet of each other, when the air
brakes were applied, thereby averting a greater
shock than really took place.
The only personal injuries reported were a
few slight bruises sustained by the fireman in
jumping from the engine, the engineer escap-
ing unharmed: The accident occurred at II 80
o'clock on Wednesday evening, the train being
delayed nearly ten hours, arriving in this city
last evening shortly after II o'clock, the sched-
ule time for it's arrival being 2:45 o'clock in the
afternoon. The above information was OBJ
tanned from a well-known gentleman of this
city, who was on the train at the time of the
accident, and may be considered as thoroughly
reliable.

MILWAUKEE, Jan. 2S.-While a freight train
on the Milwaukee & st. Paul railway was
switching at Racine Junction last night, a
brake chain on a loaded car broke. In order
to prevent a run-oH the switchman turned the
switch and let the car on the main track. The
car started south at great speed, and mile and
half south of here ran into passenger train
No. from Chicago, breaking a pair Of trucks
on the engine and inficting other slight dam
age. The freight car was broken to pieces and
its contents set on fire. None of the passenger
cars or occupants were injured. The fireman

II DISASTROUS Blaze.

| The Irvine Mill Upper Third Street
Partially Destroyed--Loss from Five to
| Eight Thousand Dollars.
| The alarm of fire from box Z, at $40 o'clock
yesterday morning, was occasioned by the
appearance of flames on the lower floor of the
four-story stone building, located on the cor
ner of Third and Franklin streets. Thither
the fire department responded with alacrity.
1t became apparent on reaching the building
that the energies of the department would
have no insignificant foe to combat as the
lurid fend had already enveloped the lower
| portion OF the immense structure. The pecu-
lar situation OF the building made the task of
successfully and speedily conquering the
flames a matter of hazardous difficulty.
Situated on the bluff side of the street the two
lower stories were almost submerged from
view, the third story of the building resting on
line with the sidewalk The inhamable char
acter Of the material was also an important
drawback, the building having been used as
Hour mill for the past few years, the surround
| ing wood work being almost as dry and ignit-
able as powder.
| Upon arriving at the scene of the confagra-
tlon the department. went earnestly to work
and after siege of two hours succeeded in
successfully mastering the flames, which at one
| time bid fair to consume the entire building.
The origin of the fire is involved in consider
able mystery, the most plausible theory being
! that it was caused by the spontaneous combus-
| ton OF pile of corn-cobs, which lay in q
heated condition near large corn shelter.
Another theory is that spark from the engine
(sltuated on the lower floor where the fire origi-
| nated) alighted on the corn-cobs, thereby caus.
ing the conhagration. The employees of the
mill quit work at 10 o'clock on the evening
preceding, at which time there was nothing
visible that would indicate the presence of fire.
The serious damage was almost wholly confined
to the first and second stories, the effect in this
part OF the building being quite disastrous. The
damage to the third and fourth stories is mere
ly nominal, being confined to bolts, betting,
etc.
The building was constructed about ten wears
ago at cost of $4,000 or $4,000, and is
owned by Mrs. Irvine, the widow of the late
John Il. Irvine. The present lessee of the
building, Mr.. D. o. Goulett, ran Touring
mill on the premises, his loss being altogether
on stock and machinery.
The total loss is variously estimated at from
$5,0OO to $8, ,OOC insured as follows: Total in
surance on building, $4,000, divided equally
between the North British and Mercantile In
surance company, of England, and the Hart
ford Insurance company. of Hartford, Conn.
The total insurance on stock and machinery
amounts to $1,000, distributed as follows:
British America Insurance company, $500:
Newark Fire Insurance company, of Newark
N. j., 5000 on machinery and $40O on stock.
