a Trnin collision.

There was an accident on the q. P.
road about four miles east of Elkhorn.
While freight train was crossing the
Pawnee bridge coupling broke, and
several cars and an emigrant coach,
used rs a caboose, were left behind.
This happening on the down grade, the
brakes were set and the detached cars
were stopped as soon rs possible. The
second section of the train, which was
but short distance behind, came
around curve just as the detached
cars came to a stand still, and before it
could be tagged. Tile result was COL
lision. The engine ran into the coach,
smashing it completely and running the
engine. The engineer, Tim O'Donnell,
had reversed his engine, and fireman
Billy Madden ran back and set the
brakes as fast as he could, until see-
ing that collision was inevitable, he
jumped off, spraining his ankle. The
engine was badly damaged and car of
hogs burst open, while II number of cars
following were telescoped. Engineer
O'Donnell WAS hurt, but not danger

The Road to Guuymas.

AT last all negotiations are ended,
the money raised, concessions granted,
and the new line of the Atchison, Tope-
ka and Santa Fe from the Rio Grande
to Guaymas, on the coast of Mexico,
put under contract from both ends.
The first section of thirty miles from
Guaymas eastward is, or soon will be,
in the hands of cloud of graders.
This is but the beginning, the initiatory
step in this vast undertaking. The
same parties who have the first thirty
miles will probably complete the grade
to the north line of the state of Sonora,
where it will be connected with the line
pushing forward from Albuquerque.
The Mexican government has given the
company immensely valuable conces-
sions-for example, a grant of twenty
two thousand acres of land per mile of
constructed road, or, in lieu thereof,
eight thousand dollars cash per mile;
exempts the railroad property, includ-
ing stocks and bonds, from all taxation,
tion material, rolling stock, ETC., free
of duty. OF course 1t is the intention
of the company to build up large local
traffic along the line by settlement and
by the encouragement of local industry
in every compatible form. At Quay
mas they have one of the finest harbors
in the world. The building of the rail-
road will eventuate, at an early day, in
the establishment of steamship lines to
Australia and other distant ports,
which can be reached in much less time
than from any other port on this conti-
nent. In few years, therefore, after
the connection is made great revolu-
tion in commerce will be effected, and
a rival to San Francisco built up on the
coast of Mexico. The Boston capital
lists controlling this enterprise have
raised all the money necessary to COM
plete it.-Denrer Times.

sugar Raising In Illinois.

Washington. Nov. 24.-Dr. Collyer,
chemist of the agricultural depart
ment, says the state of Illinois can easi-
ly raise all the sugar this country can
consume. The corn crop of Illinois,
said Collyer, is worth about S75, 900, 900
annually. If they will devote one-tenth
of the acreage to sorghum of the yarie-
ty best suited to that latitude, they
can raise sugar in amount equal to our
whole annual Importation, which is
about S109, 100000 worth, and even
this will only equal so per cent. of the
most favorable Of my experiments. The
secret, now that the method of crystali-
yzation is understood, lies simply in the
time to gather the CROP Sugar can be
raised for three cents per pound, and
raw sugar costs now over six.

FATAL FAMILY ny FEuD.: lsl
Two Brothers Butchrred In Cold
Blood.

Virginia. Kane Co., H., Nov. "a
One of the most unproyoked and cold
b]ooded murders ever chronicled was
committed on Saturday at farm some
ten miles north of this place. The vic.
Tins, two Germans, brothers,
named Eichenand, were husking corn,
when John and Robert Taylor, also
brothers, came along on horseback, dis
mounted, and saying they were now 60
ing to settle a feud which had existed
between the families, Immediately be-
gan stabb.ng one of the brothers, who
fell with knife thrust through the
lung. They then turned upon the
other one, who, being unarmed, at
tempted to escape. They caught him
and plunging knife through his neck
severed the jugular vein. One of the
brothers died soon after, and the other
WIS dying last night. The murderers
escaped and officers are in pursuit.

The war IN sonth AmerIca.

New York, Nov. PA Lima letter
says at last the long heralded descent
Of the Chilians on the Peruvian coast
has been attempted, and made ON Sun
day morning, the 22d instant Sixteen
of the enemies vessels, transports and
men-of-war appeared off Pisagua, and
without loss of time, directed their
course towards the shore. Pisagua
was defended by detachment of 90C
Bolivian troops, under the chief COM
mand Of Col. Gramer, but it appears
that Gen. Buendia was in charge of
the defences, and the army of Tara
pacia was likewise in the place at the
time. Two parrot rifles, one hundred
Founders, were mounted on the bluff
overlooking the town, butit is asserted,
were without adequate shelter.
The fight was heavy and the loss Of
life great. The shore batteries made a
gallant resistance, but Fisagua was
captured, and Buendia retired towards
San Bernardo, short two leagues from
the scene of the battle. The battle on
land must soon take place.
kilograms Just received announce
that Buendia has fallen back to Penna
Grande on the thirty-four mile stretch
between the inland terminus of Pisagua
and Iquique railroad, and had been
Joined by his reinforcements, making
in all about 1900 men.
The Gillian advance was at Santa
Catalina, on the railroad, and still go.
ing forward towards Buendia's posi-.
tions. Prodo and Daza, or their col
umns, must also be advancing towards
the province of Tara Pasaca from Iraca
and Tacna, directly in the rear of the
Chilians. The number of the latter is
variously estimated at probably 0,0C0
to 900 soldiers. Fears are enter
tained of the destruction of Iquiqua
by the united Chilian naval force. The
The town is only guarded by the ma
tional guards, as all of the regulars
have gone to Buendia's support.
Lima has been declared under mar
tial law. All the citizens capable of
bearing arms must enroll themselves
in the line Of the national guard regi-
mehts, but the attacking force of the
Chilians on the Tara Paca seems to
secure the safety Of Lima from any
similar assault. 1t is not probable that
the enemy is strong enough to attempt
two such attempts, and It is evident
that the main object of Chilli is the
nitrate districts of Tara Paca, and pos
sibly later on her attention may be
turned towards the guano deposits in
the same latitude.

Don't Expect It-Ouray Less
Hopcful-The Present
State OF A fairs

Washington, Nov. s4.-Prominent
army officers in this city are by no
means sanguine of the attainment of
success by the Ute commission in its
efforts to procure the designation or
surrender by the White river Utes of
the murderers of Agent Meeker and
the instigators of the assault upon
Thornburgh's command. On the con-
trary, the belief is generally expressed
in army circles that the Indians have
been and are still simply trying to gain
time in hopes that military operations
against them will be prevented by win
ter weather, and that the guilty men,
bers Of the tribe may scatter before the
spring season Of the year opens, SO as
to elude either detection or punish
ment. Gen. Sherman said yesterday
that he hoped for the best, but there
was no telling what would take place.
he had given orders, he said, to leave
no means untried to make our soldiers
at present In camp In the Ute country
as comfortable as possible, and had di-
rected that shelter, clothing and the
hest of food that could be procured
should be furnished them. In the event
Of the interior department failing in its
present efforts to obtain possession of
the murderers, the army would be on
the spot and make short work of them
In the spring, or sooner, If necessary.
He believes the winter will so reduce
the condition Of their ponies as to make
1t impossible for them to escape.
Denver, Nov. 23.-Dispatches from

Indian, testified, but knew nothing.
Ouray told the commission that John

ser. He told his brother just before he !
died that he was responsible for the'en-
tire outbreak and Ute massacre. and
that he shot the mail carrier and team
sters. Ouray seems disappointed at |
