The mystery is solved at last. In the horse
stealing affair at Hudson, a few nights ago. it
seems that the owner of the horses hired the

nave the animals safely carried away.

The column of the doubtful Stetes' is
increasing. The Republicans not only rank
New York, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey, Connecticut, California,
Oregon, Nevada and Wisconsin as dou btfui,
but they are beginning to manifest fears for
Vermont. This latter State has an election
September 7th, and men, money and docu.
ments are being poured in without stint to
save the Republican ticket on that occasion.
The officeholders are nearly as panic stricken

DUNNEIn says he will stick and Ward says
he will stick, whereupon Jim Baker and the
Pioneer Press evolve the brilliant scheme of
a mass Republican convention in the First
district to put up third candidate. This
plan is one which the GLOBE most heartily
commends. The only thing which we can
think of which would be preferable would be
ia have four Republican candidates in the
field. All of the elements of the party ought
to be represented by candidate.

FREIGHT Collision In Wisconsin,


Near Roberts station in st. Croix county,
Wis, and about twelve miles east of Hudson,
a freight train of ffty-fve loaded cars, in two
sections, was coming west yesterday morning
when serious collision occurred, happily
unattended with loss of life.
The first section had passed
over one heavy grade and was stalled on the
second. The conductor, after making the sec
ond attempt and again failing to mount the
hill, sent back fsgman to signal the second
section. Then he made another unavaihng at
tempt to go ahead and repeated it until, on
consulting bis watch, he found it was near
time for him to get ont of the
way of the morning express coming west
He then backed down to get the advantage Of
start on the preceding down grade and paased
by his fagman. Just then the second
section came down the first grade at full speed
and plunged int the backing train. The loco
motive of the second section was considerably
damaged, sixteen lumber cars were badly
wrecked and piled upon each other, and sever
al cars of merchandise were partly wrecked.
Fortunately and singularly enough not one of
the men on either train was seriously hurt.
At noon it was reported that the track would
be cleared by o'clock, but as most of the COM
pany's cars are at Chicago at this time aud the
regular train was on the other side of the
break, the day express of yes
terday was suspended. superintendent
Winter, who was at Hudson, went to the scene
of the accident early in the day and personally
directed the operations of clearing the track.
The regular order of trains will be resumed
this morning.

Marriage Of a Murderer.

A marriage under very peculiar cir
cumstances has been solemniZed here.
One of the contracting parties, John ID.
Poindexter, YVES convicted some time
since of killing G.. c. Curtis, clerk in
shoe store, last March, for an alleged
insult offered TO Miss Isabella Cottrell,
the other party to the ceremony. As
both the slayer and slain were promi-
nentiy connected here, the affair created
Il great deal of interest, and the friends
of Poindexter made every possible effort
to secure his acquittal, but without avail.
He was convicted and sentenced to two
years in the State-prison. The case was
carried to the Supreme Court of the
State, but without relief for the prisoner.
The Executive was next appealed to for
Communication to imprisonment in Jail,
but without success. The Court has
withheld papers committing Poindexter
to a felon's cell for several days, in
order, it was understood, to allow the
marriage. Last evening the prisoner
was remov ed from jail, in the custody
of an officer, and carried to the resi-
dence of the bride in the suburbs of the
city, where the marriage took place. 1t
was witnessed by a few friends of the
contracting parties. The bride, who
