PEEPHAPs FATAL Last even
ing at about o'clock Willie Bateman,
aged years, son Of William ]. Bate
man, and George Duck, who is about
Q years of age, were playing together
in the street with small Fourth of July
blank, cartridge pistol. when Willie started to
run away aud George ran after him and shot
him in the back. The load went through his
two garments and entered the lower part Of
the shoulder in the direction of the left lung
aud the physician called last evening was un-
able to tell how serious it might prove, but it
may terminate fatally. George was arrested
by officer Ferral, and afterwards admitted to
hail in the sum OF $500 until this morning.
This is an example Of the danger of firearms
in the hands OF children, even OF such as are
only intended for blank cartridges. as shot,
pebbles, etc, are put into them by the
youngsters on top Of the blank cartridges,
which gives them all the dangerous qualities
Of ths regular ball-cartIidge.

A LETTER TO HANCOCK.

New YORK, Oct. 16.-Following is
ex-Governornor Randolph's letter to
Gen. Hancock, on the tariff gues
ton:
MoRR1sTowN, Oct. 18th, 1880-My
Dear General: My attention is called
to-day to an interview, or reported
interview, had with you by person
representing the aterson Guardian
of this state. AS I read the report,
it seems to me you were very imper-
fectly understood, or very indiffer-
entity reported. I come to this con-
clusion because of my knowledge OF
your views upon the tariff question.
The report does you injustice. The
subject is one which our. manufac-
turing friends are very solicitous
about and very properly so. I
regret that your views upon the
tariff question, as I understand them
to chad not found fuller expression
in your letter of acceptance. If mis-,
representations of your tariff views
continues, would it not be wise anG
just to take some occasion to put
yourself right.
Very truly yours,
[Signedl THEo. f. RANDOLPH.

EPISCOPAL CONVENTION.

New YORK, Oct. 15.-In the house
of deputies of the P. E. convention
to-day, the committee ON constitu-
tional amendments reported on res
olution previously offered proposing
to change the period of meeting of
the convention from three to five
years. The report was adopted and
the committee discharged. The com
mittee on prayer books having con-
sidered memorial on revision of the
book of families referred to them re-
ported adversely to the petition and
were discharged. Rev. DR.. Buel, of
North Carolina, called up the resolu-
ton which originated at previous
convention calling for insertion in lit
erary after supplication to illuminate
all bishops, prests and deacons, ETC.,
and the response thereto, and the
supplication ''that it may please Thee,
o, Lord of the harvest, to send forth
laborers into Thy harvest" and the
response 1--WE beseech Thee to hear
us, good Lord" DIR. Bud made a
long speech in favor of the adoption
of the resolution and the subject
was then referred to the committee
on prayer books. The committee on
canons reported adversely to the
memorial presented by the delegation
from Alabama, petit oning that the
canon be amended so as to establish
an appellate court, to which may be
appealed the cases of clergymen who
have been tried by the diocese court.
A resolution declaring such addi-
ton to the canons inexpedient was
adopted. The Doctor Franklin resolu-
tion of Wednesday last, relating to
the canon forbidding the marriage
of divorced persons, which was refer
red to the committee on canons, was
reported back adversely and the re-
port adopted by large majority.
At the afternoon session, Rev. DR..
McCrady, of South Carolina, offered
resolution that the third supplica-
ton in the litany be changed to
read: 80 God the Holy Ghost, the
Comforter, have mercy upon u.s. also
the words after the Holy Ghost,
proceeding from the Father and
the Son." in the present reading, be
stricken out, and that the fourth
supplication be made to read: &c
holy, blessed and glorious Lord God
Almighty have mercy upon u.s." The
words, 'Trinity of three persons
and one God to be stricken out
Referred to the committee or
canons.
A motion was adopted that the
convention adjourn sine die on th'
23rd inst.

TERRIBLE EXPLOSION.
Ten Men aud ONE Woman Killed
Outright, and several Others
Wouuu. d.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 16.-A terrible
explosion occurred, last evening, at
the Garden City distillery company
works. An experiment was beng
tried of a new steaming process.
The corn was put whole into a
mammoth kettle, sixteen feet high,
and steamed. Then strong pres
sure of steam was applied to force it
through the pipes into the mash-tub.
The pipe became choked up, stop
ping the swollen corn, and instantly
increasing the pressure in the ket
tie. A terrific explosion followed,
blowing the roof of the building
clear off, and killing outright, or
burying beneath the fallen timbers,
scalding corn and debris, ten men
and one woman, who happened to
be in that part of the distillery,
were killed outright. Three bodies
were recovered, and four are still
buried in the ruins. Geo. Schaffer
has been taken out fatally injured
about the head, and three others are
badly injured.

THE INDIANS.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-Secretary
Schurz to-day received a telegram
from Governor Pitkin, saying that
great excitement prevails in western
Colorado over the killing of Ute
and the subsequent murder of young
jackson by the Indians, After
detailing the circumstances of
the affair Pitkin says the Utes
are lawlessly inclined since
Ourays death, and if the general
government does not protect the
citizens the state will. He urges a
moderate removal of the Uncom-
pahgres to the mouth of Uncom-
pahgres river or some other point
where they viii be remote from the
whites and from the roads over
which food for the whites to subsist
upon has to pass. If this be done it
would allay the excitement in a
measure. -
