FATAL CASUALTY.
A Frightened Team Runs Away and Kill
Their Driver.


About IL 80 o'clock A. M. yesterday Fort
street was the scene of a runaway which re-
suited in death to George Crueson, the driver
of the team. At the time stated he was pro-
eeeding from the corner of Fifth and Seventh
streets, where he had formerly lived, to his
new place of residence, No. 102 Forbes street.
His wagon was loaded with stove, and some
other light furniture, being the third load he
had transported during the day. As the horses
passed Seven Corners a small keg rolled off
the wagon and fell under the feet of the
horses, frightening them. and they at once
started on a dead run. Crueson was unable to
manage them at all. Near the corner
wagon was almost upset and Crueson
was thrown violently to the ground. The
wagon righted itself, and two wheels passed
over Cruesen just about the middle; at the
same time he was struck in the head and badly
cut by one of the horses feet. Several wit
messed the accident and rushed to Cruesen's as
sistance. He was found to be unconscious, and
was conveyed into the st. Paul house. Drs.
Stamm and Mattocks were called to attend him.
At first it was supposed that his njuries would
not prove fatal, but he steadily became worse,
and at o'clock died of internal rupture, the
wheels of the wagon, heavy stone one, having
passed directly across his bowels.
Deceased is Canadian French
man by birth, about 43 years old. He
leaves wife, no children, in comfortable cir
cumstances, he having been an industrious and
provident man. He had been resident of this
city for nine years, seven of which he was en-
ployed at Berkey's livery stables. About a
year ago he purchased the team, which proved
his death yesterday, and has been in the habit
of draying in this city during the winter
months, while in the summer he worked a farm
which he owned near Carver.
His wife was at his side when he died, and
having recovered consciousness he was favored
with religious consolation before he expired.
After Crueson was thrown out the team kept up
the run. At the corner of Fort and Chestnut
the wagon was brought into collision with a
thirty feet telegraph pole, and brokeit off level
with the ground, and in falling it was again
shattered into two pieces. The thoroughly
frightened horses kept up the run until near
Chief r. o. Strong residence on Fort street.
Here one horse got loose and ran on to Sherman
street, while the other was captured in front of
Chief Strong's. One of the horses was found to
be badly injured, and the wagon is a wreck.
The coroner having been notified of the fatal
accident, will hold an inquest to-day, after
which arrangements will be made for the fu-
neral.
Later in the day the coroner, after investi-
eating the circumstances, decided that as the
accident came under the head of casualties no
inquest would be necessary

TIE DEPUTY MARsHA1s BILL.


The Senate has finally, after heated dis
cussion, passed the immediate deficiency
bill providing for the payment of United
States marshals and their deputies, and for
the manner in which they shall be ap-
pointed in the future. The few amend
ments that were made were of little conse-
quence, and will no doubt be ooncurred in
by the House and the bill will Immediately
go to Mr.. Hayes for his approval. Whether
he will approve or disapprove OF it, how
ever, is matter of some doubt, with the
chances somewhat in favor of veto. The
Republicans in both houses of Congress
have unitedly opposed the bill from first to
last, and a pressure will no doubt be
brought to bear upon Mr.. Hayes to in
duce him to send it back with his objections.
This pressure is likely to prove effectual
with as weak and partisan an official as he
has shown himself to be.
The objections of the Republicans to this
measure are not well grounded. 1t is OPP
posed simply for the reason that it provides
for the selection of part of the deputy
marshals from the Democratic party. The
principal objection to the law authorizing
the appointment of these officials was the
fact that all were selected from one party
and by that means the party was enabled to
exercise an undue influence upon the voters
at the polls. A system of intimidation has
been practiced that has often resulted in
defeating the viii of the people by deterring
qualified electors from exercising their
privileges. In New York city especially, under
the supervision of John 1. Davenport, has
this species of bulldoEing been carried on,
and at every general election held since the
passage of the act thousands of voters have
been driven from the polls by threats of
arrest and prosecution, and the votes of
thousands of others have been lost by their
actual arrest on one pretense or another. In
other large cities the same thing has oc-
Cured though on a more limited scale. The
system itself is an implement of despoSsm
that has no business to exist on this CONT
nent. Congress sought to repeal it at the
extra session, but failed because of the in
reference of Mr.. Hayes. That body now
seeks to do the next best thing to repeating
il by divesting the officials of their partisan
character-by giving to the majority party
of the country representation among the
officials who are to supervise the conduct of

Mr. Haz.eton objected to the resolution. The COM

of depression and had found nothing but prosperity
The whole thing was played out, and Congress had
better appropriate the money which the printing
would cost to missionary fund or some charitable
purpose.

one, and might as well be printed.

the amendment directing that the superintendent of

pie, industries and resources of the district of

Mr.. Aldrich, R. l., opposed striking out the second
section of the Senate BILL but the amendments were
adopted and the bill passed.
The House then went into committee Of the whole,
Mr.. Scales in the chair the star service deficiency
BILL and Mr.. Epson concluded his speech in favor OF
maintaining the present efficiency of the star SER
vice.
Mr.. Reagan said the question was whether the star
service should be conducted in the interest of fav-
ored class Of contractors who lived at Washington
and who had never seen the routes for which they
had obtained the contract in the interest of honest
administration and good government. The issue
was whether the government was to be in the in
terest of the people, for the purpose Of enrichng
number of petty contractors by system which, il
not fraudulent, bore all the badges of fraud on its
face.
Mr.. Haskell asserted that no gentleman who had
talked 80 much about fraud had been able to show
from the evidence that too much compensation was
being paid for the service on any route.
The committee then rose, Mr.. Blackburn stating
that if it the desire of the House he was willing
the vote should be taken tomorrow. Adjourned.
