EriEhtfuI Accident.

Sioux City, Jap. 8.--A shocking accident
occurred to-day, on the line of the Sioux CITY
and Omaha division of the Chicago,
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad,
by which six men were killed outright
and seventh person lost leg. The
men were engaged in cut north of Bancroft
shoveling snow. The working train, sntci-
psting the coming of the south. bound train,
had side tracked, and the men, eleven in ali,
had stepped from the track to allow the
passenger train to pass. Some trouble in
getting through had been experienced the
day before, and as the engineer approached
the cut, which is long one and on curve,
he put on steam and rushed in. The train con-
sisted of n locomotive and tender, two box
cars and one passenger car, and the train
with the exception of the latter car passed
the men in safety, but the steps of the pas
senger coach caught them and moved them
down like grass under the wheels, only four
csc ping without serious injury. The names
Of the killed are as follows: Charles Mey-
ers, Thomas Braughman, A. p. Swanson, j.
A. Herman, Oney Anderson and John Err
ric son. The name of the wounded man is
John A. Delan. The men all lived at Oak
land, Nebraska, to which point their bodies

Hanged in Prison.

Phiadephis, Jan. S.-Daniel Il. Sullivan
and Patrick Hayes we're hanged in Moyamen-
sing prison at 1857 this morning. Hayes
killed his wife on the morning of March 2Sd
last and then attempted to kill himself. Spl-
liVan killed woman with whom he had lived
and who had separated from him in Oil CITY.
Pa Sullivan was manager for a minstrel
TToupe' both men passed a sleepless night.
Inc priests arrived at the prison early, and re-
hgieus exercises continued until the time for
execution. At 1925 Sullivan was brought
down from his cell on the upper tier to the
deor Of Hayes cell on the ground floor, and
immediately afLerward a procession formed
ana proceeded to the gallows, near the end
ef the same corridor. Both walked firmly,
hayes being accompanied by the Rev.
Fathers Daley and Masters, and Sui
lvan following, accompanied BY the Rev.
rather htul. On the scafold both men knelt
and prayed, the priests kneeling between
them, and when they arose Hayes laid aside
the beads upon which he had been telling his
prayers and attompted to address those
present, speaking in wild and incoherent
manner. Two of the priests reasoned with
him and endeavsred to persuade him not TO
speak, but he continued in spite of remon-
strances to talk in rambling way. Hs
seemed anxious to narrate the history of his
married life, but at last yielded, as no said
himself, TO the request of his pastor, at the
same time protesting that he was not afraid
OF the gallows. Meanwhile Sulli-
van stood calmly kissing his cruel
fix and listening to tho exhorta-
!ions of the priest, and finally expressed a
hope for forgiveness, forgiving all himself.
The priests retired to the step Of the gallows,
where they knelt, The nooses were adjusted,
aud At Obs, while the priests were reciting
the "Deproiundis," the drop fell. Both bod
les received fall of four feet. Hayes ap.
peared to die without struggle, and in two
minutes and hNlf the beating OF his pulse
could not be felt, Sullivan struggled vio-
lently, and it was seventeen minutes before
the physician pronounced him dead. After
hanging twenty-seven minutes tho bodies
were cut down, when It was ascertsined both
died from straDgulation.

q ". wal,aoe's Plan TO Maintain Or
der in New Mexico.

Washington, Jan, S-Governor Wallace,
of New Mexico, left this city for New York
tonight. Ho intends to return in day or
two for the purpose Of securing the adoption
of measures by congress by which life and
property in the territory may be better pre-
tected. He says that outlswry has become
nonotonously common there, and that il can
be checked If congress will consent
to modify the posse comitatus clause
of the army bill so that it
shall apply only to states. He
believes there will be no difficulty in this
because national elections are not held in
territories except for delegates to congress,
and the clause is intended to apply only to
places wherein national elections are held. In
explaining why portions of the territory were
unsafe now, Governor Wallace said: The
southern portion of New Mexico and North
ern Old Mexico are infested by bands of
thieves, robbers and murderers, many OF
whom are wanted east to answer for crimes
committed there. They think no more of
killing man than of shooting game. They
rob the miners of their horses, mules and
other property. They rob any body they can
get their hands on. If man resis.s they
kill him. The property and life of no one Is
safe from them. When deputy marshal
armed with authority and backed by his
posse,g gets after them they go over into Old
Mexico and laugh at their puriuers,
WHO cannot stay there watching
them and neglecting their own business. As
soon as they retire the outlaws come back
into New Mexico and 60 to robbiug and kill
ing again. II was authorized 10 call on
the military and send the troops after them
they would soon be broken up. The troops
could not only pursue them more efsclually
than citizens, but could wait, and the dep.
uty marshal could bo with them with his
warrants. think by these means that
could break up the outlawry on the border
altogether. also think that | can present
the case to congress in such light that the
posse comitatus clause will be modified as
regards New Mexico" General Wallace
also thinks that with the aid of the military
he could quickly put an end to the difficult
ties that baye become common between the
Mexican and American settlers in the terri
tOry.
