CRUSHED.
A Falling Bank Kills One Man and Sc
ridIklv Iniures Two OtherS,

A serious accident happened about 10
O'Clock yesterday morning in an excavation
being made by Slmar & Morton, contractors
for the Lafayette street fill leading to the
bridge to be built over the railroad tracks,
by which one man was killed ,another quite SER
iously injured, and still another slightly
bruised.
The excavation where the accident occurred
is on North street, near De Soto street. The
cut is about eight feet deep. At the time the
accident occurred, four men were engaged in
loosening and shoveling out the dirt from un-
derneath the frozen surface, while another
man was at work driving wedges to break of
a block of the frozen earth, about four feet
long and the same distance in width. While
thus working the block Of frozen earth sud
denly and unexpectedly gave way, and in Its
fall into the excavation, caught and
crushed to death man named John Cooney,
who stood in a STOPPING position, in the act
of lifting shovel of dirt, struck another man
named August Brown, knocking him down
and fracturing his hip, while fragment fell
upon and severely bruised the right foot of
another man named s. Dich.
The block of earth which fell upon Cooney
must have weighed nearly or quite thousand
pounds. It struck him on the back of the
QcaQ dQu SuOuutCIbs duQ PlAkOuOW AiAAA w oAS
earth, as if in vice.
The first efforts of the other men in the
mine were directed to the relief of Cooney, but
upon rolling away the block of earth, it was
found that life was extinct, he having
evidently been instantly killed.
As soon as possible convey ances were Sc
cured and Coont y's remains conveyed to the res
idence of his parents in the Sixth ward, while
Brown was taken to st. Joseph's hospital,
where his injuries were attended to by DIR.
Davenport.
Cooney was an unmarried man of about %
years of age, the principal support of an aged
father and mother and younger brother, the
family being part of the Come
mara immigration arriving in st. Paul
some two years ago. Unlike many of that
party Cooney is representatives, temperate and
hard working man, his employers, Simar q
Morton, and neighbors of the family, all
speaking of him in the highest terms. The
scene when the remains were brought into the
presence of the aged father and mother, are
described as particularly heart rendering.
: Messrs. Simar & Morton did not hear any
thing of the accident until in the afternoon
when they promptly arranged with Nc
Carthy d Donnelly, for the interment OF
Cooney, and also for the care of Brown during
his convalescence. The injuries to Dick was
confined to the bruising of his right foot,
which it is thought will not incapaciate him
from work for more than a day or two.
Coeney will be inferred at 2o'clock this after
noon.
Accompanied by GLOBE reporter, Coroner
Davenport visited the scene of the accident at
o'clock Yesterday afternoon, and after in
specting the work, and listening to the state
ments of D. O'Toole, foreman of the work
and others at work on the excavation, decided
that an inquest was unnecessary,

srAIWaaTs TO THIS FRONT.

The elevation of Keifer, of Ohio, to
the speakership of the Forty seventh con-
gress, is an incident which challenges
public attention to the present time.
That the speakership would 60 to some
prominent advocate of protection, seems
to have been very generally conceded
long before Congress met. Under ordinary
circumstances, the honor would easily
and certainly have fallen on Hiscock, of
New York, or Kelly, of Pennsylvania. In
fact there IS every reason to believe that
the understanding in Republican circles
was, up to within few days of the eau
Gus, that the former would be the Repub-
lican candidate, and in case he should
from any cause fail to unite the protec-
tien and conservative (half- f-breed) ele-
ments of the party, then Kelley, of
Pennsylvania, would be pushed for the
position.
The New York protectionists had little
trouble in rallying the great body of the
tariff men to his standard, but, when he
undertook to unite the conservative or
breed elements of his party, he found,
aside from the candidacy of Kasson, that
the Spartan band of three hundred
and six, like the ghost of Banquo. would
not down at his bidding. At this juno
ture Hiscock found that the neutrality of
the executive was being more than bal
anced by the intrigues of the active and
stalwart clan Cameron in the interest
of protectionist to whose garments the
odor of the transom-light and STEP ladder
transaction did not cling. In the coming
of Keifer there are also those who are Sc
uncharitable as to imagine that they can
discover the fine Italian hand of Foster as
well as the Cameron influence which the
neutrality" of the executive developed.
A careful survey of the field develops
the fact that, in the conflict, the protect
tionists lost nothing, the conservatives or
half breeds, everything, and that the old
leaders of the old Grant regime are in un-
disputed possession Of the field, while
Blaine'seyes are draped in mourning. The
fact that Mr.. Kelley's candidacy was ig-
nored in the formation of the combina-
tion which made Keifer's success possible
and the conspicuous absence of repre-
sentave Pennsylvania stalwarts from the
cabinet, are incidents to which half-breed
statesmen with aspiration, cannot
attach too much Importance.
In the distribution of the committees,
Kelley will doubtless be given the posi-
ton he wants, without further compli-
eating the present situation; but when it
comes to giving Pennsylvania representa-
ton in the cabinet, the influence of the
stalwart chief of that State will doubt
less he weighed with some Difference for
the feelings of the fifty thousand Repub-
ican voters who gave notice at the last
election that Cameronism and Grantism
have had their day in the Keystone State.
The situation, from q Republican
standpoint, is by no means all that might
be desired. But while Executive patron
age and the independent and disinterested
efforts of Senator Davis fail to accom-
plish in pacifying the discordant elements,
Senator Malone will doubtless be fully
sustained in repudiating.
