Four Young Persons Killed and Man.

ANoKA, Mimi, Aug. 10.
A terrible accident occurred at this place
tonight When the north bound passenger
train on the Manitoba road arrived at the
depot at 1890 O'Clock, the engineer reported
that it had struck something heavy on
crossing about half a mile below town.
party going back to investigate found that
the object struck was a carriage. The horse
was found dead with the fragments of the
buggy some ten rods beyond the crossing,
and between that place and the crossing the
bodies of four persons were found horribly
mangled. The remains were taken to the
depot and finally identified as William Hack
EFT, Jasper Cole, Miss Florence Parker and
Miss Lillian Dawson. They were crushed
and bruised so that Identification was diff
cult. When found Cole alone was breath
ing, the others being killed instantly, and he
died soon after. The girls were apparently
about II years of age, and the men % or %.
They had attended a dance at Crooked Lake,
about three miles to Anoka, in the evening,
and were returning when the accident hap
penej. Just how it occurred is not known,
but it is supposed to have been due to the
drivers carelessness. The road is on the
open prairie at the crossing, and runs along
for some distance nearly parallel to the
track. 1t is supposed that they attempted to
cross ahead of the train, which runs very
rapidly at this point, and miscaculated the
distance, or were stopped on the track by
balky horse.

FROM WASHINGTON.
YELLOW JACK.
AID Asked rom Texas much Suffering
at Brownsville.

WASHINGTON. Aug 10.
A telegraph from Gov. Roberts, of Texas,
was today received at the treasury depart
ment, stating the suffering condition
of those sick with yellow fever, and
1000 persons in Brownsville, Tex, out of en-
ployment on account of the quarantine, and
requesting aid. Acting secretary French re-
piled that the department would take charge
Of no = las and suitable stations if the Gov
ernor desired it. IN, that the State of Texas
must support AL persons not in hospital. If
the Governor accedes to this view, the sur
geon-general Of the marine hospital service
will at once muster into the service and pay
the guards at proper points, to prevent egress
at Brownsville, and will, through one of his
surgeons, take charge OF all hospital arrange
ments. Sur-Gen. Hamilton mas already
made arrangements by which hospital tents
have been sent to Memphis, Tenn, and in
structions have been given TO surgeon of
the service there to proceed at once, on re-
ceiving orders, to Brownsville, and take
charge of yellow fever patients.

ADMIRAL NICHOLSON.
He Denies Statements Regarding his
Conduct at Alexandria.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.
Rear Admiral Nicholson. commanding the
European station, has written private let
ter to a prominent officer of the navy depart
ment, late of Vile Franche, Aug 3, in which
he takes occasion to deny a statement that
when the bOmbardment of Alexandria began
he notified the Egyptians that if they fired
on any of his vessels he would return the fire.
Tie also denied the statement that after the
action he steamed around the English fleet
and cheered the vessels upon their work. In
reference to the statement that he landed
marines to assist the British, Nicholson states
that his men were landed at the request of
the khedve, to protect the American con-
sulate, and to assist In extinguishing the fires
that were raging in that vicinity. and that his
men re-embarked as soon as order was re-
stored, leaving, however. just enough to guard
the consulate. Nicholson says he received
the thanks of the khedive, and the British
commander for the service rendered in ex-
tinguishing the fires.

MAINE DISPATCHES.
SERVICES AT THE sEAsHORE.
Proceedings Of the National Temperance
Association at Old orchard Beach.

OLD ORCHARD, Aug. 10.
At the National Temperance Association,
today, Mrs. Mclaughlin spoke at 9 A. NJ,
and at 10 o'clock ex-Gov. Sidney Perham
gave a history of the temperance cause in
Maine so years age, and noted the mammoth
strides she had made. Then there were seven
distilleries in Portland, and one-half of the
goods transported through the country from
that city was liquors. He made a strong ar
gument to show that the law should be strict
ly enforced. He was followed by A. H. P.
Buffum, a temperance worker of Gardiner.
At o'clock business meeting was held and
officers were chosen for the ensuing year as
follows: President, Hon. Nelson Dingley,
Jr. secretary, Rev. I. Luce; treasurer, Rev.
ID. w. Lelacheur. At p. NJ. Hon. William
Frye took the stand. The first question was :
"Why is there q devil?" There were beau
ties in the garden of paradise, but there was
a devil. There are beauties and great re-
sources in this nation, but there is also
devil and the devil is rum. TwO-thirds Of
the republican party are temperance men, and
should only vote for temperance men. He
gave history Of the temperance measure in
Congress to have commission to investigate
the liquor traffic. In order to make the liquor
law success it must be enforced. No polit-
ical party could live in Maine that ignored
temperance. One half the members of Con-
gress are tetotalers. Maine has sent its law
into Iowa, Kansas and Ohio. Amid great
applause Mr.. Frye said he was willing to
spend month stumping the State for con-
stitutional amendment. Four thousand peo-
pie were present. Hon. ]. X. Osgood made
strong temperance speech in the evening.

to perform his duty the classed towns
must make such arrangements as they can
about their representatives. and the decis-
ion which Judge Whitehouse made in the
case presented to him forms q good
example for towns in like circumstances
to follow. The Lewiston Journal
endorses it and advises as follows
Judge Wbitehouse's opinion is timely and
valuable. and, doubtless, will be an impor-
tant guide to the towns formerly classed to-
sether, in determining their course. Proba-
bly, il was one Of the objects of the fusion
managers in Indicating the re-apportionment, to
perplex republicans and multiply entangling
issues. in the hope that some Of the C ose rep
resentaiive districts might be gained BY the
fusionists.
Our advices from many such districts, how
ever, lead US to believe that in every case re-
pubIicans will reach harmonious conclusions.
Gov. Plaisted does not expect to carry the
State, but he will bend every energy TO con-
troll the legislature He seeks not the execu-
tive chair but Senator Frye's. Nothing but
republican divisions can save his Excellency
from a Waterloo, and it is gratifying to OBJ
serve that republicans have no intention of
accommodating him with anything less.
The republicans now have twenty-thr Of
the thirty-ODe senat0rships, but of these
twelve ere secured by less than l00piurality.
In the House the republicans had eighty four
members TO sixty seven of the opposition. OF
these eighty four, six had from one to five
votes more than their opponents. nine had
less than ten. and sever teen less than thirty.
Six members of the opposition had less than
ten plurality. The change of fourteen dis
tricts from the republicans to the fusionists
would elect Plaisted United States Senator,
and there are at least thirty-five seats in both
Houses which the fusionists will struggle for.
Hence, the obvious importance of the close
legislative districts. Let republicans hearth
" unite with but this object in view-the
nomination of the best man for the complete
overthrow of PIaistedism in Maine.

A Steamer for Fairfield,

On Monday afternoon last party of Fair
field gentlemen visited Gardiner to investi-
gate the working and merits of the fire
steamer, the "Cobbossee," of the Silsby
pattern. Chief Engineer Hooker, with
his usual courtesy, had the machine taken
out and placed on the old Gay wharf,
where she played for an hour or two
through different lengths of hose, and va
rious sizes of pipes. Mr.. Silsby, the manu-
facturer. was present to explain the advan-
tages Of the machine, and furnish all infor-
nation the visiting committee might desire.
A large delegation from this city we're

mitted in Ireland.

He states that the assassins. who were dis
guised. numbered four or five. Joyces moth
er was over so years of age. Part of her
body was devoured by dogs before her corpse
was discovered. The house in which the

had been battered with a hammer. The
murder was the most horrible that has ever
disgraced Ireland. Four persons have been
arrested on suspicion of being concerned in
the murders.

LONDON, Aug. 10.
The Dublin correspondent of the Leeds
Mercury states that Earl Spencer, lord lieu
tenant of Ireland, has received authority to
act as he sees fit in the case of Mr.. Gray. 1t
is generally anticipated that Mr.. Gray will
shortly be released.
The correspondent of the Pail Mall Gazette
at Dublin states that Lord Mayor Dawson IN
a letter in which he encloses fI0 towards
paying Mr.. Gray's fine, says he has prepared
to take all legal steps as member of the
court which sentenced Mr.. Gray to evince
his want of concurrence in its action. 1t is
thought that Hynes, who was convicted by

Gray's paper. with being drunk the night be-
fore their verdict was rendered, will be
