1hs Rxpsrience Of New York Drummer
- the Hands Of Young Lady OF ssvan-
nah, Georgia, whose Acquaintance He
Sought Improperly.
Fs SAVANNAH, GA, Sept 10.
A cowhiding scrspe, in which bewitch-
ing brunette Of the upper ten thousand
played the leading role, created veritable
sensation in the city tonight. She had
been annoyed BY several notes from man
supposed to be q commercial traveller for q
New York house, and upon the advice of q
gentleman friend granted the unknown
correspondent the privilege of calling at
her home. Not anticipating a trap the
stranger appeared tonight, and had hard
ly gained the parlor when he asked the
lady's company for stroll. Ac.
cspting the invitation she left the
house, but had not proceeded half a
block when the gentleman who had con.
cocted the plot passed her and handed her
. heavy cowhide. Without q word of warn.
ing she suddenly commenced slashing her
insulter across the face with the whip, and
before he could realize the situation he was
streaming with blood, and had both ewes
nearly closed. His attempted apology only
drew forth more blows, and he finally took
to his heels. The lady appeared not the
least overcome by the excitement, and re.
gained her home before the family were
aware Of what was going on. Had the chas-
tized dude fallen into the hands of the
lady's brother he would in all probability
have met with dose of cold lead. Efforts
are making to ferret out the man, and IL
successful further sensational DEVELOPMENTS
may be looked for.

A FEARFUL WRECK.

Destruction of n Construction Train with
Over Hundred Laberers on Board-Sev-
eral Men Killed and a Large Number
Terribly Mutilated-A Hand.Car on the
Track the Cause Of the Accident.
SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept 10.
The most disastrous accident that has yet
occurred on the New York, West Shore &
Buffalo Railroad took place this morning at
De Witt, q small station six miles east Of
this city. A construction train of eleven
dat cars left here at 6:45 a. m, pushed
ahead of the engine. There were about one
hundred laborers, mostly Italians, on the
cars, on their way to Kirkville to complete
,he ballasting Of the road preparatory to
opening the new line to this city on Octo-
DER 1. Arriving at the point of the disas-
tor, the train was moving at the rate Of
about twenty miles an hour. Rounding
q curve hand-car was seen standing on
the track. The engineer could not stop in
time, and the train was completely wrecked.
The cars were broken into fragments and
piled upon each other. Most of the men
jumped and escaped with slight injuries.
Others were thrown as high as forty feet
in the air. About thirty men were buried
in the debris. Heads, arms and legs could
be seen sticking out at nearly all points.
Word reached this city that twenty men
had been killed outright. Relief trains
were sent to the scene at once. Twenty
two bodies were taken from the wreck.
Peter Schmidt, John Carr and Mays Alex
ander were taken out dead. Giuseppe
Marella died while being conveyed to this
city. Ten men were found very seriously
injured, and the remainder with broken
limbs and disfgured features. 1t is ex-
pected that five more men will die. An in
quest will open tomorrow. Foreman
Haines, who had charge of the hand-car, is
said to be at fault for the accident.

A Daring Dash for Liberty.

HELENA, MONT, Sept. 20.
Last evening when the turnkey went into
the cage to lock five prisoners up in their
cells for the night they sprang upon him,
hurled him on the floor and rushed out of
the cage. At the door they met Con Nc
Ginley, a guard, and, Selling him, used him
as shield against the bullets Of Deputy
Sheriff Steele, who was standing near by
with pistol in hand. The five men managed
10 get outside without getting hurt. Steele
chased them up the alley toward Rodney
street, firing at them in the dark at every
jump. When Rodney street was reached
three surrendered, and we're turned over to
the bystandsrs. A fourth was chased sew
eral blocks before he was overtaken. The
fifth, Charles, Cooper, got away and has

Naval Rank and Grades.

Few persons understand the matter
Of grade and rank in the navy. although
MANY may be familiar with titles and
partly with their application. Officers
are divided into the g line, staff"
"marine'' and warrant" officers. The
line includes, in order, the Admirals,
Commodore, Captains, Commanders,
Lieutenant Commanders, Lieutenants,
Ensigns and Midshipmen (the grade OF
Master having been abolished by the
last Congress). The staff officers include
the engineer, medical and pay corps.
With the exception of the medical and
pay corps, all of the aforementioned
are graduates of the Naval Academy,
and, receiving their commissions direct
" from the President of the United
States. with the approval OF the Senate,
are appointed for life. The ma
rine officers belong to a distinct
i've corps, generally termed "sea SOL
diers," and receive their commissions
from the Secretary of the Navy. They
are appointed from civil life. although
many members of that corps were at
one time Midshipmen and failed in their
examination. The warrant officers are
the boatswains. gunners, carpenters anu
sail-makers. The boatswains and gun
ners are generally promoted to those,
positions from among the apprentices
bows of the training ships, or from the
enlisted men. The sail-makers and
carpenters are appointed from civil
life.
The petty officers form a heightened
list and are, in grade. equivalent to the
non-commissioned officers of the army.
They include the master-at-srms. ships
corporsls, boatswain's. gunner's. car
penter's and sail-maker's mates; quar-
termasters, coxswains, captains Of the

A Typical Episode of Far Western Life
Tho Bullet the ATbiter in the Settlement
of Personal Grievances-Three Lives Less

SoCoRRo, N. NJ, Sept. 10.
One Ct those terrible tragedies in West
ern life which occasionally occur took place
Monday evening on the Alamo ranch Of the
Big Four Cattle Company, in the Galena
Mountains, about fifty miles west of Socor-
70, and an examination of the parties took
place this morning before Justice Beall.
Joel Fowler, who killed three Rustlers
about a year ago, started from his ranch
for COW hunt. He discovered that one of
his men, known as Pony, was brother Of
one Of the men whom he had killed. He
discharged him. Pony came into Socorro
and with Butcher-knife IN returned to
Fowler's ranch to kill him. Fowler was
riding to Alamo ranch with his men, and
when within twenty-yards Of the stone.
house saw Pony and Bill. Both OF them
drew rcvolvers. Bill fired at Fowler. Tbs
latter drew his shotgun and killed Bill at
the first shot. Pony then ran back behind
the house, and fired five times at Fowler,
who had dismounted and ran toward him.

Fowler.
At this time MCGEE, who occupied the
house, rode up and learning of the trouble
told Pony to come ont of the house. As he
received no answer, he thought that Pony
was dead, so he walked to the door and
kicked it open and put his head in to look
around. Pony shot him through the head,
killing him at once
Fowler then proposed to Pony that he
come out and fight him alone with pistols,
or give himself up and be taken to Socorro.
Pony did not answer. The house was then
fired to drive him out. but rather than be
taken Pony killed himself by a bullet
through the head. The intention was evil
IDENTIFY to kill Fowler, as both the men fired
at him at once. They had no other object
in going to the Alamo ranch. Pony had
said when he came to Socorro that he would
leave for Texas. The three bodies were
buried in the same grave. MCGEE was a
good man, respected by all who knew him.
Butcher knife Bill's real name is said to be
Childs. He was gambler and bore an un-
savory reputation. Pony Forest had only
lately come from Fort Griffin, Tex.
