Crowd Of Children Crushed.
FRIGHTFUL DISASTER IN SUNDERLAND
ENGLAND.
[By cable to the Dispatch ]


LONDON. June 1G. IAN accident from
crush occurred at children's enter
tainment atSunderland, England, this
evening, and is Of the children were
killed.
From details thus far received i, APP
pears that an entertainment had been
given in Victoria Hall by conjurOr
which was attended almost altogether
by children, to the number Of several
thousand. The accident occurred at
the close Of the performance The
body Of the hall had been entirely
cleared Of its occupants, when some
1900 Of the little ones came rushing
down stairs from the gallery. At the
top of the first flight of stairs there
was door which opened only twenty
inches, and thus but one child could
pass through it at time. AT this
point, while mass of children were
pushing forward, one Of them fell,
and was unable to rise, owing TO 9TH
ers crowding on, The result was than
great number were pushed down,
trampled on and suffocated'
The scene was terriable, and no effort
could stop the mad rush of affrighted
children. They came on pell-
nell, though strangely quiet, without
much shouting. The bodies, which
were badly mangIed from trompling
laid seven or eight deep. Many of the
victims and others who were not kill
ed had their clothing torn from their
bodies. The ages Of the IFS children
known TO have been killed range
from fonr to fourteen years.
The excitement in town when the
news Of the disaster spread was ter.
rife. Great crowds Of people rushed
TO the scene until at least 10000 per.
sons surrounded the hall. The feeling
was so intense that the authorities
ordered out the SIxty-eighth infantry
to preserve order. The work of get
ting out the bodies ofthe victims wa:
begun Immediately. They were laid
out in the hall, and the parents o.
those killed were admitted for tie
purpose Of identifying the bodies o
their children. The most Lcartrendln9
scenes transpired while the work o
Identification was in progress.

The Star-ROutc Trial Ended

WAsnINGToY, June l4.-The ver>

Jury in the star.rouic cases day vas
a genuine surprise TO every one except
the defendants and their friends, all
of whom have for weeks passed been
confident in expressing the opinion
that the jury would acquit. When
the trial commenced there were few
who anticipated other than conviction,
but as ii dragged its slow length long
the opinion was modified, untl for a
long time past not even the prosccu-
ting council hoped for SO much. Bat
a hung jury was what was aniicl>

those personally interested, and who

ensued was exciting and dramatic. One
of the learned counsel for the defense

Jumping up on the counsel table when

other, Colonel Ingersoll, turned around
and kissed his cwn wife, who harpen-

handkerchief, and another smiled,
while John W. Dorsey was apparent
" as unconcerncd as if it was a mat

carry out her intention. The manner
of Judge Wylie in discfarging the

WOODSTOCK. VIRGINIA
"Wednesday, June 90, 1883.

THE Democratic party of Virginia
encouraged bv the result of the Spring
elections. are becoming fully aroused 10
the importance of complete organiza-
ton and earnest work to redeem the
State from the control Of the party now
having charge Of the government. The
contest for the Legislature this tall VIII
be entered upon by the democrats with
tie determination to win. The con-
test IS doubly important. First, be-
cluse It is important that the State
government should be under the con.
troll OF the white people Of the State.
Il is important not only 10 the whites
but also to the colored. The MahOn-
cite party are dependent upon the be-
gro element for success, and be ne thus
dependent, they can only hold this
element by concedng whatever de-
mands the negroes may make. The
negroes being the maj )nty Of that
party, their success necessarily places
the management Of state affairs into
their bands. The tax-levying power
would be placed into the hands Of that
element which pay the least taxes.
The property holders, the men who
pay the bulk of the taxes. may for a
while be deceived by side issues. but
they will finally appreciate the impor.
lance Of caring for their own interests
and,will ultimately be found with the
party whose interests are Identical
with their own. These considerations
must and will have effect with the
thinking white people OF the state who
are interested in good government, be-
cause good government protects THEN
interests.
Secondly, the result of the State cleo
tons this fall will have an effect uPOu
the Presidential contest Of next year.
Thousands OF men voted With the read
busters in the State debt issue. who had
no idea Of entering the Republican par
ty and are now unwilling that Malone
shall barter them TO the stalwart WIG
OF the republican party as he would
sell so many cattle in public market
They are democra aud will continue
TO vote the democratic ticket. 50 soon
as they appreciate the fact that the re.
suit Of this falls election will have an
effect upon the presidential contes: oil
1884, they will take their stand. where
they have always stOcd,rr an open con.
test between the democratic and repub'
hcan parties. They are demOcaai:
now and recognizing the fact that the
deb: issue is not involved IN future con.
tests they will act with their old friends
and their old party. Immediate or
eanization and the dissemination Of
tull information throughout every sec.
tlOn Of the State Is very important
Virginia is democratic state. and it is
only by the most criminal negligence
upon the part Of democrats, that it can
be lost to the democratic party.
