AGAIN TO EARTH.

At O'Clock they were descending and
soon were so close to the earth that the
drag rope was chased by a score of
persons. One man caught the rope, and
soon the party descended and found them
selves in the village Of WaterYille.
AT 1885 the balloon again darted
upward, sweeping past a mountain
and on toward Lake Champlain, over
which they crossed at the height of 1000
feet. 1t was nearly dark when they
passed over Lake Champlain, and soon
afterward they crossed the Canadian
border and were talking French with Ca
madam farmers. After this they were told
that they were heading directly for Mon
treal.
Their speed was tremendous, but above
the roar of the Lachine rapids they could
hear the drag rope splash its way along.
Soon they were smashing tho tops of
trees and afterward landed in a potato
patch. Here the storm overlook them
and all were drenehed. They were finally
driven in a cab to shelter. and to-day were
able to present themselves in public.
They left for home by the evening train.

Frightful Accident Reported on the
Grand Trunk Railway.
Twenty-Seven Victims Dead and q
Great Number lDjured-.- Great
Fire at Howard City, Mich....
Steamboat Disaster.

TORONTO. JAM 3.-One of the most harrow,
ing calamities that has happened in this
neighborhood for long time occurred here
on the Grand Trunk railway. A suburban
train left the Union station at Gao, with a
car attached, which was filed with en-
ployes of the bolt works who live in the
city, and VINO were conveyed to their
daily labor by this means. the train
stopping for them opposite the works. After
turning the curve at Parkdale boundary, q
freight train was observed coming cityward,
but the impetus of both trains was too much
to allow the brakes to do duty in time, and
the result was fearful smash-up, ending in a
shocking tragedy.
Nineteen men employed at the bolt works
are reported to be killed and twenty or
thirty wounded. The conductor of the
freight train, George Barber. is said to be
responsible for the accident as he was run
ming his train without orders. He has been
arrested.
The last accounts place the number Of dead
at twenty-seven. Several of the injured are
SO badly MANNED that they are rot expected
to recover. The affair casts gloom over
the city. The wounded are lying in the
hospital and several doctors are giving them
every attention An eye-witHe,s describes
the scenes at the wreck as heartrending in
the extreme. The mutilated bodies, the
groans of the dying and the shrieks of the
wounded were enough to appall the strongest.
Tho newspaper offices are crowded.

Tho Prohibition Question in low.

Tho Prohibition Question In Iowa.
CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-Ex-Judge C. C. Nourse,
of Des Moines, who is prominent in the pro
hibition movement in Iowa, said to re-
porter at the I q mer house that senti-
ment was growing in Iowa that while the
legislature might repeal the wine aid beer
clause in ths prohibition law, it
would not make the second or
third offense against the statute a
felony. Said he: "There are fifty-two
Republican members of the general assembly
who are pledged to the passage of prohib-
itory legislation, who will vote for the repeal
Of the wine and beer clause. When it comes
to making the second or third offense a fell
ony, however, l think it doubtful whether
they will support it. There are too many
Republicans who are weak-kneed on the
question, and the Greenbackers and Demo-
Gratis for party reasons are axious to pre-
vent the Re,dblicans from redeeinihg the
pledges on the strength Of which the Repub-
licans were elected,n
Judge Nourse also said that it was not be-
lieved the legislature would propose the con-
stitutional amendment obliging the assembly
to pass prohibitory bill, because great
many believed that the supreme court ex-
ceeded its jurisdiction in declaring the first
passage irregular. He believed it, and he
said the failure of Judge Day to be reelected
grew out of this opinion of the supreme court

Indiana Politics.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 3-The indianapolis
special to the Enquirer says: Some Of the
Republican papers throughout the state are
talking of Gresham and Calkins for governor
and lieutenant governor, with the under
standing that il the legislature is Republican
Gresham must be senator, SO as to give
Calkins the gubernatorial chair. Calkin !.
however, Is understood to positively
refuse to run for Lieutenant governor, for tho
reason that it is an empty h, 6r, and he doea
not deem II expedient to give up his seat in
congress in lnere anticipation Of higher p. o.
motion, Relative to Gresham, there is got d
authority for saying that the president
OBJ ects the general taking any part in
state politics for fear of embarrassing his
cabinet, nj that Immediately preceding the
presidents retirement Gresham will be
named as the successor of Judge Drummond.

The fire originated on Main street, and be-

came an instant prey to the devoling ele-
ment, dwellings. stores, and everything that

I. N. Benton and John T. Case left the
city with tows for lower ports. Their
progress was slow owing to the ice and strong
current When Davis island was reache /
the boats lost control of the tows and swung
against the south pier. Three boats sunk at
once. The Case drifted to the head of Neville
island, where she lodged. The Benton was
not so fortunate. The shock K of the collision
threw the fire from unler her boilers
and in two minutes she was burning in
dozen places. A scene of the utmost con-
fusion followed. The crew, numbering
twenty men, became panc-stricken, and sew
eral jumped overheard midway between the
wharf and the burning vessel. As above re-
lated, all but few of them are believed 10 ue
safe.
The crew, to the number of sixteen, were
rescued by the men OF the Case Shortly
