Frightful Crash On the Chicago q
Alton Railway.
Fifteen Cars Piled Up and Set Fire to
-.siracalous Escape of the
PasscHgers-A Vermont
Wreck.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, Sept. 25.-A disastrous
wreck occurred on the Chicago & Altor
railroad at / O'Clock Tuesday morning be.
tween Paducah junction and Cayuga, in
which vast amount of property was de
stroyed and train-load Of passengers
miracu!ously escaped with remarkably
slight injuries. When the south
bound passenger, which left Chicago
at 9 O'Clock the evening before, was two
miles south of Paducah junction the engine
broke IA piston rol and the train was obliged
to stop A fiagman was sent back TO signal
heavy freight which pulled out of Cayuga
fifteen minutes after the passenger. The
fiagman faiIed to go back far enough and
the freight crashed into the rear of the pas
senger, throwing the two sleepors off the
track. Fifteen freight ears were piled on
top of and about the engine aud sleepers,
The cars took fire, and the engine, the two
sleepers, and the fifteen freight cars were
consumed, together with all freight and the
baggage and clothing of the passengers.
Although it was the dead of night and
during a terrific storm of rain and electricity,
every passenger and trainmen was gotten
out of the Sleerers and the wreck of the
freight before the cars were enveloped in
fame Tie scene is described as having
been one Of the most exciting ever wit
messed, and may lie consi Tered a mat
ter of tie greatest congratulation
that what might have teen most ap-
palling catastrophe resulted as it did in
nothing but material loss No lives were lost,
neither was any one seriously injured The
loss TO the rolling stock is estimated at
$4,000, and to merchandise sl0,0D. The
blame is fixed by the company on the crew
of the passenger train, who, with one posi-
bic exception, were discharged. Tho COM
pany has adjusted nearly all the claims for
losses.
Following is IA list of the wounded: J. G..
Brandt, st. Louis; Mrs, Ligget and child, Of
St. Louis; j. E. 2eublin, Baltimore and Ohio
Telegraph company; Conductor Cranson,
Pullman car; Robert jacobson, porter; j. B.
Freidheim, Camden, Ark; J. G. Clifford,
| brakeman, and others None of the wounded
| is seriously hurt.

stances which led to the shooting Tues
day. In the summer of 1888 Mrs. john
son spent several months at Greenville,
and during the absences of her husband was
thrown into the company of Maj. Henry,
who was very much older than herself.
After her return home in the fall, john
sons suspicious were aroused in some way,
and he secured from his wife full con-
fession of the intimacy that had ex
listed between her and Henry. The letters
were the most pathetic and at the same
time graphic it is possible to imagine, and
their pleading to be restored to the place she
had forfeited in his affections would have
moved heart of stone After obtaining
these johnson came home, arriving Thanks
giving Day. That night he had long inter-
view with his wife, in which he announced
his intention of sending her to some
cure for treatment, and in the morning she
was found dead, having shot herself through
the heart After death stories began to cir
culate charging johnson with having driven
her to suicide by cruel treatment, and her
father began suit to quiet the title of the
property in which they lived in his
name the complaint embodying the
substance of these rumors. To put
himself right before the public Johnson
gave his wife's letters for publication, when
they created great sensation, and after a
time of negotiation the suit was with
drawn. In this connection johnson also told
how Henry in October had followed his wife
to this city, but did not obtain an interview
with her. On ore occasion their son. Griffith,
saw Henry pass the house and got a gun to
shoot him. but the man got away
in speaking of the matter to friends,
johnson frequently said he would kill
Henry, but this fact was kept concealed.
John on took his boy, about Is years old, and
returned south, Commissioner Dudley, at
his own request transferring him to New Or
leans from Greenville. Nothing had been
heard from him since then in public way,
and expectation of q further step in the trag
edy had died out wheE the startling news OF
Tuesday was received and interest revived
in the sad affair.

There is bit of internal evidence TO
prove Mr.. Blaine's authorship of the
"Madigan circular" In the one intended
for general circulation occurs this pas
sage: THE hope that the Roman Catho-
lies have of breaking down non sectarian
free schools is in certain leading demo-
cratic politicians of the country who, to
propitiate and curry favor with the Irish
voters, are willing to attack the free
school system.
The circular was issued to defeat James
C. Madigan, who was the democratic can
didate in the Fourth Congressional dis
trict. The election occurred on Septem>
Der IS, 1876
On the 14th day of December, 1875, just
three months after Mr. Blaine rose in his
seat in congress and offered an amends
ment to the constitution as follows: :tNO
money raised by taxation in any state for
the support of public schools. or derived
from any public funds therefor, nor any
public lands devoted thereto, shall ever
be under the control of any religious sect.
Who can doubt but that the same mind
which conceived the Madigan circular
prepared the above amendment?

Hon. Roscoe CoNKLING is reported by
a New York paper as saying that for
years 'the republican party has waged a
relentless war against superiority, it has
placed 4 penalty upon leadership, and
driven to the wall those who gave it
strength and success" In regard to the
republican campaign he is represented as
saying. There is not a man of national
importance or reputation at the committee
headquarters. nor a man who represents
anything but Blaines personal favor. 1t
is simply Blaine campaign without an
issue, except the defense OF the candi>

NEW YORK, Sept. 25-In spite Of Vice
President Searles' emphatic denials, it is
believed that the Farmers Loan and Trust
company is a heavy loser by the disappear
ance of Frank Mum. For fifteen years
that gentleman had been a trusted and
honored clerk in the employ of the
concern. When he left his desk on Sat
urday he was the assistant secretary of the
company. He then Informed his superior of
ticer, Vice President Searles, that he was 60

Woodford wipe the track with the plugs

then Mr.. Mum has not been seen. His
wife does not apparently know of his
whereabouts. His absence has started al
sorts of runors on the street The story
now current is that Mum has embezzled
$500, 600 and fled to Canada Many of his
old friends, though 10th to believe hin
guilty, are now greatly agitated over hi.

Las Vegas, N. M, became convinced that
robbers were tunneling from an adjoining
building to the vault in the
bank Guards were Immediately
placed in and around the bank Those
inside observed the masonry at the vault
gradually sinking, but the robbers beneath
worked on ignorant of their danger. At
o'clock a Mexican volunteered to go down
cellar and Investigate He had taken few
steps on the stairs when he saw some
one coming up The Mexican fired with
out a word, and the maa fell dead The
body was brought out and the watchmen be-
gan tearing up the floor of the bank and the
adjoining building with the evident inten-
ton of shooting the robbers on sight The
work is slow, the men fearing to get in range
of those below, who at times are seen rushing
from one shadow to another Up to this
time nothing more of this hide-and-seek game
has been done. The dead robber was recog-
nized as one of the masons who built the

A colony of Pennsylvania miners have
raised the point never legally settled as
to whether a suit of clothes can be con-
sidered complete in the absence of sus-
pendcrs A dealer who had contracted to
furnish them with clothes, went to delivs
er the goods and because he had not
brought suspenders the miners refused to
accept them, holding that suit OF clothes
properly included those supporters The
dealer having contrary views, a fight en-
sued, resulting In the destruction of a
portion of the property and consequent
anguish of the owner. The matter will
come into the courts soon and the ques-
ton will be settled definitely. Now that
suspeuders are of such unparalleled splen-
dor the decision will, if in the affirmative,
bring Joy to the souls of the trousers
