TRAIN WRECKERS.
Ten Persons Killed and Fifteen
Wounded by the Work of Train
Wreckers i'm Texas.

HEMPsTEAD, Tex, Nov. l4.--About 80
O'Clock this morning the north bound train
on the Houston & Texas Central railway was
wrecked at Clear Creek station, about two
miles south Of this place, and as far as
known ten people were killed outright and
fifteen wounded more OF less dangerously.
Investigation by the railway authorities re-
veals that the diabolical work work was done
by discharged employees and thieves in the
vicinity, who sought to wreck
freight train for spoils contained.
Breaking into the section house the wreckers
obtained the necessary tools, and by pulling
spikes and christening fish plates arranged
the rail to yield to the pressure without, how
ever, entirely removing it. 1t so happened
that a passenger train having the RICH: of
way and being behind hand was the first to
reach the scene of the disaster, striking the
loosened rail. The engine and tender got
over safely, while two baggage cars,
mail and express and two Pullman
sleepers went over the thirty foot embank-
ment and into the creek. In the baggage
car, L Cardoza, travelling passenger agent of
the New York, Texas d Mexican railway,
was drowned, together with E. f. Loris,
baggage master, and Green Lewis, colored
porter. The following are the killed and
wounded:

L. Cardoza. travelling passenger agent of
the New York, Texas IL Mexican railway.

The Press Bureau Figures Wrong.


NEW YORK, Nov. 14-The managing ed
itor Of morning paper here, says: ssThe
city press bureau figures on the election
districts in the city sent to the
Western Associated Press on the
night of election are correct and
are found 10 be correct by the eanvassers.
But the bureau in grouping the figures into
assembly districts got them mixed up, and
the returns as canvassed by assembly dis
tricts are Of course entirely different from
the bureaus. The totals are the
same, but the assembly districts all
differ more or less, and thus far show an
apparent gain for Blaine that in reality will
be restored to Cleveland later on by figures
from the other districts. The bureaus figures
on the election district are right.
The figures by assembly districts are all
wrong, but the totals Of both agree, and the
trouble was the bureau got the wrong figures
in the assembly district tables. We (the
managing editor, and s dozen others are
convinced of this because we have been over
the figures time and again.

The Prospective Lady of the White HOHs
Under the Netc administration.
Albany Special to Philadelphia Times.
Here it is regarded as settled that Gov.
Cleveland is the next President, and already
the gossips are busy with coniectures as to
who will be the lady of the White House.
There is we'll defined belief among his
friends that there is a young lady in Western
New York who will soon be led to the altar
by the President-eect Others who have
known him long and well say that he will
never marry and that this talk simply comes
of the fact that he has shown this young wo-
man some slight attentions since he was
elected Governor. Early in life his hope.
and ambitions for wife were crushed BIZ the
hand of death, and his affection for the lost
one has kept him treading the wine-press of
life alone. If the reports that he is to mar
~ are not true, then his own immediate
family will furnish the lady to do the social
honors Of his administration.
1t is generally believed by those who know
him best that there will be less festivities
during his term of Office than there have
been for many years past. He has been a
Woodworking Governor and will probably
continue his industrious habits as President.
Bachelor as he is, the White House will,
however, have most creditable mistress.
There are four ladies in his immediate fam
ity, either of whom can well do the honors of
the household. His eldest sister in this
country, Mrs. w. Z. Hoyt. of Fayetteville.

middle-aged lady, Of pleasing address, VINO

she would do her share in entertaining her

Cleveland has sister who for twenty years

two charming young lady daughters, Mary
and Carrie Hastings, whom the Governor
has been for years educating in this country.
He has given them every advantage and they
have improved them. They will no doubt
be part of their unele's family circle at
Washington, ss they have been at times

other ladies spoken of, the social end of the
first Democratic administration for quarter
of century will be well sustained, even

TO MEET SULLIVAN.

Thinks Will Whip the Boston
Pugilist.

Especial Telegram 20 the Giobe.i
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE bout with gloves
which is to take place at Madison Square Gar
den on next Monday evening between Al
Greenfield, the English champion, aud Sulli-
van, the Boston boy, is exciting as much b.
terest in sporting circles as the former fight
between Paddy Ryan aud Sullivan.
Half of the disciples of Fist
lana have conceived the notion
that Greenfield will be the victor. They say
that Richard X. Fox, who registered vow
never to rest until he found a man to whip
Sullivan, is satihed that Greenfield can con-
quer the Boston Hercules. Billy Edwards,
Arthur Chambers and Harry Hill are among
those who believe that the Englishman is good
enough to win. Greenfield is training hard at
Flushing, and was never in better physical
condition. His trainers are Robby Clark and
Jim Brown. They say their man is fit to
whip an elephant.
Sullivan sat in chair on the balcony Of
Monico villa this morning. A small army Of
sporting men were about him, and his hstic
mentor, Pat Sheely, stood by bis side. The
Boston boy smiled when told that Greenfield
expected to whip him.
''I've been hearing that thing for year."

neyerfelt better, and if Greenfield wins it will
be because he is the better man"
The match between Jack Burke, the noted
English pugilist and Charley Mitchell, is
billed for November "a at Madison Square
gardens. The bitter feeling between the
two principles and their partisans is intense,
and the fight will be exciting. Mitchell and
Burke met once in England and fought
drawn battle. Billy Madden says Mitchell

toga Lake and is in good form. Burke is
at Tarrytown and is In the pink OF condition.
