An accident occurred at tie Base Bal
Park near this city yesterday afternoon.
The first of the OHIO League games wac
being played between the Logaps OF this
city AMI Riversides of Portsmouth About
three hundred people were on the grand
stand, onc-tnird being ladies'. At the
end of the secOnd-iuning = crack
ling was heard in the rear %
the building and Immediately after
ward the entire structure COZ
lapsed with q tremendous crash. A scene
of ;udescribable confusion ensued- Pale
faced, horror-stricken mcn rushed to the
rescue of the unfortunates in the wreck.
C~ooi-hcaded men instantly set about re-
leasing those buried in the ruins, and il
q few minutes they had all been liberated
or succeeded in ~iiberatinC themselves.
The most exaggerated reports rcachec
the city and in i few moments 4 stream oi
hacks, carriages and people rushed 10 the
ball park.
INJUEED-
Following is i list of those most seri-
ousiy injured. Fortunately non Were
killed, although some may die:
James Roberts, of Portsmouth, back
badly >prained: internal hurts.
Clifford Douglass, bruises and inter.
nal.
DR. VI. Pauley, serious internal in
jurIes-
jerry O'Kcife. TIE same
Burt Mitchell, badly hurt about the
head.
jos. Mcclure, ugly scalp wound; skull
fractured
John Hippy, leg broken.
Warren Chapman, ankle broken.
Frank X. Gilmore, sprain of right thigh
and injuries to abdomen.
Miss Gene Eaus. the only lady injured,
scalp wound nearly encircling the back
part at the head.
To add to the horrors of the affair
horses attached to carriages in the field
came near stamoeding, and but for the
strenuous exertions of Il few cool men
another catastrophe might have trod on
the heels of this one.
The total casualties foot up about fifty.
The greatest wonder i that some one
was not killed. The timber used in the
stand was very light, but the carpenter,
Nose Miller, in turning it over To the
club said he would stake his reputation
a. a carpenter on its security. That he
did not do his work properly has had ter
ribie demonstration

A Question. Of Population.

The total vote for mayor In the
Butte city election last Monday was
1851. At Helena's recent city
election the vote for mayor was
1868. According to these figures,
taking them rs q basis for calcu-
lation, Helena's population is about
one and two-third times as great as
that of Butte. Butte claims q popu.
lation of about 5000; and If the
claim is true, then Helena must
have between $4,000 and Il, 1000
Independent, 8th inst.
Let there be no MISUNDERSTANDING
about this matter. In the first place
a very light vote was polled. The
election was devoid of excitement
and of not sufficient Importance to
call out q full vote. Butte city
proper covers only about 100 acres of
ground. Helena contains nine
square miles or $3.50 acres. It TAKES
in q large portion of the valley be-
low the town and don't miss y
house above it. Butte has q dense
population contiguous to the city linn
its. Walkerville, C%enterville, Mead
erville, Travonia and the depot are
each separate voting precincts. Give
Butte the same area as Helena and
it would take them all within
her limits, her population would
more than double that of the Capital
city. Butte has q much larger pop
ulatiOn in her 100 acres than Helena
has in the same area. These facts
are stated that our Helena neighbors
may learn that Butte is a city within
a city. Helena has. the territory of a
county.

Government Grain Contracts.

The following good news for Mon
tana grain growers we clip from the
River Press: 1t is a gratifying fact
that the grain contracts for Fort AS
sinahoine, Fort Maginnis and o
Buford have been secured by
Benton parties, and that all will be
supplied with prime Montana oats
this year. 1. q. Baker & Co. have
the contract for Forts Assinaboine
and Buford, and very probably. at
Fort Maginnis. At Assina5olne
736, 900 pounds of oats and 100000
pounds of corn are called for, the sue.
cessful bid for the former being $2.l9
per cwt. At Fort BufOrd the require.
ment is 400, 900 pounds OF oats, and
Baker & Co. will deliver it at $l.6S
per cwt., shipping the grain by rlver
from this city. This will be the first
export of oats from northern Mon
tana In any considerable quantity:
Fort Maginnis requires l,5oV,VOV
pounds of oats, and no corn. Inc
lowest bid is $2.25, and it is supposed
to be that of /. g. Baker & Co. The
bid was put in by w. G. Conrad, and
It is not known exactly by the house
here what it was. 1t is certain thai
nobody who expected to ship GA ts
from the States would make SO low a
bid.
The total amount OF oats to he
mus shipped from this section is q
4SS 600 pounds, and 1t will take
ABOUT every pound of oats In the
country to ill the contracts. and II
may be necessary to draw upon the
new crop. Thus q cash market TO!
ene surplus grain is assured, and
SHen II the price to be paid Is moi
o'ge, It will doubtless be acceptable
70 the farmers.

NJ. r.. Conference.

PHILADELPHIA, May 9.-In the
Methodist conference Bishop Harris
announced in response to a resolution
adopted yesterday that the election of
| three additional bishops will ade-
quately provide for all requirements.
The standing committee on missions
reported recommending fixing epis-
copal residences in Europe and In
dia. DR.. Wheeler, of Erie, read a
minority report to the effect that res
ident bishops in Europe and India
were not demanded by the interest of
the church. He moved its reference
to the committee on episcOpacy. DR..
Wheeler maintained the resolution
contemplates the establishment of
episcopal residences in Europe and
India in the same way as in Boston
and San Francisco. The report was
referred to the committee on episco-
pacy.
The committee on judiciary re-
ported that under the third restrict
i've rule the general conference has
power to appoint a missionary bishop
or superintendent for any foreign
mission, limiting its Jurisdiction
to the same, and with the exception
that all our bishops shall he equal
in authority and jurisdiction and
subject to the same assignments of
work. 1t is the opinion the commit
tee that the general conference has
power to fix the residence of all
bishops in any part of the country
occupied oy the Methodist Episcopal
church. The report was adopted
with an amendment that the words
''other than missionary bishops" be
ADDED so it should read 'all our
bishops other than missionary
bishOps."

that they would say nothing about
It. In one pan from the grass roots

WASHINGTON, May Attorney
General Brewster in an interview
says the Kellogg case was dismissed,
but the innocence of the defendant
wasn't proved, and If the latter
hadn't pleaded the statute of limita-
lions he would have had ample op
portunity to vindicate his innocence.
To this Governor Kellogg replies
that it is not true that he pleaded the
statute of limitations and that the
Attorney General repeatedly said
there was no case against him. He
further says unless q stronger com:
mittee investigates the case he will
soon make q statement in the House
showing the double dealing and by
pocrisy of the Attorney General in
the whole matter.

WASHINGTON, May Before the
Jeanette COMMITTEES the cross ex-
animation Of DR.. Collins was con-
ti0ued. He re>affirmea the state
ment Lieut.. Lemby had told him.
He would object to any question be-
fore the court of inquiry which
might reflect on the dead man.
He also reaf1rmed his statement
that Lieutenant Lemby told him
it was Secretary Chandter's
wish the investigation be hushed up
and also stated he was told the
charges against his brother wouldn't
be presented to the court Of inquiry
unless he persisted in his course.
The evidence witness gave of the
conversation he had with Newcomb
was also reiterated, and he declared
he believed Newcomb had willfully
misstated these conversations.
Mrs. Emma De Long, widow of
Captain De Long, testified her hus-
band studied the provision lists of
other Arctic explorers, before Sc
Letting provisions for the Jeanette
and endeav0red to secure the best.
His idea was officers aud men should
fare alike. The route of the expe-
dition was chosen by Bennett after
consultation with DR.. Petermann.
Witness thought the ship was as
carefully and completely furnished
with clothing and provisions as pos
sibfe. She felt perfectly satisfied
that everything was done for her
husbands relief that could be done.
She had q conversation with
Bennett about the expedition the day
Danenhower reached New York.
Bennett told her he heard very strict
discipline was enforced on the Jeans
nette, but that ne wanted the expe-
dition to be q strictly military one.
He also said that some criticisms had
been made on Captain belong for
stopping on his way to the Siberlan
coast for the purpose of exploring
Bennett Island, but that belong
would not have been the man he
(Bennett) took him for if he had
passed by that undiscovered land
without examining it. La conclusion,
Bennett said he considered the cause
of belongs death a most heroic
thing. This closed the testimony
and arguments will be made tO>mOr-
row.
