Mr.. Hendrfeks's Accessibility.

During the past ten years have in
terviewed Mr.. Hendricks many times.
Never but once did he show anger or
lack Of that courtesy which was so
characteristic Of the man. 1t was then
but q brief, passing cloud, which,
when it rolled away, left him as bright,
genial, courteous as he had ever been.
1t was in 1880, and the news had just
been received that General Hancock had
beennominated for the presidency. ! inn
mediately ran down to Mr.. Hendricks's
law-ofiice in the Bank building to get an
expression of opinion from him regard
ing the man who had been chosen.
Mr.. Hendricks was very much agitated
and his face flushed with anger. In
manner that to him was rude aud tenn
pestuous, because so foreign to his calm
demeanor, he exclaimed: /" You GER
tainly do not want TO interview me,
sir; you cannot want any expression
from me on this OCCASION" He walked
up and down the room three or four
times, and then, relaxing into gracious
ness. asked the reporter what in the
world he expected in the way Of
an interview. Then approaching
the fact, perhaps, that his agi-
tation at the reception of the
news might be made TO appear ridicu-
lous in an opposition paper, he stopped
short and waited the onset of the in
terviewer. Informing Mr.. Hendricks
that | intended to make note only Of
what he said, and that would write at
his dictation only what he did say and
without comment, he was again quite
benignant. But the eight or ten lines
of dictation was neither a congenial
nor an easy task, even for bis ready
mind, and the smooth approbatiye no.
things had to be written and rewritten
nearly half dozen times before they
passed muster and were hurried away
to be marshalled in cold types.
There was no dwelling of an Indiana
public man so easy Of ingress to re-
porter as the plain, old-fashioned house
Of Governor Hendricks. 1t lost none
of its old-fashioned comforts and cor
diality when the owner Of the house
became Vice-President. think have,
upon various visits, been in nearly every
room in it, except the kitchen, and
have interviewed Mr.. Hendricks all
over the house. lie was ever
the same, whether above stairs or
below. Mrs. Hendricks's presence du-
ring these interyiews-and she was near
ly always present-made no difference
TO the interviewer, she seemed so natu-
rally part of the affair. She frequent
ly facilitated the reporters work, as a
pleasant and apt word here and there
helped the reporter on with his ques-
tons, or amplified what might have
been a more terse reply on the part Of
Mr.. Hendricks.

Tue Indian Troubles.

TOMBSTONE, ARIz., December L.
Lieutenant Maus, with Chief-of-Scouts
Harrison, arrived here to-day from
Crawford's command, now In the mid
die pass Of Dragon mountains. Chat
to, now the head chief remaining with
the Chiracahuas on the reservation,
telegraphed Sunday TO Crawford's
Apache scouts to kill all hostiles
now out, as until this is done they
may not expect peace nor safety for
their families nor animals. Lieutenant
Maus reports that there were eleven ln-
dams in the raiding party. One 81
them, a son Of the late notorious Chieg
Juh, was killed by Sanchez White, :
mountain chief who, with some scouts,
pursued the raiders. Another OF the
marauders was badly wounded. The
band now out said they would never
return to the reservation until they
had killed Chatto. The hostile Chi,
racahuas are endeavoring to recap
ture their families, now prisoners ct
Fort Bowie ana San Carlos. The dis,
sension which has sprung up among
members of the Chiracahua tribe will
have an important bearing on the set
Element Of the Indian war. Lieutensut
Maus returned to his command this
afternoon, making an unbroken ride Of
fifty miles to-day.

STEAMBOAT DISASTER.

frsabsful Explosion IN Allegheny River and
Loss or Life.
IBy telegraph u the Dispatch.l
PITTSBURGH, December 1.-The
tow-boat Irsn City was blown to pieces
this morning at about 2 o'clock while
stuck on bar at the head Of Kerr's
island in the Allegheny river. The
crew, numbering six. were blown into
the river. Engineer George Ashton
was instantly killed, Fred. Jackson was
fatally injured, and the others seriously
hurt. The vessel was burned to the
waters edge, and is totallo About
6 O'Clock last evening the Iron City in
running down the river was swung
on to the bar, where she went badly
aground just over the main pipe Of the
Philadelphia Gas Company. All the
evening and up to the time Of the ex-
plosion the vessel tried to back off into
deeper water. Shortly after 2 o'clock
FINAL effort was made to get off. The
engines were forced to their foil capa-
city, but the boilers could not stand the
pressure and collapsed. The concds-
sion from the explosion was terrific,
and awoke the upper end Of the two
cities. Pieces Of the vessel were blown
from the middle Of the river, where the
boat was grounded, TO the Allegheny
shore, seventy-five yards away. Part
Of the cabin alighted on the roof of the
Gerder tannery, directly opposite on the
Allegheny side. The water was shallow
and the crew, with the exception Of
Ashton and Jackson, easily reached the
bar. Within few moments after the
explosion the river banks and island
became crowded with people; the few
skifls that could be secured were at
once filled with eager crews Of rescuers,
who FASTENED to the scene Of the dis.
aster. The survivors were taken to the
Allegheny shore, where all possible
was done for them.
The accident was caused by natural
gas. The boat struck the gas-main
laid across the river and broke it, and
the gas took fire from the furnace,
causing the explosion. William Gail
braith was so severely wounded that he
will probably die. This makes the
total number injured seven:

Farmers National Congress Of the
United States met here to-day in annual
session with sixty delegates. President
Robert Beverly, of Virginia, in his adj
dress called attention to the depression
in prices in various products the ma
licious legislation regarding sheep hus-
bandry, and to the necessity for various
legal reforms. 1t asks for three mea-
sures for the benefit Of the agricultural
interests The creation Of the Secretary
Of Agriculture as a Cabinet officer

and the suppression Of pleuro-pneumo-

points out The folly of the appropriation
Of millions Of money to river and har-
Dor improvements without extending to
agriculturists, who comprise 81 per
cent. of the population. the benefits of
the signal service. The Congress is a
notable one in being composed Of
number of the wealthiest planters and
farmers Of the country.

says Shortly before o'clock this af-
ternoon, in Workman's cut, half mile
east Of Washington, on the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, local freight, east
bound, had started from the Washing
ton yards with orders to run to Finley
Vile. When in the cut mentioned it
came into collision with west-bound
through freight with terrific force, as
both were running at high rate of speed.
The track in the cut lies in curve, and
for this reason neither engineer
discovered the approaching train until
too late to prevent a collision. The
two engines rushed together in an iron
embrace, and the box-cars were piled
up and the track was covered with the
debris of the wreck. John Rider, Of
Washington, conductor Of the west
bound train, was instantly killed. The
remains are horribly mangled and
scalded. Frank Snyder. Of Piedmont,

In addition to these, every hand on the

NEw YORK, December 2.-For sew
eral months il has been known TO inti-
mate friends Of County CLERK James =.
ID. Crane, Of West Chester county, that
be was involved in very serious fiuan-
cial difficulty. This was first observed
by his checks going TO protest by the
score. His method was to draw .
check on the yoakers Bank and induce
some friend to cash it. When the check
came back he would have some clever
excuse ready and promise to fix it
right away. But he kept his promises
only occasionally. This style of doing
business soon brought him into disre-
puie financially, and be became unable
TO borrow. He next resorted to issuing
forged paper, in the shape Of notes
and mortgages, until he had Sc
cured between fifty and seventy-fiye
thousand dollars. and then fed. He
has been missing since Wednesday last,
but was seen in this city Friday night.
Crane had so many creditors that his
absence created suspicion, and quiet
investigation was begun which is not
yet finished. Enough is known, how
ever, to substantiate all the ugly ru-
mors about his criminal practices.
His victims include relatives and
persons of every class. He was
looked upon as clever. liberal
fellow. Crane is about thirty-ive
years old. He is the youngest son Of
Benjamin T. Crane, Of this city. who
was connected some years ago with the
Croton aqueduct in the capacity Of
engineer. He was renominated by the
Democrats for the office of county
clerk by reclamation in October and
elected by large majority at the No
vember election. He has wife and
child, whom he left behind.
