Terrible Accident on tho air Line.

GREENvILLE, August ga terrible
smash.up of the south bound train No.
90 on the Air Line Railroad occurred
three miles north of Wexford shortly
before o'clock this morning. The train
was considerably behind time and was
running, 1t is said, at speed of about
forty miles an hour. From what I can

known as Meeting House Curve, which
has long been feared by the engineers as
dangerous curve. the second class

track, and rearing party on end fell and
rolled down the steep embankment,
making two complete revolutions before
reaching the level. The ladies' coach
Immediately behind 1t was also throw
from the track and turned over on its
side. Two sleepers on the rear of the
train also jumped the track but were not
overturned. Conductor John Ransom,
who was in the second. class car ut the
time, received spinal injuries from which
he died at Weliord at o'clock this after.
noon. A negro man, name unknown,
received injuries that will probably prove
fatal. Two white men, names unlearned,
were seriously hurt, and eight other
passengers received wounds Of more rr
less severity, but mono of the latter seem
to have been dangerously hurt. Mr..
Charles F. Hoke, the we'll known com.
mercial traveller, was in the fret. class
coach at the time Of the smashup, and
received severe and painful bruises about
the head and hips. Mrs. Wilcox, of
Greenville, received painful bruises on
the head, aud Mr.. White Smith, of Spar.
tanburg, Is reported to have been SINH.
larly wounded. The accident Is described
as o mos. fearful and heartrendiug one,
and the escape of the passengers from
immediate aud awful death was indeed
miraculous. Great heroism Is credited
to Miss Mamie Law, of Spartauburg, aud
Mr.. Lee, one of tho passengers. who
had wonderful presence Of mind in he
great excitement following The fearful
catastrophe, and were of great service to
the wounded and terror stricken passen.
gers. 1t Is impossible TO obtain here the
full list of the wounded or the detailed
particulars. The accident caused the
stoppage of all trains on the road to-day
until this afternoon, when track around
the wreck was completed, and travel Is
now unobstructed. s.

LITTLE Rock, March S.-The successor
ship for the senate vacancy, created by Gar
lands acceptance of a cabinet portfolio, is
the chief topic aud the legislature has ex-
tended the session, which Tould otherwise
have expired, from the 18th to the 9th inst.
for the purpose of electng a successor,
balloting for which begins on the 18th
The following are avowed candidates:
First district, ex-Gov. James II. Berry, Will
lam W. Fishback of Fort Smith, a member of
the lower house, John j. Horner of Helena,
ex-senator j. D. Walker and Gen. Robert c.
Newton OF Little Rock. All the candidates
have entered the field with hopeful follow
ing, andan active canvass has begun. Dunn
and Berry, who it is thought will be the
leaders in the first ballot, are quartered in
the city. Each was defeated in the
senatorial race four weeks ago, in
which Berry withdrew at the Both ballot
and the election of James X. Jones resulted.
Berry's support numbered 36 and Dunn's
~ out of the 1877 joint ballots. Their friends
now claim they will enter the race with addi-
tional strength. Fishback is popular among
the masses, being author of the amendment
which repudiated $4,000, 600 of the alleged
fraudulent state Indebtedness. Newton is a
prominent attorney of Little Rock, Horner
is prominent business man standing at the
head of several manufacturing enterprises,
and is the principal owner Of the Arkansas
Central railroad. Walker was succeeded
in the senate on March by Jones He de-
clined to attempt to succeed himself but
enters this canvass with a considerable fol-
lowing and will make contest against Berry
and Fishback for the support of the North
west. The contest will likely be a protracted
struggle and section only reached at the
last hour. A canvass OF the situation at this
time indicates that the result of the first
ballot will be Berry 40, Dunn 80, Fishback
90 Newton Is, Horner 10, Walker 6.
If Col. s. W. Fordyce, Hot Springs mil
lionaire, would allow the use of his name in
connection with the senatorship it is quite
probable that be would come in at the end of
the race as the successful dark horse. The
colonel is an able inancier and q shrewd
politician, but his large business interests
prevent him from accepting Office Of any
kind.

Lincoln's Charges Against Hazcn.
special IN the Gloha

special 10 the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The charges and
specifications of Secretary Lincoln against
Gen. Hazen have been filed. They are tech
nical in their character. The charge is con-
duct to the prejudice of good order
and military discipline in violation of
the 62d article of war. The specifi-
cations are, first, that Gen. Hazen, knowing
that the secretary of war had decided in
September, 1888, that it was i'm
practicable to send an expedition to the re-
lief of Greedy in official publications took
issue with his superior and insisted not only
that such an expedition was practicable, but
it should be sent. Second, that the secretary
of war wrote letter to Hazen calling his at
tention to the violation of the rule and sug-
gested that he should keep that letter and all
knowledge Of its contents to himself, but
in March, 1885, Gen. HaZen caused state
that such letter had been receive aud re-
fected upon the secretary of war on account
of it, all of which is prejudicial to good
discipline. 1t is understood that Gen. Hazen
has written letter to the new secretary of
war asking that no steps be taken to dissolve
the court martial recently ordered to try that
official, it having been intimated that such
action would be taken by President Cleveland
and requesting that he may be tried in justice
to himself.

SKETCH OF LAMAR'S SUCCESSOR.
Gen: WalthaH One OF the Ablest Lawyers
and Most Brilliant Orators in the
South,

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March S.-The gentleman
who has been appointed to succeed Secretary
Lamar in the senate is Gen. Walthall. He
is man of note in e.ery capacity in
which he has been tried. He first
became known in the South as colonel Of
the Twenty-niLth tn Mississippi infantry early
in 1862. He was brigadier general, COM
manding the celebrated 'Dehards,'' q
Mississippi brigade which had something like
the reputation in the Tennessee army under
Gen. Johnston, that the old ''Stonewalr' bri-
gade attained in the army of Northern Vir-
ginia. In 1865 Gen. Walthall was made
major general for distinguished ability and
gallantry, aud at once took rank as one of
the most brilliant and plucky division fight
ers of the war. At one time he was seriously
considered as commander of the army Of
the Tennessee, and at that time Mr.. Davis was
very much inclined to give him that respon
sible position, but other counsels pre-
vailed, and graduate of West Point
of the war Mr.. Lamar and Gen.
Walthall entered into law partnership in
which the latter, owing to serious illness for
year of Mr.. Lamar, did all the work but
shared all profits with his sick friend and
partner. At present Gen. Walthall is attor-
ney for the New Orleans, Jackson & Great
Northern and Mississippi Central Railroad
companies. These corporations are owned
and operated by the Illinois Cen
trail and furnish it connection
to the gulf. Besides this important and val
liable position Gen. Walthai has very large
practice at The bar, perhaps the most lucra-
tive in the state. He is man of fine per-
sonG appearance, six feet two inches in
stature. He has figure almost like West
Point cadet and is as straight as one of the
Mississippi pines. He possesses voice
of wonderful compass and training, while in
exactness Of statement and felicity of.dictiou,
with just enough glow and fervor in his ora
tory to hold his audience, there are few men
his equal. AS a practical worker he will
probably be better senator than Lamar.

New YORK, March S.-Various plans for
the reorganization of the West Shore rail-
road have been under consideration for sew
eral weeks. The bondholders' committee, of
which j. B. Colgate is chairman, met yester-
day and resolved to submit a certain plan to
the bondholders. 1t is proposed to
try to effect a financial reorganiza-
ton, which shall respect the
rights of the stockholders and creditors,
who are not bondholders. 1t is proposed to
issue new series of first mortgage bonds to
an amount of perhaps $10.000,000. The
holders of the present first mortgage bonds
will be asked to exchange their bonds for
first preferred stock. The North River
Construction company will be asked to ac-
cept second preferred stock in settlements
of its large claim against the railroad
companies. The scheme also provides for
new issue of common stock to be ex-
changed for the old stock, the latter being
required to pay cash bonus of 10 or 20
per cent. There are some railroad men un-
usually well informed who allege that the
scheme of reorganization outlined above will
result advantageously to the Vanderbilt in
terest. 1t is not believed that Vanderbilt's
hand will be seen until after the reorganiza-
ton is completed. Then it is averred it
will be found that the West Shore road has
passed into the control of persons not antag-
onistic to the New York Central At the
bondholders' committee meeting resolutions
were passed recommending that the receivers
make some arrangements with the Buffalo,
New York & Philadelphia railroad for the
purpose of improving the West Shore ter
minal facilities at Buffalo. The West Shore
trains now run into the station of the Buffalo,

OF 3S3 trains, each train averaging fourteen
cars and each car containing 40 persons.
That makes total of "A, 4SO The southern
travel consisted Of Isl trains averaging .
cars each, with an average of 80 persons to

PROUD OF Villas.
Best Sentiment of Wisconsin Rejoices
Over His Appointment His
Power,

Special to the Globe.
MILWAUKEE, March S.-The appointment
of Col. Villas as member of Cleveland's
cabinet has brought great satisfaction and
pride to the better class of Democrats OF this
state. Indeed the better class of all parties in
Wisconsin feel qualification in any promo
ton that comes to Col. Villas. Among the
best clements of the people of this state there
is no man more thoroughly and gen.
timely popular than he. At the same
time his appointment to cabinet position
makes a change in the complexion of affairs
relating to probable federal appointments in
this state, especially appointments connected
with the postoffice department. While Col
Villas is thoroughgoing Democrat he is also
a man whose every movement is dictated by
the highest principles of honor. He has no
sympathy with or part in the methods of pol
iticians of the trickster class. The potent
influence which he will WELD in
the matter of federal appointments
in Wisconsin will not be in
harmony with the instincts of great ma
jority of his party here in making calculations
as 10 Tue appOln lmenlS III IniS Sldte. IL Has
been agreed that the factors would be Con-
gressmen Bragg and Rankin. Only two
Democrats were elected to congress from
this state. DR.. W. A. Anderson, chairman
of the Democratic state central committee,
Col. Villas, as member of the national Dem
ocratic committee and chairman of the con-
vention which nominated Cleveland, and
perhaps Alexander Mitchell, Hon. E. c.
Wall and few others were expected to have
control of affairs. In such combina-
tion Col. Villas would figure
only as one individual and
predominance of opinion and influence
would lie in the hands of men more in SYM
pathy with ordinary political methods. The
appointment of Col. Villas to the cabinet
changes all this. In the appointment of all
postal officials and employees Col. Villas will
of course be supreme authority and in the
matter of other federal appointments, he will
have great influence because of his nearness
to the head of the government. The result
is that there will be an entire remaking of
states in his state.
