Cured at Clapp's mill, operated by c.. E.

Engineer Timothy Crowly, in order to more

discovering that there was no water in the
gauge of the middle boiler. he turned it on,
and no sooner did the water touch the
boiler than it exploded with tremendous
force, carrying away a portion of the roof
and completely wrecking the foundations
of the boilers and engine. The wonder is
how the engineer escaped at all, but, though
severely scalded about the face and head,
a fatal result is not anticipated. unless he
inhaled the escaping steam, which is not
probable, as he was thrown In heap OF
sawdust. A boy employed about the

Held by a Woman.s Hand.

MRS. GREEN S POWER OVER A RAILWAY SYSTEM.
An Atlanta lGaJ special says: There is no
longer any doubt that Gen. E. II. Alexander is
in the race for the presidency of the Central
railroad system. His friends are organized, de-
termined and confident. 1t is said that the
block of stock owned by Mrs. Greene, of New
York, will control the election this year, as it
did when Gen. Alexander was beaten before.
A curious story Is told about the control of
this stock. Mrs. E. II. Greene, the richest
woman i'll America perhaps the richest
Central railroad stock. She is in the attitude
OF guerilla so lar as the warning factions are
concerned. The RaOul-AleXander fight two
years ago was SO close that Mrs Greene, with
could name the president. Overtures were
made to her for the power to vote the stock.
Az least, 1t Is said Mr.. RaOuls friends paid
Mrs. Greene $4,000 in cash for the privilege
OF voting her stock at the January election
The proxies thus Dough: elected MIR. Raoul and
defeated Gen. Alexander.
1t is still iurtner said, though perhaps on less
certain authority, that when the Greene
proxies were secured by Mr.. Raouls party, bets
amounting to $4,000 were made with a
friend OF Gen. Alexander and who believed
that Alexander would soon control the stock
1t is understood that Mrs. Greene's stock
holds the balance Of power in the present fight
wants TO sell the stock ITSELF She has priced it at
125. The market price OF the stock is about CO.
IL has ranged from 80 10 1O5 for the past few
months. The $4,000 received by Mrs. Greene
equal to 5per cent dividend. Ii she can force
"a sale now al 125, or > 125, 900 above the market
price OF the STOCK, it would represent its value
as voting factor in the coming race. II is

The Chicago knights.
THEY WILL PUT CANDIDATE IN THE FIELD
FOR MAYOR

THEY WILL PUT A CANDIDATE IN THE FIELD
FOR MAYOR.
A Chicago special to the Cincinnati ENQUIRER
says: The workingmen of Chicago intend to put
a candidate in the field for the mayoralty The
question is one Of such moment that the poll
ucians OF both the old parties are including the
movement in all OF their calculations. And well
they may. for the knights OF Labor exhibited
a strength on the I'd oil November that those
who take heed of the signs OF the times rather
opened their eyes at in establishment if not
alarm. The h. of l.. poied $4,000 in Cook
county, aud about 10000 in the city OF Chicago.
They elected a state senator and six representa-
tives, giving them twenty-siX votes in the ne xt
legislature, a sufficient number to give them
the balance of power in the election of a speaker
1t is claimed that the X. OF. L. OF Chicago will
not consent to daily with any other party, but
that they are determined TO put up their own
ticket and fight Tor Ii tooth and toe-nail. There
is this about it that is considered to be a sure
thing among betting men-vZ., the movement
will defeat The democratic nominee, and there
fore Carter Harrison will not be reelected. In
fact he il is said, the ditch in front of him
and will not attempt to jump it. He has made
up his mind to go TO Europe, and this will pre-
vent him from accepting the nomination.
In Chicago there are "A host of gamblers who
are worth from $2OO,OOO to 81 ,OOO,OOO When
IL comes to eiecting mayor they think MOTH
ing of putting up purse of $2OOUOO TO carry
item through. Allied with the gambling in
terest is the saloon interest, and the two make
a tremendous team. Harrison has always
been their man, and he has always given then,
q chance to do business under a sort OF protec-
ton that rebounds greatly to their profit. OF
course, the nomination OF Carter Harrison
would have the effect of welding the X. of l..
together more soIidly than any Thing else that
could well happen. Therefore Harrison is out
of the question. The next thing 10 consider is
whether the gambling and saloon men will
throw their influence and money in the way OF
any other candidate than a democrat? Ii by
any combination OF circums tances that infiu-
ence should go to the knights of Labor candi-
date there will be something more than a repe-
uton of the Henry George campaign. A Knight
of Labor will be elected mayor OF Chicago.

and lying between the Black Sea on the west
and the Caucasus on the north. The inhabie
tants, some 10000 only i'm number, are allied
to the Georgians in blood. and are mostly at
tached to the Greek church. Prince Nicholas
In 1886 sold his birthriyht TO the Russian gov
eminent, under the customary pressure, Tor
100000 roubles, but was permitted TO retain
his title, and was made an aide-de-camp on the
cars staff, with the rank OF captain. In 1879
he married daughter of Count Alberberg, for
many years at the head of the imperial house
hold OF Russia. According to one OF the re-
ports in circulation, the prince is much younger
after their marriage. Prince Nicholas Is de-
scriOed as being a careless, good-natured man
OF Berlin as well AS OF ST. Petersburg, but un-
popular in Austria.
MORE LIGHT ON AUsrRIA's ATTITUDE.
Count Andrassy, in his speech in the delega-
lions at Pesth yesterday, said he believed
that the Austro-German alliance was the best
guarantee OF European peace. but that the char
acter of the alliance was lost when il became
imperative to consider Russian interests i'm the
Balkan question. Herr Tisza's program had
secured for Austria the support OF Germany
under all circumstances. The existing govern
ment in Bulgaria was the lawful government.
IT was only needed TO settle the question OF
fusion with ROumeiia. Russia, in his opinion,
had no special prerogatives in Bulgaria.
Count kalnoky explained that his statement
on Saturday referred especially To the fusion
question. Russia was under an equal obiiga-
tlon with the other signatory powers TO assist
IN the settlement OF that question. He fully
agreed with Count Andrassy that the autonomy
OF Bulgaria and the provisions OF the Berlin
treaty must be maintained. Nevertheless.
Russias relations with Bulgaria were OF great
Importance for the latter's future. Count An
Grassy declared that he was satisfied with the
explanation.
General Kaulbars threatens to leave Bulgaria
unless the government dismiss the command
ant at PhllippOpOlis who arrested Russian

larities. The jury will have its hands full for q
week or more. Witnesses have been summoned
from several counties, and frauds Of many
kinds are charged. John H. Counselman and

this county. They are the inspectors from the
fourth and twenty-fOurth wards, the returns
from which have been tempered with. These
returns are in the possession of the federal
court, and will be used in evidence. The COM
m1ttee OF one hundred will aid the district at
torney In the prosecution, and will employ an
attorney for that purpose. Witnesses from De

Argument I'm the WilsOn.MOen Case.
NO LIGHT SHED ON THE MYSTERY BY THE op-

NJ SdED ON 1SEEht b1 THE OF
POSING COUNSEL.
Argum ents in the Wison-Moen case were
opened before Judge Carpenter in the United
States circuit court in Boston yesterday Rob-
ert Morse making the plea for Philip NJ. Moen,
the defendant. He opened by referring to the
claim made by Wilson that Moen owed him a
large sum compensation for the services OF
wilson In settling various suits for breach of
promise, but contended that, according to Will
sons own admission, he had received sums
very much larger. 1t was argued that the case
on the part of Mr.. Wilson rested solely on his
own testimony, and that on every occasion
when he came in contact with any scrap of
document ry evidence he was shown TO be full
of contradictions.
The defense commended that the position of
Wilson toward MOen was one OF a blackmailer
taking advantage OF the weakness OF the latter
in cOnSentlng TO pay sum OF money for the
cohcealment OF an act with which he had
nothing TO do. A letter pLrporting to have
been written by Wilson demanding money
was cited in proof of the claim that he was a
blackmaier, in which 1t was set forth that
Wilson threatened to hire his brothers to
The fact that Moen could have been induced
to pay the large sums which he did in late wears
was In part accounted Tor by the natural desire
to avoid the odium OF having paid the original
sum to a biackmailer.
George y.West, of Providence, made the argu-
ment for Wilson. Alter speaking of the great
business ability Of Moen and saying that ap to
this time he had never met his master, West

with, and said they were here ready and anx-

different stories that they did not know what
he might cOncoct next. No patent was ever
owned or sold by Wilson. Moen had that paper
made SO that he could tell the people OF Worces-
ter that he had business with Wilson. 1t was
another piece Of anufactured evidence. Moen
did not, he says, tell the whole truth at the pre-
