The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1886-04-24

Some 300 to 400 men advanced toward the
yards Arriving there, they swarmed into
the wards and persuaded the men at work
to desert their posts. The crowd remained
in the yard for some time, and although
considerable excitement prevailed, no vio-
lence was resorted to.
Just at this time, however, the Louisville
and Nashville freight train was slowly pas
sing, guarded by eight deputy sheriffs,
armed with Winchester rifles. In the mean
time crowds of men, women and children
had congregated on Broadway, where the
Louisville and Nashville tracks cross the
street, and also upon the Broadway bridge,
which spans CahOkia creek, and in the open
space to the east. just as the train reached
Broadway crossing trouble began. The
crowd on the bridge began to yell and jeer
at the officers and it is asserted stones
were thrown, which struck two or three OF
them, and it is also said that a pistol was
discharged. The deputies Immediately
Ieveled their rifles and fired two volleys into
the crowd on the bridge, with fatal effect,
four men being killed and one woman
mortally wounded.
Three more militia companies from
Springfield and one from Carlinville came
in about midnight. The Louisville and
Nashville freighthouse is now guarded by
troops and company will no doubt be
sent to the Cairo Short Line.

General wolseIey,s views.

Lord Wolseley, in a speech, said that the
English Empire had been built and pre-
served through the valor and endurance of
its soldiers and sailors, directed by able
statesmen. Hitherto it had been their lot
to defend the country against foreign foes,
but now they were called upon by the peo-
pie of England to do the duty of trampling
under foot enemies more serious, because
enemies within the civil boundaries. He
called upon the English nation to say
Stand off to any one, whoever he might
be, who should dare to try and break or
dismember the Empire, thereby ruthlessly
destroying it. The speech received deafen-
ing cheers.

THE DEBATE.
what TreveIyan Had to say.

When the applause had subsidized George
Otto Trevelyan, who recently resigned the
position of Secretary for Scotland, after
eulogizing Mr.. Gladstone's Grafton, pro-
ceeded to say that he interpOsed thus early
in the debate in order to explain the reason
of his resignation. He resigned with ex-
IRENE conjunction and regret, although
the step then finally decided upon was
taken with neither doubt as to its propriety
nor the least hesitation. He had joined
the Cabinet because, as he considered, at
that time to have remained outside would
have been tantamount to a confession that
the Liberal party was a Home Rule party.
This was a confession which he should
never be willing to make. He could never
consent to such a scheme as Mr.. Gladstone
had proposed. He had done his best to
prevent the Liberals from identifying them
selves with what he regarded as neither for
the welfare nor the benefit of the country.
Not longer ago than last June the whole
Cabinet was of the same opinion as him
self. What was it, he would like to know,
that had happened since to change them
The only security, he urged, that Parlia-
ment would have, according to Mr.. Glad
ston's plan, for the money they would be
called upon to vote for the purchase of the
Irish landlords estates would be the will
ingness of the Irish farmers to keep up their
payments How much dependence could
be placed upon that ?
The Speaker, at this point, Interrupted
Mr.. Trevelyan, and reminded him that no
land bill had yet been submitted.
Mr. Trevelynan proceeded with his speech
by asking How long would it be, if the
measure that had been submitted should be-
come law, before Irish contributions to
the imperial exchequer would be denounced

Troops to be Concentrated.

to the scene in very quick time.

ARTHUR SERIOUSLY ILL.
Grave Fears That He VIII Never Leave
His Room again.

Ex-President Arthur is seriously ill. His
sister, Mrs McElroy of Albany, is con-
stantly at his bedside, and his physician,
DIR. George Peters said last night There
has been no improvement in the ex-Presi-
dents condition for the past three weeks
1 prefer not to discuss the state of his
health" R. G. MeCord said yesterday :
81 have hopes of Arthur's ultimate re-
covery, but he has been a very i'll man;
His family are now hoping that he will
rally sufficiently to permit them to take INN
away from the city. They had planned a
trip to European watering place, but time
alone will tell whether Arthur will be able
to bear the fatigue incidental to the passage
across the Atlantic. His stomach is worn
out and refuses to perform its office. Dur
ing the crisis in the disease DR.. Peters was
in constant fear lest kidney trouble would
set in. The ex-President's system has run
down, and he is in an enfeebled state, al
most amounting to complete postration"

The presence of the military in St. Louis
had restoring effect. The fires destroyed
between twenty and thirty loaded cars
The greatest damage occurred at the Cairo
Short Line yard, about one mile from the
relay depot, where probably fifteen cars
were destroyed, and the flames for time
threatened the destruction of the one or
two hundred cars in the immediate vicinity.
Three companies of troops are stationed at
the Louisville and Nashville, and Cairo
Short Line yards. The main body OF
troops, beyond the few sentries stationed at
the railroad switches, remain in the vicinity
of the relay depot. 1t transpires that a
Young man named Andrew Jones, a Knight
of Labor, was shot and is not expected to
live. He will make the eighth person killed

FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
A Train Falls over an Embankment
Two Hundred Feet High

A report from Greenfield, Mass, says a
terrible disaster occurred on the Fitchburg
Railway, the eastbound passenger train 60
ing over an embankment 200 feet high. Six
bodies have already been taken out of the
ruins, and it is not known how many others
were killed. The train was the Eastern ex-
press, and consisted of baggage car,
smoking car, mail car and two ordinary
passenger cars. Only three men have thus
far been found who escaped injury, and
they set the number of passengers all the
way from % to 100. No doubt half dozen
were killed outright while falling and as
many more were fatally injured. The loco
motive is a complete wreck, but remains on
the track, while its tender is down the bank.

The center of interest in transcontinental
matters, is the proposed action of the
Pacific Mail Company. The overland COM
panies have reached a point where they
practically agree among themselves, but are
at loggerheads with Pacific Mail. The lat
ter company insists on having a subsidy Of
500, 600 per month or nothing, while the
overland companies want to give only $70,-
600. Pending the agreement with the
Pacific Mail, the rates on overland routes
will not be advanced, and the position on

A number of prominent Irishmen IN
Washington, whose homes are IN different
parts of this country, met and resolved to

buns, identical in all respects. In these
albums they propose to collect the editorials
of American newspapers published since
Gladstone's announcement in the House OF
Commons. For this purpose they desire
every newspaper published in cities in the
United States having a population OF 10
900 and upwards to send two copies OF their
issues containing editorial comments upon
Gladstone's speech to j. D. O'Connel,
Washington. Such newspapers as are not
