special TO the Republican says in regard
to The accident on the Fitchburg road:
The train was running about 20 miles per
hour. All the cars left the track, owing to
the roadbed being washed out and were pre-
clpitated down the bank nearly POO feet into
the Greenfield river. The engine went over
on the rails out all the rest of the train, in
cluding the tender, went down the bank. 1t
would be hard to find worse place for the
accident. The track winds alongside the
Deertieid river and it is nearly 200 feet to
the river. The cars were badly smashed and
to add to the horrors of the scene, three OF
them almost at once caught fire. Those of
the passengers who were not hurt rendered
great aid 10 the passengers. Three dead
bodies were taken from the wreck at IL
O'Clock, but it is not known who they were.
Besides these. two children of II. G. Little

hibitory Amendment Before the Peo-
pie.
PROVIDENCE, April I


The state election is in progress today, with
good weather throughout the state, and the
prospect is that the vote will be larger than
usual The chief issue on the state ticket is
tor the office of attorney general, where Col.
|. z. Colt, republican nominee, is opposed by
Col. Edwin Melcher, the nominee of the dem
ocratic and paohibitory parties, and whose
name is also upon the general ticket with
other republican nominations. The contest
here will be close. Next to this the vote for
the constitutional amendment, prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of alcoholic liquors as
beverage, creates the greatest interest.
Friends of prohibition have conducted very
active canvass for fortnight past, and the
result is seen in the very large vote in ap-
proval of the amendment already reported.

condition of the Indians and Indian affairs
Three of the members are to be detailed from
officers of the army and the others to be ap-
pointed from civil life or detailed from off,
GERS of the interior department.
Various amendments were adopted and
pending the action the morning hour expired.
Debate on the silver bill wus then resumed
and Mr.. Bland entered motion to recommi,
the bill, which motion will not be voted on
till the close of the debate. He then pro-
ceeded with his argument in favor of free
coinage of silver and gave resume of the
circumstances attending the demonstration
of silver in 1878. He controverted in detail
of the opponents of free coinage and ridiculed
the prophecy that such coinage would drive
gold from the country. He contended that
free coinsge would give to silver the same
value as gold at a ratio of l6 to l. 1t was
absurd to think Germany or France would
dump their silver into this country for the
reason the ratio of silver to gold was only
l53 to l. The production of the mines Of
the country left little margin for coinage
after the amount used for manufacturers was
deducted. Whoever thought that free coin
age was going TO make money cheap was
mistaken. The silver question should be
settled at once, the uncertainty about it was
time.
In conclusion, Mr.. Bland said if he didn't
believe in free coinage he would not believe
in any coinage, and no man could support
himself before the country on the present
law. He never advocated it. He had taken
it simply as a compromise and as being better
than no law at all. He advocated it today
and stood by II because he believed in free
coinage. The idea of making metallic money
of full legal tender qualities and then
limiting its coinage was an anomaly; it
was an outrage on creditors and a disturbance
to the business interests OF the country
Laughter.
Mr.. McComas, of Maryland, thought a
single gold standard would prove injurious
A double standard of gold and silver is bene-
fetal to all nations, but this country could
not set the value of silver to the whole world
and free coinage of silver could not be safely
provided for till other great nations would
cooperate in the movement.
Mr. Bayne, of Pennsylvania favored the
suspension of silver coinage, and strongly
denounced the proposition to open mints to
the free coinage OF silver.
1t was agreed that a vote should be taken
on the bill at 80 tomorrow.
The House then at O'Clock took recess
until I.
The debate on the silver bill was continued
during the evening session. Seven mem
bers on the floor and an equal number in the
galleries composed the audience that was
called to order by the speaker.
