SUICIDE OF A YOUTH.

Disappointed Love and Shame OF His
Mother the Probable Cause.
New YORK, Sept 26.-Victor l. John.
son, nineteen years old, shot himself
through the heart at 100 Hendricks
street, brooklyn, early this morning.
Last night, shortly before eleven o'clock,
he entered his home and went directly
to his room. He lived with his grand
father, R. r. Wheeler. The young man
spent an hour or more in his room be-
fore he Invested himself of his coat, vest
and white shirt Carefully unbuttoning
his undershirt and turning it back 80
that the spot over his heart could be
plainly seen he went to bureau drawer
and took out q 22-caliber revolver. This
he pressed close to his heart and then
pulled the trigger. He fell like log
and died instantly. His grandfather
and the other people in the house heard
the shot and the fall The boy was
dead when they entered the room.
Mr.. Wheeler reported the matter at
the police station. He knew Of no cause,
he said, and he reiterated this when o
reporter called on him. He denied that
the boy had had any trouble in his life
or any love affair. There are reports,
however, to the contrary, and that the
youth was much depressed on account
of the dissolute life Of his mother.

GREAT FIRE.
The Chicago House of Fowler Bros, De-
stroyed BY Fire.

The Chicago House of Fowler Bros. De-
stroyed BY Fire.
CHICAGO Sept 29.-Early yesterday
morning, after four hours hard work,
the firemen got control OF the fire that
almost wholly destroyed the immense
plant of the Anglo-Amerlcan Packing
Company. The fire which began at las
a. m. wholly destroyed, leaving the
walls only standing the packing house
proper. Two warehouses Immediately
adjoining and other parts Of the estab-
lishment were almost as completely de-
stroyec. Work is completely suspended
and 1, 500 employees are idle. The own
ers' rough estimate of the loss is $780,
900 and upwards.
All day the firemen worked with the
flames, which, although under control
and not to be seen from the outside of
the big buildings. were no less doing
the greatest damage inside. The nature
of the contents of the buildings and the
insidious manner in which the flames
ate their way from one point to another
through supposed freproof walls
makes 1t difficult to place an accurate
estimate on the loss. An investiga-
ton showed the damage to be the total
destruction Of the packing house proper.

OF almost 81, 600, 600. or about 5000, 900

President Fowler does not believe
any of the product will be marketable
nor did Secretary Stobo
The general opinion Is that the loss
will not fall short OF 1000 900. which
will make the fire the most disastrous
one since the burning Of the warehouse

A TERRIBLE WRECK.

A Boy Operators Mistake Causes Fright~
ful Wreck and tho KILLING OF Eight Mon
on the Baltimore q Ohio Road.
EVANSVILLE, O., Sept 29-One Of the
worst freight wrecks in the history Of
Baltimore & Ohio railroad occurred ten
miles west OF here at midnight Satur-
day night Eight men were killed and
one terribly injured, and property to
the amount Of $3.50 900 destroyed.
The wreck was caused by the failure
Of Francis Keelty, operator ut Black
Hand, to deliver orders to an east bound
freight to sidetrack at that station until
west bound freight passed.
The two trains collided on o sharp
curve just outside OF dense wood, and
neither engineer saw the other train
until within few yards Of it
The engineer and fireman on the east
bound train jumped, the latter escaping
uniniured, but the former, John Kemp,
Of Newark, had leg cut of near his
body, and is not expected to live
The engineer and fireman Of the west
bound train were instantly killed, the
former being terribly mangled by the
splintered cars which wero rained into
the tender His blood and brains were
scattered over the ground for several
feet around. The fireman was caught
between the engine and tender and
crushed to pulp. When taken out it
was roasted by the fire from the en-
gines
The engines crashed together with
awful force and the freight cars to the
number OF twenty-five were piled up to
the height OF twenty-five or thirty feet.
Eight men were killed as follows:
John Buckingham, engineer; William
Firestone, fireman; Freeman Keller,
brakeman; John Cochran, residence un-
known; Ben Smart brakeman, Gratiot;
Glen Bash, GAINESVILLE; George w. Stone.
burger, GAINESVILLE; Tom McCrary; one
unknown.
John Kemp had his leg cut of and
Fireman Wilson hand mashed. Trains
are run by way Of the Panhandle be-
tween GAINESVILLE and Newark.
Those not employed on the train were
were beating their way from Columbus
RThe dea,r were removed to an empty
car as fast as recovered and taken to
Newark for preparation for burial A
large force of men were at work all day
clearing the track ofdebris.
Operator Keelty saw his mistake too
late and telegraphed to the operator
here that there would be wreck pretty
soon and left his post He is mere
boy. He has not yet been found
The colliding engines are so firmly
locked and interviewed together that it
seems impossible to separate them.
Twenty-Five car loads Of wire nails,
oats, corn, -four, lumber and many other
articles lie in confused ruin. The inn
mediate financial loss to the company
will be not less than $3.50, 0O0 1t is the
most destructive wreck that ever oc-
Cured on this division of the road.
There was also a collision Of two pas
senger trains on the Baltimore & Ohio.
east of GAINESVILLE, in which two ex-
press cars were demolished, and Engin-
eer John Wheeler and Baggagemaster
Ed Murdoch had both legs broken.
This collision was due to disobedience

and rates OF the present law were made

and rates OF the present law were made
In these the committee concurred.
In the liquor schedule the Senate
made increases on the various forms Of
wines and liquors The House rates
were restored except on champagne and
spirits, leaving still wines and malt
liquors ut tho existing rates OF duty.
The conferees agreed to the Senate
reciprocity and retaliation amendment
making but one change, which was In
the date-made January, 1892, instead
Of July next
On the changes made In the agricult-
ural schedules the conferees' report
says: 'In the agricultural schedule the
House rates are mainly retained. Garden
seeds have been reduced from 40 per
cent, as proposed by the House, to 20
per cent. the rate substituted by the
Senate, and turnip seed, which the SEN
ate placed en- the free list, transferred
to the dutiable list On oranges,
lemons and lines, which the House
made dutiable Mt double the present
rates in order to afford protection and
encouragement to the planters Of Cali
fornia and Florida, the Senate reduced
the rates some what above the present
law. The House conferees yielded re-
luctantly to this reduction. An amend
ment was added to that Of the Senate
imposing an additional duty OF 30 per
cent. on the packages in which oranges,
lemons and lines are imported.
The paragraphs inserted by the Sen.
ate imposing o discriminating duty OF
10 per cent on tea, the product Of
countries east OF the Cape Of Good Hope,
were struck out
Tho administrative section relative
to imported articles being forbidden
entry where the business mark Of do
nestle manufacture is simulated, reads
as follows rs adopted in conference:
ION and after March l, 1891, no article
OF imported merchandise which shall
copy or simulate tho name or trade
mark OF any domestic manufacture or
manufacturer shall be admitted to entry
at any custom house in the United
States"
Tho conferees in their report speak.
ing Of the effect OF the bill on the rev.
enues, say they do not believe that
there is any material difference between
House and Senate bills in the matter Of
estimated reduction in the dutiable
schedules - namely 500 600. 900 - and
their action has not materially affected
that estimate except in the restoration
OF the internal revenue provisions OF
the House and on that point they say:
'For the year ended June 80, 1890. the
receipt from special taxes on the class
of persons to be relieved by the bill
were Sl,515, 4s1, from taxes on
tobacco 1925, 1872 and from
snuff s7S7, 7Sl. BY the passage of the
bill the reduction in revenue from to-
bacco will be 81. 5sl, $40, and from snuff
S1s4 4S3, making from these two sources
an aggregate OF S4,765,SOS. Adding
these figures to the reduction which
would follow in the abolition OF special
taxes would make the total reduction in
the internal revenue receips S6,2s1, 3SA
The probable reduction by the customs
schedule will DO about $50, 900, 900,
which would give an'aggregate reduction
by the bill OF about 500, 900, 900.
