-Four Dead Men Found at the Scene of q
Saw Mill Explosion.
BLOOMSBURY, Pa, Dec. 3.-Berwick was
the scene of a shocking boiler explosion
last evening. Four men were killed and
a saw mill plant, including the stable
and surrounding buildings, was burned.
The accident occurred when a great
outburst of steam at Adams saw mill
Yves followed by terrific report. Crowds
of people at once hurried to the scene.
Nothing remained of the little hamlet
that had been built for the numbering
men and its four inhabitants were strewn
about the woods.
Ira Gruver, one of the employees, was
found 30 feet from where the boiler house
stood, horribly mangled. His brother
was found in another direction, also
mangled badly, while their companions
lay in the saw pit without mutilation,
but dead. Examination of their bodies
showed them to have sustained fractures
of the skull and internal injuries from
which they must have died almost imme-
diately.
VIII at caused the explosion il q xnys.
terry, but it is supposed to have resulted
from the failure of the fireman to keep
water in the boiler, which, it 1t claimed,
was quite new and in first-class condi.

They May Return to England and Resign
Their Seats.
CHICAGO, Dec. St is semi-officially
stated that in the event of Parnell being
sustained all the Irish ENJOYS except
Harrington will at once return to Eng
land and probably resign their seats in
the House of Commons. s.sssEsHf
Harrington has had numerous advices
from London during the morning and
states that their general purport is to
the effect that Parnell is playing win
ming game. Even Dillon and O'Brien
admit the way Parnel handled the con-
ference has greatly improved his pros
poets and that it is not unlikely that he
will win.
John Dewey received a cablegram from
Sheriff Clancy of Dublin urging him to
use his influence for Parnell, as Glad
stone is trying to sacrifice the unbribable
Harrington received a cablegram from
John Redmond and Mr.. O'Kelly, reading
as follows: "If you want to save Parnell
and the Irish Parliamentary party come
here at once" Mr.. Harrington is in a
state of doubt as to what he ought to do
He said to reporter: I have not yet
decided what shall do. I will not re-
turn home at once. I will remain with
my colleagues here to see if we cannot
go ahead and finish the great work we
have in hand"

THE ELECTIONS BILL
Called Up by the Republican
Senators for Debate.
OPPOSITION BY THE DEMOCRATS.
The Bill Likely to Pass by Strict Party
Vote

Secretary WINDOWS Report Shows the
Operations Ofthe Treasury for the Past
Ysar-AuthOrizIng the Inspection Of
Cattle and Hogs-SenatOr Stanford Not
u Candidate for the vIce-Presidency.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-The federal
Elections bill was called up in the Senate
by Mr.. Hoar, and Mr.. German immedi-
ately demanded the yeas and nays. The
yeas and nays were taken and resulted
as follows: Yeas Al, nays 30-a strict
party vote. So the election bill was taken
mp and the clerk began to read it. The
reading continued until the chair laid
before the Senate the unfinished business,
which was the House bill to adjust &C
counts of laborers under the Eight-Hour
law.
Mr.. Hoar moved to proceed with the
consideration of the Election bill. Mr..
German rose to debate the proposition,
but Mr.. Hoar made the point of order
that it was not debatable. The chair
sustained the point.
Mr. Butler asked if the adoption of Mr..
Hoar's motion would not defeat the Eight
Hour bill. and Mr.. Hoar replied that it
would be defeated only by unreasonable
procrastination of the Election bill.
The Clerk having resumed the reading
of the Election bill, the Democrats with
drew their objection to the proposition to
| dispense with the reading of the House
bill, and so the House bill was laid aside
| and the Senate bill was read at length.
The Democrats propose to debate the
bill fully, but the general belief is that
| it will pass.

Minister Lincoln Was No, Present

CHICAGO, Dec 3-Robert T. Lincoln,
Minister to England, denies the state
ment cabled to London that he attended
the recent Irish demonstration held at
at Battery d and that he acted as one of
the vice-presidents on the occasion. He
received an invitation to be present at
the meeting but did not attend. He
could not, he said, commit so grave an
indiscretion as to attend meeting of
such character while occupying his
present position toward the English gov
ornment. Mr.. Lincoln will start for
England at the end of this month. 49,.

THE FARMERS ALLIANCE



National Harmony
OcALA, Fla, Dec. 3.-The National
Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union
met at noon. There was almost full
attendance.
The Alliance membership is shown to
be growing rapidly, and the finances OF
the order are in good shape. President
Folks address is a long and mastery
review of Alliance movements, and
treats of Alliance relations to the
country, the dangers of the Govern
ment and the way to avoid them.
President Polk congratulated the AL
lance on its achievements since the last
meeting and then reviewed the causes of
agricultural depression. The President
declared that the depression is an
anomaly to the student of industrial
progress.
The president urged that additional
organizers be sent at once to Oregon,
Washington, Ohio, New York, New Jer-
sey, Arizona and other States. Among
his recommendations was one that an
organization be formed to be known as
the National Legislature, composed of
the national president and the presidents
of all State Alliances, their duty being
to look after legislative reform demanded
by the Alliance both in State legislation
and Congress. He deprecated sectional
ism and closed with an eloquent appeal
for national harmony.
Glover, of Kansas, is spoken of as the
candidate for president of the Alliance,
though it is thought likely that Polk
will be reelected.

PLAYING FOR A FORTUNE
An Actor An the Yonkers Mystery Arrosta,
for Forgery.

An ACTOR An the YonkerS Mystery Arrested
for Forgery.
New York, Dec. 8.-Another leaf has
been turned in the the strange story Of
Broker Perrin II. Summers alleged
Identification of q suicide at the Getty
House, Yonkers, last October, in the ar
rest OF Perrin on a warrant obtained by
George r. Phoebus, reporter, and
Francis S. Turner, lawyer, on charge
of forgery.
From all accounts, when Sumner
identified the man who killed himself
with morphine as George h Edgar, q
wealthy English chemist, the broker
was playing for a large. stake. Suisse
quently Sumner went back on his
Identification and told many conflicting
stories.
The suicide occurred October rs and
the man who took his own life had regis.
tered at the hotel as George Smith and
had left a note to the effect that the in.
humanity OF others had prompted the
act.
was Edgar from whom he claimed to
have received letters since the suicide.
1t now appears that he wanted to secure
Edgar's portion of $500, 900, Edgar being
an outcast, though On eldest son.
= Early in November Sumner endeavored
to interest Turner in securing Edgar'l
money, telling the lawyer, it is alleged,
that if he could show will made in his
favor and q power of attorney dated back
a year he could sue for Edgar's money in
England. Turner pretended to fall in
with the scheme and introduced Phoebus
as fellow schemer. Sumner ther
showed Turner and Phoebus power Of
attorney that bore a forged signature
and his arrest followed. He was locked
up in police headquarters.
