The Cow-catehers We're Smashed.
What might have boen fatal col
lision wrs narrowly averted at Aliens
vile Thursday morning last by the
timely action of an engineer. Nos.
l and 4, north and south bound ex-
press trains, met at that point. The
south bound train had arrived
but failed to side track, when No 4
came laundering in. Owing to the
dense fog The engineer of the moving
rain cid not see his danger until
within about thirty yards Of the other
engine. He reversed his engine and
spilled the air brake to its full ca
,acity, which greatly slackened the
'peed before the collision. No one
vas hurt, but all were well shaken up.
The track was torn up for some dis
ance and the two trains were delay
d each about FIVE hours. Several
'ersons from this city were passengers
a tho north bound train, among them

THE MEETING FRIDAY NIGHT,

AT the conference meeting held d
the Court House Friday night, a
agreement was arrived at that secur ],
peace and harmony in the party rank
and the threatened disruption wa
averted. The meeting was organize,
by tho election.of Mr.. Nat Gather
Chairman, and Mr.. j. Sol Fritz Secre
toy.
Mr.. Meacham briefly explained thu
steps he had taken as Chairman of the
Democratic Committee to organize fol
the coming campaign. The Auxiliary
Committee appointed was chosen with
special reference TO work and they had
been ongagcd in the work assigned
them for several weeks. He had sim
ply done what he thought TO be his
duty and was satisfied that he had not
acted without authority. He had con-
suited with Messrs Brown and Dalton
in an informal manner about the COM
mitteemen for their districts. The on
ly reason he did not consult with the
other committeeman, Mr.. Wood, was
because Mr.. Perry had volunteered to
organize the third ward, the one in his
district, early in the fall He dis
claimed any intention to treat that
gentleman with discourtosy. The ap
pointments were not made to bestow
honorary positions, but in some wards
great difficulty had been experienced
in finding mer capable and willing to
do the work required. He regret Q
exceedingly that he did not know
that Mr.. Wood desired 10 assist in
these troublesome duties.
His right to act in city matters
having been disputed, the question
had been referred to the Chairman of
the State Central Committee. That Of
licial had replied by wire, sustaining
him fully and the telegram was read,
which was as follows:
LOUISVILLE, Nov. IA.

rats of Hopkinsville desire the Com

will be increased, say one additional
rom each voting precinct. The Central
Committee urges the Importance of
'ontinued party organization and par
y harmony.
JNo. B. CAsrLEMAN, Chairman.
Mr.. Meacham closed by expressing
desire for harmony and a willing
less to leave the matter of endorsing
lis efforts to the good sense OF the
'eople.
Mr.. Wood then made lengthy
xplanation OF his side of the
He concluded by de-
laring that he was satisfied with the
appointed and only OBJ /;

ointed and not elected and that If I

There establishments.
How surprisingly ono country grocery
store" resembles another, 1t is as ii
they were ell Intentionally modelled
after given pattern. Dry goods, chiefly
calicoes, for rural DANES and 6-mscls,
always occupy the shelves on tho left;
crockery, tinware and barrelei goods in
tho rear; miscellaneous foods and othor
articles on the shelves to tho right, and
near tho door q gla93-covered case full
OF motions" OF all sorts. Tho variety.
of wants supplied by such ''storo" is
simply marvellous A representative Of
the Washington Star happened into
one tho other day in Village down the
.river. and, while negotiating for some
paper and envelopes, pen, ink and pos
tago stamps. amused himself with talk
ing note of some of tho things offered
for salo.
Tho "notion" case alone was small
museum. Among other articles in it
were tooth-brushes, cologne, carpenters
pencils, back hair combs, thimbles,
sleeve-buttons, watch keys, bay rum,
spcctacles, shirt studs, rubber nipples
for babies bottles, crochet needles,
pocket mirrors. scissors and violin
strings. Also, in tho Same case were
banjo strings, fishing tackle, knives,
babies rubber rings, jew's-h arps,
mouth organs, tooth-powdcrs, violin
rosin, ginger cakes, prize pack
ages containing candy and jewolry,
tin horns and few yards OF lace.
On the other shelves bchind were
shirts, collars and cuffs and neckties; also
straw and other hats. many boxes full Of
shoes, backing and brushes. Beyond tho
shelves full OF calicoes wore croclzory.
brass ware, tin ware, Irvine for making
seines, lamp-shades and chimneys, glass
ware, canvas for sails, lamps, coffee,
grinders, carpenters tools, molasses,
vinegar and liquors, padloclcs, popcorn,
boxes of roasted peanuts, paints and
oils, toethpicks and ice skates. Around
on tho othor side woro patent medicines,
chewing tobacco, cigars, powder and
shot, wash-tubs and boards, soap. blu
ing, school crayons, states and books.
All sorts of canned goods, preserves
and pickles were in stock; also sauces,
confectionery, clocks, castor oil, honey,
cough drops, mustard plastors, porous
plasters, gluo, nails, rope and pills.
There was even supply Of roady-mado
clothing, hkewise salt, meats and rat
poison. f ........ .-..
This will give slight notion Of the
stock of typical country. grocery.
Such an establishment must havc every
thing that anybody can by any possible
lily want. and much Of tho stuff it
doalS III lies on tho shelves for years
before the right customer comes along.

BUILDING THE NEW NAVY.
The Naval Appropriation Bill Com
pleted-Mr. Boutelle's Ideas.

The naval appropriation bill was practically
completed by the House naval committee to-
day and will be reported to the House the first
of next week. Mr.. Boutelle's proposition for
continuing the work of demonstrating the navy
was adopted practically as outlined in THE
STAR. Mr.. Boutelle says that his idea is to
carry out logically the policy that has been
followed since the reconstruction of the
navy was begun, building first the
smaller vessels and advancing step by
step as our contractors and artisans
demonstrate their ability to do the work He
thinks that three heavy battle ships of the first
class are as many as can be constructed speed
lily and advantageously at one time. He takes
the construction of these vessels rs the next
step in the evolution of the new naval con-
struction.
With the policy of this country to stand on the
defensive and not to venture out for conquest
it was thought wise to make these vessels suit
able for defensive work along the coast. and
they are to be constructed with heavy armor
and limited capacity for coal They will be
capable of doing heavy battle in breaking
blockades or attacking foreign war vessels
which approach our coast. but cannot carry
coal enough for aggressive action in foreign
ports. When a sufficient number of these
vessels are constructed for the defense of our
coast Mr.. Boutelle thinks it will be time
enough to begin the construction of q few bat
tie ships designed to cruise the high seas or to
engage foreign enemies in their own ports.
The cruisers provided for are heavier and
more capable of doing heavy battle than any
of those which have thus far been constructed.
The plan followed in the bill does not adhere
to the recommendations of the department or
take into consideration any proposition in toe
Senate. The idea of the chairman
of the committee is to provide for
only such vessels as can be constructed to the
best advantage at this time and not to tax the
Treasury too heavily. The bill is drawn upon
this idea

LAWYER MOSS REMARK.
He Says He Whispered 1t, But Judge
Miller Fined Him all the Same.

Policeman Acton made complaint to Judge
Miller in the Police Court this morning that
Lawyer Moss, colored member of the bar,
had applied an offensive and insulting epithet
to him.
"Where did it occur?" asked Judge Miller.
"Right here in court, before your honor, ("
replied the officer.
By direction of the court an information was
filed against the lawyer by Mr.. Dumont, charg-
ing him with using the insulting language al
legged. He was charged also with contempt of
court and disorderly conduct, ana to
all three charges plead not guilty.
Policeman Pearson testified that he heard
Moss say to Policeman Kenny THAT
Acton ought to be dismissed from the force"
Policeman Kenny corroborated this. Police
man Acton testified that Moss called him q
sucker"
Mr.. Moss testified that Acton was in his way
and refused to move. telling him that he (Moss)
was too busy about the court anyway.
Subsequently Moss said he spoke to Kenney
in Whisper saving: That scoundrel. Acton
ought to be put off the force and he was going
to try to get HIM off," He denied using the
language attributed to him by the officer.
Judge Miller imposed fine of IS for pro-
family.
The imposition of the fine brought the law
yer to his feet He had something to say
There's disposition here to crush me-" he
said.
"Oh, no there isn't" said Judge Miller.
"Yes there is, your honor. ;. continue Lawyer
Moss. land this is only part of the DISPOSE
ton. This is the outgrowth Of what occurred
the other day."
Then the lawyer became excited, clenched
his fist and rehearsed what occurred between
Prosecutor Dumont and himself the other
day. And now want to
move the court to issue a rule
against Mr.. Dumont to show cause why he
should not be punished for contempt"
File your affidavit" said the Judge.

SHE WILL CARE FOR HER OWN.
The Courier-Journai's Review of the
Calamity.

LOUISVILLE, KY., March 2e.-The Courier
Journal of this morning says: The results of
the terrific tornado which struck Louisville
Thursday night do not become less ap-
palling as they are more distinctly
defined There was, unless in some
.unimportant detail, no exaggeration
in the account of the calamity which the
COwter-Josnnal published yesterday morning.
The blasted section in the light of day smites
the spectator with the most impressive sense
of desolation. All day yesterday the work of
retaining the dead; of saving
stocks; OF clearing, in some degree. the
streets; of canvassing the needy among
those so suddenly deprived of their substance;
OF raising funds to supply their wants. was
xealously prosecuted. And all day the streets
were thronged with thousands curious to look
upon the horrors which had been visited
upon their fellows. Daylight besides dis
closing more plainly the nature of the
disaster, has enabled more reasonable approx
nations OF the extent Of the losses in lives and
property, although these as yet must be APP
proximations. At the latest accounts
ninety-two bodies have been recovered from
the ruins, while il is futile to speculate
by how many the list of the dead will be in
creased as the work Of reclamation progresses
or as the injuries to those yet living prove
fatal About twenty-seven survivors are yery
seriously If not mortally wounded.
There are various estimates to the material
loss. A conservative calculation makes il about
-, 000, 600. Most place it at considerably more
than that figure. Dun's estimate is
q, 500 900. Prompt measures are being
taken for the relief of the sufferers
The city council has appropriated sc, 600 for
this purpose and $4,000 more has been sub
scribed by the citizens of Louisville. This
sum will be increased in proportion to the re-
quirements, and there is every reason TO say to
sympathetic outsiders that Louisville alone can
and will prove equal to caring for her unfor-
tunate.
