Gated. A tunnel under a carload of

later the body was dug out and it pre-
sented a horrible spectacle. Both legs
were burned off, the right arm gone, and

He was found penned under the boiler

side of the head proved that death over
took him ere the flames burnt and
charred his body into an unrecognlzable
shape. Lying on his face when found,
his left arm thrown forward to protect

that he at least made one struggle
to free himself of the mighty weight
that pinned him to the earth and
death. The remains were placed on some
gunny sacks, then into coffin box and

NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-The following is

Experience of the State OF Indiana in a Ter
rife cyclone.
Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, Sept. 4.-The passenger
steamer State of Indiana, arrived at her
pier early to-day after stormy voyage
from Glasgow. Late Sunday night she
ran into fierce cyclone and for four hours
had one of the most exciting experiences
within the recollection of her COM
mander, Capt. Alexander Richie. She
carried $40 men, women and children.
Shortly after shutdown on Sunday eve
ming the barometer fell suddenly. The
passengers were all on deck, the weather
being comparatively mild at the time.
Then brisk southeast wind sprang up
and increased in strength during the
first hour, veering suddenly to the
southwest and then west. The wind in
creased to a gale, and after changing
again from west to southwest suddenly
swept about northeast, and the big
steamer was struck by one OF the fiercest
cyclones reported in recent years. The
storm came on so suddenly that those of
the passengers who were on deck had
scarcely time to get under shelter.
Though the boat was under full steam,
her engines were little avail against the
cyclone. The wind continued for four
hours, and at no time during the period
could the officers see more than fifty feet
ahead on account OF the spray that was
thrown up by the wind and completely
enveloped the steamer.

Corresnondence Of the Gazette.

Correspondence of the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-The Republic
can party is in the dying throes of disso-
luton. There are two main causes for
this political suicide. The main reason
lies in the fact that pledges were made to
the country in their party platform, that
aFederal election law and protective
tariff bill would be passed at this session.
Quay killed the former, and Blaine has
rung the death knell of the latter. Your
correspondent talked to-day to one of
the Republican leaders in the house, and
CLEANED from him the true state of dlsaf-
lection in Republican ranks. He was
bitterly disappointed, and made no eft
fort to conceal his feelings. He said:
- Within the last two weeks Reed has
lost all the prestige in his party he may
have gained hitherto by his wIukiug at
the disgraceful scenes in the house last
week He allowed Mason to flibuster
against the lard bill, mainly for the pur-
pose of defeating the option bill of But
terworth. OF course this has allenated
the latter and his friends, and they are
legion, Butterworth has very strong
following in the house, and pos
sesses great personal magnetism.
lie Is gong out OF COuUEesss anu Oh
course does not care anything about his
personal political future. He has more
over gained the sympathy of many
friends who will follow him in his politi-
cal lethargy. On the other side is
Blaine, a strong man, with a large re-
tinue of adherents and admirers who has
come out boldly for free trade, and has
made his reciprocity resolution most
important factor in the tariff problem.
His following is by no means inconsdera-
BILE and this will have direful effect on
those who are not pronounced protec-
tionists. For one sm free to confess
that our party is already beaten in the
coming election. The Democrats will
have the house by thirty majority. The
Farmers Alliance movement is strong
and aggressive. This is another thorn in
our side. Yes sir, the next house will
not be ours, and any Republican who
talks otherwise Is either insincere or wo-
fully ignorant.
This is the sentiment one hears on
every side, and there can be no doubt a

Special 10 the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-The house was
peacefully dramatic to-day, the occasion
being the Breckenridge election case. It
was expected that there would be ebulli-
tions of anger and vituperation, but no
scenes occurred. The Republicans who
spoke bitterly denounced the murder of
Clayton and called it q political murder.
There was nothing too mean they could
not say of Arkansas, its election methods
and state OF civilization. Mr.. Breckin-
ridge made a most dIgnfied reply TO these
assaults. He defended the fair name of
his state. He challenged proof that
Clayton's murder was in any way trace
able to politics, and said that he who
uttered the charge connecting him,
Breckenridge, with the crime was
COWARD AND FALsIFIER.
He denounced the unfair methods by
which the committee reached its con-
clusion, who had debauched their own
contention for q free ballot. There was
nothing free in the committee iuvesti-
cation. He concluded his we'll chosen
remarks by saying that his people would
reverse the committees conclusion and
by returning him to the seat which the
partisan and bigoted committee had de-
Clared vacant.
1t is generally understood that the
course of Minister Mizener in regard to
the recent hostilities between Guatemala
and Salvador has not been very satisfac-
tory to the state department, and his re-
call very shortly is altogether probable.

a country for young Americans he said
that it

says a knowledge of Spanish is absolutely

done well IN Mexico, chiefly in mining,
but the trade is confined to the English,
French and Germans. They sell cheaper
than Americans, give large credits and
study the wants of their customers more
closely.
