A FORTUNATE ESCAPE
One Hundred Passengers
Ride Toward Death.
The ENGINEER OVERpOWERED
A Maniac Held Him in His Grasp
Tho Fireman Overcome
by Heat.

JANEsvfLLE, Wis, July i2.-One huu-
dred passengers thundered toward death
on the Chicago & Northwestern through
express north OF this city to-day. The
switches were shut barely In time To
save the train from destruction. Along
the track the train flew, while other
trains were rushed onto sidetracks,
and out of danger by the frightened
trainmen. ON tho floor of the locomotive
cab by Engineer Sieve Hotalling, a man
of massive build, powerless in the grasp
of a maniac. The insane man bran
dished q wrench, which he had clutGhed
from the engineers tool box. Both his
arms were in the grasp OF the
almost Departing man beneath
him, but the men on the depot
platform at Clyman, one Of the towns
through which the train passed, could
see that he had nearly freed himself,
and in another minute, unless help came,
the murderous blow OF the wrench
would fall. The maniac was engineer,
Hotalling's tieeman, c. l.. Hastings.
Near Watertown he stepped from tho
cab to the tender to coal up. lie did not
return, and Engineer Hotalling reached
back from his scat, pulled aside the cab
curtain and looked out. As the curtain
moved aside Hastings bounded In from
the tender, clutched the engineer about
the neck and threw him headlong to the
swaying footboard. There the two
struggled, as the train dashed on under
n full head of steam. At one time the
engineer all but dropped to the rails be-
meath the engine. Left without fresh
fuel, the engine was slowly losing steam,
but still rushed on at a rate that could
mean nothing less than a fearful tragedy
at the first switch left unturned.
As the train swept pact Clyman with
out stopping, the passengers and tram
crew realized that something was wrong.
and party hurried forward. Writhing

A REPULSIVE SIGHT.
The Hanging of Gallagher
at Vancouver
A STRUGGLE ON The GALL0WS
Crowds of People Present at the
Execution-A Plot to
Rescue.

PORTLAND, Or, July 1.-THE most
affecting execution ever seen In the
Northwest was witnessed In the hanging q
Of Edward Gallagher at Vancouver this
afternoon. The execution took place in
a temporary courtyard, and was wit
messed by fully 900 people. Such a
scramble to see a man swung into
eternity has seldom been seen. The On.
closure was crowded, and the
fence, shed on one side. windmill
at the other end, and the roof over the
scatlold fairly groaned with the weight
of human freight. Not only men, but
women and small boys and girls jostled
each other to get place of vantage, from
which they could see. Alter the 20
tickets were collected tho door was
thrown open, and a promiscuous crowd
thronged In.
Gallagher believed he would be
saved up to the last minute.
He was led into the yard by
the sheriff and deputy sheriff
shortly before / o. clock, and with little
assistance assembled the scaliold. lie re-
fused spiritual consolation from the
priest saying he was not going 10 die,
aud he did not take any stock In church
affairs, anyhow. 'Ihe soldiers will keep
me-, said he. The sight oi the crowd
seemed to daze him, and when he spoke
his voice was scarcely above a whisper.
lie apologi2ed for appearing before them
In that form, and promised to
do better some other time, an
imbeciliC smile playing about his mouth
when he spoke Everything went
smoothly until it came to fastening
his hands and feet, and then he fonght
like q mailman lie struck out with
his arms. and kicked like a maniac,
knocking down the sheriff and several
of his assistants, and II required the
combined efforts Of seven men to over
power him.
A feeling of horror crept over the
crowd. for such n struggle on the scat
fold had never been seen by any present
before. It was narrowing in the eN-
treme. lie was finally manacled and
the cap and moose were adjusted, and, as
the trap WAS sprung. lie hissed the

November. He denied his guilt, claim

never been found, and It is believed
that Gallagher killed him also. While
he was not insane, he was moral idiot.

TORN INTO FRAGMENTS.
A Large Amount OF Money Lost by
Train Robbers.

JAsNsrows, N. d., July 12-on the
night OF June 7 last Northern Pacific
train was boarded near New Salem. N.
d., by two masked mon, who terrorized
the train men aud got away with several
pouches of registered mail matter. One
OF the robbers was afterwsrd captured
by tho postal authorities, who probably
know by this time the amount they Sc
cured. The published estimate OF s., 900
or 81, 900 is but rude guess. L. Is be-
leved that the robbers got away with
nearer so, 900.
The postal inspectors have searched
over the ground where they caught the
robber. They found In torn bits and
ragged pieces a large amount ofrurrency.
including one bill of 1900. There were
also found a number Of tens and twenties
more or less mutilated. A whole bundle
had been dropped In one place and as in
tho robbers haste II had not been se-
curely tied, coyotes or gophers Md torn
and separated the money and tho wind
had scattered It. The amount recovered
tho inspector will not disclose but
runs into the thousands.

the news from Rome that the Propa'

AMERICAN PORK IN GERMANY.
II. u. Phelps, the American minister,
has received from hamburg a copy Of a
peti tion which has been sent to Chan
cellor Won Caprivi, and which bears the
signatures of various steamship com.
panies and leading firms and corpora
tions. Tho petitioners ask for the re
scinding of the prohibition against
American pork. They urge that Ger.
many can not produce enough
pork to satisfy her own wants.
The price of pork has risen
SO enormously that poor people can not
buy 1t. The wholesale price of German
snlted bacon is 1870 marks per 100 kilo'
grams, while American bacon can pay
the duty and be sold ut 50 marks. The
pork imported from the ueiEhborinp
