BISMARCK ON SOCIALISM.
1t May Yet Cause Trouble in Germany-No
Fear of May Day.


Fear of May Day.
LONDON, April 26.-The Herald pub
fishes the report of an interview had by
one of its representatives with Prince
Bismarck. The ex-Chancellor said he
would not, if it were in his power, in
terfere with the workingmen in any
way on May day, nor would he dis
play any anxiety, which only increases
the aggressiveness of the agitators.
Socialism, he said, would yet cause
trouble in Germany, and the man who
would yield to that element to prevent
a manifestation was a coward. 1t was
sometimes an act of benevolence to shed
the blood of the riotous in defense of
the law-abiding. May day was not a
dangerous enemy, and the naming of it
for an assault ought not to be dreaded.
1t would only be sham fight like the
battles of the Salvation army.

MISSISSIPPI MATTERS.
A Horrible Death.

NEWTON, Miss, April 25.-News OF
heartrending accident, which occurred
about twenty miles in the interior and
near the Neshoba county line, has just
reached here. The terrible particulars,
given by a gentleman who resides in
the immediate neighborhood, are about
as follows: Mr.. George Nelson and his
daughter, Christine c., some IA or Is
years of age, were engaged in burning
of the brush on few acres OF newly
cleared land, when the latter's dress
suddenly caught on fire. At first the
young lady attempted to extinguished
1t herself, but as the wind was blowing
the sparks soon burst into a flame, and
with cry for help she ran toward her
father. When Mr.. Nelson heard the
cry and turned his daughter was per-
feet mass of flames, and by the time he
reached her she was reeling and almost
unconscious. The farmer was in his
shirt sleeves, and, having nothing with
which to smother the fire, he put 1T out
with his naked hands, but in doing so
probably ruined himself for life, as both
those members were burned almost to
crisp. His daughter was fatally burned,
however, and after hours of intense suf-
fering died the following day at o'clock.
The Ouarles, Rogers & Bounds Case.
WINoNA, April 23.-Some feeling was
created in this place to-day when the
Sheriff of Lauderdale County arrested
United States Marshal S. S. Matthews,
for his participation in the case OF
Ouarles, Rogers & Bounds, whose failure
in Meridian for the sum of about $685. 600
has already been announced to the
public. This arrest grows out OF the re-
fusal of Marshal Matthews to comply
with the orders of the State Courts
rather than those emanating from the
United States Court, in Mississippi, pre-
sided over by the Hon. r. A. Hill. The
caes excites the greater interest since 1t
indicates usurpation of power by the
Federal over the Supreme Court of the
State. Marshal Matthews in charge OF
Sheriff Thompson left this afternoon for
Meridian.
MERIDIAN, April 25.-The Quarles,
Rogers & Bounds case is still the sensa-
ton here. Chancellor Evans arrived
last evening and last night he issued an
Injunction restraining c. Robertson, the
receiver appointed by the United States
Court, from disposing of the goods as
ordered by Judge Hill. The Sheriff
served a writ on Mr.. Robertson late last
night, and nothing has been done to-day
toward selling the stock, and a motion
will be made before Judge Hill to dis
solve the injunction. The United States
Marshal is still in the custody of Sheriff
Boudreaux, Judge Hillnot having rem
dered decision on the petition for writ
of habeas corpus sent him yesterday
Strong efforts have been made to-day to
compromise the case and effect some
settlement which would be just and
equal to all parties, and several PROPOSE
tions have been made and acceded to,
then withdrawn, and the indications to-
night are that the case will be fought
out, even to the Supreme Court of the
United States, where it will have to go
if an appeal is taken.

THROUGH A WALL OF FIRE
lnprisoned Miners See Death on
Both Sides.
An Explosion of Gas Sets the Wood
work on Fire.
The Five Men Taken From the Mine
Alive.

WukEsBARRE, Pa, Jan g. At the
Nottingham mine, in Plymouth, this
evening where a cavern occurred last
week, terrific explosion Of gas occurred.
The bratticn work and timber at once
caught fire and burned furiously. Five
men were caught between the cave.in and
the exit cut OF. The report spread and in
a few minutes hundreds of men. women
and children gathered at the mouth Of the
stope The wives and children of the inn
prisoned men lost all control of themselves
and sorrowful scenes were witnessed.
About half an hour after the fire
broke out John Humphreys and
John Richards were lowered into the
mine. When they reached the fire they
heard the cries and shouts ON the other
side. Putting their hands before their
faces, they rushed through the fire aad
dragged the FIVE imprisoned men out one
by one uninjured Thomas Richards,
who was in another part of the mine, was
fatally burned Water is coming through
near where the cave in occurred last week
and the miners fear that the river may
break into the mine. If this should hap.
pen many mines would be drowned out
beyond hope of retaining them and the
operations would have to be suspended,
