THE BERLIN BUDGET.
The Emperor Pushing African Ne
gotiations With England.

Emperor William was able May 3 st
for the first time since Sundays ac-
cident to hobble about the room on
crutches. Several OF the smaller
bones of the ankle were broken. and
the whole leg Is confused. The doctors
insist on his taking u longer rest
Throughout the week the emperor has
kept his secretaries ana ministers
actively at work. He was displeas,d
at the delays in negotiations with
England regarding Africa, and took
entire control of the matter After
several conferences with the British
ambassador and heads Of the colonial
department, proposals were fixed Upon
which, it is thought, will prove nc.
ceptable to Lord Salisbury. Briefly,
they are that the German Central shall
extend TO the limits OF the Congo
state, from the northern extremity Of
Tanganyika TO Albert Nyanza; that
Ungunda and British Unyoro shall be
neutral ground; and that navigation OF
the lakes shall be free The British
ambassador evidently thought these
bases good enough TO justify rcsump-
ton OF the discussion, as he has re-
called Lord SaliSbury's envoy and the
matter will be re-opened, A long
struggle is expected over the matter.
Major Wissman comes about June 23rd
and DR.. Peters early in July, each
loaded with facts and reasons in sup
port of German claims.

FILLED WITH SHOT.
An Onicer Assassinated While Dis,
charging His Duty.

Word was received OF the shooting
of Officer Norris in Sharp county, Ark.
The tragedy was accompanied by many
sensational features. 1t appears that
a young man named Reuben Ford was
charged with having led astray Miss
Cora Davidson, aged twenty, who lives
near Batesville. The the girl Is a
daughter of DR.. M. j. Davidson, and
granddaughter of Hon. i. nj. Simms,
who, in his lifetime, represented dis
trict in congress from Tennessee and
Missouri respectively, and who was a
member of the Arkansas state senate.
The relatives of the wronged girl de-
cided to force Ford to marry her. Ac-
cordingly her cLusin and brother,
Swepson Simms and Isaac Davidson,
together with three other young men,
went to the house where Ford stayed,
took him to the county seat, procured
"a license, and taking Ford and Miss
Davidson to II justice of the peace at
3 o'clock in the morning, had the mar
rage ceremony performed. Ford dis
appeared and swore warrants against
his captors, charging them with alb
duction. The papers were given Off
GER Norris to serve, who with a posse,
proceeded to Davidson's house, arriv-
ing at midnight The officer called for
a light and told his business. The
Simms boys, three in number, and
Isaac Davidson we're hidden in the
front yard. They advised the posse
to leave and then opened fire. Norris
received fifty shots ranging from his
head to his feet At last accounts he
was yet alive, but it is said he cannot
recover.

PASSED THE LIE IN COURT
Sharp Denial of a Witness State
ment of Attempted Bribery.

In October last Stanley Jones, pro-
prietor of cigar store, at Plainfeld;
o., shot and killed Lawyer Andrew A.
Ammidown as the latter was alighting
from his carriage after a drive with
his wife and Mrs. Jones. Ammldown
was the attorney of Mrs. Jones in a
suit for divorce. There is no evidence
that his relations with his client were
anything more than friendly and pro-
fessional, but Jones sought to justify
his action by allegations OF intimacy
and alienation of his wife's affection.
Jones has well-to-do connections, and
every resource has been employed to
secure his acquittal, mainly on the
ground OF insanity. The trial began
the first week in April and has been in
progress ever since. June DIR. Strong,
superintendent OF the insane asylum
at Newburg, was cross-examined by
the defense and testified that he had
been offered $50 to swear that Jones
was insane. You are liar" shout
cd Lawyer Alvord, and instantly the
whole court room was in a tumult. IL
was ten minutes before the Judge and
sheriff could restore order. DIR. Strong
reaffirmed his statement, and, as his
character is above suspicion, his evil
dence is hard blow to the defense.

TERRIBLE DISASTER.
Forty Lives Lost in a Railway
Wreck.

The carclessncss Of bridgekeeper
near Oakland, Cal, May 30th, on the
narrow gauge road, led to fatal
plunge Of an engine and one car into
creek and terrible loss of lie.
Twenty bodies were recovered and us
many moro were missing. The narrow
guage train connected wi the l:l5
train from San Francisco and in the
three oars were about $50 people. AS
the train neared the Wooster street
draw-bridge, the passengers who look
ed out the window were amazed TO see
the draw open. The train came around
the sharp curve at high speed before
the engineer could materially slacken
up. The yacht Juniata had Just pass
ed through and the bridge keeper
made desperate effort to close the
draw, but without success. Luckily
the weight OF the engine and the first
coach broke the train in two and the
rest OF 1t was saved. The engineer
was Sam Dunn, the fireman Charles
O'BrIen, and the conductor Ed. Rear
ath. OF this trio Rearath escaped
through being in the hind part OF the
train. 1T was rumored that Dunn and
O'Brien jumped and swan to safety,
but it is not believed, as neither has
since been seen. When the coach fell
through it went completely under wa
ter, but a number OF passengers crawl
ed through the windows and escaped.
The majority of passengers in the
coach were women and children. From
the broken half OF the train the pas
sengers swarmed out, women shrek
ing, and men half frantic, although
there was no occasion for their fears,
as the car was securely wedged in by
the woodwork at the approach to the
bridge. The car which had followed
the engine 10 the bottom OF the muddy
Estaury, soon arose and many of the
passengers were picked up by small
boats which gathered ut the scene.
When those were all picked up, the
boats gathered around the car, where
forty or fifty women and children lay
sutfocating beneath the water. They
could do little or nothing, as it took
several minutes to tear off the roof of
the car. IL was finally taken of and
the work of removing the bodies com
menced ten being taken out in quick
succession. Conductor Rearath was
seen directly after the accident and
said in all probability twenty-five wo-
men and children had persisted. Three
women and three girls were taken
from the water alive and removed to
the hospital. Another young lady
died soon after being taken from the
water. News of the accident created
intense excitement in Oakland and
thousands of people foclied to the
morgue and TO the scene of The wreck.
The body of f. Z. Robinson, which
was among those taken ftom the hole
cut in the roof Of the car, was among
the first removed. The bodies Of six
men and two women were brought in
soon after, some Of the bodies being
at first left at the receiving hospital,
where the injured were also taken. In
short time thirteen bodies lay on
the floor and on marble slabs awaiting
Identification.
