V1cKsBuRG, Miss, Sept. 6.-The Louis vile, New Orleans X Texas railroad passenger train No. 2, due here at mid night, but two hours late, was derailed on an embankment five miles north of here and badly wrecked.

No loss of life occurred, though Con- ductor Gurley, Engineer Cook and two or three passengers are confined to their beds owing to severe bruises.

Illinois Central Stockholders Up in Arms
 Over Their Losses.

Over Their Losses
 NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-An evening paper prints petition which it says is being circulated among the stockhold- CTS of the Illinois Central railroad urg- ing them to rise in rebellion against the present management of the com- pany. The petition gives figures from the annual report of the company, and says:
 Ut is believed that since the report of 1888 was published the debt of the company has been increased by several millions of dollars, and that the debt and stock are approximately $3S, ,000, ,000 in excess of 1883. And there are strong reasons for believing that at this time the company has a floating debt of from one to three millions of dollars.
 ''It must be apparent that after pay ing the Fannual interest charges the margin for six per cent. dividends is now very narrow and that 6 further issue of $5, ,000, 900 of stock, as proposed by the present management, or any considerable increase in the debt and interest account, will force a reduction of dividends and Q serious decline in the market value of the shares.
 Ut is clear that @ crisis in the af- fairs of the company is rapidly ap- preaching, and that. if not promptly met. heavy losses will ensue.
 "With the facts before us we must insist that the present management is not a success and that the owners should demand a change. The best in terests of the stock holders, in our opinion, require that its president and vice-ptesident should be practical rail road men who have demonstrated their ability to manage a great railroad like ours"

swap everything for democratic votes
for the republican candidates for the
Legislature. In this way Filley hopes
to capture the Missouri legislature,
and he is already seeing that nobody
but his friends are nominated for
members of the Thirty fifth general
assembly. Filley, perhaps to hide
his game and hoodwink Kerens, War
ner and Noble, is making a feint at
the -treasurership, but it can be
safely accepted that he is not Sc
rious. Filley is seeking vindication
from his party in Missouri, and at
the same time laboring to snub the
administration. He feels that the
capture of the legislature by the re-
publicans, and his own election to
the United States senate, would be
Just the kind of ofvindication he would
like for himself, and just the kind OF
a snub he would like to administer
