A SIMILAR FATE. Mr.. Simon
has bitten oil more than he can chew
if he supposes that his individuality
is great enough to obstruct the tide
of popular sentiment. There is an
overwhelming popular sentiment IN
favor OF the Australian ballot law.
aud when the current of popular SEN
tlnent is once started, it is usually
strong enough to move all obstruc-
tions from its course, Ifthere is any
necessity for law regulating pri-
mary elections, it should be separate
from the general election law. There
is no appropriate connection between
the two. In his attempt to pose rs
party boss, Mr.. Simon should re
member the fate of Tom Reed. -.

ALTOONA, Pa, June 12.-Whiie coming
down a mountain from Lloydsville TO Bell
wood, on ths Pennsylvania aud Northwest
ern rnrailroad last night, a heavy coal train got
beyond control. and, dashing down the grade
at a fearful rate of speed, was piled up and
smashed into kindling wood at a curve on
the side of deep ravine about three miles
north of Bellwood. The zine and twenty
five cars loaded with coal lay piled up in a
mass of broken wood aud twisted
iron at the bottom OF the ravine, and
among the debris were the bodies Of the
conductor, engineer and brakeman, with
almost all semblance OF humanity crushed
out Of them. The other train hands escaped
with their lives, but all were more or less
injured. The track is torn up and block
AIDED for long distance, and passengers
are being transferred by way OF Altoona
and Cresson. The accident Is supposed 20
have been caused by wet rails and air
brakes refusing TO work properly.

LONDON, June 12.-Several tory MEM

cattle trade, are pressing Mr.. Chaplin 10 re-
fuse American inspectors the priv
ilege Of supervising the decisions
Of British officials inspecting inn
ported cattle DIR. SAlmons' unreserved
acceptance of recent diagnosis by Ameri-
can officials conflicting with the diagnosis
OF British inspectors led to an outory that
the presence Of American inspectors Is un-
constitutional, and that the United States
have no more right TO place veterinary inc
spectors in English ports than other coun-
tries sending cattle. Mr.. Chaplin in the
meantime finds it politic to continue the ex-
listing system.

PARIS, June 12.-In an interview to-day
with Count de Lesseps the latter declared
that he was not aware ethat steps had been
taken to prosecute him or his son or any of
the directors of the Panama Canal Company.
Count de Lesseps claims that it would be
impossible 10 take such step, as all his
acts in regard to the Panama canal enter
prise had been legal and above board.
There appears to be no doubt that Count
de Lesseps will be prosecuted. His wife
declares that the impression that the family
has become enriched Is without foundation.
On the contrary she says their whole for
tune was invested in the Panama canal. De
Lesseps is now weak and i'll. Bishop Frep-

He Win Succeed Quay If the Latter
RstIres


WASHINGTON, June 12.-It Senator Quay
persists in the determination which he has
frequently expressed TO his friends ever
since the close Of the Harrison Cleveland
campaign, never again to act as chairman
of the republican national committee
in a national campaign, it seems to be
the feeling here that Hon. John s. Clarkson
in the man most likely to be elected his sue
cessor. Among the men who are intimate
with Senator Quay no other name is mem
toned but that OF Gen. Clark
son. The latter Is regarded as
the best organizer in the party
next to Senator Quay, and there seems to
be little doubt that Gen. Clarkson would be
the choice Of Senator Qusy's friends. How
ever, they say they do not want
him to retire from the chairman
ship. although they admit it
would be a good deal to ask man Of his
age to stand the wear and tear Of directing
another national campaign. As to Gen.
Clarkson's standing with the President, it is
known that he visits the white house, and
while he may not be well pleased with
President Harrison's course It IL not thought
that he would be unacceptable to the
President az chairman OF the national COM
mittee. Generally it may be said that Gen.
Clarkson's name is invariably suggested
first when Senator vaY's successor Is dis

SAMOA UNSATIsFIED.
The Workings of the Berlin Treaty
Fail to Give Satisfaction

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, June 12.-Samoan
advices by the steamer Mariposa state that
there is considerable agitation going on
among the natives Of some Of the islands
with view Co unseating Malietoa and put
ting Mataafa on the throne. The workings Of
the Berlin treaty are also stated to be a
source of much dissatisfaction among the
islanders. Another cause Of complaint was
the action Of Baron Won Pilsacha, president
of the municipal council, in creating dozen
new offices when he took control of munic-
ipal affairs.
The brig Sea Waif left Apia May 1 with
cargo of wreckage from vessels sunk in
the hurricane of March, 1889. and the
bodies of twenty American sailors who
were drowned at the time. The remains
will be inferred at Mare Island
The Commercial Advertiser Of Honolulu
prints statement TO the effect that Wilcox
and Bush, leaders in the late Hawaiian in
surrection, are again stirring up the natives
and that a proposition was afoot to seize
the queen, who is visiting q neighboring
island, and hold her captive until she con-
sents to bring about modification of the
constitution, so as to shut out the whites
from any voice In the government and put
the natives in power.

sRALERs IN HARD LUCK.

The Tasmanian Government Closes
the Southern Rookeries.
SAN FRANCISCO, June IA feet of sail
ing sealing vessels belonging to this port
have lost one of their best hunting grounds.
For years il has been the custom of tine
sealers to spend several months in the South
Pacific. Last season two vessels
returned here with exceptionally large
catches from the Marquesas Is
lands. The action of the United States
in barring sealers from Bering sea recently
caused the Tasmania officials to pass an act
prohibiting seal catching in the Southern
Pacific within extensive sea boundaries.
Sealers found near the islands will risk
arrest and forfeiture of their vessels. This
is considered a hard blow to the sealing
feet of this port.

who were editors of El Popular of Guezal-

upper districts Of Guatemala. By his or
ders they were chained and thrown into

with a ball and chain locked to their feet,
carry heavy stones and do other degrading
work. 1t appears that they published an
article in their paper under the heading OF

which attacked the quasi-government of
Barillas. At once their office was seized
aud the editors were cast into prison. The
incident has caused marked indignation,
aud the feeling against President Barillas
has increased intensely. The revolutionary
talk is stronger than ever over this outrage.
