-Four Yankee. Marines Slain and Others
Wounded In Street Fight.
At Valparaiso, Chilli. three, perhaps four,
American man-of-war's men were killed
and several others were more or less Sc
verely wounded lii a desperate street fight
with a crowd OF Onilian sailors The Chill
ians did not do all the fighting, for when
the fight was ended a number of them were
found to be pretty badly hurt. though
so far as can be ascertained, none
of them were killed. One account
as to the origin OF the difficulty
which seems plausible is this: Ever since
the triumph of the junta there has been a
feeling among the lower classes of the peo-
pie of marked hostility to the Americans.
and the blue jackets from the American
war ships were sometimes subjected to In
suit. 1t is alleged that party of men
from the Baltimore, ashore on liberty, met
with the CHILEAN man-of-war's men. The
hatred of the 9Yankeen led to some insult
ing remark, which was resented by one OF
the hotter headed Americans, and this
brought on a general fight which was at
tended with such fatal results

A portion of the Baltimore and Ohio
fast mail No s, from Chicago to New
York, jumped the track near Hicksville,
Ohio, killing two passengers, wounding
five others fatally and twenty others less
seriously.
The train consisted of baggage car,
smoker, day coach, sleeper and private
car of Vice President King. The smoker
and baggage car remained attached to
the locomotive, but the private car and
the ladies' zach went over the embank-

The day coach, which was we'll filled,
turned over once and bounded right side
up. In it's aerial maneuyer ii straddled
two of the telegraph lines, and the cross
timbers were wrenehed from several
poles. The sleeper Jared better, and
after sliding off its trucks it lay right
side up on the ground. Those in the
smoker escaped with severe shaking
up and many bruises. Neither the
smoker nor the baggage car left the
track, but the former must nave escaped

The train was running fully sixty
miles all hour at the time, and as near
as can be ascerta ned the accident was
caused by one of the drive wheels of the
engine leaving the track at the switch
near the water tank This wheel spread
the rails and all the cars excepting the
baggage and smoker left the track. For
space of 500 feet the rails were abSO-

After the coaches left the grade and

Very rich Find In wisconsin Hills

Very Rich Find In Wisconsin Hills.
Silver, apparently in great quantities,
has been found within twenty. miles of
West Superior, Wis, and already the min
ing craze has affected the whole town.
Ore has been brought into town
which assays over 800 ounces Of silver
to the ton, and the deposits are said to
be very extensive. The find was made by
w. G. Tonkin, practical miner from Ne
vada. Surrounding the city at distance of
seven to fifteen miles is rough range of
hills, semicircular in form, rugged and al
most precipitous. 1t is heavily wooded
and indented by deep gullies that render
driving almost impossible and which have
prevented a thorough exploration of the
range. The lower portion Of the
elevation is fairly approachable, and
more than twenty years ago copper
was found in such quantities as TO
give the range of hills the title by which
they are now known, cooper" Range. The
mineral was found in its native state, but
the top formation convinced miners that the
cost of taking the metal out would not
warrant the putting in of prospect plant
large scale.
