and regents this morning, it was decided
to expel Natalie from Servia, and in
structions to that effect were given to
the police. A strong force of gen.
darmes made an attack upon
the queens palace and succeeded
in breaking through the Gordon OF
students and citizens guarding Natalie.
After sharp fight the gendarmes sue
ceeded in entering the palace. The gen.
darmes then forced their way to Natalie's
bedroom and summoned her to arise, as
she must instantly leave Servian terri
tory. The queen calmly replied that
she would yield to force, and requested
the students who so CALAMITY defended
her to make no further resistance. The
queen was then allowed to dress herself,
and after bidding adieu to the leaders
of her defenders, during which a most
touching scene was witnessed, she was
escorted to her private carriage which
was waiting at the palace entrance, and
was hastily driven to the railroad sta
ton, followed by the cheers of students
and citizens of Belgrade, whose
enthusiasm had to be kept within
bounds by the display of an overwbelm-
ing force of troops. At the station a
special train was in waiting, and the
queen was immediately conveyed on
board. No sooner was the queen and
her baggage on board, than the train left
the depot for the Hungarian frontier.
The populace is enraged against the
minister of war, Colonel Witches, who
is understood to be the most active OF
the ministers in insisting that Natalie
should be expelled. Popular feeling
against him is so great that it is proba-
bic he will be compelled to tender his
resignation.
In the fight which took place last
night, between the gendarmes who at
tackled the students and citizens defend
ing the queens palace, one man was
killed and fifty more or less severely
wounded.
VIENNA, May 19.-It is stated here
that ex-Queen Natalie, of Servia, is en-
route to the palace of Sanai, at Buchar-
est, the capital of Roumania; fact
which gives rise to the rumer that inn
portant political events may follow her
expulsion from Servia.

REDUCED TO FRAGMENTS
A WORK TRAIN BLOWN TO ATOMS
BY DYNAMITE.
Others Fatally Injured-The Bodies of
the Victims Fearfully Mangled.

TARRYrowN, N. Y. May 19.-Just be-.
fore noon today work train of the Hud-
son River road was blown to atoms near
here, by the explosion of dynamite be-
ing transported to use in track construc-
tion. There were thirty-three men on
the train, eighteen Of whom were killed
and the remainder seriously, some
fatally, wounded. Many Of the dead
were blown into the river, and five
bodies still remain there. The train
was torn to atoms. The tracks were
ripped from the road bed and great
hole was torn in the earth. There were
twenty-four cases of dyna mite in the
first car of the train, each
containing fifty pounds. A spark
from the engine, it is said, set fire to a
greasy rope coiled in front Of the pack
ages, and an explosion followed. Its
force was terrific. The walls of houses
in Tarrytown, two miles away, were
cracked, and window glass fell in show
ers to the sidewalks. Scores of clocks
were stopped at IL 20.
The car in which the dynamite was
stored and those following it were COM
pletely demolished, while the bodies of
the unfortunates on the train were
hurled in every direction. A terrible
sight was witnessed by those who hur-
ried to the spot. The track was torn
up for space of six hundred feet,
the rails bent in all sorts of shapes,
while dead bodies and terribly mangled
men, still living, could be seen about.
The locomotive was blown out OF all
semblance to one, and the tender had
been thrown half way into the river.
Some men were found hundreds of yards
away from the track, while others were
taken out from the hole made by the
explosion. The wounded were in most
cases horribly mutilated, in several in
stances their arms and legs. being torn
off.
As rapidly as possible the wounded
were cared for by surgeons, and removed
to the hospital. Ten of those
killed were picked up along the
track, while five were taken from
the river. Three of the injured died
shortly after being picked up. 1t is be-
lieved there are still some bodies in the
river, and the total number of killed
will be twenty or more.
The killed are: John Mccarthy, time
keeper; Frank Morrisey, powder tender;
Brakeman John Smith and fifteen Itali-
ans, names unknown.
All the train hands were seriously in
iured, as well as dozen or more
Italians.
A panic occurred in the high school Of
Tarrytown among the pupils, when the
building was violently shaken by the
explosion, all thinking an earthquake
had occurred. The children ran wildly
into the street, but fortunately no one
was injured.

PITrsBURG, May ia dispatch from
Scottdale says: The miners of the re.
gion demonstrated their intention to re-
main out, in more than one way, today.
Every effort was made by the operators
to force the men in convention to vote
to return to work, but the work OF
the leaders in opposition was toe
powerful, and they voted to remain out
to man. Every district in the region
was represented.
Several riots occurred this even.
ing, one striker being shot and
slightly wounded. One of the Sc
ceders from the strikers ranks, who had
been working, was hooted by crowd Of
strikers on the street and was driven
into the Scottdale house by mob of one
thousand men, that would not disperse
until fire hose was turned on them.
Shortly after two deputies from Valley
Works tried to assert their authority
over the maddened mob. A rush was
made for the deputies, one of
whom fred, wounding strik-
er. The deputies were trampled
under foot in a moment, but were picked
up and carried away by the town police,
while the mob fed before another as
sault from the fire department.
Soon another rush was made; the dep
uties were taken from the police and
pounded and kicked in horrible man
ner. Under the advice of the leaders
the strikers finally let them go.

A Government swindler.

SPOKANE, Wash, May 19.-It is alleged
that a special agent of the government
land Office has been operating through
eastern Washington for the past month,
with remarkable success. He goes by
the name of Pendleton, or Pemberton,
and threatens saw mill men with prose-
cution for buying timber from settlers
who have not yet settled on their claims.
He has swindled five or six men out of
sums ranging from two hundred to five
hundred dollars. Special agent Skiles
is besieged with inquiries from this
mans victims. Advices from Washing
ton say he has no connection with the
general land Office, but he must have
been so connected at some period in the
past, because he has credentials, and is
thoroughly familiar with his business.

man of the local organization, fully one
Thousand delegates were present. Gov
ernor Routt, on behalf of the state, well
coined the delegates. Mayor Rogers, OF
Denver, spoke on the duties of legisla-
lures and congress. Chairman Fish
back deprecated sectional bitterness,
but warned the. convention not to be
blinded by the vital questions awaiting
settlement. The developments of nine
states, in the New England corner OF
the country. controlled the wealth of
the people. They dominated politics
and succeeded in demonetizing silver.
1t had forced the commerce of the vast
area west of the Mississippi river, and
interdicted it's commerce.
A recess till 2 %. m. was then taken.
At the afternoon session Mayor
Shakespeare of New Orleans made a
speech, in which he referred to the re-
cent events in New Orleans, and said he
thanked the people OF the United States
for the manner in which he was upheld
in trying to do his duty as an American
citizen. He was glad that 1T was he
who was put in position to enunciate
those few ideas OF American principles
that were left to contend for. American
citizens should have no fear OF assassina-

The fire was one of the most destruct--
i've that ever visited Jacksonville. and
the losses foot up nearly half a million
dollars. Three more buildings, a three

THE THIRD PARTY DEMAND.
At midnight the committee on resolu-
tions was still in session, with the pros
pect of an all night meeting. From
time to time there have been intima-
tions OF discord. About 10 O'Clock Pow

the Chicago Sentinel, addressed the
committee, urging the formation OF a
new party at once, and announc-
ing his intention, in the event the
committee shirked the responsibility
imposed upon it, to carry the fight into
the convention. He was frequently in
terrupted by applause. The feeling in
favor of decisive action as to the forma-
tion of new party, is steadily growing,
and what was before suggestion is now
a demand. 1t is said that at least
one hundred propositions are before the
committee for consideration.
