BROKE IN A ROW.
A Disgraceful Free Fight at a Chica
Labor Meeting.

"A
Labor Meeting.
CHICAGO, July 5.-A disgraceful free
for-all fight was the feature OF the regu--
lar weekly meeting OF the Trade and
Labor assembly today. For about two
the report OF the Labor day and enter
tainment committee with reference to
the letting of contract for printing a
souvenir. Fraud was charged and finally
the lie was exchanged by two delegates,
when fighting commenced. The ut
most confusion reigned, and for time
it seemed that everybody in the hall,
except the women, was mixed up in the
melee. Black eyes and broken heads
were numerous, and at last knife was
drawn, though its owner was tripped
up and disarmed before murder could
be committed. Tommy Morgan, late
candidate for mayor on the Socialist
whose report caused the trouble, disap-
peared while the row was in progress.

"There, I've come away and forgot my

The Nickel in the Slot.

lh6 NICKEL III INC SIOIs
To buy the favor of the world,
Its notice and its thought,
Be swift of foot and swiftly put
A nickel in the slot.
Fate's tutti frutti lies concealed
Meath iron locks hard wrought,
And you must stop and gently drop
A nickel in the slot.
To gain the chewing gum of fame
Don't idly wait around
For the thing to start and fall apart,
And spill it on the ground,
For the machine is stout and strong,
OF toughest iron wrought.
. March up and stop and gently drop
A nickel in the slot.
The sweet perfumery of love
Turks in the big machine,
But its fragrant flavor and sunny savoa
Are firmly locked, ween.
So do not stand and vainly sigh,
Firm rooted to the spot;
Be swift of foot and gently put
A nickel in the slot.
The world is careful of its goods,
And under lock and key
It keeps them tight concealed from sight
Away from you and me.
But there's way to get them all,
The whole strong guarded lot,
II we just stop and gently drop
A nickel in the slot.

KANSAS CRY, July ga special from
Topeka, Kan, says: A Rock Island
passenger train was stopped last night
near Lymon junction, Colorado, by
grasshoppers. The insects covered the
tracks for five miles, and two engines
were necessary to pull the train through,
their crushed bodies making the rails
slippery. The engines were two hours
in getting the train over the five-mile
stretch. The grasshoppers have only
been Matched two weeks, but it is feared
they will mature enough to rise before
the corn is hard enough to be safe, and
will be blown into this state by north
west winds.

A STEAMER BURNED.
THE OLIVER BEIRNE DESTROYED
AT MILlKENS BEND, MISS.

Fifteen Lives Known to Have Been Lost
sons Killed by the Recent Japanese
= Earthquake Now Estimated at 10000.
Casualties.
New ORLEANS, Oct. 30.-Steamer Oh
liver Beirne, from st. Louis, burned at
Millikens Bend, twenty-five miles above
Vicksburg, shortly after 8 o'clock a. m.
Fifteen lives are known to be lost and
more are thought to have persisted. The
boat was on her way to New Orleans.
She had 10 passengers on board. s.
The Beirne, after getting into the
Mississippi river, accepted freight on her
way down, and when she reached Mil
likens Bend she had aboard several hun
dred bales of cotton in addition to a
quantity of miscellaneous freight. She
reached Miilikens Bend during the even
ing and landed there, intending to re-
sumo her trip down the river at
daybreak. Most of the passengers and
crew were asleep when at $3.50 o'clock an
Alarm of Fire Was Sounded,
and scarcely before any one was awake
the boat was afame. The blaze origin
ated on the lower deck, from what cause
no one has yet been able to learn, and
communicating to the dry cotton was
soon burning with great ferceness.
The crew, together with the passen-
gers who were awake, gave the alarm to
those who were asleep. A rush was
Immediately made for the forward part
of the boat and many got off in safety,
but that avenue of escape and others
were soon cut off and the unfortunate
passengers and crew were forced to
plunge into the water. The crew of the
boat displayed commendable GOODNESS
and every effort was made to rescue
those who had not reached the shore.
Either Burned or Drowned.
Chief Engineer Birdlaw launched the
yawl of the boat, and he with other
men succeeded in picking up many of
the struggling unfortunates in the
water. Some, however, were beyond
reach and and were either burned to
death or sank beneath the waters to
rise no more. The alarm was commu-
nicated to the people of Millikens Bend,
and the bank of the river was soon
crowded with the villagers who assisted
in the work Of rescue and Hospitality
threw open their homes to survivors of
the disaster.

houses were destroyed and 5000 persons

houses were destroyed and 5000 persons
were killed by the earthquake at Gifu.
The towns Of Kano and Kasamatsu
are also reported to have been destroyed
together with fifty miles of railroad.
It is presumed that the fire which
started among the wrecked buildings at
Nagoya, as already cabled, may have
had great deal to do with the great
loss of life which is announced by
the private message mentioned. As
loss of life at Kano and at Kasamatsu
is not mentioned, and as these towns are
said to be destroyed, it is estimated here
that the tatol loss of life may eventually
be shown to be over 10000.
Additional advicAs confirm the news
that there have been many wrecks about
the Island of Homo, as one of the conse-
quences of the terrible disturbance. The
severance of telegraphic communication
with the death visited districts continue
to prevent the accurate details being
gathered as to tie extent of the
calamity.

BosToN, Oct. 28.-The schooner Sera-

that on Saturday last he saw a four
masted schooner founder thirty-fivs
miles south of Matinicus. All hands
went down with the vessel. Very. se-
we're weather prevailed but the four
masted schooner seemed to be In good
condition. About 4 o'clock IN the after
noon her distress signals were displayed.
The Seraphine bore down to aid hsr but
had only covered about half the distance
separating the vessels when the stranger
gave a sudden lurch and disappeared
beneath the waves. The Seraphine
cruised around for several hours but
found no one to aid. The captain de-
scribes the lost vessel IS being Of about
800 tons capacity and black hull.

BEVERLY, Mass, Nov. 2.-Beverly
was visited by $500. 900 fire. The fire
was discovered at 2:15i in Aliens Box
factory on River street. The building
was set on poles over the Denver river.
The factory was sheet of flames before
the fire department reached the scens.
The flames leaped to the shoe factory
owned by Woodbury. Bros, and this
building was doomed together with a
two-story dwelling and a three-story
building occupied by Woodbury. Bros.
The freight house of the Boston and
Maine road, although deluged water,
was consumed, together with five parlor
cars and three cars. In the meantime
sparks were floating in every direction,
and people were protecting their homes
with hand hoses. At one time twenty
tenements and barns in the vicinity were
on fire. The Morgan and Grady build
ings on Park street were badly burned
on the outside, and the flag station of the
Boston and Maine road was destroyed.
Across the railroad track was a large

NEW York, Nov, 2.-The Herald's
dispatches from Santiago say the CHILEAN
authorities show no disposition to recede
from the defiant attitude which they
assumed in the answe. TO the communi-
cation from the United States in regard
to an assault on members of the crew of
the United States steamer Baltimore.
Pedro Montt, the representative of the
provisional government at Washington,
sent dispatch Friday urging the junta
to adopt . conciliatory policy and to
move with great caution. but his advice
has apparently had no effect. While the
American and other foreign residents
fully realize the gravity of the situation
and are fearful Of other and perhaps
graver complications, the CHILEAN public
appear to have no conception Of it. Be-
yond the meager facts which have been
published In the local papers they are as
8 rule ignorant of what has occurred.

NEW YORK, Nov. "A Washington
special to The Mail and Express says
that at a cabinet meeting President Har-
rison insisted on an immediate conclu-
sion of the CHILEAN negotiations and laid
before the cabinet Chili's demand for
the recall Of Egan as condition prece-
dent to q successful settlement of the
difficulties. The president declared that
before he would submit to the humilia-
ton of minister's recall under the cir
cumstances he would prefer to abandon
his Office. The result of the meeting
was q cablegram instructing Minister
Egan to insist ON an immediate reply to
last note and to inform Chill that delay
would not be tolerated.
Tho same dispatch says that a COM
munication was received from Minister
Egan indicating no abatement of the i'll
feeling tawards this government and re-
porting that his efforts to hasten an in
vestigation have been fruitless, and he
does not think the junta is disposed to
give satisfaction. He has prepared to
leave the country and thinks his retire
ment may be essential for the preserva-
ton Of the lives of the Americans.

night long battling with the flames and
it was not until morning that the fire
was gotten under control. Nineteen
buildings were burned in all. The total

some insurance on this, but the exact
amount is unknown. Business is almost

CONvICTS RELEASED.
The Stockade ct BriceviIle. Tenn, Burned
by Miners,


by Miners,
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 3D. One
hundred and fifty convicts have been re-
leased at Briceville and an immense
stockade has been burned.
Commissioner Alleman tells graphic
story of the ARRAY. He was at Brice-
vile with Commissioner of Labor Ford.
Shortly after 9 o'clock he was awakened
by the repart of a big explosion at the
stockade. He knew what had come,
and, jumping from bed, without even
putting on hat or shoes, ran from the
building and down to Coal creek, six
miles distant. Along the line he met
numbers of convicts pulling off striped
clothing and jumping into citizens
dress, and looking back he saw flames
lighting up the skies for miles around.
At Oliver Springs, Also.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov. AIT an
early hour 200 eonvicts at Oliver Springs
were liberated by band of armed and
mounted men, who rode into the city
from the direction of the mountains.
After iberating the prisoners the stock
ade was set on fire and burned. The
convicts, for the most part, were fur
nished with citizens clothes by their lib
orators. The band had no trouble in
setting the convicts free. The guard
was evidently overawed and offered no
resistance. It is reported that it is the
intention OF the miners to hberate the
convicts now confined at Tracy City,
but no confirmation of this rumor can
be had at present. 1t is estimated that
there are at least 500 convicts now at
large, whe have been given their liberty
by the miners. The governor has started
for Nashville. A good deal of specula-
ton as to the reason for his visit to that
city is INDUCED in,
