through the bridge over Coon river.
Only the rear sleeper remained on the

A sudden shock was experienced by the
passengers when the tie was struck, after
which the coaches ran about two car
lengths, then left the track, and the engine
and mail cars went through the bridge,
a distance of fifty feet. into the river. The
baggage car and smoking car. chair car
and one Pullman fell from the side of the
trestle, distance of fortv feet. The bag

A Black Montague-Capulet
Feud Is Ended.
Four Men Enter the Rind
With Knives.
Three Are Dead, Hacked Be-
yond Recognition.
Maddened by Pain the Fourth
Commits Suicide.
The Battle Witnessed by 6 Large
Crowd OF Natives.

NEW YORK. June 1S.-The steamship
rived from Jamaica ports this afternoon.
Chief Mate J. B. Lowell told the follow
ing tale:
On the afternoon of June Il the
Portland touched at Port Marie. Mate
Lowell was sent on shore to get the mails.
On his way to the postofice he came
across a crowd Of blacks on the village
green. There must have been at least
500 Of them, and when Mr. Lowell
inquired what the row was about they in
formed him that battle royal was Just
about to begin. -Four coolies, all natives
of the town, had become involved in a sort
OF Montague-Capulet controversy, and
each of them had arrived at the conclu-
sion that Port Marie and this planet gen.
orally was altogether too good place to
harbor the other three any longer. So
they had mutually decided to fight to the
death.
In the center Of the green an inclosure
had been roped off, and inside of it. at
each corner, stood one of the four contest
ants. They were stripped to the waist
and each man grasped in his right hand
knife with blade seven inches long.
For moment the men stood glarIng at
each other, then the word was given and
the fight began. 1t was a case OF every
man for himself with vengeance. Mate
Lowell says that without exception it was
the most fearful sight he ever saw. In
five minutes it was all over.
When the police arrived upon the scene
three bodies hacked almost beyond recog-
milton lay inside the ropes. The fourth
man was so crazed by his wounds that be-
fore the police could lay hands on him ne
drove his own knife through his heart.

sleepers. The mail car ran on top of the
two engines, tearing out the flooring and
smashing in the sides. The smoker was
thrown off The track and the ladies' coach
partially derailed. The two sleepers re-
mained on the track and escaped serious
injury.

the freight train to break in two and the
rear end was showed back several hundred
yards. Six cars remained attached to the
freight engine and were smashed to pieces.
Three of them telescoped one another

clear through the next two. There was
nothing left OF them but splinters.

The Platform.


The platform adopted today is in twelve
sections. It opens with strong protec-
ton plank declaring the Mckinley bill
the best expression Of the protective
principle. following this with demand of
congress and the legislature for legislation
to protect agriculture and labor. A third
plank demands special protection for the
wool growers. The platform also indorses
the silver coinage act of the last congress
and demands free and fair ballot with
out any direct reference to the force bill.
1t favors the regulation of immigration
without specifying any plans. 1t favors
economy IN state and national affairs,
ample educational facilities and the for
feiture Of unearned land grants, pointing
with pride TO the republican psrty's record
in these matters. It favors liberal PEN
sions and heartily indorses the admins
tration of President Harrison, more es-
pecially its foreign policy; commends the
course OF Senator Sherman and his repub-
lican colleagues in the Fifty-frst congress,
and cougratulates the president on select

The Resignation of President Beers of the
New York Life to BE Declined

The Res,gnation of President Beers of the
New York Life to BE Declined.
New YORK, June lS.-The Herald says
President Beers of the New York life
insurance company will resign, but after
the investigation of the company's affairs
by the state insurance department the
directors will refuse to accept the resigna-
ton. and will give Mr.. Beers as clean a
coat of summer immaculateness so far as
the company is concerned as Superintend-
ent Pierce will bestow upon the corpora
ton. President Beers controls sufficient
proxies to dictate this course, and it is
taken to convince the public that the
pollcyholder5 have too much confidence
In President Beers to permit him to
resign. This is what comes of the ex-
posure of the Merzbacher 6efalcation
So, notwithstanding the admirable oppor-
tunity the public apparently had to dis
cover the true inwardness of the myster-
les of life insurance, the insurance lamb
will continue TO be shorn quite after the
same manner as before.
The following telegram was last night
received from New York by the branch
Office OF the company in this city:
In answer to the charges against the company
and its management il is only necessary to say
that the president, as soon as he learned of
them cabled us from London TO request the
insurance department. to make an examin alton
Of the company at once and that this has been
done. HENRY Tuck, Vice. president.

Terrible Rain Storms In Illinois Cause
Grenr Damage.

IerrlDie Ram storms In Illinois Cause
Great Damage.
PEORIA, H., June lS.-A terrible rain
storm swept through the Illinois river
valley last night doing great damage to
crops. gardens and fences.
In Hilton, small town across the river
from Peoria, numerous houses were
washed from their foundations. The in
habitants fled scantily clad to the rail-
road grades and hills. The water rose
in the houses at FarmdaIe, seven miles
east, to a depth of three feet and many
people narrowly escaped drowning. Herds
of cows, horses and hogs were swept
away. Crops throughout large tract in
the valley are utterly ruined.
In Copperas creek valley, just across
the line in Fulton county, a family named
Gray had cabin. When the food left
the banks the father took his three boys
and started to the hills while the mother
refused to leave the house. When half
way across the valley floating log struck
Gray and stunned him. The rushing
water drowned the boys, aged twelve,
eight and five. The father narrowly
escaped by clinging to the log. His wife
climbed to the roof OF the house and was
rescued this afternoon.

Tho State OF Ohio Not to Be Controlled by
Hamilton County Malcontents.
CINCINNATI, June 17.-Governor Camp
bell met and addressed his friends in the
parlors of the Burnett house this even
ing. The attendance was large and the
governor was full Of fire. He said that a
coterie of malcontents in Hamilton
county would not and could not control
the destinies of the democratic party in
the great state of Ohio. Hamilton 6unty
was large county, but junta of fifty
men in it would not be permitted to
thwart the purposes OF the democratic
party in the rest of the state of Ohio.
The democratic convention, he said,
would have 600 delegates in it, and if
Hamilton county sent eighty-two or any
other number of delegates in excess of its
official quota they would not be admitted.
He said he would be nominated for gov
ernor and elected.
Numerously signed protests were read
against the recent action OF the Hamilton
county executive committee in ignoring

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June Is. J
At a special meeting of the recent post
graduate class OF the Georgetown uni
versity school of law, held last evening at
the university law building, resolutions
were passed deploring the death of Mr..
Edward A. Hannegan, with whom they
were associated for two years and who
graduated with high honor in 1890.
The resolutions set forth "that by his
noble bearing throughout our intimate as
sociation with him as classmates he Justly
won and securely held our highest esteem
and admiration; and that, reviewing his
life and talents from the time that asso-
citation begun, we are assured that by his
death We lose one of our number whose
modesty and refinement have made him
an ornament TO society and whose ambi-
ton, industry and individuality gave the
brightest promise of such brilliant success
as would have brought the highest honor
to his alma mater and credit to us as his
class"
The resolutions, signed by Samuel E.

republican chances, was the manifest
preference for Blaine as a presidential can
didate. The Harrisonian officeholders
will be in no fear of a dismissal il they fail
to hustle for the ticket, and under those
circumstances the Office e-holding brigade
will not be bulwark of strength as usual.
An open bid for the alliance vote was
made by selecting a farmer as candidate
for lieutenant-goyernor, but il is not be-
lieved that the bid will be accepted to
any marked extent.
Altogether, while a show of the utmost
harmony has been secured, republican
chances for success are in no way better
than they were before the convention was
held.
