a Minister and Il Mason.

BOSTON, June 22.-During the regular
Monday meeting Of the Baptist ministers
in Chapel Hall this forenoon the Rev J.
B. Stoddard addressed the Conference,
at its suggestion, upon the influence of
secret societies upon the Church, and in
the course Of his remarks he strongly de-
nounced Masonry, declaring that when
q man swears allegiance to Masonry he
swears allegiance to code anta3onstic
to God.
The Rev Mr.. Cleveland, of Melorsc,
who was in the audience, arose to point
of order, and, with suppressed emotion,
said: II am q Mason and | cannot listen
to this unjust and uncallcd for abuse"
Chairman Moran put the question TO
the meeting Of sustaining the point of
order, and it was dcfcatcd--50 to 7.
Instantly Mr. Cleveland rose and. ad.
dressing the secretary, said: II request
that YOU drop my name from The roll Of
membership Of this Conference. | do
not care TO be n member OF any body
that refuses to sustain any decent point
Of order"
Then taking his hat he left the hall
and StOddard finished his address.

DASHED INTO A DITCH.
FEARFUL FATE OF AN EXCURSION
TRAIN NEAR CLEVELAND.

Eight Cars Leave tho Track-Several
Coaches Smashed to Splinters-Forty
People Ipjured-Several Fatally--Train
Was Running Sixty Miles an Hour.
CLEVELAND, June 21.-A frightful
wreck occurred on the Nickle Plate
railroad thirteen miles west of Cleye-
land this afternoon. The West Side
Street hallway company gave an eXcur-
sion to Oakpoint for the benefit of their
employees. There were two trains con.
SlSting OF ten cars each. The first sec
ton left on time at 9 30. The second
section was delayed and did not leave
Cleveland until about 9 o'clock.
When three miles west of Dover, the
second section jumped the track, ditch
ing eight of the ten cars. Seven of the
cars were overturned and four of them
were torn into SplinterS. Many women
and children were caught under the
debris. About forty were badly hurt.
Edward Rodgers was horribly man
gled. Ills head was crushed into Il pulp
one arm partly severed and his breast
crushed. Rodgers was 4 member of
the Shamrock baseball club, and at one
time was a professional player on the
Toronto team.
Ten or twelve were fatally injured
but their names could not be learned
owing to the reticence of the hospital
employees.
Every ambulance in the city was
called and met the special train that
went out for injured. They were taken
to the different hospitals.
y man taken to the University hos
pital died this evening. Many women
and children had their arms broken
and were otherwise in ured.
The newsboy. John Higgins, was
seen by Press News reporter, but he
was so badly hurt he could not give a
clear account of the wreck, but SAYS
the train was running sixty miles an
hour when they left the track. His
clothes were torn nearly off. His face
was cut and he was badly bruised about
the body.
The engine buried itself in the ditch.
The engineer and fireman saved their
lives by jumping.
The cars rolled down the embank-
ment six feet into ditch which was
filled with muddy water. The passen-
gers were covered with mud and as
nearly everyone was bleeding from cuts
received, it was difficult to tell how
badly they were hurt.
The car next to the engine was
mashed into splinters and all who were
in this car were seriously hurt. There
were at least twenty that had to be car
ried from the special train that brought
them to Cleveland to the ambulances
which numbered fifteen or more.
1t IS not known what caused the train
to leave the track but it is supposed the
track spread.

Probably Murdered.

COLUMBIA, June 20-Jane Merritt, "A
white woman, was found OH a rail road
track here this morning with her head
mashed Off and ground to pieces. She
was seen lying on the track as the train
approached. Before it could be stopped
the engine passed over her. From the
fact that the body was coli and stiff
and blood was not flowing when ex-
amined minute or two later it is be-
lieved she was dead long before the en-
gine passed.
This added to the fact that along the
bank there are evidences of body be
ing dragged, together with footsteps
creates the suspicion that she was muir
dered. A coroner's jury rendered a
verdict of death by the hands Of PER
son or persons unknown. The theory
OF suicide is also advanced as the w0-
man was poor creature recently dis
charged from the aims house and last
night she was heard to say she would
rather be dead and with the devil rath-
or than to live such a life.

The Fight of tho British Consul ut wuhu
in Defence OF tho DIIssionarIos

SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-Thc
North China Daily News In its account
OF the Wuhu riots, says:
1t has been reported for several days
that mob Of Chlneses had determined
to loot aid burn the property of the
.Jesults at Wuhu. 1t was rumOred that
children had been killed and their eyes
taken out to make medicine for the Jesuit
fathers. On the afternoon of Tuesday,
May II, mob of Chinese gathered
about the premises Of the priests and
broke through the walls, eventually set
ting fire to the Cathedral and other build
ings, after driving out the missionaries
and rillaging the palace.
The mob then proceeded to the English
consulate and destroyed considerable
property by throwing stones. The ar
! rival OF Toatai, the local magistrate, and
the GOODNESS Of the British consul saved
the buildings from being set on fire. The
consul and his wife escaped from the
mob by dressing in Chinese costumes
and hurrying to the custom house, where
they embarked with other foreign resi-
dents in the China Navigation Company's
receiving ship.
a number Of foreigncss, headed by
the consul, armed themselves and pass
cd the time at the custom house, and,
assisted by Toatai, repelled the mob,
who twice during the night made an at
tempt to loot and set on fire the custom
house and residences Of foreign officials.
The next morning All immense crowd
again set lire to the custom house and
surrounding buildings but the customcs
staff, fully armed, charged the natives
and again put out the fires. In the af-
ternoon three Chinese yunboats, which
were escortiny Shcn Ping Cheng, Gov
crnor of Anhul, up the river, arrived on
the scene, and learning Of the riot began
to fire blank cartridges, which had the
effect of frightening the mob.
Some two hundred soldiers arrived
from TAPPING Flu, and this lent addition
al protection to The foreign residents.
The mob did not make any further de-
monstratlon against the Methodist Epis-
copal (America) Mission, but, advised
by the British consul, the missionaries
from that point also embarked on the
Tensing, which brought them, together
with the ladies and children of Wuhu, to

 Those who can buy coal needn't freeze to death for some time to come, according to the bulletin just issued from the cen sus office, relative to the coal product of the States and territories, west of the Mississippi river. In 1880 the product was 4, ,5s4, ,s24 tons while in 1889 it had increased to 16,067, ,500 tons. North Dakota, Texas, New Mexico and the In- dian territory have besn added to the list of coal producing districts since 1880. West of the Mississippi there are now 5s9 regular coal mining districts including 1,326 local mines, and the total value of the output in 1889, was s24, AIS, ,262, of which over $17, ,000, ,000 went as wages to 36, 165 employees. The quality of the coal varies in different districts, but comprises Ignite, bituminous and anthracite, all suitable for steam and heating purposes, and much of it well adapted to gas, cok- ing and smelting purposes. The coal measures of Kansas alone cover an area of about 10, 900 square miles, underlying the entire eastern portion of the State

DEMOCRATIC DISAPPOINTMENT

DEMOCRATIC DISAPPOINTMENT
 The Democrats have been grievously dis appointed in the Mckinley tariff ,and there are indications that the Mail Subsidy law will not please them any better. Ex-Con- gressman Farquhar, at the request of Post master General Wanamaker, has been mak- ing inquiries with the object of ascertaining the probable results of the operations of the law. In his opinion six and possibly ten lines of steamships will be put in oper- ation under the new law by the time that congress shall assemble in December, and so much done that the Democrats cannot secure any considerable support either to withhold the appropriations or to repeal the law The threats of the Democrats to repeal the law are ridiculous, because the law authorizes the making of ten year contracts. It is a valid statute. Those contracts will undoubtedly all be made prior to the first Monday in December. They will have been entered into, and the work under them will have begun, and the contracts will be a claim upon the government, whether 8 Demo- cratic house should succeed in forging a repeal of the law or not. Mir. Farquhar has been encouraged to believe that the Inman company will take advantage of the law and will build in this country two new fast steamers in time to comply with the provisions of the act He thinks also
 that there will be Q line from New York to Buenos Ayres, another from Tampa to some of the South American ports, and one from California to Australia, all of which will be established and the con- tracts let for them before the first of next December.
 It is distressing to the Democrats to be so disappointed, but the country can stand
