The Opposition to the Absorption of the o.
g. NJ. by the b. & o. Scores a Point.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 15.-The Ohio and
Mississippi railroad stockholders meeting
adjourned from last week, was held to-day.
The principal business was the election of
three directors in place of three whose
terms expire, but much interest was mani
tested owing to the negotiations which
are said to have been completed subject to
ratification for making the Ohio and
Mississippi part of the Baltimore and
Ohio system. While in the nature of the
tran saction it could not be presented to this
meeting for action, it was referred in a
general way and was made the reason for a
motion to adjourn the meeting to Novem-
ber 10 to give the stockholders time to con-
slider the matter. The motion prevailed
The adjournment was not made without
opposition. There were present Messrs.
Sloan Lord, of Baltimore, and Mr. Tracy,
of Springfield, Ill, representing the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad interests, and
they opposed the adjournment. They had
an attorney, Edward Colston, to speak
for them. The Ohio and Mississippi con-
tingent, apparently opposed to the Balti-
more and Ohio deal, were represented by
Attorney W. M. Ramsey, who said they
were not informed as to the nature of the
proposed negotiations or arrangements, and
thev wanted to become informed so that
they could vote intelligently on the subj ect
in their choice of directors

up the indignation of the delegates from
that church. One of them rose to point of
order that the speaker had called the Primi-
tive Methodists imposters, and wanted the
words retracted. Mr. Atkinson denied that
he had done so, and begged the presiding
officer to ''knock him down." meaning, of
course, to rap the interrupter to order. This
led to great confusion. THE Primitive Meth
odists were all on their feet demanding a
retraction, and threatening to withdraw
from the conference.
DR.. Stephenson and other Wesleyans be-
seeched Dr Atkinson to withdraw his re-
mark and apologize, but he bluntly refused
to do so, asserting that he had nothing to
apologize for; that if delegates would not
consume his time he would explain. AS
they persisted in their demand for retraction
he characterized their stupidity in forcible
terms, and seeing no chance of restoring
harmony, the presiding officer, who had ex,
hausted every effort to calm the troubled
waters, declared the session adjourned.

A JOURNAL IN MOURNING.
THREE MEMBERS OF THE CHICAGO
INTER OCEAN STAFF DEAD.

ihey Were Riding on an Engine Which
Was Wrecked on an Illinois Road-The
Engineer Also KiIled-An Buried Be-
meath the Ruins.
CHICAGO, Oct. ia horrible accident,
resulting in the death of three members of
the Inter Ocean staff and the serious injury
of several other passengers, occurred on the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois Railroad this
morning about II o'clock, at Crete, Ill. The
dead are: Leonard Washburn, sporting re-
porter for the Inter Ocean; Frederick Henry,
reporter who came here recently from
Louisville; J. A. McAfferty, an artist, rec
emily from st. Louis; James Clark, engineer.
The train left Evansville early this
morning and proceeded safely to Crete,
where it ran in an open switch. The men
who were killed were on the engine, Henry
and McAferty having gone out for the pur-
pose of writing up and illustrating mid
night ride on the fast train, and Wash
burne, who was returning to Chicago from
an Indiana trip, having joined his friends
on the engine. The accident came without
warning, and as the locomotive plunged
from the track the four men were caught
and completely buried beneath the wreck.
Instructions were sent from Chicago to
have the bodies shipped to this city imme-
diately. A reply to this dispatch said that
the remains of McAferty and Henry had
not been recovered from the wreck and
were supposed to be under the engine.
Immediately upon the receipt of telegram
telling of the accident, President G.. W.
Saul, of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois
Railroad, started with a special train for
the scene of the wreck.
The engine and baggage car were COM
pletely destroyed. Two passenger coaches
and the sleeper were more or less damaged.
The round house at the switch was also de-
stroyed and fell upon the wrecked engine.
Fireman Lafferty jumped from the engine
and is slightly injured about the breast and
stomach.
Leonard D. Washburne was the sporting
editor of the Inter Ocean. He was especially
well known in base ball circles. He trav-
eled with the Chicago club in their journeys,
and his articles attracted widespread at
tention.

PROVED HIS INNOCENCE AT LAST.
After Il Years an Alleged Murderer Finds
His Supposed Victim Alive.

His Supposed victim Alive.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 15.-James A Brock,
formerly of st. Louis, but now a resident of
Ell Paso, Tex, who was yesterday guest at
the Richelieu, is the hero in most sensa-
tional occurrence in criminal annals. For
IA years Mr. Brock has labored under the
suspicion of being the murderer of his
cousin, Frank Woosley, having been twice
indicted in Shackelford county, Tex, but
he now stands before the world an innocent
man, having, after an incessant search, To-
Gated his missing relative in Benton, Ark.
In 1873 Mr.. Brock bought a ranch and
settled at Ft. Griffin, Tex, stocked it with
cattle and began a prosperous business in
cattle raising. In 1876 he sold half in
terest in the ranch to cousin, Frank
Woosley, the latter bringing his mother
and family to live on the ranch from Lon
don, o. In May, 1877. Frank woosley dis
appeared and Brock was suspected of hav-
ing murdered him. He felt confident
that Woosley was not dead, but that it was
a conspiracy among the Woosleys to rob
him of his ranch. He spent large sum of
money to locate Woosley, and offered ST.
900 reward for his discovery. About three
mouths ago detective located Woosley in
Benton, Ark. He claims to have positive
evidence that will convict the, Woosleys of
conspiracy.

Paris-Made Female Finery.
NEW YORK, October 15.-[Specidl. 1T
was announced at the Custom House to-day
chat 26 Paris gowns and wraps seized on
La Bretagne on Monday had been all packed
carefully in two big trunks and small
trunk belonging to Mrs. W. Minnick. Sur
veyor Lyon has found that Mrs. Minnick
was in the employ of Mary A. Con-
nelly, a Fifth avenue dressmaker. Surveyor
Lyon says that most of the gowns were for
Nine. Connolly. The seized clothes are
valued at about $4,000 by the appraisers,
who say that they are even more expensive
than the famous Astor dresses recently sold
at auction.
The gowns, which are made up in different
sizes apparently on special orders, are all
the work of Worth or Felix There are seven
ladies' coats and opera cloaks, each valued
at from $500 to S400; one green velvet cape,
nine wraps one black satin wrapper, silk
crepe shawl and several beautifully embroid-
cred silk night robes. The fnery has been
very adroitly packed. Each garment was
hidden away under worn house wrapper or
an old skirt
Nine. Connolly is the wife of John E.
Fitzgerald, of Boston. A fight will proba-
bly, be made in the courts to recover the
seized goods.

A HALF-w1TTED COWBOYS YARN.
That Is All the Reported City of Rome Ship
wreck Amounts To.

ST. JOHNS, N. F., Oct. ia dispatch
from Magistrate Carey at Trepassey says
that there is no truth whatever in the re-
port that the steamer City of Rome was lost
off st. Shott's. The story is hoax perpe-
trated by half-witted cowboy of the
steamer Mendego, which was lost at Marine
Cove.
The operator at Trepassey SAYS Constable
Sutton arrived this evening from Peters
river and says the people there know moth
ing about a wreck reported by John Bren-
nan. Lundergan, whom Brennan claims
to have been rescued, denies that part of
the story and says he never saw Brennan.
As to Brennan's being cowboy from the
Mondego wreck, the fact is Magistrate
Carey did not see the fellow, and even this
story is doubted. No one knows where
Brennan came from, but it is quite certain
he did not come from Peters river, and
that reported wreck is hoax, as no vestige
of wreckage has been seen on the coast be-
tween Peters river and Trepassey, which
covers the section of coast which Brennan
made the scene of his story.

PATENTS STILL PLENTIFUL.
The Manufacture of Timed Plate Will
Stimulate Native Ingenuity.

Stimulate Native Ingenuity.
Major n. Bailey, of Washington, was at
the Duquesne yesterday. He is patent at
torney, and in referring to patents he said
that the number being applied for was about
as usual. There was no diminution. He
expected that the manufacture of timed
plate, which, he was Informed, would be-
come extensive in this country, would necessi-
tate many improvements on the old methods.
The native ingenuity of the people would
be taxed to invent machines for ohespening
the cost.
81 wonder you people get along" he
said, with so many street car lines. You
find them everywhere now, and they must
greatly impede traffic. I also notice you
employ both underground and overhead sys-
TENS for providing power. One of the ben
efts of living under the rule of paternal
government, like we do at Washington, is
that Congress legislates for us in this mat
ter of street traffic. Congress says we shall
use only cables or electricity stored. No
overhead or naked wires are allowed, and
we find we get on very well without them" 4"

THE PANAMA CANAL AGAIN.
An Isthmus Journalist Says French Capital
lists VIII Take Up the Work.

An Isthmus Journalist Says French Capital
lists VIII Take Up the Work.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 15-J. F. Boyd,
editor of the Panama Iimes-Star, arrived
from Panama on the steamer San Juan to-
day. He stated that he passed Guatemala
on his way here, but the steamer did not re-
main long enough to enable him to study
the political situation there. However, he
gathered that aside from the unusual politi-
cal excitement that precedes all elections
everything is quiet in that country.
He stated there is great hope among the
people of the isthmus that the Panama
Canal will be taken hold of by French
capitalists and pushed to speedy compile
tion. Max Cristopel, a well-knowA French
financier, is willing to take hold providing
the reports of the engineers are satisfactory
to him and the French Government will
sanction the project. AT present all lead
ing fanciers Of France are at the watering
places, but will return the latter part Of
this month, when it is expected something
definite will be known. Boyd thinks the
canal will be completed in from four to five
years, as 16 or II miles of work have been
done on the Atlantic side.
