Terrorism, at Pore- Au-Prince.

New YORK, June 19.-According to
a letter received from Port-au-Prlnce
Yesterday, President Hippolyte at
tempted on May 90 to take four political
prisoners from the Mexican consulate IL
the Haytien capital. When the entire
diplomatic corps called on the Presl'
dent, May 30, to protest against this vlo-
latlon OF international law, Hippolyte
attempted to play high-handed game
of bluff, and he might have succeeded
had not the German consul threatened
10 report the matter to his government.
Minister Fred. Douglass, it is said IN
the letter, stood trembling with fear
and heard the black ruler insult the flag
of every civilized nation almost, lnclu-
ding his own. and he did not dare offer
any protest. Terror reigns supreme at
Port-au-Prince Hlppolyte continues
to kill his supposed enemies, but they
accumulate faster than he can kill them.
The real instigators and leaders OF the
movement against him have escaped
his vengeance. Some of them are Sec
retly at work in Port-au-Prince. Hip
polvte. the writer thinks. is undoubtedly
crazy. 1t is stated that when the consuls
called on him he became angry and
rushed out of the room, and was soon
after heard playing flute in the next
room. The consuls were leaving, when
the minister OF foreign affairs came IN
and begged them to remain, say
ing the President had been summoned
away on important matters, but would
return immediately. The minister then
went out and apparently remonstated
with Hippolyte, as he soon re,entereo
the room and excused himself on the
same grounds mentioned by his minis.

DASHED INTO 4 DITCH.
FEARFUL FATE OF AN EXCURSION
TRAIN NEAR CLEVELAND.

Eight Cars Leave tha Track-Several
Coaches Smashed to SplInters-Forty
People Injured~several Fatally. Train
Was Running Sixty Miles an Hour.
CLEVELAND, Jun 2l.-A frghtful
wreck occurred on the Nickle Plate
railroad thirteen miles west of Clevr-
land this afternoon. The West Side
Street Railway company gave an eXcur-
sion to Oakpolnt for the benefit Of their
employees. There were two trains con.
sisting of ten cars each. The fist sec
tion left on time at 2 30. The second
section was delayed and did not leave
Cleveland until abont 2 o'clock.
When three miles west OF Dover, the
second section jumped the track, ditch
ing eight of the ter 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.
Edwaru Rodgers was horribly man
gled. His head was crushed into pulp,
one arm partly severed and his breast
crushed. Rodgers was {. member OF
the Shamrock baseball club, and at one
time was a professional player on he
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.
a man taken to the University hos
pital died this evening. Many women
and children had their arms broken
and were otherwise injured.
The newsboy. Jonn Higgins, was
seen by a 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 whep 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.
It's not known what caused the train
to leave the track but it's supposed the
track spread.

"The Devils Sfnk-Ho!e."

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, June 22.-J. G..
Carr, an old Texan, for two terms Ser
geant-at-Arms of the House of Repre-
Sentatives and at present interested IN
the presentation of Indian depreciation
claims at Washington, has returned
from the Rio Grande section and re-
ports singular discovery in the CEN
ire of Edwards County. It's known as
the "Devil's Sink-Hole." is a clrcu-
lar opening six feet across and descend
ing perpendicularly.
Recently it was partially explored.
\ man was let down by a rope loO feet
and at that point he found a ledge from
which ran passage way seven feet
high and wide enough for three men
abreast, and running at steep decline.
He followed it 300 feet and came to an
immense lake of water, ice cold. He
had no means Of determining its eX-
tent, but stone hurled with all his
force splashed in the water fully seven
ty yards away.
The bank of the lake was covered
with pieces of rock looking as though
they had been blasted. Some were
brought to the surface, and they assay
ed about thirty ounces OF silver to the
ton. All of that region is rich IN silver
indications, and it is supposed that the
mysterious cavern is an abandoned
Spanish mine and has other exits and
entrances. 1t Will be thoroughly ex-
plored by competent prospectors.

Dsastrons CIoud-burst.

CINCINNATI, June IA Knoxville
Tenn. special says: At New Manvilse,
Green county, Saturday, a cload-burst
did great damage. The place is remote
from railroad and telegraph communi-
cation, but information comes today of
the calamity. The fall Of water was
something terrific, and a small creek be-
came raging river, 100 yards wide.
The storehouse, residence and outbuild-
ings Of T. n. King were swept away,
the flood coming so quickly he did not
even have time to close his store doors.
The postoliice was kept III his store,
and everything was lost. An iron safe
weighing 1900 pounds was carried one
fourth Of mile by the force OF the
water. a number Of other houses were
carried away, and all the crops along the
creek bottom lands were destroyed.
The water came down so fast that the
people barely had time to flee to the
ridge, and If this had not been near:
there would have been serious loss OF
life. Considerable stock was drowned,
but DO life was lost so far a; reported.
The property damage wit amount to a
large sum.

a Malicious Mule.

SEBEwA1NG, Mich, June ia terri
bic fight between man and an lnfurl-
ated mule occurred in Heyman's black
smith shop on Wednesday. The mule
had an aversion to being shod. and had
to be thrown. Heyman said he would
shoe that mule in the regular way or
die. With the help of three men. Hey
man finally fixed the shoes and went
to the door to cool off. lie had hardly
done so when the mule broke away
from the man holding him, and with
distended jaws made for Heyman. The
mule chased Heyman all around the
shop, stretched his swapping jaws to
Heyman's face and bit off the nose and
lower right cheek. Heyman fell to the
floor and the mule deliberately pounded
his PROSTATE body. The doctors fear
Heyman will die of poison from the
foam-hecked lips of the mule.

A SlnaShup.

AIKEN, S. g., June ia general
smashup occurred on the South CaroE-
ma road near Aiken at o'clock this
morning. a freight train from Angus
ia to Charleston, consisting of twenty
four boxes of coal, stalled on the bill
about mile from the depot. The con-
ductor divided the train into two sec
tions, leaving the second behind, lu-
tending going on with the first to the
shifting yard. When the first section
reached the cut that runs through the
heart of the city the train parted by the
breaking of coupling pin. The de-
tached part, owing to the terrible In
clination, rolled back toward the Sec
ond section. Owing to the distance,
the detached part had chance to GO
with great speed, and when it reached
the boxes left behind it utterly dtmol-
ished them. -Four boxes were spin.
tered TO pieces and pitched on top or
one another, the coal being scattered
everywhere A construction train with
a large force of hands set to work to
clear the debris and repair the track,
which was injured. All trains going
north and south were delayed until
1:2O .. H., when the train from Charles
ton to Augusta passed over in safety.
This wreck occurred where the bank IS
100 feet high, a slanting position, and
it was fortunate that no brakemen
we're aboard the wrecked cars. The
coal will be saved. A brakeman on
a Charleston bound train was killed
this morning at Hamburg. He was
caught between two cars and mashed
