attendance Of the friends OF Nick Hal

done so, that some of the people living
in the vicinity had said they were not
annoyed, and that there was no profane
language. They also said the beer was
not tapped on the plank read, but in a
lot. south of and adjoining the footwalk.

A RAILROAD WRECK
On the Pan-Handle-A Brakeman Killed
and Fifteen Cars Mashed.

On the Pan-Handle-A Brakeman Killed
and Fifteen Cars Mashed.
A most disastrous wreck happened on
the Panhandle at Skelley's station at
$50 Monday evening. A brakeman was
killed, two engines and fifteen freight
cars were smashed into SmithereenS and
scattered over the track to such an ex-
tent that all trains were delayed twelve
hours. A freight train coming East and
'one going West cOllided with a fearful
|craShAthe East bound enigma talasNn y
ing tfB West bound. Tnereport OF the
crash was heard for several miles. 1t
was first said that the accommodation
had run of the track at GOuld's, and
that six persons were killed, but this
was soon learned to be a false report.
The accident was the most disastrous In
the destruction OF property the Pan
handle has experienced for some time.
The two engines and fifteen loaded
freight cars were totally wrecked and
the cargOes were scattered on every side.
The loss will be thousands Of dollars.
Particulars OF the wreck are hard to OBJ
tain. A dozen different railroad men
interviewed did not know Of the acct
dent, while others knew Of it but did
not know the name of the brakeman or
the extent of the accident. The cause
OF the collision is said TO be the neglect
Of the operator at Skelleys to deliver or
ders to one OF the trains. The wreck
train with full force and the work
train with thirty men removed the
wreck and repaired the track. The
name OF the dead brakeman is Thomas
Thomson, who lived in DenniSon, to
which place his remains were taken.

SOUTH SIDE BLAZE.
CHARLES KErrLKRS SHOE STORE DAMAGED By
FIRE AND WATER.
The Origin Of the Fire Mystsry-IOss Between
$1,000 and $500, Covered
By Insurance.

This morning shortly after midnight,
Mrs. Chas. Kettler, wife Of the well
known member OF the Board OF Public
Works, who lives at No. 1924 Jacob
street, awoke and found the room filled
with smoke. She Immediately gave the
alarm to the members of the household,
some of whom were half suffocated, and
an investigation was made. 1t was
found that store room on the nrst
floor, In which boot and shoe business
was carried on, was all ablaze.
Mr.. Will Kettler ran to the electric
motor barn and telephoned to the
Eighth Ward Engine House. and an
other man turned in an alarm from box
GA, at the corner of Jacob and Four
tieth streets. The department re-
sponded In a short time, the Eighth
Ward reel being the first to arrive on
the scene. The fire by this time had
gained considerable Roadway, In spite
of the efforts of neighbors to put 1t out
with buckets of water.
An attachment was made oy the
Eighth ward hose company, and the
fire was soon under control. BY half
past twelve the blaze was extinguished,
and an examination was made by the
firemen, under the direction OF Chief
Healy, to ascertain the source OF the
five. The effort proved fruitless. Mr..
Kettler stated that no fire or light was
burning in the storeroom, and gentle
man who passed half hour before said
he noticed nothing suspicious. The
shelving, counters and ceiling were
badly burned, and tho stock OF ooots
and shoes, valued at about $4,000, was
deluged with water, and also damaged
by the fire. The smell of the burning
shoes was almost unbearable.
The loss on the stock and building
will amount to between $1,000 and
81, 200, and is fully covered by insur-
ance. The stock is insured in the Stand
ard, of this city, for $1,000.

SAD DROWNING.
4 POURTETN-YEAR-OLD MwSBOY NKYfS
DRATH AT TIE WHARF.
Charn. Prayer Falls Into the River Will. Step
ping From One Boa. to Another
and browns

Charles Prayer, a fourteen-year-oId
lad, while stepping from the steamer
keystone State to the Hudson, which
was lying alongside Of it, missed his
footing, fell between the two boats and
was drowned. An effort was made to
recover the body, but up to last evening
was unsuccessful.
Prayer is q bright boy, who has been
selling newspapers at the depots and
along the wharf for several years, and
was quite we'll known. His father is
William II. Prayer, a wood finiSher, en-
plOyed at Friend & Sons furniture eS-
adjustment, who lives on Thirteenth
street. Yesterday morning at S o'clock
the Keystone State, of the Pittsburg and
Cincinnati packet line, was lying at the
wharf taking on freight, when the
Hudson, Of the same line, arrived in
port on her way to Pittsburg and land
ed against the Keystone. Prayer was
down On the Keystone, ready to board
the Hudson with his stock of papers
under his arm. When the Hudson
neared the Keystone and was at dis
lance which he thought he could safely
cover, he jumped from the bow of the
boat, and instead OF alighting safely on
the Hudson, he struck the guard rail
with his stomach, and unable to recover
himself, dropped in the river between
the two boats, which were now very
close to each other.
praQar had hepn arOund the river a
great deal, and is said 20 be a good
swimmer, so that the theory that his
breath was knocked out by the force Of
his fall against the guard is probably
correct. Persons who were along the
landing at the time say that he arose to
the surface below the boats but once,
and then sank from sight. II he had
showed above the water near the boats,
he would probably have been rescued,
as the alarm was Immediately given,
and the crews on both boats made an
effort to save him. His hat and bundle
of papers flOated of down the river.
A Skiff was at once procured, and the
river dragged for the body, but without
success. Another effort will be made to-
day to recover the body. The parents
Of the unfortunate lad are Frustrated
with grief over the sad affair, and have
the sympathy of the community. The
father Is confined TO his bed on account
Of illness. Mrs. Prayer went down to
the wharf as soon as she learned Of the
accident, and was so overcome by
excitement that she tainted, and had to
be taken back to her home in cab.

Two Iittle Girls Rescued.

Last night about quarter past nine
o'clock Councilman Emsheimer and Mr..
w. A. Welty came into police head
quarters with two little girls, Girty
smith. of No. 167 Seventeenth street,
and Stalia Smith, of Fifteenth street,
who had been rescued from the clutches
of about forty or fifty colored youths and
boys on Chapline street, In the neigh
borhood Of the intersection Of Market
alley. The girls were going up the
street on an errand, when they were at
tackled by the colored youths, and were
chased around over the street at live
" rate, the girl first named being so
badly frightened that for time gentle
men who went TO their assistance
thought she would go into spasms;;. Inc
girls had their hair pulled, at a lively
rate, and would doubtless have been
badly handled had the young toughs
not been driven of. The girls were
taken to their homes and the Second
ward police notified.

BRIBED BY INSURGENTS.
Europeans Charged With Trying to De-
stroy Balmaceda's New Cruisers.

LONDON, August 4.-The Secretary Of
the Gillian Legation is authority for
the statement that large sums Of money
have been contributed by interested Eu-
ropeans to detain and, II possible, to
destroy the new CHILEAN ships of war.
The opposition shown to permitting
the irOnclads to obtain crews Is known,
the Secretary says, to have been in
spired from London. But few weeks
ago collection was taken up among the
leading firms friendly to the insurgents,
ostensibly for use in providing for sick
and injured foreigners in Chilli, but
really the object being to purchase the
favor Of those who might be in a posi-
ton to assist the insurgents and dam
age Balmaceda.
In Lisbon the money plan was more
influential than in Paris. The Portu-
guese officials were hungry for brides,
and accepted with yoraclty the sums Of
fered by the Congressionalists. When
one of the new CHILEAN ironclads ap-
peared in the harbor Of Lisbon the Por-
tugese officials tried to earn the brides
they had received, by refusing to per-
nit the vessel to obtain recruits, either
as sailors or marines. The Errazuriz
managed, however, to get recruits, and
is now safely on its way to America.
The Gillian Legations, both in Lon
.-sce.sJ 1890. = ..e'~
over the treatment that Balmaceda has
received in this matter at the hands OF
European governments, and they pre-
dict that when the war is over, with the
Balmaceda party triumphant, there will
be a reckoning both for France and
England.
