DENVER, May 19.-At the afternoon
session of the transit Mississippi congress
Mayor Shakespeare of New Orleans
made a speech, in which he referred to
the recent events in New Orleans and said
he thanked the people of the United
States for the manner in which he was
upheld in trying to DO his duty as an
American citizen. He was glad that it
was him who was put in the position to
enunciate those few ideas of American
principles that were left to contend for.
American citizens should have no fear of
assassination.
Ex-Governor Anthony of Kansas. in
an address, complimented Shakespeare =
management of the New Orleans affair
and said: I'VE open our doors wide for
the nations of the earth and permit them
to pluck the fruits Of liberty and equality
as We pluck them, but in order to cntitlc
them to do that they must be American
citizens"
At 5 p. IN. the congress adjourned until
tomorrow. The slate made up by the
committee on permanent organization is
thought to be: Chairman. Ex-Governor
Anthony of Kansas; first secretary. b. f.
Forsythe of New Mexico; assistant, T..
Richardson OF Texas, and a number of
vice presidents including N. b. Gwynn of
Idaho. II. W. Lawrence of Utah. and J..
C. Baird of Wyoming.
There will probably be a struggle over
the chairman. The free silver men want
Ferry of Utah, and another faction wants
Anthony, and it is not improbable that
the convention may compromise on
Shakespeare of New Orleans.

much more than was due him. A letter
accompanied the money, and this was
signed Honesty As was customary,
the $72 was placed in the safe of the as
sistant clerk for safe keeping until it coald
be turned into the treasury. When the
money was called for it was not there.
The chief of division who was responsible
for it made inquiry as to its whereabouts,
and, as was deyelODed in testimony given
today before Assistant Secretaries Chan
der and Bussey. it was found to be in the
possession of Green B. Raum, .Jr., he
having borrowed it and apI lied it to his
personal uses. Yesterday, several days
after Mr.. Raum's demanded resignation
had been handed in, the money was re-
turned by Mr.. Raum.
This is the history in brief of one of the
most surprising cases of petty corruption
that has disgraced any administration.
The officials of the interior department
who investigated the case and accepted
Mr.. Raum's resignation. knowing him to
nave taken money that did not belong to
him, hasten to say that the commissioner
was entirely ignorant of his sons actions.
1t seems almost incredible, however, that
the commissioner could have been 80
blind, and il he was. it only proves hat
he conducts the pension bureau in a very
careless and haphazari style. Not to
know what appointments and promotions
were being made and by whose order is to
convict the commissioner OF criminal care
l~essness. But whether or not, he is di-
rectly or indirectly responsible for the
misconduct OF his son, the revelations will
lead to a more thorough investigation of
the commissioner and his official actions
bar was permitted by the Republicans on
the investigating committee last winter.
President Harrison may undertake to in
vestigatc Gen. Raum himself. He told
him last spring. it IS understood, that il
the house of representatives adjourned
without adopting the whitewash report
made by the Republican committee, his
tenure of office would be short. Gen.
Raum did not secure the adoption of the
report, and in the light of the present
scandal the president may carry out his
threat.

TARRYTowN, n. Y, May l9.-Just
before noon today a work train on the
Hudson River road was blown to atoms
near here by the explosion Of dynamite
being transported to use on a track under
construction. There were probably thirty
three men on the train, eighteen OF whom
were killed and the remainder seriously,
some fatally. wounded. Many OF the
dead were blown into the river, and five
bodies still remain there. The train was
torn to atoms, the tracks ripped from the
road bed aud a great hole torn in the
earth. There were twenty four cases of
dynamite in the first car on the train each
containing fifty pounds. A spark from
the engine, it is said, set fire to "A greasy

the untortunates on the train were hurled
in every direction. A terrible sight was
witnessed by those who hurried to the
spot. The track was torn up for the
space of 600 feet. the rails bent in all
shapes, while dead bodies aud terribly
mangled men could be seen about. still
living. The locomotive was blown out of
all semblance to one, and the tender had
been blown half way into the river. Some
men were found hundreds of yards away
from the track, while others were taken
out FROM the hole made b. the explosion.
The wounded, in most cases, were hor-
rlbly mutllated, in several Instances arms
and legs being torn off. As rapidly as
possible the wounded were cared for by
surgeons and removed to hospitals. Ten
of those killed were picked up
along the track while five were taken from
the river. Three of the injured died
shortly after being picked up. 1t Is be
lieved there are still some bodies in the
river, and the total number of killed will
be twenty or more. The killed are: John

A panic occurred in the high school of
Tarrytown among the pupils when the
building was violently shaken by the ex-

occurred. The children ran wildly into
the streets, but fortunately no one was

There is no better investment for a
business man than to have a neat and
attractive place of business. In the
larger cities we find it the prevailing
rule, that office and business places are
made neat, attractive and comfortable

style of doing things, and neat and in

Captain Nat. d. Moore, who disputes with

first to discover the existence of iron ore on the
Go5eDic range, is now operating in the new
iron fields of Virginia, and is said to be on the
high road road to renewed prosperity. Whether
the genial Captain first discovered the indica-
tions of ore in this vicinity, matters not; he
was certainly the first to commence the task
of getting capital interested in opening up

deposit of high grade ore in this country.
All honor to Captain N. d. Moore for the pioneer
hardslips he endured for years before he finally
witnessed the proof of his belief in the new
range.
1t is such men that Virginia wants at
this time, and we voice the sentiment of
him and his gentlemanly partner, Capt.

to get it is the puzzle So here we have it.
We've thought it all over long before you rea-
lied the fact that the time is upon you to
make your selections for your Christmas pre-
sents. So we have prepared ourselves for the
seasons trade by making special trip to the
northern markets in order to secure the nov
elites which cannot be had any other way, and
we've get EN- and worse than we ever had
them before. The truth of the business is we
think Of what we are doing We never wait
until the season is over and then "cry over
split milk" The only way to sell goods is to
carry the stock and let the people know that
we are in business to do business Some mer-
chants have said we were foolish to make two
trips to the market III one season, but we can't
be satisfied to rest in easy chairs and talk pol
tics, &c, and let Our business run itself No,
those "good old days" have past and we can't
be satisfied to rest at home when we know
that the markets are crowded with values
which we should be showing to Our trade
we're never caught mapping" But oh my!
what a stock we did buy. Some for the old,
