BUTTE'S SMOKE ROW.
1t Comes Pretty Near Generating
Riot.

Riot.
Special to the Globe
BUTTE. Mont, Dec. 16.-For hours to-
day it looked as though mob of deter
mined citizens would march en- mass
out to Meaderyille and tear to pieces
the works of the Boston and Montana
company. Tho city struggled between
riot and law, but law finally won the
day. Last night dodgers flooded the
city, calling the citizens to a
mass meeting TO he held in
front Of the city hall The
city authorities, however, had al
ready taken the matter in their own
hands and late last night, having re-
ceived no satisfactory answer from
PRESIDENT Bigclow, of the company at
Boston, Mayor Mueller engaged Con-
tractor Winters to begin work in the
morning in covering the five heaps
whose SulphurOus smoke has for week
been killing people in Butte. There
was delay owing 10 failure to secure
tools, and the mob again assembled at
o'clock. They were assured that work
would begin aud dispersed. One hun
dred and thirty-slX men are at work to-
night covering the heaps with dirt, and
work will be continued day and night
until 1t is finished.
1t is estimated that $1,000 tons of ore
is burning. The state of feeling may
be imagined from the fact that eight
deaths occurred in the city today, and
there were five funerals. During the
first nine days of this month. when
there was no heap resting, ana no
smoke, there were eleven deaths, while
during the past six days. with the heaps
burning, there have been twenty-one
deaths.

IN WARLIKE HUMOR.
Naval Eien Favor Prompt Action
Against Chilli.

Against Cn1lE.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The navy de-
partment is in warlike mood. 1t was
stated about the department yesterday
that the Chlians are delaying their
answer to our demand for information
concerning the Valparaiso incident for
the purpose of gaining time so that their
new war vessel, the Captain Pratt,
which will be the most formidable OF
their fleet, is completed. The situation
thus outlined was discussed with eager
ness, and tie opinion was freely adj
vanced that President Harrison would
in all likelihood take measures to check
mate Chilli in this matter by sending g
special message to congress withiH
the next two weeks reciting the
fact that explanation and rep
aratlon had been demanded of
Chilli without avail, and prOclaiming
the necessity of informing Chilli that
this country will resort to extreme
measures if the desired response is fur
Their delayed beyond a reasonable and
specified time.
The wisdom of this course. it is ar
gued, would be apparent. The Captain
Pratt is now building in France, and
cannot be finished in less than two
months or more. In the meantime, if
Harrison and congress should cause
declaration of war by the United States
against Chill, it would prevent France
from delivering the vessel to Chill, and
would save New York and our Othef
Atlantic cities from danger OF bombard-
ment DV that vessel

THE LOUISIANA FIGHT.
Two Conventions, Each Claiming
to Be Right.

BATON ROUGE. La, Dec. 16.-Two
Democratic conventions assembled at
noon today, each claiming to represent
the Democracy of the state. Nothing
beyond the usual routine business of Or
ganiZatiOn was done by either body
except the appointment of committee
Oy the McEnery people to confer with
the opposition, and ascertain what, if
any, grounds of compromise could by
reached.
In the meantime, the anti-McEnery
faction had a large trouble of its own to
settle. There was a desire on the part
of the anti-lOttery men TO abrOgate the
Lafayette agreement and bring about
the nomination of a new ticket,On which
the farmers were to have part, but not
the leadership. Several conferences
were held with the farmers, but the
latter refused to move all inch, insisting
upon the terms of the agreement and L.
S. Adams for governor. The cOnven-
ton will, therefore, doubtless carry out
the agreement, as a refusal would result
in another division and a straight-out
farmers ticket.

ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ. Dee. 16.-The
strike of the telegrapherS on the At
lantic & Pacific at this point resulted
today in victory for the strikers. The
point the latter insisted OH was that
their organization should not be at

of wages. When the telegraphers

strike will DE a great benefit to the
strikers Oh the Southern Pacific. On
that road but four men refused TO go
out between FL PaSo and New Orleans.

and at 1 :05 trains began to move on the

three Democratic vacancies in the for

none on commerce, none on judiciary;
none on appropriations, none on priEi-

that Gov. Hill will be given position
on the foreign relations committee. This
would be too much of a concession for
the senatorial love of precedents to en-

the vacancies in the foreign relations
committee. and that Mr.. Hill Will be

RAN ON A BROKEN RAIL.
Three or Four Persons Injured on
the Great No .thern.

Unc OrOaC NOEIuCfns
PARK RIVER. Dec. IA serious ac-
cident occurred this morning at 1850
on the Langdon branch of the Great
Northern. The mixed train from Lang
don for Larimore ran onto a broken
rail at point four miles north of Park
River. The speed of the train when
the obstruction was met did not exceed
twenty miles an hour. The rail did not
give way until the engine had passed
over it. The first car, a passenger
coach, tore up the ties, and the rest of
the train, made up of heavily loaded
freight cars, forced the engine and coach
ahead until the latter rolled off the road
bed over a small wooden bridge, fol-
lowed by three of the freight cars. The
stove in the overturned coach set fire to
the woodwork, and the injured passen-
gers confined therein were only saved
from being burned to death by the
prompt action of the engineer, Bennett,
and Conductor Maxwell, who, with the
rest of the train crew, eXtinguished the
fire and rescued the injured men. No
one was killed outright, and it is be-
leved that none of the injuries will
prove fatal. William Flanagan, of
LangdOn, was badly bruised and cut
by flying glass. He was sitting close to
the stove when the car left the track,
and was covered with shower of hot
ashes. b. Stevenson. of Gardner, who
was sitting with Flanagan, is also
badly burned. Christian OlesOn, Of
Gardner, is severely cut and burned.
His injuries are the most serious. News
of the accident was at once telegraphed
to Grand Forks from Park River and a
wrecking train was dispatched from
that place, carrying half dozen sur
geons. So far as can now be learned
those alone named are the only ones in
jured. Engineer Bennett was badly
shaken up, but not seriously hurt. Con-
ductor Maxwell reports that the train
was running at the usual rate of speed,
and that the accident could not by any
foresight on the part Of the train crew
have been prevented.
