DAVITT LOSES HIS SEAT.
Priests Used Their T. huence, and the
Courts Decide Against Him.

Priests Used Their i. fuence, and the
Courts Decide Against Him.
DUBLIN, Dec. 23.-Justice O'Brien de-
livered the decision of the court to-day
on the election petition against the re-
turn of Michael Davitt as d member of
Parliament for North Meath. The de-
cision deprives Mr. Davitt of the seat on
the same grounds that resulted IN the
unseating of Mr.. Fullam as member of
Parliament for South Meath.
Mr.. Davitt's counsel admitted that
the evidence, 30 far as Bishop Nulty's
pastoral denouncing the Parnellites was
concerned, applied to North Meath
equally with South Meath. The decis-
ion, therefore, was foregone conclu-
sion, and Mr.. Dayitt had endeavored to
forestall it by offering to give up his
seat in order to present himself again
as q candidate. This could not be per-
mitted, the court holding that it could
act only upon evidence actually before
1t, and not upon admissions in advance
OF testimony.
Mr.. Davitt was elected in the general
election by 2,549 votes to 2,146 for his
Parnallite opponent, Mahoney, who
had been elected in 1856 without oppo-
sition. The scenes which attended the
contest in North Meath were even more
exciting than in South Meath, ow-
ing to the bitterness aroused by
Mr.. Dav1tt's well-known antagonism
to the late Mr.. Parnell. Besides
the use OF all the influence the priests
could bring to bear in behalf of Davitt
and against the Parnellite candidate,
there were many severe physical en-
counters between the electors on both
sides, and women as we'll as men took
an active share in the struggle.
The result of the case is q painful
blow to Mr.. Davitt, who is acutely sens
ible to any reflection on his personal
honor, and who had with reluctance
consented to be a candidate for Parlia-
mani

COACHES DOWN A HILL.

Disastrous Accident the Santa Fe
Road at busted, Col.
COLORADO SPRINGS, COL, Dec. 23-
Santa Fe passenger train No. s, which
left Denver st HOS o'clock last night,
was wrecked between l and 2
O'Clock this morning two miles north
Of Hustled, 8 small station fifteen
miles north of this city. The
train was due here at 2:10 A. NJ. Sew
9ral cars left the track and plunged
down an embankment of fifty feet, pill
ing up the cars in O confused heap.
Fire broke out almost Immediately, aad
added its horror to the scene. The
train was running at the rate of forty
miles an hour when the disaster oc-
smashed into fragments.
1t WAS marvellous, considering the
character of the wreck, that the conse-
quences to passengers were not more
serious. Two boys, are dying at the
hospital in this city. They are believed
to be the only ones fatally injured,
though almost every body on the train
was more or less severely hurt.
The first that anyone on board the
train knew of the trouble was when the
ears began humping along the ties.
Only the baggage car, which was next to
the engine, remained on the track.
The express car turned over on its side
and rolled down the embanknent,
standing on its head at the
foot of the slope, completely up
side down. The smoking car followed
j @o1,- L.
spread to the next car, which was the
day coach. The front end Of the day
coach was upon the top OF the emhan K
ment, and the other end at the bottom.
This car caughl fire from the other, and
both were completely destroyed. The
Pullman turned on It's side on the en-
bankment.
The accident is ascribed bv some to
spreading rails, while by others 1t is
charged to faulty wheels. The charac-
ter of the accident, however, points to
the spreading Of the rails. The Santa
Fe Company Immediately sent out a re-
lief train with physicians and wreck
ing crew on board. Engineer Weir
of Denver, was in charge Of the train.
lie and Fireman Lillas, OF La Junta,
were both uninjured. When the train
was stopped it was right on the end CT
the bridge No. POI, which crossed a
gully fully fifty feet deey. The tender
of the engine left the track, but the en-
CINE itself remained. Congress
eject laie Pence and vile were on the
train, but were uninlured.
1he scene of the accident is on the
south side of the "divide," ten miles
south Of the summit. The Santa Fe
track makes an ascent of 300 feet be-
tween Denver and Palmer Lake, sixty
five miles, and a descent of 1000 feet
between Palmer Lake and Pueblo, six
ty-seyen miles. The train was descend
ing the hill from Palmer Lake TO
Hustled, where there is fall of 500 feet
IN ten miles.

Not Weary IN Well Dong

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. 21.-A. H. Andre WIS
& Co., dealers in school and office sup
plies. to-day filed a bill against Edwin
d. Weary, a former salesman of the
firm, claiming that the de endant had
defrauded them out of 500, coo.
1t is alleged against Weary that
he accepted brides to allow
the company's bids to be re-
iected, and that he received large per-
centages and commissions from houses
in the same line of business rs his en-
ployers. Some of the instances whore
Weary is alleged to have done this work
are with the letting of contract for
$l04 600 by the commissioners of Ale
gheny County, Pa, and with the letting
of q contract by the city of Memphis,
Tenn, in 1891. Weary denies all the
allegations of the bill.

CHOLERA IN POLAND,
The Plague Reappears on the Border of
Austria,


Austria,
VIENNA, Dec. 23.-The cholera is IN
creasing in the province of Lublin, in
Russian Poland, and adjoining the
Austrian border. The CONSERVATION
caused by the ravages of the cholera
aliayed, but is again being aroused,
and many OF the people are
fleeing from the cholera-stricken
districts. The fugitives are stopped
at the Austrian frontier, If seen by the
sentlnels, but there is no doubt that
many OF them escape into Gallcia and
Austria proper. Tie authorities on
both sides of the border are doing ell
they can to prevent a panic, with the
scenes of inhumanity which accom-
panied the panic in the autumn. The
report that emigration to America IS
virtually stopped has causd much dis
appointment, as, owing TO dread OF
cholera and for other reasons, multi
tudes were preparing to .emigrate dur
ing the coming spring.
HAMBURG, Dec. 23.-It was hoped that
the cases Of cholera that have occurred
here within the past few days were
sporadic, but the indications point to
the fact that the disease which ragged
with such fearful effect last summer has
only been quieRcent, not killed,
and that the city is in danger
of another epidemic. To-day two new
cases OF undoubted Asatic cholera have
been reported, and two Of the patients,
who had previously been removed TO
the hospital, died. A general feeling of
uneasiness exists, and with the ap-
DrOach of warm weather an exodus of
the Weather classes is looked for.

MELLOR ENDS HIS LIFE.

Amigo Lumberman Puts Bullet
ron His Brain.
AMIGO, Wis.,, Dec. Pc. n. Mellor,
ofthe late firm of Hoxie * Mellor, the
lumbermen who failed two years ago
for half 8 million and caused
a great sensation in business circles
in this state, committed suicide at the
Vivian Hotel, in this city, at 7 o'clock
this morning. He had partly dressed,
then taking 32-calliber revolver, seat
ed himself on the edge of the bed,
placed the muzzle in his mouth against
the roof near the soft palate, and sent
bullet through his brain.
The report from the revolver caused
an investigation to be made by Mr..
Spencer, proprietor of the hotel.
He looked through the transom of
the door, and saw Mr.. Mellor ly-
ing across the bed. apparently in
and the revolver found tightly
clasped in his hand. He was uncon-
scious, but not dead. He died two
hours later. A jury was impaneled
and an inquest held. The jury re-
turned verdict in accordance with the
facts as given here.
There are several theories gwen, by
as many different persons, as to the
cause of Mr.. Mellor's act. One is that
he was afraid to meet Mr.. McLaren, the
assignee, in this suit against him
for obtaining money under false
pretenses, which WAS to be tried at Osh-
kosh to-day. Another is that he had
lost the confidence of everybody
hn foII hn{ h,,ci
reverses were threatening him. Still
another is that he has been having
family troubles; that one of his daugh-
ters had left college at Beaver Dam
und er alleged unpleasant circumstances.
These are all suggestions, but it is evil
dent that some news reached him last
night that caused great change in his
conduct.
He arrived here last night from Osh-
kosh and was in good spirits, more SO
than usual; but while eating his
supper his book-keeper took in
package of letters which he
perused. After reading one Of them
the expression of his face changed and
he gave deep groan, which was 80 un-
usual that others in the dining
room noticed it. His cheerfulness
left and he appeared like @ different
ter are unknown to outsiders, it is sup
posed that it conveyed to him the news
of his daughters trouble at college,
which, with his financial troubles, up
set his mind.
He was an exceptionally energetic
business man, and had the reputation

DARING TRAIN ROBBERY.
Brigands Secure 10000 RoubIes on a
Russian Railway,


WARSAW, Dec. ga most daring and
successful train robbery occurred last
evening on the railway between this
city and Kowal, town eighty miles
northwest OF Warsaw. A body
Of brigands succeeded by the
use Of signals In stopping a
Well-filled passenger train at a point
about midway between Warsaw and
kowRl. When the train was at stand
still it was boarded by number of the
gang, all Of whom were heavily armed
Other members of the band guarded
the doors of the coaches to prevent the
escape Of any of the passengers. Be-
glnlng at the forward end of the train,
the brlgands went through each coach
with revolVers in their hands and or
dered the passengers, men and women,
to surrender their valuables. They
even forced the married women
to give up their wedding rings.
Not the slightest attempt at resistance
was made, and it is estimated that the
plumber secured by the robbers
amounted In value to 10000 roubles.
Among the booty was large sum of
ready money. AS the brigands were
leaving the train they relieved the train
hands OF their watches, and then babe
them adieu, springing to the ground
and disappearing in the darkness. The
train proceeded, and when the next
station was reached the authorities
were notified of the robbery.
