WRECK AND EXPLOSION.
Three Trainmen Mangled in the
Collision.

UTICA. N. Y. Jan. Ga head-cnd
collision occurred between freight
and accommodation train and light
engine on the New York, On
tario & Western railroad half a
mile north of Smyrna, Chenango
county, at an early hour this morning.
The accident resulted in the killing of
three men: Engineer Ferd A. Young.
of Utica; Engineer Martin Sheedy. of
Oswego; Fireman Albert Cady, of Nor
witch. The front ends of the locomo-
tives were raised from the track at
considerable angle by the force of the
blow, and stood in that position a mo-
ment, when an explosion took place that
shook the ground like an earthquake.
The fireman and brakeman who had
jumped were struck by flying debris
from the engines and hurled against
the fence. The explosion shook the
windows of houses some distance, and
people were awakened by the report.
The engines were twisted and broken
into scrap heaps, and some of their
heavy parts thrown hundreds of feet.
In & few minutes the trainmen began the
search for those of their crews who were
missing. Engineer Young was discOv-
cred standing on his feet among the
broke parts Of his engine, tightly pin
Toned against the heavy bars. He was
alive, but could not speak. Fireman
CadY was found crushed and lifeless in
the wreck. Engineer SheedY,of the light
engine, could not be found, as he was
covered with the wrecked engines.

COLUMBUS, o., Jan. 6.-The caucus
convened at p. m. in the hall of the
house of representatives., and by accla-
nation Speaker Laylin. of the house,
was selected chairman. He made
felicitOus speech Astounding in compli-

every Republican assembly present ex-
ceDt Representative jackson.
Quite an interesting conflict took
place over the question of admitting the
public, but motion was finally adopted
directing the sergeant-at-arms to clear
the galleries. The vast audience of
spectators Kissed this action roundly.
and it was only after a great deal of
trouble that the sergeant-at-arms per-
formed his onerous task. The first di-
vision of sentiment took place on res

forces moved substitute providing for

to vote their honest convictions, and no

Representative Taylor warned the
caucus that it was by secret ballot that
the Democrats few years ago nomi-
Bated Coal Oil Payne" for the United

their party and doomed themselves to

Representative McGrew's argument
was little short of sensational. Are we

Upon motion of Mr.. Perkins BiOrge's

came on the sanguinary battle of the
day, if not of the convention. 1t was
the election of state lecturer to sue

fused to continue the labors with DOC"
Fish at her heels. And "Doc'' Fish was
the hot aspirant. He had labored indie
fatigably to become Eva's successor.
His name was presented in a burst of

W. WeStphal, of Graceville, and the
lecturer for Traverse county, in ex-

He charged that "Doc'' Fish while
