Col Graneros is a small station mid.
way between Pueblo and Trinidad and
was 200 miles south of Denver.
This road has been blockaded by
snow for the past two days and when
the blockade was raised two double

the north and the other from the south
The station agent failed to deliver the
dispatcher's orders to the northbound
train and the consequence was that the
two trains came together from opposite
directions with terrible crash.
Fireman FL. Grubb of Denver, was
instantly killed. Mail Clerks Wolcott

were badly injured. The trains were
heavily laden with passengers, but as
far as can be learned they escaped any
serious injuries
The four engines are in the ditch

demolished. The station agent disap.

Fatal Wreck of Freight Trains on the Ham

WHEELING, Mo-, Dec. 30-At 1:4O
o'clock yesterday morning a freight
train on the Hannibal & st. Joseph
road left Brookfield and at Laclede
was given orders to meet the first of au-
other freight at Meadville and the third
at Chillicothe. Conductor Bozarth,
however, read the orders to meet
the second instead of the third sec
ton at Chillicothe and after pass
ing the first pulled out and was going
down the long grade just west of this
place at probable speed Of thirty-6ve
miles an hour when the second section
of the east-bound tain appeared around
. curve only hundred yards away.
Nothing could be done and a moment
later the engines came together and
everything was piled up in a heap.
The two engines rolled down the EN-.
bankment together and are now only
fit for the scrap pile. The box cars
piled up in heap together with sever
al cars of S .ock en- route to Chicago, the
property of Mr.. Williams. of kearney.
During this time fire had broken out
and was soon raging furiously. For
three hours it had its way, and when it
was finally checked the pile of cars
and their contents of coal and 100 head
of cattle were consumed. The railway
officials at once took all the cattle off
the hands of Mr.. Williams, and at his
own price.

LONDON. Jan 2-The Santiago de
Chilli correspondent of the Times afhrms
on what he declares to be the highest
authority that Chill would not feel hui
inflated in helping in the utmost of her
power to terminate peacefully and in
manner honorable to both herself and
the United States the conflict which but
for the lengthy and secret form OF
criminal procedure followed in Chilli,
which has allowed of constant false re-
ports hostile to a good understanding
to be propagated abroad, would never
have attained such exaggerated pro-
portions The correspondent says it Is
evident that there are frebrands who
are anxious for the inaugur alton OF a
war which would be disastrous to the
best interests of both countries con-
cerned.
CHILI'S OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Senor Montt,
the Gillian minister, in an interview
with Secretary Blaine laid before him
the following translation of a telegram
from Mr.. Malta, the minister of foreign
affairs, bearing on the inquiry into the
trouble in the city of Valparaiso be-
tween the Chilians and the sailors from
the United States steamship Baltimore:
Minister of Cali. Washington:

presumed at present Whoever they may
be they will be punished. The legal pro

to their proper termination.
The minister. when asked for ar
opinion respecting the state made
in the telegram. called special atten
ton to the statement that all the North
Americans excepting two had said that
the police did their duty. He regarded
this as favorable to the Gillian side OF
the controversy.
It is noted that the Gillian minister
of foreign affairs promises that wher
the due process of law. according te
Gillian Jurisprudence, be observed.
those found guilty will be punished
and says that these judicial proceed
ings are being carried forward actively
This, in connection with the state
ment that the police did their duty
is significant as showing that the
Gillian government does not wish
that the action of individuals belonging
in Chilli shall be COMPOUNDED with the
actions of those connected with the

United states Troops Taking Active Meas.
ures to Suppress Garza's Band of Mexican
Revolutionists.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec. 30-Gen.
Stanley, in command of this depart
ment, has received instructions to use
all the troops of his command if neces-
sary to suppress the adherents of CARA
who are collecting in Starr and Duval
counties on the border. Two troops of
cavalry have already left here and two
more will go Saturday, being delayed
until then by the lack of transportation
facilities
Garza's proposed invasion and restor-
alton of the constitution of 1857 now
excites less ridicule than it did in Sep
TENDER when first promulgated. He
has shown himself capable leader as
while avoiding pursuit on both sides of
the river he has increased the mum Der
of hic forces to such an extent as to ex-
cite alarm on both sides of the river.
Capt J. G. Bourke is authority for
the statement that every Mexican on
the American side is supporter of
Cara, and the masses of northern Mex
leo are similarly inclined.
A private telegram from Monterey
says it is believed that Cara has a very
strong secret following in that city
which has made every preparation to
Join their leader at moments notice.
Arms have been sold there recently in
large quantities and it is believed they
were purchased by Garza's agents.
The fact that Cara continues to re-
cruit followers from the American side
increases the responsibility of the
American government in preserving
the neutrality laws and American off
Gals are much excited. There are but
three posts on the border, Fort McIn-
tosh, near Laredo; Fort Ringgoli, 100
miles sonth. and Fort Brown, near
Brownsville. These are but slightly
garrisoned. While the federal troops
have been reinforced by ex-rangers,
the frontier is of such bushy charac-
ter that it is still very inadequately pro-

The Italian Indemnity.

ROME, Jan. 1-Notwithstandin the
denial made by American officials, it is
again asserted, and apparently with
authority, that the italian and Ameri-
can governments have agreed that an
indemnity shall be given in the case of
any victims of the New Orleans lynch
ing proven to be italian subjects
These repeated assertions of concession
of the present American government
are attributed. in some quarters, to the
desire of the Rudini administration to
make an excuse to the Italian people

New YORK, Jan. 2-R- G.. Dun &
Co. 8 Weekly Review of Trade says:
The old year has closed with a little
more than the usual holiday dullness
in general trade but reports as to the
volume Of holiday trade are mainly
satisfactory. At Chicago it was the
heaviest ever known, at St. Louis un.
usually large and in jewelry the big.

New Orleans not quite up to expecta,
tions and at Little Rock unsatisfactory.
Quiet in other trade at this season is
not bad sign and In nearly all reports
it is added that the prospects for the
coming year are considered unusually
bright
The record of receiverships during
the year includes 26 railroads with
2, 159 miles in operation and S. 479, 0O0
in stocks and bonds. The annual state
ment of failures in 1891 just completed
shows an increase over last year of
1865 in mum Der. the total in the United

1890. but substantially no increase ap-
pears in the amount of liabilities, S1S9,
SIS, 63S against $3.50. $50, 1874 last year. so
that the average of liabilities for each
failure is reduced from ST.. 400 to SIS. All

tiles have decreased largely, but at the
south have increased from S27, GOO, 600
to S45. DOC. 600 in amount and the pro-
portion to the number of firms in bust
ness is to 50 in the the south. against
100 in the middle states and l20 at the

seven days lumber 329, as compared
with totals of 292 last week. For the
