AN AWFUL WRECK.

four People Burned to Death In
Freight Trains Caboose-Very SAD
scenes.
OTTAWA. IA, November 10.-A fearful
catastrophe occurred on the Chicago, MIL
waukee Il St. Paul road last night at High
land Center small station north OF tnls
city. A fast freight train dashed into the
caboose of a local freight train standing on
the track telescoping the caooose and Tour
cars.
The caboose caught fire and the scene
was heartrending. Four people were
burned ahve and number OF others nao
narrow escapes. The caboose was split IN
two by a car of grain wedging in four PEG,
pie on the right side. The most pltitcl
case was Miss Lizzie Butler Of this city
who get her head out of window and plead
with those about TO save her but her oody
was caught by freight car, and 1t was
impossible TO extricate her. Mrs. Jones OF
this city tried to escape through WINDOW
but she was a large woman and could not
succeed. The other victims were unknown
and an unknown man.
The latter is thought to be butcher from
Oskalooss. The injured are Miss Clyde
Millisack and Mrs. Pickett, Of this city,
and Miss Lizzie Corey, Of Sigourney.
They are badly burned, but not fatally. A
curious incident was that one or the pas
sengers was disguised and in the crash the
disguise came off, revealing noted crook.
He quickly disappeared in the excitement

The Duke of Marlborough Dead.

LONDON. November 10.-Further partic.
ulars regarding the finding of the body OF
the Duke of Marlborough show that the
valet entered the room carrying cup OF
chocolate When the knowledge came to
him that the Duke was dead, he hesl!ated
to break the news to the Duchess himself
He summoned maid and sent her to the
Duchess's room with instructions to tell
her that he could not arouse the DUKE
The Duchess hurried TO the bedside TO md
her husband dead. She was terribly
shocked and broke down completely. IL
was evident when the body was found life
had been extinct several hours and that
death was painless. Rigor morris was then
We'll developed.
When the Duchess, formerly Mrs. Ham
mersley, of New York, returned to Eng
land after her marriage, she found Blen-
helm Palace in most dilapidated
condition. Even the locks on tie
doors and windows had to be replaced. All
the expenses Of repairing the place were
met by the Duchess, who spent enormous
sums in this way All this is losttO her, as
the palace becomes the property of the
Dukes son, who has hitherto been known
as the Marquis Of Blandford.

The omestea d Situation.

HOMESTEAD. PA, November 10.-The
situation at the steel works shows no
change in favor of the locked out men, in
fact Just the reverse is true. The Huns
have been sizing up the situation and they
don't seem to think that the men will win.
They are returning 20 work by twos and
threes Yesterday two Hunssreturned 10
work and il is reported that thsee more
deserted the strikers ranks this morning
No general break is expected among the
strikers. out it is thought that the men
will gradually return back TO their old
positions in the mill. One Homestead
citizen lacks faith in the return of the
country TO Democracy and he offers his
real estate for sale at a reduction Of 80
per cent. from the prices asked before the
election.

English Press Opinions.

LONDON, November l0.-The LGilU NelrS
SAYS: "Cieveland's great message Of 1887
NAV have cost him the election Of 1883, out
it prepared the way for the present trl-
umph The plain meaning Of the election
is that the rabies of excessive protection IS
TO be stamped out"
The Chronicle says it is evident that from
a strategic point of view the republican
convention made great mistake IN nom
mating Harrison instead Of Blaine. we
confess that we do not think much Of the
Democratic victory in New York. Cleve-
land will have 10 pay his debt to Tammany
Hall by considering the Hill interest in the
formation Of the government. we are IN
clined TO attribute no little share IN bring
ing about the revolt Of the election to the
disgracsful Homestead tragedy,
The Times after commenting on the fact
that the Republican party since General
Grants second term has only retained its
hold on the country bv mechanical auyant-
ages that would have been swept away al
most at any time by plebiscite says:
THE catastrophe is the more complete be-
cause it was wholly unexpected II, as the
RepubiCauS boosted, the mass Of the pco-
pie favored the Mckinley law, tue Demo
Gratis could not have swept all before them
How far the Democrats are able or wiling
TO so in the direction OF tariH reform Is an
other matter. Without control OF the SEN
ate, it will be impossible to repeal the Nc
Kiuley law The probabilities favor a
combination regarding tariff reform posi-
bic. but the Democrats are likely to move
with extreme caution
The telegraph says it does not anticipate
any material relaxation on the tariff laws
as result of the assumption Of power by
the Democrats, but thinks that it will act
as check upon the establishment Of tin
plate and other new manufacturing indus
tries in America, and will thereby profit by
the benefit of foreign trade.
The Graphic says: mo pleasanter news
than that from the United States has been
received here in a long time. The result Of
the election is the most disastrous blow
given the cause Of protection in the memo
~ OF the present generation.

rHE CONGRESSIONAL TICKET.

THE CONGRESSIONAL TICKET.
The Democrats have elected the
whole Congressional delegation.
That is certain.
In the First district JOHN O. PENDLE-
TON Is elected by about 300 plurality.
Had the conditions in Wetzel, Braxton
and elsewhere been normal Mr.. PEN
DLEroY's plurality would have been
close to 1000. In Braxton out OF 4
of the votes cast for the Peoples party
were Democrats and in Wetzel where
WEAVER had a vote OF 500 out of Of
these votes were Democratic. This was
the scheme the Republicans worked to
defeat Mr.. PENDLEToN but it didn't
work.
In the Second district WILLIAM L.
WILSON'S plurality is over 1000. Had
he devoted all his time to his own dis
trict and not generously given much of
it to other sections, it would have
been much larger.
In the Third district J. G. ALDER
SONS plurality is about 1000. 1t was
in his district that most of the illegal
negro voters were imported, but his
gains elsewhere were sufficient to over
come these fraudulent votes and leave
him a handsome majority.
In the Fourth District JAMES CAPE
HART is reelected by about 1900. He
had a hard fight and one of the shrewd-
est politicians in the State to contend
against, but the people knew his record
and they stood by him noblY.
LISA splendid victory over great odds
all around.
