They Are Run Down BY Train and Eight
Killed and the Rest Injured.

They Are Run Down BY Train and Eight
Killed and the Rest Injured.
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 20.-A little before 8
o'clock last evening party Of twenty
two started out for an evening OF en-
joyment of the sleighing furnished by
the recent heavy fall of snow. OF these
eight are now in the morgue and near
" all the rest are in the hospital The
party was made mp of members Of the
Clover Leaf Fishing club, social or
ganization of white walters IN some OF
the leading local restaurants. They
were all in one conveyance, q
large four-horse sleigh. Starting out
after an evenings drive they went to
the Delmonico, road house near For
est park. After partaking of lunch
the party reassemb led at 1880 for the
return home. The drive was COM
menced with gaiety, but fifteen min
utes later ut the Sarah street crossing
of the Wabash railroad it met q special
train chartered by local Legion OF
Honor lodge returning from an evening
spent at Ferguson, thirteen miles out,
in charge of Engineer james A. Blanch-
fed, Fireman Murphy and Conductor
Robert Dalton.
The train was moving twenty-five
miles an hour, tender first. Owing to
this last fact the engineer did not see
the sleighing party until fairly upon
them.
The tender struck between the pole
horses and the sleigh, killing two OF
the horses and throwing the occupants
of the sleigh in every direction. SO
great was the shock that two OF the
injured were afterward found on top
of the cab
The dead number eight But five OF
their names are known, viz: Fred
Neubert, Gus Neubert, Will Krone, j.
Schaefix, r. Won Behrcn.
The remaining three are awaiting
Identification. Andrew Stephenson,
colored, driver of the team, Is missing.
1t is impossible to get the names OF
all the wounded. Three of them, how
ever, are H. Wagner, Charles Fay
and Dan Brassart. It is believed that
at least four of the wounded will die.

MAY BE SETTLED.

The Chiilan Question Assuming . More
Conclllatory Aspect - The President
withholds His War Mesaage-England
Offers Her Service as . Mediator.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-It was stated
officially last night that the presidents
message on the subjec: Of the trouble
with Chilli would not be sent to congress
to-day. While Official information ON
this point does not extend beyond to-
day there are strong surface indications
that the president has practically de-
termined to postpone final action on
this matter until next week, and
this gives color to the belief
that conciliatory dispatches have
already been received and that
more are expected. It is known that
the president would strongly indorse
any proposition for settlement of the
questions Mt issue ON a peaceful basis
consistent with the honor and dignity
of the nation.
The cabinet meeting yesterday was
devoted almost entirely to the consid-
Grafton of the CHILEAN question, but
was interrupted by the illness Of Secre-
tary Blaine. When it was concluded
1t was stated that no conclusion had
been reached.
1t was reported at the capitol that
the government of Great Britain has
taken steps to bring about q more
friendly feeling between the United
States and Chilli and would intervene
to effect settlement of the trouble.
The Post says to-day: 1T was learned
on good authority that the state de-
partment received information from
the Gillian government that that coun-
try was ready and willing to make rep
aration for all losses to life, limb and
honor suffered by Americans, but the
dispatch or letter was couched in
such terms as to be unsatisfac-
tory. At dinner given by Bourke
Cochran TO Senator Hill, at which
about q dozen leading democratic
congressman were present, nearly all
the conversation turned upon the pros
pect Of war and at times it developed
into stirring debates. The southern
members declared themselves for war
and said that should it take place the
south would uphold the presidents
hand to the full extent and from no
other section would the government
receive such support as from that south
of Mason and Dixon's line."

chairman of the committee on foreign
affairs, received note about midnight

rotary Blaine has just requested
me to come to the state department

few hours he has heard something
which gives a more serious coloring to
the situation than many of us suppose.
It has reached that condition when the
slightest mistake or faltering on our
part may provoke war. know the
situation must be serious, otherwise
Mr.. Blaine would not have sent for
me-"

GETTING READY.

The Navy Department. Actively Preparing
For the Worst Should Chill Wish to
light
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The navy
department is still the scene of great
activity. But in the Office of chief of
the bureau of navigation, Com. Ram
say, the hustle is the greatest Three
Of his assistants have been detailed
to translate cipher dispatches and they
are kept busy putting messages into
shape for transmission and making in
telligible the cablegrams that come in
from the south
The navy code is one of the most in
tricate ever devised 1t is mineral in
character and has never yet been de-
tected. Its inconvenience, therefore,
Is tolerated because of its safety, and
at present its use is the main work OF
the navigation bureau. A grist OF hall
dozen cablegrams will constitute near
" a DAYS work, and so all the avail
able force of the bureau is put upon
the task. Meanwhile Commodore Ram
say devotes considerable time in COM
munication with the chief of the hydro
graphic office, Commander Glover, who
has in his Office accurate charts OF both
continents. by this means every mile
of the South American shore can be
watched.
The greatest pressure, however, Is
being brought to bear on the ordnance
bureau, which presents its fighting
arm of the navy. The chief OF thai
bureau is giving most satisfactory re
suits from the gun-making plant a
Washington, besides stimulating the
steel manufacturers TO their best ef
forts in rapid production Of material.
But above all the greatest activity
has prevailed for so long in the bureau
of naval intelligence that the agents o.
which are said to have been at worl
on q plan of possible campaign, besides
collecting all imaginable information
from abroad. 1t is through this bureau
that the secretary has kept himsel
thoroughly informed on the movement
OF the agents of Chill, who, 1t is ru
mored, have for some time been ran
sackinR Europe for war material.

Tho Phoenix Powder mill Annihiiatod by
An Explosion and Every Person I'm II
HlOwn to Atoms.
CINCINNATI Jan. 19.-Specials from
the cities near Ceredo, w. Va, bring
the news of terrific explosion OF the
Phoenix powder mills destructive OF
life. The Phoenix mill Is situated ut
Central City, near Ceredo, and about
half way between Huntington, W. Va,
and Catlettsburgh, Ky. This is the
third explosion at this mill within three
months and is by all odds the most de-
structive one. The last one before this
happened six weeks ago and was
trifing affair.
How the awful wreck of yesterday
was brought about will never be known
because not q soul that was in the mill
is left alive to tell the story. At $3.50
o'clock yesterday morning people in
Ironton, twenty-five miles away, heard
the terrible decorating roar.
In Ceredo, three miles away, windows
were broken and wares in the stores
shaken from the shelves. In Catletts-
burgh, nearly ten miles away. the earth
shook and people were alarmed. Every
body OWNED the cause and soon there
was aorush from all directions to the
scene. The local authorities organized
and surrounded the ruins with Gordon
of police through which none of the
thousands of spectators was permitted
to pass.
1t has been ascertained that the first
explosion was in the glazing mill,
where there were ten tons of powder.
Then successfully the packing house.
the magazine, the canning mill and the
four wheel mills, and lastly car loaded
with gunpowder went hurting in fiery
fragments through the air Not YES
tige of the entire plant remains and
the country for half a mile around Is
strewn with fragments Of the buildings
and of the bodies of five men, victims
of the disaster. It is not known def
nitely, but at the present writing it is
believed that no less than thirty-five
tons OF powder were burned in the sew.
eral explosions.
THE KILLED.
Archie Livingstone, a Scotchman,
who has been superintendent Of the
mills since they first started, was blown
to atoms. Only his hand was found
and recognized.
Ed Winton, the architect and en-
rineer who built the works, was in the
magazine when it exploded and. strange
to say, his body was very little mu-
tilated.
John Bentor, workman, body hor-
ribly mangled.
John Schlosser and Charles Scott,
workmen, were both terribly mutilated.
All there is known or supposed to have
been in the buildings when the ex-
plosion occurred.
THE INJURED.
Robert Cook, a glazing mill hand.
He was approaching the glazing mill
when it blew up. His clothing and his
hair and whiskers were burned off.
He ran 200 yards to a stream and
jumped in. He will not live till mid
NIGHT. Reece Estep and John Justice

Tho Search For the Victims OF the Tihls
Accident Continues.


ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 20.-The
search for the remains of the unfortu-
nate persons who met their death in
the terrible catastrophe which occurred
ut Tiflis on the occasion of the cere-
mony of the blessing of the waters Of the
river Kurs, has been unremitingly con-
tinued since the accident happened
The water has been carefully searched
in the vicinity of the spot where the
struggling mass of humanity tumbled
into the river when the temporary
bridge over which the procession was
passing gave way beneath the weight
of the great crowd and went crashing
with its living burden into the stream.
The remains of seventy-three persons
have been taken from the water, but
the bodies of many unfortunates are
still lying in the bottom Of the river.
