TWO MEN KILLED.
Disastrous Wreck on the South
eastern Road.
A Freight Train Crashes Into the Rear
Of the Hopkinsville Accommoda-
tion at Moore's Station.

A disastrous wreck occurred al
Moore's Station, four miles north 0I
Guthrie, on the Southeastern road,
last night about O'Clock and it is
wonderful that the loss of life was
not greater.
The Hopkinsville accommodation
pulled out from Guthrie at O'Clock
sharp, bound for HepkinsvilIe. A
freight train had orders to follow the
accommodation in five minutes and
when its time came it started.
Moore's is a little cross.road flag
station and trains rarely ever stop
there-never unless they are tagged.
From the inform alton gathered, it
seems. that the force of both trains
last night were laboring under the
belief that there would be no stop
made at Moore's by the accommoda-
ton. This, however, was not the
case, as the accommodation was
tagged to take on passenger. 1t
came to stop and in less time than
it takes to tell it the freight train
crashed into the passenger, the en-
gine running nearly through the
rear coach, completely demolishing
it and badly shaking up the cars in
front.
The engineer of the freight train
had a leg broken. The fireman of
the same train was instantly killed,
A negro tramp who was stealing a
ride or the rear platform was killed
The engine and several freight cars
were wrecked and the description
given of the passenger coach by
parties who saw it, is to the effect
that dynamite would not have more
completely torn it into pieces.
Fortunately there were only two
or three passengers in this coach
Those who were on the train had
taken supper at Guthrie and were
enjoying cigars in the smoker when
the wreck occurred.
Robert Rutherford, however, who
Is we'll known here, was in the de-
molished coach and sustained severe
bruises, but is not seriously hurt.
Holmes Orgain, OF this city, was
on the train; was badly shaken up,
but wires relatives that he is all
right this morning.
So great was the damage to cars
that wrecker was sent out from
Nashville to clear the track. This
work was not completed until early
this morning.
e. M. Flack is congratulating him
self on not coming to Clarksville yes
terday. He says that it is invaria-
bly, his custom when he gets on the
accommodation train at Guthrie to
lie down on one of the rear seats and
go to sleep. Had he done this last
night there is little doubt that he
would have been killed.

SWIFT JUSTICE.
Henry Grizzard Hanged at
Goodlettsville by a Mob.
A Posse of Citizens Take the Law Into
Their Own Hands and Mete Out
Summary Justice.

| The account of the terrible affair at
Goodiettsville which appeared, by
special news service, in the LEAF
CHRONICLE of yesterday, revealed
crime that has few parallels In the
criminal annals Of the State. II is not
strange then that the citizens took
the law into their own hands and
meted out summary justice to Henry
Grizzard, the ring.leadtr in the dia-
bolical crime. He was hanged, and
the following from the American tells
how it was done:
"The proof against Henry Grizzard
being positive, the crowd surged
down the road to find suitable tree
on which to hang him. Crossing the
bridge they stopped at a sycamore
tree by the side of the road and
which overhung the creek.
1.-THE road for quarter OF mile
in each direction was alive with peo.
pie. 1t looked like an army, as
nearly every man had a gun and
pistol. None of the crowd wore the
slightest disguise.
"The rope was again put around
Henry Grizzard's head, and the
other end thrown over stout limb
about twelve feet above the ripping
water of the creek.
at was half an hour before the
fatal purpose was carried into execu-
ton. An attempt was made to ex-
tract a confession from Grizzard
that he committed the rape,
but he emphatically denied it,
ia spite of the overwhelming
circumstantial evidence and the posi-
tive Identification. 1t was also
hoped that he would tell something
further about his companion, but he
said no more than that he was at Mrs
Bruce's house with Mack Harper.
"Your time has come this is your
last chance to say anything" said
one of the party, who had hold of the
rope.
"Knowing his impending doom,
the negro offered prayer and then
said. goodbye, gentlemen"
"The rope was pulled up and the
miserable miscreant was suspended
in the air, his feet hanging to within
a foot and half of the water.
"The deed was witnessed with evi.
dent satisfaction by the assemblage
of vigilantes. Somebody pinned an
envelope on the hanging negros
breast.On this envelope was written:
"Death to the man that cuts this
rope before II M"

A man well known all over the world

Agency. which has its headquarters at
Us la Sale street, Chicago.
Mr.. Bruce is a great worker; nothing
escapes his keen and active mind, and,
like most men who are enterprising and
tireless In their business, he has over
worked his brain and kept his nerves up
on such strain and tension that nervous
difficulties resulted. In fact, he felt that

"7here's something behind IT,"
That's what you think, perhaps,
when you read that the proprietors
of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy offer
$500 reward for an incurable case
of Catarrh. Rather unusual, you
think, to find the makers of medi-
cine trying to prove that they be-
lieve in it. "There must be some
thing back of it,"
But it's a plain, square offer, made
in good faith. The only thing that's
back of it is the Remedy. 1t cures
Catarrh in the Head. To its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties, the worst cases yield,
no matter how bad or of how long
standing. 1t has a record that
goes back for 25 years, 1t doesn't
simply relieve - it. perfectly and
permanently cures. With a Rem
edy like this, the proprietors can
make such an offer and mean it.
To be sure there's risk in it, but
it's so very small that they are
willing to take it.
You've "never heard of anything
fike this offer ?" True enough.
But then you've never heard of
anything like DIR. Sage's Remedy,

him with criminal libel in writing and publish.
ing in a newspaper in this city matters deroga-
tory of the character and conduct Of Capt
Thomas W. Symons.
1t is understood that the case will be aban-
doned, in accordance with the suggestion of q
letter from Capt Symons to the chief of en-.
gineers. The letter says:
The length of time that has elapsed since the
publication Of the libelous article and my
change of duties to a new and distant field. has
softened and done away with all personal feel
ings Of bitterness and indignation at being
SO mercilessly maligned in respect to the
performance Of duty which l believe
was well done and of which I felt proud
There Is not the shadow of doubt as to ability
to prove the falsity Of the charges made by
Crane. But for me to go to Washington and
prosecute the case would require an expendi-
ture Of time and money that would interfere
injuriously with the government interests
under my charge. and that can i'll nfford per-
sonally. 1t would also be very unpleasant for
me to return to the city Of Washington upon
such an errand"

Measures Being Taken to Prevent Its Intro
duction Into This Country.
The Secretary of State received a cablegram
today from United States Consul johnson at
Hamburg stating that there were 295 cases of
cholera yesterday and lS0 deaths therefrom.
The Treasury Department are awaiting with
come anxiety the arrival of the transatlantic
feet due at New York, Philadelphia and Balti-
more today, tomorrow and Monday. Several
Of these steamers sailed from infected ports,
and the department il anxious to learn il they
have brought any cholera-
II no cases have broken out on board but
little alarm will be felt. As ii takes from six
to eight days for these steamers to make the
voyage, and as cholera manifests itself usually
within thirty-six hours, sufficient time will have
elapsed to show whether the plague is on
board.
Surg. Gen. wyman has returned to the CITY
and is in constant communication with Assistant
Secretary Spaulding. DR.. wyman says that a
proposition is now under consideration TO con-
tinue the disinfection Of baggage during the
winter. This will be done to prevent the i'm
portation OF cholera germs after the present
alarm has subsidized, and which would lie
dormant during the cold months to break out
next summer in some unexpected place.
Secretary Foster has turned over to the ma
Ewing, now tied up at Baltimore. and she will
be taken down the bay to the quarantine sta
ton, where she will be anchored off shore
and will be fitted up for hospital,
81 that II any cholera patients are found
aboard any Of the incoming ships they will
not have to be landed for treatment in the hos
pitfalls ashore, but can be kept entirely isolated
on board the Ewing. 1t is probable the Ewing
will be retained permanently by the marine
hospital service as hospital ship at the Cape
Charles station.
DR.. Wyman is in communication with the
Canadian health authorities TO prevent the in
PRODUCTION of cholera into the United States by
way of Canada.
1t is understood that the revenue steamer
Crawford will aid the Cape Charles quarantine
officers in the work of inspection Of incoming
steamers.

Navy Department to loan the marine hospital
service old hulk or abandoned vessel of
some kind to be used hospital at the Cape

partment is unable to comply with the request,

Sickness Among the Passengers.

Secretary Foster today received report from
Immigration Commissioner Stockbridge at Bal
timore in relation to the sickness that oc-
CURED among the passengers Of the North
German Lloyd Steamer Dresden, which ar
rived at Baltimore from Bremen at noon on
the 25th instant. Commissioner Stockbridge
says the vessel passed the quarantine inspection
and was pronounced in perfect sanitary condi-
ton. The immigrants were also inspected
and passed by the surgeon Of the marine
hospital at the port. Later in the evening
two Of the passengers were taken with cramps
and vomiting and little later two others were
also taken sick The marine hospital surgeon
was promptly summoned, and at his
suggestion DR.. McShane, the local health COM
missioner was also summoned. At the same time
all ingress to and all egress from the building
was stopped, the sick removed to the ship and
all passengers detained for thirteen hours. The
usual remedies in the case of cramps were ad-
ministered to the sick, the doctors all
concurring that the illness was cramps
brought on by the overeating Of fruit. At the
expiration of the detention above mentioned,
those who had been taken sick having recovered
and no other sickness having appeared. and
with the approval Of the health authorities, the
passengers were released and allowed to pro-
coed to their destination.
