DEATH AT A CELEBRATloN.
Two Kegs of Powder Explode
With Frightful Results!

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark, Nov. 17.-The
Democrats of Mountain View held a
presidential election celebration in the
district school house at that place last
night, and terrible disaster ended the
proceedings prematurely. Anvil firing
and the discharge of fireworks were the
features of the jollihcation, and, as a
consequence, large quantity of eXplo-
sives had been provided. A portion of
these had been stored in the school
house.
During the speechmaking, and while
the building was packed with men,
women and children, two kegs of pow
der exploded. The results were fright
full. The school house was totally
wrecked and most of its occupants
buried in the ruins. Those who could
extricate themselves set about at once
to rescue the others. Shrieks and means
came from the mass of wrecked tim
bers. andit was evident that the calam-
ity was terrible one. The debris took
fire In several places, and it required
hard work to prevent the cremation of
the persons who were imprisoned. The
flames were Subdued, however, only one
person suffering from the fire.
A son and daughter of Silas Graham
were taken out dead, and Berry Sherod,
one of the most prominent residents of
Washington county, was so badly in
|. iured that he has since died. Another
man, whose name has not been learned,
was also killed. Fifteen other persons
were injured, some fatally, but their
names have not been learned here.
Berry Sherod suffered horrible agones,
mentally as well as physically, before
he was gotten out of the ruins. He was
pinned down by timbers and was burned
beyond recognition. He lived several
hours after being rescued.

1t Is Believed That This Will
Cause the Disintegration of

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. 17.-Despite
the efforts made by his friends, the Till
man letters continue to be source of
turmoil at the Alliance convention. The
body went into secret session at 10
o'clock this morning, and President
Loucks suppressed determination to
introd uce resolution bringing the
whole matter before the Alliance and
then demanding Tillman's expulsion

Macune's stock for president took
sudden rise this morning, and now his
friends are confident of their ability to
beat Loucks. The claim that If Macune
is elected his association with Tlllman
as member of the executive board will
cause the dislntegration of the order as
made by the Northern and Western
Peoples party. Fraternal delegates from
the grange were admitted to the con-
Yention floor this morning.
The Reform Press association con-
cluded its labors today. The features

FLEW DOWN A MOUNTAIN.
Remarkable and Exciting Rail-
road Accident in Mexico.

Remarkable and Exciting Rail-
road Accident in Mexico.
MONTEREY, Mex, Nov. 17.-The par
ticulars of one of the most remarkable
and exciting railroad accidents that ever
occurred in Mexico have reached here.
The catastrophe occurred four days ago
on the Mexican National line. The
grade of the road from this city for
distance of ninety miles beyond Saltilio
is very steep. On Sunday afternoon
double-headed train was pulling train
load of corn up the mountain side, when
the compiling broke, releasing the caboose
and six ears, flied with corn, from the
train. James Martin, the conductor,
and Frank HarWood, brakeman, tried
to set the brakes, but were p0werless to
stop the increasing momentum of the
cars down the mountain.
Within a distance of six miles the
train was running at speed of ninety
miles an hour. The cars began Jumping
the track, and Martin and Harwood
both went down, meeting terrible
death. Before Saltillo was reached all
of the cars, with the exception of the
cabooSe and one other, had left the
track. These two continued their mad
flight, passing through. Saltillo yards at
the rate of fully 100 miles an hour.
The train dispatcher at Saltillo was
terror-strcken when he saw the cars
pass, as he knew they were certain to
crash into another rdOuble-header freight
train that was pulling up. the mountain
twenty miles below Saltill0. He could
give the train no warning, so he did the
next best thing By having the wfeckihg
train ordered out. The caboose and
loaded cars kept to the track. Frank
Davis, the engineer of the ap train, saw
| them coming down the mountain, but
too late to save himself, His fireman
and the crew CT the second engine
jumped aud received but slight injuries.

RESUBMlSSION.
Prohibition to BE Knocked Out in
South Dakota.


Special to the Globe
SIOUX FALLS, Nov. 17.-Now that the
election excitement has about died out,
the people of South Dakota are becom-
ing interested in the resubmiSSion ques-
tion. Owing to the fact that .Ittle was
said regarding this question during the
campaign just closed it might be i'll
ferred that resubmission was dead
issue, but such is far indeed from the
case. Your correspondent had lengthy
interview with one Of the leading lights
in the reSubmisSion move in this state
gentleman who is as much, II not
more, interested in the question than
any other resident of the state.
10 the question, GLOW does reSub-
mission stand with the newly elected
legislature?" he replied:
"First-class. You will remember we
lacked barely one vote in the last legiS-
ture of carrying the measure-the sick
ness Of senator from Black Hills
knocking us out. There will be no such
failure this year. We have nice, snug
najority in the lower house, and, while
we will not have as big vote in the
upper house. we will have enough.
While the other side thought we were
sleeping we were quietly getting in our
work. Two years ago we waited until
the legislature was elected and then be-
gan our work. We worked different
scheme this time. We did our work in
the primaries and at the conventions,
and got men nominated whom we could
rely on. Yes. Sir, you just remember
what | tell yOu-the legislature just
elected will pass resubmiSSion bill

nation, and talked rather wildly about
the matter. He denounced the manage
ment of the campaign, ,sofemnly affirmed
that he had not only made the Peoples
party, but also laid claim to the making
of Donnelly himself. He accused the
Sage of ingratitude, saying:
"Donnelly is ungrateful and orge IS
the men who make him."
The coming annual meeting OF the
state Alliance will be held about the
time OF the meeting OF the legislature,
and for the reason that many of the
senators and representatives will desire
to attend it is quite likely that the
place of meeting will be changed from
St. Cloud to Minneapolis or st. Paul.
Gen. Weaver, Mrs. Lease and L. v.
PowderIy will be present and deliver
addresses, and very large attendance
is expected.
Today the executive committee of the
Alliance will meet and accept the
resignation OF Fish, probably pass con
gratulatory resolutions over the rid
dance of the pair, and arrange for the
annual meeting.

LONG BRANCH, N. j.. Nov. IA
most severe storm is raging along this
portion of the coast and considerable
damage IS being done to bulkheads,
bluffs and property. The big iron pier

Where there are no bulkheads the sea IS

PATERNITY AT STAKE.
A ChiId's Rirthright Determined
by a Court.


MADISON, Wis, Nov. 17.-The su-
preme court of the state of Wisconsin
has just passed upon case, the like of
which is not found in the annals of adj
judcature. 1t involves the right of a
little child 10 an Inheritance and the
question OF paternity. The story of the
circumstances surrounding Francis
Bhuman's entrance into this world will
be read with interest.
Oct 8, 1884, an action for divorce was
begun by Leila lngle against Andrew
Ingle, of GAINESVILLE, Wis. During the
eendahcy of the action Mr.. and Mrs.
Ingle lived in the same house, sat at the
same table and occupied adjoining
rooms with door between. The divorce
was granted Nov. ID, and exactly three
months later Mrs. Ingle became the
wife of Alexander Shuman. Two hun
ared and thirty-fve days after the di-
vorce flom lngle, which would be 149
days after her marriage to Shuman. a
daughter was born 10 her, who received
the name Francis. The mother died
before the child was three years old,
possessed in her own right Of about $50,-
000 worth Of property. TO share in
this Francis was entitled, but there was
question that of property involving. as
It did, her birthright. Although born
Aurlng the WedlOck of her mother and
Andrew Shuman, there was strong
presumption that she was not his child,
but the child OF the former husband,
Andrew Ingle. Ingle is quite wealthy,
and the determination that she is his
daughter would, besides yindicating her
mothers good name, give her an inter
Est in Ingle's estate.
Shuman has contended that the child
was his issue. and the mother being
dead fought from the lowest courts to
the highest to substantiate his claim, at
The expense of the mothers reputation,
for the testimony Of the physicians was
TO the effect that the little one was fully
developed when born, and if that was
true and Shuman's claim of paternity
was also well founded, it would bring
hishOnoT upon her in consideration Of
the fact that Shuman and her mother
had been married but four mouths and
Lwenty-one days before her birth. lie
was cOntendihg for life estate in all of
Mrs. Shuman'S property, and the ad-
mission that Francis was the daughter
Of Ingle would deprive him of the use
Df her snare of her mothers estate.
Soho fought the case to the supreme
court three times, twice on questions of
technical law, a@d on the last time on
the merits. The court of last resort in
dhe state now declares that Francis is
