FATAL WRECK IN IOWA.

seven Persons Killed, Two Missing. aud
Three Injured as the Result Of . Collision.
MASON CITY, Ia. Sept. PA railroad
wreck occurred at New Hampton to-day
which. for the number of lives lost and
destruction of property. is the worst acci-
dent that has occurred in the State in
years. construction crew has been at
work on the main line of the Chicago Great
Western replacing rails, and this morn
ing they were ordered out from Elma
TO work on the road. About 10
o'clock they pulled into New Hampton on
the main track and stopped to do some
work. The through freight was due at the
latter point at 1015. Tho freight was a lit
tie behind time, and was running on orders
not to stop at New Hampton. The road
enters New Hampton from the north, but
within sixty rods makes q turn, going di-
rectly east. This makes bad curve in the
road, aud IL 10 rendered still worse by o
within forty T0ds of the station. The train
was going at the rate of abouJ thirty miles
an hour. When within about ten rods
from the caboose OF the construction train
the freight engineer saw the peril confront
ing HIM. and. yelling to his fireman to jump,
he reversed the lever, and both left the en-
CINE. II was just In time 10 save their
lives for q moment later the engine
smashed into the caboose, fairly splitting
it in two. and the engine csbO0se and
three freight cars were piled mp in pro-
mlscuous mass The engine was buried in
three feet of earth.
In the caboose of the construction train
were ut least twelve persons. and six OF
these were killed outright. Que has since
died, three arc dangerously injured. and
two are unaccOunted for. Ii is thought
very probable that the latter are buried
under the wreckage. 1t Is known positively
that one more man ls under the engine. for
n part of bim can be seen, and before morn
ing it IL thought his body will lie re-
covered. The work of cleaning ND the
wreck in very slow. A crowd OF
curious men, women and children crowd
in and around the wreck. but many are too
faint- heart ed TO witness some OF the sick
out of the wreck, had n great hole plowed
through his body; another's heart was ex-
posed. while others were so badly cut and
ground up as to be unrecogniZable. A part
of the wearing apparel Of a woman has
been taken out, and ii is thought she may
be buried under the debris. The boCies
are now In charge of Hndertakers. and are
being prepared for burial. Sheriff Brown
has been busy in summ0nlng q Jury and
opening an inquest. 1t will he several
daye before they will be able TO report.
Nj. Mcnamara, o travelling man from In
dependence. was ono OF the killed. lhe
remaining six men have not yet been ldcn-
titled. There was nothing ontheIr persons
by which they could be identified. A large
crew will work all night at the wreck.

DEFEAT OF THE SILVER BILL.

The House of Representatives has
refused to consider the Silver bill,
and relegated it to the foot of the
calendar. where it will rest until next
winter. Probably by that time members
may have courage to vote as their con-
science dictates and not as the party lash
determines. The result was secured by
uni6cation Of Republicans and Demo-
crats. The Democratic leaders urged
that the passage Of the bill would lose
New York State to Cleveland and the
Republicans commended that it would put
President Harrison in perilous position.
Thus matter of justice had to give
way to one of policy. 1t was case Of
Democratic cowardice and Republican
aggression. When the yeas and nays
were counted, majority of Is was re-
corded against the consideration of the
bill. The vote in its favor was cast by
lis Democrats, including the Speaker,
10 Alliance and 8 Republicans. The
negative vote was cast by "a Democrats
and 60 Republicans.

elected Francis G.. Newlands of Nevada
chairman. The session lasted three days
and the congress adjourned to meet in

the sense of the convention that bimetalic
coinage for gold and silver at the existing
ratio was the most important public
question now unsettled in the United
States, and it must so continue, as there
which to do the business OF the country.
1t is only by acting Independently of
both the Republican and Democratic
parties that the conspiracy to force the
United States to the gold standard Of
money can be thwarted. 1t was further
resolved that the people of the silver
States shape their action so as to secure
the balance OF power in the Electoral
College, so as to defeat the election of
any man as President who will not agree
to the will of the people as expressed in
any future act of Congress in relation to
silver. Resolutions were also adopted
in favor of an agreement between this
and South American republics for uni.

that during their three years of married

In his petition for the divorce he says ::
"She cannot tell the truth, and while it
is in the nature of disease l believe it
is incurable." Here are a few Of the
yarns told by his wife which Truesdale
cited in his petition fled in court; She
told him that his mother had been found
dead in bed, murdered by unknown per-
sons; that their nearest neighbor and bis
best friend had attempted criminal as
sault upon her; that she had received a
letter from a lawyer in her old home, tell
