Warner and an unknown who answered
to the nickname of "Grimy." Grimv
who was comparative stranger. &C..
cused Jackson of having stolen some
money from him. jackson denied the
charge and called Grimy thief The
two men began to fight, and drawing
razor Jackson cut Grimy across the face
The other two men took hand, and for
all hour clubs, knives and stones were
used, the noise of the conflict attracting
other laborers, who joined in the battle.
Distress signals were sent to Zion sta
ton. but no one at the village
cared to undertake the quelling of the
murderous mob. which continued to
riot until early morning. A posse of
workmen at the tunnel started in the
direction of the creek, where the mob
had last been heard. After tramp of
nearly mile toward the south they
came upon a spectacle which chilled
the blood in their veins. Lying in
ravine were the bodies of four men.
Jackson was dead, Warner died few
minutes after being found, and the 9th.
er two men are being cared for, but
they are cut to pieces, and their lives

DEADLY BOILER EXPLOSION,
Knitting Mill and Other Buildings Burned
at Albany.

ALBANY. N. Y, Dec. i9.-About 1886
o'clock this afternoon there was q ter.
rife explosion in the elevator shaft Of
the Fort Orange Milling Companys
building, facing on the river front
and backing on the Erie Canal
basin. The sparks set fire to
the dry grain and flour. In an
instant the flames had rushed
up the elevator shafts, and before an
alarm was sent in the entire structure
was one mass of flames. Charles B.
Woolverton, member of the firm, was
in the office at the time, and when the
explosion occurred started for the rear
of the office to close the safe. Before
he could get out he was surrounded
by flames, and when he managed to
fight his way through them he was
burned in most horrible manner. He
was taken home and his injuries attend
ed to. When the fremen got to work it
was seen that the building itself, a struct-
ure five stories high and 100 feet in
width, was doomed. Their efforts were
then directed to saving canal boats and
tugs laid up in the basin. The falling
timbers set fire to several of these, and
they are burning. The loss, it is esti-
mated, so far is $35, 900, with an insur-
ance of about half that amount.

Awarded $4,000 in Her Suit for Breach
of Promise.
New YORK, Dec. 19.-The jury in the
Jaco bs-Sire breach Of promise case
brought in verdict this morning find
ing verdict for the plaintiff Of SIS 600
damages.
The suit of Miss Esther Jacobs against
Henry B. Sire, which was brought in
the superior court some weeks ago to
recover 500, 900 from the defendant for
breach of promise Of marriage and con-
sequent damages. has excited a more
than local interest. Mr.. Sire IS
rich young business man with
penchant for clubs and the races,
and having an Office at 1873 Broad
way. Miss Jacobs is one Of large
family of sisters, has a musical
voice and is remarkably bright and
handsome young lady. The defense
was that the attentions of Mr.. Sire never
eliminated in an engagement but that
the Jacobs family united to get him into
a compromising dilemma and attempted
to force him into marriage with MISS
Jacobs, from mercenarv motives. Both
families are resident in this city and
were intimately acquainted for years.

He was one of the first arrested On sus-

which eight men were killed and five

There had been a collision Friday
morning at Nelson, and a number Of
cars were wrecked. The wreck train
and was making up pre- paratory to pull

bound freight YVES due about l O'Clock
and had orders to side-track for the
passenger train due here at l:2O. The
fireman on the freight tells the story
as follows: "There is a heavy grade
west of the station, and as the
freight with thirty six loaded cars, under
charge of Conductor William Mickey,
Engineer James M. Maloney, APP
preached the switch, the engine was
shut off and brakes called for. There
was no perceptible decrease Of speed I,
and Conductor Mickey climbed out of
the capoose, where he was. and began
setting brakes, but the speed was too
great to stop. When within train
length of the caboose they saw the
track was full ahead and both the en-
gineer and fireman jumped. The en-
CINE struck the wreck train and threw
the caboose on top of the next car, set
ting both on fire.
There were fourteen men in the
caboose. One jumped off, five were
hurt, three were burned beyond recog-
milton, and four were killed. One was

Illness of Justice Lamar.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. lit is
probable that Justice Lamar, of the
United States supreme court, will not sit
again with the court during the present
term. The illness which has confined
him to his bed for several days past and
orintermittent periods before the pres
ent attack, does not show any signs of
rapid improvement, although it is not
considered dangerous, and the family of
the venerable jurist think it best to re-
move him to some climate better suited
for treatment. Justice Lamar, it is be-
lieved, needs rest more than any other
medicine. and ii the slight improvement
which was perceptible yesterday and
to-day should continue he will probably
be removed from Washington to some
place not yet decided on.

DEPRESSING RUSSIAN JEWS.
Order by the Government That Will Cause
Great Misery.

ST.. PETERSBURG. Dec. 1.-THE Russian
Senate has promulgated law requiring
that Jewish artisans shall only reside IN
places where official boards of trade
yist. the pretence being that the Jews
can thus be kept more effectively under
official regulation and supervision. Off
cial boards of trade exist onlyin about III
per cent. of the towns in Russia, and
the decree therefore means a vast addl-
ton to the misery md oppression I'M
der which the Russian Jews always
labor. Many thousands of Jewish arti-
sans will be compelled to remove from
the towns in which they are located to
enter the competition for existence in
the populous centers Of the Jewish
pale. The object of the new law is be-
lieved to be to start the Jews to stirring
again, and drive them over the frontier
whether other countries are willing to
receive them or no.
