Cole was in court when the decision
was read. The judges language
brought broad smile 10 his countenauce
and consciousness of victory could be
seen in his every feature
He forgot for the time being that there
even was such q thing as an election for
justice of peace in which he didn't get a
vote, the memory of which was blurred
by the sight of a 5000 check before his
imagination if not almost before his ewes.
In fact he was almost ready to suggest n
compromise and demand the check He
had no doubt but that victory confronted
him before any jury before which he
could bring his case.
That was a good decision of Judge
MacDOuel's,n he remarked with a
smile as he left the court room and went
at once to prepare the amendments to
his petition. In an hour he had them all
written out, copies of all the letters
asked for included, and had fled his

CHICAGO, May 6.-That jackson park

payment Of fifty cents will entitle any
member of the great public to entrance
Just as it has for the past six months,

perintendent. Tucker, Of the bureau OF
admission, understands that his force
is expected TO work on Sunday and has
made all arrangements accordingly.
a 1t has been the rule in the past to
have gates open on the Sabbath, and
as there has been no order to make q
change, Tucker will continue as usual.
The condition that existed at jackson

MRS. DEPEW DEAD.
The Wife of Chauncey NJ, Depew Passe'

The wife of Chauncey NJ, Depew Passes
Away.
New YORK. May s.-Mrs Eliza Hege-
man Depew, wife of Chauncey NJ. De-
pew died at her residence in this city
at 1890 yesterday afternoon.
Although Mrs. Depew was known to
be seriously i'll, this sudden termina-
ton of her illness was not expected by
her family and those who were most
intimately connected with her Mrs.
Depew, whose maiden name was Miss
Eliza Hegeman, was married to Mr..
Depew November a. 1871. They have
had one child, Ghauncey NJ. Depew, Jr.,
who is now IA years old.
In spite of the opportunities that her
fortune gave her, Mrs. Depew cared lit
tie for society and devoted her time
mainly to charitable and church work.
She has for years been the president OF
the Woman's Association of Hahnemann
hospital, and was also connected with
score or more of different church as.
sociations.
During the past two years Mrs. Depew
has been an invalid. During the fes-
tivites at Fortress Monroe attendant
upon the visit of the foreign war ships,
Mrs. Depew made a trip to the place in
the hope of improving her health. This
expectation, was not realized, however
She became much worse and was
brought home feebler than when she
left ID sI.H Il.

New York, May e.--R. &. Dun & Co. q
weekly review of trade says: Had busi-
ness In Wall street been unsounder or
unhealthy the collapse of prices dur
the past week might have caused a
panic. Nearly all stocks fell, but the
industrials were most seriously de-
pressed, while the average decline in
all stocks was about 5000 per share for
the week. Cordage fell 4s points, Sugar
40 and Manhattan 26. Several failures
occurred without general disturbance,
and the appointment Of receivers for
the Cordage was in some sense a relief.
Other speculative markets are on the
whole rather stronger than q week ago.
At nearly all points the backward
season and bad weather with slow col
lections give cause Of complaint. AT
Pittsburgh the iron trade is still more
depressed, but business in glass is fair
ly good. Trade at Cincinnati is quiet,
but collections are very slow and
mouey is in active demand. At Clcve-
land business is fair to quiet and ut De-
troit the backward season causes a
shrinhage Of 10 to 10 per cent. in or
ders. At Fort Wayne slow collections
are reported and at Indianapolis money
Il close. Chicago reports shrinking

Tho Army Bill the Cause Of Much Trouble

BERLIN, May 6.-Thc excitement at
the reichstag surpasses anything wit
messed there since the last hours before
the dissolution of the septennate in
1887. The government has been scurry-
ing hither and thither for votes and de-
puties have been too uneasy to remain
in the house. The corridors and
lobbies have been thronged with groups
in eager conversation. The speakers
have talked to empty benches. ..
Frierher Won Huene has not relaxed
his efforts to help the chancellor de-
spite the action Of his party caucus.
lie appeared in the lobby in the
afternoon holding in his hand the
copy of new amendment proposed
by Maj. Hinze, the dissident radical At
once he was the center Of a group OF
conservative deputies, upon whom he
exhausted his eloquence to secure their
support of clause making a man
datory provision for the two-year term
for all branches of the service. The
amendment was not received enthusi-
astically by the conservatives. A few
minutes later DIR. Won Boctticher has
tened into the lobby with large group
of conservatives in tow. He, too, was
trying to make converts to the tlinze
amendment. As he passed with his
following HerrVon Kossiol-Kosscielsky,
leader of the Poles, remarked sneer-
ingly:
"Thcre goes Boetticher, offering the
bill for sale to the highest bidder"
The bitterness of the opposition
clericals increases hourly. The leader
of the Bavarian clericals said to the
Associated press correspondent yester-
day afternoon that If the bill should be
passed with the assistance Of the Prus-
sian clercals, the Bavarian members
would summon Immediately a caucus
in Regensburg. They would there de-
clare their secession from the clerical
party and establish political organ
| ization of Bavarian clerica.s who would
cooperate with the Wurtembergers,
Alsatians, Westphalians, Rhinelanders
and friendly Prussians to resist the
over-reaching projects of militaryism.

IMMIGRATION LAW LoOPHOLE.
IL Is Disclosed by Ruling of Superin-
tendent Stump.

tendent Stump.
WASHINGTON, May 6.--Supcrintcndent
OF Immigration Stump has made an i'm
portant decision in the case Of an ap-
peal from the ruling of the comrnis-
sloner OF immigration at New York
in the matter of a number of Italian
immigrants. The commissioner had re-
fused to allow seven of them to land on
the ground that their landing would be
In violation of the alien contract labor
law. They appealed to Superintendent
Stump, who, on looking up the case,
sustained the commissioner ass far as
three of the immigrants were con-
cerned, it appearing that they had
entered into a contract with o men,
Der OF a firm in New York before they
left Italy. As to the other men he
found they had not entered into any
contract, but had left Italy on an un-
derstanding that a boss on railroad
in the United States could furnish em-
.ployment to more men II he had them
There was no contract expressed or i'm
piled in any way, and the men were ac-
cordingly admitted. This seems to dis
close loophole in the contract labor
law through which large numbers of
laborers can be imported into the coun-
try if there is no agreement of any kind
entered into on the other side, but they
are simply given to understand that
there is work for them to do on this
side as soon as they come over. a..
Mr.. Stump also made decision in the
case of the fifty-sevcn Eskimo, who
were brought into the country under
the terms of the special law permitting
laborers to come in under contract for
the Chicago exposition. They were to
occupy an Eskimo village" in the ex-
position. After their arrival in the
United States, however, they were in
duced to leave the employ of the expo
sition people and set up an Eskimo viii
lage outside of the exposition grounds.
The exposition authorities said the
Eskimo had violated their contract and
were no longer protected by the special
law under which they were admitted,
and asked for their expulsion from the
country.
Mr.. Stump decided that as they had
complied with all the requirements Of
the law at the time of their entrance
into the country, their violation Of
their contract since that time was n
private matter, with which he had
nothing to do. He has referred the
matter to the United States district at
torney at Chicago for investigation.

Fearfui Accident on the Big Four at Lafay-

| work Results In an Awful Fatality. ss7
LAFAYETTE, Ind, May s--One Of the
most horrible wrecks in the history Of
railroading occurred on the Big Four
road IN this city yesterday morning as
result of which ten men are now
dead and many more injured. The
train was the eastbound passenger
leaving Chicago at o p. m. The acci-
dent was caused by the failure of the
air brakes to work. The engineer un-
doubtedly discovered this before ,reach-
ing the cut beyond the Wabash river,
as vigorous whistling Of the engine for
brakes could be heard when the train
was still mile west Of the city, The
engineers desperate efforts to stop the
train was shown by the large amount
OF sand thrown by him on the bridge
through which the train came Just be-
fore the fatal crash. Hts IS sts,it
The Engine dashed out Of the bridge
over the Wabash river at speed Of not
less than sixty miles an. hour, crashing
into the depot building and carrying
Off a portion of the depot and train
sheds several hundred feet The en-.
CINE when it left the track, followed by
the baggage car, two postal cars and
express car, was piled in one promiscu-
GUS mass, total and complete wreck,
burying score or more of victims in
the awful pile The trucks of the first
day coach were dragged out and the
side of the car knocked into fragments
but no passengers in this car were in,
1ured. The chair car and two Pullman
sleepers remained on the track. The
wreck was most complete one, the
engine and cars being torn to pieces
and piled up together with their con
tents. To add to the CONSERVATION
fire broke out from the stove in the
baggage car, but the city fire depart
ment speedily extinguished the flames
A large crowd of citizens gathered
very quickly at the scene of the dis
aster and assisted in rcscuing the vic.
TINS and large force of local physi
clans gave the necessary attention tc
the wounded. Several victims of the
wreck were persons standing in the
depot waiting for the train, among
them hackman, mail cart driver and
some passengers. The dead are:
Michael Welch, engineer, Indianapo
lis. .
Fireman McInnis, indianapolis.
Ed Myers, Logansport, mail clerk.
NJ. c. Mahon, Cincinnati, express mes
scnger. ~
A. r. Chadwick, Cincinnati, mai

Jesse Long, Lebanon, Ind mail clerk
Charles Schapill, passenger, jus

Otto Gesselson, Alhambra hotel, Chi
cago, passenger going to the train,
All were frightfully crushed ant
mangled, limbs being severed in sevcra
instances, and heads and bodies terri
bly, disfgured ---.--.
The damage to property destroyed
will be fully 5000 while the subse
quent losses, which will grow out o
the disaster, will make the total very
large sum.
The accident, as has been stated, wa
caused BY the failure of air brakes t,
