history, and it is expected that within
the next fOrty-eight hours the names of

done by outsiders, but it is now learned
that six well-knoWn students were re-
sponsible. All the young men are
members of very prominent families
in different parts of the country, and
the announcement of their names
IS sure to create an uproar. The
boys come from different parts
Of the East, West and South.

Trouble in Indianapolis.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 17.-Section
OF No. Il freight train on the Chesa-
peake, Ohio & Southwestern railroad,
north-bouDd, was wrecked at 10 o'clock
this morning, and fourteen cars, ten
stock cars and four loaded coal flats,
with the engine. were precipitated
down a steep embaRkment, between
West Point and Muldraugh, KY, twenty
four miles south of Louisville. Three
lives were lost,O one man probably fatally
injured. three others slightly hurt, and
about hundred cattle and as many
hogs were slaughtered. The dead are:
THOMAS KEEGAN, engineer, of
Louisville.
JACK DOWNS, fireman, of Louis

STEPHEN JOYCE, a taller, whose
home is in Newark.
The injured are: Albert Church. col

bruised badly.
None of the three last named we're Sc
riously hurt. The three tailorS were
stealing ride. They were not tramps,
and had been working at Owensooro,
KY, but were out of work and money,
and were trying to reach this city.
They were put of the train at Red Hill
by Brakeman Hodges. but got on again
as it pulled out. Joyce leaves a widow
and child at Owensboro. Engineer
keegan was conscious when taken from
the wreck. and lived for three hours,
remaining conscious to the last
He leaves widow and two
children. Joyce and Downs were
instantly killed. The cause of the ac-
eident was the jumping off the track of
the trucks of stock car in the middle
OF the train. They bumped along the
ties for 200 yards until narrow part OF
the roadbed was reached. with precip-
itous slopes on both sides. The de-
rallied car at this point struck some
rotton ties on the west side. The ties
gave way and the whole weight Of the
car being thus placed on the edge OF
the slope, the rOadbed gave way an d
slipped down the hill. Cars and truck
went together, and. the couplings
holding, the engine was bodily dragged
after them. The engine went high
in the air and turned completely
over. entirely wrecking it. The
cars in the middle of the train went TO
the bottom of the hill aud were smashed
into kindling wood. In one hog car
every animal was killed but one, and
the cries, squeals and means of the
wounded and imprisoned cattle, hogs
and sheep were most distressing. a
relief train with surgeons was sent out
from Louisville. A work train with a
large force of men was soon at work
clearing the track, which was clear at Z
o'clock. Five box cars and the caboose
remained on the track. In the caboose
were Conductor Wheeler and six stock
men, all of whom escaped injury. The
coroner's jury censured the railroad
company for the condition of the track,
to which the accident was attributed.

OYSTER BOATS FIGHT.
Many Shots Fired in a Fight on
the Annamessex.

BALTIMORE, Dec. II. The oyster
police sloop Addie Shelton and the
oyster dredging schooner a. E. Parks
had fight, just before sunrise, at the
mouth of the great Annamessex river,
Somerset county, Thursday morning.
Robert Ridgely, cOIored, hand on the
dredge boat, had his right Jaw shot
away. The dredge boat was at the
mouth OF the river at 3 O'Clock with her
sails run up. Whether she had been
dredging or was about TO dredge is not
known, but it is said she was on illegal
grounds. Police Sloop Capt. j. E. Muir
opened fire on the dredge boat. The
latter did not heave to, Capt. Muir
claims, but sailed on. The police boat
probably thought the schooner was run
ming away, ana gave chase. all the time
firing after her. The captain of the
oyster boat is quoted as saying he did
not know the police were firing at him
until Riagely had been shot. He then
hove to with riddIed rigging and an in
dented boat. The police boat did not
make any arrests. Ridgely was brought
TO Baltimore on the steamer Eastern
Shore by William E. Ford yesterday
morning, and sent to the marine hos
pitai.

situated seven miles north of this place.
was discovered on fire. Up to this
evening efforts to quench the flames
have been unsuccessful. No one seems
to know how the fire started. One
thousand feet OF hose belonging to the
Evanston FIRE department was sent and
used in putting out the fire, and !. 900
feet additional hose arrived today. AS
the fire is down on the fifth level of the
mine. 900 feet below the surface of the
ground, it was found the hose could
not be used 10 any advantage. Besides.
at o'clock this morning a slight
explosion drove the men from the mine.
Supt. Black arrived from Rock Springs
today. After looking over the situation,
it was decided to close ali vent holes in
the mine and endeaYor 10 smother the
ire. This may be accomplished in a
few days or it may never be done, as
was the case with No. mine. which
has been burning over ten years. If
No. has to be permanently closed, it
will be great loss to the Union Pacific
company, as it is the only mine the
company now owns and was opened at a
great expense. 1t will also be great
loss to this community, as a large force
OF men will be throWn out or empIoy-
ment.

DENVER, Dec. IA state deputy
game warden has found another small
herd OF Duffalos, larger than the one
found in Lost park last summer, in
North park. Routt county, a region
more isolated than any other part of
Colorado. The herd is said to consist of
TWO dozen of the rare animals. They
are very tame and are fed regularly by
some of the few farmers who inhabit
the lonely park. These people have
constituted themselves special pro-
tectors Of the herd. Its existence was

Because of the Unsettled State OF
Affairs

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE British
steamer Cyril, Capt. Oliphant, which
arrived last evening. reports that quiet
feeling prevailed a: Manacus when the
steamer left. Three small gunboats
were in the harbor at the time, two of
which have one large gun. The other
carries six guns. They are said to be
loyal TO PeiXotO, but would probably
favor Mello should events tend that
way. There was considerable lack of
harmony between the army and navy
forces. Little business was being trans.
acted, and the towns are filled with
numerous unemployed men. At Para
there was very little news of an exciting
nature. The people care little of the
tide of public affairs. They are simply
waiting for something TO turn up. Busi-
ness was very quiet, and the merchants
are grumbliug and dissatisfied at the
rA-t@ as nifsirs existing.

WIRES BURNED OUT.
Several Rather Serious Fires in
indianapolis.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 1.-THE cross
ing of electric wires caused considerable
damage in several downtown stores
this evening. 1t seems that an arc and
incandescent wire came in contact,
creating short circuit. The wires
thus coming in contact burned and set
ire to woodwork touching them. From
this cause five fires were started at
once in various parts of the business
district. and the whole fire department
was kept busy. They were in Kinks
cloak house, on Illinois street; Charles
Mayer 81 Sons toy house. on Washing
ton street; Marota'S shoe store. on
