THREW A SWITCH.

Unknown Miscreants Cause Disaster on
the Wabash RailrOad-Engineer Killed
and Fireman Fatally Injured-A Wreck
on the Pennsylvania.
TOLEDO, O., Oct. 1.-While going at
the rate of fifty mites an hour, passen-
ger train No AZ, the Wabash Pacific
express, due here at 7:25 a. m., ran into
an open switch mile west of Maumee
shortly before Z o'clock yesterday
morning. Engineer f, N. Smith was
instantly killed and Fireman A. H
Day received injuries which will likely
cause his death in few hours.
The locomotive left the track as it
entered the switch and turned over
with the drivers up, pinning Smith and
Day underneath. The mail car. too,
was derailed, but escaped damage.
None of the passengers were hurt.
Smith and Day live in the city and
have been with the road only since the
recent strike. Both are married. The
switch had been thrown by some un-
known person and the target set to
show it was all right.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1.-The New
York & Washington express on the
Pennsylvania railroad, which left Broad
street station at 1905 a. M, collided
with runaway switch engine at Thir-
ty-sixth street and six persons were
hurt and all aboard the express badly
shake up by the shock. None of the
injured passengers were seriously hurt,
and with one exception were able to go
on their journey. After short delay
the train proceeded on its way.

Later Reports From the Florida Coast In
dIeate That the Damage by the Great
Gale WIN Aggregate Over S6OO,0OO.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. 29.-Com-
munication with south Florida Is being
restored and reports are pouring in
relative to the damage done by the
West Indian cyclone which ragged in
the state Tuesday and Wednesday.
The dispatches all tell the same story
of houses wrecked and crops destroyed,
but no loss of life is reported A dis
patch from Tampa yesterday, which is
the first information received from
that place since Tuesday, says several
large cigar factories were wrecked.
The First Presbyterian church and
the palatial Tampa Bay hotel were
badly damaged. Several smaller struct-
ures were also demolished. The total
loss on buildings at Tampa is estimated
at $4,000. Communication with Fer
nande is also restored. During the
storm at Fernandina, two British
steamships came in collision and suf-
fered considerable damage. A dispatch
from Palatka announces great damage
at that place to river craft The steam
er Princess was sunk between Palatka
and Picolata She is valued at $4,000
Advices were also received from St.
Augustine, which had been cut off
since Tuesday, The advices we're
brought by Mrs. Anna M. Narcotic,
who made the trip on hand car. Mrs,
Narcotic gives a graphic account of
the condition of the storm at st. Au-
gustine. No lives were lost but several
houses were wrecked and the losses
will run into the thousands. Nearly
all the windows in the city are blown
in and the houses flooded with water
The Ponce De Leon hotel was dam
aged in this way. The loss on the hotel
furniture is heavy. At st. Augustine
the waves dashed over the sea walls
and made rivers of the streets. Many
wharves were blown away.
| Between Green Cove Spring ami Pa
latka, on the st. Johns twelve wharyes
have completely disappeared. Between
Jacksonville and st. Augustine not a
telegraph pole was left standing. The
damage to the orange growers is meal
culable. In the large groves the ground
is completely covered with green Or
anges. The loss will be fully 20 per
cent Every effort is being made to
hear from Titusville, Jupiter and Key
West, which are supposed to have been
in the storms center. Dispatches indi-
cate that the storm was as severe in
the interior OF the state as on the coast.
1t is safe to say that the storm has
cost Florida more than half million
dollars, but no lives have been lost, un'
less at Key West, Titusville, Jupiter
and other east coast points.

Four Miners Killed.

SCRANTON, Pa, Sept. 29.-The lives
Of four men, two miners and two labor
ers, were without warning crushed out
in the northwest colliery of Simpson &
Watkins, at Simpson, near Carbondale,
late Thursday afternoon. Their man
gled remains, as near as can be ascer-
tanned, lie beneath fall of rock which
is ten feet wide, six feet high, and ex-
tends for at least sixty feet in the
gangway off from the third slope Of the
mine. The killed are: William B.
Mitchell, John ]. Tanning, Andrew
Clapkosky and George Barney.
Tug Willis, driver, was the only
witness of the horror, and his escape
seems almost miraculous He was sit
ting alongside the track waiting for a
car to be loaded by the ill-fated men,
when the roof of the gangway fell
with deafening crash within three
feet of him. Without hating, he ran
to the head of the slope, followed by q
track-layer and two miners, who were
working in the vicinity, and gave the
alarm

WAR ON GAMBLERS.

The Grand Jury in Chicago Has Spared No
Property Owners Who Lease Buildings
for Gambling Purposes.
CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-Among the indict-
ments returned by the grand jury Sat
urday, were those of j. Irving Pearce,
Owen F. Adds, number of other well
known citizens, owners of buildings
said to be used for gambling purposes,
and numerous members of the gambling
profession. The penalty for letting
property for gaming purposes is $500
for the first offense, a fine of $500 and
six months imprisonment for the SEQ
ond offense and fine of 81, 900 and two
years Imprisonment for the third
offense. The cases in question are all
"irst offenses."
This is the first batch of indictments
that have been returned under the law
in this county, and this perhaps ac-
counts for the first offenses." This
grand jury has spared no property
owner who has let his property to be
used for gambling and has considered
neither wealth nor reputed respecta-
bility.

A POLITICAL SCANDAL.

Sensational Charges Made by Notorious
Lottery Man Of Kansas City Against the
State Onicials Of Kansas.
TOPEKA, Kan, Oct 1.-The republic
an state central committee yesterday
gave out letter written by Peter w.
Kline, a notorious lottery and policy
shop man Of Kansas City, telling Of the
sum of money paid by him to repre-
sentatives of Gov. Lewelling and to At
torney General Little in person for pro-
tecting him in his illegal business on
the Missouri state line. Kine's expe-
rience with the populists dates back TO
December, 1892, month prior to the
advent of the new administration. At
that time he says he was approached
by James f. Legate, who had taken
prominent part in the populist cam
paign, and informed him that in con-
sideration of the payment of $1,000 to
him he (zline) would be permitted to
name the police commissioners for
Kansas City, Kan, and that the COVER
nor would appoint them.
Later, he saw Fred ]. Close, the gov
ernor's private secretary, who informed
him that Legate had the authority to
negotiate the proposed deal and that
anything that he promised for the gov
ernor would be carried out Upon
Closes representation he paid the
money to Legate. The latter's promise
was not fulfilled and finally Legate
again called upon Kline and told him
that the governor would require the
payment of an additional $1,000 before
he would act. Kline procured the
money and came to Topeka to see the
governor personally, but instead Of
meeting the governor he again met
Close and with him Attorney General
Little and Legate. Again he said Close
assured him that the matter would be
all right when the additional money
was paid, and he thereupon handed
over the 81 1900 to Legate for the gov
ernor and attorney general.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,

The Volume of Trade Is slightly Greater
Than in 1893, but Is Still Far From Sat-
isfactory.
New YORK, Sept. OR. G. Dun &c
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Retail trade, the last step in the move
ment from producer to consumer, is at
the same time the first step upon which
depend empty shelves in the stores and
future orders to the mills. After
months of unnatural economy, buying
should be large enough to send the
mills further orders very soon. Special
inquiry has been made this week at all
commercial centers regarding the state
of retail trade. Wide diversity appears
in different trades, and the details Of
business at the different cities merit
general attention.
The main facts disclosed are, first,
marked improvement within the past
month and considerable excess over
the business done year ago, particu-
larly in the necessaries of life. But,
second, it appears that the volume OF
trade at present is, on the whole, con-
siderably less than in normal year at
most points, and in the more important
trades is apparently about 20 per cent.
smaller than in September, 1892.
Evidence of continued Improvement
in wholesale trade and manufacture
does not appear this week. There Is
large distribution on orders given some
time ago, but new business going tc
the manufacturers is everywhere slack
ening.
The volume of business reported al
clearings at the chief cities is 60 per
cent larger than last year, but 81. 8 per
cent less than in 1892, and for the
month of September the daily average
has been $134, 100000 against $12S,000,'
900 last year before the recovery from
the panic had come, and SIT, 600, 900 in
1892. AS these include payments re
sulting from trade deferred during
months Of uncertainty, the comparison
is but moderately encouraging.

Dcafness Cnnnot be Cured

by LEGAL applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies, Deafness
is caused by an inhamed condition Of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when II is entirely closed, deafness
is the result and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by catarTh, which is nothing
but an indamed condition Of the mucous
surfaces.

that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

TRAVELLING IN FRANCE.

A Railway Decision That AntagoniEes thA
English and American Practice.
It is said, with some touch of scorn
of our insular ways, that Things are
done differently In France" but not
always better, remarks the London Il
Illustrated News. The railway passen-
ger, indeed, Is better done there, but
only in the sense of more completely
done-done brown. His luggage Is
stolen and he gets no compensation;
he finds the guard very different be-
ing from that pink of civility in Eng
land, and he can never get accustomed
to the customs. The last feat of a
French stationmaster has been to de.
eide that an article of luggage placed
on the seat does not keep your place in
a railway carriage. This to persons
travelling alone and who have nobody
to keep their place for them must be
indeed delightful. In England this
right is never questioned, though in
some Instances it is abused.
1t is recorded of certain hair-split-
ting bishop who was accustomed to
compose his charges" in the train,
and whose desk was always placed OPP
posite to him, that he invariably
treated it as though it were living
vis-a-vis. The train being very full on
one occasion, a would-be passenger in
quired if this place was taken, and the
bishop, with his sunniest smile, ex-
pressed regret that there was no room.
II don't think that was quite right,

gers, who, we may be sure, was not q
