IT WAS freely admitted at the sessions
of the National Farmers Alliance held
at Topeka, KAN, that the organization
was rapidly decreasing in numbers and
influence. There were many conflict
ing opinions as to the cause and the
remedy, but the most apparent cause
for the d1minution of strength was over
looked-the folly of the endeavor to ar
ray one class against another, when
their relations should be harmonious, as
their interests are interdependent.

HERE Is loud protest against the
proposed reduction of the salaries of
public school teachers in Chicago, and
with good cause. The plan proposed is
to make pro rata cut. which would
bear severely upon those drawing small
salaries. There is no doubt but the
higher teachers in that city receive ey.
ceediGgly liberal salaries in proportion
to the work they do, and a reduction of
their compensation would be just and
meet with popular approval. But the

female, are none too we'll paid. They

ton of their pay would be hardship

COPELAND BLAZED AWAY.
Two Men Shot in the Office of Ex-Attorney
General Miller.


Indianapolis, Ind, April l7.-Ex-Attorney
Genral Miller's law office in this city was
the scene this noon of a sensational shoot
ing affray in which Addison G. Harris, a
prominent lawyer of this city, and VIM. II.
Bruning of New York, were wounded Mr..
M iller miraculously escaped. There wassa
feud which had existed since 1885 between
Bruning, Copeland's borther-in-law. In set
tling up the parents estate, Mrs. Copeland
had brought suits against her brother. The
dispositions in one case were to be taken
here today. As court adjourned at noon, Cope
land told Attorney Harris, employed by him,
that he understood the dispositions were not
to be taken as the parties were not ready.
Harris suggested that they go to the office
of Miller, Winter and Elam and see them
about it. That firm had been employed by
Bruning. AS they entered the office, Harris
recognized Bruning and advanced to shake
hands with him. Cop land also saw Brun-
ming and uiolkly DIRE a revolver and COM
menced firing. The latter attempted to de-
fend himself but Copeland followed up the
fire with two more shots before anyone
could interfere. 1t was found later that
+swo shots had taken effect in Bruning, one
breaking his jaw and the other lodging in
his arm. AS the third shot as fired, At tor
ney Harris grabbed Copeland and attempted
to hold his arm, but still another shot was
fired and Mr.. .Harris's arm was broken.
Copeland was then arrested.

THE TRAMPs' PRIVATE CAR.
1t Got in the Way of Grand Trunk Spec
ia1 and Was Smashed.

Bryant's Pond, Me. April IA Grand
Trunk train had a very narrow escape be-
tween here and West Paris last night.
Tramps took 'slaurie carr used by the
section men to carry rails and timbers along
the track. The car was locked, and side
tracked, but they broke the lock, and put
the car on the main track. Then they
started in the direction of Portland. 1t is
supposed that they knew when the regular
trains were to be expected, and perhaps
counted on making the greater portion of
the run to Portland on their own private
car, but of course they knew nothing about
the freight specials. After what must have
been a very rapid ride down sharp grade,
they probably heard the coming train, and
managed to brake up for the moment and
to take to the woods. They must under the
circumstances have run some risk, but they
saved their lives by doing it, for the en-
cine of the special struck the laurie'' at
a point where the grade was very steep,
and the curve one of the worst on this sec
tion of the road. The car was simply hurled
from the track, and over an embankment,
and the engine of the special was somewhat
damaged. A fruitlesS search was made fol
the tramps, but under cover of the dark
ness, they reached the woods. in safety.
The escape of the trsain, to say nothing OF
the tramps, may well be regarded as remark.

THELEssNN OLA COLLISION.
Railroad Commissioners Recommend 81.
nals.for Wild Trains.

Augusta, Me-, April 1.-THE railroad COM
missioners at their meeting Monday afte r
noon rendered their report on the Maine
Central railroad collision at Newport,
March 10th. They say the train, as it ap-
pears, was run under working order be-
tween the points named, from
o'clock in the morning till o'clock in the
evening, as provided by rule 81 of the COM
pany.
The section crew failed to see the ap-
preaching train till they were within five
OF six hundred feet of the train. They
were unable to remove their hand-car from
the track, by reason of the weight of the
car and tools thereon, only swinging 1t
around crosswise of the track. The col
lision was follwed in which Mr.. Wing was
killed. The commissioners say: From
the facts cited at the examination the
hoard fails to find any evidence of viola
tion of the rules of the company OF want of
vigilance or care on the part of the employ
es 1t is probable if no attempt had been
made to remove the hand-car from the
track no accident of serious nature would
have occurred. No blame can reasonhly be
attached to the men who made the attempt
to remove the car and failed in SO doing.

The attempt to do what seemed best un-

rily done when sufficient time is afforded to
do SO, deserves commentator rather than
censure.
while we hold the corporation and its
employees blameless for this accident, it
seems to us desirable and proper if possi-
BILE, that some method should be devised
and adopted by which section men
notified that a wild train, such as this one
was, is to be run over the road. 1t would
seem that system of signals might
adopted and displayed at telegraph stations
to indicate that wild train was on the
road, or that notice of the approach of
such train should be given to telegraph
stations on the line, over which it is to
pass. It seems that under existing rules
section men have no knowledge of the
proarch of such trains, except that they
may be able to see or hear such trains ap-

Bangor, April 1S.-Fire broke out in
the Merchants hotel shortly before 2
this morning, apparently starting in the
Office and going up through the entire
building in flash. The structure was a
four and a half story brick block. In
few moments the flames burst through

threatened. Nearly every room in the
house was occupied and the guests were
panic stricken. Some jumped from the
windows and several were badly cut and
bruised. One woman was taken from
the third story in her night clothes. A
man dangerously sick was taken out.
The entire fire department was called
out. At this hour (2.3O a. n.y. the flames
are still bursting through the roof.
The house was thoroughly wet down and
Quilted. The loss will be large Chris
Toole was the landlord and the building
is owned by John B. Foster. He is in
sured we'll.
Later-There were many exciting
scenes during the progress of the fire.
One man hung from back window
for some time, shouting piteously for
help. A ladder was finally raised. An
other jumped through a window, glass
and all, and was cut about the head and
hands. He wandered about like dazed
man. A woman was taken out of a
third story window by fireman, and
another woman had part of her night
clothes burned before Deing rescued.
The hotel was cheap rate house, and
had large number OF guests. so far
as known no lives were lost
