LEXINGTON, May 6.-The town is wild
with excitement at midnight over the
sensational scenes witnessed in the
Methodist church south today. After
the noted preacher H. O. Morrison had
finished his sermon, the pastor, Rev. E.
L. Southgate, began to talk about the
attack made upon him yesterday by
Colonel Brsckinridge at the opera house.
He said he was willing to lay down his
lie, if need be, in defense of the virtue
of the women of his congregation. With
this he broke down, and then Morrison
arose and said the city of Lexington
was "Sodom and Gomorrah," aud
many of her people wanted to honor
this man (meaning Breokinridge). even
by returning him to congress.
Southgate then added that he was
sorry his original remarks before the Y.
M. @. A. had not been printed in every
paper in the land.
II repeat those remarks" he said.
81 again cay that no decent Christian
can afford to vote for this man."
His remarks were greeted with ap-

Reaper and Mower Works Burned ut
Muncle, Ind.
MUNcIE, Ind, May 6.-The William
N. Whiteley Reaper and Mower works
were destroyed by fire this morning.
The factory buildings. which cover five
acres, were located just north Of Muneie.
The loss on the baildings, which were
of wood and galvanized iron, is not great,
but the destruction of 1000 machines
ready for shipment and 1900 almost
completed, the patterns of which wore
an accumulation that has cost thous-
ands of dollars. and the costly new ma,
chinery that filed the factory, brings
the loss up to $245, 900, without q cent
of insurance. Whiteley moved his fac
tory here from Springfield, o., and has
since furnished employment to from
800 TO 500 men, majority OF whom came
here with him from Springfield. MIR,
Whitley arrived from Chicago this even
ing while the fire was in progress. He
said that the factory.would probably be
built again on much larger scale.

New YORK, May GA crank some-

Thomas church at Fifth avenue and
Fffty-third street, where Bishop Arthur
O. Hall of Vermont preached on Papsl
Infallibility.
The crank was a neatly dressed
woman who made her way up the aisle
while the choir was chanting the
anthem and the large congregation
standing. She knelt at the altar
and prayed isivently. The an

remained q conspicuous figure in
the aisle. Ushers asked her to leave,
when she snstched up the umbrella
which she had placed beside her and
waved it at Bishop Hall and attempted
to reach him. The ushers, however,
held the woman and removed her. Her
name could not be learned.

Should the Breckenridge Case Be Ex-

WAsHINGToN, May 6.--The question of
obscenity in the Breckinridge trial will
be passed upon by the postal author
tiles. The story of the trial as told in
book form was recently submitted to
Postmaster General Bissell by the pub
fishers, to determine whether the trans
mission of the books through the mails
would not be violation of the postal
regulations, and, in accordance with the
policy of the department, the unofficial
request was ignored, pending complaint
of the postmaster at Chicago. First AS
sistant Postmaster General Jones has
received from Postmaster Hesing a copy
of the book, accompanied by request
to pass upon the question of violating
the law. 1t is felt at the department
that passage upon the question would
involve the legality of the transmission
of newspaper reports of the trial through
the mails. Dsfnite action will be taken
within few days.

Tho Steamer La Champagne Aground on
the Long Island shore.
New York, May 6.-La Champagne,
which arrived this morning from Havre.
while proceeding up the bay during
thick weather, grounded on the Long
Island shore south OF Fort Hamilton,
close to the wooden dock recently built
by the United States government. The
vessel lies on the mud bottom, hard
and fast. within 200 feet of tine shore.
Health Officer Jenkins and Deputy San
born proceeded to the scene. boarded
the vessel. and after inspecting the pas
sengers, granted her a clean bill of
health and permission to transfer her
passengers. 1t will be impossible to
haul the ship off even at high water this
evening, as she went ashore at the top
of high water. In fact the tide had just
commenced to run out as the vessel
grounded. She will be lightered of her
cargo before being hauled off. All the
passengers were taken off by the tug
Rosa about noon. the cabin passengers
being landed at the French pier in this
city at 3 D. M, while the steerage pas
sengers were taken to Ellis island.
At p. m. Captain Laurent put the
La Champagne under full steam and re-
versed the engines. 1t was high tide.
but the vessel did not move foot and
the attempt to float her without assist
ance was abandoned. Shortly after 8
O'Clock the wrecking steamer William E.
Chapman went to the vessel with 8
lighter, and the crew OF the La Cham
pagne commenced to transfer the cargo
and further tighten the vessel. Another
attempt will be made to get her edoat
tomorrow, but it is very unlikely that il
will be successful. The vessel continue es
to settle in the mud, and it is more than
probable that she will have to be raised
end towed off. 1t ia not believed this
can be done in less than two days.

GROUND UNDER THE WHEELS.


by some Gilman Miners
Seven Gilman citizens, charged with
conspiracy to prevent the successful opera
ton of trains on the Seattle, Lake Shore &
Eastern railroad, were given hearing yes
terday before United States Commissioner
Emery. The examination continued all
day and Albert Kuhn and William Nc
Nally were discharged, while John N.
Davis. Bernard Mullarky, James III.
Twigg, Sam Hudson and George W.
Eaton we're held for trial before Judge
Hanford with bonds fixed at 800 each.
While seven were given a hearing only
five arrests were made. Kuhn, hearing
that a warrant was ont for him, came to
Seattle and gave himself up. and yesterday
Eaton also presented himself before Com
missioner Emery tor hearing.
Wesley Wilson, manager of the Seattle
Coal and Iron Company. for the state, tes-
titled at considerable length. and said that
on July 5 he saw all the defendants at the
depot at Gilman; that they abused and
inundated the non-unIon trainmen. cali
ing them "scabs" and other vile names.
He heard Mullarky say:
IF / had my way. these 'scabs' would
all be ground under the wheelsl"
In the evening OF the same day, Mr..
Wilson said Davis, Mullarky, Kuhn and
others made serious trofble.
DR.. f. W. Harrell. the eompany's sur
geon at Gilman, testified TO much the
same details as afr. Wilson, but bis evil
dence was stronger. If anything. against
the defendants. Davis. he said. conducted
himself in a particularly riotous manner.
Other witnesses for the state were
Frank Day. NJ. w. Frank, John McQuade.
George Bush, James Wilson and w. l..
Newtoa. and they all testified to the va
rious threatening acts of the defendants.
At the conclusion OF the states case Com
missioner Emery discharged Kuhn on the
ground that the evidence against hlm was
insufficient to warrant his being held for
trial.
The defendants denied that they were
rioters, and also denied that they were in
a conspiracy to prevent the operation Of
trains at Gilman. When the attorneys
representing the state and the government
had finished their argument the commits
sioner held the i've defendants for trial in
500 bonds cash.
