Sued the Big Four.

Last fall Mrs. Mary r. Half, Of
this city, was on her way to the
bedside Of her dying husband in
Peru, New York, and the train on
the Big Four in which she was
travelling collided with freight
train at Springfield, Ohio, causing
a delay Of four hours. In addition
to being bruised and shaken up
by the accident, she was very
anxious to learn Of her husbands
condition and desired to to tele-
graph for. that purpose. but the
conductor Of the train refused to
send dispatch for her, saying the
railroad was using all its lines for
its own purposes. In consequence
Mrs. Haff says she suffered great
pain of body and mind, and has
brought suit against the road for
two thousand dollars damages,
through her attorney, James An
drew Scott. The railroad has
offered to compromise on five hun.
dred but the offer was rejected.

ON TO WASHINGTON.
Knights of Pythias Depart for the
Biennial Session of Supreme Lodge.

Nearly every railroad in the United
States and the Canadas has for its patrons
today members of the order of Knights of
Pythias, who are on their way to WASH
ington, ID. c., where the biennial session
of the Supreme Lodge will be held Mon
day.
Two years ago it was voted to hold the
session in Washington and at that time 1t
was thought that Rhode Island would
send at least 500 members, but the num-
Der fell far short of the expectation,
although the committee that has had
charge OF the affair has done all that could
be done to make it success.
The Rhode Island delegation consists of
about one hundred and twenty-five sir
knights from Rhode Island, Sterling,
What Cheer, Union, Northern, Harmony,
Perseverance, Garfield and Davis divisions,
who will meet at the armory
of Sterling Division at 8 o'clock
this evening and march to the
Union station where the members OF the
ordes from Concord, Manchester, Laconia
and other places in New Hampshire will
be received ana escorted to the armory of
Sterling Division where substantial sup
per viii be served. + he iaeies who accom-
pany the New Hampshire sir knights will
be taken in charge by the committee on
transportation and escorted to the boat
where supper will be served. After sup
per at the armory the line will again be
formed and short parade made and the
boys will proceed on their way
to the handsome steamer Connecticut,
where they will be received and cared for
by Captain Williamson and his officers.
The Rhode Island delegation is in charge
OF Colonel j. ID. Carpenter, who is accom-
panied by the following members of his
staff: Lieutenant Colonel Nelson s.
Davis, Major j. b. Wentworth, Major
III. O. True, Adjutant Walter
X. Griffith, Quartermaster John l..
Cary, Commlssary A. ID. Roberts,
Adjutant, 1st battalion, J. Sanford Davis;
Commissary Sergeant William M. Green;
Quartermaster Sergeant, I'd battalion,
Charles Il. Lewis; Sergeant Major, 20 bat
talon, Sidney Besser; Sergeant
Major, 1st regiment, Charles A.
The delegation numbers about 125. Many
OF the Sir Knights are accompanied
by their wives. The New Hamp-
shire delegation was in charge OF
the general passenger agent, Ira ID.
Nichols OF the Stonington line.
The less fortunate members who are
obliged to remain within the bounds OF
Rhode Island during the absence of the
sir knights have made arrangements to
give them hearty send off and those who
reside along the shores of the
Narragansett will salute the Con-
nscticut and its patrons with colored
fires, sky rockets, cannons, etc. The
Union Cornet Band OF Central Falls far
nished the music for the street demon
stration and will accompany the delega-
ticn TO Washington. The committee who
have charge OF the affair is Major J.. Brent

A FALL OF COAL
Released Gas, Which Became Ignited
and Caused a Serious Accident.



ASHLAND, Pa, Aug. 25.-Two men were
killed and II injured by an explosion
of gas In the Gilberton colliery, near this
city, yesterday afternoon. The explosion
was primarily caused by fall of coal,
which became dislodged by the mining op-
crations. This released an immense vol
ume of gas, and at the same time forced it
along the gangways to distance of more
than 1000 yards, sitting and choking the
miners as 1t swept along.
Finally 1t reached gang Of miners
who were working with naked lamps, and
instantly ignitcd. An explosion, which
shook the earth and was heard by the
people in their homes above, followed.
Flames and smoke burst from the mouth
of the pit, and inside and outside there
were scenes of frantic terror. The i'm
prisoned and burning miners forgot their
pain in an agony of terror, and their wives
and children rushed to the scene, Shrek
ing with fear and despair.
Rescuing parties We're quickly organized,
and the men were brought TO the surface
as rapidly as possible A temporary hos
pital was erected and medical attendance
procured, the injured being removed
either to their homes or to permanent hos
pitfalls as soon as their sufferings were
somewhat alleviated.

United States wrongfuIly Collected Duties
ON Colombian Products.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25. - A secret has
leaked out from diplomatic circles to the
effect that our government has become
sadly entangled with one OF the Central
American republics as a result of the oper-
alton of the reciprocity treaties, and will
have bill to pay, beside which the Behr-
ing sea claims will appear trivial in
amount.
The country in question is the United
States of Colombia, one of the Central
American republics, which steadily refuses
all efforts of the state department to in
duce them to become party TO one of the
reciprocity treaties. Moreover when her
sister republics and Spain (as to Cuba and
Porto Rico) began to ship their products
free to the United States under the terms
OF their new treaties, ColorGbi claimed
the same exemption for her staples-hldes,
coffee, sugar and mo)asses.
Many letters have been exchanged on
the subject, and at last the United States
has been Obliged to admit the strength
and correctness of the Colombian posi-
tion. This being done, 1t follows that the
government must refund to importers the
amounts they have paid in duties on Co
lombian products which would have been
free. just what the total will amount to
no one can tell at present, but steps arc
being taken TO ascertain the amount from

EASTERN LEAGUE.
The Buffalo CrippIes Made the Grays
Hustle.

The left field fence was very friendly TO
Buffalo yesterday and the ball went over
Il couple of times when runners were on
bases else the visitors would have been
beaten out OF sight. Buffalo was handi-
capped by having several players disabled
in previous games. Those who were on the
field, however, played great ball in
streaks and had show to win until the
last man was out. They are determined
players and go for everything that will
contribute to victory. Their coaching
and efforts TO rattle the opposition are
more than once yesterday.
The Bisons can hit the ball hard and
often and their batting strength is what
makes them formidable. Providence was
out to win that game and the crowds in
the grand stand and bIeachers felt that it
was a struggle for blood. The Grays
started right in at a winning clip
and before the other chaps knew
where they were at our side
had eight runs. This made it easy and
there was let up. Then Buffalo got gay
with Sullivan, much to James disgust,
and pounded out five runs. Providence
scored four, putting the game safe again,
but in the last two innings the visitors
made the rootcrs anxious.
1t was red-hot play. The Grays went
for everything; batted freely and ran
bases in the most daring fashion. Murray
tickled the crowd by dashing home when
the ball was only few feet from the
plate.
Cooney was hit by pitched ball and
hurt enough to be out OF the game. Nc
Auley's thumb was split by foul tip in
the eighth inning. Leewe tried TO block
Sullivan at second base and got stepped
On and he couldn'r play any more.

SAN Francisco, Aug 25.-Gencral An
tonic Ezeta and fellow refugees from San
Salvador were prisoners before Judge

yesterday.
The court proceedings were opened by
she United States assistant district attor-
ney, who stated that the warrants had
been issued In conformity with mandate

The assistant district attorney stated
that he appeared in the case at the request
OF the attorney general of the United

States government had no further interest
In the proceeding than those to see that
they are regular and proper. When, after
the process la the case had been read, he
stated that the United States government
left the further prosecution in the case to
the private attorney in the employ Of the

AT this juncture the prisoners counsel
interposed and demanded an immediate

maintained that the prisoners were politi-
cal refugees and were unlawfully held.
Objection was therefore made to con-
tinuance.
