An ingenious publican who keeps a hostelry near Meath, England, is said to have hit upon a plan to draw custom the other day. He addressed about fifty postal cards (bearing his sigma ture) to different persons, requesting their attendance at his house on cer- tain evening. Nearly every enc of them turned up, but the publican said he knew nothing about it, and could only explain the receipt of the postal cards by stating that some one had played a practical joke upon him. Nearly 150 "eXtra" drinks were sold that night.

SALISBURY'S DEFIANCE.

Lord Salisbury's bold statement that Great Britain is ready to maintain her nosition in the far East, and meet any competition of trade or war which may be opposed to her there, can only be in terpreted as a hint to Russia that that power must not go too far in the ad- vancement of her aims in that region. It is also a declaration to Europe and the world that Great Britain thorough ly understands the situation in Cuba, and is prepared to meet any emergency which may arise out of it with force if need be.
 This was practically everything that Salisbury said in his GuildhaH speech on Saturday evening, for his discussion of the Turkish situation was colorless and ambiguous, giving no clearer idea of the exact condition of things in Con- stantinopie and the intention of the powers, than was general before There was a hint in what he said of the close watch the powers are keeping over the porte, and an indirect asser- tion of their intention to insist upon obedience to the demand for reforms in Armenia, and a further hint that per sistence in disagreement will surely lead ito the end of the Turkish empire.
 The most significant thing he said about the Turkish situation was his ex- pression of alarm at the possible con- sequences of the fall of that empire. '@The danger is,' said he, that if the Ottoman empire falls it would not be merely a danger that would threaten its territory It would be the danger that the fire there lit would spread to other nations, involving all that is most powerful and civilized in Europe in dangerous COQu1cC.
 The meaning of this language would seem to be that the programme of the powers intended only sufficient con- pulsion to insure the obedience of the porte to their demands, while leaving 1t undisturbed in possession of it's do- mains and with the appearance of in- dependence The time has not come when the powers of Europe can agree over the division of it's empire, or when such division appears to be for the in- terests of all, and therefore the sick man of Europe must be bolstered up a while longer, although put on his good behavior. His danger is not in his own weakness or incorrigibility, for neither will be tolerated much longer by those who have taken the responsi- bIlity for the preservation of order in his domains and the protection of his Christian subjects. There is a sugges- ton of anxiety about the effect an at tempt to coerce the porte would have on the Mohammedan subjects of Great Britain in India, in Salisbury's assur- ance that interference in Turky would not be on religious grounds, and that in all things her majesty's govern ment would be absolutely impartial as between disciples of different religions.

TACOMA, Oct. "A bad accident oc-
Cured this morning on the line of the
Tacoma Traction Company near the city
limits, in which dozen persons were
more or less dangerously hurt, and two
will almost certainly die from the in
juries received. The accident was head
end collision of two electric cars, and was
due to heavy fog, which covered the
track.
Those most seriously hurt are: Henry
Bailey of Fern Hill, right leg broken and
left hip hurt, face and head badly bruised
John Fournier OF Fern Hill, both legs
broken, right leg will have to be ampu-
tated if he survive the shock, which is
doubtful; Eddie Lamagie of Fern Hill,
crushed between the cars and badly
bruised and shaken, but no bones broken.
The cars colliding were one bound for
Edison and one coming from Puyallup.
The collision occurred near the junction.
Both cars were the largest electric cars
made, and were filled with passengers.
They were running twenty miles an hour
and saw each other too late to stop.
Passengers on the cars pronounce the
accident the result OF careleSsness. Bailey
and John FOurnier were pinned between
the cars and were eXtricated with diff

were slightly hurt.

AN ACCIDENT AT OAKLAND.
OAKLAND, Oct. An electric car
crashed into a heavily-loaded wagon to-
night in the middle of the Eighth-street
bridge, and both vehicles were completely
wrecked. The driver of the wagon, Carl
Schnudenhaus, was severely cut on the
head, and his recovery is doubtful. The
accident was caused by the fog, which
was the densest seen in Oakland for years.
That the motOrman was not killed is a
miracle, as the place where he stood is
entirely demolished. After reversing the
current he stepped back into the car aud
saved his life. The driver of the wagon
was thrown several feet and picked up
unconscious and taken to the Receiving
Hospital. one of the horses was fright
fully injured, and had to be killed. The
other was badly muIilated.

Democratic National Couventiou

Thinks Silver Men VIII Control the
Democratic National Convention.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-Senator Black
burn of Kentucky talked freely to-day
about the political situation in kentucky,
and the fight he is leading for free silver.
He denounces the press Of the State,
claiming that the newspapers of the
largest cities were the hirelings of the
money power. aud they were pre-
venting the true situation from becoming
known.
some newspapers delight to keep re-
peating that the silver craze is dying out
in Kentucky, but tell you that the facts
are exactly the opposite to this" said Mr..
Black burn. Every day in kentucky
the silver sentiment is growing larger,
and assuring US greater victory. There
was never any doubt about my re-elec-
ton. That was evident from the very
first; the only doubt that existed was re-
garding the State ticket Ii you had
asked me month ago whether Mr.. Har-
din would have been elected Governor of
kentucky l would have told you that
did not know, that there was grave
doubt, and that it would be necessary to
wait to see developments before that
doubt could be dispelled. Now this is all
different"
Referring again to the newspapers, he
said: Il ask no quarter from them, ex-
pect none, and propose to give none. The
black flag Is up between US. and it can
stay there.'
Continuing, he said: There is one
thing you can be assured of, and that is
that Secretary Carlisle will not again go
on the stump in Kentucky during the
campaign. Mr.. Carlisle fully under
stands just why he will not attempt to do

on IT,"
According to Mr.. Black burn, silver is
the only issue now before the country,
and will be the only issue next year.
This is the only thing to be considered" ;"
he asserted. "For some years, at least,
the tariff cannot be revived, and look
where we may, we can find but one issue
in the national campaign. That will be
hight between the money and the people.
They tell US that We cannot hope for the
support OF the New York delegates for
any candidate except one in favor of the
single standard, but l say we will let
them have New York. What of that?
There are eight States on the Pacific Coast
that will not consider for one moment the
nomination of any man who is not out
spoken for the free coinage OF silver.
The South is normally in favor of free
silver, and the only thing that keeps il
from being avowedly so by unanimous
demand is the influence OF Federal pat
ronage. But in 1896 there will be no fear
OF Federal patronage there, and the South
will be where il always has benin
favor of the free coinage of silver. The
South and the eight Pacific Coast States
viii give US Just tbirty-eight less than a
majority of the delegates TO the national
convention in favor of free coinage of
silver. We have Illinois, Ohio, Indiana,
Iowa and other Western States to look to
for these thirty-eight delegates We will
get them, you may be sure. and a free
silver candidate will receive the Demo-
cratic nomination for the Presidency"

NORTHERN PACIFIC ROAD.

Receivers Restrained From Removing
Money From Jurfsd fiction of Court.
NEW YORK, Oct 4.-Judge Lacombe.
in the United States Circuit Court, to-
day granted an order restraining Thomas
i. Oakes, Henry c. Payne and Henry c.
Rouse as receivers of the Northern Pa
citic Railroad Company, or any of it's
employees or agents in this circuit, from
removing from the jurisdiction of this
court any of the moneys, securities or
other property now in the possession of
said receivers within the Jurisdiction OF
this court, and orders that in the further
administration of their receivership the
said receivers shall take the directions of
this court.
The order was granted on the applica-
tion and affidavit of George w. Beard.
Mr. Beard in his affidavit deposes that
he is Secretary for the Northern Pacific
Railway Company. the defendant in the
above case; that the present receivers of
the road were appointed by the Circuit
Court of the Southern District OF New
York on August 10, 1898, and that there IS
in the jurisdiction of this court and in
the possession of the receivers large
amounts OF money, corporate stocks,
bonds, books, papers and other property
of the company; that the receivers have
Kept money OF the receivership on de-
posit in several banks and trust COM
panies in this city, and that for several
years the principal officers of the COM
pany have been in New York and most
OF its directors and executive officers re-
side there; that there are more directors
Of the Northern Pacific Railway Com
pany, in amount, within this circuit than
any other circuit through which the
road runs; that the amount due
to the creditors of the company
in ;be circuit amounts to many millions
OF dollars; that the receivers are seeking
to resign in this circuit, and the question
pending in this court is whether their
designations should be accepted, or
whether they shall be removed from
office; that serious difference exists be-
tween the Circuit Courts having jurisdic-
tion of the eastern end OF the road and
those having jurisdiction OF the western
end, and il would be difficult question
for 0akes, Payne ard Rouse to deter
mine what their rights would be in send
ing funds from New York to the West.
in view of the fact that the receivers APP
pointed at the east end and those ap-
pointed at the west end of the road have
interests in the money now in New York
City for the reason that the same are the

NOTHING IN THE RUMoR.

No Likelihood of Another Strike on
the Southern Pacific system.
OAKLAND, Oct. A ruinor has been
in circulation for some days past that the
American Railway Union was about to
order another strike. 1t was also stated
that the proposed uprising would be sue
cessful, because it would combine the en-
gineers and conductors OF the Southern
Pacific Road, who, it was alleged, had
joined the American Railway Union
since the last strike, owing To the fact that
the railroad had either reduced their
wages or compelled them to work longer
hours for the old figures.
superintendent Wilder of the Southern
Pacific was interviewed on the subject
this morning. He said he had not heard
of the proposed strike, and could not un-
derstand what purpose the American
Railway Union could have in declaring
one. The employees of the company, he
said. were satisfied with their wages, and
would be foolish TO do anything that
would deprive them OF their means OF
support. He had not heard, he said, that
engineers and conductors had Joined the
American Railway Union. II they had
he was sorry for 1t, because he did not
think they ought 10 join that or any other
society that displayed such bad judg-
lnent. He did not believe, be said, that
any strike was contemplated, and that
there was any prospect OF union be-
tween the engineers, conductors and
other railway employees.

ford Division, Brothernoo ood OF Locomo-
tive Engineers. was also seen, and said
that SO far as a strike being contemplated.

SEATTLE tWash.l, Oct. 4.-The Oregon

Mr.. Smith, who resides in Seattle, has
Tor several years been General Manager
for the company. The receiver gave
bonds in the sum of 500, 900. The ap-
plication for the receivership was based
upon the Oregon Improvement Com

such move, as the company, under new
