were killed outright and twenty-five or
thirty passengers were injured by the

The accident was caused by the breaking
of a f1ange on the combination car, which

CLAIMS OF THE PoPULIsTs.
General Panderroort Predicts a Doubling
of the Party's Former Vote.

General V0nderroort Predicts a Doubling
of the PaTty's Former Vote.
OMAHA, NEBR., Nov. 3.-General Paul
A. Vandervoort, commander-in-chief of
the National Legion, the National organi-
zation of the Populist clubs, stated to-day
to the correspondent of the United Press
that while the Populists did not expect to
carry any State, their vote this year would
be on the whole so per cent greater in the
States which hold elections next Tuesday
than last year.
Vandervoort expects the greatest gains
in Iowa, Kentucky and Ohio. In the lat
ter State, he says, Jacob Coxey, the Popu-
list candidate for Governor, will receive at
least 100000 votes. Last years Popu.ist
vote in Ohio was SO, 600. In Kentucky the
vote will gain from %, 600 last year to about
10000, while in Iowa the vote will be
nearly $4,000, as compared with the $4,000
last year. He also expects gain in Mas
sachusetts. In Mississippi, he says, fair
vote would give the State to Burkett, the
Populist candidate for Governor, by 5000
majority,

State University. There are five tickets in
the tield-Republican, Democratic, Sound
money" Democratic, Populist and Prohibi-
zionist.
Last year the Republicans carried the
State on all State officers except Governor,
by from 10000 to $1,000 plurality. By a
fusion of the Populists and silver Demo
Gratis, the fusion candidate for Governor
was elected by 5000 majority. There is no
fusion this year, and the indications are
that Chief Justice 7. l.. Norval, renomi-
mated by the Republicans, will be re-
elected.
The Populist nominee for Supreme Court
Judge is Samuel Maxwell, Republican
who, prior to 1894, was on the Supreme
bench for twenty years. The regular
Democratic nominee is Charles J. Phelps,
who represents the free-silver element,
while the "sound-money'' Democratic
nominee is T. ]. Mahoney. The Populists
claim Maxwell's election by 5000, while
the Republicans claim Norvaps election
by 10000 over Maxwell.
In Omaha there are three tickets in the
held for city, county and judicial Offices,
and the campaign has been unusually Bit
ter on account of the A. P. A issue. The
tickets are Republican, Populist and Citi-
zens, the latter nominated by the Citizens
Reform League. The fight on Mayor is a
renewal of the fire and police troubles of
last August, Commissioner Broatch of the
new Police Board being the Republican
candidate, and ex-Commissioner Brown of
the old board the Democratic candidate

GALES ON THE SEABOARD.
Many Vessels Thought to Have
Been Lost Off the Coast of
Newfoundland.
Crews of Two Wrecked Schooners
Brought to Halifax by the
Hyacinthe.

HALIFAX, n. S., Nov. "a storm of
frightful severity has been sweeping over
the North Atlantic during the last three
days and it is feared that it will prove the
most disastrous that has teen known in
many years. The storm itself was felt
very lightly on shore, only the edge of the
hurricane reaching shore, but at sea 1t
ragged with fury, according to the stories of
incoming steamers and fishermen.
AT this period the fishing season is at it's
height, and the fleets from Canadian and
New England ports number hundreds of
vessels, while those engaged in the fishing
industry may be counted in the thousands.
The usual equinoctial gales of the fall
were very light this year, and it was
thought that the heavy weather until the
winter season had fairly set in had passed
by.N This being the case it is very doubtful
if the majority of boats on the banks and
the great fishing waters near Newfound-
land were prepared to meet this storm.
The actual damage done from the hurri-
cane will not be known for weeks yet, as
vessels which rode the storm were un.
doubIedly driven far to the east.
The coasting guard along the shore is
active, as vessels have been wrecked at a
number or places, while wreckage and
overturned boats are being washed in con-
stantly.
The British man-of-war Hyacinthe,
which is cruising in Newfoundland waters
for the purpose of putting stop to the
depredations of pirates, came in to-day
with her mainmast gone and otherwise
considerably damaged She is an old-style
| vessel, but strong in her class, and if she
has suffered much damage it is feared that
the small fishing schooners must have
Jared badly. She brought in with her the
crews of two wrecked schooners, and also
several men whom she had picked up
| afioat in dories.
| The schooner Lelois, which also arrived
to-day, reports that she had two men
washed overheard on Friday, and that she
had passed large number of vessels in an
apparently helpless condition, being un-
able to render any assistance owing to her
own condition, and the awful sea which
was running.
| The loss of human life will undoubtedly
be very large, while the loss of shipping
will foot up into the thousands of dollars.

C0RPSES IN THE RUINS,
Four Charred Bodies Found in the
Debris of a Burned,
Building.
Workmen in a New York Sweatshop
Perish Miserably in
Fire.

NEW YORK, N. Y, Nov. 3.-When the
smoking ruins Of the sweatshops in Pelham
street, which were burned early this morn
ing, were searched it was discovered that
four lives had been lost in the binding
smoke and flames. Three buildings were
totally wrecked, and a conservative esti-
mate of the damage places it at 100000.
The names of the dead are as follows

an unknown person, sex undistinguishable
body recovered in basement of 7 Pelham
street at 8 A. NJ.
The position of the bodies taken from
the ruins and the horrible condition in
which they were found show how terrible
had been the struggle of the unfortunates
for lite and how hopeless ther fight before
the swift advance of the flames. The three
buildings took fire from floor to floor as
though their walls had been soaked with
kerosene and all avenues of escape were
quickly cut off.
No one knows how many were in the
darkened sweat shops when the fire started
and even yet beneath the mass of charred
debris there may be lying the bodies of
homeless and friendless tailors who had
found shelter for the night within the walls
of the doomed buildings.

READY TO ATTACK HAVANA
Cubans Await Only the Heavy
Ordnance Necessary for
the Assault.
General Maceo Notifies the Patriots
League That Freedom Is Near
at Hand.

BOSTON, MASS, Nov. 3.-The Cuban
Patriots League in the United States is in
state OF extraordinary activity, and since
the arrival IN New York of the delegates
from the fighting insurgents last week the
work of enlisting aid for the struggling
patriots has gone on apace.
Most OF the war news which has been re-
ceived thus far has been through Spanish
sources, or at least has been subjected 10
the scrutiny of the alert press censors in
Havana. letter was received to-day bv
the New England branch of the Patriots
League and coming from the head of the
| insurgent forces, General Antonio Maceo.
1t gives view of the struggle as the Gu
bans picture it. The letter states that
Cuba Libre'' is an event nearer at hand
than even the most ardent admirer of the
island republic could dream of. General
Maceo says:
"The whole question of the outcome of
the war now rests in the east, and it will
not be needful to make any attempts what
soever in the vicinity of Havana, except
ing what guerrilla warfare is being carried
on at present. The struggle will be fought
in the region surrounding Santiago de
Cuba, and if the Spaniards fall there they
are lost virtually, as with its fall will go
the whole of the island, excepting the
small district in the vicinity of Havana,
which itself is not able to withstand a
combined attack. The reports which have
been sent out by the Spaniards are false,
as in every pitched battle which has been
fought during the last month in the region
of Santiago de Cuba the patriots have
been successful, and the only thing
preventing them from making the direct
assault and capture of the city is the
lack of heavy ordnance, without which an
attack of that nature would be suicidal.
With the large sum of money which has
been collected, the necessary munitions of
war will soon be shipped from the United
States, when the struggle will be pushed
forward to an early completion. All
stories regarding the barbarities of the in
surgents are also false, as we have treated
the prisoners that have fallen into our
hands the same as any civilized army
would do"
General Maceo also stated that his men
are in the best of health, and that they are
SO flushed with victory that nothing will
be able to stop them. The letter closes
with an earnest exhortation for the re-
cognition of the insurgents by the United
States.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Nov. 3.-The week
just passed has been the most eventfuI, so
far as the political status of the State of
South Carolina is concerned, that the State
has known since the stirring days of 1876.
The constitutional convention has had a
great wrestle with the woman suffrage
problem and has settled it by putting in
the understanding provision for two
years and then leaving a pure educational
and property qualification.
Whether this settlement of the difficulty
Is going to stand the test of judicial in
quiry or not is question that was dis
oussed by the convention in the greatest
details and the answer can be found in the
future alone.
The convention has had a lively time
adopting the scheme. Senator Tillman
made great speech, and vigorous speeches
were delivered by Whipper, Wiggand and
Miller in defense of their race. The old
reconstruction period history was fully
accounted and some new light was thrown
on some matters. 1t was also seen early
in the proceedings that all amendments
presented were to be voted down, as they
were The fight for woman suffrage was
merely an incident to the weeks discus
sion-nothing more.
When the section comes up again for its
third reading an effort is to be made to re-
