AN AXLE BROKE,
And Passenger Train Was Precipitated
Into the Creek

The smoking car and coach attached 10 the
west bound passenger train on the Parsons
division OF the Memphis road jumped the
track Saturday evening, ditching the Two cars
and injuring 20 people, several OF whom are
reported seriously hurt. The other cars went
into the creek. The wreck occurred at Light.
ming Creek, about n mile west OF Monmouth,
md was caused by the breaking OF an axle on
the rear coach. The breakdown occurred al
"A point 400 feet from the bridge The car
broke loose from the train after being drng.
ged 200 feet aud rolled over into the ditch
which was filled with backwater from the
creek.
The accident caused the other cars to pitch
and rock so badly that when the bridge was
reached the baggage car struck the side tim
bers OF the bridge and caused the whole
structure to give way, thus precipitating
nll the other cars into the stream below,
which is swollen from recent rains. The
front coach followed the baggage car into the
stream and rested partly upon the baggage
car, which kept II from sinking into the
water. The smoking car turned completely
over and Is now lying bottom up in the creek.
The passengers who had been but slightly
hurt broke In the windows and pulled the
women and wounded men ont. The wound
ed were taken to Fort Scott on n special train
sent to the scene OF the wreck. Those who
were able TO be moved have been sent to
their homes.

The tragedy occurred near n largo saw mill

hatchee river. A freight car had been fitted
up with bunks and within this about thirty
negroes slept. The car, In which the negroes
were sleeping was surrounded by masked men
who Immediately opened fire with winchest-
ers The shots and the screams OF the ne
groes brought Graves, Beatty and a number
OF white employees who live near the scene
and then the masked men fled.
Examination showed that Henry johnson
and Sam Evans, negroes, had been killed ,and
that dozen had been wounded, some OF
whom will die. The attack has so terrorized
the negroes that they have refused to work
for Graves * Beatty longer. 1t is thought
that the attack was instigated by white men
who had been discharged by the owners OF

SLAVES IN CALIFORNIA.
Big Conspiracy to Land Chinese as Actors
for the Atlanta Exposition.

Big Conspiracy to Land Chinese as Actors
for the Atlanta Exposition.
Collector Wise, OF San Francisco, has dis
covered an ingenious fraud by which shrewd
San Francisco speculators in the Chinese
tralllc are seeking to evade the Geary law
and introduce about 300 Chinese into th
United States under the pretext that they are
skilled actors, and that they are coming to
America to give the visitors at the Atlanta
exposition an opportunity TO see some of the
renowned male and female histrionists of
Hong Kong. band Of more than 200 men
and "a women have already been landed at
Victoria and they are headed by Little Pete
and the notorious Leong Nam, have ingeni-
ously lodged San Francisco and applied for
their admission into the United States at Og-
densburg, n. y. If the applicants should get
temporary entrance on the ground that
they are legitimate actors, inspectors will be
sent to Atlanta to see how they deport them
selves and TO watch their movements.
The.eollector has evidence, however, that
the men are seeking permanent home as la
borers, and that they know nothing about
acting. There Is also evidence in the hands
OF tho collectors that the women were pur-
chased in Hong Kong at 5000 each and that
the projectors OF the scheme have contracts
by which they are to be sold at Atlanta for
$500 each. II they can be safely landed
the TWO or three men who engineered the
plan here will earn about $4,000. The wo-
men would, OF course, remain the slaves of
their purchasers for a long period OF years,
II not for their entire lives, the design being
to quietly ship them to the lower quarters OF
Chinatown at the conclusion OF the exposi-
tion.
The projectors OF the plan got their clew
from the federal law relating to the World 3
fair at Chicago. Under a special act Chinese
and other foreigners were allowed to land for
the purpose OF giving exhibitions and acting.
A similar provision exists in the case of the
Atlanta exposition.
