The POpulistS May Insist Upon NOmi-

National Convention.

st. Louis, No. July 12.-The impress

here on the 22d inst, it will only be
after a hard fight Teller is still our

silver party man, and watch what [
tell you, we Will nominate him. We
figure it is best for the silver cause to
nominate, Teller. He can carry the sill
yer Republican States and can secure
more electoral votes than Bryan.
BRYAN will carry the silver Democratic
States. and between Teller and Bryan
I'VE count on securing enough electoral
votes to prevent McKinley's election.
If his can be done. the electoral votes
for silver will hold together and still

The following people were killed and
injured in the wreck:
The dead:
Charles Samuel, head crushed

THE WRECKED TRAIN
was the first section of picnic which
had been held at Schiller Park, about
twelve miles west of the city. The pic
mic was held under the auspices Of the
Ancient Order of United Workmen, and
fully three thousand people were in at
tendance. The first section consist
ed of thirteen cars, and left the park
shortly after o'clock for the return
trip TO the city,
All the cars were densely crowded,
and many people were standing on the
platforms of the cars. When the train
reached Altenheim cemetery, ten miles
ba oitt - 49, -,
front of the depot.
The picnic train was not running at
over ten miles an hour, and when it
neared Altenheim, the switchman at
the depot opened a switch to transfer
freight train and did not close it in
time TO prevent the picnic train from
dashing upon siding, where train of
empty coaches was standing waiting
for clear track in order that it might
pull up TO the picnic ground. for a load
of picnickers. The picnic train did
not strike the train on the siding with
great force, and in fact the engine of
the picnic train was not damaged be-
yond a broken pilot. The force of the
collision was sufficient, however, TO
jam the first coach UP against the bag
gage car in such way as to
PARTIALLY TELESCOPE IT.
The people who were killed were all
standing on the platform of the first
coach, and their lives were crushed out
by the rear end of the baggage car.
All Of the seriously injured were in the
first car, and none of the passengers
in the other cars were badly injured
although some Of them were bruised by
being thrown against seats, and to the
floor of the cars.
The officials of the railroad did not
notify the city police of the accident
until three hours after it had occurred,
and none of the dead or the injured
were brought to this city for over four
hours after the accident.
