rested In London. in company with John
Curtin Kent and Henry Hammond Wilson
early in 1883. and on June ia Of that year
they were found guilty of treasOn-felony
and sentenced to life Imprisonment. Kent
was released from prison one year ago, and
is now in the United States. Or. Gallagher
was resident Of Green Point, L. l.,
where he is said to have enjoyed a
large practice. In order to make their pun
ishment greater, special act was passed,
under which the men could be tried for
treason-felony. They we're charged with
the manufacture of dynamite bombs, or
having bombs in their possession. John
Daily was arrested April 49, 1884, at Birken-
head with two bombs in his possession.

ENGLISH POSITION TOWARD CRETE
VIII Not Join the Powers in Assist
inr Turkey

ing
LONDON, Aug. 13.-George N Curzon
Parliamentary secretary of the foreign Office
made Il statement to the House regarding
affairs in the island of Crete. There had
been q proposal of the powers, he said to
assist Turkey in effecting a blockade of
Crete but England had thought it advisable
to look q little further before joining in
such a movement 1t WAS doubtful thing
10 interfere between sovereign and subjects
and especially to suppress to some extent
excusable rebellion. The government he
said, had declined to give the sultan the
assistance OF q British feet without quid
pro quo in the shape of a security or
guaranty to Crete. Lord Salisbury, he said
was willing to consider joining in a guar
Rnty with the other powers.
Mr.. CurzOn did not believe that any of the
parties concerned favored the annexation of
Crete TO Greece. British men-of-war had
rendered almost invaluable assistance in
preventing an outbreak of disturbances
Here there was an outbreak among the
irish men bers CT cIies of shame and Tim tn 7
Healy exclaimed: Why don't you take the
side of the Christians"
Mr.. Curzon said that the government had
tried To avoid taking sides. Something
more permanent than had yet been sug-
gested was necessary, he said for real
settlement.
Sir Henry Fowler, liberal member for
East Wolverhampton said that the govern
ment was pursuing a Turkish policy.
Mr. Arthur Balfour, the government leader,
in reply denied Sir Henry Fowler's state
ment. The government he said had been
unsparng in its efforts to secure good gov
ernment for Crete. There was danger of
war if any power rushed In to settle the
problem IN such rough and ready manner.
After repeating MIR. Curzon's statements,
Mr.. Balfour concluded by saying that the
government was conscious OF the re-
sponsibiltty for avoiding what might prove c
catastrophe incomparably greater than the
horrors already heard of.

Had Wreck Due to CIOudburst-En.
gincer and Fireman Killed.


OTIS, Ind, Aug. ia bad wreck oc-
Cured on the Lake Shore road at o'clock
this morning, one-half mile east of this
point. The eastbOund special mail train
from Chicago, consisting of an engine, two
postal cars, baggage car. one day coach and
q Wagner sleeper, ran into washout sew
euty feet long and thirty feet deep. The
entire train, with the exception of the day
coach and the sleeper plunged into the big
hole and Engineer James Griffin and Fire
man Michael Roach were almost instantly
killed. The day cuach partially tOppled
over into the abyss but one end remained
on the track being held by the coupling 10
the sleeper, which did not leave the track.
The passengers in the day coach escaped by
simply going through the sleeper and none of
them received injuries The mail clerks
and tratpmen also escaped injury.
A cloudburst and immense food Of water
caused the washout and scooped out the
great hole in the earth at q cuivert directly
beneath the tracks, Engineer Griffin evi-
IDENTIFY had no warning Of the washout what
ever, as he inquired few moments before
he died what caused the wreck. Both Of
the unfortunate engineers legs were com
pletely severed from his body.
All Lake Shore trains are being sent via
Michigan City and ChestertOn, and thence
over the Michigan Central tracks. SO that
the delay to traffic viii not be great.
The MOnOn road has an eighty-fout wash
out mile south OF this place. and a mill
dam on the north side of the road has just
burst, and il looks as II the MunOn bridge
