SHOOTING BEE DOWN SOUTH.
Two Rival Gangs Indulge in Pistol Exer'
else With Fatal Results.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 14.-Informa-
ton has reached here of shooting af-
fair at Crudan, station eight miles
south of Collinsville, on the Alabama,
Great Southern railroad.
B. F. Killian is foreman of the sec
tion gang on the track from Crudap
to Keener, and he and his men were
working on the north end of his sec
ton. They We're approached by man
named Galloway and his two sons. Gal
loway ordered Killan to leave the
neighborhood at once. Killan refused
to do so. Galloway and his two sons
thereupon opened fire on Killian with
Winchesters. Several shots were fired
and one bullet went through Killian's
right shoulder. He was not danger
ously hurt. Killian returned the fire
and instantly killed one of the boys,
and fatally shot the other.
The cause of the tragedy is not
known, but it is said there was a pre-
vious quarrel between Killian and old
man Galloway. AS far as known no
arrests were made.

Fitzsi,nmons Interviewed.

Chicago, Feb. 14-George Siler, the
referee in the coming -Fitzsim-
mons fight, left for Carson this evening"
The Tribune this morning printed the
following over Siler's signature:
There is not an insincere atom in
Fitzsimmons' physical or mental make
up. He looked big and strong to me.
His eye was bright and piercing, his
step elastic and springy and everything
denoted that Corbett's prospective op-
ponent had been conditioning himself,
for the ordeal which will come with
four and a half weeks waiting.
"I heard" said Fitzsimmons, "that
Corbett wants you to prepare your in
struction for US two weeks in advance
of the fight, so as to make US both ia
miliar with your Interpretation of the
rules,
THAT is So" L answered.
"Well, how does he want to fight
break clean or hit with one hand dis
engaged?"
"He thinks that you ought to hit
when you can"
THAT is, on break away?"
Yes, on break aways-just SO one
hand is free
Anything else?" asked Fitzsimmons.
"He thinks you ought to fight your
selves loose
Yes. Anything else?"
NO Further than that Queensberry
rules govern the battle"
THAT seems fair, don't it?'
'T nodded assent
"Well,'' concluded Fitzsimmons, "any-
thing fair for one is fair for BOTH I
am agreeable to anything along these
lines"
Having seen Corbett and the superb
shape the Californian is in 1 was forced
to the conclusion that the meeting of
the two men would indeed be the fight
of the country" says Siler.

tive universe; that sin is in a process
of elimination. l believe in the Holy
Ghost of redemption. L believe in per-
sonal relation to character"
Most impressively did DR., Gordon
close by quoting the following lines
from Tennsyson:
GLORY of warrior, glory Of orator, glory
of song,
Paid with a voice flying by to be lost
on an endless sea-
Glory of virtue, to fight, to struggle, to
right the wrong
Nay, but she aim'd not at glory, no
lover of glory she:
Give her the glory Of going on, and still
to be.
The wages of sin is death; if the wages
of virtue be dust,
Would she have the heart to endure
for the life of the worm and the fly?
She desires no isles of the blest, no
quiet seats of the just,
To rest in a golden grove, or to bask
in a summer sky;
Give her the wages of going on, and
not to die"

PEACE TREATY BREEDS DlSCORD.
No Hope of Its Being Approved by the
Senators This Session.

Washington, Feb. 14.-When the SEN
ate adjourned yesterday after another
afternoon of useless discussion of the
general arbitration treaty, the impress
sion held by many senators was that
Mr.. Sherman had become convinced
that there was little, if any chance of
getting any action during this session
of the senate. The belief appears to
be that he will make one or two more
| efforts to press a vote after devoting
an afternoon to discussion, and that
then without formally announcing his
determination he will permit the treaty
to remain on the calendar without seek
ing to press it for consideration.
The friends of the treaty believe it
would be ratified if a vote could be
| had. but this claim is denied by others
who, however, appear to be. better sat
isfied to have action postponed than to
| permit the vote to be taken now. 1t
| is evident that determined effort is
being made by few senators to pre-
vent ratification. For this reason it is
thought the treaty will go over until
after the 4th of March. when there will
| be abundant time for the senate to
discuss it thoroughly while considering
the nominations the new president may
send in.

Details of Saturdays Terrible Disaster at
Talcville, New York.

Gouverneur, N. Y, Feb 14.-The one
topic for miles around to-day has been
the mine accident, which occurred at
Talcville yesterday. Additional de-
tails We're received to-day. 1t appears
that there We're eight men in that sec
tion of the mine, 160 feet under ground.
In twenty minutes work for the week
would have been ended. A blast had
been fired and the men were engaged
in getting off the loose pieces. A pill
lar of tale, thirty feet square, had been
left standing on a support. Six of the
men were working around this.
Without warning the huge mass, com
prising about 900 tons of rock, slipped
from it's position and collapsed, bury
ing the Workmen. Five Of the men
were jammed up against the wall, ter
ribly crushe1 and killed William Daw-
ley was thrown up in some manner
and but three pieces of the rock lay on
him. He lived until 80 this afternoon
Two other men We're in the mine. One
was beyond the pillar and was out of
danger. The second, named Horn, was
working close to the pillar, but up neal
the roof. When the crash came the
rocks fell around him, striking his
drill, but he was not injured. He
crawled up the track of the skip to the
end of the ladder and went to the sur
face to give the alarm. A searching
party was at once put to work. The
first body found was that of Fred De
coy. Next the battered remains of Mil
dred Lochlin were found.
All this time groans were heard is
suing from the heap of debris and the
workmen finally located William Daw-
ley. After seven hours labor the mar
was uncovered, he being conscious
all the while. 1t was found his spine
was broken, one of his legs crushed
and there were more injuries of an in
ternal nature. He was conscious W
to the time of his death. The body Of
Charles Larsck was found at 1 O'Clock
this morning.
The body of Al Tetherton was found
at II o'clock this morning. A few min
utes later the remains of John Mat
thews We're brought to the surface. The
remains were in a terrible condition
Both of Tetherton's legs were missing.

ARREsrnF CONSUL GENEnAAIASIG1
He is Remanded by New York Magis'
trate in the sum of $40 1000.

New York, Feb. 14.-Joseph Iasigi,
consul general for Turkey at Boston,
who was arrested last night as an en-
bezzler from Peter Charles Derieux,
was arraigned in the Center street
court to-day. Iasigi was represented
by Lawyer James Richards of the firm
of Coudert Brothers. He refused to
talk about his arrest and referred all
questioners to the lawyer. Mr.. Rich
ards said:
MY client came to New York to get
the very securities that he is charged
with having embezZled. He was at our
office yesterday and intended to return
to Boston last night or this morning.
He had no idea of sailing for Europe as
the complainant in this case seemed to
fear | am very confident he will soon
prove that he is entirely blameless.'
! Police Inspector ]. J. Collins of Bos-
ton was in court, having arrived in the
early morning. He told Magistrate
Cornell that DerieuX was not in this
city as yet and said that he had tele-
phoned for him to come to New York
and appear as a complainant to-mor-
row.
When Iasigi was arraigned Lawyer
Richards moved that Iasigi be dis
charged from custody on the ground
that the complainant was not in court
to prosecute the charge. Magistrate
Cornell denied the motion. Lawyer
Richards spent ten minutes searching
the code of criminal procedure and then
J
of his client on the ground that he be-
ing a foreign consul was exempt from
arrest.
II have nothing to do with that said
| Magistrate Cornell "as / am only a
committing magistrate. If this arrest
was made Illegally you have your rem
edy in higher court on habeas corpus
| procedure. All that I have to deal with
is that the prisoner is arraigned before
me and to find whether there is enough
evidence of guilt to warrant my holding
him fors trial. I accordingly deny your
motion"
Lawyer Richards again searched the
code for some time and then made a
third motion for the discharge of his
client on the ground that the affidavit
on WHICH ne was arrested was maze
through information and belief"
Magistrate Cornell said this was al
ways the case when a man was arrested
as a fugitive from justice.
Then Lawyer Richards asked that
bail be made as light as possible
Magistrate Cornell said the charge was
so serious that heavy bail would have
to be fixed and he held Iasigi in $4,000
for examination tomorrow afternoon
at 2 o'clock
The detectives asked that Iasigi be
sent to police headquarters and as
Iasigi did not object, evidently think
ing that he would be more comfortable
there than at the Tombs, the magis-
trate sent him to headquarters, but not
as an ordinary remand" as the bal
was allowed to stand.
Everybody connected with the case
refused to talk, saying that they pre-
ferred to wait until tomorrow, wher
Mr.. Derieux would be present.
