DEATH TO FOUR.
Disastrous Wreck Caused by Sudden
WashOuts Near st. Cloud.


WashOuts Near ct. Cloud.
ST. CLOUD, Mimi, July 6.--The storm
which swept over this part of the state
was the worst in the history of railroad
ing hereabouts. Traffic was completely
suspended. The storm came up so sud-
denly that many trains ran into wash-
outs without the least intimation Of
danger. A bad wreck occurred at st.
Joseph, eight miles west of here, where
an extra freight ran into washout and
the engine and 20 cars went into ditch.
Charles Washburn of st. Cloud was in
stantly killed and Engineer Piper was
injured. Washburn was riding in a
box car with ii other men who were re-
turning from Fergus Falls, and SO far
only eight have been accounted for. 1t
is feared the other three are also killed.

known, is as follows: Toliff Lavan,
Samuel Morrow, Mrs. Samuel Morrow,
Winnie Morrow and Cawald MCGOWAN.

edly more lives are lost. William Nor
ris and wife are reported to have been
killed. Railroad traffic is paralyzed
because of the heavy fall of rain. Hec-
tor, Mimi, is under water about foot
and damage to the amount of $4,000
has been done there. Crops have been
damaged to an irrepara BILE extent and a
large amount of live stock was killed.
Reports of washouts, floods and cy-
clones are being received almost hourly.
Every railroad in the state has had
some damage to the tracks and rolling
stock. The storm was so general it is

sidering crops and other damage, 1T Will
probably exceed 81, 100000.

CLEVELAND, July S.-The railroads

every manufacturing establishment IN

cation, and with some of them the stu
alton is so serious that the closing Of the

STRIKERS MAY WIN
CONTEST OF COAL MINERS FA-
VORABLE TO THE DiGGERS.
Score Decided Advantage by Getting Out
Most of the Men in the Pittsburg
Observation-Disclosures Confis-
eating Coal.

PITTsBURG, July 8.-Forty-eight hours
after the Inauguration of the great coal
strike comparison of statements from
both sides engaged in the contest show
favorable results for the diggers. Dis
counting the miners officials announce
ments by the operators opinions there
seems no question that the workmen
have scored decided advantage in this
district, and it is believed that as the
Pittsburg district goes, so goes the coun-
try. Conservative estimates place the
number of miners now striking in this
district at sfrom $1,000 to 10000 men,
an increase of about 5000 for the day.
This leaves but from 5000 to 5000 men
still working.
The Key to the Situation.
The key to the entire situation, from
present appearances, lies in the success
or defeat of the strikers in securing the
cooperation of the men now working
for the New York and Cleveland Gas
Coal company. Without these men the
strike can hardly succeed, because they
will be able in a measure to supply the
demand long enough to tide over the
present embarrassment. Patrick Dolan,
president of the Pittsburg district min
ers, is confident that before the present
week closes he will have succeeded in
getting all of these men to join the ranks
of the strikers, and when this result is
effected the battle will be practically
won.
Operators Are Confident.
The operators are just as confident of
success as the miners are and have
issued statement claiming large
accession of men in different parts Of
the district and heavier shipping list
than usual. Notwithstanding the ad-
vantages claimed for the operators, a
concensus of opinion appears to be in
favor of the miners, inasmuch as the
operators can only hope for temporary
relief with their present facilities. and
the miners officials seem to be in fair
way to effectually cripple even these by
constantly adding to their number from
the ranks of those remaining at work.

franchises of the Atlantic and Pacific rail-
road on the purchasers under the mort
gage foreclosure. Powers of Vermont and
Barrett OF Massachusetts, exchanged
broadsides. The conference report was
called up Immediately after the reading OF
the journal. Powers explained the nature
of the agreement reached by the con-
ferees. One OF the provisions of the report
which was combatted was that providing
for an issue Of stock by the new company
to the amount OF the funded debt unpaid
at the time of foreclosure. and limiting
il TO Soo.0000 600. With regard TO the house
amendment requiring that as a condition
precedent TO reorganization the purchasers
should relinduish in writing all claims TO
lands granted to the Atlantic & Pacific
railroad and unearned July 6. 1895. which
the conferees abandoned, Powers said
that the question as 10 the forfeiture of
land grants was now before the supreme
court. If the court declared they were not
forfeited he argued that the mortgages
were entitled TO these lands II they were
forfeited no legislation was needed on the
subject.
Barrett was very much aroused by
Powers ridicule, and the moment the
Vermont member took his seat he was
on his feet. After Indignantly denying
that he was in any way interested as 10
the position of the pending measure, he
said:
Il am a young man. came here with
no reputation beyond service IN the Leg
islature of my state, but the gentleman
from Vermont came here after a long

the Central Railroad of Vermont. who
were robbed by the DEGREES of that court
and then let the gentleman from Vermont

Powers, the subject of the attack, sat
silent throughout the remarks of the Mas
sachusetts member and made no response.
The house then by vote OF II to las re-
Jected the report of the conference and d.
rected the house conferees TO insist on the
house amendments.
The remainder OF the day was spent In
the discussion OF the agricultural pill. At

There was never a remedy so eminently

could lie in bed Only in misery, and with
such severe pain In my back, and so weak
that could hardly talk.
After l had a had night I would send
for the doctor. and he would leave me a
small box of powders and one or two
other medicines, and it would cost me 81
