NEWSY COMBINATIONS.


A fierce hurricane swept the harbor
OF Yokohama, Japan, wrecking the
Norwegian bark Alette. Ten of her
crew were drowned.
A most serious accident occurred at
the Champion Reefs mine, near Mad
ras, India, aud 40 persons are known
to have been killed.
The sensational story that Japan
was trying to secure control of the
Nicaragua canal is pronounced n
canard without foundation.
Daniel Mundell, Charles Lewis and
Jackson Bushong were fatally, and AZ
others seriously burned by an explo-
sion of natural gas at a we'll which was
being drilled near Newcastle, Ind.
While local freight train on the
Iron Mountain railroad was running
20 miles an hour, near Van Bur, n,
Ark, the forward trucks of a car near
the engine broke, completely wreck
ing the whole train, killing seven men
and injuring six others.
Ex-Queen Liliuokaini, of Hawaii,
has started for her native land to par
ticipate in an anti-anneXation demon
stration which is being planned to oc-
cur when u. 5. Senators Morgan and
Quay visit Honolulu to investigate the
condition of affairs.
Gen. James Longstreet, aged 70,
major-general in the Confederate
army, ex-U. 5. minister to Turkey and
prospective commissioner of railroads
to succeed Gen. Wade Hampton, was
married at the executive mansion at
Atlanta, Ca, to Miss Ellen Dortsch,
aged 33, assistant librarian of the state
of Georgia.
Persons posted on European politics
and alliances are commenting upon
what was regarded as rather luke
warm and cautious reply of King Hum
bert of Italy to toast by Emperor
William at a banquet in the formers
honor at Hamburg. The emperor
spoke strongly on the alliance of Italy
with the German empire through the
drie bund, but King lIumbert'S response
was so worded as to make il under
stood that while Italy will adhere to
the dreibund she does not mean TO im-
pair her relations with other powers
TO do SO; and it was evidently his view
to emphasize this fact.
Emperor William wears black eye
since his recent trip north on the royal
yacht Hohenzollern. Lieut.. Won
Hanke, of the Germany navy, son of
Gen. Won HanlSe, who is the chief of
the emperor's military cabinet is miss
ing since the trip and is reported to
have been drowned The London
Truth asserts that Emperor William
coarsely abused Lieut. Won Hanke and
that the latter, stung by the sharp
words, struck his ruler in the eye and
then suicided by drowning.

THREE ENGINES BLEW UP.

Terrible Collision on the Sante Fe-1S
KiIIed-W. j. Bryan TO the Rescue.
A fast mail train going elst and the
Mexico 81 California express, west
bound. collided head-on, near Emporia,
Kas. The Mexico & California express
was pulled by two locomotives, aud
when the trains struck-going 40 miles
an hour-the boilers of all three en-
gines exploded and tore hole in the
ground so deep that the smoking car
of the westbound train went in on top
of the three engines and two mail
cars and balanced there without turn
ing over. The passengers in the smolS-
ing car escaped through the windows.
The front end of this car was envel-
oped in sitting smoke and steam from
the wreck below, and the rear door
was damned in the wreck of the car
behind. The wreck caught fire from
the engines and the mail cars in the
hole and the smoking car were entirely
consumed. In climbing ont of the
smoking ear several men fell through
the riffs in the wreck below.
The westbouud train carried eirht
coaches, and its passengers included
many excursioni,ts who had been to
hear Hon. w. j. Bryan speak at the
county fair at Burlingame. Mr.. Bryan
was also on the train-in Pullman
coach in the rear-and he did splendid
work assisting in rescuing imprisoned
passengers and in ministering to the
injured. There were at least IL pass
engers killed outright and it is feared
that the list may be increased to Is or
Is when the wreckage is cleared up.
Twenty or more were injured, two of
whom will die.

MINERS STR IKE SETTLED.
Interstate Convention Accepts 65-Cent
Rate Proposed by Operators.

Rate Proposed by Operators.
A four days session of the interstate
convention of soft coal miners. held at
Columbus, o., agreed to accept the
proposition of the operators of the
Pittsburg district Thus the great
miners strike which was declared on
July was practically brought to an
end, so far, NJ least, as western Penn
sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and West Vir-
ginia are concerned. The delegates
from Illinois, who had $50 votes, were
unanimously againsta sc ttlement. In
diana and West Virginia voted solidly
to accept the operators proposition
The resolution adopted is as follows:
"Resolved, That we, the miners OF
Pennsylvania. West Virginia, Ohio, In
diana and Illinois in convention assem-
bled, do hereby agree to accept the
proposition recommended by our ma
tional executive committee, viz, 65
cents in Pittsburg district. all places
in above named states where n relative
price can be obtained to resume work
and contribute literally TO the miners
who do not receive the advance, where
the fight must be continued to the bit
ter finish"
The Illinois miners denounce the ac-
ton of the convention, claiming that
their interests were not given due con-
sideration. They will, therefore, hold
a state convention at Sprin gfeld, Sept.
10, to determine what shall be dono in
their state.
