zette publishes dispatch from Seoul.
Korea, dated July 6, saying that
bloody conflicts extending over q pc
riod of 10 days have occurred on the

teen of the natives and about 300 Of

The governor of Quelpart, accord

Quelpart and upon finding the mis-
sionaries in question alive, the war

Ten ARE KILLED INSTANTLY
Accident Occurs While Men Were
Engaged in Repairing
Wrecked Structure.

Conneaut, o., July 11--Just after

ly workingmen. A fill was being made
at the bridge and about 25 workmen
We're about the structure.
A Conneaut wreck train with local
officials and doctors left for the scene
at II o'clock.
The horrible affair occurred just
after passenger train No. 3 had pull
ed through. The local, after the pass
ing of the passenger train, pushed
three cars, heavily laden, out onto
the structure to unload stone for the
masons working beneath on the large
abutments. The unloading had hard
ly been begun when without any
warning the whole structure bearing
three laden cars filled with laborers
fell with an awful crash into the val
ley. So sudden was the affair that
only one man, mason named George
Smith, mad a chance to leap in time
to save himself from injury. The list
of dead includes:
CONDUCTOR PHIL A. MOORE
Conneaut.
J. ZABoss, workingman, Cleve-
land.
GEO. swARTz, workman, Spring.
field.
HOMER BECKwITH, foreman,
Conneaut.
FIVE ITALIANS, names unknown.
- RANDALL, West Springfield.
The men, as the train fell. had all
leaped as far as possible, so that only
two OF three were buried beneath the
awful mass of debris at the bottom of
the ravine. These were easily pull
ed out and carried to the top of the
hill and placed on lawn awaiting the
arrival of medical assistance, which
came promptly.
AS soon as news of the accident
reached Conneaut a wrecking train
and hurriedly constructed ambulance
train were dispatched to the scene
The wounded were attended to, the
dead were placed on cars and all We're
brought to Conneaut. With the ex
ception OF the men named, Randall
Beckwith and Swartz, who were
taken in charge by their parents
at Springfield. The living were con
yeyed to the hospital. The remains
of the dead were transferred to the
morgue to await identification.

M'TIGHE FLOPs TO QUAY.
On the Other Hand the Anti-Quayites
Claimed "A Gain of Five.

Harrisburg, Jan. There were
some changes here in the lineup Of
members.
Representative John ?. McTighe, of
Allegheny, who was regarded as an
anti-Quay Republican, gave out a
statement, in which he said he had
determined to enter the Republican
caucus last night for speaker and
today fer United States senator. and
will be governed entirely by their ac-
ton. Mr.. McTighe added that he
was thinking of acting for himself
and would leave the people of Pitts
burg to judge as to the correctness of
his action.
The flop of McTighe into the Quay
fold was more than overbalanced by
the capture of Welty, of Franklin
Hoskins. of Erie; Alexander. of Clear
field. and Tiffany and Hill. of Susque-
hanna. These five members have
been on the Quay list heretofore. Al
exander was always classed as doubt
full. but his colleague Frank g.
Haines, assured the Quay leaders
ever since the election that he would
bring Alexander along. The other
four men were always regarded as
absolutely certain to enter the eau

desperation which drives them TO

senate caucus removes all conjecture
as to the organization of the senate.
In the house caucus a number of

will be present tomorrow and Mr..
Marshall will be elected by decis-
