The intimate) friends of tho : otttar - candidates urged their claims. When oho by one the great departments came forward for Veazey, the spirit and. enthusiasm became, contagious and the up-shot was the .withdrawal of tho other candidates, both doing it in most graceful words. Col. Veazey thus succeeds Gen. Alger as the unanimous choice of tho body. Richard i Tobin, cf Boston, was elected Senior Vice Commander on the recommendation of the Massachusetts delegations, and . George B. ' Creamer, of Baltimore, Junior Vice Commander. B. F. Stevens, of Kentucky, was elected Surgeon-in-chiof and M. W. ltecd, of Denver Chaplain-in-chief. Gen.

An explosion originating from some unknown cause, occurred on tho third floor of tho Kendall Manufacturing Company's largo soap factory, at tho corner of Pago and Friendship streets, Providence, B. I. The principal damage was dono the third floor, where flames burst forth and acids woro flowing about. There were seventy persons at work there, and of those ten were taken to the hospital badly burned, , Michaol Carrol-and John McElroy are' probably fatally iujured. Their clothing was torn from their bodies and their flesh burned and blistered so badly that it dropped off in patches. ' Most of the others injured were young boys employed in packing. Coleman, a lad of 1 1 years, jumped from a second -story window inttr -tha-styeexr He succeeded in reaching the street with his clothing on fire. Tho flames camo with tho tmddcnness of a flash of lightning, and those in the rear part of the room suffered most. Foarrnl Fire, The immense distillery of tho Kentucky Distillery Company, owned by Borkhousc & Co., was destroyed at Louis-' ville. In the warehouse were 30,000 barrels of whisky. Tho whisky is valued at $000,000, and the buildings will run this up to over a million. The Government loses $890,000 in taxes, and this makes the total loss over $1,700,000. Many employes of the distillery had narrow escapes from tho explosion of whisky barrels which exploded like cannons. Tho flames were so hot that it was difficult to get within a hundred yards of the fire. Only one person was injured, John Smith, a fireman, having his arm broken. Strategy Succeeded. San Diego special: Ernest Wolffe, a cattle dealer near the Mexican line, a few days ago crossed the ..border for his cattle and on roturnlng with tlicra was forced to pay $500 to Mexican officers as export duty.

' ' MAN? ROA1IS MENACED, The Rig- Strike on the Kew York Ventral Likely to Extend to Other Road. A special from Albany, N. Y., dated tho lith inst., says: The New York Central and Hudsou River Railroad Company and its Knights of Labor employes are as much at loggerheads to-night as over, and so far as this section of the road is concerned there aro no signs of the strikers' weakening. It had been exhere directing alii'.tJueiyjji roan, out tne aisirtci Hsseiumy wouguv 4t best 'to defer promulgating such a manifesto until later when, if tho Central road does not come to tenns.the men will go out not only on the West Shoro, but on all the Vandcrbilt lines and on all roads which attempt to help the Central. One of tho members of the District Executive Board said that all the passenger engineers and firemen on tho Central-Hudson road would bo out within twenty-four honrs. Thus far, however, tho Brotherhood men hereabouts have not appeared to sympathise with tho strikers. Assistant Superintendent Harrington said this evening-. "Almost double tho number of trains wore run to-day that we had' expected would bo possible. We have been overrun with applications for work, and anticipate being able to straighten affairs out hero in 'a few days at tho most." Not a pound of freight was moved out or Albany to-day, the railroad outciais devoting all their energies to solving tho passenger service problem. There has been no outbreak on tho part of the strikers, who navo conducted themselves very quietly. A strong guard of polico continue on duty at tho railroad station, but their services were not needed. Trains arriving from the west and south were, much 'belated, but the railroad officials say that all the through trains were got through despite tho delay. All tho men in tho car shops at Wrist Albany (l,000 in number) have struck, and the shops are closed up. A lator dispatch from Weehawken, N. J., says that all tho employes on that end of the West Shoro road have Just struck. Thero was qulto a riot at Syracuse caused by the strikers attacking a train's crow. Tho militia was railed out by the Sheriff and tlteir presence soon pat a stop to hostilities. The following notice was posted in eonsoicloiis nlaccs in the vicinity of tho depot in New .York: "Persons seeking employment wltn the Grand Central road will please make application at the office of tho Wagner Palace Car Company." Applicants wont to tho office of tho Wagner Palace Car Company by the score, and nes-rlv all of them were successful. Tho gentleman who gave the newly em-! yfoyea umu Uielr ererlentiatB stated that as many as 150 had been engaged. He declared that all of them were experienced railroad men. "The position of tho company is this: Wo will select our men and wo do not propose that they bo designated by tho Knights ot Labor, or its committees. When men are dismissed wo shall got rid of tho inefficient, tho most vicious, and those least in accord with our interests. When promotions are to bo made, we will not bo bound by the seniority rules promulgated by the Knights of Labor. A due consideration will always be given to tho length of service, but tho first and most important rule will bo the qualification ot the man for tho piaco." THK OLD VETS. The Business Session of tho National fiucampmont The session of the National Encampment of tho Grand Army of the Republic was opened at Music Hall, Boston, and delegates from tho differentdepartmonts of tho Union comprised as lino a body of men as over met in deliberative assembly. The hall was bean lifully decorated and the floor was entirely occupied by delegates, while -tho balconies, which wcro set apart for members of the Grand Army, wcro filled with veterans. . ( Gen. Sherman was one of tho first to arrive, and he took a seat with tbe Missouri, Department, although urged to go upon tho platform. He was warmly greeted by tho comrades, aud was tho center of attraction. - Prayer was then offered by the Post Chaplaln-in-chief, I. N. Foster, aud then followed tho address of Geu. Alger, the Commander-in-chief. "While we lament the loss of nearly ali of our comrades," ho said, "it is a source of great consolation and plcasuro to know that one of those great leaders of men Is still spared to ns and is in our midst today. Upon him this nation ispouringits wealth of love and gratitude Let us hope and pray that ho may long be permitted to remain here our louder, our commander, onr idol and our comrade. God bless you, Gen. Sherman. Our lovo for you is beyond words." With rogard to tho disability pension bill lie said: "By a careful reading of this law and the official explanation given of it, it will bo seen that, no matter what a man's financial condition may be, If ire bo physically disabled from performing manual labor, lie is entitled to a pension, so be just to our law-makers, even though they have not given us all we asked. No country on earth is or ever has been nearly as generous to Its soldiers as ours." Gen. Alger closed his address with an oulogy in reference to comrade Joint F. Hartrnnft, the fifth Commaudei -in-chief, who died during tho last year. Tho address was received with frequent expressions of approval by tho largo body of delegates present. Tho reports of Adjutant General George H. Hopkins, of Detroit, and Quartermaster General Taylor, of Philadelphia, were presented. The' report of Adjutant General George II. Hopkins shows that on June 30, 1800, there were in the several departments 7,178 posts, with a membership of 307,385. Tho gains since Juno 30, 1880, wore 520 posts and 20,317 mombors.

A torriuc explosion occurred near) ugoen grave yard, throe mucs soutn or Wahlron, (Shelby County, Ind., causing great excitement throughout the county. Ten acres of land were torn to pieces. One avro was demolished to the. depth of ten feet, The river flat rock was blown up and largo stones were thrown fully half ft mile from tho scene. The gas is burning fifteen feet high from the center of the river, and from ten or more points of the. land torn up. J. H. Lowe, who lives on tho farm where thecx.plosion.occurrod, 'says he heard a terrific report and felt .the earth quivering beneath his feet. , Ho went toward the grave yard and was soon confronted by a shot of flame 200 feet the earth. lllglJ -IUiw Hmw These wru Interspersed with sis or eight active gey sers. The river bed was torn to pieces and the. huge Assures were receiving tho river's water. Shots of flames swept over tho water and a crater covering an area of about one acre was quickly converted into a huge hole from which a continuous roaring and rumbling noiseproceeded. Within tho bend of tho river and for one-eighth of a mile along the stream, great rents are ip the earth and in tho river bed. At the bend of tho river, in tho bank which is of limestone, is a fracture a quarter of a oiilo long. Stones the size of a house have boon hurled from their places. The graveyard was shaken up, the skeletons of tho dead being distinctly seen In tho fractures of the earth, gas flows from the entire surface of tho ten acres. Many theories have been advanced as to the cause of the upheaval. Many people contend that it was a spontaneous combustion of natural gas. Others think that the upheaval was volcanic. Mr. Lowe, who got to the' scene before tho gas ignited, is sure the upheaval was volcanic. Inhabitants in. the locality became wild with excitement and many loft their homos. AVithin the last eighteen months there have been thirteen gas wells sunk in the locality of the. grave yard and whilo each have had some gas none have boon gushers, SOOBAL-8 FATE, Bo Is Conveyed to Frison snd There Shot. New York special: Private eablo dispatches have been received in this city by friends of Enrique Martinez Sobral, late Minister of Foreign Affairs In Guatemala under President Barrillas, telling of tho untimely fate that has befallen him. Those friends of Sobral report that tho Minister, upon being discovered in alleged treachery t& Barrillas. was hurried off to prison and condemned without trial to be shot. This coming to the oars of the. Spanish Minister resident in Guatemala, lie interceded with Barrilias, who agreed to spare Sobral's life, but at once convened a court martial. This latter body, so it is assorted by friends of Sobrai, was entirely composed of men biased against Sobral, and they condemned him to be ak"j i)t. fefebral was returned to the peuitcnth- id.i i d 4nfAittry oonfiue-: meut to await the President's pleasure. It is said that just prior to his departure for Guezaltenago, President Barrilias ordered some of his soldiers to conduct Sobral to the vaults of tho penitentiary and there had him shot. Ex-Convtet Shot. The other night John Brady, who had twice rofbed tho Cornado ferry ticket seller at San Diego, Cai., at tho point of a pistol faring the past month, macfo another attempt and was fatally wounded by a watchman. Brady had an accomplice this time, but the latter weakened and informed President Babcock of tho intended attack. Three watchmori, armed with shot guns, were accordingly sent tj tho. ferry house. At a late hodr Cashier Marshall started with the money from the ticket office to the ge.eral offices of the company. Brady appeared at the door, with his mask an his face, and a pistol in his hand. The watchman saw him, however, and before he could attack the cashier) covered tho robber with his shot-gun and ordered him to throw up his hands, Brady fired two shots at tho watchman and tho latter then emptlod his shot-gun Into Brady's back and shoulder, inflicting a terrible wound. Brady is an ex-conviet, but has a respectifMo family in Kentucky. Brought to Time.

ARKANSAS' DISGRACE.

Bejtort or the Hons Committee on the) Clayton-Brecxinrldge Case). ' (Washington dispatah. Representative Lacey, of Iowa, has prepared for submission to tho HoVtse the majority report of the Elections Committee upon the Clayton-Breckinridge contested election case and "the murder of tho Bepublican contestant. Commenting on Clayton's murder, the report says: The State and nation were horrified. Rewards wero offered, and the community of Morrlllton, near which the murder occurred, passed appropriate resolutions, but no earnest attempt In bringing the murderers to justice has been made by the local authorities. Tbe efforts of the Governor havo been in vain. Much of the work done has been upon a mistaken Idea, and due weight has not been given to the suspiqion that should naturally attach to the ballot-box thieves. Next the report refers to the killing of Smith, a negro detective who was investigating the ballot-box theft, and et George Bentiey, a brother o"T O. T. Bentley, who was suspected of being one tne tnieyes. ueoute.iiaiKt? at tns'time was nnrttintHtg wWi give the Government evidence and ex pose tho guilty parties when he was said to have been accidentally shot by his brother. Tho roport -says there is no direct evidence to show any criminality in tho killing of Bentiey, but declares it unfortunate that these two killings occurred while the men were about to give evidence to the detectives. . Tho theory that Clayton's murder was due to tho enmity of one Hooper is taken up, and tho report says it clearly appears that Hooper was not only in California when the murder occurred but was itl at the time. The report, continuing, says: No reasonable explanation of the murder appears except that some of the ballot-box thieves, finding the taking ot the testimoay.l progressing, killed colonel Clayton to supTrnM4thninvestlgatlon, Mo other motive Is posslbloT The necessity of the enactment of some laws which will prevent ballot-box stealing and murder from conferring a prima facia title toCa seat in Congress is evident from the result in this contest. Had such laws been in force as would havo prevented the contestee from taking his seat with such a title, no one would have attempted to confer such a titlo by stealing the ballot-box. Evidently ballot-box stealing was looked, upon as a Joko in that community until the awful consequences that hare resulted have appalled the good people of the country. Tho murderers of Benjamin, the wellknown Little Bock Republican, who was killed near Morrlllton whtlo conferring with local Republicans with regard to bringing the ballot-box thieves to Justice, must bo well known, for a large number ot persons were present, bat they aire not indicted. No Indictments have been found under the Stat'b election laws for the ballot-box crime; the murderer of Smith Is discharged without trial: the killing of Bentiey is not investi gated, and the oaly man whose crime is minished is Wahl. the Federal Supervisor, who was ludteted for playing cards when ho was shot. In Cleveland County one Dansby appeared, bringing two shotguns, arid announced his Intention of taking an active Interest in the proceedings. He was under tho Influence of liquor. Dansby Is a strong Democrat and a partisan of the contestee. For this offense he was fined $500, a portion of which line was paid by tho contestee. The present case has attracted national attention, bat not because it stands alone as a startling and striking incident ot daagors ahead of oar form of government. But never before has a contest for a seat in Congress boon terminated by the bullet of to In sllonce, the party benefited by the Crime of his partisans quietly and without dispute retaining the nenents or the neata of his competitor, a now element would be introduced into onr form of government. The resolution accompanying the re port declares tho seat vacant. The Proposed Southern Boycott, It is entirely -safe to say that if tho South Is led into declaring a trade boycott against the North in retaliation for the adoption of the Lodgo-Kowelf election bill the movement will not prove formidable or last long. Much has been heard about such boycotts in the past, but they have failed to materialise, and there is ample reason to believe that if tho South should begin the operation of cutting off the nose to spite the face it would not go far before it would conclude to withdraw tho knife. The utter tolly of tho proposed boycott lies in the fact that if it could bo carried ont trie South itself would be injured in a far greater degree than the North. The South now buy's goods and wares of the North for no other reason than that It can do better here than elsewhere. If tho South should leave its best market and go off in a huff to do all its trading with England over tho barrier of a high tariff, it would find tho cost of living heavily increased. If the Southern planters would not under any circumstances buy of 'the North, tho British manufacturers would acquire a complete monopoly of the Southern market, and could and would advance prices. Tho proposed boycott would give the .South an excellent opportunity to practice all tho virtues of "high thinking and plain living." Buying of England Instead of the Northorn States tho South would take upon itself the burden of tho tariff and support of the Government to a larger extent than over before, whtlo the North would be relieved correspondingly. Bofusing to buy anything here the South would have to pay the foroign cost plus the tariff on all its Imported wares and goods, whereas in many cases the Northern peoplt could supply themselves with the domestic product at much less. Tho South would cut itself off not only from Northorn manufacturers but Northern products of aU kinds, and would havo to look olsewhoro for dressed beef, bacon, ham, corn, hominy, corn-meal, etc. Where could It get such supplies? The cotton fields of South Carolina and. Georgia are now enriched by fertilizers taken from tne nortn ana west, out under tho boycott Mils Would be changed. Not buying ot tho North tho South could not ox-nee t to sell to this section, and iu consequence would have great surplus accumulations of cotton, rice, sugar, tobacco, and fruits, to say nothing of turpentine and whisky. Shutting tvsolf out from the market where It can buy cheapest and sell surplus products to tho best advantage, the South would. If it should persist in tho proposed boycott, bring upon itsolf great suffering and commercial disturbance. It might hurt the North, but at tho cost of vastly greater Injury to itsolf. Tho boycott will nover have an existence except In "the vaporing of politicians and sentimental devotees of the "lost cause." No election law that Congress will adopt will cause tho people ot tho South tsaw off the limb on which thoy are sitting and precipitate themselves into a commercial crisis. Possibly thoy might bo persuaded to inaugurate tho supposed boycott, but thoy would end It quick onongh when they began to feel its effects. Only in tho stress of war could thoy endure tho distress which would follow a bloekado of all trade with tho North. If such an embargo were kept up for any length of timo It would Impoverish the South and postpone Indefinitely tho rapid course of develop; niont on which that section Is about to enter with tho aid of Northern enter prise and capital. Tho South will not dash tho cup away from its own lips. Ready now to make the most of Its natural resources and not to lag behind the rest of tho Union, tho South will not demand a commercial divorce from the North and pinch and starve itself for the sake of sectional prejudice.

The above from the nmeGMon, the leading Democratic paper of the State.' has caused a great deal of comment upon tho streets, and tbo fact that snob an' -enormous amount of ammunition for two towns the size of Monticello and Beddlck (West and South Florida) should be ordered is looked on as a Uttio mysterious.

It can hardly have escaped .the attention ot Northern business men that the Democratic Senators who have spoYen on the tariff bill this session have assumed the old arrogant, offensive tone so familiar in tho days of Toombs and Davis. They attack the protective sys- . -torn as a device to benefit the North and East at the expense of other sections ot tho country, and their speeches are apparently intended as a direct appeal to tho sectional prejudices ot their constituents. Moreover, they cast behind thorn alt humbug and pretense, and openly declare that the object which thoir party has in view is the destruction, root and branch, Qf the whole pro-, tcctlvo system. A case In point Is the speech of Senator Voorhees. Mr. Voor hees satd that tho conservative tines laid down by such Democrats as Jackson and Walkor must be abandoned. Walker, it will be remembered, was the author ot tho tow tariff of 1840, aud these were his main principles: "1. No surplus revenue. 3. No duty above the lowost rate which would yield tho required revenue 3k. The maximum duties on luxuries." Those are the principles .which a leading Democratic Senator ' declares are too "conservative" for tho Democijacy ot 1890. In Geneva, at a circus, a female trapeze performer, Mile.
