TIIK TIllllIl l'AKTV MOYRMKN'T. CINCINNATI, May 20.—The national union conference of representatives of the various farmers' alliances and industrial organizations was called to order at 2:SO o'eioek p. in. Tuesday' in the music hall by Capt. C. A. Powers, of Terre llautc, Ind. The hall has a seating capacity of 4,000, but the crowd of delegates and outsiders was large enough to fill every portion of the structure. Charles Cunningham, of Arkansas, was chosen temporary chairman.

The scene was an inspiring- one. The American llag was everywhere—over the chairman's table, on the big organ, festooned around the galleries and decorating the portals—but the red flags that the socialist organization of the city had demanded should be hung up were nowhere to be seen. There were only three mottoes. One the old familiar "United We Stand, Divided We Kail another, "Nine Million Mortgaged Homes," and a third, "Opposition to All Monopolies." Interspersed with these were banners of local assemblies of the Knights of Lar bor.

It wus an unusual sight in Mush1, hall, which lias been the scene of some of the greatest political conventions in this country. It was there that Hayes was nominated in 1H7G, and four years later Hancock was nominated for president by the democrats in this same hall.

The lower part of the hall, whioh seats about 'i,'200, was two-thirds filled, and the report of the committee on credentials show that there are 1,334 delegates in attendance. To those who did not know the complexion of the crowd this would seem to be a much larger representar tive body than it really is. While there are 1,3:14 delegates, Ohio aud Kansas furnish over 000 of them. The other states which are well represented are Illinois, Indiana. Minnesota, South Dakota, Missouri and Nebraska. The south is, with the exception of Texas and Arkansas, without- any rej resentation, and the same can be said with all truth of the east .Xorth Carolina has a single delegate, a colored man, while South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, New Hampshire, Vermont, North Dakota and several other states have not a single delegate in the conference. In all twenty-seven states arc represented aud tlrvee of the territories.

The leaders of the various movements were readily recognized as they entered the hall and enthusiastically greeted. Jerry Simpson and his four alliance colleagues In congress entered the hall arm In arm. and as soon as they wero espied the vast audience rose to its feet and filled the air with shouts. Equally cordial was the reception- accorded to A. J. Streetcr, who came in with the faithful Taubeneck to Senator I'effer, Congressmen Livingstone and Ignatius Donnelly, and to John P. St John, the prohibitionist leader.

When the convention was called to order all joined in singing "America." Rev. D. T. Foster, of Cincinnati, now invoked the throne of grace, beseeching victory against the powers of evil in the name of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of nmn. The delegates repeated with him the Lord's Prayer.

Capt Power, of Indiana, then read the official call for this conference and requested the various organizations therein named to rise as their names were called, which was done, applause greeting the appearance of ex-federal and confederate soldiers, also the Farmers1 Alliance, which showed great strength Next came the Citizens' Alliance and the Knights of Labor, the Colored Fanners' Alliance, which Mr. Power stated were a million strong, and ever ready to do battle. Hearty applause greeted caeh.

There was only one incident in the conference in the afternoon that was significant of what will be done. When the appointment of committees was bofore the house Ignatius Donnelly moved to appoint a member of the national committee from each state, lie said he took it for grants ed that a new party would be organ ized. This sentiment was received with deafening cheers and twenty inen seconded the motion. Gen. Weaver ob jeeted to the selection of such a com mlttce. 11c said it was unfair to the delegates, who had had no opportunity to discuss the third party question and the conference had no right to do any suoh thing. The cogency of Weaver's argument had its eiTcct, and the inevitable wan postponed until later.

The following names were adopted as members of the committee on resolutions, with instructions to go Into session immediately and prepare the convention's platform:

Arkansas, J. 0. Bush California, H. E. Dll ion- Colorado, E. O. Curtis Connecticut, Robert Shine South Dakota, Charles M. Fee District of Columbia, D. A. Bland Georgia, F. C. Post Illinois, JameH M. Dill Indiana, M. a Rankin Iowa, J. B- Weaver Kuntds.

Adjournment was forced the moment the committee on resolutions was announced, the tacit understanding on both sides being that a preliminary scrimmage behind closed doors was at this time the better course.

The committee on resolutions met after the adjournment and organized by making Ignatius 1) mnelly, of Mm

nesotn, chairman. The committee did not get to work in earnest for a considerable time and no one appeared to know how long- It would take to conclude the labors and reconcile, if such a thing were possible, the conflicting elements. Oen. Weaver and other members 'Of the committeo, who emerged at intervals from the committee room, predicted that the committee would do its work harmoniously, and said that the St. Louis platform would be taken as a basis upon which to proceed. There wero all sorts of planks to be proposed and each one would have to be fully aired.

The committee on permanent organization si'h'cU'd Senator Peffcr for permanent chairman, and there was much rejoicing over a result which came from it. Peffer was chosen on the second ballot, and then all the other applicants for the honor were made vice chairmen. They are all prominent men. -Hugh Kavanagli, of Cincinnati, a leading member of the Knights of Labor J. A. llrooks, president of the National Farmers' Alliance, and Gideon Delaraater, of Ohio, an old-time greenbacker. The claim is made that there is much strength added to the new party movement by the fact that any of these persons could be called to the chair when questions affecting their organization were under consideration.

Senator Peffer, ot Kansas, was the orator of the evening at tlio mass meeting which began about 8 o'clock. The senator uiuid a storm of applause began at once his speech. His voice with its sonorous tones and explosive bursts was used deliberately and was aphcard easily throughout the

jjarently

He said the people before him were arbingers of a rctolutlon that would dethrone money and reestablish the authority of the people. It was a movement not to destroy but to create not to tear down but build up not to destroy the wealth of the rich but to restore to labor its just reward. Referring to the placard 011 the balcony of the hall, 'Nine Million Mortgaged Homes," he said that told volumes. "Hut," said he,

I am met with the charge that the men themselves should have kept out of debt. This was an assertion not pertinent. It a child is sick unto death," said he, "the father does not upbraid him with impudence, but calls a physician and saves the child's life first. Wo want to save our lives first The disease of mortal usury must be cured." Growing more fervid in his manner the speaker said: "What shall we do with the money power! Let it It alone. Wo'11 raise up a power among the people and malio our own money and uso It. [Tremendous applauae.l Take their railroads? No. We'll build our own railroads. [Renewed applause. 1 Are we to destroy! No. To IlghtV Yes. with ballots and prayer, for tho alliance Is In a great measure taking tho plftoo o" the ohurehes."

Mr. Peller closed by giving the new party a great boom lilce this: "Does this mean a new party? [Cries of 'Yes."] What else are we hear for?

Applause] The prophecy of the hour is that a now party is to be born here and its name is to bo the 'national party.'" [Applause.]

The next speaker was one who had not been advertised, but who received a greeting that scorned to' raise the vaulted roof. It was General Master Workman Powdorly. He began by declaring that he could say amen to every word Mr. Peffer and Mr. Wilkin hod voiced. Continuing, ho said with animation: "For twenty years men who have followed that banner (pointing to a Knights ot Labor flog in the rear of the stage) have taught, believed and held tlir.se truths. It has been charged that I am here to head oft the thirdparty movement. Why. If your movement is so weak that one small man can head tt off It is not worth the name of a movement. [Cheers.] I have been charged with failing to lead this movement. My friends, this movement is too large to bo led by any one man. [Cheers.] No ono man can lead It or stop It." [Wild applause.)

Mr. I'owdcrly then recounted his connection with efforts to fraternize the knights with other organizations at the meeting in Ocala, Fla., and later at Washington, and spoke of coining meetings in July next and in February of next year at whioh lie predicted a fuller representation would be present than was present in this confcrcnce. Especially would there be a fuller representation from the sunny south. "And to the south let me vy," he warmly Interjected, "when you recognize the 'nigger' as a man we of the east will Join with you heart and hand for reform."

Mr. Powderly went, on to warn the conference against undue haste. No president could be elcctcd this time if it were tried. Speaking to the Kansas men, he said they did not understand the situation In his part of the country, where ignorant/orelgners were brought to the polls and voted by number. Kansas had an intelligent constituency. Pennsylvania required patient education und the success of the reform movement depended upon the education of the people. "Tho Knights of Labor," ho concluded, "will vote tho principles ol their organization, nnd when you form a party embodying such principles have been announced hero to-night you will find ejrffry Knighi of Labor standing at the polls and doing his full duty."

The

meeting disirersed, cheering

again and again for l'owderly and the Knights of Labor. The feeling In favor of decisive and immediate action as to the formation of a new party has been steadily growing, financially in tho city, and wbat wus before a suggestion is now a demand. Whatever may have been the sentiment at the outset of this conference, it would not be altogether a surprise if the work of this body would be something more than a mere preliminary to future action as was first claimed.

MITCH KX(-ITEMEXT.

BEI.ORADK, May 20.—After a consultation of the ministers and regents Tuesday morning it was decided coute qui coute to expel Natalie from Servia aud instructions to that effect were given to the police. Consequently a strong force of gendarmes made a fresh attack upon the queen's palacc, and succeeded in breaking through the cordon of citizens who were guarding Natalie. After a sharp tight' with the queen's defenders, the gendarmes succeeded in forcing their way through the cordon and in entering the palace. The gendarmes then forced their way Into Natalie's bedroom and summoned her to arise as she must instantly leave Servian territory. Tho quean calmly replied that she would yield to force, and requested the students who had so gallantly defended her and who were even then prepared to lay down their lives for her, to make no further resistance so as to prevent any more bloodshed.

The queen was then allowed to dress herself, and after bidding adieu to the leaders of her defenders, during v/hich a most touching soeno was witnessed, the exiled queen was escorted to a private carriage which was waiting at the palace entrance, and was hastily driven to the railway station, followed by the oheers of the students and citizens of Belgrade, whose enthusiasm had to be kept within bounds by the display of an overwhelming force of troops, who lined the entire route of the railroad station. At this station a special train was in waiting, and the queeur was immediately conveyed on bodrd. No sooner was the queen and her personal baggage on board than the train left the depot for the

Hungarian frontier, and Natalie, of Servia, calm, pale, but evidently suffering from intense emotion, left Belgrade, the scene of so many of her troubles and triumphs. There is no denying that the popularity of the exiled queen has been greatly Increased by the recent action of the authorities, and, on the other hand, there is no doubt that the popularity of the ministry has decreased in proportion to the Increase of the queen's popularity. The populace is especially enraged against the minister of war. Col. Miletics, who is understood to have been the most active of the ministers in Insisting that Natalie should be expelled. In fact, the popular feeling against the minister -of war is so great that it is probable that he will be compelled to tender bis resignation.

VIKNNA, May 00.—It is stated here that e$Queen Natalie of Servia is en route to the palace of Sin at, at Bucharest, the capital of Roumania, a fact whioh gives rise to the rumor that important political events may follow her expulsion from Servia.

IU.OWJJ TO ATOMS.

TAHRYTOWN, N. Y., May 80.—At 11:20 Tuesday morning a work train on the Hudson River road was blown to atoms IM miles below Tarrytown by an explosion of dynamite in transportation for blasting purposes in track construction. There were thirty-three men, including Italian laborers and train men, on board. Of these eighteen were iustantly killed and fifteen terribly torn and wounded. Many of the deud were blown Into the river, and five bodies still remain there unrecovered. The train was torn to atoms, the tracks ripped from their bed and a great hole many feet deep dug out of the earth, totally blocking traffic on the railroad for many hours.

The train was in charge of Conductor Connors and the gang of "men was under Jerome Disston as boss. The dynamite was all stored on the first of the four flat cars composing the train. It consisted of twenty-four cabes, and each case contained fifty pounds, making a total of 1,200 pounds.

The force of the explosion g'iis terrific. The ground trembled as though from an earthquake, the wall* of several Tarrytown houses were shaken and cracked, and in the Tarrytown streets the window glass fell in showers to the sidewalk. A spark from a passing engine is believed to have caused the explosion. The train was •utterly demolished and eye witnesses say the air was filled with splinters and debris, while the bodies of the luckless train crew were hurled, some torn limb from limb, in every direction. A terrible sight presented itself to. those who hurried to the scene of the accidant.

The dead were removed to Vanderbllt's morgue in Tarrytown. Ten of those killed were picked up along the track, while five were taken from the river. Three of the injured conveyed to the depot died shorts ly after reaching there. It is believed that there are still two bodies in the river, and that would bring the total number of killed up to twenty. From later report* it would secin that, instead of thirtythree men being on board the Ill-fated train, the number was nearer fifty. Of those killed all were Italians save John McCarthy, timekeeper, of North Tarrytown Frank Morrissey, who had charge of the dynamite, of Peekaklll, and Brakeman John Smith.

The explosion happened almost directly In front of the handsome residence of Richard Hoc, the printing press manufacturer, while the mansions of Elliott F. Shcpard and of John Rockefeller are close by. A panio occurred In the high school of Terrytown among the pupils. The school building was violently shaken, and the scholars and teachers thought an earthquake hud occurred. The children ran out of their classrooms Into the street but fortunately none were injured in the wild rush.
