EXILED FROM SERVIA.

[EX-QUEEN NATALIE IS SENT ABROAD. {Shocking Casualty on the Hudson River Railroad—Over a Score or Italian Laborers Killed and Injured by Dynamite— Brief Political Mention. ! EX-QUEEN NATALIE. s Hurried to the Hungarian Frontier. Intense excitement prevails in Belgrade, the capital of Servia. A special dispatch says: Gendarmes forced their way into Natalie’s bed-room and summoned her to arise, as slie must instantly leave Serviaq territory. The Queen calmly replied that she would yield t > 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. She was then allowed to dress herself, and after bidding adieu to the leaders of her defenders, during which a most touching scene was witnessed, the exiled Queen was escorted to a private carriage, which was waiting at the palace entrance, and was hastily driven to the railroad station. At this station a special train was in waiting and the Queen was immediately conveyed on board. No sooner was this accomplished 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. BLOWN TO ATOMS. Thirty Killed and Injured—Much Property Destroyed. A car laden with dynamite, to be used in blasting on the Hudson River Raliroud. suddenly exploded a few miles below Tarrytown, N. Y.: The dynamite was to bo usod in the construction of a third track on the New Yorlr Central Railroad. The explosion came without warning. It shook the ground like an earthquake and tore up everything around about. The earth trembled and the air was filled with flying debris and fragments of human bodies. People a block off were thrown to the ground by tbe concussion. Glass was broken in the windows in houses two and three hundred yards away. When the smoke cleared away there was a sickening spectacle. Thirtyone men, principally Italians, lay upon the ground. The car was nowhere to be seen; portions of the trucks were thrown 100 feet away. Not even the heavy iron wheels remained on the track. Portions of the track and the roadbed were If own away, and a great hole was dug in the ground. |

Their injuries were not serious except In tho case of Deckert and Brudie. who were taken to a hospital. They will be out in a few days. The fire did no considerable damage to property.

Mali Service to Alaska. The first official act of the Postmaster General on his return to the department from his Western trip was to authorize ttie establishment of a complete mail service with the Territory of Alaska, which will ba inaugurated July 1, Hhe contraci having been awarded to the Nortli American Commercial Company or Sun Francisco, which will put on a line of steamers running as far west as Unalaska, touching ut all the Intermediate ports. Orlgluul “ Pnc’e Tom." The Cambridge Afro-American League at Boston was addressed by George Lewis Clarke, who claims to be the original of “Uncle Tom.” He says lie was sold in Sanford, Va., in 1841 and taken to Lexington, Ky., whence he escaped to Massachusetts, met Mrs. Stowe and furnished her with the facts that formed the basis of the s’.ory of “Uncle Tom s Cabin.” Hia skin Turning Black. Henry Six, a young ipan of Noblesville, Ind.. is affected with the same disease that killed Henry Welch, who turned black and died in New York a few days ago. Six is turning blacker every day and begins to look like a negro. His physicians are baffled and say that the trouble comes primarily from the liver. The Gasol ne Boute. One man was burned to death and four roerfand two women were badly injured by a fire caused by the explosion of a gasoline stove at San Francisco. Gone Hence. Colonel L. M. Dayton, un intimate military companion of General Sherman, died at the Queen City Club in Cincinnati. Matthews in the Field. ' CoL A. C.

BATS TERRORISM MUST END, i mvor Shakespeare of New Orleans Lectures a Leader of the Mafia. Mayor Shakespeare, of New Oleum* sent a message to Joe Provenzano to call upon upon him, and when Joe presented blmself he was addressed a follows: “I know well enough that you have longbsen at the head of a disturbing element here that ha* been a menace to the peace of this community. Now, there must be once and forever an end of this. 1 am sick and tired of it. I tell you you must take your hands off. I have issued orders to the chief of police that he use his entire forep to prevent you from carrying your designs into execution. I, am sorry now that I am obliged to go to Denver. If 1 could remain here 1 would personally take command of the police force and I would use every means at my command to wipe from tho face of the earth every member of your gang who tries to raise his hand against a member of this community. In my absence my representatives will act for me. When I return 1 shall act myself. But this reign of terror must stop, and if tlicre>is a way possible to do it.it will stop. Now you have been wurned.’ 1 Provenzano had very little to say. except to protest his innocence. He left the hall very much crushed. The Proven/.anos, it wa« charged by the Rev. Father Muuoritta, were at the head of tho Mafia society. THIS IS ENCOURAGING. There Is a Notable Strengthening in All Lines of Business. R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: In every respect the outlook is more favorable. excepting the largeexporls of gold and the advance in Bank of England rates to 5 per cent., obviously for the purpose of drawing more gold from this country. It is a most favorable symptom that the continued exports of gold cause no panic in this market. It is a significant fact that the exports in April were about double last year's in value as to cotton, and showed an increaso in oil and provisions, but a decrease iri cattle and in breadstuffs, yet in breadstuff's the deoreuse was wholly in corn, and tho surpluss of wheat available for export was. May 1. about 30.000,000 bushels. The exports of wheat from Atlantic ports have bceu much smaller than a year ago until last weok, when nn increase of 10 per cent, appears. In corn the decrease is heavy, of course. The iron furnaces in blast May 1 were of about 2.000 tons greater weekly capacity than April 1, 115,500 tons, against 113,483 a month ago. and 130.090 a year ago. But the trade is less depressed and the long delay iu settlement of the coke strike tends to strengthen prices. The business failures occurring throughout the country during the last seven days number 237 as compared with a total of 242 last week. For the corresponding week ot last year tho figures were 212.

A LITTLE too realistic. Jennie Teamans Faints, but She Fulls the Hero from the Flank Just in Time. The “buzz-saw” scene in “Blue Jeans,” at McVlcker’s Theater, Chicago, was never more loudly applauded than at a recent performance. In this particular scene, Mr. llarcourt, the hero, is thrown by the villain and fastened on a board, which, as tho machinery is set iu motion, gradually approaches the big circular saw. It Is the duty of the heroine. Miss Yeamans, to cut herself out of the office In which she has been locked up. and save the hero at the moment the saw is about ti cut him in two “Fawcett threw me just six Inches out of place,” said Mr. llarcourt, “but I didu’t know iv. Miss Yeamans saw tho danger I was in. and tried to get at me. She tried to or cn (he door as she usually does, but for some unaccountable reason slio couldn’.t. She then burst It with her hands, slightly cutting them. Instead of running down tho steps, she jumped, nearly upsetting herself. She managed to get to mo just In time to free me. and as tho curtain fell she fainted;'” Tills will soem singular, as It Is generally believed that, tho huge saw that looks si dangerous cannot do any injury to any one. Evidently such Is not the case.

BEYOND THE SEA. Ag nts of tlia Worid's Fair Wl'.l Be Sent A broad. Director General Davis, of tlio World’s Columbian Commission, recently requested tl.e Secretary of the Treasury to permit the payment of the expenses of certain persons to go abroad in the interest of the Exposition out of the money appropriated by Congress to be used in connection with the admission of foreign exhibits. The department, has decided that not exceeding three citizens, to be suggested by the Director General, may be designed by tho Secretary of the Treasury to act under tho provisions of the law above mentioned and to be puid from the appropriation referred to. Such persons will co-operate with suclt representatives of the Troasury Department as may bo sent by tho Secretary directly to furnish Information In foreign countries ns to the methods of admitting foreign exhibits. NAVASSA RIOTKRS SAVED. Their Death Sentence Commuted to Imprisonment for 1 lie. The President has commuted to imprisons ment for life at hard labor the sentence of the three Navassa rioters sentenced by the Circuit Court of Maryland to he hanged. In taking this action President Harrison says: “The conditions surrounding the prisoners and their fellows were of a most peculiar character. They were American citizens under contracts to perform labor upon specified terms within American territory removed from any opportunity to appeal to any court or public officer for redress of any injury or the enforcement of any civil right. Their employers were, in fact, their musters. The bossos placed over them imposed fines and penalties without any semblance of trial. These penalties extended to imprisonment and even to the cruel practice of tricing men up for a refusal to work. Escape was impossible and the state of things generally such as might make men reckless and desperate.” BHE GOT NO FAVORS. The Chilian Warship Puts Into Acapulco and Makes Several Requests. A delayed telegram from Acapplco states that the Esmeralda had left that port after having sought several favors, which were refoed. The Esmeralda is well armed and equipped. She received telegrams from the United States and then went to meet the Itata. A Manzanillo telegram says that the captain of a fishing boat there claims that his vessel was nearly tun down before daylight by a large steamer without lights bound north. POSSIBILITY OF THE CHASE. What May Happen If the Itata Enters Acapulco Harbor. The San Francisco Gall has an interview with A. K. Uonev, the Mtxltan consul-gen-eral, in regaid to the probable action of the Mexican government if the Itata enters the port of Acapulco. He says Acapulco is a neutral port, and he is confident the Charleston would not bo permitted to seize the Itata there. But If the Chilian vessel enters there with contraband goods on board it is probable the Mexican officers will train the guns of the fort on her and

seite her themselves. Tbe fort Is not a very powerful one, but Is strong enough to capture the Itata. SMALLPOX ATNASHVILLE. Wholesale Vaccination of People lit the Infected District. A Knoxville (Tenn.) special says: Four reputable physicians of this city ate authority for the statement that there is a well-defined case of smallpox here. The Board of Health, in conjunction with the city authorities, at once took charge of the pi-enuses, put a strong guard around the house, and began the work of vaccinating all the people near by.

A SEA OF FIRE. A Tract of Country in Pennsylvania Sixty Miles In Extent Swept by Flames. A special from Punxsutuwney, Pa., says: A great fire is raging along the mountains between Punxsutawney and Bellwood. It is sixty miles in length. Men who live in tills section state that a fire of like proportions previous to this date was never known. Cannon May Roar. The United States steamer Charleston and the Chilian ironclad Esmeralda are both at Acapulco, Mexico. The Esmeralda’s Captaiu spoke the Charleston, and said to Captain Remy that the Itata would not be taken unless the Esmeralda was sunk first. “All right,” said Remy. “1 have orders to take the Itata, and will do so.” The Itata Is not yet in sight, but a fight is surely expected when she appears. Naturally lively times are looked for. The men in the Chilian cruiser have been expressing their wish for an engagement with the Charleston’s men. Both cruisers are now keenly watching each other, and the residents of Acapulco are In a fever of excitement. They expect to see a fierce sea battle right off the coast at any time.

Looking to a Third Party. The so-called National Union conference of the organization supposed to favor a third party has attracted a large crowd of grangers to Cincinnati, but it is a significant fact that comparatively few States In the East are represented. Two delegates from Maine and four from Massachusetts comprise the contingent from New England. The Maine delegates aro old Greenbackers who wore here four years ago at the organization of the old Union Labor party, whilo those from Boston are deciplos of Edward Bellamy and his utopian ideas. The New York delegation is small and there are only two or three from Pennsylvania. Shipping Chinamen In Bund. At . Pan Antonio, Tex., a train load of Chinamen in bond arrived on their way from Europe to China. They were in sec-ond-class cars, the doors of which we,re locked and the windows closed. A revenue officer and two policemen had charge of the shipment. They will not be permitted to leave the cars until they are placed on board the steamer at San Francisco. Coke Strikers Encouraged. Reports from tiie Pennsylvania coke region are rather encouraging for the men. One hundred and fifty men joined the strikers, many of them leaving the region. Operators, however, are confident and say they will ship ten men in to one who leaves. Evictions are occurring with monotonous regularity, the strikers invariably giving peaceful possession. Wholesale Discharge of Switchmen. Tho Chicago and Northwestern Railroad discharged all the switchmoii employed on its main line. The swlt •lunen have antagonize:! not only the management of the road but other employes, and the action of the company is said to have been taken lifter an understanding had been reached with the other organizations of railroad employes.

At Last u Conviction A Charleston (W. Va.) dispatch says: In tho United States District Court, Warren M. Frame, of Raleigh County, was convicted of violating the lottery law by sending a letter through the United States mails to tho Louisiana lottery, and was fined s2;> and costs by Judge Jackson. This is the first conviction for the offense known to have been made in the United States. Slew Ills Father. The grand jury at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., failed to indict William Coulter for the murder of his father. Coulter was on a load of hay when he met his father at a gate. Tho old man had an ax In his hand and told his son he would kill him if lie passed the gate. When the old man attempted to strike the horses with the ax tho son shot him .lead. Ho Will Survive. A German court has sentenced the proofreader of a paper, which published a seditious article, to four months' Imprisonment. Tho sentence seems to cause some surprise in Germany. It would be accepted as a matter of course here whete one of the fundamental principles of journalism is to lay all blame upon the meek and long-suffering shoulders of the proof-reader. Fig Blaze at Juliet. Joliet. 111., has been visited by one of the most disastrous fires in her experience. The extensive works of the Joliet Enterprise Company were entirely destroyed, involving a loss of at least sl-5,000, on which there was an insurance of SOO,OOO.

The trustees of the Baron Ilirsch fund are considering the question of investing Stoo,000 of the fund In fifty dwelling houses to be built near New York. It was said by those in authority that this is an experiment and intended to relieve somfe of the densely populated Jewish districts in New York City. India Will Send an Exhibit. From far-away Bombay comes Henry Ballantine. to tell the Exposition Directors what British India is likely to do for the World's Fair. He was born in India, is the son of an American missionary, and is an attache of the American Consulate in Bombay. He predicts that India will contribute a magniScent exhibit at the fair.

The correspondent says the marriage will be of much political importance and will be welcomed by the Pan-Slavists. More Pennsylvania Rioting. Hungarian strikers assaulted two Italian deputies at Leith, Pa. The assailants robbed one of the deputies named Tony of his revolver, watch, and SIOO in money. Both men were badly hurt. The Huns were recently evicted from company bouses and are very bitter. ' * Twelve Thousand l oke Handlers Idle. A Scot t-d ale (Pa.) special says the Stonerviile and Eagle plants resumed with a sufficient force of old men to make a fair showing. The operators now have over five thousand ovens burning, and more

than that number ot men working. TWe arc yet over twelve thousand men idle. Slow Collection* Downer! Hina. W. R. Holland, a merchant of Loulsslße, InJ., made an assignment to W. A. ®ollaud. His liabilities about $13,000. and tljo assets are estimated at from $24,000 tv $25,000. He will pay dollar for qpllar. Slow collections were tho- cause at bis txouble. Tosemlte Park Vandals.
