Four People Lose Their Lives ia a Collision on the C„ Wt. & St, Paul Road. A fearful catastrophe occurred on the Chicago, Milwaukee <fe St, Paul road Wednesday night at Highland Centert Iowa. A freight train dashed Into tho caboose of a local freight standing on tho track, telescoping tbo caboose and four cars. The caboose caught fire, and the scene which followed was awful. Pour people were burned alive and a number of others had a narrow escape. The caboose split into by a car of grain, wedged in four people, on tho right side, A most pitiful sight was Miss Lizzie Butler, of bltumwa, who got her head out of the window and piteously pleaded with those about to save her. Mrs. Jones, also of the same city, tried to escape through tho window, but being an unusually large woman, she could not get through. The other victims were two unknown men. The injured are: Mrs. Clyde Milllsack and Mrs. Pickett, of Ottumwa, and Mis Lizzie Corey. These were badly burned but not fatally. A curious incident was that one passenger was disguised, and in tho crash his disguise came off, revealing a noted crook. Ho quickly disappeared in the excitement.

A HOMESTEAD RIOL Strikers and Negro Non-Union-ists Engage in a Bloody Street Fight. >(«n, Women and Children Mixed Up In th« Fight Which Resulted In Half a Score lleing Wounded* The period of comparative quietness which has prevailed in Homestead, Pa., since the militia left died out Sunday, and the pent up feelings of the strikers broke out afresh in which at least lifty shots were fiiel, but no person was killed, though a score were hit by flying bullets A party of seven colored non-union men wore on their way to their boarding house about 4:45 o’clock Sunday afternoon* when a man, supposed to be a striker, attacked two of the negroes, Charles Carroll and Fred Lewis. Lewis was knocked 'down. This was a signal for a. large crowd to gather at the scone of trouloLewis’s companion came to iris pescuo.and a Wrlbto riot took place between the colored men on one side, and the crowd, sup" posed to be all strikers, on the other. The two sides fought desperately and fired their revolvers and slashed each oth' er with their knives at close quarters for several minutes, when the negroes made a dash through the crowd for their boarding house. They were followed by the booting, bloodthirsty crowd, which by this time numbered at least two thousand men, Including many women and children. The crowd fired and throw stones at tiro fleeing negroes, and they in turn returned the fire on the crowd, and how so many escaped Instant dealh Is a wonder. When the colored men reached their house they ran in and barred the door. In a minute the house was surrounded by an Infuriated crowd, who soon tore down the fence and shattered every window with stones. When the deputies arrived some persons were suggesting that they leave the house, and some began to yell: “Lot’s lynch the nigger black sheep. This was taken cup, and the cries of “Hang them!” were heard on all sides. The officers went in to arrest the colored men and found them huddled in one room, terrified and expecting to be killed. One man, however, was not afraid and said ho would be the first to leave. As ho was taken out a woman hit him with a frying pan.cutting his head. The deputies tried in vain to keep the crowd away as they took the man to the lockup, but he was hi 6 several times. Stones wore also hurl d and deputy Montgomery whs struck. The officers then drew their revolvers and announced that if any more stones were thrown they would have to open fire. A Slav throw a rock which crashed through a window. He was arrested, but the authorities seemed powerless, for by this time over two thousand persons wore gathered. Several other colored men wore beaten on the way to the lockup. About this time anotheraiarmingroport was circulated through the crowd. It was to the efl'cctthat thocolored non-unionists living on “Shanty Hill,” hearing of the assault on their colored brethren, wore about to come down to rescue them. Over fifty of the colored men were ready to make an onslaught at a moment’s notice, and the coal and iron pclico had much difficulty in restraining them. Marion Conrad, another non-unionist, ovm a house above Ann street, on Fourth avenue. During the shooting a largo crowd gathered in rout of his house, and when he appeared began to threaten him. Conrad is sworn in as a deputy sheriff, and ho stood in his door with two revolvers and said ha would hoot the first man who entered the gate. Several deputies then arrived, thus keeping the crowd back for an hour, when it dispersed. After ail the colored men had been removed from the boarding house the excitement subsided rapidly. Pater McFaden, who first engaged the colored men in the fight, was shot through the left arm and cut on the head. James Jones, his friend, who came to his assist, ance in the attack, had a narrow etcapa from death. Ho had clinched with one ol the colored mefi and struck him. As he did so the negro shoved his revolver in his assailant’s face and fired. The ball hit Jones on th e forehead above the eyes and glanced off, cutting a bloody farrow over the loft eye. Jonas and McFaden were arrested Sunday night. Mrs. Jones tried toishicld her husband and attacked the oliice’rs, but was withheld. Of the eleven colored men locked up seven had cuts on their heads, whore they were struck with missiles or clubs. John Lewis and Daxcr Ford were so badly beaten that a physician was summoned to dress their wounds. Guards are on duty at the lock up and non-union boarding houses to prevent an attack. “This is an I-deat hand," remarked the gambler under his breath as his | dealt himself four aces and the other | fellow a quartet of monarchs.
