A great many subscribers to Thk Indiana State Sentinel an; in arrears on its books, a largo proportion of them to a considerable amount. c have given repeated notice of an intention to adopt the cash-in-advance system, and the time has about arrival when it. must take effect. The present issue vill he the List but one that will ho sent to delinquent subscribers. We regret the necessity of taking this step, hut 5t is imperative. Sound business principles tlemand it; justice to ourselves and fairness to our paving subscribers compel it. We are furnishing what is admitted to bo, all things considered, the best weekly newspaper in the United States. We charge but one dollar a year for it less than two cents a copy und we pay tho postage. We have rorently enlarged the paper, and have expended nearly $120,000 in a new press, a new outfit of type and other improvements. We cannot atford longer to send tho paper to those who value it so lightly as to permit their subscriptions to become delinquent. We have given all our subscribers, who are in arrears, repeated admonitions, and they must accept this as the final warning. "With next week's issue their names will bo dropped from our lists unless in the meantime their fcubstriptions shall be renewed. In carrying out this rule there w ill be absolutely no discrimination. All will be served alike. We shall except nobody. It will have to be a clean sweep. We sincerely hope that as few oi our friends as possible will permit their names to be dropped from The Sentinel's list where many of them have stood for years because of their neglect to pay the amount necessary to settle their arrearages and assure the continuance of those weekly visits which we are certain they enjoy and appreciate and will sorely miss if they are stopped. Installs Pol ni; the Work of Monopoly. The republican press, or a section thereof, affects high glee over the Inc. alls-Vook-ilees incident. The Journal of yesterday devqted several columns to a republication, from the Corojo clonal Jlrord, of the full report of thu debate if the term may be applied to the disgraceful exibition of blackguardism by Ingalls, and -Mr. Yoouiiees' indignant response thereto. I no alls' attack upon the Indiana senator was cowardly, brutal and infamous. It was a disgrace to the Tr. S. senate, an insult to the country, and a flagrant oilense not only against tho established rules of parliamentary intercourse, but against common decency. It did not injure Daniel Wr. Vookhees, localise he is too well known to the American people, and too well grounded in their confidence ami reFpeti tobe injured by anything that such a scurvy blackguard as Ingalls could do or ay. It didn't injure Incalls, because, like Fantnie, "all that can happen has hapiiened to him." There has been no public, nun of vither party, within the memory of the present generation, who has fallen so low in the scale of decency and manhood as this miserable political prostitute, who is Ikept in the senate of tho United States by Jay Gould to do his dirty work. It didn't injure the democratic party, because the conscience and intelligence of tho ioople are with it in its battle against JMonojoIy, and appreciate the motives that inspire such characters as Ingalls in their attempts to falsify its record and impeach its patriotism. It has only injured the republican party, because it advertises it as an organization with its face toward the past, and exhibits it in its true character of a sectional party whose very existence is a menace to tho national prosperity and -a peril to our free institutions. It ought not tot necessary to point out to the intelligent people of Indiana and of the country the motive w hich has inspired tho campaign of falsehood and skmder which has been instituted against the democratic party by Ingalls and his associates. It is perfectly transparent. The purpose and object oi these afrject servants of monopoly is to revive sectional prejudices and animosities, und to excite anew the passions and hatreds which embittered the country a quarter of a century ago, but which have been lying dormant for years, hoping thereby to divert publio attention from the real issues of the hour. It is the only chance they can see to fasten ujion tho country tho monstrous system of taxation which has Luilded up the power of their masters at such a fearful cost to the jeople. There is a ribingtide of public sentiment against this infamous system of legalized plunder, which threatens to wipe it out at a stroke, and in their alarm and desperation the banditti of protection and their natural allies, the land grabbers and the corporation robbers, have entered into a conspiracy against the peace and harmony of the country, hopingnnder cover of it to renew their deadly grasp upon the resources and productive industry of the nation. It's a villainous plot, but it will not succeed. The people understand it, and they will call its authors and their agents to account ia due time. The Kansas reptile was very
fittingly chosen by the gang of public enemies who have devised this unholy scheme as their mouthpiece; and it is well that it is so. No cause championed by Fuch a notorious political strumpet can win popular favor in tho United States. No movement which puts such a disreputable character forward as its leader can be successful. "o crusade of slander and blackguardism, which logins by assaulting the characters of such tried and true public servants as Gkover Cleveland and Daniel W. Voorhees, and by invading such honored graves as those of McClellan, Hancock and Gkeeley, can have any other ending than one of humiliation and disaster for the public enemies who instigated it. As for Mr. Yooriiees, he needs no defense, no sympathy, no support. The republican papers assure us that he was worsted in his combat with I no alls. Well, perhaps he was, from their point of view. He is a gentleman, a scholar and a statesman, and in neither of these characters could he be expected to hold his own in a bout at blackguardism with such an accomplished professor of vituperation as
Ingalls. Xoliody denies and no decent person envies the pre-eminence of the latter in the only role in which he has ever been conspicuous that of a blackguard.' Gladstone wouM he at a fatal tlisa J vantage if he attempted to kindy epithets .with a Fleet-st. thng. Dax Vookbeks is a master of invective, but he can't throw stink-pots with Incalls: We, are glad, for the sake of the good narr of Indiana, that lie has neither the talent nor. the ambition to shine in a pursuit which I no alls finds so congenial. The only mistake he made in his encounter with the Kltnsas rufiian was in losing his temper, aud in applying' to his assailant teruis'.which, however strong and '.'unparliamentary did. ' but scant justice to his meanness and malignancy,' A Doarl Question vs. a Live Issue. The Journal prints three-quarters of a column of scandalous and brazen falsehoods about the democratic rarty, and its attitude during the war of the rebellion, under the caption of "The Truth of His tory." It asserts, among other things, that "history. shows that the war for the preservation of the union was prosecuted by a republican administration, backed and aided by the loyal people of tho North, of whom nirutyßve ;xr cent, icere rtpuhlicmiA." Such unblushing mendacity as is here displayed has rarely found a parallel, even in the columns of our superlatively mendacious contemporary. The Sentinel is a paper of to-day, and deals with the questions of to-day, but if it were a paper of yesterday, and had the space and the inclination for a discussion of the issues and events of yesterday,'it could easily demonstrate, upon unimpeachable authority, the utter falseity of the above assertion. It is sutlicient now to say that the statement that ninety-live per cent, of the loyal people of tho North during the war were republicans is an absurd and malicious fabrication and a wanton and gratuitous insult to the memory of hundreds of thousands of patriotic nu?n who poured out their blood and treasure freely to preserve the union. It is a fact, and history has so recorded it, that the democratic party, as an organization and in the individual persons of the millions who composed its membership, wus faithful to the union during the war, as it has been from the very foundation of the Government to the present moment;. The democratic states contributed more men to the union army in proportion to their population than did the republican states. There were as many democratic as republican soldiers in tho union army. The bravest and most brilliant commanders of the Northern forces were and always had been democrats. The republican party, as an organization, virtually ceased to exist during the war in most of the Northern states. There w ere but two parties in the North for several years, one styled the "union party," and the other the democratic party, both of -which denied the right of rebellion or secession, and maintained the integrity of the union, although thej differed about measures and methods. The sublime effrontery with which for more than twenty-five years, the leaders of the republican party ami its newspaper organs have claimed that republicans alone put down the rebellion, restored the union and emancipated the slaves has never been equaled in the annals of partisan warfare. As a matter of fact, however, the mouthing: of blackguards like Ingalls, and tho ravings of such papers as the Indianapolis Journal are not so much the ebullitions of fanatical partisanship or malicious ignorance as tho manifestations of a studied design on the part of the republican managers to divert the attention of the country from the real issue of the hour. The question before the pcoplo is not "who suppressed the rebellion?" but "shall the war taxes be reduceM." The republican leaders are afraid to face this issue. But they cannot evade it. The democratic press ami the democratic leaders will hold them to it. The battle in' Indiana, and throughout the country will tie fought out on this issue, and this issue alone. Down with tho war axes. ...r , r Wages and Protection. '; Like causes should produce like' effects in Europe and America. If high tariffs make wages high, they should accomplish that result as well in Italy or m Germany as in tho United States. If with high protection starvation wages prevails in these countries, the unavoidable deduction is that thero is another cause thntr the tariff for whatever advantages tho wugd- workers of the United' States may possess over those of tho Old World. . .' . The fact is ami it is a fact w hich protectionist orators and writers always strive to conceal that wages in the protected countries of Europe is much lower than in free trade Great Britain. For illustration, re wrts from 13-4 factory towns in Germany show that the average earnings of weavers in jower mills (cotton) is three dollars per week of sixty-six hours. The pay of women, of course, averages considerably less. During tho period covered by these returns the wages in Franco for similar work was $2.8 i per week. In Manchester, Eng., w hero a. week means fifty-six hours, the women ' average ?:i.00. to ?:j.c,7 er week. In Manchester 4 men cardwinders receive Sö.ST, and in France hut $3.47. The Manchester mills, therefore, pay to cardwinders fc3 cents more a week for at least ten hours less work than the highest wages paid to a weaver in4a üernuu mill,
and $2.40 more than is paid in France for precisely the same kind of work. Male Bpinners in Manchester receive $G.P0; in France $0.70. France and Germany have .high protective tariffs; England enjoys commercial liberty. About the same differences in favor of English workingmen will be found through the entire list of mechanical occupations. The average pay of machinists in Germany, as shown by returns from the machine; 6hops of 232 towns, is $3.82 per week. The highest wages paid, according to these returns is $o.i5 a week, and the lowest $2.40. During the samo time the lowest wages paid in the machine! shops of Birmingham was to laborers.'who received $4.32 for fifty-four hours' work, $1.92 more than the lowest wages and 50 cents more than the average paid in Germany. Other wages paid in Birmingham was as follows: Steamhammermen, $12.96 (nearly twice as much as the highest wages paid in Germany) ; molders, S8.40; patternmakers, $7.92; turners and fitters, $7.8, and planers $0.72. Germany lias a high protective tariff; so' has France. England is a free trade country, and her workingmen. average almost double the pay of the "protected" workingmen of France and Germany. Doesn't this fact completely demolish the claim that hijrh tariffs make high wages? Ingalls ought to bo removed from the chair of the nenate and then expelled from that body, and would be if it had not degenerated into a close corporation of plutocrats who represent nothing but the illegitimate wealth of themselves or thjeir. masters. There are a few honest men in the senate and Daniel W. Voobhees is one of them. But-a majority of the U. S. senators to-day are senators only by the grace of plundering corporations and monopolies begotten of infamous legislation. They are not there as representatives of the people or of the states, but as the tools and confederates of public robbers like Jay Gould, and of swindling combinations of capital such as the l'acific railroad companies and the Standard Oil ompany. It is not inappropriate, perhaps, that such a disreputable and shameless person as John James Ingalls should occupy the place of honor (?) in a body which, in its collective character, represents all that is evil and corrupt in the political and social life of the nation. The Journal observes that"TnE Sentinel
neglects to rally to the defense and support of Mr. Yooriiees." Mr. Yooriiees needs no defense or support from The Sentinel. The people of Indiana know him and the slanders of Jay Gould's Kansas puppet will not injure him in the least in their estimation. On the contrary they will strengthen him. It is an honor to be abused by such a creature as Ingalls. The decent people of Indiana and of the country so regard it. The only way in which he can injure Daniel W. Yooriiees is by praising him. So long as he spares Yooriiees his praise that great statesman will be secure in the respect and affection of the'iioblo commonwealth which has so freely honored him in the past, and whose confidence in his patriotism and his integrity was never so strong as at this moment. Eveky mail brings orders to The Sentinel for Gen. Lieb's great work on the tariff. This book has already attained a wide circulation in Indiana, and is bound to play an important part in educating Pthe people of this state to a 6ense of the iniquities of the . protective system. If you haven't ordered it yet, you should do so at once, and, after reading it carefully, lend it to your republican neighbor. It will do you both good. The book will be sent postpaid to any address on receipt of the price $1.00. Two brave union generals were defeated Thursday for the post of delegate-at-large to the Chicago convention Gen. Shackleford and Gen. Lew Wallace. All thejiersons chosen as delegates-at-large were stay-at-home patriots of the Ingalls stripe during the war. The accomplished and cultured Gen. Lew Wallac e wanted to be a delegate-at-large to the Chicago convention. But the Slick-Six wouldn't allow it. The slick gentlemen have no use for such a man as Gen. Lew Wallace. They can't trust him, you know. Daxiix W. Yooriieks would better not come back to Indiana very soon unless he wants to receive such an ovation as no citizen of the state has ever received before. Senator Vookhees' description of Ingalls as "a liar and dirty dog" was not very elegant, jx?rhaps, but it had the merit of strict accuracy. Ixoalls is a despicable character, but he appears to be no worse than his party. A Good Iteginning. Toledo Be. Havios: nominated a first-class ticket, Indiana democrat are taking the necessary steps to see that it gets there. An indicating; this tuet, it is mentioned that Kosonisko county already has nine Hendricks chili in good working order, nd organization in going forward throughout the täte. This is largely the situation everywhere, and a noon as the presidential ticket is in the field the work will b pushed without relaxation until victory crowns the cause iu November. A Senatorial Monstrosity. (Botton Post. Senator Ingalls' second tirade is trnly inter ting ns a curiosity of venomous language. It is easy to understand why crowds swarm to th senate chamber to lisien when he is announced for one of hi great norts, since such aa exhibition of unrestrained license in r-peech, and of violence iu the distortion of ideas, is a marvel appealing htrongly to the morbid taste for sensations. Mr. Ingalls, indeed, is too violent to be nincere, nnless his may be the sincerity of a disordered mind. . It Ya Wicked of Voorheea. I Enquirer.) . , ' But why did Senator Voorhees, in his reply, hit In.dU with a beetle? Would not a small sized inalb t, or a tack hammer, have done just as well? The Indiana senator explained that he was talking about a corpse w hich he had vainly attempted to galvanize, and the metaphor was not a bad one. Why, then, pound the dead into a gelatinous condition? It was very w icked of him. A Drab's Political Harangue. Washington Special. The glory of Senator Ingalls met its Waterloo to-day. To-night none would Mand as the apologist of his alleged ' great "eH'ort. A mere compilation of passages of irony, unreliable statistics, and without even the climax or peroration to give it weight A flat failure, simply a political harangue from a drab.

The universal verdict, of the democracy throughout the Mate, i that TlfK INDIANAPOLIS SENTINEL under its present editorial management has been greatly improved in tone and is now a creditable representative of titu democratic party.

STEAMER EUREKA CUT DOWN AT SEA. No Trace to 1e FouimI of the Doomed Vessel The lieniiioii, Which Cut Ufr Down, Kadly Damaged and Filliiis AVith AVoter The Curtain's Story. NORFOLK, Va., May 7. The British stcamc Bcnisou, Capt. Aitkenhead, from ManLmzas to Philadelphia, wa towed here to-day in distress, and reports being in collision yesterday afternoon shortly after 12 o'clock, during a dense tog, with the steamer Eureka, Capt. Ewick, from New York to New Orleans. When tho fog lifted about' half an hour afterward, the Eureka was nowhere in sight, and it is feared fche was sunk. After the collision there was the sound of escaping steam aud one whistle. The Benisou's bow was badly stove in, and she would have sunk but for her water-tight compartments. The Eureka is a large freight boat, and carries no passengers. Her crew, all told, number thirty-eight persons. The collision occurred 1C8 miles southeast of Cupe Henlopen. The Beaison struck the Eureka square amid ships. 1 Tho captain of the Benison says the weather Sunday morning was alternately fair and foggy. At 12 o'clock the fog was so dense that he Could not take observation and took soundings to nsccrtaia Iu3 position. After taking soundings and while the ship was going at a slowspeed he went below to look at the chart. He heard his slxip give one whistle and hurried on deck. The mate told him a vessel was on his port bow. He gave the proper signal and ordered hchn to port when two blasts from the approaching steamer caused him to starboard his helm anJ as his vessel was swinging around the unknown sliip loomed up More the fog, and came down on him at full speed. His bow struck her 'squarely just aft of the bridge on the starboard side. Before the unknown ship was lost to sight in the fog the mate ..read her name Eureka. The Benison lay to and when the fog lifted in about half an hour the Eureka was not to be seen. It has been . suggested the Eureka might have been hidden bv the fog then lying some miles to the south oi the Beuison, but this is thought impossible as .the Eureka was struck in her most vital part. The Benison would have sunk at once but for her water-tight compartments. The Benisou was towed inside the rapes by the steamship Hudson from New York to New Orleans, and brought here by a tug to-day. The hole in the Benisou's bow is an ugly one, and when the collision occurred the rush of water carried away everything in the forecastle. There arc nineteen inches of water in the Benison's second compartment ami she is nowlying on . the bottom here In a sinking condition. The Eureka was valued at $75,000 and her cargo at $1,5,000. she was a four-master, schooncr-ritrged, built of iron, w ith three decks and six bulkheads; was 330 feet long, and registered 3,530 gross tons. A HEAVY FAILURE. One of San Francisco's 01det Commission House Goes Under Suddenly. Sax Francisco, May 7. The wholesale commission house of William T. Coleman & Co., made an assignment to-day to L. L. Baker and Louis Sloss for the benefit of their creditors. Frank S, Johnson, managing partner of the firm, submitted a statement to the effect that the firm was unable to realize upon the assets immediately, and in view of pressing engagements in .New York, where a call upon them for money was urgent, they decided to make an assignment in order to prevent the dissipation of their property. Mr. Johnson places the assets of the tiriuat from four to four and a half millions and the liabilities at .0( 0,000. The indebtedness in California, w ith the exception of a number of small amounts, is confined to four banks and two individuals. Mr. Johnson further states that among the most valuable assets of the firm is; borax, a property which is valued at 2,000,000 ami tiiat' Negotiations for the sale of which were in a fairway to be consummated when the announcement of the tariff bill placing borax on the free list tended to defeat the efforts in that direction. The firm feels confident that the resources are sutticient to more than meet all cngageaients. The banks mentioned as creditors are the Bank of California, Bank of British Columbia, Nevada hank, and Bank of British North America, The firm is indebted to the Bank of California to the amount of luo,000 or which $130,0(10 is secured. It is estimated that the firm ow es the Bank of British Columbia $ino,000; Nevada batik, $220,f"N), and Bank of British North America, $lMi.0Oo. It is stated that of the whole amount of Coleman & Co.'s indebtedness, one-half is in this state and the other half is in the East, the greater part of the latter being held by New England banks. The assignments made to-day were made by both the firm and William T. Coleman as an individual. The foundation of the firm of William T. Coleman dates back to 184'J since which time the house has taken a foremost place in the business interests of the coast. The h.use has agencies in Astoria, Ore., New York, Chicago and 1ondon. It also acts us agent for a large number of manufacturing and producing establishments and lor the principal salmon canneries of the Baeilic coast. The shipping department is agent for several lines of clippers to and from Australia, Chiua? and other ports. The business of the firm is said to amount to $14,00O,0i0 per year. Kmperor Frederick's Condition. Beklin, May 7. A bulletin issued this morning says: "The emperor's sleep was disturbed last night. The secretion of pus is more copious and the cmjeror feels languid." He passed a good day and feels somewhat better. His fever is very slight this evening. At a consultation of physicians it was agreed that the emperor showed improvement. The emperor himself said he felt stronger and fresher. The discharge from tho throat id less. His temperature is ÖS.) Celsius. The. emperor's weakness, however causes alarm iu the city. It is said the discharge of pus is now so copious that it is necessary to clean the canula every half hour. The empress to-day attended a meeting of the inundation relief committee at the tow u halt iShc was given a hearty receptiou. The empress made a speech in which she advocated the adoption' of a system for saving life and property from destruction by floods, and she recommended thntditricts liable to inundation be provided with life-boats. Mayor Forckenbeck presented the empress w ith a bouquet of white rose when she left the town hall. The people pressed around her cheering enthusiastically. The emperor's fever continues low, showing that no fresh abscess is forming. Dr. Mackenzie induces htm ' to take necessary food, but his weakness is becoming serion. He had refreshing imps this afternoon. This evening he emphasized the remark that he felt stronger by clinching hisfit vigorously and stretching and withdrawing hin arm. , . - ' ii - 'AfTek tho "next issue of The Indiana f tAtk Sentinel the! names of all subscribers who are in arrears will lie dropped.

FIGURES THAT DON'T LIE. Hut They Show That the Republicans Do Lie Most Shamefully. To the Editor Sir: Will you pardon me when I say that the republicans lie w hen they say that they fought and rut down the rebellion. I will give you a few historical facts and figures w Inch do not lie which you are at liberty to use as an answer to these foul-mouthed slanderers of the men who really fought the rebellion and restored the union. Yours respectfully, D. Smith (Rev.). "The republicans put down the rebellion, did they? Yes. with a vengeance. They did not do any such thing. Look at the following, based on ligures taken from the 'American Cyclopedia': Six months before the war commenced Abraham Lincoln received lfMi,4ä2 votes; Douglas, l.IU.öy-t; Breckenndge, S:.0,0&; Bell, m,Yli. The total opposition vote w as therefore 2,7i)7,7S0, or a population of nearly one million majority againt the republicans. Now let them bear in mind that there were 2,078,975 union Boldiers, or nearly one million more soldiers than there were republican voters in the country, provided every republican went into the army. But we know the republicans did not all go into the army. But say one-half went and then you have P.'l.U'Jt) republicans who wore the blue and fought the battles of the country, and the remainder of the 278,97G, or l,74;$j750 were loyal democrats. The fact is, and we all know it, the republicans staid at home to make money, but the majority of the soldiers were democrats. So much for the democratic soldiers that fought the rebellion. Now let us see how it was witli the generals. (ffff'y-ßte noted union generals finrty-viive were democrats and fix vrpublicans. The latter were tJens. Banks, w ho was called "Stonewall Jackson's commissary ;" Carl Sichnrz, now a vigorous "independent;" Frank Blair, Franz Sigel, Thomas Ewing and H. W. Slocum. Of these original republicans Frank Blair died a democrat, and the others, except Schurz, are all democrats now. So much, then, for the re

Rome, May 6. Emperor Dom Tedro of Brazil is seriously ill at Milan. He is feverish. Doctors have been summoned from Borne and Naples for a consultation.. Beelin, May 6. The emperor was feverish during last night, and he was frequently disturbed by an increased discharge of pus. His temperature rose to nearly 30. By morning it hail fallen to 37.0; but the emperor felt exh utsteil, and the doctors advised him not to leave his bed. To-day there has been no discharge of pus, and the patient has had a tolerably quiet day. Iiis face has a fairly healthy color and bis ej-es are bright. The emperor is rdwavs pleased when he makes himself understood by si lmis and whispers. He finds writing irksome. The empress has recovered from her attack of neuralgia. To-day she drove to Berlin to visit Empress Augusta. Another abscess has hrokcu in the emj-ieror's throat. SHE LOVED A COWBOY And After lleing Wounded in a Duel She Murderad Her Klvnl. ST. Loi'ls, May 6. News from the Lima Valley in New Mexico gives an account of the tragic and fatal result of the difficulties between Miss Sarah Bolton and Mary Le Moore, who fought a duel last week, the result of a quarrel over the alll-ctions of a cowboy named Whitman. In this duel Mis Le Moore was shot thiough the shoulder but recovered in a few days and last evening, closely veiled, went to the house of her hated rival and meeting her at the gate shot her dead. Returning to her home, she proudly boasted of the crime. She was soon after placed under arrest. As a revolver was found on the person of the murdered woman it is believed that she, too, was awaiting an opportuuity to fiuish the work of the duel. Jay Gould Caught Up With. New Yoek, May 5. The Tinus this morning states that the Gould party were yesterday temporarily enjoined from proceeding further in their efforts to get control of the International & (ireat Northern, now leased by the Missouri, Kansas & Texas, w hose directors are nraetieally the same as the Missouri Pacific. The Gould scheme was to get hold of the I. & G. N. by means of two notes aggregating MX,0(0 issued the M., K. & T. in behalf of its leased line, the I. & t N-, to secure uionev alleged to have been advanced for the benefit of the I. & (.'. N. by the Missouri Pacific. The M., K. & T. directors pave the Gould party, as security for these notes, 0,'X) shares of the I. & G.'X. stock, 10,000 shares of the G., II. & II. , connecting the I. & G. N. with Galveston, anil also t'Kio shares in the Boone ville bridge. It was through these notes and securities that tue Goulds in an underhand and summary manner proposed to scoop the I. & G. N. But the stockholders "caught on" and have brought suit to recover their property. It must be remembered that in these dealings the M. K. &T. ami Missouri Pacific directors are practically the same body of men. The final hearing oft lie order to show cause will be heard shortly. The above explains the following received from Palestine, Tex.: "Vice-president S. II. II. Clark of the International & Great Northern railway company has issued the following important order dated May 4: 'On and after this date the International A Great Northern railway and leased line will be operated by the International fc Great Northern railway company .

WRECKED AXD BLOWX UP.
A NOVEL AND TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. A Collision Kxplooea a Carload of Powder With Frightfully Fatal Results A Circus Train Wrecked in Ohio. Mr. Carmel, Fa., May 6. Between 10 and 11 o'clock last night a terrible accident occurred on the Philadelphia & Reading railroad between this place and Locust Gap. A freight train consisting of seventy-five cars bound for Williamsport became disconnected by the breaking of a coupling, and the engine and three cars ran half a mile before the crew discovered that the train was divided. The first section awaited tLv arrival of the second at the foot of a heavy grade and the two brakemen losing control of the second section, it dashed into the first, causing au explosion in.the third car, which wus loaded with Dupont powder. At the scene o A he accident the railroad runs along a hill, at the bottom of which stood two rows of houses occupied by the Philadelphia & Reading coal and iron company's employes. On the hillside stood a little cottage, occupied by John Quinn and family of four children, two boys and two girls. The force of the explosion wrecked the buildings, seventeen in all, and the stoves set fire to the ruins, (juinn and his two little girls were burned to death. The two boys escaped with hums. Simon Kerwick's family consisted of Mary am' Willie Cavanaugh, adopted children, aged respectively eight and fourteen years; Daniel Kcrwick, aged eight; Alice Kerwiek, aged five, and his. wife and new born babe. Mr. Kcrwick carried his wife from the burning building, but the children were burned to death. Thirty persons were injured, the most seriously beiug: , Mrs. Milfj?

Steubenville, O., May 6. At 1 o'clock this afternoon a terrible calamity occurred on the C. fc P. railroad, aliout three miles above this city, at Mika ana station. As tlu train of the Miller fc Freeman circus was passing this point, through a deep cut known as the "backbone," it met a land slide which threw the engine and five cars from the track, piling them up in a confused and broken mass. A. B. Stillwell of Wellsville, O., the engineer, was terribly scalded, and it is feared has received internal injuries. Elmer Ellsworth of Columbus, O., the colored cook, was killed outright. The passenger coaches containing the performers were uninjured, as were also the ears containing the horses Conductor Jordan, who was on the engine, escaped uninjured. Fireman Stillwell saved himself by jumping. The ears containing the wagons and other paraphernalia are complete wrecks, a loss to the circus firm of over $75,000. Ingalls Is a Liar. Detroit Free Press. The Free Prm pointed out, when the first hint was given, that Ingalls was shielding himself behind the pretense that he had attacked presidential candidates, not soldiers. His speech published in the Record settles this matter beyond cavil. What he said was: "We know why Hancock wit nominated. We know whv that other aliy of the. confffrntcy, George B. McClellan, was nominated, who had just declared that the war was a failure after he had been trying for two year to ma kr it to." By no use of language could this confessed expert in the use of language have made it clearer that be intended to charge that Hancock and MeClellan' w ere allies of the confederacy aud nominated on that account, instead, as he now pretends, that they became allies of the confederacy by accepting the nomination. When he makes that pretense he does what Senator Voorhees forcibly, if not elegantly, or in parliamentary language, said he did. Prison South Self-Sustaining. Mr. J. B. Batten, warden of the state prison south, is in the city to make .Ids report for the quarter ending April 30, 1SSS. His report shows receipts for the last three months to be j:l8,r02.34; expenditures, 17,724.78; excess of receipts over expenditures, $1,177.55. The above receipts are earnings of the prison. The receipts of the previous quarter of the fiscal year were $1 8,0.15.1 i, and expenditures $17,722.7S, leaving a balance of receipts over expenditures of $313-1o, making a total of !rl,4'.H).)i2. This is a grand show ing for the institution for the first half of the year, and demonstrates beyond a doubt that under the present management the institution is more than self-sustaining, as the report shows that large sums have been paid out for repairs and improvements, especially in the finishing of the chapel and constructing and fitting up of bath house, etc. Under Changed Conditions. Detroit Free Pres. Coming to Detroit on the train from Tort Huron we encountered a common specimen of the genus boy, who asked questions in a high key and was the torment of his parents. To everything that was said this specimen of youthful perseverance would drawl out: "Well I should snicker!" At last hi3 mother forbade him nsing the phrase again, declaring she would w hip him if lie did. But he was equal to the occasion, and climbing upon the top of the scathe bawled: "Then I shouldn't snicker!" At the Church Fair. Texas Sittings. Old Bachelor (to young lady at one of the booths) "Well, Miss Fanny, what have you cot that is useful to me? If you have anything I'll buy it." Young Lady "Here is a beautiful baby's rattle." "But yon know that I have no use for it, as I am unmarried." "Now don't begiu to make flimsy excuses." ' Five Years for Criminal Assault. COLUMnus, May 3. Special.

St. Peter "I don't know you went to the theater during Lent." Fair Gothamite " Yes, but I always took my hat otr." (And the angels lifted their voices in welcoming song.) The Effect of Sweetness. Texas Sittings. Griggs (onSixth-av. street-car) "I thought you got otf at Forty-second-st, Spriggs." Spriggs "I do, but when I got tip to leave, that pretty little thing w ith a new spring bonnet thanked me so sweetly for my seat that I am going to stand here and look tired all the way up to the park if I lose my dinner." Hugh Dougherty Is Still There. Columhla City Pout. Hugh Dougherty, of Bluflton, defeated candidate for auditor of state is a democrat of the right inctah He says there is not a sore spot on him, and that he is heart and soul for the ticket. This is w hat he should have expected Lad he been nominated.
THE FOUL-MOUTHED INGALLS.
A Snarling IngTate and Ilia Defilement of Honored Crave. Chicago Times. There are some crimes so base that they are unnamed and are spoken of even in the law aa "crimes without a name.' Humanity averts Its eyes and closes its ears against some relics of bestiality that yet lincer in some creatures stragging alon'T Ik hind the great column in its march upward. Such a one is that of which Ingalls was guilty. Would it could I fortrotten for the sake of American manhood. But it never w ill be forgotten in our age. Wherever there is a soldier or a soldier's son, so lone aa the glorious achievements and simple, plain, noble characters of McCh llan and lIaneo k are remembered, Ingalls will be recalled as tho snarling ingrato, t ho waited like a burker for death to help hiai dishonor the grave. If Ingalls had double his ability he could never recompense his party for the wrong he has done it. It would be well for his fame if it could be said of him, as of Dean Swift in his latest utterances, that they were due to insanity engendered by bivt temper. There is no such exhibition of the folly of uu,licensed hate as the snake which, infuriate, turns ujKin and stings itself. Swift, venomous to the last, did die as he predicted, "like a rat in Ids hole." Ingalls seems anxious to imitate him, and he will succeed much eltsier than in convincing any considerable number of Americans that Hancock and McClellan were allies of the confederacy. It is not necessary to agree with evcrvthinjr in Senator Yooriiees' burning speech l fore - awarding him hiirh credit for making it. He is a master of invective and he never had a lctter subject for it. He did his work, as he usually does, well. He scourged a snarling Thersitei whose bitter mou things have been endured so long that he thought he had a monopoly of that business. Because quiet men shrank from him he fancied all feared him, as thev did Randolph. Hut even lluilolh met hfs iuaten in '.Burgess and was benefitted. Yoorhees possibly has done even Ingalls a service. He certainly ha lone service to the country, to truth add ' justice, and should be honored of all men for, time!' work.
