BENJAMIN IIAS DEPARTED.

BUT INDIANAPOLIS STILL REMAINS. Tit PrlAn-Elct Goi To (TaaMartoa Fader the KspeOal Anspieea of the Pennsylvania RailroadA Demonstratloa la Ills Honor Soma Incldeate. Tuesday's SentlneL Gen. Harrison has left town. He went yesterday afternoon. Washington ia his destination. There, by the aid of J. O. Blaine, he will be president for four years, and then he will come home to stay. The appearance which the city presented yesterday was strongly suggestiTe of campaign times, when big speakers came to town and the two parties had processions. Flags and bunting were flung to the breeze from business houses and residence. Washington and S. Meridian-st and indeed the whole line of Mr. IUrrison's journey to the depot, were enough to recall a festal holiday. A large crowd collected in front of the Harrison residence some time before the departure of the presidential party. Cariosity WU at itl highest. The appearance of any personage at ft window or the ring of the door bell by a caller would elicit a hundred interrogations at to the relationship of the indiridual to the president. A lino of carriages toon arrived end stood waitin Gen. Harrison'a pleasure. Fifty or more private Tehicles choked the street- The crowd grew larzer with each moment, when suddenly the presence of Sergt. John Lowe was felt in the yicinity. With a trusty lieutenant and a flashing red, white and blue handkerchief lifting itself out of his side pocket, he dashed back the crowd with a ware of the hand and opened the way through the chain of carriages. Meanwhile all was bnsy preparation in the tousebold. Gen. Harrison strapped his valise end looked after the grandchildren. Secy. Hai ford bustled about with the apprehension, eeemingly, that the train would go off and leave him. Mrs. Harri-on 6at in the parlor ready and wailinsr for the word from the general that it was time to start. A few intimate ladr friends dropped in and bade her and Mrs. McKee good-bye. "I am so plad you have corae," ehe snM to one of thera, "good-bye." After a few more band-boxes and a doll carriage had been carried out to the transfer wazon by Charles Lanier, Gen. Harrison's old barber (who by the way will go to Washington to continue his vocation on Gen. Harrison's beard). Gov. llovey, the Hon. William II. English, Albert Gall, William Henderson and Lieut.-Gov. Chase entered the residence and the crowd grew eagerly expectant. It did not have long to wait. Avery enterprisinz photographer, who has been seen before abo it the residence on big occasion?, drew np his camera in the yard and leveled it at the door. lie could not have guessed better If he had been a prophet, for at that very moment Gen. Harrison was seen at the door. "Snap" went the machine and the work was done. Geo. Harrison lifted his hat in response to a faint cheer from the crowd as he made his wy to hia open carriairt, William II. English and Gov. llovey occr.pyiniT the carriage with him. The presidentelect wore his ordinary black suit and a pink and white necktie. The next carriage was occupied by Albert Gall, J. M. Scott, brother of frs. Harrison, and Private Secy. Halford. Followine was the Harrison coupe containing Mrs. Harrison and her sister, Mrs. Lord. They each carried bouquets. Mrs. Robert 8. McKee and the two children and nurses occupied the lift of the four carriages. It was 2:30 o'clock when the start was made from the residence. From all the houses in the vicinity flaars and bunting flapped and waved as much a to nay, "Fare ye well. Gen. llarrison-ah !" The neighbors were at the doors and windows and a the carriage passed, they waved their handkerchiefs a "Fare ye well. Gen. Harrison ah!" The fine shepherd dog w Lieh has frisked about many callers in the last few months objected to being left behind and howled a dismal "Fare ye well. Master llarrison-ah!" The carriages were driven down Delaware-st. to t ort Wayne-ave., thence down to Pennsylvania, continuing south on the same street. People lined the streets all along and silently pazed at the presidential party or ventured a feeble cheer. The hi.'h school, corner of Pennsylvania and Michigan-sts., had been adiourned and the two or three hundred pupils Lurrahed for Harrison, who lifted his hataud smiled a "fare ye well, dear child ren-ah!" At the Denison house the formal escort was drawn up. The Geonre H. Thoruas post. Gen. Harrison's cr.mmandery, II. C. Allen, commander, took the honor of beim; the immediate escort. The procession had for some time been formed when the presidential party drove üp. On the instant the command "iorw:ird' was given. Capt. Campbell and Sergt. Dawson, with a platoon of police, led the van and cieared a way, the streets in this vicinity beinj well packed with spectators. The Brotherhood band (colored) strick up "Hail Columbia," and Gen. Harrison w as on his way to the depot. The crund army post followed immediately. Nearly every cowniandery in the city was represented in the march and quite soldier were in line. The Delanay (colored) jo9t followed. Several members of the Indiana senate came after. .S cheer was started wish the moving of the procession that was continued with more or loa volume all the way to the depot. Amone the prominent followers of the general's etrmire were Col. Cridgeland, Dan Jlansdell, Moses Mcljiin, Gen. Lew Wallace, "W. P. Fibhbaek, the Her. Dr. Lucas and others. As the carriage containing Mrs. Harrison rounded into Washington-st. a dapper young roan stepped to it and presented her with a most beautiful bouquet calla lilies and larce white and red roses predominating. She received it very graciously. It was a present from the Floral company of the city. The greeting given the presidential party on B. Meridian-st. apprnacbecl nearer an ovation than any other manifestation on the line of march. Large flaes were suspended from the windows of nearly all the wholesale houses. The windows were alive with waving handkerchiefs and interested faces, while the crowds that lined both sides of the street kept up a respectable cheer. A large flag, slowly rising and falling over Meridian-st., near Georgia, deferred the column into Georgia, and thence to the dejK)t. The jam in the vicinity of the station was preat. A crush around the president's carriage, however, was prevented by the maneuvers of the escort. The grand army post opened its lines and the carriages followed by the state senators passed between them. Police kept back the crowds from the door of the station. When the carriage was halted at the steps Gen. Harrison was helped from it by Councilmaa twain. The grand army then broke ranks and the surge in and around the station began. The president-elect. Gov. Hovey and Mr. English passed rapidly through the station, but the passing through the gates to the train was not so easy a matter. Hundreds pressed, in and around the elegant private car and the tumult and noise were almost deafening. Gen. Harrison had intended to make a speech. While he stood on the steps of the car he pulled a roll of manuscript from his pocltet and tried to read. He lifted his hand to quiet the crowd and proceeded. The crowding, pushing and shoving w so ereat that, pins remonstrances and comments from everybody, prevented the president-elect from being heard but a few (set away. He said: My Goon Kkiexds aid Neighbors T cannot trust mrf If to put In words wbt I feel at thl time. Kvcry kial thought that is in your nuLli and every (rood wish that is in your hearts for me finds its rer.nle wish and thoneht in my mind aud beart fr each of you. 1 lore thi city. It hau been ir.y one cherished home. Twice before I have left it to d iu t.ar'e cuHic duties and returned to it with giadnts. a I boje to do aeain. It is a city on whoe streeta the om pons displays of wealth are not en. It is full of pleasant homes, and in thoie homes there is an unusual store of contentment. The memory of your favor and kindness will abide with tue. and ray tron desire to hold yon r respect and confidence III sir njthen ine in the discharge of raj new and responMbie dutios. Let me say farewell to all my Indiana friends. For the public honors that tare come to me, I am their grateful debtor. Thv hare made the debt so lare that I can never discharge it. There is a great senenf Unebne in the discharge of high public duties. The moment of decimon is odd of isolation. But there is One whute help com even into the qniet chamber of judgment, and to His wise and unfailing guidance I will loos for direction and safety. My famiiy unite with me In grateful thanks for this eordittl good-bye, and with me wish that these years of separation may be full of peace and happiness for each of you. Gen. Harrison had hardly finished his remarks before the bell ran?, and the train started. As the ereat iron horse snorted and moved out of the depot the president-elect bowed and entered the car, and Mrs. Harrison wared her hau J. The republican ofiioe-seekera

who were left behind waved a "Fare ye well, President Harrison-ah! but we'll see yon soon again-ah!" The presidential party had left Indianapolis, and the excitement of months was over. W ashes GTOX, Feb. 2b The special train with Gen. Harrison and party on board drew up on the track alonz side the freight house at at Ninth-st. and Maryland-ave. at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon. At this point the executive committee of the inaugural committee was waiting with carriages for the travelers. The train was run to this point in order to escape the crowd that had gathered at the Siith-st station, and the ruse was successful, albeit several hundred shrewd curiosity-hunters were drawn to this spot by the - appearance of the carriages. With as little delay as might be, Gen. Harrison and party were seated in the carriages and then driven rapidly to the Arlington hotel, where they at once sought the private of their apartments. The others on the train were sent to their several destinations in the city after good-byes had been said, and the trip of President-elect Harrison to the capital was at an end. It had been accomplished in twenty-three hours and eighteen minutes without a single mishap and with great comfort. The big van, piled high with trunks belontrinj? to the Harrison party, did not arrive at the Arlington hotel sooner than the first visitors to see Gen. Harrison. Private Secy. Halford received all callers and, except in a few instances, no one was permitted to see the president-elect. It was announced that Gen. Harrison would pee no persons except a few intimate personal friends until 7:30 p. in., at which time he would give a reception of an hour and a half to callers. Sergt. Dinsmore, who was for a long time doorkeeper at the white house, guards the street entrance to the Johnson annex, in which the party are quartered, and sends cards to Scey. Halford. About half past 4 o'clock, Maj. Pruden came over from the white house with a note from President Cleveland to President-elect Harrison. At both the white house and the Arlington it was said that there was no objection to stating the contents of the letter, but both Col. Lamont and Mr. Haiford referreJ all who inquired in regard to it to the other. It is probable that it was simply a letter of courtesy from President Cleveland offering to render any assistance in his power that would contribute to the comfort of the incoming president. Gen. Harrison and Mrs. Harrison will call by appointment at the w bite house to-morrow. The senate inaugural committee, consisting f tnatora Hoar, Cullom and Cockerell, called on the president-elect soon a;'ter his arrival and talked over matters connected with the inauguration ceremonies. About ä o'clock Mr. J. G. Blaine paid bis respects and spent a short time with the general. After dinner Gen. Harrison and his son-in-law, Mr. McKee, went out for a walk through tb northwestern portion of the city. In the evening Gea. Harrison and ladies of his family received a number of Cillers in the parlors of the Johnson annex. Among them were Senators Evarts, Dolph and tjpooner: representatives Steele (Ind. ), and Grout (Vt.l, ex-Postmaster General Tyner, Maj. Gen. Schofitld and Dr. Baxter of the army. THE CALIFORNIA TRAIN ROB3ERY.

Stories of Two Tramps Who Were Eye TVItnessea of the Affair. TtTARE, CaL, Feb. 24. On the receipt of intelligence last night of a train robbery at Pix ley, a special car was at once ordered to carry officers to the scene of the robbery and in a short time ten officers were on the ground where the tragedy had taken place. A pool of fresh blood was found several yards from the track where one of the unfortunate passengers had been shot down. There were indications that horses had recently been hitched to one of the telegraph poles near by. Two tramps were found who told the followine story: "We were waiting for the train to ride to Pixley and saw two men who seemed to be waiting for a train. We went up and talked to them. They acted iu a peculiar manner. It was so dark that we could not tell how they looked, but think both were good-sized men. Hoth wore overcoats and wore white shirts. One had clothes sdmnely perfumed; both had ßhotfuns or what appeared to us to be shot-cuns. 'hey asked us where was a cood place to get en the train. We told them and asked them where there were going. They said to Delano to shoot jack-rabbits. We asked them w hat was the matter with shooting jack-rabbits at Pixley. One of them said he hal a ranch at Delano. Just then the train came alone: and the men jumped on the front part of the engine." One of the tramps continued: ''Somethinar seemed to warn me that all was not all rieht. As the train passed a third man jumped out from somewhere and boarded oneot the passenger cars. I felt uneasy. and walked over to the depot and told some one what had happened. I was only laughed at. but it was not long till we heard what had happened." The tramp who was riding on the baecagecar said: "The train commenced to slow up when we trot a short distance beyond Pixley. When it bad nearly stopped I discovered there was trouble of some kind and jumped or?. When they commenced thootinir I ran and jumped a fence and laid down in the field near by. I heard some one say: 'My God, 1 am killed,' when the shooting occurred, and then I heard another exploion cf some kind. When the robbers ha I gone 1 slipped out and got among the passengers. "One of the men shot had his tide torn all to pieces with buckshot. When the train backed up to PixlcT one of the passengers claimed he saw a man fallsomedistance back on the track. The train went back and we searched for the man. We soon found him. He had evidently been in-uintly killed. Th? shot entered near the tenij!e. lie had a ticket for Poso." From the people of Pixley and other sources it was learned that as soon as the express messenger found out what was the trouble he barred the doors of the car but the robbers threw a bomb under it and gave him such a shading up that he was glad to open the door. The amount taken is variously estimated, some placing it at from IoO,(iCJ to $60,000. The men are searching the country, though there is no clew as to the di.-cotion taken by the robbers. NATURAL GAS EXPLOSION la m Water Works Tunnel Severely Injures Kifht Men. Cikvklakd, O., Feb. 23. Natural gas in the new water works tunnel exploded about noon to-day.

EARTHQUAKE SHOCKS. Peculiar Noises and (shakings of the Farth In Northern Indiana. WABASH, Feb. 2i Special.! Advices from Wabash, Huntington and neighboring counties are to the effect that peculiar rumblings and slight earthquake shocks w ere felt to-dny,about an hour before noon. The noises were very loud at times and the shocks lasted several seconds. A rather' Fiendish Act. Dickinson, D. T., Feb. 2C One of the most sensational tragedies ever known in North Dakota occurred to-day, two miles from here. John Holler, a German, lived with his wife an J five children on a claim two miles from town. He and his wife quarreled, and he threatened to take the lives of the whole family. This morning his wife left him, going to a neighbor's for safety. Her husband followed a short time after, carrying a rifle. Dy threats of general mnrder he drove the others from the house and then deliberately murdered his wife, firing two shots into Ler. He then placed the muzzle of the gun against his left temple and blew the top of his head oft. Before following his wife when she went to the neighbor's, he locked his five children in the bonse and deliberately set fire to it as well as to his grain stacks, hay and barn, in which considerable farm machinery was stored. Alter his departure the children managed to escape, and are now cared for by friends. ckme years ago Holler killed a farmer's wife in the Fast and three years kso was accused of burning his house to obtain the insurance. The tragedy of to-day created the most intense excitement, but the county was saved the disgrace of a lynching.

HURLED INTO ETERNITY.

TERRIFIC EXPLOSION IN A FACTORY. The Entire Building niown to Pieces and Nearly Twenty Girls and On Man Perish In the Ilulns The Cause ot the Disaster a Mystery. Wilkesbaeke, Pa., Feb. 25. A terrible disaster occurred at Plymouth, a few miles from here, this afternoon, by which the souls of nearly twenty girls and one man were hurled into eternity. Back of the Gaylord shaft stood the factory of John Powell, used for the manufacture of squibs, used by the miners in loosening coal in the mines. The factory employed eighty-four girls, ranging from twelve to twenty years in aire, and several male workmen. While the majority of the girls were at their homes eating dinoer the people were startled by the deafening thunders of a terrific explosion. They rushed terror-stricken to their doors and windows and in the distance saw clouds of smoke ascending from the squib factory. Soon a large crowd gathered around it, and women began wringing their hands and men turned away from the sijfht presented when the charred body of a young girl was seen lying in one of the rooms, and the fact became known that at least twenty persons were n the building at the time of the explosion, eating their noonday lunch. The scene was fraught with terror, as the girls, some of them bleeding, others gasping for a few breaths of fresh air, rushed to the windows and screamed frantically for help. About this time a dozen miners from the adjoining colliery came upon the scene, and as soon as they saw the bleeding forms of the girls, called for aid and rushed toward the building in a body, but fate prevented their proffered succor. As soon as they stepped near t!e door another terrific explosion took place and the entire buildins collapsed, burying in the ruins the forms that a moment before stood crying for assistance. The braver of the men, when the smoke and flyini; debris had settled, rushed among- the ruins and one by one the bodies were found and taken out, c!iarred beyond recognition, bleeding and mangled. As mothers aw and recognized some familiar token or niece of dress by which they could tell their loved ones, the scene was one that represented the extreme throes of sorrow and destruction. The bodies, as fast a they were taken out, were removed to an undertaking establishment an J placed in a row. Their features were so bii'lly mutilated that they were senrceiy recognizable. The killed, SJ far as known, are: KATK JONES, aged 18. MAGGIE LYNCH, aged 21. HETTIE JONES, aged lo. G LA DDIS UEESE, aged 15. MA11Y WALT KB, aired 17. MAGGIE RICH AilUS, aired 17. MAIIY A. LAKE, aed 17. EUril POWELL, aged 10. ESTHER POWK Linage! 2i JKSSIE CONNELL, aged 16. JANE THOMAS. CHARLOTTE HUMPHRIES, aged seventeen. At the main entrance to the factory the remains of five of the girls were found. They must have evidently made an effort to get oat alter the first explosion, but were caught in the debris bei'ore they could reach the door. Not one of the ladies was recognizable. Some had their heads blown oil; others their arms, and a majority were minus both legs and arms. The arrival of the relatives of the dead added confusion to the scene. Their cries were heart-rending and pitiable, and what made it moro pathetic was the fact that mothers aud sisters were unable to recognize their own dead. After working for hours the rescuers succeeded in getting out all the remains, which consisted of trunks, arms, legs and skulls. Every one in the building at the time of the explosion perished, with the exception of Foreman Reese. He was standing at a stove when the first explosion took place. lie rushed for the door to notify the girls when the second explosion knocked him down in the basement. He managed to crawl out of this pluce. The cause of the explosion is a mystery. Towell says the squibs piled iu a box must have exploded from spontaneous combustion. He says be never allowed any large quantities of powder in the building. When powder was wanted it was taken from the magazine 10 yards away. Experts, however, claim that there must have been powder in the building or the force of the explosion would not have been so great. There were three stoves in the buiMin?. It is stated that on several occasions the girls, in order to have a little tun, would place powder ou a stove "just to see it s-hoot oft." John Powell, the proprietor, was badly injured. Business in the town of Plymouth is at a standstill and a deathlike pall hangs over the community. ELEVEN MEN DROWNED. A Vensel "Wrecked O IT ilia Const of North Car-'linsi. ' Norfolk, Vs., Feb. 2;. The Nova Scotian bark, Josie Troop, with a cargo of chalk and a crew of seventeen men, was wrecked at 7 o'clock lat evening at Chicamicomico, N. C. The master and ten men were drowned. Six were saved. The vessel and carco are a total loss. The vessel is broken up and strewn on on the beach. The cause of the disaster was miscalculations, owing to the thick weather which made it impossible to get accurate lights and bearings. The crew of the life-saving station No. 1!, could see no signs of the vessel until the eleven men had been lost, and were jut in time to save the six survivors. Thus far only one body has come ashore, that of Charles Medea. Following is the list of saved and lost: Saved Rooert Hunter, chief mate; Edward Harris, steward ; Albert Williams, A. Brown, Walter Cauley and C. Anderson, seamen. IvOPt CA IT. W. G. COOK. C. H. SCINHALD, carpenter. II. K. CHRISTINEN. J. R RUTH DEUSEN. THOMAS MeCOY. GEORGE WILLIAMS. HARMON ADERSON. JOHN COFFIE. CHARLES MEDEA. JOHN ROGERS. J. JOHNSON, seamen. Albert Williams was badly injured abont the neck and is being attended by the physician at the station. DUDLEY BADLY SCARED. His Friend, Mlchener, Warns Him of an In. tended Arrest. Washington, D. C, Feb. 22. Special. It is a matter of quiet talk here that W. W. Dudley, of the famous blocks-of-five-letter, is in immediate danger of arrest. It is remarkable that he knew about it sooner than anyone else, and as soon as he received the information he took one or two friends into his confidence! Atty. Gen. Michcner" gave him very prompt information almost forty-eight hours ago. Dudley had been known r.'l through the campaign, among the faithful few, as "No. 3." When Michener teletrraphed him from Indianapolis the warning difpatch as late as last Wednesday, he told him that a warrant had been issued for the arrest of No. 3 by Commissioner Van Euren, and that he must either furnish bail in Washington or return to Indiana and do it. A FREAK OF MEDICAL SCIENCE. Kalsintr Rabies of Pitmatnre Itlrth liy the Aid of n Merhnntcat Inetib.-tor. PniLADELrniA, Feb. 22. Raising babies of premature birth by the aid of a mechanical incubator is the latest freak of medical science at the woman's hospital, N. College-nve. and Twenty second-st. For the first time in this city this process was put to a practical test ten days ago when Florence Ryal, an eicht months child, was wrapped in swaddling clothes and placed in the incubator. The baby is thriving nnderthe process and apparently enjoying the best of health. Slie weighed at the time of her birth about three pounds, or one-half the weight of an average new-born child. The incubator has raised the baby's weight up to five pounds within ten days. She rests in the incubator constantly, except when taken out to receive nourishment or is given a sponge bath. The former operation occurs three times a day and the latter twice.
