G. A. R. Trouble in St, Louis.

Trouble is breaking out here, says Bt. Louis dispatch of Wednesday, over the recent Cleveland picture episode at Wheeling, an d i t now seems probable those scenes will be re enacted here during the national encampment of the Grand Army of the. Republic. A great many Democrats have expressed an intention lo bang the President’s picture over the streets in front of their .build ings, and doubtless the G. A. R. procession be given opportunity enough to go under or around it. Street comer discussions are frequent and warm, and the emDocratic papers of the city are having a dispute over it. One takes the ground that ithe army was invited here by the city, and that the soldiers should be treated as their guests, and nothing done by our citizens to cause them to regret their visit, and-expressed the hope that no Cleveland pictures will be flung to the breeze during the encampment. The other claims that the Grand Army -invited itself here; that it has treated the city shamefully in the Cleveland invitation trouble, and that in asking our citizens to haul down their Cleveland banners upon the arrival of the veterans it is asking what can not and should not be granted.

Fell Five Hundred Feet.

At the Mercer county, Mo., fair, Wednesday afternoon, Randall Bladely, a half-breed Indian, made a balloon ascension hanging to a trapeze bar. In the ascent the balloon shot up suddenly,giving Bladely a severe wrench on the bar,but he managed to hold himself updSj l a loop which he had drawn around his waist. After traveling about a mile and a-half, reaching an altitude of 2,000 feet, the balloon began to descend, but the poor fellow’s strength gave out, and w hen within 500 feet of the earth his grip relaxed, and he fell, lighting on his feet in a cornfield, his thighs being broken and driven into the trunk of his body.

INDIANA STATE NEWS.

Two named Darrow perished in a well near Wabash, Wednesday, being overcome with foul air. • A natural gas war prevails at Anderson and prices have been cut down until they are quite reasonable —about $4 per year for a heater and $5 for a cook stove. The largest crop of wheat ever sold in Wabash county was sold, Friday, by C. M. Engleman to W. A. El ward. It wag 4,072 bushels, all cut from one farm this year. , .. Gas well No. 6 was drilled into the Trenton rock at. Marion Friday, producing an immense flow of gas. Marion has now six gas wells of the first magnitude. Dr. Field, of Jeffersonville, married three couple in forty mjnjtes the other night, in short order. All dropped into his office without notice or knowledge of each other. The Salvation Army at Goshen was attacked by a gang of ’ roughs Tuesday evening. The leader was hit bn the head, knocked down and senseless. The one who hit the leader has not been found. Henry Pletcher,while blasting stumps in a field near Laporte, Wednesday, with dynamite, was blown to pieces Parts of the body were found eighty rods distant, hanging in the limbs of trees forty feet from the, ground. Suit has been tiled-by Mrs. Margaret Francisco against Ripley county in the sum of $6,000 for the death of her husband, caused by disease incurred in the county jail last winter while awaiting trial, He was acquitted, but died soon afterward.

The citizens of Evansville are becom-. ing restive under the delay in opening the new insane hospital at that city and are proposing to bind themselves to guarantee the expenses of maintaining the institution until the Legislature meets and has time to make necessary provisions. Cholera is raping among hogs in Paw Paw lownship, Wabash county. One farmer, Ananias Harmon, has already lost fifty animals, and the disease is still spreading. Stock raisers in the northern part of the county are apprehensive that the scourge has come to stay through the win'.- r, am 1 that is will rage even -more violently than last year, i .i/Att Joseph Wallace, a patient, recently died at the insane asylum. His brother last week charged his death to rough usage, saying the body was covered with bruises from being, beaten by attendants. The authorities demanded an investigation, and on Saturday Coronor Wagner, of Marion county, before whom an investigation was held, returned a verdict to the effect that Wallace had died from natural causes.

Charles Lawrence, of Edwardsport, Knox county, is in jail at Washington to await the eiirnit conri s’ tion on a charge of subornation of perjury. Three weeks ago Lawrence secured a license frem the clerk of the county to marry Rachel Hadden, the young daughter of J. R. Hadden, a prominent Knox connty farmer. The old man caught and locked up his daughter before the ceremony was per. formed, and has now jailed her lover for procuring some one to swear falsely to her age. The State Treasury continues in a depleted condition. Some of the counties have made pay ments in advance cf the December settlement, but these will have to be credited on the December settlement, which will keep the finances as low then as now. The State officers think they will be able to provide funds for the maintenance of the benevolent institutions, but for no other purposes. It is proposed to receive bids to furnish the new asylum at Logansport, but the officers say that they do not knowof a way at present to raise kinds to maintain it.

Friday a fire broke out in the magnificent abbey and college of the Catholic church at St. Meinrad, Spencer county, and despite the efforts of about one hundred men, the entire structure, together with most of ita contents, was destroyed. The building was a large four story brick, built in the form of a hollow square. The total loss will not fall short of $200,000. There was no insurance on the building nor contents. The college will be rebuilt at onee. The school term will begin on the 19th inst., and will be held in the former convent at Ferdinand, until the destroyed building is rebuilt.

Sharpers in New York are working Indiana on their old but peculiar game. They send a circular to the unsuspecting stating that a distant relative in New York hae just died, leaving the party a large sum of money. He is urged to go to New York at once, taking with him at least $250 to pay legal expenses, etc., after which tne game is worked in the same old way. Readers of this paper who have naid their subscription in advance are warned against this swindle. Those who have not paid their subscription may not need the warning, for they are little likely to have $250 or more. Anyhow, have nothing to do with such schemes . Had the last Legislature performed its duty the State House Commissioners would have had enough money to complete their wo*k audio cluse up the affairs of their office. As itr is there is some doubt as to whether they can wind up the the business of, the commission before the next Legislature con- '

venes. The building will be completed in November but the State will not be through with its contractors until more money has been appropriated. The commission has been under heavy expenses and doubtless the Commissioners will continue to draw salary until satis, factorytffcettlements can be made with all of the contractors. After Gov. Gray returned from Evansville last week he said ex-Warden Howard’s shortage had been exaggerated—that it would not exceed $9,000. Deputy Auditor of State Coons thinks differently. The brickyard account alone, Mr. Coons, says, was $14,030, and as he went through the books with the examining committee he should know. Then the salary item was also behind to the tune $7,700. And again, $4 000 that should have been in the convict savings fund has not been accounted for. The ex-Warden is also abort $33,000 on the appropriation of -80,000. Mr. Goons says that since Mr. Patten’s accession the prison Has been practically self-sus-taining. James Nickey, of Cherubusco, Ind., a passenger on the Wabai-h train Tuesday morning, discovered, as he was reaching Milan, Mich , that Le had been robbed of J 1,600 in'money, notes and bonds. At Milan four men left the train. Their actions were suspicious and an attempt was made by Wabash officials to arrest them, but after a long hand-to-hand encounter, in which two. town officials were badly hurt, the thugs drew revolvers and threatened to shoot if they were pursued further. Three of them succeeded in escaping to the woods, but the fourth who gave hisnameas Charles Moyer, a machinist, of Pittsburgh, was arrested. He had ssßin his pocket and all the utensils for conducting thimblerigging, or the shell game. A six-tbousand-dollar damage suit was filed at Shelbyville Friday by Samuel O. Ball, of Rush county, against Rev. James A Sargent, pastor of the M. E’. Church,.wh.ichhas_createdqulte_asensation. Ball charges that he was induced by Sargent in September, 1885, to trade him his farm in Rush county, worth $9,390, for 320 acres of land in Bourbon county, Kansas, representing that the land was first-class tillable land, with a good two-story house of four rooms, with two barns on it. Ball says Tie" wen tout there the ’lan worth not to exceed $1 per acre, with a one story one-room house on it, and no barns whatever. He makes other charges against Mr. Sargent in the same connection, ami says that he is now back at his old home . penniless. Mr. Sargent has not filed his answer yec, but his friends say it will completely exonerate him.

Governor Gray was interviewed while at Jeflersonyille prison, last week, on politics. (Among other things lie said: “The State is for Cleveland, and all the party leaders I have talked with Mre of the. opinion that. he. will be the. nominee in 1888. I think he is the most available man that could be chosen for that position. It is a mistake to suppose the Democrats of Indiana are opposed to the Administration. Indiana will be all right at the next election, and there will be a large Democratic majority. We lost the last time par dally because we had no organization, but mere on account of disaffection in the party. The Republican officeholders were being retired too slowly to suit most people, and then a great many of the appointments did not give satisfaction. The people bla med the Congressmen for theappointriieme, and this cause cost the Democrats 3,000 votes in the Fourth District alone.l’

KILLED IN THE CRASH.

■ Scores of Persons Are Held Immovable and Roasted to Death. Panl c in nn English Theater—The Weak ” Are" Beaten, Crunhed and Trainpltd— One Hundred and Thirty Bodie* Removed from the Ruins—Terrible Scene*. During the performance of “The Romany Rye” in the theater at Exeter, England, Monday evening, the building was discovered to be on fire. The audiepce became panic-stricken, and made a rush for the exits in spite of the heroic efforts of the attaches to reassure them and induce them to go out quietly. The opcupants of the pit engaged in an awful struggle for egress in the narrow aisles. Men and women were deliberately knocked down and trampled upon by those behind them, and hundreds of persons were almost entirely denuded in the terrible fight for life. The pit was finally cleared, but a large number of the occupants of that portion of the house were seriously injured, and presented a horrible spqc'aclc as theyreaeh ed tiie street. .

The occupants of the gallery did not fare so well. Theje was only one very narrow exit from the upper tier, involving the descent of a rather long flight of stairs, and here an almost indescribable scene of terror and slaughter ensued. The rush for the stairs was terrific, and in a monent the entire passage was blocked, those persons who kept their feet being supported by v solid mass of prostrate humanity. The shrieks, groans and curses of the imprisoned and the trampled, the wounded and the dying, were heartrending, but there was no relief, and in a moment scores of men and women were either suffocated or killed by being trodden upon. A fire escape- was at last brought to one of the gallery windows, and through this medium the pressure was relieved and a great many persons"were lowered to the street. As soon as the house had been cleared of the living the work of removing the dead was begun, and sixty bodies were taken out by means Of the fire escape. The wounded survivors were conveyed to the hospitals. The fire started in the flies, during the Tour th-act of the play. When the flames were discovered a drop scene was lowered to prevent the current of air from increasing the blaze. After this was done the actors and stage hands threw open a door to make their escape, when the draught caused the flames to burst through the drop scene and ignite the wood work of the gallery. The flames overtook the hindmost of the unfortunatepeople who were’wedged in the corridor and stairway, and literally roasted them alive, _ There

was no escape for them, the fire being at their backs, and a com pact, immovable mass of human beings in front. The firemen reached the upper windows and took out all the people they co uld find, but most of them were dead, and many others died soon after they were taken out. The surgeons in the hospitals revived a few persons who were thought to be dead from suffocation. Some of the dead were suffocated and not at all mutilated or burned. The occupants of the dress-circle escaped uninjured, the injured and dead being confined to the pit and upper circles. The building was destroyed. One hundred and thirty bodies have peen taken out of the theatre. Of these, one hundred were men and boys, and thirty women. A score or more of the injured were taken to the hospital and a large number were taken to their homes.

There is mourning in hundreds house at Exeter. Groups stands at •every corner ■ talking with' subdued voices. Many tales of wonderful escapes and frightful agony are narrated by eye witnesses. One man tells how he fought his way through the panicstriken mass of humanity, and climbed over it out into the air. All the time a woman was hanging on his back with her arms around his neck,almost strangling him. When he reached the light he discovered that the woman was his wife, whom he had left behind as dead. The man was frantic with joy. In an angle of the passage from the gallery the struggle to escape Was so furious that men and women fought and trampled each other down. The pressure of the mass in motion was so great that limbs were actually torn from the bodies of persons struggling to escape, but wedged in or weighted down immovably by the crush in that awful corner. t The victims were mostly working people. As soon as the flames were extinguished, a large force of men began searching for bodies. The stairway Idrding to the gallery was literally packed with bodies, while at the head of the stairs there were scores of others piled one on top of another.' The unfortunate victims had rushed to the door when the alarm was given, but found the stair way blocked and all means of escape cut off. In a short time the flames had reached them and they suffered a horrible death. There were pitifnlsceneßin the vicinity of the burned theater in the morning tims awaited the recoveries of the bodies. In many cases fathers and mothers both perished, and numerous children are thus left without means of supnort

7 . M.n v I'l" I --r • J .-.J H'l-IW everal of the bodies were burned so that only a small cinder remained. A man named Davis was in the gallery with his wife and child. At the outbreak of the fire he took his child in his arms and dragged his wife toward the exit, where he fell, suffocated by smoke and heat. He was found with his child beneath him, his wife lying by his side—all dead.

BEN BUTLER ON DECK.

He is Banqueted ar. Boston and Makes a Speech. He Favor* a Service Pension for Union Sol. dier*, and the Giving of What in I,eft to Ex-Confederates—He Shows No Loss of Vigor in Jits Remarks. The Butler Club,of Boston, banqueted Gen, B. F. Butler Thursday night, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the capture of Fort-HaUeras. A large number of the General’s friends were present, including Mayor O’Brien, Hon. George 8. Boutwell, Gen. Wm. Cogswell, Hon. N. A. Plymptop, Gen. Stephen Thomas, Gen. Cilley, Department Commander Nash. Corporal Tanner and many other well-known gentlemen. Gen. Butler in ’ a Hpeeeh advocated greenbacfeism, and i dec’ared that every theory of finance he i had. ever’held had eventually been adopted. He blamed the Democratic party for the accumulation of the vast surplus in the treasury and the impairment of the country’s businessinterests. The surplus ought to be used in paying service pensions to Union soldiers and after they had all been provided for the country should devote the surplus to administering to the interests of the disabled confederate soldiers. They were not to blame for the war, but only suffered fro n it. [Applause.] He advocated this in Congress seventeen years ago and been much a'oused for it. Corporal Tanner, the next speaker, heartily indorsed Ge eral Butler’s scheme for a service pension. He thought President Cleveland made a great mistake in. not going to St- Louis. If a few offered him the insult, the great mass of the Grand Army would take these men by the throat and silence them forever. [Great applause.] The Grand Army of the Republic, he said, will never refuse loyalty to the man who occupies the seat made immortal by Lincoln. Hon. Leopold Morse and others- also spoke, and let' <io read from General Slicin' ’ t •>• Mahone and other p' -tfiirvellous Recovery. A marvellous recovery is reported from Tolono, 111. Aug. 13 Frank McCann, an eight year old boy, was struck in the head with a baseball bat. \His skull was fractured j.ist below the brain line, and a considerable quantity of his brain excaped through the opening. ‘Eminent physicians pronounced the wound almost necessarily fatal, and wanted to perform an operation, blit the parentsohj' (tel. The little boy rallied, however, and is now apparently about as well as before the accident occurred. ——" - . - Ohio’s Oil Gusher. An oil well on the Foltz farm, twelve miles north of Findlay, was Monday and an immense flow of oil s tr UC k. The oil spouted up Ui a steady stream, sixty feet above the derrick, and could not be controlled for some time. When connected with tanks the oil filled four 250-barrel tanks in three hours. This is at the rate of 8,000 barrels per day, but it will probably drop to 5,000. It is the largest well in the Ohio field.
