Two Postal Clerks Killed Outright and Several Seriously Injured. The second section of the west-bound fast mail on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati A St. Louis Railroad was wrecked at New Cumberland Junction, near Steubenville, Ohio. Two men were instantly killed, one was fatally Mounded and eight others more or less seriously hurt. The train at the time of the accident was running at the rate . f sixty-five miles an hour. The track has been in bad condition ever since the flood of two weeks before, and such a high rate of speed has only been possible at great risk. When nearing the junction ou a sharp curve three postal cars left the track and went over the embankment, killing all but two of those in them. The list of killed and injured is as follows: Killed —J. H. Payne, Indianapolis, Ind.; John Rhinehart, Effingham, 111.; S. M. McFarland, Mansfield, Pa. Wounded—W. S. Belton, Newark, Ohio; Dick Armstrong, Indianapolis; J. E. Mathews, Indianapolis; Elmer Benner, New Comerstown, Ohio; J. AV. Bishop, Knightstown, Ind.; Frank Miner, Effingham, ill. ;A. E. Bailey, Minersville, Ohio; Mont Schtu-iz, Steubenville, Ohio. MeFuland and Scheetz are brakemen, rhe rest are all postal clerks. MARTIN BURKE INDICTED. Evidence Connecting the Winnipeg Prisoner with the Cronin Murder. Martin Burke, alias Delaney, arrested at Winnipeg for complicity in the Cronin murder, has been indicted by the special Grtv.’ Jury at Chicago investigating the case. The additional evidence needed to satisfy the Grand Jury was furnished by Hakan Mortensen, the Swedish expressman who transferred the furniture from 117 Clark street to 1872 North Ashland avenue. When the group picture of Irishmen around Tim Crean's monument in Mount Olivet Cemetery, taken at the time of its dedication, was shown him, Mortensen thought that Burke’s miniature was that of one of the men who hired him to transport the furniture. Then the photograph enlarged from this picture was shown him. and in regard to this larger photograph Mortensen was more certain. BASE-BALL BATTERS.

Pa rick Cooney Luder Suspicion by the Chicago Police. The Chicago police are looking for Patrick Cooney, and they w ant him badly, for he is believed to be “Frank Williams’ brother,” and implicated with Martin Burke in the Cronin murder. Cooney is a bricklayer, and also a member of the notorious Camp 20 of the Clan-na-Gael, and he is said to have left town ou the uight of Dr. Cronin’s funeral, three weeks ago. IN JAIL FOR MURDER. John Leavitt and Wife Charged with Cutting Their Children’s Throats. Mr. and Mrs. John Leavitt have been arrested at Lincoln, Neb., charged with murdering their two daughters. A few days ago Mr. and Mrs. Leavitt claimed to have found their children with their throats cut upon returning from a visit to Gresham. A Big Insurance Suit. Two years ago, at Memphis, Tenn., the Senatobi cotton-sheds were burned, and the insurance was paid promptly. The insurance companies, believing that the fire was caused by sparks from locomotives, have sued the Mississippi & Tennessee and the Louisville, New Orleans & Texas roads for $340,000, the amount paid under the policies. An Aged Woman’s Horrible Tale. Mrs. Charlotte Allen, aged 70, living near Washington, Ind., has confessed that in November, 1888, she murdered her husband, whose body was found tied to a tree, with his throat cut from ear to ear. It was supposed that the victim had committed suicide. Mrs. Allen says that quarrels as to the ownership of the farm led to the tragedy. A Family of Seven Poisoned. Mrs. Luther Dickey, of No. 270 Warren avenue, Chicago, and her entire family, consisting of five daughters and one son, were all poisoned by eating overripe raspberries, and so severely that one of the children will die, and the lives of two others are despaired of. Hanover Lowers a Record. On the Sheepshead Bay (N. Y.) track Hanover broke the record for five and one-half furlongs by 2 3-5 seconds, the record of 1:09. The crowd which saw the remarkable feat was small. EASTERN OCCURRENCES. The corner-stone for the new Welles College for Women has been laid at Aurora, N. Y. Among those present were Chief Justice Fuller and wife. John Gilbert, the actor, died at Boston. Mr. Gilbert was the leading old man pf the American stage, and has been before the public for sixty years. He was conspicuous in old-comedy parts, such as Sir Peter Teazle, Sir Anthony Absolute, and Hardcastle, and has been held as a model in his particular line. The vigor of his old age Avas remarkable, and the accumulated years failed to impair his mental grasp or dim his eyes, lie was born in Boston in 1810. Four Polish miners were terribly burned by anexp'osion of gas in the Nottingham mine of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal Company, at Plymouth, Pa., and it is thought they will all die from their injuries. Their names are: Michael Andrew, Simon Novalk, John Kutschki, and Joseph Taylor. The accident was caused by the ignorance of the men, who went into a chamber, which was filled with gas, without first testing the air. At the Sheepshead Bay (N. Y.) track, occurred the greatest event of the season in racing circles, the Suburban handicap, which was run under exceptionally favor-

able conditions of weather. The crowd present was estimated at 25,000 to 30,000. Two attemi is were made before the horses got off, and when the flag fell Volunteer led the way, followed by Gorgo, Ennis, Badge, Bella B. and Raceland. Garrison rode the latter, keeping him well in hand, but not using his whip during the entire race. On the homestretch he urged Raceland with his heels and hands, and the hitter, responding promptly, forged ahead, and came under the wire a winner by a length and a half, Terra Cotta second. Gorgo third. Time. 2:09 4-5. A fire started in Wallace’s machine shops, Jersey City, N. J., and spread to three buildings adjacent, all’of which were gutted. Loss on buildings, $70,000; loss on machinery and tools heavy. Huyler’s candy factory at New’ York was burned, throwing about three hundred people out of employment. Loss on stock, $25,000; on building, $15,000. At New York William E. Howard Avas found guilty of grand larceny in the first degree for obtaining $6,500 from the defunct Electric Sugar Company. WESTERN HAPPENINGS. Alexander Sullivan, who was under arrest for complicity in the Cronin murder, has been admitted io bail by Judge Tuley in habeas corpus proceedings. Bail was fixed at $20,000, which was forthcoming, and the necessary bonds having been signed the accused was liberated. Reports have been received of destruction in Kansas by storm and flood. Allen County has suffered severely from floods in the Neosho River and its principal tributaries, all the streams being out of their banks, flooding the bottoms for a mile or more on either side. There has been no loss of life or of live stock, as those living on the low land were warned in time, but hundreds of acres of wheat which was just ripening and promised a very large yield will be almost a total loss. The St. Louis, Wichita A Western Railroad bridge across Kock Creek has been undermined. Nearly a quarter of a mile of track has been washed from the bed, while the road has been seriously damaged. A largo number of small bridges and culverts along the wagon roads have been washed out. A violent rainstorm on the headwaters of the Walnut River caused an immense flood to reach Augusta and Eldorado. The waters washed away 1,506 feet ot' track for the Missouri Pacific, and carried away twelve residences. Four farmers were drowned a few miles north of Eldorado. East of Eldorado, on branches of the Walnut River, the Missouri Pacific lost six bridges. At Augusta 300 feet of Santa Fe track was lost and the bridge of the ’Frisco was carried away. Great damage was done to wheat in the rich bottoms. It is estimated that over a million bushels was destroyed. Reports from other places in the adjacent country tell of great damage to crops, and some loss of life. A portion of the scaffolding in the new cable power-house in course of erection at the corner of Milwaukee avenue and Cleaver street, Chicago, gave way, precipitating five workmen to the basement of the building, a distance of thirty-one feet. Oue of the victims died an hour after the collapse, one was so badly injured that he will die, and three others were seriously hurt. This is the second fall of this scaffold this month. Two weeks ago four men were injured by a fall from a height of fourteen feet. The injured are: Peter Doornbos, killed; Tony George, skull fractured, will die; Ignatz Sieroslowski, internal injuries; John Schultz, skull fractured and internal injuries; Joseph Maguelli, head bruised. Martin Burke, the young Irishman under arrest at Winnipeg as one of the murderers of Dr. Cronin, is perhaps the most impoitant "suspect" who has yet been placed under lock and key. His photograph has been identified by the Carlsons at Chicago as Frank Williams, the stranger who rented the cottage on North Ashland avenue, aud Hakan Mortenson, the expressman, as the man who employed him to carry the furniture from the flat at 117 South Clark street to the cottage. The final papers have just been recorded by which the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Company transfers to the Western Union its right and title to all property of every’ description. SOUTHERN INCIDENTS. A bloody affair has occurred at Given’s Store, eighteen miles southeast of Austin, Tex. It seems that a colored constable named Wilson undertook to arrest a white man whom he charged with horse theft. The man resisted and a fight ensued between him and his friends and the constable and his friends. Six-shooters were used freely and four white meu and two negroes were killed outright, whi'e at least a dozen other persons were wounded, some fatally. A disastrous wreck occurred on the Tennessee Coal & Iron Railroad near Birmingham, Ala., in which Walter Bearty and Henry McCauley, carpenters, were killed and nearly one hundred men were injured, some of them having limbs broken. None of the injured will die. THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. Preparations for the taking of the census of 1890 are assuming shaj The appropriations provide for 175 Supervisors, which is an excess of twenty-five over the number employed in 1880. This excess of Supervisors will goto the South and West, one each going to Oklahoma and Alaska. The Bureau estimate of the population is 65,000,000 for this census. Charles H. Litchman, ex-Genoral Secretary of the Knights of Lal or, has been appointed a special agent of Ilie Treasury Department with the understanding that he shall make special inquiry into the matter of alien contract labor and the observance of a violation of the statutes regarding the same. The contract for printing postal cards for the next fiscal year has Lieu awarded to the Biodix Printing Company at Washington. ACROSS THE OCEAN. It is asserted in London that the members of the Clan-na-Gael lommittee who signed the majority report finding Dr. Cronin guilty of treason to the organization and sentencing him io te "removed” were James J. Kogers, of Brooklyn, N. Y.; P. A. O’Brine, of I’itts on. Pa.; Christopher F. Brynes, of Saronville, Mass., and John D. McMahon, of Rome, N. Y. At Paris the great lace for the Grund Prix de Paris was run on the 16th. Vasistas won. Pourtent second, and Aerolite third. There were thirteen starters. Maypole, the favorite in file betting, came in sixth, with Kagan and Minthe just ahead of her, in the order named. The betting just before the race was 50 to 1 against Vasistas. POLITICAL PORRIDGE. Pennsylvania State voted on the 18th inst. on the question of the adoption of a constitutional amendment prohibiting the manufacture anil sale of intoxicants in the State, and returns from sixty-four of the sixty-seven counties of the

State give a majority of 164,165 against the amendment. The counties not yet heard from are Carbon, Clinton, and Elk. The State voted also on the question of the adoption of an amendment abolishing the poll tax, and forty-two counties, not including Allegheny -show a majority of 4,525 in favor of it. The rural districts have voted steadily against this amendment, and, unless the remaining counties show a marked change, the poll tax will remain in force. The New Hampshire Senate and House voted separately for a United States Senator and elected W. F. Chandler, the Republican caucus nominee. In the Senate the vote stood: Chandler, 18; Harry Bingham, 6. The vote in the House was: Chandler, 165; Harry Bingham, 137; L. F. McKey, 3; J. IL Gallinger, 1; D. Knowles, 1. FRESH AND NEWSY. The agreement between England, Germany, and the United States on Samoan affairs has been signed at Berlin. It will not be made publie until confirmed by the Senate. While it is called an agreement by officers of the State Department, Mr. Walker Blaine says that it will undoubtedly require ratification by the Senate, as it is a matter affecting the foreign policy of the United States. Thu agreement was cordially approved by all the members of the conference and by their respective governments. The best of feeling prevailed at the termination of the labors of the commissioners. The agreement guarantees an autonomous administration of the islands under the joint control of Germany and America, England acting as arbitrator in the event of differences arising. The Samoans are to elect their own King and Viceroy, and to be represented in a Senate composed of the principal chiefs and chambers elected by the people. Samoa is to have the right of levying duties of every kind. The treaty also stipulates that the Germans shall receive a money indemnity for their losses. A special court will bo appointed to deal with the land question. As the Americans made their adhesion conditional upon the ratification of the treaty by the United States Senate, the status quo will, therefore, obtain in Samoa until December. The Canadian Odd-fellows have rejected a motion making colored men eligible for membership in the order. The report of the Geological Survey Office for 1888, which has been made public, embraces the following statistics of importance: Iron and steel produets, valued at $140,000,000, a decrease as compared with 1887 of $26,103,000; gold, $33,175,000, an increase ot $75,000; silver, $43,000,000, being 10 per cent, increase; copper, 115,645 short tons, an increase of 20 percent.; lead, 180,555 short tons, about 20,000 tons increase; zine, 559,030 short tons, an increase ot 55,000 tons ; quicksilver. 33,250 tlasks, decrease of 510 Husks ; nickel shows a decrease of SIB,OOO in value; coal, an increase of 18,000,009 tons, an increase in value of $30,500,000. Total value of all metal products, $256,234,403; total ot all mineral products, $328,914,528 ; making a grand total of $591,659,931. R. G. Dun A Co.’s weekly review of trade says: The better feeling which was observed a week ago in the iron and steel and the woolen industries still continues, and improvement is now felt in prices as well as in magnitude of transactions. The news as to railroad ifroperties is more favorable., and earnings continue in ox cess of last year's. The general average of prices has again advanced a little. Reports from other cities indicate improvement in trade at Cleveland aud Pittsburgh, and in the wool and groceries trades at Philadelphia, but are otherwise but little changed. Colloctlous show no improvement on the whole. The glass trade is fair. For anthracite coal there is a better demand with reduced output. Ihe sales of southern iron continue large and prices of pig are lather lower. Breadstuff* are stronger. Less favorable crop reports are the pretext . probably excessive speculative sales are the cause. Pork products aud hogs are lower, but oil has advanced. The rise in law sugai continues, aud retlncd has been marked up No disturbance results in the money market from the heavy exports of gold, in part because during the week the treasury has paid out $3,690,090 more than it lias taken in. The business failures number 2>o as compared with a total of 225 the week previous. For the corresponding week of lust y t ar the figures were 232. THE CHOSEN FEW.

TIE TELLS A LONG TALE. WOODRUFF’S LATEST STORY OF THE CRONIN MURDER. Ho Implicates Those Under Arrest and Two Meu Whom He Calls McDougall and O’Shea Alexander Sullivan’s Nams Brought Into the Tale. Frank Woodruff, under indictment at Chicago for complicity in Dr. Cronin's murder has made another alleged confessii n, in which lie claims to tell the whole story of the critny. Briefly told, his story of the Cronin murder is as follows: lie says he came to Chicago March 26 and put up ut the Merchants’ Exchange hotel, South Wat r street. The proprietor got him a chance to work for a German gardener at 175 Southport avenue. He remained there four days, and becoming sick, on March 60 stared for the county hospital, but drifted to I*. O’Sullivan’s place in Lane park. Woodruff says he was a vohmt x r ou th ■ Canadian side during the Fenian raid, and a member of the 24th Kent battalion, whose headquarters were at Chatham. Ho then had an opportunity to leal n a great deal about Irishmen and Irish societies. As soon as he saw O’Sulli' van 1 e decided he was a Fenian an I commenced a conversation on the subject of the Fenian raid. O’Sullivan told him he wo dd get him some work if possible, but a day or so afterward ho (Woodruff} went to work at Dean’s livery stable. He says ho met Dan Coughlin first on Wells street in a saloon, and the second time on April 1 at the corner of Wells and Division streets. They started down town and had gone but two blocks when they mM O’Sullivan, the iceman. Two days late.- (April 3) Woodruff says he went into the rear room in Sol Van Praag’s saloon on Fourth avenue and found Coughlin and a man named MelvilL drinking there. An introduction followed and Melville gave Woodruff $3 and told him he might have some w. rk for him t« do. Woodruff says two days afterward (April 5) he went to McCoy’s hotel to see Melville, but did not find him, and on the way back, whi 0 going north, he met Coughlin and a man named McDougall in front of the Northwestern depot. Woodruff says he first mot McDougall during the Fenian rebellion, when the latter was on the American side of the river at Niagara. McDougall told Woodruif to call him “Williams. ’’ After a talk lietween Coughlin and McDougall the former went off anil the latter led B oodruff first on around through West side resorts and then, late at night, to the flat at 117 South Clark street. They slept together that night in the Hut and in the morning McDougall told Woodruif that it was best for him to go to Alexander Sullivan for work, intimating that the work was “crooked.” Accordingly the next day lie called at Alexander Sullivan’s office, but the intter gave him a very cool reception and told him that if he had any work for him to would toll Williams (McDougall.) The next day (April 7) Woodruff says he met Williamson a grip ear going north on the North Side and told him how Sullivan had repul.-ed him. They got off at Division street, and had walked but a block when t' ey met Alexander Sullivan. He talked with Williams and WoodrutT, and then took the former aside and talked to him in a low tone of voice and gave him some money. Woodruff says that Mr. Sullivan then asked his pardon for the repulse of the day before and gave him to understand that lie might need him for some work. Woodruff says he saw Williams aid Coughlin on April 30, and that each asked the w iu reubouts of the other. On the afternoon of May I, he says, Coughlin called nt Dem’s livery stable and hired him to carry a trunk and paid over $25. Woodruff then tells the story of the night of the murder much as ho told it to Chief Hubbard. He says he drove out on Lincoln avenue to Ashland avenue, and met “Williams" and “Melville.” He waited in front of the cottage while Williams aud Mellville, and P. O'Sullivan carried out the trunk. They drove to the lake shore with the trunk, leaving O’Sullivan behind to clean up the house. After leaving the body in the catch basin and the trunk on Evanston avenue they drove back past the cottage and saw a woman, supposed to be Mrs. Whalen, going out of the cottage in the re. •«. Woodruff embellishes the story with many detai’s. He says when P. O’Sullivan came out of the cottage with the trunk he had a paint brush in his hand. He says McDougall was a Philadelphia blacksmith and that Melville was a mechanic of some sort. He says he was sometimes known as O’Shea. lio says that Coughlin had him carry a letter written in cipher to Alexander Sullivan and that the letter read- “Going up to O’Sullivan’s.” Chief Hubbard says that he has thought for a week oast that Woodruff was the man w ho ditve the horse which carried the trunk away from th; Carlson cottage. Hisop nion ' not founde I entirely on W, odrull ’s tat >ments, as he I elieves Woodruff to io a polish <1 liar. As regards the otrer parts of the confession, Chief Hubbard says he took but little stock in them and he does not believe Woodruif knews anything about the details of the plot or the identity of the people engaged in it outside of the mai who employed him to carry the trunk away. State’s Attorney Longenecker relies upon the story of Woodruff as good eviiL nee. “You see,” said he, “that while Woodruff has not told anything very new he has reaffirmed the confession that he made to Chief Hubbard and supported it by many circumstances known to us before. On the whole I think we may consider his confession as pretty near the truth about this business. He tells us that he was sick for two weeks with the old German at 115 Southport avenue; that he went to P. O’Sullivan’s for work; that he staid at the American Exchange hotel and that he received . loney from the American express company. He “dis where ho met Coughlin and O’Shea ami McDougall, and in short at every point in his inrrative he supplies those litil detail which when verified prove the truth of a large part of the story.” “Do you know anything about O’Shaa or McDougall ” “I never heard of O’Shea. McDougall, I think is known to Dillon. ’ “What do you think of what Woodruff says al oat Aelxander Sullivan:” “It is characteristic of Sullivan to have told Woodruff that he di I not Know him and that he ha tno work for him to do, but it seems improbable that Sullivan paid money to the murderers ” HIPPOLV I I. NOT A VFCTOK. The Story that His Anny Had Captured I’ort an I’rincc Not Tfiih, New York, June 17.—The denial of the report that Hippolyte, the Hay tian insurgent general, had captured Port au Prince, is confirmed by Johannes Hanstedt, t o representative of Hippolyte in this city. Mr. Hanstedt said that at the time the report of the capture of Port au Prince was received at this city, via London, he knew that it was untrue. Hippolyte, however, is with his army within a few miles of Poit au Prin e, and a movement is now on foot that will probably result in either Port au Prince falling into the hands of the northern soldiers or their receiving a bloody repulse. Mr. Hanstedt says he is in receipt of information that Legitime is in a very weak-kneed condition and desires to abdicate, but is prevented from doing so by his generals. The United States man-of war Kearsage left the Brooklyn navy-yard dock at 10 o’clock Sunday morning bound ior Portau Prince, Hayti. Anchor was weighed immediately after Commandant Ramsey and Admiral Gherhardi went on board. The officers and crews of the Atlanta, Galena, and Caicago cheered the vessel off ou her journey.
