ABOUT IMMIGRATION DEMAND FOR A REVISION OF the laws. Great Increase in the Value of Land that Mißht Be Brought About by Proper Irri-gation-Importance and Value of River and Canal Transportation. Tho subject “Transportation and Improvements of Waterways, Lake, Gulf, and Pacific Forts” was discussed at the Commercial Congress in Kansas City. Mr. S. A. Thompson, Secretary of tho Commercial Club of Duluth, advocated the improvement of waterways as affording the cheapest transportation. Col. T. C. Catchings, of Mississippi, argued that an increase in water traffic, however great, would not decrease railroad business, but would rather increase it

The Hon. J. M. Murphy, of lowa, spoke on tho Hennepin Canal. His life had one purpose and his heart one hope, and that was the construction of tho Hennepin Canal. He explained in along speech the benefits to accrue from the construction of the canal, and ho had no doubt that the Government would construct it if Congress could be brought to a realizing sense of the canal's importance. Col. A. C. Fish, of Denver, delivered an address upon irrigation. He said 900,000,001) of people wore kept alive on food raised on irrigated land in Spain, China, Egypt, Russia, India, and the United States, yet the subject of irrigation, although carried on successfully for hundreds of years, was but little understood. In the trans-Mississippi country enough land was allowed to go to waste that was susceptible of cultivation to support whole nations of people. The work of irrigation has already been begun by the United States. Mr. Powell estimated that there were 1,000,000 square miles of arid lands in the Western country that could be made productive by irrigation. At the minimum price of public land, 51.25 per acre, this land had a value of §800,000,000. At S3O per acre, a moderate estimate of its value when irrigated, it would be worth §19,200,000,000. Mr. Wickliffe said he would treat his subject, “Immigration and Settlement of Public Lands,” from tho text, ‘'America for Americans. ” “We have been told,” he said, “that this land is broad enough for all, but I submit that the countries of the other world have made it the dumping ground for their paupers and criminal classes, and I believe that I speak for the whole American people when I say that the time has come when all that must stop. There is enough room for all who want to come here to be one of us, but not a foot of ground for one of those paupers and criminals ■ of the old world. I may feel deeply upon the subject, but I have lately come fresh from a most terrible object lesson, which too clearly indicates the need of a change of our immigration laws. “I believe that this congress ought to declare that the National Congress should prohibit the landing of immigrants who are not willing to become good citizens. I think this law ought to be put into such shape that no man who has not within a given time filed his intention for citizeniiip, which is now altogether too short, and who lias not within another given time taken out what is known as his second papers, ought to be shipped back to the country from which he came. Gentlemen, it took twenty-one years to make a voter out of each one of you; it does not take twenty-one seconds to make a voter out of a foreigner. Let no man step foot upon the soil of Columbia who cannot bring a true bill of moral cleanliness. I am. as you knot?, a State-rights Democrat, but I believe the power to make American citizens ought to be taken from the State courts and given to tho General Government. Perhaps you do not realize the need of all this, but in looking up the nationality of those criminals whom the citizens of New Orleans executed not long since it was found that the naturalization papers of one of these, his certificate of good moral character, was certified to by two of his fel-low-criminals. I believe that the scenes which we have witnessed during the last few weeks ought to be impossible. The raising of the g orious stars and stripes under that of a foreign flag, as was done in my own State, and the riddling of our flag by bullets in Pennsylvania, very clearly indicate the need of a change of policy as regards our immigration laws.” A resolution favoring free coinage was received with applause. A resolution relative to immigration was loudly applauded, and the resolution which hailed with delight the burial of all animosities between the North and South was greeted with great applause, and, upon motion of Major Warner, of Missouri, was given three hearty cheers. The congress then adjourned to meet at the call of the Executive Committee. This and Tha‘. The disappearance of dyspepsia as a national disease proves that Americans have improved in their eocoking.

NINE MEN MEET DEATH. • DISREGARD OF ORDERSCAUSES THE CALAMITY. An Express and a Mail Train Crash Together, Almost Instantly Killing Ueth Engineers and All the Mail Clerks —The Names. Edward Brown, engineer, Toledo, Ohio. Charles Topliff, engineer. Toledo, Ohio. F. .1. Nugent, postal clerk, Toledo, Ohio. Charles Hammill, postal clerk, Elyria, Ohio. F. F. Clemens, postal clerk, Cleveland, Ohio. John J. Bower fine, postal clerk, Elyria, Ohio. James McKinley, postal clerk, Conneaut, Ohio. C. 11. McDowell, postal clerk, Elyria, Ohio. Staley, fireman.

5 These men were instantly sent, to eternity by the frightful carelessness of , some one—of whom it is not known. At Kipton station, a little place on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern road, forty miles west of Cleveland, Ohio, the fast mail bound east collided witli the Toledo express just as the latter train was about to pull on the siding to let the fast mail pass. The latter was running at full speed, and the force of the collision was so great that both engines, three mail cars and one baggage-car were completely wrecked. None of the passenger cars left the track, ami none of the passengers received serious injuries. It was the custom for these two trains to pass at Kipton, the Toledo express . taking the side track for the fast mail, which usually wont through Kipton without slackening its speed. The Toledo express was a few minutes late, and had Just come to a stop at the switch when the fast mail came in sight. There is scarcely any curve at the station, but on one side of tho track was a lino of freight ears ami on the other the station. These might have obstructed the vision of the engineer of the fast mall. He applied the air-brakes when he saw that a coll sion was inevitable, but the speed of the train was not che’i'-'d materially. Tho engine of the To. o express was knocked squarely ae ss the track, and that of the last mail reared in the air, resting on top of tho other. The fast mail consisted of three mail cars and two parlor ears, and tins Toledo express of five coaches and two baggage cars. Tho first and second mad cars were telescoped and smashed to kindling wood, and the third crashed into the first two and rolled over on tho Station platform, breaking the windows of the building. The two baggage ears of the Toledo express were knocked from the track, but did not turn over. The force of the collision was so great that of the sixty-four revolving-chairs In the two parlor-ears only four remained attached to the floors, all the others being broken and hurled about In confusion. The passengers were thrown to the floors and badly shaken. The passengers of tho two trains at once began the work of rescue, and with a corps of physicians from the town ministered to the few who were injured. All but one of the dead were beyond human assistance as soon as the collision occurred. The bodies were all horribly crushed and mutilated, arms and legs being torn off, and tho corpses were almost beyond recognition. Charles Topliff, the engineer of tho fast mall, remained bravely at his post, and was found dead with his hand on the throttle. His hands and face were so badly scalded that the blackened flesh dropped from the bones when his body was taken out. The poor postal clerks had not a . chance to escape. They were caged like rats, and tho telescoping of the car । crushed the life out of them without a । moment’s warning. When tha passengers who were on tho fast mail arrived at Cleveland they ; brought the first authentic account of the wreck, there being no correspondents or other facilities for getting the news from Kipton, which is a mere hamlet. These passengers say that the cars and i locomotives were piled In a heap higher , than the station. It is difficult to locate the blame for the accident, as both of the engineers , are dead. It is said, however, that the express was ordered to stop at Oberlin, but went on to Kipton, which is six miles farther west, and had not sufficient time,to make the side track.

They are charmingly handsome chaps, with lustrous southern eyes. They sit for pictures of fruit-venders, acolyt s, boy princes, etc- So easily and surely do the young foreigners make a living that, with the abandon common to their race, both parents have resigned labor, and with five other children subsist upon tho studio profits of their two eldest sons.
