Dastardly Attempt to Wreck a I'as

Canyon liurned.
Naples, April -4. A fatal panic oc
curred last veiiin in the church of
Torre Annuiulata. During the services
the draperies about the altar were
blown against a lighted candle. The
flames spread rapidly and the congrega
tion rushed for the doors. Women and
children were thrown to the floor and
trampled upon. When the fire was ex
tinguished it was found that eight
women and live children had been
crushed to death, while hundreds of
others were seriously injured.
e!ii to which an electric battery had
been connected. A stronger current
than was Intended was turned on and
the initiate received a shock that nearly
resulted in death. For this act the
charter was taken away from the frater
nity and it was several years before It
was again granted.
Attempt to Wreck a Train.
Saltillo, Mexico, April 24. Advices
hare reached here of a dastardly attempt
at trainwrecking on the Mexicon Na
tional railroad north of here near Mari
posa station. At that point there is a
bridge over a deep canyon. This struct
ure was set on lire and was destroyed,
but the trainmen discovered that the
bridge was missing iu time to prevent
the south-bound passenger traiu from
dashing into the chasm. It is thought
to have been the work of a band of
brigands who have been committing
dopred.ttious in this section recently. A
temporary bridge has leeii constructed
and traffic on the road resumed.
for Governor of 1,'tah.
Caleb W. West has been renominated
governor of Utah. He was born and ed
ucated in Kentucky, and is about 49
years of ago. He
began the study of
law but his reading
was stopped by the
outbreak of the civil
war. Although
was only seventeen
years old, he lost no
time in joining the
army of Northern
Virginia. At the
close of the war he
resumed the practice of law, and in 180C
was admitted to the bar. The same year
no became county attorney, and in 1808
he was elected county judge of Harrison
county. He was a prominent candidate
tor lieutenant governor of Kentucky
some years ago, but was defeated on ac
count of having fought on the confed

Washington, April 24. The authori
tative statement of Cleveland yesterday,
in which he announced the present and
future action, of the administration in
relation to the gold reserve, has taken
the edge oft" the excitement that followed
the act of the secretary of the treasury
in dipping into the reserve fund. Ifi
there has been any danger of a financial
flurry, that danger appear nowjto be
passed. Under the interpretation of
Cleveland" statement, the reserve is to
be treated simply as go much cash in
the treasury, and whether the aggregate
rises or falls a few million adav becomes
a matter of little concern, consequently
verj nine interest is manifested today
at the department in regard to the
financial situation. Some offers of yel
low metal received from the West were
accepted, and Treasurer Jordan at New
iora reported that he had also received
a considerable amount of gold certifi
cates. Up till noon the treasury was
not advised as to the extent of the gold
shipment for tomorrow.
nar.uip in Line for the Great Naval
Iiaplay.
-New Iokk. April 25. The overture
to the great naval display, set for dav
alter tomorrow, took place today. The
Spanish warships arrived in the lower
bay last night with the Columbus cara
vels, Sauta Maria, Nina and Pinta.
Early this morning tugs cut theso queer
primitive vessels loose from the war
ships and towed them up North river to
the accompaniment of the boominsreuns
oi me Jiiantonoinoh and the forts along
the way, and the screaming of whistles
oi all sort of craft. Arrived at Ninetv
sixth street, they dropped anchor to re
main till time for them to take part i

Washington, April 2.). The gold in
the treasury this morning, oyer an
abovo the $100,000,000 gold reserve, is
t)00,000. This accounts for the gold
taken from the New York tubtreasurv
for export today, also for the gold ac
cepted from Itoston bankers. It does
not, however, include the gold offered
from San Francisco and Poauoko, Va
Theso amounts will appear in the treas
ury figures when the actual exchange is
made. Secretary Carlisle is much en
couraged at what ho terms "the patri
otic position taken by the lioston bank
erg." He took with him to the cab
inet this morning a bundle of papers,
presumably bearing on the conference
of the New York bankers with Assistant
Treasurer Jordan. In the incomplete
condition of that uiatter, Secretary
Carshle did not deem it prudent to cx
press an opinion.
this nature ever brought In the state of
Washington.
Yesterday Hon. I. M. Hall dropped
dead on Second street. Mr. Hall was at
one time the leading lawyer of Wash
ington territory, but dissipation caused
a rapid decline, w hich resulted in his
death. The demise is a sail one to the
community, owing to the high position
which Mr. Hall once occupied. Appro
priate resolutions wero passed at a meet
ing of the liar Association.

American ball.

The condition of the stock is centrally

severe, but as a rule food was plentiful
and tho loss was very small. Tin.
weather has not been favorable to the

Toleoo, O., April 24. The victims of
the recent outrageous hazing at Wes
leyan university have suffered in mind
as well as In body. The constant re
flection that on their faces those cabal
istic signs will be carried through life is
by no means food for quiet peace of
mind. Medical experts have been called
to the city, and every method known to
ecience lias been employed to prevent
permanent disfigurement in the way of
ecars, but at least in three instances the
marks will stand as living mementoes
throughout lifo. The branding of six or
seven of the young lady students of
lower grades by their schoolmates of
Old Monnet Hall is of more serious con
sequenco than at first reported. Three
or four of the girls were terribly scarred
by the action of the nitrate of silver on
their shoulders and breasts. The object
was to prevent their appearance in full
dress at class receptions anil at com
mencements. A patron of the univer
sity sain touay that unless the male
offenders jumped their bail, which was
made ridiculously small, he believed,
from the positive proof of a direct viola
tion of the statutes, a short time in the
penitentiary would result on an impar
tial trial. In this institution, under the
administration of Dr. C. II. Payne, sey
ernl years ago a certain Greek letter
