But Were a Little More .Guarded Than

STEAMERS PUOHISED FROM HEBE,
Sections Join at Huntington Finest
Portion of the Trip Down the
Columbia. ":
Salt Lakb City, May 16. The . first
section of the delegates to the Presby
terian General Assembly in Portland,
reached this city Saturday evening and
retained their berths on . the train, bnt
took '. their . meals . at " hotels,' - res
taurants, and', with friends " in'; the
city, leaving today for; the west.
During their stay, here, the Mormon
heierarchy assigned the famous taber
nacle to their , nee, and furnished a choir
of 'five hundred voices for 'the singing.
This is eaid to be the first time the
building ever was offered for a non-Mormon
gathering. The delegates were on
their guard a little more than President
Eliot was, so as to avoid expression of
opinions that : might " be criticised.
President. Eliot proved that it will not
do to say too much ;for the Mormons.
Supper, will be taken in Huntington to
morrow night at -7 o'clock, where the
second division, -which laid&aover in
Omaha yesterday, will overtake them.
Early Wednesday morning, will find the
train in the Blue mountains of Oregon,'
then along the Columbia river, the
southern bank of which will be descended
from Umatilla, passing Celilo, where the
mighty river ia set op on edge and so
narrow . that one may easily throw a
stone-across it, and arriving, at The
Dalles, where breakfast will be served at
7:30 'a. ' m. ' By special arrangment,
steamers' will be provided' on the "upper
Columbia, and taken at 8 :30 a. m. and
the descent of the river occupy the day
until about 4 o'clock. Such as desire
may remain in the cars and go on to
Portland, arriving at 12 mV, Wednesday.
I( is unnecessary to speak of the interest
which will attach to the descent of the
Columbia, through the chasm left for it
in the Cascades. Mount Jefferson and
Mount . Hood south ; of the river, and
Mount Adams and Mount St. Helen
north of it, all snow-capped, the basal
tic cliffs along the shore, and the many
other scenic wonders of . a river more
majestic than the far-famed 'Hudson,
will combine to make this an eventful
day. Concerning this trip Rev. Arthur
J.: Br6wn D. D. -pastor; of the First
Presbyterian ' church of. Portland, - in
which the assembly is to meet, writes,
"Your plan -for the special train out
here by way of the! Columbia ' river
scenery impresses me- most, favorably."
Mr. W. S. Mason, mayor of the city of
Portland and chairman, of the general
assembly excursion committee, and Mr.
A. A; Morse,' secretary of the committee,
say "without hesitation that the route
down the Columbia river would be ad
visable, and I know that your people
will think it the trip' of their life-time,
rrom xne uanea." ' - . i

; Washington, May 161 It , is settled
that Senator Dolph will be one of the
conferrees in the river and harbor bill.
and this position will probably give him
pow-er to retain m the bill certain appro

Dolph is confident he can hold this pro

publican conferree ' will be.' ' Senator

selected. - He is objectionable to some
people, especially of the Pacific coast, an
he does not look very kindly upon . some

Carnegie will continue the largest stock
holder, but will turn over the" manage
ment of the whole thing to Henry. C.

devote tbe remainder of his career to
spending his millions in artistic, social
and other directions, and it is likelv he
will take a more active part in ' political
airairs. In addition to their iron and
steel interests. Messrs. Carnetrie and
Frick control 70 per .- cent of the coke

to his country to accept the nomination,
even if he knows he -would not like to
serve out his term,. What , are a few
years of life to the gratification of a life
long ambition? Mr,' Blaine has been
striving for'the presidency for twenty
five years. - Now he has it within his
grasp. Do you suppose he is going to
allow a little matter like, a pain' in his
stomach ' to' deprive him of "the great
prize? There is not the sligheet obliga
tion imposed on Mr.; Blaine, by reason
of his" position,- to support the presi
dent's claim for a' second term." ' He is
not Mr. Harrison's secretary , of state,
but a representative of the 'American
people." ' The president does not own the
government.". The republican party can
tender Mr. Blaine the nomination, and
he can accept it without violating in the
slightest degree any principle of honor."

A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
Trains -Crasn into Each Otner witn an
; Awful Effect '
RUNNING TWENTY. MILES AN HOUR
The Iron Monsters Meet with a Roar.
Sounding Above the Storm.
CAK83 SMASHED ISTO KINDLING.
The Dead and Wonnded Being- Removed
from the Wreck. Miraculous .
" Escape of Bony Keefe. .
C1.EVK8, O., May 16. In the midst of
a terrific : storm of wind and rain, two
Big Four trains crashed into each other
at Cleves yesterday morning with an -awful
effect, the full horrors not yet
known. Freight No. 44, north bound,
was ordered to stop at North Bend to
allow No. 30, the cannon ball special Jto
pass.' The summer schedule went into
effect, yesterday and under the old
schedule the trains passed some miles
further on. Instead of stopping at
North Bend, the engineer pulled ahead
and approached Cleves, running at the
rate of twenty miles an hour. - As the
train appeared, Charles Smith, the tele
graph operator, rushed to the signal
wires and put up the danger signal.
Either it was not seen or the engineer
could not control the engine, for the
train sped on. At the same moment -the
express came into sight, and the
iron monsters crashed into each other
with a ' roar that sounded above tbe
storm. Both engines were battered into
a shapeless mass and rolled off the track.
The cars behind were smashed .into -kindling,
and the track for a hundred
feet was-torn up; - telegraph poles were
broken, and it was two or three hours
before notice of the wreck was sent out
and a special train sent to the scene
from Cincinnati- People from the vil
lage and surrounding, country gathered -and
. did all they could to rescue the
wounded, many of whom were taken '
away. The number cannot be definitely .
stated tonight. It is claimed some of
the wounded are in a dying condition.
Not a person on , either . train escaped
uninjured. With the arrival of the
special train, the work of taking out the
dead began. A'uiost miraculous escape
was that of Bony Keefe, a freight brake
man, who had just reached the top of a
car when the .collision occurred, was.,
thrown over a telegraph wire, forty feet,,
into a stream of water, which saved his
life. - He thinks there are three tramps
under the wrecked freight. Several .
passengers on the express train are posi
tive . several of their number were also
killed. .It is certain they are missing,
but it is possible they are among the
wounded scattered around town. A fire -started
in the wreck, but the people
rushed to the scene and prevented a.
holacaust." Fortunately, the relief was
prompt, "and everything possible was-,
done for- the wounded. A pathetic
scene was the death of Brakeman' Gib
bons. He, lingered till afternoon, and
was conscious all the time. He left a
young wife an hour before the accident," - -and
all his grief and talk was about her.
In the agonies of death, till his tongue
was stilled, he spoke only of her. ; Again -.
and again he begged some one to pray,
and an old colored minister responded
to bis pleadings and knelt at his bed-
side. There was a scene of solemnity
that . will not SPon be forgotten by those "
who witnessed it, and silent "'tears
moistened every eye. .
