Skatti.e, May 19. A special to the Pou-Intelligencer from the Franklin mines says that every, thing is quiet there, although the dead line guarded by Pinkerton'i is maintained. The white miners are showing signs of yielding. Several families left town to-day, selling their shanties, which were built on the company's property, to the company, which puts the negroes in possession at once. An increased force of negroes was put to work this morning and more will be put in to-morrow. A party of white miners went to the bouse of J. S. Fry, the white engineer of the engine, who refused to quit woik, and assailed his wife ver bally, so that she had to take refuga with her husband in the engine house. At Eewcastle, the other camp of the Oregon Im provement Co., the feeling runs very liigh, because a few men have stayed at work at the pumps and engines. Between 20 and 30 shots were fired at a special train at ; :.'!() last night while it was making the run from Cool Creek to Newcastle, a distaace of two miles. Sheriff Woolery and Dep uty McDonald were on the engine and several bullets whistled past their faces, but no one was hit. UV.NAMITE EXPLOSION. A Tralu Demolished anil Elguta Men Killed. Takrytown, May !!. Just be fore noon to-day a work train on tiie Hudson River road was blown to atoms near here, by an explo sion of dynamite being transport ed for use in the track construction. There were probably thirty-four men upon the train, eighteen of whom were tilled and the re mainder seriously, and some fatally wounded. Many of the dead were blown into the river and five bodies still remain there. The train was torn in pieces, the track ripped from the road bed and a great hole torn in the eerth. There were twenty-four cases of lynamite in the first car on the train, each containing fifty pounds. A spark lrom ttie engine, it is said, set tire to a greasy rope coiled in front of the packages and the ex plosion followed. Its force was territlic, walls of houses in Tarry town being shaken and some cracked, and window glass fell in showers to the sidewalks. Scores of clocks were stopped. As rapid ly as possible the wounded were cared for by surgeons and removed to hospitals. Ten of those killed were picked up along the track, while live were taken from the river. Three of the injured died shortly after being picked up. It is believed there are stifl some bodies in the river, and the total number of killed will be twenty or more. ANOTHER CONGRESS. The Trmns.

Tke Cse of Tears. Newcastle Chronicle. The use of tears is not generally appreciated, even by those who tied them most freely. It is as sumed that tears " are shed occasionally asau expression of grief, though tears ol joy are not wholly unknown. This; libWever, is a mistake, for the discharge of tears continuous, and the flow of moisture from the lachrymal glands serves a very beautiful pro vision of nature. An immense quantity of tine dust is always floating' in the air, and though this is impalpable to the vision, it would soon obscure the sight if allowed to remain in the eyes. The continuous flow of moisture from the lachrymal glands is suffi cient to keep ttie eyeballs clear from this accumulation of dust, but when any grit, insect or smoke eets into the eyes it so effects the nerves as to cause an extra How ol tears to clear it away. Tears are thus involuntary, and may be caused by any pungent vapor, such as arise from acids or the odor of onions. The chief ele ment in the composition of a tear is water, but with water is associ ated minute proportions of salt, soda, phosphate of lime, phos phate of f-oda and mucus; and when seen under the microscope a tear after evaporation looks like a very small tish bone, ow ing to the salines forming themselves into lengthened cross) ines. MARTIAL LAW. ARMED SOLDIERS PATROL. THE STREETS IN PORT Aul'ICINCE The Deposed President of Haytl Said to be Responsible fur the State r A (Tali s. New York, May 1U. Martial law has been procb imed in Port AuPrince. Armed soldiers patrol the streets niuht and day, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the city without a passport. The Haytiau capitol is .iterally in a state of Beige, and the cause of this condition of affairs is the agitation caused by the supporters of Gener al I.eirets, the deposed president. This news is contained in letters received by merchants engaged in the Ilaytian trade in New York. It is also announced that the min ister of finance and foreign affairs in President Iiippolyte's cabinet has resigned, though no explana tion is given. The report that an attempt had been made on the life of President llippolyte is ab solutely denied. The exact date on which martial law was pro claimed in the Ilaytian capital is not given, ror months, thougu, it was said the supporters ot legi time have been actively engaged in stirring up a feeling against the piesent administration. The de posed president, who is now 80 jcurning in Jami ica, it is said, has been regularly posted in the work of his secret emissaries. President Hipolyte, however, has not been napping, and he is now determined to nip the threat ened uprising in the bud, and at the same time if possible, to bting the guilty ones justice. Tornado s.

Charles Brown, whose heroism in rescuing Mrs. Geisel and her children from the Indians during the Indian wars in Southern Ore gon, was called to public notice recently by a correspondent of the Oregonian, is now a resident of Crescent City, Cal. He writes to correct a statement made by the correspondent that he was a Russian Jew. He is a native of Russia and came to America at the age of 18, but is a Christian. He is now 07 years old and unable to make a living by niamial labor. He is a Mexican veteran, but has not yet received any aid ftoni the government. This brave man certainly deserves consideration from his adopted country. Stnug to Death by I.ocesle. Algiers, May 19. The French savant, M.

PLATFORM IS EVOLVING. Iguatiui Deunellj a Leaditf ldsoiLer of tbs Commutes- Perhaps It Will Be a Cryptogram FlatLrm. Cincinnati, May P.I. The Na tional Union Conference begins its session to-day. The formality of I lie election waa dispensed with, and C. F. Cunningham of Arkansas was introduced an temporary chairman. He made an appeal for harmony. The committee on resolutions were appointed with instructions to go into session at once, and pre pare a platform. Among the num bers are: California, II. E. Dillon; Iowa, J. B. Weaver; Minnesoto, Ignat ins Donnelly ; Wyoming, H. K. Shears. The c invention ad journed until t-rmoriow. Cixcinnatti, May. The com mittee on resolutions met this evening and organized by making Ignatius Donnelly, of Minnesota, chairman. Members who emerged at intervals from the committee room predicted the committee would work harmoniously and said the St Louis platform would be taken as the basis upon which to proceed. The "third party on the spot" enthusiasts to-night blossomed out with many pieces of blue ribbon about an inch square on their badges. One of them said when asked its meaning. "The child is olrcady bout and Ae mean to put clntlu-s on it right away," intimating llmt the growth of the new paity spirit had been such luat those w lio had been con cealing their real sentiments from prudential motives are inclined to throw off their mask and urge immediate action in the matter. The committee on permanent or ganization to-night selected Sena tor Petfer for permanent chairman. Hugh Kavanaugh, of Cincinnati, J. A. Brooks, president of the national farmers' alliance, and Gideon and Delameter, of Color ado, an old-time greenbacker, were made vice-chairmen. A largely attnded mass meet ing was held to-nig! it. The orator of the evening was Senator Pfetfer of Kansas. He began by saving these people before liim were har bingers of a revolution that will dethrone money and re-establish the authority of the people. It is a movement not to destroy but to cr. tte, not to tear down but to bui.d up ; not to destroy the wealth of the rich but to restore to labor its just reward. Referring to a placard on the balcony of the hall, "Nine million mortgaged homes," Pfetfer said it told volumes. "What shall we do with money power? We'll raise up a power among the people, make our own money and use it. (Tremendous applause.) Take their railroads? No, we'll build our own (more ap plause). We'll light with ballots and prayer, for the alliance is in a great measure taking the place of churches. Pfetfer closed by giving the new party a great boom in these words : "Does this mean a new party?" (Cries of yes.) "What else are we here for? The prophecy of the hour is that a new party is to be born here, and its name is to be the national party. (Great applause.) General Master Workman Pow derly addressed the meeting. Among other things he said : "The Knights of Labor will vote the principles of their organization and whea you form a party em bodying such principles as has been announced here to-night, you will find every knight of labor standing at the polls and doing his full duty." The meeting dispersed cheering again and again for Pow deily and the knights of labor. A Bogus Land Detectlwe. Spokane Falls, May 19. A bogus special agent of the general land office has been operating through Eastern Washington for the past week with good sucess. He goes by the names of Pendle ton, Pemberton, Zemberton and Temberton. He threatens saw mill men with prosecution for buy ing timber from settlers who have not yet proved up on their claims and has bulldozed so far as heard from, five or six men out of sums ranging from $200 to $500. When last heard from he was in the Okanogan district. Advices from Washington say he has no con nection with the general land office. He has operated around Walla Walla and through the Big Bend country. Pressed Into the Service. Tacoma, May 10. Dan Galla gher, who claims to be the son of ex-councilman of Portland, and tells a story of his experience w ith boarding house keepers. Galla gher says, last summer, while at Astoria, he took a drink in Grants boarding house and in a short time became unconscious. When he recovered he says Larry Sullivan, and another boarding house keep er, were carrying hini aboard a ship, he resisted and was terribly beaten. They took him aboard the ship Charles S. Bement bound for Europe. W hue on the Columbia river bar he jumped overboard. some one immediately began shootinx at him. hitting him on the thigh, he was finally picked up and fed on bread and water for eight days. The ship reached Dublin, Ireland, and when the crew were being paid on Gallagher refused to ttke money. The cap tain tried to pursuade him to sign articles, offering him good wages during the entire trip. this be refused and referred the matter to the U. S. consul, who took testi mony and forward it to U. S. court at Portland. The Bement is due in Portland in a few weeks. S'lll Burled In The Dean. S eaking of the drowning of a beautiful young lady on Sunday evening, by being thrown from a row boat in w hich she and a young gentleman weie boatriding near b wan, island, below roruandbv swells made by a passing steamer, the Oregonian says the treacherous Willamette still holds the fair form of Elizabeth Whitefield, the young lady wno was accidentlly drowned on Sunday night. The iver waa dragged for the body nearly all day yesterday but all efforts proved unsuccessful. I Iugh Brady, the expert body-finder, is sick in the hospital. He could recover the remains quicker than anyone else in the city, but as he is to sick to get up, the next best thing was to get his gappling tools. These were used, but in vain, The channel of the river is about fifty feet deep where the drowning occurred, and as the current is quite strong the body may be carried some distance' before it is recovered.

New York, May 19. A special to the Mail and Express from Acapulco says: it seems now ceitain that the Esmerelda must have to recourse to some desperate means to secure coal. It is an nounced to-day that the Pacific Mail Steamship Company ordered its agents here not to sell the Es meralda coal under any circum stances. This order was commu nicated to the Esmeralda and it is now thought to be extremely probable that the Chilian boat will take coal by foice, as there is absolutely nothing to prevent him from having his vessel' along side the coal bunks and taking what he wants, for the forts are worthless and the Esmeralda could, if molested, lay Acapulco in mine in half an hour. There is intense excitement." THE BITTER MARKET. Probability That Prices Will ate Higher This Tear Than Last. Sax Francisco, May 19. "There is not nearly as much butter being packed this season as last," said J. T. Rowe to-day. "Last year butter was down to 16 and 17 cents. This year good butter is selling at 21 cents. The market was thoroughly cleaned up before this season's packing com menced, owing to the demand from the East lor our butter. ljtt year the Eastern market stiffened and kept Eastern butter out of our market, and the result was our home product was eo'd quickly, for we never have a surplus of California butter here, and none of last year's product was held over, butter will not sell at low prices this year, because it is probable grass feed will be shorter than last year."
