ATOTHER PAPER
Young- Hearst, of the San Francisco
Examiner, buys the New York
Journal.
Electric Cars Collide In Tacoma, Seriously
Injuring Several Fassengcrs.a Heavy
fog and Font Running Said
to be the Cause. '
New York, Oct. 4. A special to the
Herald, from Washington, says:
The great international question of
the hour is the Venezuelan boundary
dispute. Secretary Olney has pre
pared a dispatch to Ambassador Bay
ard wmeh will soon bring the matter
to an issue. This dispatch is of a most
positive and unequivocal nature. As
soon as it shall be placed before the
British government it will raise an is
sue which can be settled only by the
retreat of one or the other govern
ments. The stand taken by the United
States in this dispute is one which in
volves one of the oldest and most sacred
traditions of the government an en
forcement of . the Monroe doctrine.
Secretary Olney's dispatch is, in sub
stance, a declaration in the most posi
tive language that the United States
will not consent to British occupation
of the disputed territory in Venezuela
unless that nation's right thereto is
determined by arbitration. This dec
laration is substantially the same as
that which was made some months
ago and to which the British foreign
otlice replied with a statement that
while England's right to a part of the
territory in question could be sub
mitted to arbitration, the right to an
other part of the region in question
could not be submitted to such adjud
ication.
When Great Britain took this ground
the question which President Cleve
land and his advisers had to decide
was whether the .United states was
bound by the Monroe doctrine and by
her dignity to insist that all of the ter
ritory in dispute should be submitted
to arbitration, or whether by conced
ing England's contention we should
virtually abandon the field and leave
Venezuela to fight it out alone. Few
more serious questions have presented
themselves to an American administra?
tion wijinrecentyear&v. , The decision.
of the "president and his cabinet ad
visers, after careful discussion and
painstaking investigation, is that a
bold and consistent policy shall be
adopted, and this policy has been for
mulated in the dispatch : which Am
bassador Bayard will lay before the
British government as soon as he re
turns from his present trip to Scot
land.
The dispatch' meets- England's re-
oindor with a reaffirmation of the
principle of the original contention
expressed in phrases which' leave no
possibility of doubt as to the meaning
of the earnestness of the United States.
It does more. In polite, but firm and
significant words Secretary Olney de.
clares it to be the belief of the. United
States government that the territorial
claims which Great Britain has set in
Venezuela are in the nature of an at
tempt to seize territory on the Amer
ican continent - to which she has no
legal right. The secretary points out
two horns to the dilemma, leaving
Great Britain to choose which it will
accept.
First If the quarrel with Venezuela
is an ordinary boundary dispute, hav
ing its origin in faulty descriptions,
imperfect surveys or other misunder
standing, a refusal to arbitrate the
same is contrary to the precedents set
by Great Britain herself and contrary
to the practice of all civilized nations.
Second If, on the other hand, as
appears to be the case, and, as is the
belief of the president of the United
States, the dispute as to the location
of a boundary line is a mere disguise
under which Great Britain is attempt
ing by superior force to extend her
territory in America, this is directly
violative of the Monroe doctrine, and
will never be ' submitted to by the
United States.
This is the substance of the dispatch,
which, in all probability, will become
one of the most famous dispatches sent
out of the American state department.
It is a direct, positive and practical ap
plication of the Monroe dostrine in its
broadest aspect to the quarrel between
Great Britain and Venezuela. It com
mits the United States to a position
which must be adhered to.
STREET CARS COLLIDE.
Fearful Accident on an Electric Line In
i Tacoma.
Tacoma, Oct. 4. A frightful head
end collision between two electric cars
occurred on the line to Puyallup, near
the southern city limits, at 7:30 this
morning, during a dense fog. Both
cars were crowded to their utmost
limits, and were running very rapidly.
A dozen people were badly injured,
two fatally. ...
John Tournier and H. Bailey, riding
on the platform, were jammed between
the cars. The former had both legs
broken; the latter one, and both were
injured internally.
Eddie Lemagie, 16 years old, was
badly crushed and rendered insensible.
Fred Foy, a motorman, was injured
internally.
Others were less seriously hurt. The
injured were taken to Fanny Paddock
hospital.
Both cars were badly shattered, and
travel was delayed for several hours.
The accident is laid to carelessness in
running too fast in the fog.
.A PAPER IS NEW YORK.
Tonne; Hearst Is Said to Have Purchased
the Moraine Journal.
New York, Oct. 4. The World says
that for some time past William R.
' Hearst, son of the late Senator George
R. Hearst, the proprietor of the San
Francisco Examiner, has been nego
tiating with John R. McNeil, for the
purchase of the Morning Journal, and
it now seems probable that this will
be accomplished in a few days. M
Hearst said at the Hoffman house that
nothing had been settled in regard to
the matter, but that he hoped, for
satisfactory outcome.'
Another local paper says the report
of the sale of the Morning Journal, of
this city, to W. R. -Hearst, proprietor
of the San Francisco Examiner, was
confirmed by Mr. Allen, the New York
correspondent of the Examiner
There is excellent authority for saying
that Mr. Hearst will take possession
of his now property some time next
week. He is now in this city, and is
accompanied by the managing editor
of his San Francisco paper, S. S
Chamberlayi.
The Morning Journal will retain its
present name, for a time at least, and
its price will remain at 1 cent. But
many changes in its management and
its features will probably be made
soon. The Journal was purchased
some weeks ago by John R McLean
from its founder, Albert Pulitzer.
FOCND HEAD.
A Daughter's Very Peculiar Dream Veri
fied.
Muncie, Ind., Oct. i. Thomas Clev
enger, aged bo, was found dead in bed
at his home five miles southeast of
Muucie. On the adjoining farm resides'
a daughter, Mrs. Mary Sheets. Wed
nesday night she dreamed that her
father had died during the night. As
soon as she had finished her breakfast
she called at her father's home and
found them waiting breakfast for the
old gentleman to arrive. She told of
her peculiar dream and led the family
into the bedroom, where his body was
found cold in death.
Run Over by a Train.
Ottawa, 111., Oct. 4. Corydons
Phelps, for many years the leading
stockbuyer and shipper of this city.
ana nenry j. Kigaen, a painter, were
struck by a passenger train on the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad
here and instantly killed. John Hei-
ser, who lived close to the scene of the
accident, was sick, and sat at his win
dow overlooking the track. He was
found dead by his wife a few- moments
later, death evidently having been
produced by the shock of witnessing
the accident. -
A DISASTROUS COLLISION.
Train Wreck Near Brussels Worse Than
at First Reported.
BRUSSELS, Oct. 7. Dispatches re
ceived this morning from Wavre, K
miles from this city, where the colli
8ion- occurred, -between;' a. -passenger
train and an engine yesterday evening,
show that 18 instead of 10 were killed,
and 100, not 40, were injured. , There
are no Americans among the dead or
injured.
The passenger train was just passing
the railroad station at Moostey, when
an engine coming from Ottinguies at
full speed collided with it and teles
coped three carriages. Among the
passengers were M. Bernhardt, presi
dent of the chamber of deputies, and
his family. None of them sustained
serious injuries. Mme. Mourlow, wife
of. the well-known engineer, was
among the killed.
Can't Fight ln Illinois.
Springfield, 111., Oct. 7. Governor
Altgeld, when asked what course he
would take in case an attempt was
made to pull off the Corbett-Fitzsim-mons
fight on an island in the Illinois
river near Henry, 111., said:. "I don't
know where the island is, nor do I
know of any prospective fight, but if
it is on Illinois soil we will do all in
our power to prevent any prizefight
taking place there. The enforcement
of the law rests primarily with the lo
cal authorities, but if it becomes nec
essary for the state to take a hand, you
may say .that I will use every effort to
prevent the fight."
The governor has no doubt as to his
ability and his right to uphold the
laws of Illinois. Further than the
above, however, he would say nothing.
, Will Not Be Alowed.
Washington, D. C, Oct. 7. Com
missioner Browning, of the Indian
office, has taken prompt and decisive
steps to prevent the Corbett prizefight
in the Indian territory. He has pre
pared a letter of instructions to Agent
Wisdom, at Muskogee, directing him
to see the laws enforced and eject for
cibly any intruders who enter the' In
dian country for the purpose of creat
ing a disturbance or engaging in any
thing that might be detrimental to the
Indians. The commissioner says the
statutes are ample to prevent the fight.
The agent will have at his back not
only the Indian police, but all the
United States troops necessary to eject
the fighters.
Passenger Train Held Up.
Fort Smith, Ark., Oct. 7 The
north-bound Frisco passenger train
was held up at Caston, I. T., 50 miles
south of here, last night, by six men.
They cut the express car loose, and
ran it up the track, but failed to open
the through safe, and only got 85 cents
from the local safe. The passengers
were not molested. It is thought to
have been the work of the Christian
brothers' gang.
Want a Tariff on Wool.
Washington, Oct. 7. Judge Wil
liam Lawrence, of Bellefontaine, Ohio,
president of the National Woolgrow
ers' Association; M. G. Markham and
Secretary Aveon, of New York, have
called a meeting of woolgrowers, wool
dealers and sheepbreeders, to meet at
the Ebbitt house, Washington, Decem
ber 4, to urge congress to incorporate
wool-tariff provisions in any revenue
bill that may be passed.
Crisp StUl True to Silver.
Nashville, Oct. 7. In a letter to
J. W. Gaines, of this city, dated Amer
icus, Ga., October 2, in reference to
the reports that be had changed his
views on the Silver question, ex
Speaker Crisp says: "I still favor the
free coinage of silver, and think, per
haps, I may make a speech or two in
Georgia on that line before congress
meets."

The Accident Happens Dnrlng the Cere
- monies of Laying the Corner-stone
of a Cathedral at Lorian
Ontario.
Seattle, Oct. 5. The Northern Pa-
ctfic and Great Northern Express Com'
panies have had their agents at work
today checking up the books of four
fish shipping companies, to detect
overweights in shipmeuts to the east.
The trouble arose several days ago,
when the express companies issued 8
circular complaining they had been
defrauded by the fish shippers, who, it
is claimed, had exceeded the 5 per
cent limit for shrinkage, and had im
posed on the transportation companies.
The order provided that net weights
be abolished and gross weights suubsti
tuted, and the express companies at
the same time demanded that the ship
pers' books be opened to them, so they
could detect the excesses, if any. Four
of the companies, after several con'
ferences, - acquiesced in the demand.
The others hold out and will be sbut off
from thier 'eastern market until they
yield. The companies made a rate of
4 cents to St. Paul and 81 cents to
New York, .consignments often requir
ing to be iced six or seven times.
SCAFFOLD gave way.
Distressing Accident at the Laving; of a
Church Corner-Stone.
Lorian, O., Oct. . While a great
crowd of people was assembled this af
ternoon to witness the laying of the
corner stone of the new St. Mary's
cathedral, a temporary floor, upon
which many were standing, suddenly
gave way, precipitating many men
women and children into the base
ment. Two were killed outright. 10
fatally injured and between 30 and 40
others badly hurt. The services were
just about to begin when the accident
happened.
Fully 30,000 people were around the
platform, which had been constructed
above the foundation of the edifice,
The boards forming the floor had been
laiov- across;; joists,-. whien were- sup
ported in the middle by upright posts,
These supports broke and the floor
went down with a crash. Fully 300
people were thrown into the pit formed
by the sagging in the middle of the
floor.
For a'moment everybody was paral
yzed by the calamity, but soon there
was a rush forward by those willing to
lend assistance to the crushed and
struggling people. This made matters
wors, for 50 more persons were crowd
ed forward into a hole upon those who
went down with the floor. When
confusion subsided somewhat, many of
those who were able to extricate them
selves did so by walking or crawling
over the less fortunate. The work of
rescue was begun at once and all were
finally taken from the pit.
WHEN ALL HOPE HAD GONE.
Rescue of a Shipwrecked Crew In Mid-
Ocean.
Puymouth, Oct. 6. The Indian
liner Dunera, from Calcutta for Lon
don, has landed here nine of the crew
of the Italian ship Filltppo, Captain
Mortona, which left Cardiff Septem
ber 17 for Buenos Ayres and foundered
en route. The Fillippo sprung a leak
in mid-ocean, and the crew worked in
cessantly at the pumps for three days,
but they were obliged to abandon the
ship. . Captain Mortona, who refused
to abandon his ship, and the crrpenter
were drowned. The others of the
crew had a terrible experience in an
open boat. They had no oars, sails
nor water, and they were in a raging
storm for 36 hours. They had aban
doned all hope when they were picked
up by the Dunera.

Interview with Mr. Wilson concerning
the killing of Captain Smith and two
companions in Jackson's Hole Octo
ber 3, he says the bodies were found
on the south fork of Snake river, and
encamped one mile below them were
60 buck Indians. Constable Manning
and Mr. Wilson immediately notified

THE CUBAN FLOODS.
Forty. five Dore Bodies R recovered From
The Innundated District.
Havana, Oct. 6. Word has been
received that 45 more bodies have been
recovered from the inundated district
in Vuelta Abajo, the damage from
flood and cyclone having now reached
the dimensions of a great disaster.
Many more persons, and, in fact,
whole ' families are missing, and as
the floods subside and the ground is
gone over by searching parties, it is
feared that the death list will will be
greatly increased. The money lost to
the railway company is estimated to
be approximately $300,000.

Spaniards Will Look After Oar Case
When Cuba is Settled.
Chicago, Oct. 7. A special from
Tampa, Fla., says: "Two things are
certain," says a New Yorker on his
way home from a prolonged stay in
Cuba, looking after extensive interests
in the Interior. "One is that we are
going to have trouble with Spain about
complications arising from the Cuban
Highest of all in Leavening

question; the other that Cuba will be
free whether the United States recog
nizes her or not."
This gentleman could not allow his
name to be used, because his property
in Cuba would be confiscated and he
would be thrown into prison were he
to return there. -
"I heard a high official in , Havana
say," he continued, "if the Americans
do not mind, we will parade the Span
iBh troops in Central Park, New York,
before we are through. I hoard It said
in a well-known cafe in Havana that
after the rebellion is suppressed the
United States will be attended to, and
it was hoped Cleveland could be caught
and hanged. It is openly declared in
the cafes that if Uncle Sam recognizes
Cuba, Americans must get out of the
islands. By Christmas there will be
180,000 Spanish soldiers in the island
of Cuba. Why should Spain mobilize
so many troops if they are not needed
to suppress the revolution?
"The Cuban patriots are sadly in
heed of arms and ammunition. One
day a band of 40 passed my plan'.ation
with only 10 guns, and they were the
cheapest kind of guns. The rest; of
the party were armed with ax" handles.
They load their guns with bits of
barbedwire taken from fences and
with nails."
Died of Cholera.
Tacoma, Wash., Oct. 7. The steam

health. She reports much cholera in
Kobe. An attache of the American

Cholera In Tangier.
New York, Oct. 7. A special to
the World, from Tangier, says: The
number of deaths here from cholea t o
date is 700. Teteuan reports 90rnew

FILTHY LUCRE.
Many Prefer a Dirty Note to a New Oaa,
Especially In the West. '
The raid that was made on the
treasury department for new notes
and coins by the visitors in Wash
ington during the Grand. Army en
campment and the 1,000,000 and
more old torn bills which they left,
behind indicates what a rarity a
crisp, new note is in the west, ln
Washington people have got to be
quite fastidious about their money.
That which is fresh and -clean is
right at their hand, and when a note
begins to get a little Boiled they do
not care to handle it. Notes such as
are regarded as in good condition in
Chicago and other western cities
would not circulate for a day in
Washington. Pocketbooka are sel
dom used there except for small
change, the correct thing being for
those who have money to carry the
new bills in an envelope without
folding them, so as to preserve theii
newness. .
A Washington man going west can
mark the stages of his progress by
the changing condition of the money.
In the cities of the far west it is bad
enough, but in the country places
and among the farmers generally
after passing the Ohio a new note of
small denomination is a thing almost
unknown. Even in Minneapolis men
from Washington who carried crisp
ftl is4Aa ir ViA 'ArnnnTin 1 rtniVn rra r
f UVWO AAA U1V VllglUtU IWVsVAgCO, j
just as they came from the treasury,
found occasionally places where they
could not pass the money because il
looked "too new to be good. A
good many of the street car conduc
tors refused to take the new notes,
but a dirty bill, all patched and al
most free from design, was taken
without question as the proper thing.
It is said at the treasury department
that comparatively little money
comes in from the west for redemp
tion. - ;
Great quantities of these notes
don't como back for redemption, and
in tne nnai run of years the govern
ment is much the gamer by it The
trouble is that, while the treasury is
always ready to destroy the old notes
and give new ones in their place,
there is no provision for transporta
tion of the notes, and the amount of
express charges from a distance pre
vents their being sent in for redemp
tion. In 1882 congress made an ap
propriation for the payment of such
express charges, and for once the en
tire country got a new set of green
backs. Since then there has been no
appropriation for that purpose, and
the national currency is sadly in need
of repairs. Cor. Philadelphia Tele

An Enormous Balsam Poplar.
Near Geneva, N. Y., is a balsam
poplar tree 120 feet high, diameter of
the top 115 feet and with a trunk 23
feet in diameter. It is probably the
finest specimen of this tree in the
world. It is on the home grounds
of Charles Bean, Esq. It has been
taken for the common Canadian pop
lar, but Dr. Sweet is authority for
the corrected name. It is believed to
be about 100 years old and is called
the century tree, but as this would
make an average increase of nearly
5 inches in diameter a year it must
be older than supposed. Meehaa'i
