Columbus, O., Jan. 21. Six people
were killed aud thirty injrtred more or
less seriously by an explosion of natural
;rae in this city early this evening. Some
k' '"i'lred are in a critical oondition
i; AiiS!.. minutes after 5i
0 ' ,. ,T,im;r of IJish and Main streets,
where it was said an explosion had oc
curred in a one-story dwelling at the cor
ner of Wail and Noble alleys. An ex
cited crowd of onlookers rushed into
the aarrjw alley with the firemen and
pushed up to the house, from which
cri,Js were heard coming.
Immediately afterwards the report of
an explosion rent the air and a sheet of
name buret from the building at the
northwest corner of Noble and Wall al
leys, and in an instant the mass of brick,
beams and stone that constituted the
two-story building were (lying through
the air,
Tlie scene was terrible. The people
fled shrieking in all directions. The al
ley wa3 instantly covered with a mass of
debris, from which came the cries and
moans of the injured. Everything was
confusion, but as quickly as possible
police and firemen organized and began
the work of searching through the mass
of bricks aud timbers for the unfortunate
victims.
THE DEAD.
Five were taken out dead:
Charles Becht.
John Seymour, a colored boy.
ilrs. P. Merrott.
An unknown man aud an nuknowu
babe.
The infant child of Charles Berry was
dashed from its mother's arms by the
force of the explosion, and almost im
mediately ran over and killed by a fire
department team which was running to
the burning building.
OTHER BODIES IN THE KUrSS.
Thirty people, men, women 3nd child
ren, were injured by burns, cuts or bruis
es, and it is possible that other bodies
may be found in the ruins of the build
ing to-morrow.
The explosion, as near as can be as
certained, resulted from the accumula
tion of natural gas in the cellar of Mer-
f r jt's house, it having leaked in from a
street main. Besides destroying the
house and the block next to it. a house
on the other side of the street was com
pletely wrecked.
RPNKOED ONLY ONCE.
A Little 3Ian Fitim Bntte Brings a New York
Steerer to (Vrief.
New Youk, Jan. 23. A dapper little
man created a sensation this morning at
the corner of Broadway aud Vessey
street. There he met Lewis Davis, and
after the men had exchanged a few
words Davis started to walk away. The
little man, whose name is Richard Goeb
ler, and who was bunkoed out of $1500
on Grand street on November 1, drew a
pistol and told Davis to halt. "If you
move" shouted Goeblor, "your brains
will be blown out of your head." This
strang6 tableau affected hundred who
were passing at the time, while little
Goebler held the pistol in position un
til a policeman came and took the weap
on from the excited man. The parties
were then taken to the Tombs.
At the court it was elicited that Goeb
had been in this city but a short time
ed. ie nail succeeueu iu uavm t(ye 01
the buuou men indicted. The matt- in
dicted was known as Johnston. Davis,
who is supposed to have been in league
with the bunco steerers, went on John
ston's bail, and Johnston was liberated.
It was found some time after that Davis'
boud was of no value. Goebler went
to the district attorney for instructions
in the matter, and Colonel Fellows issu
ed oat a warrant for Davis' arrest. This
warrant Goebler carried around with
him, and in order to aid him in its ser
vioe he was granted a permit to carry a
pistol. Davis was remanded and taken
before Recorder Smyth to plead to au in
dictment for perjury found against him.
He pleaded not guilty.
THE CENTRAL PACIFIC BLOCKADE.
Avalanche Overwhelms a Plow Four Miles
of Snow and lOOOShovoleis.
Sackamexto, Jan. 22. Last night at
12 o'clock the Central Pacific railroad
was clear, except a distance of four
miles. The rotary plow wag expected to
push aside the obstacle in a couple of
hours, and all trains were ordered placed
in readiness to move. The rotary enter
ed a deep cut near Shady Run, when an
immense slide came down and buried

SERVANT GIRLS WHO STOLE.
Their Trunks Full ot Plunder Two Young
Men Implicated.
Albany, Or., Jan. 24. Two girls, Kate
and Hattie Matton, of Drain, Or., who
have recently been engaged in doing
general housework for several families
in this city, started a few days ago for
their home, leaving two trunks to be
sent after them. Shortly after their de
parture several articles were missed from
the residence of F. J. Miller, where they
were working, and an examination of the
two trunks showed that the two girls
had stolen $200 worth of jewelrv, silk
dresses and clothing from the different
families in which they had worked,
which they had packed in the trunks.
Letters were also found in the truuks
written from one sister to the other,
showing that they had been carrying on
a systematic robbery for months, having
taken several trunkfuls home previous--uoicers

Alonzo Smithr of Ashland, Or., who vis

Drain have been notified to arrest the
girls, unless they return the stolen
goods.

CALIFORNIA TRAIN HELD i:P.
THE SAJtOAN TREATY.
German Papers Denounce It---The Anti-Alco
hol Clause Kemarkuble.
Washington, Jan. 23. Publication of
the Samoan treaty in Berlin has led to
its denunciation by the German press of
both parties. Dispatches received here
say that radical and conservative papers
alike call it a German retreat.
London, Jan. 23. The Times says:
The Samoan treaty bears handsome tes
timony to Bismark's reasonableness.
That so complete an equilibrium should
be established is much more than we
could have expected from him. That he
quietly consented to prohibition of arms
and alcohol and the land clauses is
probably due to British influence.
Their insertion in such a treaty is a re
markable event in the history of the rela
tions of civilized with semi-civilized
nations.
The Standard says : While it is good
theoretically it is likely that difficulties
will arise. In any case, provision is
made for revision.

St. Lot is, Jan. 22. Letters received
by W. L. Eagleson, business manager
of the Oklahoma Immigration Society
in Kansas, from points in North Caro
lina, say that a large number of Negroes
of that slate are going through in wag
ons this winter to the new territory.
Eagleson says there are now nearly 22,
U00 negroes in Oklahoma, and that by
spring there will be at least 50,000. He
claims they ought to have that country,
and says President Lincoln anil the re
publican pai iy promised to give it to
them. He adds:
"We are determiued to take it anyhow
and we will make it one of the grandest
states in the Union. I favor Colonel
.Morgan's scheme to purchase the Chero
kee strip and other lands in tbo Indian
territory exclusively for negro settle
ment. Give us the libiir bill, Indian
terrikrv and Senator Butler's 85,000,000,
and;we shall be content. Oklahoma-in
my judgment is the land of promise for
the race, aud imigratiou is the panacea
for every ill now affecting the negroes of
the youth."
WAsnrsuTox, Jan. 22. Will L. Byrd,
governor of the Chickasaw nation, in a
communication to-day laid before the
senate protests against the proposed es
tablishment of a territorial form of gov
ernment in Oklahoma, as a violation of
the treaty of 1S30. He says snob a
change wonld teud to annihilation of the
Indian tribes in Iudian territoiv.
NO TIDINGS OF THE ERIN.
She is Thought to be Lost--Ninetv Men
Board,
Sew York, Jan. It is feared the
steamship Erin has foundered with all
on; board. The agents, however, still
maintain that there is yet hope that the
Erin may have made some port in
disabled condition. A crew of six
ty-seven was shipped to Liverpool, and
the names are not known here, but Cap
tain Tyson was the commander and
Join Grant first oflioer. Besides the
regular crew there were twenty cattle
men on board, six of whom were work
ing their passage back to Liverpool and
were unknown. About fiifteen were
Americans.
TEKKUCF GALES ON THE ATLANTIC.
New York, Jan. 23. The steamship
Rhinelander, from Antwerp, experienced
some of the roughest weather ever
known on the Atlantic. January 13 one
of the most terrifio storms ever experi
enced came on. Towering waves swept
over the deck with such fury that six
lifeboats on the upper deck were stove.
At the same time a terrific wave boarded
the ship astern, crushing the turtle-back
over the steering machinery and render
ing all steering impossible. The steam
er was saved from almost inevitable
wreck only through the heroic exertions
of Captain Weyer and his officers. The
damage was temporarily repaired so as
to render steering possible. The weather
moderated somewhat up to January 18,
when a gale even more terrifio than the
former one came on, lasting to the fol
lowing morning. During the remainder
of the voyage a heavy westerly gale and
a high southerly sea, with frequent
suow squalls and intensely cold weather
prevailed.

Insulation of New York Eleetric Lines
comes a Cantlaetor When Wet.
Newbebg, N. Y., Jan. 21. This morn
ing a man stopped his horse in front of
Parson's shoe store on Water street, tied
the animal to an awning post and went
away. A few moments later the horse
touched his nose to the iron post and
fell into the gutter like a log. Thomas
Dawson ran to help the horse, but no
sooner did be place his hands on the an
imal than he (Dawson) fell dead. Tom
Seltz, who saw Daft son fall, hastened to
his assistance and took hold of him to
lift him aud received a terrible shock,
and he too dropped to the ground as if
dead. He subsequently recovered as
did the horse.
An electric light wire had sagged and
Jay upon an iron rod extending from the
awning post to the building, aud the
full force of the electric current was
passing down be rou post into the
ground. The insulating material of the
wire had become thoroughly saturated
by the rain. The body of Dawson was
carried into the store and laid upon the
floor, where it lies awaiting the action of
the coroner.
SPOKANE'S NEW SENSATION.
A Handsome Young Inilian Girl Kidnapped
and Horribly Outraged.
Spokane Falls, Jan, 24 The intense
excitement created by the Baer murder
case was directed to another sensation of
a horiible nature which was made known
to-day.
Some time bince Maggie Wilson, keep
er of a notorious house in this city, vis
ited the Indian reservation at Lewiston,
Idaho, and selecting a strikingly hand
some and well-developed half-breed girl
aged 14 years, brought her to this city,
promising to find a home for her in a re
spectable family. On ariving here she
tried to force the girl to lead a life of
shame, but the girl firmly refused.
Finally, finding that force would be
necessary, the Wilson woman held the
poor girl while a man outraged her last
night. The Wilson woman has been ar
rested and denied bail. A man named
Geo. Preston was arrested to-night tor

Skilllnl Robbers Plunder the Express Car ot
a Passenger Train.
Ti lake, (Jal., Jan 21.- About 4 o'clock
this morrvig a passenger train from
San Francisco to Los Angeles was robb
ed about 8 miles north of here by mask
ed men. At that hour it was dark and
the passengers were asleep. Two men
who had not been noticed in the dark
ness sprung on the forward platform of
the car just as the train was leaving
Goshen. Before the train was fairly
started they climed over the tender of
the locomotive, aud the first that was
known of their presence was when the
engineer and fireman fouud themselves
covered with shotguns. The men wore
black masks, and their faces oould not
be seen. They acted with the utmost
coolness and showed themselves to bo
old hands at the business.
uuCfefvtooK tAr'Lc?Mnw,..K.JloeTtT!?iT- -
the train must be stopped when they
gave orders. The train was run ahead
until it had gone nearly 4 miles, when
an order to stop it was given. Engineer
S. Dehle at once obeyed the order and
brought tho train to a standstill
One of tho robbers sprang to tbo
ground. The engineer and iireman were
ordered to leave the engine, which they
did and were followed by the other rob
ber. Up to this time none ot the other
train hands had been aware anything on
the train was wrong, it came to a stop
miles away from the nearest station, the
brakeuien jumped off and ran forward to
find what was tlie matter. As they
approached the engine they
were ordered back with a curse by the
robbers, who threatened to shoot them,
and the breakraeu, considering prudence
the better part of valor, retreated to. the
cars. The engineer and fireman were tak
ken to the express car aud told to order
the messenger to opsa the door, on pain
of all three being shot if he refused.
The door was opened and all the money
and valuables which could be found
were placed in sacks. The fireman, W.
G. Lovejoy, was then ordered to pick up
the sacks and carry them up the track
toward Goshen. He was compelled to
carry them for nearly a mile, then to set
them down and return to his train. The
train then came on as fast as possible to
this place.
As soon as the alarm was given here a
special train containing a posse of armed
men was sent to tlie scene of the rob
bery, and the whole country is now be
ing scoured. It is believed they are the
same men who robbed a train at Pixley
several mouths ago. The crime was
committed in exactly the Baine way, and
the appearance of the men, as far as
could be seen, corresponds with that of
the two men who committed that rob
bery. The amount secured by the rob
bers is i.ot yet known, but it is thought
it is several thousand dollars, as they
made a clean sweep of the car, taking
their time to make the search for valuables.

Heavy Veidict for Fireman Rush Against the
Northern Pacific.
Chicago, Jan. 22. Henry Rush, whose
case for damages for personal injuries
against tbe Northern Pacific was made
sensational by Judge Gresham yester
day, was to-day awarded the largest
verdict on record for a similar cause.
He was given 40,000. Bush's legs were
paralyzed in an accident in Idaho. The
defendants, worked the abandoned wo
man scheme to prevent a finding for
plaintiff, and the judge used very strong
language in denunciation. In October,
1S88, Rush was fireman on a construc
tion train in Idaho, which was run into
and wrecked by a freight train. Rush
was so badly injured that he lost the
use of his arms completely. He charges
negligence on the part of the division
superintendent in not notifying him that
an extra freight was on the road.
The law reports show only one other
case in which a larger verdict was ever
recovered. This was 842,000 secured by
Ben Butler many years ago aga';nst the
Grand Trunk, The Northern Pacifio
made a motion for a new trial.

Four Chicago People Killed, Including
ents attending a Child's Funeral.
Chicago, Jan 23. A husbaud and wife
were slain outright this afternoon whila
attending the funeral- of their child.
The driver of the conveyance and a
neighbor riding with them were fatally
injured and died in a few minutes. Mr,
and Mrs. Frederick Payne were the un
fortunate parents. Anderson was the
name of the hackman, aud Mrs. Eepro
gal the neighbor.
Just as the carriage reached the gate
of Rose hill oemetery, where the road
crosses a railway track, an ingoing Chi
cago express on the northern road dash
ed upon it, utterly wreoking itandthrow
ing the unfortunate victims thirty feet
away. The 9-year-old daughter of Mr
aud Mrs. Payne miraculously escaped
with a slight scalp wound. The driver
and engineer are each censured for lack
of caution, but the absense of a flagman
at the crossing, none being kept there by
the railroad company, seems to have
been the principal cause of the horror,
as the view of both engineer aud carri
age driver was shut off almost, if not en
tirely, by the Rose hill railroad station
and a group of saloons.
