Cleveland, O., Nov. 13, About five p. m. the boiler in the Forest city iron works exploded .with teriffic force, killing two men and seriously injuring four or five others, and wounding half a dozen more. The wonder is that a lager number were not killed, as near ly 350 men were at work, in the build ing which is open at both ends and ides, under one roof and there is no partition. A large part of tho roof torn off and fragments of the boiler wrre hurled a great distance. The killed are. Wn. Atkins, master ma chinist of the works; the top of his head was blown off and both of his legs were wrenched from the trunk; the body was horribly mangled. D. W. "Wright had the top of his skull cut off as bv a knife, and tha brains scoop ed out; his face was blackened almost beyond recognition. John Gallagher, a furnace man, had his skull broken -across the. forehead The first engin eer's head was smashed and bis body mangled. Wright and Williams were instantly killed. Gallagher lingered three hours. Steam? Collision. Loxdon, Nov . 13. A collision oc curred at two this morning, one of the steamers is missing; the steaiue r was bark rigged, and nothing was seen after the collision . Captain Lud wig of the "Westphalia, immediately dispatched a boat to try and find her, and then made ready all the other boats, in the event of water gaining on the Westphalia, all the pumps weie kept going without intermission. The mails and ninety passengers were landed at Portsmouth this afternoon, and will be forwarded to destination, at the earliest opportunity. The West phalia is now moored alongside the dockyard and kept clear of water, by pumps. The cargo is not greatly dam aged, and great pra'se is accorded Captain Ludwig and the officers and crew for their coolness and courage, from the moment of collision. There was a very heavy sea on, and it was too dark to see a ship's length. Quite a Time. Memphis, Nov. 13. The Appeal's Columbus, Miss., special says: Last Monday evening, near Bigbee Valley, about twenty miles bjlow here, Miss Hose White, a woman of loose reputa tion, was murdered by a negro, and her body was found in the woods, near the road, with the skull fractured.

That said firing was not done, in the line of their duty, and further thejury holds that Major, Allen the commander of the troops culpable for ordering and permitting the firing. A Queer Bubud. Chicago, Nov. 13. The Times will publish a story in this morning's issue, to the effect that the Chinese dwarf, Chemah, forty-five years old, and forty four inches high, is about to marry a young woman aged nineteen, who gives her name as Fannie Coleman and is said to be of well-to-do Catholic parents, inNewYoik. The story, as told, is that the girl saw Chemah, on exhibi tion, in New York, and ftll violently in love with hitn. the attachment being reciprocated. The girls parents ob jected, and none of the Catholic priests in New York would marry them. The Buddhiit dwarf ha, been here on exhi bition three weeks nd the girl is here also. The prietts here refuse to marry them, but tliey go next to St. Louis, and the gill says If the priest will not marry them, they will ask a protectant minister, to perform the ceremony. The Cold Weather. The present extraordinary "spell of weather" Is explained by the following reports from various points in the northwest ; St. Paul, Nov. 11. A report re ceived here from Crookston, Minnesota, states that It ts snowing fust, and In some places has ulrendy drifted ten to twelve feet high.

A general snow has fallen in the Missouri valley and a general rain in the upper Missis sippi valley and the lake regions. The temperature has fallen from thirty to twenty degrees in Iowa and Kansas, where a norther is passing to the southwest. . 1-ostel Affairs. "Washington. 13. Assistant Attorney-General Freeman, for the post office, has sent the firt official notice to the St. Elmo Marriage Insurance company, Chattanooga, Tennessee, to show cause why it should not be de barred from receiving money orders and registered letters because of its al leged fraudulent character. This will be a test case. It is stated that the southern mail) are so loaded down with marriage association circulars that the distribution of the mails are several days behind, and that in Texas alone these associations have received over $2,000,0011. Postmaster-General Howe has been debating the propriety of recommend ing, in his annual report, the establish ment of postal saving banks, in con nection with the money order sys tem of the postoffice department and has finally come to the conclusion, not to make such a recommendation, but leave the matter to congress. For the past few years, each succeeding general from Creswell down, to Mavnard has recommended postal savings banks, but congress has never taken kindly to the idea. The time for such banks in the opinion of postoffice officials, who have strongly advocated them, is now passed, as a postal sav ings bank system, predisposes of a per manent national debt, and that savings deposited may find an investment lor which postmaster the gov ernment is responsible. In fifteen years at the present rate of pay ing off the debt, there would be no government bonds in market, and there will hence be no basis upon which to build a postal saving bank system. Tbe Supreme Court. Washington, Nov. 13. An amend ment made in the rules of the Supreme Court to-day, will deprive Clerk McKeny of probably one-fourth of his income. Chief Justice Waite iu an nouncing changes in the rules, said the statute appointing clerks, was passed in 1799. and that is the. practice as it now exists in all material respects, and is just what it had been for more thau fifty years. There is an apparent conflict between the two rules, added Judge Waite, between the rules, and the practice under them, which ought not exist. It is also evident that what fifty years ago was no more than a reasonable compensation, is now under the operation of the rules, as con structed, larger than it ought to be. Several cases, some of importance, were decided to-day. Iu the case of the Equator mining and smelting company vs. Geo. AV. Hall, the judgment of the circuit court of Colorado, was reversed and a new trial ordered. The court holding that under the code of that State, each par ty to the suit is entitled to a new trial, without alleging the cause or the pay ment of costs. The case of County of Sai Mateo vs. Southern Pacific road was advanced on the calendar, pro vided the day is fixed in this year, this is a test case, and Senator Edmunds requested an early hearing.

A GOOD LETTER, From Our Corrependent on the Wins; Al buquerque Compared With her Sister Cities An Arsenal to be Established here Efforts to be Made to build a Territorial Penitentiary. Editor Journal: Having arriv ed at the Missouri river and visited al', the principal iowns between here and Albuquerque, a sort of pious feeling serins to have taken possession of your correspondent and after much deliber ation as to its cause, and at first as cribing it to climatic changes the true cause has been made apparent on recalling the appear ances, and experiences, in the various towns already mentioned, for after leaving the stirring and active metrop olis of the southwest all other places seem as if experiencing an eternal Sunday so quiet do they seem in com parison, hence this piety, l et it can not be said that these places are dull in a business serise, There is enough commercial activity to keep tnem well up to the nierchantue front, but cerv tainly Albuquerque does as much business in a day, it seems to me as most of these places in a week. Upon the same train with vour correspon dent was a representative of and part ner in one of the largest houses in New York, who does business in the west, and be stated that Albuquerque did more business than Santa Fe and Las Vegas put together. This was the opinion based upou expierence of a gentleman who spends nine out of the twelve months of the year travel ing about this western country, and visiting and doing business with every town in it. As a proof of the high es timation with whicli disinterested par ties regard Albuquerque as a distribu ting point and busintss center, your correspondent will relate that which will be news to most of the people of Vlbuquerque. Some time since the chief of the ordname department, TJ. S. A- orlered Lieutenant Russell, of that department, to inspect the coun try comprising the southwestern Terri tories and select some place favorably located upon trunk lines of railway, which could be used by the depart ment as a distributing point, and where an arsenal would be established for the storage of munitions of war. It is useless to add, that after traveling over the country and carefully examin ing all localities, nono were found that so eminently filled all the requirements as Albuquerque; for it is not only the geographical center of New Mexico, but of all the great southwest as well; and so Lieutenant Russell will report to his department in favor of Albu querque; and Messrs. Mack & Whee lock have been iequested to furnish one of their maps of the town which will probably accompany Lieutenant Russell's report. Thus Albuquerque will receive another addition to her marvelous prosperity and growth. It is not for your correspondent to hint that this step is only the first of others that may bring the military headquar ters to Albuquerque. They were estab lished at Santa Fe when the ancient city was the great distributing point for the whole southwest. But since the advent of railways the business and commercial centre has moved to Albuquerque, and it cannot be long before the headquarters of this depart ment is moved to Albuquerque for the same reasons that originally brought them to santa r e. Among those from the central city who were fellow pas sengers with your correspondent was Mr. Elwood Muden who recently sold the Maden house to eastern parties for $30,000. Mr. Maden, however, does not intend leaving Albuquerque per manently. He goes east for the pur pose of purchasing a large stock of glassware, crockery, silverplated 'vare, etc., and it is his intention of doing a wholesale and jobbingbnsiness in these goods. This w ill be the main branch of the business, but a retail department will also be established. Mr. Maden intends purchasing his fine imported goods in New York. His store will occupy the premises formerly tenented by the Maden house office and bar room. Conspicuous among the fellow trav elers of your correspondent was Gov. Sheldon of this Territory, who is on his way to his old home in Ohio. The Governor may be absent lrom New Mexico for some time, but our citizens may rest assured that he w ill never neglect their interests. In conversa tion with jour correspondent he said he had in view an intention of getting if possible an appropriation for the purpose of establishing and building a Territorial penitentiary, which should be located near any mines or quarries upon or adjacent to the railroad. He remarked tliii at present the people of this Territory were at an annual expense of nearly $20,000 for the pur pose of maintaining their crimináis in the penitentiary belonging to other States. All of this could be saved if we had a penitentiary as it could be made self tiustaining out of the labor of the convicts and also furuisli a place of safe keeping for prisoners of various counties awaiting trial. Let us wish the Governor all tho success the pro ject deserves. It Is reported to your correspondent that an other of the largo business houses of Santa Fe is about to establish itself In Albuquerque though the removal will not take place Immediately. The weather is unusually warm iu the vicinity of eastern Kansas at pre sent, and an Indian summer of unus ual intensity seems to prevail. ;11 the cltle and towns am apparently doimr a prosperous business and there are no complaints from the lurrrhauU any where.
