Boiler Explosion .
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. The
murderer was captured, examined,
committed to j.iil, escaped, was recap
tured, and Thursday night was taken
from the custody of the justice of the
peace by a mob and hanged.
That Kentucky Hob.
Cincinnati, O. Nov. 13. An Ash
land Kentucky special says: A coro
ners jury inquiring into the case of
the death of Colonel Ruppert and
others who were killed during the
transfer of Neal and Craft, from
Cattlesburg to Lexington, Ky., have
to-lay rendered a verdiit, finding that
the deceased was killed by bullets
fired from the guns of the state mili
tia, on the steamer Granite State,
while thpy were guarding the prison
ers Neal and Craft. 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.

the .Northern racitic. Much ice is
running in the Missouri and Red
rivers. It has been snowing all day at
liismarck. The weather after a storm
of twenty-four hours is clearing and
growing cold fast.
"Washington, Nov. 11. 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.
Heavy Failure.
Providence, It. I, Nov. 14. The
total liabilities of Payne & Sackett,
woolen manufacturers, whose paper

by a mortgage on the mill. The assets
exclusive of mill property i, estimated
at $150,000, losses in business, in the
two years past, has caused the failnre.
The parties are young, spirited men
who have the respect of the community-

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. Tim Indications point to
an m the and Imlnv winter In eommei
chil circles, and It U safo to s:ty that
AlbiiiUeiqiu will leap her slmro ut
ti n harvest.
