THE SITUATION IN TENNESSEE.
A Cmnpronlise \Vill "cry Likely Obtain.
A Guard Iiills a Convict.
KNOXVILLE, July 24.—-There seems no
doubt that at the mass meeting of the
miners from Briceville and Coal Creek,
the conciliatory proposition of Governor
Buchanan will be accepted, that the men
shall go back to work, with matters to re-
main as they were until the state legisla-
ture has time to act upon the convict labor
quwtion.
The militia. has not at this writing been
ordered away from here, but it is not now
felt that the soldiers are needed. N or. from
the beginning have those in the leadership
of the miners at Coal Creek desired or in-
tended that there should be bloodshed.
They drove the soldiers away from the
mines as a protest against what they con-
sidered military dictactorship. And they
were strong enough to accomplish their
end by mere show of numbers without rc-
sorting to violence.
Your correspondent is in position to
know that many reports sent out about
mob rule at Coal Creek have been greatly
magnified. While there was disorder at
times, it was not general, nor was it in the
nature of outrage. The wise heads among
the protesting miners have, as a rule, re-
tained control.
The killing of a convict by the name of
Harris by a guard has caused considerable
excitement among the convicts, and an
outbreak is not improbable.

An Engineer’s Carelessness Results in
" His Own Death.
ELSHRA, N. Y., July 24.———By a collision
between a Northern Central freight and a
Lehigh Valley passenger train in this city
one man was killed and two others badly
injured. The freight was crossing from
its switch to the Erie tracks directly in
front of the block tower at Pennsylvania
avenue. The Lehigh, a local train, was
entering the city, goingr in the same di-
rection as the freight. For some inexpli-
cable reason Engineer Hopkins, of the Le—
bigh, ignored the signals and crashed into
the center of the in "flit...
The freight cars were smashed, the 10-
comotive stripped and thrown down a
bank and the tracks torn up for a consid-
erable distance. The engineer was James
Hopkins, of \Vaverly, about fifty years of
age. He remained at his post. and was
found buried under the wreck of the cab
with his hand on the throttle. He must
have been killed instantly. He had a wife
and several children at ‘Vaverly.
John Daniels, of \Vilkesbarre, baggage-
man, was severely injured. Several of his
ribs were broken. He was taken to the
Hudson Street Surgical institute. The
fireman, M. XV. Tillman, of Waverly,
stood at the left of the cab as the train
struck, and he was thrown upon the top
of the cab, gowing over with it. Beyond
the shock and some painful scalds he was
not seriously injured.
Three Killed and Five Injured.
LITCHFIELD, Ky., July 24.—A disastrous
explosion occurred on the farm of James
Durbin in Edmonson county. The boiler
of a steam t-hresher exploded when sur-
rounded by men and quickly transformed
a pleasant harvest scene into one of terror
and death. Three men were instantly
killed by the flying debris and escaping
steam, and five others were perhaps fatal-
ly injured. The killed are John Durbin,
Vl'ill Bashag and John Massey. Those dan-
gerously injured are Peter Pierce, Kit
Yates, Job Blanton, Oliver Phelps and
Thomas Lindsay. The explosion is sup-
posed tO have been caused by the water
becoming too low in the boiler.
\Vliat It Is Said Stanford \Vill Do.
CHICAGO, July 24.—Professor A. C. Hirst,
of the University of the Pacific, at San
Jose, 03.1., is here. He says the Leland
Stanford university is to be the finest and
most liberally endowed institution of
learning in the world. “It is reported
from reliable sources,” said Mr. Hirst,
“that Leland Stanford has already made
his will so that the university will secure
an endowment of $20,000,000 over and above
any sums that have already been spent for
the college.”
The Esmeralda’s Bad Break.
VALPARAIso, July 24.—The congression-
alist cruiser Esmeralda has got the Insur~
gents into a pretty muddle with the
French government by firing twice on the
French corvette Volta, near Coquimbo
bay. The French admiral will demand an
apology, and it is most probable that the
insurgents will hasten to make it. The
government cruiser Lynch, which had
been sent to Coquimbo to annoy the in-
surgent fleet, narrowly escaped capture at
his. hands.
General High Priest Hornet.
MINNEAPOLIS, July 24.—-The general
grand chapter, Royal Arch Masons, elected
Joseph H. Horner, of New Orleans, gen-
eral high priest for the ensuing triennial
period. The convocation will probably
not adjourn before Saturday. The gen-
eral grand chapter adopted a ritual, tho
first complete one it has ever had. Three
hundred delegates are present.
A Sheridan Statue.
CHICAGO, July 24.—A life size equestrian
bronze statue of the late General P. H.
Sheridan as he appeared on the occasion of
his famous ride to Winchester is to be pre.
sented to the city by C. T. Yerkes, of this
city. It will be erected on the west side
of Union park. Mr. Yerkes ordered the
statue in Europe last year, but the fact is
only now made known.
The Volunteer Transformed.
BOSTON, July 24,—Ge’nera1 Paine’s re-
constructed yacht Volunteer has been

the general character of the

As for the prices and quality

anteeing both price and qual-
ity with the agreement to take

chase?
