llu '-"l‘;un=iorlel Signal Man
Caused'the Thirsl Wreck.
THEEPROGRESS or THE FRENCH
IN DAHOMEY.
Carmaux Strike Ended-“British Ship
' Ashore.
LONDON, Nov. 4.-Throughout the
night men were working upon the de-
bris of the wrecks of the express and
goods train that collided near Thirsk
The tender of
the express train has not yet been lifted
from the mass of wreckage. It is sus-
pected that when it is removed several
bodies will be found beneath it. The
accident was caused by the negli-
gence of Signalman Holmes. A passen-
ger named Relath, in an interview, said
that he saw Signalman Holmes after the
collision. The man is in a pitiable condi-
tion of mental distress. His child had
died on the previous night, he told Re-
lath, and he had asked the station mas-
ter for leave of absence, but had been re-
fused. He had to take his turn of duty
though greatly fatigued, and was so
tired that he fell asleep and neglected
the signals.
The accident gives special interest to
the evidence of the witnesses now testi-
fying as to railway management before
the Royal Labor Commission. The men
assert that they are overworked, while
the railway officials testify that it is im-
possible to work the traffic of their lines
in a fixed day of ten hours.
Another lesson taught by the accident
is the‘superiority of the merican car
over the English car. In a collision the
latter collapse like egg boxes.
THE WAR IN DAHOMEY.
French Account of Its Progress—The Da-
homeyanl Weakening.
PARIS, Nov. 4.—Colonel Dodds, com-
manding the French forces operating
igainst the Dahomeyans, has telegraphed
details of the fighting that took place on
October 20. and 21. His dispatch says
that the French were attacked at Aka
by the whole strength of the Dahomey-
ans. The natives were repulsed with
heavy loss after two days’ fighting. Col-
onel Dodds adds that King Behauzin
mow wishes to come to terms. The
French commander, as a preliminary
condition, insisted upon the evacuation
of the Daiiomeyan lines along the R.ver
Koto. King Behanzin refused, and on
October 26 the French column, which
had in the meantime been reinforced,
attacked and carried two lines of in-
trencoments between Akau Kotopa. On
Octobsr 2‘7th tne French captured an im-
rtant line along the Koto, the strong-
est fortified position the French have yet
captured. The total French loss through-
out these battles was ten killed and 73
wounded.
After staying three davs on the banks
of the Koto, Colonel Dodds advanced
along the road to Kane, preparing for his
final march to Abomey, the capital.
When the troops rested they were re-
yictualed. Colonel Dodds concludes his
dispatch by stating that the resistance
of the Dahomeyans is becoming less vig-
orous, owing to the enormous lo’sses they
have sustained in their numerous en-
gagements with the French.
THE GARMAUX STRIKE. -'
Return of the Strikers to \York Singing—
An Important Struggle Ended.
_-_*CARMAUX, Nov. 4.—Today Was the date
fixed by the miners to bring to an end
the long strike in the mines here. A135
o’clock this morning the strikers as-
sembled in a body and marched past the
gendermerie singing the “Carmagnole."
”I‘ney marched to toe mines and about
one third of them resumed work. All
the men seemed satisfied at the settle-
ment of the trouble. Thus ends a stake
”that arose out of the discharge by the
mining company of a miner who had
been elected mayor of Carmaux, and
which at one tune threatened to have
grave political consequences. The Rldl'
cals took advantage of the troubles to at-
tempt to overthrow the government.
They failed signatly, howev:r. Arbitra-
tors were appointed by the chamber of
deputies and by the miners. and the
troubfes were finally adjusted, appar-
ently to the satisfaction of all concerned

FORE WE GO FARTHE R.
It Is Certainly Most Dangerous
Ground We Are Treadine.
IT IS TIME WE LOOKED THE MAT-
TER IN THE FACE;
.......-
And Decided Just What We Had
Better Do.
Do Not Delay, For Delay May Be
Fatal. -
What is the matter?
Why do so many people, like Sena-
tor Plumb, Senator Zach Chandler,
Congressman Ray and Secretary Wind-
ham drop suddenly dead?
Only what is the matter with thou-
sands upon thousands of others, brain
and nerve exhaustion from overwork,
fret and worry and the cares and anxie-
ties of the pushing and hustling age in
which we live, and which finally end in
the dread paresis, insanity, heart fail-
ure. nervous prostration and sudden
death.
Men without number are straining
their brains and nervous systems in the
mad race after fortune and lame, and
exhausting their nervous and physical
energies, until sleepless nights, failing
power, complete nervous exhaustion,
paralysis, insanity or death must be the
inevitable end unless help from Some
source is received. ,
Thousands of women are overworked.
exhausted, worn out in nerve force and
power until they feel tired all the time.
Clerks, students, mechanics and labor-
ers, from close confinement. long hours,
strain upon the nerves, dissipation or
other causes,'are losing their vitality.
and becoming nervous and physical
wrecks.
You, reader. are rushing on blindly
to sure destruction. You are warned
every day and every hour of your im-
pending doom. How? By those strange
sensations, that dull, dizzy and bad
feeling head, that restlessness, irrita-
bihty and nervousness; by those more
or less sleepless nights, from which you
wake tired and unrefreshed; by the
weak, trembling, cold limbs, by the
langour and sense of nervous and phy-
sical exhaustion which grow upon you
more and more. These are danger
signals, and not to heed them is the
folly of a fool.

ney, Esq” of Gibson, N. Y.
“I was broken down with nervous
and physical prostration,” he says,
“before using Dr. Greene’s Nervura
blood and nerve remedy and life was a
burden. Now life is a joy, and sleep is a
luxury compared to it before taking
Nervura. I relish my food, and my
nervousness has left me ; so has the
numbness. I wish I could shout loud
enough so all the world could hear, and

icine has (low .2; me. It has made me
from a weak, trembling. nervous, irri-
table man, to one who feels he is on

Knights of Labor Advised to Vote Against
Democrats—Chairman Harrity, Govern-
or Flower and Governor Pattison Also
Denounced.
The Knights of Labor are up in arms
against the Democratic . candidate for
the presidency and his friends and mana-
gers; Gen ersl Master Workman Pow-
derly and others have advised working-
men to vote and work against the De-
mocracy for various reasons, but espe-
cially in regard to the treatment of the
organization by Chairman Harrity and
Governors Flower. of New York, and
Pattison, of Pennsylvania, in the case of
J 01111 Hughes, 2. member of the Knights
of Labor, who, in June, 1891, was tried in
Rochester, N. Y.. on a charge of extor-
tion. After being out; twenty-three
hours the jury stood seven to five for ac-
quittal. They were taken to the N a-
tional hotel for breakfast. On their re-
turn to the court house they found a ver-
dict of guilty within five minutes.
Hughes was sentenced to a. year at hard
labor in the penitentiary. An appeal
was taken. and bail was required in
£314,000. The judgment of the lower
court was sustained by the supreme
court, and Hughes went to prison.
Commenting on this, General Lecturer
Wright, a a public meeting in New
York, sai :
The governor of this great state rejected onr
petitions for pardon, spurned our representa-
lives. Vl'hst are we y: fin: to do about it?
\Yell. the executive board of 231 will remain in
executive session until after this election. life
are going to issue documents showing how the
laboring; men have been treated by the Dom-
ocmtic governors of Pennsylvania. Tennessee
and New York. “'e will get even with Na-
tional C‘ommiltcemun fluidity and his party.
The Knights of Labor is a political organiza-
tion ibis year, as the Democratic party will
learn on election day.
General Master Vv'orlmznn Powderly,
at the same meeting, showed how Hughes
was arrested in Pennsylvania without a
warrant and in spite of protests by
worl-dngmen. llr. I—Izzrrity, the present
chairman of the Democratic executive
committee, acting in his capacity as
secretary of state of Pennsylvania, re-
fused to aial them in the least. Tall-ring
cf the matter, Mr. Powdcrly said:
liarrity was there in Harrisburg at the time
as secretary of state. He hold all the papers
in the case. He lent no aid to the Knights.
There stood that “Rochester combine.” And
now this man Harri-1y stands here in this city
of workiugmen daring to ask its toilets, the
fellow workers of James Hughes, to vote the
Democratic ticlzzll Lately “‘1: have asked for
another favor from another Democratic exec-
utive. “he have gone to him in the attitude of
supplicants, Cl'lll’.‘l§lg before him, and we have ,
been insulted and spurned.
On Oct. 17 I wrote to Governor Flower ask-
ing him to intercede in behalf of Hughes. and
I expressed regret that he misunderstood the
language of the petition sent to him.telling
him that the word “demand” was used unad-
visedly and thoughtlesely. and that nothing
more than a request was intended. Flower
chose to ventilate his anger against the labor
organizations in an outrageous interview given -
to the press. If every American workingman
felt as I do over this conduct of the governor
of the state of New York, such'aman as Flower
would never again sit in the executive chair at.
Albany. ’ . ,
Those who were instrumental in puttin
Hughes into a. felon‘s cell claim that their
party is the party of the poor. of the working-
men. of the common people! The Democratic
party cannot fool us longer. We made Flower
the Democratic governor of a Republican
state. If you workingmen do your duty here
you will touch the Democratic party that they
must treat you as men and American citizens
when you ask justice: you will teach Flower
that you, as sovereign people. must not be in-
sulted and scorned; you will teach men like
Harrity that you possess intelligence and
cannot be deluded into voting for your ene-
mies. ,I cannot say one good word for the Dem-
ocratic party. and I am unable to understand
how any workingman can vote for its candi-
dates.
Mr. Powderly was frequently loudly
applauded for his vigorous denunciation
of the Democratic party.

The few Democrats who had the bad.
taste to question the accuracy of Com-

action was a boomerang. It stirred up

the matter, and they have obtained
statements from thousands of manu-
facturers, over their own names. show-
ing an increase both in wages and
production. These manufacturers are
