Special DlspaUh to Tbe Bee.
MINNEAPOLIS , Minn. , April 1 10
p. m. Information was received this
ifternoon that the passenger train go
ing north yesterday on the St. Paul ,
U. & M. road collided with a delayed
freight tra n , six miles north of here
The caboose took fire , and one man
was burned to death , and eleven
wounded. A later dispatch says two
men were killed and ten wounded , but
the manner ia not given. It appears
that there was some misunderstand
ing about the time of trains , as both
were running out of time , on account
of the heavy snow where the collision
occurred. The caboose of the train ,
In which were twelve men , was mashed
so the doors could not be opened , and
it took fire. Two men were burned to
death , and nil the others injured ,
some seriously.

A Heartless Father.
SpecUl dltpttcb to Th Bee.
CHICAGO , April 2 l.a. m , At the
Inquest yesterday en the remains of
Frank E. James , who shot himself
Thursday , it was developed that the
act was caused .by the persistent per
secution on the part of his father and
relatives , because the boy married
Miss Delia Force against their wishes.
The father Is connected with the firm
of Marder , Luse & Co. , where his son
waa also employed , but the father had
him discharged after his marriage ,
about a month ago. Then he got
work at another type foundry , but hii
father secured his discharge there also.
His friends refused to allow him to
take his wife to see them , and becom
ing disheartened after bis second dis
charge , shot himself. Hia father re
fused at first to defray ihe expenses of
the funeral , and when the young wife
said she had no money , he suggested
that the body could go to the potters-
field. The other members of the fam
ily acted In a most heartless manner ,
but finally agreed to employ an un
dertaker.

A Lively Dialogue Between
Senators'Voorhees ' and
SENATE.
SpecUl Dispatch to The Bee.
WASHTHOTOW , April 1. It was
moved that the secate proceed to the
consideration of executive business ,
and that being lost , Lamar arose to
make a speech. He re viewed the sit
uation in the senate and arraigned
the republicans for the obstruction of
public business. Something else
should rule the senate than the sordid
determination of the constitutional
majority. The minority h d the pow
er to resist oppression and mean to
exercise it. Republic ns dated not
give a reason for their desire to change
the organization of the senate. It was
not in furtherance of c'vil service prin
ciplea , nor in reward fir gallant ser
vice in the confederate xrmy. Be
taunted the opposiii > n to divulge the
true reason. Mr. Lamar gave way
for the recitation of the executive
communication , and Mr. Pendleton
Interposed another motion that the
senate go into executive session. This
motion was alto lost. The republican
party contained olemet.ts in sympathy
with southern ideas , but they could
never gain a footing there by gifts of
federal spoils. Senator Lamar here
closed his speech prematurely , on ac
count of sheer exhaustion , and stated
that fan was unable to make further
replv at present
The same line of debate adopted by
Mr. Hoar was taken up by hia col
league , Mr. Dares , who recalled the
hiatory of a northern capitalist who ,
relying on the statement that he had
only to kuow the people of the south
to love them , went to Mississippi to
make a home and business for hia fam
ily. He refused to abandon any of
his political principles. His factories
were burned , he had to put iron shut
ters on -buildings to preserve his
workmen while they slept , and now
he had been compelled to abandon
the field.
Senator George pronounced the
whole story an unfounded myth. The
senator from Massachusetts might
have been so informed , but his refusal
to give dfttea cast a shadow of sus
picion. .He defied the.ieaAtac.aru Jii
Informant to give proof of the charge.
Ho warned all northerners against
placing credence in the stories of life
In Mississippi. There was little or no
truth in them.
Mr. Dawes informed the senator
that he held in his hand the names
and date of the incidents referred to
by him , and could give them to him
if he thought beat.
Mr. George thought he had a right
to i..i3sf the evidence in the case , and
should totally disbelieve it aa long as
the evidence was withheld.
Mr. Hill made a long speech , in the
coutse of which he regretted that the
sanato had again buun subjected to
taking op these southern outrages ,
which were generally f the.
Mr. Logan reminded eim of General
Sheridan's report , containing the
names nf 2,000 people murdered in
the south. '
Mr. Hill gave way to Senators Voor-
hees and Butlerwho , said they did not
believe iu the truth of Gaa. Sheri- ,
dan'a report. The hitter pointed out I
the fallacy of ai.y senator fastening
upon any senators of the aouth the re- ,
aponsibility of murders committed .
within its borders , any more than |
npon northern senators the responsi
bility of the fatal effects of the labor .
riots. |
Mr. Logan tried to point out the j
difference between kuklux and militia ,
and became greatly excitud , as did
also Senator Butler , in attempting to j
reply. Each taunted the other with j
'
trying to awe his opponent with' bravado - '
vado , and neither appeared to be
greatly Reared.
Mr. Logan , la proceeding , related j
an incident of a republican boy in
Florida who waa taken from his horae
and hia mane and tail were cut off.
This stirred up Senator Farley to
ask whether it waa the boy or horae
that lost hla mane and tail. '
Thia led Senator Hill to ask if it
waa not time this non ense stupp-d.
The senator from Illinois , however ,
did nut think so , and continued fora
q'latt-r of an hour longer , and agiin
brcama ao excited that he begin to
talk ubiu' . war between republicans on
one side and bourbon democrats on
the other. Members on the demo
cratic sidu made sport of his lan
guage , and exasperated him still more.
One after another aroae to reply , and
the senator had quite a hornet's neat
about hia eara. When hia strength
waa domewhat spent , Mesirs. Beck
and Yoorheea occupied Borne time ID
having read a journal and newspaper
article bearing upon the present ques
tion. An editorial from The Phila
delphia Telegram was incorporated
by Mr. Voorhees aa hia own speech ,
for the sake of having it read. It re
ferred to Mahone as & democratic
renegade , a repnliatlontst and one en
gaged in a bargain with the republi
cans.
cans.Mr. . Mahone asked him If these
personalities were part of his speech.
Mr. Yoorhees at first said he dis
claimed tnr. speech , because he did
not care to create any personal feeling ,
but Mr. Mahone pressed him ao that
he finally replied , "Well , th-n , I do ;
I endorse every word of it demo
cratic renegade , bargainer , all. " .
"Then , " replied Mr Mahone "I

coHEurta's EXPLANATION.
A column editorial In The Wash
ington Republican yesterday morning ,
inspired by Conkllng , denies the
truth of a recently published inter-
f oci
view between the senator and the
president In regard to the New York
nominations. It denies that Garfield
ever mentioned to Conkling or James
Platt an intention to nominate Rob
ertson for 'fho collectorahip of New
York , and says they had no idea of
such nomination , until the nomination
waa seat to the senate , the president
never having even foreshadowed its
possibility to them.
Adjournment of the senate was
effected yesteHay until Monday , to
accommodate Vice-President Arthur ,
who started for New York last night.

ROCKFOKD , 111. , April 1. The rail

ing more and more interesting and
exciting each moment. The MUwau-
kee company's engine , which hsdbaen
tandin on the trackt'fceTJr tte BWit'ffi'
to the main line for 24 hours , is near
ly dead , owing to an insufficient sup
ply of in her boiler. Daring the night
kt > r drivers were fastened together by
a cablechain , to prevent the Chicago
Iowa company's train moving it , but
ai the ateam was getting low , and the
engine being without an injector ,
they were compelled to open the
switch and run the driver off the
track , where it now stands Mr. L
A. Morse still has possession of the
depot , while the Milwaukee company
holds the yarcs. The Caic-tgo and
Iowa company hsTe destroyed a large
amount of property by tearing up cul
verts and chopping away about three
rods of trestle work. A large gang
of men commenced on the rail
road b idgs that spans Hick river ,

ROOKFOBD , April 1 4 p. m. There
is no chauge in the fight for the pos
session of the Rockford and H > che1le
railroad between the Chicago , Milwau
kee and St. Paul and Chicago and
Iowa companies. Etch party main
tains its partial possession , the Chica
go and Iowa depending upon legal
means for the restoration of
its control. Tne feeling generally is
that the action of the Milwaukee com
pany is a high handed outrage , and
should the officers uf tha Chicago and
Iowa give the least encouragement , a
body of determined man large enough
to take poueasiou of the field would
soon bo on the ground , though the
aid of the governor hns been in
voked by the Chicago and Iowa people.
One ludicrous feature of the fcffair was
when the belligerents came to blows
and ( he Milwaukee fellow * retreated
to safe ground , and the I'jwa men
iept on fighting among themselves ,

enemy.

not left their post since the fight com
menced.
LATER. The ehriff headed a posse
and weat last ni ht to the depot and
aea'm demanded possession , but was
refused. Tha doors were then smashed
in with axes. This caused a stampede
of some fifty man in the depot , placed
there by the Chicago & Iowa company
to defend the depot. At the first
amaah of the door they took to their
heela , and vacated. Agent Morse then
gave up , but Ettinger attempted to
show fight. Ho was pitched out head
