MEXICAN JUSTICE. Eale Pass, Tex., Aug. 1C. Six of the murderers of James Duval, an American citizen at Santa IJosa, Mexico, have been .sentenced to ten years' imprisonment each. A seventh man, who spoke disre speetfully of the dead man while in court, was sentenced to the same term, although not connected in the murder. THE C HATTSWOKTII DISASTER THE UESULT OK DISOBKDIENCE. Chattswoi th. 111., Aug. 10. Disobedi ence and obtuseness were the primary causes of the slaughter at Davis' crossing on Thursday morning. Had Section Foreman Coughlin obeyed the spirit of the letter of instructions he received from his superior officer and had some of the men, one of them in particular, who saw the lights on the railroad track for an hour on Wednesday nights, exerted them selves to the extent of a two mile ride on a hand car, the catastrophe would never have occurred. These were the primary facts developed by the coroner's jury which for seven long hours to-day examined witness after witness in its en deavors to secure some linht recardinjj the causes which led to the disaster. The inquiry took place in the public school building, and here the farmer jury de veloped facts and elicited details in a style which would have been creditable to a jury composed of experienced mem bers of the bar. A large number of witnesses testified that several residents of Piper City saw ft light burning on the track toward Chatsworth on the night of the disaster, but made no efforts to in vestigate the cause. Some of them thought it was the headlight of a locomo tive. Joseph Morris, a farmer living half a mile south of the culvert, swore that he saw two or three of the section men tiring the grass in close proximity to the bridge just before dark on Wednes day afternoon. After dark he saw a blaze in that direction big enough to make him think that a building was on fire. This testimony was corroborated by other farmers, and is contradictory to the testimony of Coughlin, which was to the effect thnt no fire had been lighted near the bridge. After the witnesses had been dismissed the iury held a secret consultation and it was de cided to bring the inquiry to a close to morrow. It is likely a verdict will be reached by noon.

The city council has held three special meetings this week, on Saturday, Mon day and Tuesday evenings. SuturJay evening was chietly devoted to hearing and receiving the report of Messrs. Hose water & Christy, engineers. These gen tlemen were present and submitted the detailed plans, specifications and esti- matcswhich they had prepared, showing what was necessary to properly sewer the citv and what it would cost The same was accompanied by an explanatory and advisory report. The estimate for a com plete system of storm sewers is $84,672, and for sewers of the separate system, $52,420.50; to which would be added the necessary expense for engineering and superintending, perhaps lO'o more. The estimate embraces 2$ m.les of storm sew crage and 13 J miles of the separate sys tern, mak'.ng in all 16 miles of sewerage The report, plans, etc., were referred to a committee. It is only expected to con struct a part of the sewe:-ng at present The plans and sptficatiops and estimates cover the ent're city. Monday evening the council devoted, aiter first adopting the report of Rose water & Christie and orde-ing them paid their $2,000. to a wrestle with the propo sition as to whether the city should as sist in grad'ng for the street car line, or in fact whether the street car company should be allowed to grade at all. After a good deal of discussion the street car company was pe-mitted to go ahead, and the council further appropriated $100 to be expended in improving the street at the point of the hill south of Heisel's mill and also just west of the top of Fairfield h 11. As soon as that question was disoosed of councilman Murphy called for the ordinance authorizing the city to issue paving bonds, but it was not on hand, much to his disgust. A motion was put to adjouin; Murphy op posed it and called for aye3 and nays, and heroically voted "uav," but he was alone in his vote and council adjourned. Several of the members expressed their dissatisfaction that nothing was done with the pavng bond ordinance, the mayor among the rest; and the meeting Tuesday even'ng was called for the spec ial purpose of acting on it. At the Tuesday night meeting Messrs. Dutton and McCallen were absent, all the other members being present. The pav ?ng bond crd:nance was the only busi ness introduced. It authorizes the city of Plattsmouth to ?ssue intersection pav ing bonds to the amount of $10,000 in denominations of $500; payable in 20 years, but redeemable a.ter a years from date on demand of the city. The bonds bear 5 interest, payable semi annually. On motion of Mr. Murphy the ru'es were suspended, the ordinance read three Umes and adopted; aud coun cil adjourned.

Prince De Vawongse and the four little Siamese princes have left New York en route across the continent. The cable pool is not yet perfected and rates may drop lower in place of being restored to 40 cents per word. The united labor convention is in ses sion at Rochester, N. Y. It is probable a full state ticket will be nominated. Blaine is in Ireland and it is announc ed he will make it a point to personally witness some evictions of tenants. The crop reports indicate a heavy fall ing off in the favorable corn outlook a month ago, owing to the heavy drought prevailing throughout the great corn re gion. Fierce forest fires have been raging in Belgium. The troops assisted by falling rains have checkedj them, but across the German frontier they are spreading rapid- iy. Major General Bash, pay master in the U. S. army has been suspended from duty and ordered home till he makes good 7. 300 dollars stolen from him by a cowboy at Antelope Srings Wyo. on March 18. Secretary Fairchild has opened the first list of bids offering the treasury govern ment 4 $ per cent bonds of 1891. Propo sals were received offering $5,463,000 at prices varying from 110 to 113. the low est offer was 260,000 at 110. It was ac cepted and all others refused. FRIDAY. Blaine has declined a banquet tendered him by the Lord Mayor of Dublin. The Irish land bill is still the leading question with the British cabinet. Rains have been falling very generally throughout Wisconsin, ending the drowth there. Simon Cameron attended a banquet given in his houor in London by Consu General Waller. Many distinguished Americans and Englishmen were present. Henry S. Ives &, Co. have made an as signment. Their liabilities are estimated at $20,000,000, with assets slightly in ex cess of that amount. It is reported from Rustchuk that Prince Ferdinand has abandoned his journey to Bulgari i in consequence of I urkish thieats to occupy that country. The west bound express on the South ern Pacific road was ditched and robbed thirty miles east of Tucson Arizona. The sheriff and posse are on the trail which leads the Rincon mountains. The funeral of the late Gen. A. W. Doniphan took place at Libertv, Mo. There was a very large attendance. A number of Mexican war veterans were present, some who had fought under him. Fred Hold was shot to death at Salt Lake in place of being hung, the laws of that territory allowing the condemned man to elect death by hanging or shoot ing. His crime was the murder of his benefactor in 1880, and the stealing of six horses and two wagons. SATURDAY. Prince Ferdinand has arrived in Bul garia, He was enthusiastically received at eyery point he has touched. French agents in Bulgaria arc instruct ed to have nothing to do with Prince Ferdinand and his government. It is asserted the money raised in America to help the Irish cause in Ireland only feeds and makes rich a few leaders. A fire in Pittsburg in the heart of the city burned the Masonic temple and oth er buildings. Loss is estimated at not lens than $1,000,000. A combination train on the Evansville & Indianapolis road went through a wooden culvert about 20 miles from Terre Haute, six passengers were injured, only one seriously. lyes creditors held a meeting in the oflice of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Day ton road, a resolution was adopted recommending creditors holding securi ties to take no action at present. The Chatsworth horror was not exag gerated in yesterdays report. Eighty-six dead bodies have been recovered. It is growing to be a common belief that the culvert was burned by a gang of train robbers for the purpose of wrecking the train for robbery. United States Senator Riddlebarger was fined $25 and committed to jail at Woodstock, Va, for contempt of court. A placard was paraded on the street re flecting on the judge in a case in which Riddlebarger is interested. Partizan feeling runs high. At Des Moines a constable attempted to arrest a man named Hardy for violat ing the prohibitory law when the latter struck him with a ball bat. The consta ble and his deputy commenced firing, and Hardy was shot twice, he is supposed to be dying. A bystander was also hit twice. Serious trouble is feared with the White River Utes in Colorado. A sheriff and posse attempted to arrest two rengade Utes under indictment for horse stealing. They were protected by the Chief Col- orow and his followers. A fight ensued and two Indians were killed. The rest returned to the mountains, the chief send ing couriers to his agency calling upon all his followers to join him. SUNDAY. Prince Ferdinand was banqueted at Rustchuck. Constantinople dispatches say Russia has taken action that will nullify the re cent events in Burgaria and yeto the as cension of Prince Ferdinand to the throne of that princepality. It is rumored in Glasgow that the yacht Thistle which left there for New York on July 25 is lost. One of the yacht owners, Bell, discredits the rumor. The Thistle started over to contest for the Americas cup. A Jew named Lipski was sentenced to death in London. The judge it is said is since convinced of the man's innocence of the crime and still refuses to reverse his decision. Thee queen has been peti tioned to grant the condemned man a respite.
