markable rase of brute intelligence was
seen here to-day. Last week two horses
were stolen from the farm of Mrs. Chand
ler, who lives just north of town. This
morning while out at the gate she was
surprised to see two animals come P
the road, followed by two men, oueou
horse back and the other in a road cart.
When they reached the gate the horses
turned in and the men informed Mrs.
Chandler that these must be her horses.
The men were Constable C, M. Wil
coxeu and C. D. King, both of Wap
pello couuty. They said that last Sim
day morning a farmer named Keuo,
living fourteen miles northeast of
Ottumwa, upon going to one of his
barns, said it had been occupied by
horses and men. Everything looked
suspicious, and Mr. lle'no determined
to follow the horse tracks iu the mud.
This he did. On coming to the town
of Eldou the tracks led him up to a
house occupied by a man named Iiur
naugh, and when Mr. Bono arrived be
saw two men, one with fresh lather on
his face, run out of the bouse and make
for the corn fields, (iatherini; help, in
cluding Mr. King, Keno followed the
two men and soon raptured them. One
proved to be George Burmiugh, a hard
rase, who has been iu the peniten
tiary a conpjo ol limes, and the oilier
man gave his niune as John Mor
gan. The firi-t named is a son
of the owner of the house he escaped
from. The horses were soon found, and
then the question was, were they stolen
and from whom? Tbe prisoners were
taken to Agency City and held with the
horses. Inquiries in tho surrounding
counties failed to elicit any information,
ami ol course the two prisoners declined
that they had not stolen the horses.
I'luallv Mr. King hit upon n novel pluu
Weduesduy morning. The two horses
were turned loose ut Agency City aud
allowed to go where they pleased. Con
stable Wilcoxsen and Mr. King followed.
The Rtceds traveled along pretty lively
night and day and were allowed entire
liberty, the two men keeping n safe dis
tance behind. Sometimes the horses
would cut across tho timber land, their
direction always being northeast. The
followers had no idea where this curious
proceeding would wind up. On they
came tlnoiiL-h town and country, night
aud day. It was a long ride, mid when
the horses reached Iowa Citv and nnssed
on through the city, tho two oflictrs
wondered where the trip would end.
They stuck to their work, however, con
vinced that the horses would at last
reach their home. It was with much
pleasure that they saw the animals turn
into Mrs. Chandler's yard this morning.
Sheriff Flether sent u deputy to secure
the prisoners.

Chattanooga, Tenn., September 21.
The grand barbecue and permanent
organ inst ion of the Chiekamauga
Memcrirl association took place yester
day at Crawfish Springs, on the edge of
the fnnious battle field, fully 25,000 per
sons being present. The blue and the
gray were together the past forgotten.
Governor Gordon, of Georgia, made the
address of welcome in an eloquent vein.
Iu the course of the speech he said:
"Speaking of those whom I am called
to represent I pledge their earnest co
operation iu the sacred mission which
convenes yon, and in all things which
pertain to the peace, welfare ond nuity
of tho American people. In their name
I proclaim their eternal fealty to the
American constitution, to the American
republic, to the American union of
states, from which they withdrew for
their safety, but which now, that tho
causes of dissensions are gone, they will
loyally and bravely defend for their
future protection. We ore here to unite
with you iu the final and eternal sepul
chre of sectional hostility."
The address was rescinded to by
General Kosecrans, who spoke feelingly
of the grand sight presented by the old
confederate and federal soldiers sitting
side by side, engaged in friendly con
verse. He prayed God that the day
would soon come when the Inst vestige
of feeling over the war would be eradi
cated, and believed this scene was an
angury of the glorious success of the
project to make of tho Chickamnuga
battle field a national park. A perma
nent organization of the association was
then affected. The officers are:
President, General J. T. Wilder, of
Tennessee; vico president, General Jo
seph Wheeler, of Alabama; Secretarj-,
General Marcus J. Wright, of Washing
ton; treasurer, General J. 8. Fiillerton,
of St. Louis. A board of directors was
elected, with an equal number of mem
bers from the union and confederate
side.

SiocxCrnr, Ia,, Septcmbet 21. At 2
o'clock yesterday morning the Palace
table of Kingsworth &. Buxton was
burned. On the second floor were kept
sixty-six horses, many of them splendid
roadsters, and the majority owned by
Frivate parties, and not one was rescued,
u the early slage of the fire their tramp
ing sounded like a herd of horses rush
ing across a bridge. About fifty car
riages on the first floor were removed
withont injury. The loss will lie not far
from $10,000, and ia well covered by in
surance. This is the third time the
stable ha burned within the lost few
year, but fewer horses perished on the
other occasion.

Washisuton, Sept. 19. An enthu
siastic admirer of the late General John
A. Logan observed in a conversation
that Mrs. Logan would make a good
commissioner of pensions. The sugges
tion was repeated so many times that it
was seriously discussed by several of her
friends, despite the imitossibility of a
woman holding the position. A reporter
who called on Mrs. Logan ond broached
the subject was told this:
"I would not consider such an idea for
a moment and do not think that the
president or anyone iu power has ever
clone so either. I have too keen an ap
preciation of the duties and responsibil
ities of the office nud of my own unfit
ness to assume them ever to think of it
for a moment, even if the place were
proffered me, which is absnrdedly im
probable. I think the office of commis
sioner of pensions is one of the best
gifts tho government has to offer in
point of importance. In my opinion it,
requires a man of marked ability to till
that position. I think there will be no
diflieuliy m findiug good meu for the
place.

in which it will be presented on trial in
behalf of the defense is a number of
letters by Miss Lecarron. daughter of
the notorious witness iu the Parnell
case, to her affianced husband in Chi
cago. These letter have been written from
London at brief intervals ever since
Miss Lecarron joined her father in this
citv last winter. The story outlined in
the letters is to the effort that Lecarron
aud iiurliugam, with whom he was in
partnership on the North Side, were
both spies; that Dr. Crouiu learned
their real character, and in order to
get a fuller insight into their plans
permitted them to think he could be
hired. He apireutly accepted their
proposition that be should enter the
American branch of the l-.ngiiMi
secret service, aud obtained all the
information without giving any in re
turn. They became suspicious and
songht to obtain from him certain pa
pers giveu in l.is supposed character as
soy. He refused to give them up.
Meanwhile Lecarron was summoned to
England to testify against Parnell.
Burlingam was U11 to obtain the docu
ments, but Cronin refused to yield
them and threatened exposure of Eng
lish practices in America. It was re
solved to rob him of the pajers, and it
wss in that attempt that the doctor was
killed. Burlingam has since sold out
his drng store aud disapienrcd.

story iu substance and adds that in op

reporter produced the Chicogo corres
pondent of Miss Eeearron. His name
is George 10. May, a clerk in a sporting

several thousand tons of rock slid from
Cape Diamond, at the end of LMifferin
teimre tn Chnmiilain street, 300 feet

dwellings. Up to midnight six bodies
had been taken from the ruins.
Thomas Farrell and two of his chil
dren also twocbildien named ISurkeai.d
one unknown child, Kartell's mother-in-law,
Mrs. Allen and her husband are
still in the ruins.
About twenty-five persons have been
removed from the dibris badly injured.
Home have bn ken arms and legs and
others are badly crushed and mutilated.
It is supposed that at least fifty per
sons are yet tinder the ruins.
Tho debi is rov-ers the, road ill a solid
masi some o00 feet iu length and from
fifteen to twenty-live feet high. Jt is
impossible b say at present how many
are dead aud wounded. Every one is
working heroically and under difficul
ties, as the night is intensely dark and
the electric light wires ure down.
Cries of "help, help," are heard from
beneath the debris, but no help can be
given.
Very little progress is being made in
recovering the bodies, owing to the
stupendous luaas of rock covering tho
ruins.
Tho body of a woman named Mrs.
Harrison has just been pulled out of
tho ruins.
More rocks ore falling and it is feared
the whole boulder forming the highest
noiut iu Quebec will give way. I
1:30 a. m. The- mass of rock de
tached from the cliff's side left a vacant
space of extraordinary dimensions
under Ihiffcriu terrace and that great
promenade is now unsafe.
Thirteen corpses and sixteen wounded
havo been taken out. '1 he iH-cuninry

Bostox, Mass., Sept. St. A special
from Quebec, timed midnight, savs it is
known that at loast 200 dead bodies still
remain nnder the pile of rock and de
bris. The names of the dead so far ru
covered are: Thomas Farrell ami two
children, Charles I'ois, Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas Allen, James Edwards, L. Ed
wards, Alphonse Tredesu, H. Weight,
NaKlenn Tredenu, O. S. Neville. Res
cuing parties are hard at work, but aro
meeting with accidents, as huge masses
of rock still continue to fall from the
cliff, Tho latest persona rescued are.
Miss Mary Caldwell, Thomas Bnrrigun,
a boy named Berrigan and Mrs. Black.
All are badly bruised. Mrs. Black
stales that her husband was
killed at the door of their house,
nnd tiiat his body is still in debris. This
morning tho work of excavation still
goes on at tho scene of tho lernblo land
slide. Among thoso who are still
thought to bo beneath tho ruins ara
Charles Allen nnd wife, Mrs. Stevens,
Mrs. Henry, ltichurd Maybury and wife,
Mrs. Ii. L. Biiwkoii. 1. Kcmn and fami
ly, Michael K. Leahy aud a number of
children. The loss simlained by the sur
viving victim of the disaster is very
great. Some of the workingnien who
are deprived of their homes lose nil their
furniture and other effects, even their
stimuier earnings, aud many are left
virtually penniless. The injured have
been nearly all removed to tho Hotel
Dien. William Powers, wife and child
were saved by tho men of the battery,
who, aided by a detachment of tho
cavalry school, effected quite a number
of rescues. Tho list of killed so far as
known is as follows:
Thomas Farrell and three children;
two children named Burke, one child
named Bradley, a child of P. Fitzger
ald, Mrs. Bracken, Mrs. Stephen Burke
Henry Black, William Black, Thomas
Nolan and Mrs. Heady. The wounded
whose names are to be had number
fifty-five. The dead and wounded nro
still being taken out of the ruins, but
their names havo not been ascertained,
lhe work of rescuing victims is goiii"
on vigorously. The members of tho
Black family were buried twelve feet
below the snrfaco of the debris. All
escaped death with tho exception of
Mr. Black. When those who were not
Killed were taken from the ruins, it was
found that they had ail received injur
ies more or lesa serious, one man be-in"
so disfigured his friends could hardly
recognize him.
The scene of tho terrible disaster is
being visited by thousands, who block
the siugla street, making it a difficult
task to move anywhere. A largo force
of men are engaged in the work of
searching the ruins, but the work is not
under any head, and consequently not
