A RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Nine Persons Injured on the E.
C. , St. Joe & C. B. Hallway.
The train that left this city Wed
nesday afternoon for St Lotus , over
the Kansas City , St Joe and Coun
cil Blufld railway , met with quite a
serious accident about half-past one
o'clock Thvrsday morning , near
lalan , forty miles below St. Joe. A
bridge at that point gave way , after
the engine and tender had passed
safely over , and precipitated
the baggage car and smoking
car into the creek below. The pas
senger coach and sleeper remained
on the track all right. . Nine per
sons were injured , three of them
being hurt very seriously.
The baggageman , Klein by name ,
found himself , aftr the accident ,
sitting on the1httik of the stream ,
fifty feet from his car. He didn't
know how he got there , or how he
escaped being smashed flat as a
slap-jack by the fifty pieces of bag
gage. As it was he was pretty badly
used up , and as he did not put in an
appearance immediately , he was
reported dead. He is not dead yet ,
however , having arrived here last
night.
Conductor Wolfert had his foot
badly crushed.
One half the bridge gave way ,
and by some it is thought that the
cars must have jumped the tract ,
and torn it down.
Spontaneous Combustion in the V. F.
Coal Honse.
Considerable excitement was
caused at the "Union Pacific shops
yesterday about ten o'clock by
the discovery of dei.se clouds ot
smoke issuing from the coal house ,
in which there are about two thou
sand tons of coal. Ou exami
nation no flames , however , could
be discovered. The Durant fire engine -
gino was called into service , and the
coal was flooded , a stream of water
bemgkept turned on foroveran hour.
Cars were also run up on each side
of the house , and loaded with coal ,
so that the fire , if there was any ,
could bo reached ; but none could
be found. It is thought that the
smoke was caused by spontaneous
combustion. Had it been in the
njghtf the coal would have prqba-
bly tqken flrp , an4 a , Disastrous COUT
flagration might have ensued. .

Mr. Bye's Eeply to the "Union. "
EDITOR BEE :
I wish to say in reply to last eve
ning's Union , which states that spe
cial mail agent Hawley could not
find sufficient proof against Yost to
convict him before the Postal De
partment , that this is a question.
If Mr. Hawley presented the case
at the Department in the same way
that he did before Yost , Furay and
Mr. Estabrook , my attorney , then is
Mr. Yost in a bad boat. He sum
med up the case in this manner :
The firbt charge speculating on
postal clerks' salaries , Mr. Yost ad
mitted that he did while deputy
postmaster and while postmaster.
When asked by Hill to continue the
business he refused , as he said it
would get him into trouble. There
fore , it will be seen that my first
charge was sustained by Yost's own
admissions.
The second charge speculating
on mail contracts and defrauding
the government Hawley said I
sustained by proving that there
were two frauds , one against the
government , arising from the dif
ference between the two contracts ,
when the original contract could
have been transferred to Swcezy , a
responsiblp man ; and the other by
beating Stephenson out of $75.00 ,
when he was entitled to the contract
without paying any bonus , as he
was the next highest bidder.
Tire third charge allowing Pattee
to cancel his own stamps was ad
mitted without any evidence.
The fourth charge making false
vouchers and having clerks sign the
pay-roll for more money than he
was entitled to receive was sus
tained by evidence and by Mr.
Yost's own pay-roll This charge
Hawley stated was the most serious
one.
one.Yost
Yost also admitted , without evi
dence being produced against him ,
that he had had a clerk in his office
drawing two salaries from the gov
ernment at the same time ; that he
had received silver-plate from Pat-
tee ; that he had turned over to
Pattee letters of inquiry about tbe
lottery for Pattee to answer.
Now I do not know what Mr.
Hawley's report to the Department
at Washington is , as I have an an
swer to my letter a king for a copy
of it , from the second assistant post-
njaster general , stating that Haw-
ley's report was not handed in , but
that they would serill 1P ° a COPV
when they received it.
I know that tbe present situation
of affairs is all very nice for Mr.
Yost and the Union , which seems to
be the only paper that has the cheek
to defend him and all other frauds
and corruptions ; but the day will
come when the postal outfit will
"squeal. "
The Union clears Yost in the
samp > yay ti at Ifawley cleared
Furay thas is , before hearing half
the evidence. The only thing that
the department has against me is a
petition hpaded by Yost , and signed
by most of the State officers ,
demanding that I should be
removed frprn office ; and if he re
ceived the signatures jn the same
tricky manner that he did that of
Mr. Bristol , the pension agent , I am
inclined to think that he will get
} iis foot into it. Bristol says Yost
came jnto | 4is office one morning in j
n great hurry and said he wanted
him to sign o petition to.havp . Wil
liams promoted to a postal clerkship.
Bristol signed the petition without
reading it , and the next day he was
surprised to h.par that it was a peti
tion to have me removed.
I do not caie anything about thp
'reoonl" which the postal ring
Ixes up hero about me. My official
ecord on file at the Department
ivill show exaptly how I stancj. I
mvtt done nothing but obey in-
itructions. If I am removed for
hat , I care not ; but that is not the
eason , I was put out ; it was be-
: ause they could not make a tool of
ne , and compel me to keep my
nouth shut They know it as well
3 I do ; and I intend to let the
lublic khow it.
One thing is certain , that if Haw-
ay ever docs inakp q report , which
3 doubtful , and sums up the case in
ccordance with the evidence , Mr.
Tost' postoffiqe and political goose j
i cooked for all clmc to oome.
As to my Ignoring the govern-
lent , I deny the charge. I had
ard work to get Mr. Hawley to see
jo witnesses who were examined.
There were porno flat } he would
and see after f hafj
iked him to. The reason
lat I tpok the testimony he
re a justice was tp prompt myself

OUR ASHLAND LETTER.
[ Correspondence of THE BEE. ]
ASHLAXD , Neb. , Aug. 28.
EDITOR BEE :
Ashland Is quiet and business
rather dull ; but little wheat coming
Into market , owJng to the low prices
now paid for graim Of all new en
terprises of interest in the agricul
tural department and of the farmers ,
Ashland has one which will interest
that class of people. Since Messrs.
Dean & Wilson have their flax
mill in full blast it has created
a great deal of interest among tli
farming community , and now they
are devotingiore time and interest
in the raising oTflax than ever be
fore , as it pays much better and is
less trouble than small grain.
Messrs , Dean & Wilson have sowed
several hundred bushels of seed
this year , wliiclr has proved a suc
cess , besides they have loaned to
farmers to sow which they buy by
the acre or ton.
Flax which is pulled is more
profitable , as it can be put up in
better shape. It is hauled to the
mill iu shief , and the seed is shelled
off by machinery without tangling
it , then it is spread out to rot , after
which it is broke , then put up in
bales and sent to the Eastern mar
ket , ( Massachusetts ) . That which
is cut and threshed is more tangled.
It is bought , and after going
through some process as that
pulled it is baled and sent
East for making upholstery and
ropes. The tormer is iited
formatingthread , and for weaving.
Mr. Wilson formerly from Mas
sachusetts has a lifetime experience
in the busineas now engaged in ,
and is well adapted to his busi
ness. There will bo more Flax
raised in Saunders County next
year than ever before , as the far
mers are well satisfied it will pay.
The crop now on hand at the mill
is immense for Nebraska. A suf
ficient amount to run all year or
until the next crop comes in.
Their machinery is run by water
power with an abundance of water
to run day and night the year round.
Ashland being unable to get up any
sensation the quietude of the pleas
ant city was aroused early this morn
ing by a pair of poney's and moat
wagon being missed. It appears
there were two men around the sta
ble yesterilay , who were doubtless
making themselves familiar with
the place , and about two o'clock
last night the stable was entered by
a small door which was not fast
ened , or ly a stick of wood to
hold it shut. The team
was supposed to have been
harnessed while in the stable , and
taken out on the back part of the
lot or alley , where the wagon stood.
The teanf was owned by WJlliam
33utt , who started in pursuit early
this rcprnjngwitbr assjstants They
' '
will malje it lively'for the partles'if
they should bo so fortunate as to
catch them , and will doubtless
make short work of it.
The weather is very hot , with
prospects of rain ; we had some rain
with hiirh wind last night.
The 27wie3 and Republican are
flourishing ; friend Andrews , editor
of the Republican , is filling his posi
tion with Ijonor t6 hjs profession.
