Krnm toTnn BIK. : ] A line point has been
rained by the dotnocratio Independents of
tills count ; , which will bring Into dispute a
question that has never before been raised In
this stain under the operation of the Aus
tralian ballot lnw. In August the democrats
ot the county mot In convention under u call
bv the rcgulnily elected chairman and secre
tary. The convention endorsed the Indepen
dent ticket and the proper return was made
to the county clerk to insure having the
nnmoa printed on the tickets to bo used , The
action of the convention in endorsing what Is
termed a mongrel ticket was resented by the
straight democrats.
Last Saturday , under n call of a committee ,
nnothor democratic coavon Ion was hela and
n full slmon pure democratic ticket nomi
nated , which was also reported to the county
clork. Tno strength and feeling mani
fested in Saturday's convention rather
surprised the oilier wing of the party
which had gone , bog and baggage , into the
Independent camp nr.d today notice was fllcd
witb the county clerk to the effect that nn
injunction would bo asked restraining that
olllccr from having the names offltho
candidates of Saturday's convention printed
on the ticket , holding that the convention was
not legally called and that Its actions were
not in accordance with tbo law. As the feel
ing is nlrcauj running high because of the
out and out democrats daring to nomiuato u
ticket a lively light is In prospect.

Derailment at' n Central Pacific
Train liy WoiiliI-br-Uotlbcrq.
Coirix , Cal. , Oct. 12. The westbound
fast mail train on the Central Pacific loft the
tracit thrco miles west of hero this morning.
The train consisted of four sleeping car ] ,
ono baggage and two mail car. . A sleeper
broke from the train and rolled down an em
bankment of about IHty foot. The porter of
this car was badly injured. The train had
between eighty and 100 passengers , many of
whom weio scratched and bruised , but no
fatalities are thus far reported. The cause
of the accident was the loosening of a rail
ou n curve , which is believed to bo the work
of unknown parties.
Investigation showed that an attempt had
been made to wreck the train , Spikes had
been drawn from seven of tbo outside rails
on the outer edco of the embankment , Just nt
u point where the track makes a curve. No
spot bettor adapted to the plot could have
boon selected , and It was evidently selected
in the hope that the engineer , fireman and
employes in the baggage and mail cars would
bo killed ns soon us the forward part of the
train struck the loosened rails. Then throe
cars could bo looted , and ns they carried n
great quantity of mail , the plunder would
have been very prolltablo. It was also found
that tbo angle plate used to strep tbo rails
together had been pried on * and
Jammed under the rail. The passengers in
ono of the coaches caught u glimpse of one of
the would-be-robbors as ho rushed off.
Hail road Dcctoctivo True is already at
work upon the caso. The Dalton
gang ate supposed by many to have bad n
hand in it. It was a miracle that no lives
were lost' The Hack is now clear and trains
are running ou time. Among these injured
were Mrs. Schonck of Denver , who had her
forehead cut ; George Pritcbard of Missouri ,
a contusion over the eye ; C. Coggswell ,
Nownric , N. J. , contusion of the back.
The Central Pucillc company has offered n
reward of 5,000 each lor the arrest and con
viction of the party or parties implicated ir.
causing the derailment.

Lo.vno.v , Oct. 12 , [ Now York Herald
Cable -Special to Tun BBE. ] Parncll is
dead and burled and the Pnrnollltcs nro on
their beam ends without their lender. They
nro like so many straws blown by the wind ,
they talk like schoolgirls when you ask them
to explain what their future political course
will bo. At this hour , 7 In the evening ,
they are like n rudderless ship.
John Ucdman , admittedly the best man
nmong them , has nothing to say. Ho wants
the leadership , but probaoly knows that ho Is
not strong enough to quench the spirit of
envy that his election as leader would create.
Timothy Harrington , tbo next strongest man
and head of the league , is in a lamentable
condition of Indecision. Ho and his
comrades had , n mooting this mornIng -
Ing to docldo whether or not the
Parnollito organ should continue to live.
They arrived at no decision and all Harrlng-
zen could say was that bo thought the publi
cation of the paper would bo continued.
Touching the future political course Harring
ton could only say "that will bo decided nt
tonight's mootiug nt the National club. " I
said , "but surely your speakers know what
they would say before the meeting will
open ! " Harrington in a hesitating way
said , "I will toll you our decision at 1 : UO
tonight. "
Governed by Sentiment.
'Todav the matter Is the Parncllltos , rather
than take the bull by the horns , prefer to bo
quieted by the conduct of tonight's meeting ,
hoping that it will show them n way out of
their dlnlcultios. Cool headed and thoroughly
informed , men hero describe the political
prospect this way : A wcolc or mouth , per
haps even thrco months , sentiment will play
a strong part. Parnoll has Just. died.
His virtues will bo remembered and his
faults forgotten , then will como nn inning
for practiclo politics. The Pnrnullltes , with
out a lender , u creed or n farthing , will go to
the wall. Their leader and creed were taken
from them nt ono blow and their source of
revenue disappeared nt the same timo. They
are penniless. Most of them never had any
money and nearly all of them were and
nro paid servants and have made moro
out of politics than they over did out of any
thing else. None of them are men of striking
ability. They wore never anvthing but fol
lowers. The general belief is that they
ncfer will bo anything else. They can do
nothing , oven to the injury of Ireland's pros
pects , without money. This they cannot got
hero and they see llttlo prospect of gottinz
it from America. The coolest of them see
but one thing to dote join hands with their
former colleagues.
y uerly Hopelesa
They nro divided , but were they as solid
as a rock they could make little headway.
Their ono hope now is In the memory of
Paruell. They point to the size and charac
ter of his funeral. It was n line funeral , but
small In comparison with their hopes
and their estimates. Parnoll and
his old followers are not in
the same boat. They are of llttlo consequence
quence ; apparently ho still is. Thousands
went to Glasnevln cemetery today to look at
his grave. The weather was delightful.
The space around the grave had been made
secure by ropes and posts. A space lif teen
feet square was covered with llowors. Many
were under glass. Within a radius of 100
yards of the grave not a blade of
grass Is to bo seen , the closely shorn
turf has been ground to mud aud never
grow again until It has bs < ; n seeded.
The Pornellites In parliament point to this
us an evidence of popular favor. It may bo
for Parnell , hut not for them. They hold a
mooting this afternoon to docldo upon tbo
course to bo taken at Wright's mooting.
They talked and talked and came to no con
clusion. Are they animated by any personal
motives ! The mooting nt the National club
began at S o'clock , It was attended only by
Parnellleos.
Amounted to Nothing.
The meeting amounted to nothing. There
were no speakers of prominence , In fact it
might bo entitled a sort of blind , for while it
was in progress the Purnolllto parliamentary
part wcro holding n meeting in the rooms of
the National league. I called there by
appointment with Timothy Harrington
nt 10:30. : Ho said n number of
Dublin pressmen were standing about the
door. To thorn he had paid no attention. In
an hour ho said ho would have something
shortly before midnight. The Parncllltos
gave mo the following manifesto :
Iielund has lost her leader , hut the cause of
Ireland's freedom remains.Vo h ivo a duty
to the living and the dead. That duty Is to
maintain , elect and unsullied , thu ttus of
national Independence. Von , tbo people of

honor and safety of your political cause. Vou

under the lead of our Illustrious chief.
In Sight ol'the 1'roinlneil Lund.
Animated by his spirit and guided by his
clear Intelligence and tlrmncss of soul , no
carried the Htru Kluto thu I'olnt at which the
dawn of victory was seen by all men. In an
unfortunate hour a majority of the Irish pco-
ple , at the bidding of an Kngllsh htatos-
mnn , hroKo from our tanks , abandoned
the Hag of Independence und arraigned
themselves and became the satellites
of a British statesman. We who address you
refused to become parties to their treason

maintained Intact , our allegiance is to thu
independent national party of Ireland. Wo
are convinced ( hut our people would justify

Ing on your devotion to Irish nationality ,

Nr.w YOUK , Oct. 12. This Is a season of
cyclones and lifo afloat U attended with peril
aud much physical discomfort. The Alaska ,
a day overdue , has not yet been heard from ,
ana the Augusta Victoria was not sighted
till early this morning. The Umbria , ono of
the host storm doliors of thn Cunard line , duo
yesterday morning , was not reported off
Sandy Hook until lost night. The two vessels
report having met a number of cyclones.
The Augusta Victoria arrived at her dock
shortly before noon. Her ofllcors reported
that from October 4 to 9 she experienced
heavy westerly gales , 'with tremendously
high seas , The steamer sustained no great
damage , but several passengers were thrown
down anil n number of them bad their arms
or logo broken. Eight or more were severely
cut about the head.
The Umbria also reported bad weather.
The steamer sustained no damage , but a lew
o ( the passengers were Injured. During the
greater part of the trip of the Augusta Vic
toria not a passenger was ullowou on dock.
During the whole vovngo her commander
never slept. Ilo was on the bridge
day ami night nud it was the
unanimous vote of all on board
that to his wonderful seamanship and skill In
handling the great vessel was duo the snloty
of the ship and passengers. During four
days her decks wore under water most of the
timo. The seas worohko mountains and the
vessel pitched and plunged violently with
every shock.
In the steorasjo compartment of the Au
gusta Victoria tbo mUory was very groat.
The place was crowded to suffocation. At
every lurch of thu ship the steerage passen
gers' were thrown to the. floor , and frequently ,
In trying to rise ns the vessel righted herself ,
they were hurled back again and not n few
received nasty bruises. Kilomciuv Sploroch
and Anna Bnrtovn , striking tholr bonds
together , .voro stunned. There were eight
een members of the Enh family in the steerage -
ago and not one of them escaped without a
bruise.
Ou the 8th the storm was nt Its worst , and
during the entire day the main deck
was under water. The passengers were not
allowed ou dock all that , day and many moro
accidents oecurrod. A Mrs. White , a saloon
passcnuor , and her daughter , a young girl ,
were thrown across tha cabin by ono lurch of
the ship and both had their right arms broken.

WASIIIXOTOX , D.C.Oct. 12. The Illth day of
tbo ecumenical Methodist council opened
with Bishop Hood of the African Methodist
Episcopal /.ion church of Fnyotto , N. C. , in
the chair.
The opening services of the great council
were conducted by thrco colored mon. The
topic for tbo morning session was "Tho
Church and Ilor Agencies.1
Bishop H. S. Foster of Massachusetts , pro
ceeded to address the council on "Tho Re
sponsibilities ana Qualltlcatlons of n
Preacher : "
It was not Ills part to rnltornto the story of
the now testament. Ho nmy consider his en-
vliontnonts and the people ho addressed. Iln
must bo nblo to recognise the obstructions
tlmt stood In the way of Ills mission. The
Christian pulpit was boiinit to muster all
knowledge mid approach the human intuit
through nil Its avenues. I'rcnchorH become at
times Imhocllo In their olTorld by lonsonofn
lack of knowledge us to how to get ut tholr
mission. No mini could think of (3od uiulor-
standlimly who did nut understand Ills power
us mnnlfeslod In Ills works. So , wflon thjso
to whom ho pioacho < l eonio to the teacher
with doubts , ho should bu able to grap
ple with those doubts ! to overcome
them and Miow thorn tbo ' way to
the truths or the gospel. The preacher
should cat of all knowledge ; tonuli him where
you would bo should bo electric In his power
of lighting up the minds of men. [ .Hoar , boar. ]
The preacher came to now bom minds groping
for the trnthbiingtiuthtoatiinn ; , undent him
to bollovo It , and bo was conquered , The
pioachorwas to unfold to young consciences
the grout scheme of redemption ; the myster
ies of their GUM consciences. How little
preaching thnro was that brought men face to
fueo with thomsnhcs ; wo btoiight them face
to face with their horrid sins.
At this point the gavel foil and Bishop Fester -
tor rotlrcd from the platform amid great ap
plause.
Duties of Minister * .
Hev. John Bond of tno Wesleyan Moth-
oalst church , London , followed Bishop Fos
ter on the same subject.
The preachers , ' business [ ho said ] may some
times bo Ilko that of John the llapllst , to re-
bulo the follies and sins of his generation to
w.irn evil dorrs of the wrath to come and bid
thorn "bring forth fruit meet for repentance. "
To loach men to do justice and to lo\o mercy
In relation to tholr followineii as well as their
relation to G'id. lint his Ilrst duty wan to .savo
thohouls of them that hoar him. llo may
spend his time in olaboiatlng his sloUo , pol-
Ishlng It to brightness , inlaying It with gems ,
but Instead of cutting down the Loid's har
vest has but Unshod the stuUIu In the sun
beams. Ho has constructed his life boat , dec
orated It with Hags , nmiiii'iivored It on the
waters and won the applause of onlookers for
the brave show , but though the wholeoccan Is
swarming with the drowning ho 'bus not
sought to gather them on board.
Uov. Frank Bollard said that after listen
ing to Bishop Fostor.ho-wos willing to cor
rect bis ilrst statement and admit that
America was in advance of England In
Methodism. The modern and intellectual
state of affairs should have , perhaps , moro
'consideration- tbo church. Our children ,
were risinc up to know In a few years more
than wo know ourselves. It was possible
that in ser no themes these to bo laifghcd ut
know moro than tbo teachers. There was
danger there.
Rev. G.V. . Clinton of Pittsburg hold that
the preacher wns nn ambassador of Christ
and that ho should give an adequate Idea of
his heavy responsibility. Singleness of pur-
posn was u preeminent qualification , Ho
should bo able to turn all Knowledge into the
single useful purpose which he must have in
mind.
Uov. Dr. William Arthur bolievcd that for
a preacher there was nothing moro essential
than n aeop conviction in the tauth of his
teachings. Many mon had not the power of
convincing ; hut conviction in Uio poreacher
was the most powerful instrument. "Thoy
believed , and therefore they snoUo. "
Uov. Dr. Leonard of Now York , mission
ary secretary , closed the morning session in
o few remarks condemnatory of the preach
ers who invited donht by delivering sermons
on Darwinism and on Huxley. A roccss was
then taken.
During the rocos the delegates were re
ceived at the White House by President
Harrison.
When the council reassembled , Uov. M.

and Secular Press.
The topic for discussion was "Tho Uc-
ligious Press and the Religious Secular
Press. " Uov. Hugh Prlco Hughs of London
delivering the essay. Dr. HURIICS began
with a history of tbo birth of journalism.
The first dally , Ibo said ] appealed In 1700 ,
There nero now 4,00 dully pipurs. Was It
not stiango that this great ngonoy h.td tiuolv
received the consideration of the churches ?
It was now tno fourth estate , tbo gtoatcst eri-
glno of the world , and boc.imo so without the
aid of the church or Its blessings. Chilstluii
churches must face the fact that this great
engine was In the bands of men who weie in
some cases IndiUorcnt to the ehuieli , and In
othuis absolutely full of hatted for It. What

The great iiiustloiiM | of the. day ; the questions
of science , these of morality and religion ,
should bo dealt with , not In the pulpit , but In
the press.
Uov. E.E , Hossuck of Nashvlllo/i'onn. , said
tbo religious papers hud not kept paoo with
the secular press in development , though the
improvement had been great. The religious
newspapers should bo under the control of
the church. Every argument brought for
ward to show that the church should put
its hand upon the pulpit would apply with
equal force to show that It should put
Us hand upon the press. Religious papers
should have au expert corps of assistants to
the chief editor. Attention should bo invcn
to the advertising columns ; tltoro had been
much sinning , but there was not so much
now , although bu did sec an advcrtlsomcntof
quack mcdlcino consumption cttrcd--oppo-
site an unctuous article on helps to higher
lifo. [ Laughter. ]
Scored the Spciiilnr Press.
Uov. Dr. Uuckloy of Now York , editor of
the Christian Advocate , told of tno trials of
ttio editor of a religious paper ana of the
necessity for accuracy. Ho believed that the
weekly religious paper had greater Inlliicnco
in manufacturing public opinion than the
dally. Utcoloy had attached .superior import
ance to the weekly , I'ho secular prass could
not bo trusted in matters not religious. Ho
was sovuro in Ins Criticisms upon tlio secular
press for Its light treatment of serious topics ,
laughing at suicides and publishing detailed
reports of scandalous divorce cases.
Mr. John II. Lllo of London hold that on
this question the luyincjn should bo heard.
He bad gouo into many a store in New York ,
Boston and Washington and tried in vain to
buy u religious napcr. The English religious
press also ncodud improvement. As fur as
tbo English dnilv press was concerned it
was to bo deplored that all of the principle
papers had the betting news ( hour , hear. ]
Had the reports of cross-examinations in
scandalous trials. Ho hoped that n religious
dally paper would be hi ought forth. The
London sporting papers bad a larger circula
tion than all of the religious papers. The
editors of the religious papers should discuss
social questions and avoid politics.
Mr. Atkinson , an English mcmbor of
parliament , thought that ns all political
parties had their organs the religious press
.should take no account of political things. In
his opinion religious papers had a higher
mission than politics. A man should do tbo
thing ho could do best. Ho was proud of
Dr. Hughes ns a preacher , but ho was not
and never should bo proud of him ns au
editor. When Dr. Hughes was invited to
come down from his high plnco as u preacher
to aid in the decrepit papers bo bad said
bo would two or thrco times a week. When
ho got down there ho had delivered himself
of ascntenco that was almost as near blas
phemy as a religious inaiucouldIIAVU como.
The gavel fell at this point , but Mr. Atkin
son called out , "It was uiaroly u question as
to how Jesus Christ would speak on tholriih
question. "
Uev. Dr. Palmer of England was grateful
to Dr. Hughes and said it might bo that con
demnation by homo speakers was equivalent
to the praise of others. This remark called
forth manifestations of mingled applause and
candcmnntion , and Mr. Atkinson , with soiro
spirit , interrupted to ask , "If that sort of in
sinuation is to bo brought forward on an
other brother. "
I'olillofi and Kolt ioii.
The chairman restored order and Dr. P.il-
mer withdrew his remark , but immediately
nftorward aroused Mr. Atkinson by referring
to a remark mudo by Mr.-Snape , to the effect
that one of the English political parties had
rlddon into power on a beer barrel , and add
ing : "Wo have never learned that , tbolr
party was divorced from the boor barrel. "
Mr. Atkinson replied excitedly that the
mirty was never married to it.
Mr. Palmer rejoined that ho was 00
years of ago and as competent to form a
judgement as others. If tbo gentleman was
in tbo British parliament ho would ho ex
pelled.
At this stage Dr. Morley of Now Zealand
raised the point of order that itiis not
competent to discuss English politics in the
( onforenco.
Dr. Palmer replied that his allusions to
politics had boon called forth bv the preced
ing speakers. Ho hoped tie would Do allowed
to occupy his full Ilvo minutes.
"I hope you won't , " was Mr. Atkinson's
parting shot.
But ) r. Palmer was allowed to sneak for
a few minutes and conllned himself to bis
subject of the propci functions of the press.
The business committee reported back the
memorial touching tbo coso of the World's
Columbian exposition on Sundav and recom
mended the appointment of the following
committee to prepare an appropriate expres
sion of the Judgment ot the conference :
Bishop C. H. Fowler , J. H. Carlisle , Or. L.
