The collapse of a five story brick building in Cincinnati Monday, caused by the explosion of a gaso- line tank in the basement, caused the death of a number of people and the serious injury of a score of oth- ers. A new gas engine had been put in the basement to furnish incan- descent light for the building. Something went wrong with the engine and in making necessary re- pairs a tank of gasoline was explod- ed, but just how the accident occur- red no one will ever know as the person fixing the engine was killed. The lower floors of the building were occupied by saloons and the upper floors as flats.

An investigation going forward in New York shows that of the Italian immigrants who have arrived in this country since the beginning of the year, 7095 admitted that they could not read or write their own language.

The republicans of Jasper county stand for free silver of the American product. At their convention held at Carterville Friday,to select delegates to the St. Joseph and Springfiled conventions, a free silver resolution was almost unanimously passed. Jasper county is in Congressman Burton's district and the free silver resolution of the American product shows his fine Italian hand.

Toset himself right before the country Senator “Blackburn makes the following Statement: “My attention is being daily called to statements made in the newspapers }all over the country of compromises, | either agreed to or pending, between | the gold standard advocates and | those who think with me in Ken- jtucky.

Senator Tillman, in one of his characteristic tire eating speeches in the senate Friday, had this to say in regard to bolting the democratic national ticket in case a free silver plank failed of adoption: ‘Where Til go I don’t know. I can’t go to pepulism. Populism is only an ex plosion of wrath. The populists tried too much and spattered them selves on the wall.” When the senate had regained its breath, Mr. Hiil, who had been taking notes, took the floor. At the outset Mr. Hill characterized Mr. Tillman's speech as a “remarkable performance,” and expressed doubt as to whether he did not err in mak ing response at all to anything that had been said. He, however, as- sured the senate that he should con fine himself to some of the gratuit ous and uncalled for and undignified friend that loved him.’ The senator has denied here jto-day thathe is a Fopuliet. Mr. | Hill then proceeded. “Tet me say ‘to him that what he has said leads on the straight road to populism, or | (after a pause) some worse place ” Mr. Hill congratulated Mr. Till- man, however, on the assurance that he would not join the populist party. Asto what the democratic party would doat Chicago Mr. Hill | declined to make a prediction, in view of the rapidity with which | events were at present making. “But | I say to the senator from South Car jolina that if he loves Jefferson and Jackson and still represents the peo- ple he will have no reason to leave ;the party.” Hill announced that in | Sunshine or in shadow, in weal or woe, he would be for the democratic} party, and would support the nom inee, no matter what the platform might be.
