Workmen Clearing the Track Found Another Body—List of the Killed. Crxcixnatt, Jan. 18.—The list of killed in the collision near College Hill station yester- day is as follows: John Wilson, insurance agent, 227 Main street, this city, lived at Win- ton place; Charles Keller, hardware merchant, Winton place; F. W. Witherbee, conductor, of Toledo, Ohio. Wm. Planitz, a plumber, of Carthage and Baggage Master James Staley of Toledo, died after being taken to the hospital. ‘The injured are: Wm. Coakley, engineer, and Wm. Barker, fireman of the Strong engine. The arm of another body was found this morning. The wreck has been entirely cleared. Superintendent Neilson, in explaining the cause. says the fact that the Glendale accommo- dation was twelve minutes behind time had no bearing. The real cause was that the operator at Carthage, where train No. 81 entered the block in which the accident occurred, did not show the signal that would tell the engincer that the block was not clear. 2 aa TOOK THE OLD MAN’S HORSES; An Unwilling Bride Elopes Before the Expectant Bridegroom’s Eyes, Brmarxonam, Axa., Jan. 18.—Flora Mays was to have been married at her father’s residence near Randolph, Ala, at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon to a Mr. Werriweather, a rich farmer. Merriweather forty-five and a widower, Miss Mays is nineteen, The match was arranged by the girl’s parents much against her will. She was in love with a young man named George Church, Merriweather had arrived at the Mays nee and the guests were all assembled in the parlor await- THE ZOOLOGICAL PARK. Points From the Report of the Com- mission. 'ORAKER AND WOOD. The Ex-Governor of Ohio Continues His Story Before the House Committee. ‘The Zoological park commission today trans-| ue Gave woop $200 To COME TO WASHINGTON, mitted a report to the House of Representa- tives on the proceedings of the commission. The main points of the rcport have already | been printed in Tux Stan. The report speaks of the first meeting of the commission on March 9, 1889, and of the re peated tours of the members o.er the ground to which they were confined, i. e., along Rock creek between Massachusetts avenue and tle point where said creek is crossed by the mili- tary road. Reference is then made to the preliminary map prepared by the que ia survey showing the own- ershij ol property. The commission found considerable difficulty in making the second map which was printed in Tue Star, as it was necessary to show all the parcels of land, &c., and at the same time keep the total amount within the appropriation. On April 15 a circular letter was sent to the various owners of land asking what price they held their property on the parts needed for the purpose of a zoological park. The answers were very unsatisfactory, being in nearly every case largely in_ excess of the real value of the property. Finding it ii ‘ible to obtain information by this means the assistance of various gentlemen versed in the value of land in this locality was called in and data for reli- able information was obtained The report then speaks of the location of the park, as already stated at various times, and of the satisfaction to the commission in being able to secure 167 acres of suitable land, commenc- ing at a point leas than two miles from the ex- ecutive mansion. On November 21 the final survey was far- nished and the report continues that the com- mission feels itself justified in the statement that the site is commodious, accessible and adapted by nature to the special ends it is in- tended bo serve in a degree beyond any be- longing to any other city. The commission is now proceeding to settle as rapidly as possible with the owners whose lands are to be acquired by mutual agree- ment. As already printed in Tar Star, 131,145 acres are acquired in this manner at a cost of $150,- 856.76, and 166.486 acres are to be condemned at a cost of #176,128.76. The report continues that judging from the progress the entire cost of the total site will fall within the $200,000 appropriated, even after the purchase of about forty-five acres beyond the originally contemplated area, as to leave a balance which may be applied to necessary preliminary expenses. ; ‘The report says that before the expiration of the present fiscal year the commission will have completed the duties with which it was charged, and_ the title to the lands will be vested in the United States, ‘The commission suggests that Congress enact new legislation, as at present they have no power to put up fences, lay out roads or grounds or erect buildings, nor is it even cer- tam that it has the right to accept donation, ‘The commission also suggests that i the coustruction of the ponds, lakes. &c seientifie direction will be necessary and that any plans of Congress could be beat carried out now when the foundation of the park is being laid, The Commissioners also think that the collection of animals at the Smithsonian institution should be transferred to the zoological park as soon as possible after the government takes full possession. —— DISTRICT GOVERNMENT, AN INVITATION TO COMMISSIONER DOUGLASR. Col. Alexander Hogeland and Prof. Francis ., jr., of the board of the boys and girl ul home and employment association on Commissioner Douglass, extending him an invitation to be present at and address the mass meeting to be held tomorrow night at the E-strect Baptist church.

Miss Mays saw him coming and in her bridal dress ran to the gate to meet him. The young lovers leaped mto Merriweather’s car- Tiage, which was standing at the gate, drove to Centerville and were married. ‘They were hotly pursued, but Merriweather's horses were the fastest in that section, and the young lovers were man and wife half an hour before the pursuing party arrived at Conterville. pete “SHOOT THEM DOWN.” How the New Republic of Brazil Deals With Revolters. New Yorr, Jan. 18—One of Charles R. Flint’s correspondents at Rio Janeiro, describ- ing the revolt among the troops on December 15, says that when the trouble broke out the news was telephoned to the minister of war with a request for instructions, The laconic order came back over the wire: “Shoot them down.” And it was done. Yesterday's news by cable from Brazil was favorable. Foreign exchange further advanced 4% to 2%.

BUT AFTERWARD SENT A MAN HERE TO WATCH HIM—WOOD's CONDUCT AFTER THE ELECTIOK— Uls “CERTIFICATE OF CHARACTER.” Ex-Gov. Foraker resumed his statement be- fore the House committee onthe Ohio ballot- | box forgery today and said he did not see Wood | after receiving the Walters letter until Octo- ' ber 6, when he appeared at Columbus and asked for money to go to Washington to look up the “battery deal.” ‘Witness gave him #200 through Prior for the purpose. Wood said the publication had got the “gang” down on him, speaking of Mur- ray in a disereditable way, and saying that they | had been trying to get him to say that the paper wasa forgery, He also said that he was in fear of personal violence, Witness tried to re- assure him, and had the money paid over to Wood October 8. On that date he got a note from Wood, saying that he could get the boxes at $10 apiece and NOT TO SHOW THE NOTE TO MR. HALSTEAD, The witness read a letter from the Cincin- nati screw and tap company estimating the cost of the ballot boxes at $4 each. It closed with the statement: ‘his same Wood would hardly bear too close inspection and he is now posing as a smoke inspector of this city.” It on “Your ola neighbor, F. Leo- Then the witness read another letter from T. C. Campbell to Wood commenting upon wit- ness’ music hall speech as unfair, abusing Mr. Halstead, saying that nothing better could be expected from him, and suggesting a law auit bprreee him in connection with the ballot box matter, A NOTE FROM HALSTEAD, Resuming his narrative witness read a note from Mr. Halstead, received the morning after the retraction (October 11), saying that he had found the paper to be a forgery and proposed to publish o retraction. Witness answered expressing a fear that he (Halstead) had been imposed upon. He (witness) was considering what should be done about the matter. His first impulse was to abandon it and publish everything then and there. He told Kurtz he wanted everything published. Kurtz said he was of the same impression at the beginning and had written to Mr. Halstead to that effect. Here the witness read the letter from Mr. Kurtz to Mr. Halstead in which he suggests that he give at once to the world the name of the forger or forgers, to the end that vigo1ow prosecution be begun of all engaged in t.e allot box affair; that such was the course best calculated to save his good name. In answer Mr. Halstead wrote that he had agreed with Harman that nothing further should be published at that time. Harman wanted to protect the young men who had had ! something to do with the forgery. THE GOVERNOR EMBARRASSED, Witness said he did not know exactly what todo, He was sumewhat confused; anybody would have been, He had not caused the pa- per to be pnblished, and Mr. Halstead had taken the responsibility; and witness thought he had better leave the matter where it was until the time should come when everybody could speak infreedom. Wood was in Wash- ington looking after the “battery deal” and the pension record of Mr. Campbell in Congress, KEEPING TRACK OF Woop. Witness thought Wood might be making statements or falling into the hands of some- body who might use him, #o be thought it would be well to have somebody keep track of him. Therefore he telegraphed Mr. H. C. Me- grew of Washington to come to Columbus, Megrew came, and after witness had ex- plained the details to him returned to Wash- ington on October 14, with instructions to watch Wood Megrew kept track of Wood until he left Washington for Ohio to vote the day before elec- tion. While in Washington Wood wrote witness and Kurtz several letters, but the very mo- ment witness learned he was a forger he stopped having any communication with him, and Kurtz wrote Wood that they wonld have nothing to do with him and would not answer his letters. On October 16 witness became ill and had toretire from the campaign for ten days or two weeks, He went tohis home and had no corre- spondence with anybody. On the day after election he saw Megrew and asked after Wood. Megrew replied that he (Wood) seemed greatly distressed about intimations in the newspapers that he (Foraker) was at fault in what nad been done in the matter and wanted to write, but had been forbidden to do so. He wanted to set witness right in the world. Witness told Megrew that A CERTIFICATE OF CHARACTER AT WOOD'S HAXDS would not amout to much, but he might write if he wanted to do so, Witness got the letter Monday, November 11, and threw it on a table. His wife found it und put it away in a bureau, where — it lay until witness saw the published story that Mr. Butterworth had said that he (witness) had | sadn it for 2 money consideration from ood, when he looked for and found it. It was dated Washington, November 7, and in it Wood said he was sorry witness was defeated, and saw that some papers said it was the ballot-box matter and him (Wood). He (Wood) did not believe it, for witness had nothing to do with it, and it he wanted he (Wood) would give a state- ment that would clear him of having any im- proper connection with him (Wood) or the so-called forgery matter or the ballot-box busi- ness, WOOD SAID HE DIDN'T Do It, Wood added that he did not do the so-called forgery and did not want him to think he did. Witness afterward met Wood as he (witness) was coming out of the Commercial office. Wood wanted to talk to him there, but witness told him to come to the Gibson house, which he did. Almost the first thing Wood did was to inquire about his smoke inspectorship. Witness told him he could do nothing more about it; that he had forfeited all the confidence he hadin him, Wood wanted to know what he meant and witness told him of the affidavits of Harmon and Halstead. Wood rather spunked up and wanted to know whether witness charged him with forgery. Witness replied that he did not make that charge, but that he (Wood) was re- sponsible for it. Wood wanted to make a state- ment for him, but he told him (Wood) that he wanted no statement or anything more to do with him. ORDERED HIM OUT OF THE ROOM. Wood seemed disgruntled, but got up and left and witness bad never seen him from that day until a moment ago, when he came into the committee room. There never was one cent of money paid to bim on that or any other account, except for the expenses incurred by him at Washington im getting information, Witness had instructed Megrew to pay Wood's expenses-and his fare to Cin- cinnati, Wood wanted to get from Wash- ington to New York, but wituess wanted him at Cincinnati where he could look after him, Since the election witness had been trying to Chesapeake aud Potomac, S44, bid, 85% asked, American Graphopbone Company, 194 bid, 193; asked.

Woop's WRITTEN STATEMENT, Before crovs-examination he wanted to say that it had come to his knowledge that Wood had made what he called a confession in writ- ing and sworn to, Inasmuch as he had never seen that confession and came here at the click of the telegraph, aud perhaps at as much or more inconvenience than any other witness, he thought it was due to him that he should have access to that con- fession, as he had some testimony he wished to put in on that point. Representative Grosvenor said that night be- fore last, for the first time, ho had been fur- nished with an outline statement of what Wood would say here. It had been read to him sibly to aid in Mr, Foraker’s cross-examination, It was not in the form of aconfession, Per- haps Mr. Foraker might not want to take a statement that might not go in. ‘The witness replied that he was here to meet anything any human being might say and was ready to meet what was being circulated ubout as an alleged confession, He did not want any statement, A KNOWN FORGER AND SCOUNDREL. The chairman thought that the best thing to do would be to place Wood immediately on the stand, and it was decided that he should do so after the cross-examination, which was imme- diately begun by Representative Grosvenor, THE EX-GOVERNOR ChOSS-EXAMINED. On cross-examination the witness said that he had been on friendly relations with Senator Sherman last summer, and, in fact, had never been on other terms with him that he kuew of.

THE CHURCH CROWDED WITH DISTINGUISHED PEOPLE, ASSEMBLED TO HONOR THE MEMORY OF THE LAMENTED SON OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE—THE SAD SCENE AT THE GRAVE, The clear wintry sunshine filtered this morn- ing through the multi-tinted windows of the Church of the Covenant and cast a subdued flood of color, “the dim religious light,” upon one of the most distinguished and sorrow- ful assemblages that this city has seen im many years. From the great organ,on whose golden pipes the reflected hues came and went, there issued the wail of melody and harmonious grief-speaking sobs that seemed to wrench themselves out of @ broken heart. “The spirit of mourning per- vaded the sweet-scented atmosphere and even the bright flowers and fresh green of the smilax and im were indicative ouly of the end to which all mortality must sooner or later come. It was the funeral of Walker Blaine. Long before 11 o'clock nearly all the unreserved seats in the spacious edifice were fully occupied by public men of all lands, official dignitaries “and social celebrities of both sexes. Strings of smilax marked the lines beyond which the general mblic could not go, and for fully half an hour fore the sad procession arrived there was nothing but standing room. During the greater portion of this period Mr. Walter Damrosch was at the organ, and his deft fingers awoke such musical lamentation asis but rarely heard. THE PRELIMINARY SERVICE AT THE BLAINE MANSION, Those who had been specially invited to at- tend the brief preliminary service in the Blaine mansion were at Madison place before 10 o'clock. They were quite numerous and in- cluded President Harrison and Mrs. Harrison, Vice President Morton, all the members of the cabinet, Gov. Robie of Maine, ex-Governor Perham, Pastmaster Manley of Augusta and a number of intimate friends A brief prayer by Rev. Teunis S. Hamlin, D.D., a last glance at the familiar features of the dead, a few tears, and the lid of the casket bigs closed to be opened no more by the hand of man. Outside the house there was a large crowd of the sympathetically curious, for whom funerals have morbid attractions. They were about equally divided as to sex, but there was a one- ness of desire to see everything that was going on. There was no disorder; nove was possible, for a couple of stalwart policemen were quietly watebful. So numerons were the carriages that it was deemed necessary to tem ily change the route of the herdies and they were sent around to 15th strect until the cortege had departed for the church. It was within a few minutes of 11 o'clock when Kev. Dr. Hamlin, bare- headed, pecoenes the flower-laden, cloth-cov- ered casket, which half a dozen honorary pall bearers bore slowly to the waiting hearse. Then the carriages came up. Secretary Blaine, Mrs. Blaine. James G. Blaine, jr., and Miss Margaret Biaine entered the first one and other members of the family followed in the vehicles which were driven off in solemnly moving pro- cession, The President aud Mrs, Harrison were in oue of the presidential equipages, fourth in the line, A DISTINGUISHED GATHERING IN THE CHURCH. Before the cortege arrived at the church there was nothing but standing room save for those in whose behalf provision had been made. Completely filling the north side of the audience room were Senators, Rep- resentutives and other public men, No- ticeable among them were Senators Evarts, Eustis, Stanford, Hoar, Platt, Spooner, Dixon, Cockrell, Mitchell, Farwell, Sawyer and Cullom, Speaker Reed, Representa~ tives Dalzell, Morrow, Butterworth, Martin, Post, Hermann, Farquhar, Holman, McKinley, Sherman, Dingley and Bland. Luter Senators Hale and Chandler appeared —on the other side of the church, A number of Congressmen were misled by the information, given in a morning paper, that the services at the house would take place at 11:30. Among others Senator Hawley and Representatives Loutelle, B. W, Perkins and Neidrivghaus repaired to the church at about 11:30 and found the ceremonies almost ov: ‘The crowd was so great that they were unable to obtain admittanes Among other national and local notables resent were Civil Service Commissioucr Koosevelt, Gen. Schofield, Hon. John A. King, ex-Justice Strong. Mr. M. W. Galt, Mr. Wick- liffe Yulee and Dr, ¥. J. Woodman, who was a classmate of Walker Blaine’s at Yale. In the center of the church were seated the diplomatic corps, the delegates to the inter- national American conference and members of the Venezuclan claims commission. In the ab- sence of Mr, William E. Curtis, who is execu- tive officer of the international conference, but who was superintending the funeral arrange- ments, the delegates were in charge of Cupt. Johan G, Bourke. THE SERVICES IN THE CHURCH The music was filling the church with its minor plaintiveness when the Rey. Dr. Hamlin walked slowly up the central aisle, repeating in asmooth, clear voice the oft-heard words com- mencing with the sentence, “I am the resur- rection and the life.” Behind him was the casket, and as he made his uppearunce at the door the congregation arose and remained standing until the mourners were all seated. The mem- bers of the Blaine hvusehold occupied seats directly in front of the pulpit and to the right of the muin aisle, while the seats on the other side were given to the President and Mrs. Har- rison, Vice President Morton, the members of the cabinet and their wives and the pall bearers, who were Messrs. Wm. F. Wharton, John Davis, Sevellon A. Brown, Marcellus Lai- ley, M. L. Ruth, A. F. Jenks, F. B. Loring and Wm. Haywood. ‘Yhere was more of hope and less of grief in the strains of the organ as the mourners were being seated. Wild, thrilling discords gave place to soft harmonics and the dismal fantasies of sorrow were succeeded by the soothing assurances of “Abide with Me.” The king of instruments was in the hands of a master, Secretary Blaine was very much affected. He shivered slightly and tried to pull his over- coat over his shoulders without rising from his seat, Emmons Blaine, who was right bebind him, helped him put it on and then. the be- reaved father sat down, the very incarnation of woe. Almost throughout the entire service his silvery-crowned bead was bowed. Once or twice he looked up at Dr. Hamlin, who, from behind asereen of palms, plants and flowers, was reading Scriptural consolation, and the haggard face would be calm. Then his eves would lower until they saw the biack casket beneath the festooned roses and heaped-u lilies and violets, and he would sob as thoug! his heart was broken, Many wept out of sym- pathy for the grent man’s grief, The services at the church concluded with the Lord’s prayer and the benediction. In the popular petition the great majority of those present joined audinly. The ushers at the church wero: J. Fenner Lee, William E. Curtis, N. L. Anderson, A. C, Tyler, T. B. M. Mason, Truxton Beale, Fred- erick Poor, Clifford Richardson, Woodbu: Blair, Remsen Whitehouse, Charles Poor, H. Wright, T. 8. Rodgers, George 8, Anderson, Richard Smith and A. F. Magruder, THE FLORAL OFFERINGS, After the funeral party left the church there was & rush of women to more closely inspect the floral offerings. Some of the finest speci- mens of the florists’ art had been taken to the cemetery, but much that was very beau- tiful had been left on and around the altar, Most of the offeri were wreaths. Roses, white and red and of the rare varieties, lilies of the valley and the stately calla and violets were most prominent, Among those who con- tributed were the President and Mrs, Har- rison, Vice President and Mra Morton, Mr. and = Mra. F. M. Stanwood, the Swiss minister, Mr. Mahion Sands, Mr. Robertsor i commission, the employes of the State a ment, Mr. Truston Beale, Mra RR. bith, Mra.

Blaine. It was evidently with the groatost difficulty that Mr. Blaine was abie to control his emotion, while all his children who stood close around showed signs of the deepest grief. When the casket was lowered into the ground and all that was mortal of a bright and promising young man was laid to its rest many in the concourse gave wa! fears. Dr. Hammond read the rm ‘ive burial service, and when he came to the words “dust to dnst,” Secretary and Mrs, Blaine turned away. unable to witness the conclusion of the sadscene. The other members of the tam- ily remained, however, and when the first shovel full of earth was thrown into the grave they all gave way to the deepest emotion and the sight ‘was an exceedingly sad one for all the friends of the family. When the grave had been filled in the funeral party re-entered their carriages nd returned to the city and the sad ceremonies were over, “ PRISONERS ARRAIGNED.

There were stacks of bread in the Police Court this morning, but none of it was for the poor hungry mortals who were in the clutches of the law and spending their time in the cells below. The bread did not come upto the standard weight required by law, but that would have made no difference to the hungry prisoners, It did make a cousiderable difference to the bukers in whose establishments the loaves were baked, as they were before the court charged with violating the law. The first case called was that of Charles Schafer. He was represented by Mr. Campbell Carrington, Policeman Hatton was the com- plaining witness, but the court was not satisfied from hisevidence that the bread was properly weighed. Frank Aldrich, sealer of weights and measures, testified to weighing bread and finding it short, but he was unable to say that it was Mr, Schafer’s bread. missed. THE QUESTION OF SHRINKAGE. The next case called was that of Mr. Charles Schneider, Eight loaves were offered in evi- dence as having been found on Mr. Schneider's tand in the market. They were claimed to be short weight. Mr. Schneider claimed that short weight was the result of shrinkage from being in the open air. He said he baked nearly 7,000 loaves of bread Thursday night and they were all fall weight before being baked. At was shown that ali the bread taken from Mr. Schneiders wagon in the morning were full weight, The bread in questiod was not weighed patil noon, after it had been baked twelve Judge Miller referred to the law and asked the prosecuting attorney what he claimed and what allowance he wanted the court to make hal? of the ution. He that the bread shuld have weighed 16 ounces at the time it was offered for sale. Ju Miller suid he thought it was a very Plagne for Mr. Schneider that in 7,000 loaves of bread only two uf them should come within the law. 4 FINE OF FOUR DOLLARS. ‘The court imposed a fine of $4 in the cases of two short loaves and Mr. Garnett noted an ap- peal.
