TWO KILLED IN CHURCH. An Indiscreet Virginia Preacher Precip- itates a Free Fight. Cnartorre, N.C., Feb. 6.—During services in 8 Virginia country church about thirty miles from Sparta, N.C., last Sunday, the Rev. Jos, M. Strooke during the course of his remarks said: “There is a man in this congregation who is so mean and unfaithful to his wife that it is a wonder God does not rain down fire brimstone upon his head and consume him. ‘The preacher pointed his finger toward Thos, Coleman, who occupied a seat near the pulpit, and as he did so that individual jumped to hia feet to inquire if the parson meant to be per- sonal in his remarks, No sooner was Celeman on his feet than haif a dozen deacons were up demanding that he sit down. Everything was in an uproar and an attempt was made to eject Coleman. Coleman resisted, and, seizing a stick of wood lying near the stove, he began to wield it hard and fast, knocking four men to the floor aud fatally wounding Jeremiah Fer- guson. One man wrenched the club from Coleman and dealt him a deadly blow across the head. He then walked out of tne church and has not been seen since. The riot lasted six minutes and was participated in by many of the congregation, who used clubs as weapons. The killed were Thomas Coleman and Jeremiah Ferguson. The injured were Ed- ward Clausen, Robert Edwards, John Peeby. FROM SLUGGER’S HEAVEN, San Francisco’s Sporting Elite—What They Are Doing and Will Do. Sax Francisco, Feb. 6.—Jack McAuliffe, ac- companied by his backer and trainer, Billy Madden, arrived from Portland, Ore., on the steamer Santa Rosa yesterday. McAuliffe is somewhat stout at present and his three weeks’ exhibitions ou the way out have taken little if any weight off. Jack on arriving went over to see his old friend Dempsey, who is in training at Neptune gardens for his battle with the Aus- tralian champion middle-weight, Billy McCar- thy. McAubtfe does not underrate Jimmy Car- roll’s ability as a fighter in the least. He thinks his opponent worthy of the closest attention from any light-weight fighter before the public. Biliy McCarthy severely injured a finger of his right hand yesterday morning in training, bat says he will not disappoint the California club the 18th of this month. Pete McCoy and Patsy Kerrigan are training together at Barney Farley’s, and the former is in fine shape for his fist cuff with Charley Glea- son this month at the Golden Gate club, EIGHT KILLED INSTANTLY. Particulars of a Railroad Accideng on the Union Pacific Sunday. Porttaxp, Oxe., Feb. 6.—A railroad acci- dent occurred on the Union Pacific near Cas- cade locks, on Columbia river, Sunday, in which nine men were killed and eighteen wounded. The train consisted of engine. tender and ten cars, and bad aboard about thirty-five laborers who were on the way to close the track. The engine had almost cleared the trestle, which was about 50 feet long. The underpinning supporting the second and third bents were echoed sway by the roaring torrent under. neath, and the Texas, with the caboose and its occupants were hurled into the ravine, forty fect below. Engineer George, when he felt that something was wrong, looked back, and when he saw the caboose swaying he pulled the throttle wide open and just suc- ceeded in reaching the end of the trestle with his back driving wheels hanging clear of the track as the caboose and tender went crash- ing to the bottom of the ravine. Eight of the men were killed instantly and were mutilated almost beyond recognition. a ee From Wail Street Today.

The delegates were photographed—ranged on the steps of Willard hall—after the conven- tion adjourned, A good deal of fun was extracted from the rivalry of competing photog- rapers.

Prince did the same. ‘Then Brady took another picture after the or- der “hats off" had been obeyed. Somebody, interested or otherwise, 81 scross Prince's line of fire ‘and the photo that he longed for never came, Prince jumped out of his wagon and appealed to the generals and colonels and majors and captains to remain still for a few seconds more, but Brady got the crowd started and insisted that Mr. Prince was an inter- loper anyhow and was wholly without a case, either in Jaw or in equity. The line of march to the White House was taken up; Mr. Prince drove home with his one negative; Mr. Brady was jubilant in the possession of two, THE RECEPTION AT THE WHITE HOUSE. The President and the Secretary of War re- ceived the officers most cordially in the library and when the formal reception was over they chatted pleasantly for awhile with sev- eral of the most prominent, The President bad quite a conversation with Gen.

This last was fought over at great length and the constitution adopted last night Berney referred to in defense of both i Much confusion prevailed and the chair had great difficulty in preserving order. The chair Fp Sera that the convention should elect the officers, and the call of states for the eleo- tion of members of the executive committee was The call was frequently interrupted. When Maryland was reached there was a big fight in the state delegation, two candidates be- andi the fieldand hot words s passing between heir respective supporters, 6 jority can- didate was declared. elected caine waves of ion quickly subsided. A round of applause followed the nomination of Representative Cheatham as the member for North Carolina, The executive committee is as follows: P. 3. Crenshaw, Alabama; J. H. Gaunt, Arkansas; Horner Bishop, California; Thos. A, Semkly, Colorado; + Delawa: T. M. Robinson, Florida; T. C. Peck, Georgia; Rev. Wm. Giay, Illinois; J. M. Townsend, Todiana, Alex. Clar!

Henry DeMas of Louisiana, who has been twenty years a state senator there, offered a resolution excluding any aspirant for office under the federal administration from holding office un- der the national association. ‘Lhere are in the convention a church faction, a political fac- tion, @ northern and a southern taction, which have repeatedly shown themselves throughout its several sessions, There is also aconsiderable element that wishes to avoid any indorsement of the administration or of- fense to it, and nearly every question brings out a dozen champions of these several follow- ings, The politicians secured the tabling of the resolution. The resolution by R, 8. Smith of Florida that two delegates from each southern state be ad- | who ded to the committee on southern outrages was adopted. An address to the people from the committee on resolutions was read by Hon. John R. Lynch and adopted, and after another sharp and successful fight for the election of officers by the convention, led by H. C. C. Astwood of New York, the convention took a recess for the 1 o'clock reception tendered them by the Presi- dent, and will convene immediately thereafter for the election of ofticers, which will conclude its business, THE ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE. ‘The address adopted recites at leugth the grievances complained of by colored citizens in the south and says that having full faith in the fairness and justice of the American people, they make an earnest appeal to public opinion for justice und fair play. “We feel,” the ad- dress continues, “that it is our duty to applaud the acts and indorse the utterances of our friends, it matters not where they are or to what party they may belong. We therefore urge upon the colored American voters of the United States, especially im localities the public sentiment of which secures to them the efficacy and potency of their votes, to suppor tin the fature only such candidates for public office as are known to be in favor of justice to the colored Ameri- can citizen. To us this ghould be the para- mount consideration. Questions relating to governmental policy and admivistration as, tor instance, the tariff, civil service reform and the financial policy of the government, we should make secondary and subordinate, Without regard to the attitude of parties upon such questions, and without regard to our own views upon them, we feel that it 18 our duty to support only that party and only such candi- dates for office as are known to be friendly to our course, until all political parties will accord to us the rights and privileges to which we are a under the Constitution and laws of the PETITIONS TO CONGRESS, We earnestly petition the present Congress to so amend the federal judiciary lawas will make it possible for the federal courts to organize juries that will be favorable to the enforce- ment of the laws. We also petition the — Congress to en- act into a law some such bill as the “Blair edu- cational bill,” believing, as we do, that it is the duty of the national government to assist the several states in the education of the people and that the money thus appropriated be ap- portioned on the basis of illiteracy. We also petition the present Congress to so amend the national interstate commerce law as will nullify the effects of such state legislation as provides separate cars for white and colored ngera, believing, as we do, that such atate lation, so far as the same may be applicable to interstate roads, is clearly unconstitutional, to say nothing of its injustice, We also petition the present Congress to pass such a law as will put federal elections under federal control. We also petition the present Congress to a a law reimbursing the depositors of the late Freedmen’s betty 2 and trust company for the losses sustained by them through the failure of that institution. OPPOSED. TO EMIGRATION, ‘The propositions now pending in Congress looking to the deportation or emigration of colored American citizens of this country toany other country or even to any other of our own country, through governmental aid, meets with our most emphatic condemnation and dis- supeonsl: for we cannot receive governmen- aid to exile ourselves from this country as o neutralizing element against our own growing numbers or as an excuse for the nation not ge, its duty toward us as American citizens. hile we recognize the right of colored American citizens to go to any country they may desire, or to any part of our own country, yet we do not believe that xt is any part of the duty of the general government to render any aid or assistance from the fede- ral treasury for that and we do not ask it, ‘lle aak is [aslo equal rights and fair play. If under said circumstances we can- notsurvive we will have none to blame but INVESTIGATION THE FIRE. A Coroner’s Jury Inquiring Into Mon- day’s Terrible Tragedy.

PEOPLE IN TRE HOUSE. His man just then reached the door and told him that there were some poopie in the house. He thenranaround to the rear of the honse just as the woman was being taken from the roof. He entered by the basement and ran up by the rear stairs to the second story. He ran to the front of the house, but his man, bad = followed him and had goue into the bath room, calied out that there was » man in the rear room. He rushed back and found the Secretary lying on the floor, whom he and “his man” carried to the window, ‘la his head on the sill, He called to the foreman below to run up @ lad- der, that he had «& man aw was exhausted. Then, seeing that the fire was coming toward him be ran outand called out to No. 1 to cut the fire off, Coming back through the hall he cume across the body of Miss Tracy, which be carried out. “Were the men of your department prompt and faithful in their work?” asked the coroner. “Yes, sir; I have no fault to find with any of them, They all worked like beavers. If Mrs. Tracy had stayed in the house another minute she would have been saved. If the front door ad been kept closed and the draught shut off, th ple would have been saved.” fhen it is your idea that the door was opened originally?” “Yes, sir. { think that the door was opened by the servant when he ran down stairs. He said that he closed them, but I think that he lost his head and forgot to close them. There is no doubt that the fire originated in the library.” “What, in your opinion, was the, origin of the fire?” “The fire marshal and myself have come to the conclusion that the fire came from the lamp that we found in the library.” FIREMAN WRIGHT'S STORY, Howard W. Wright, fireman of No. 6com- pany, was next called, he being the man who drove with the chief to the fire, While the chief was in the house some one told him (Wright) that there were people uy stuirs, and he immediately told the chief, who went around the rear. He followed him — and when they landed ‘on the second floor he went through the bath room into the next room, where he met an of- ficer, who said: “For God's sake help ine to get this man out—I am almost gone!” He ran over and tried to pick man up but found that he was too heavy, and #0 he cried to the chief to come. He came and dragged the man to the window, telling Wright to look after the woman, But he could not find her, aud came} back to look after the chief, By that time the flames had cut off their re- treat, and the witness stayed in the room until he got the man out of the room by the ladder. The Secretary had his trousers partly ou when found and was unconscious, POLICEMAN CATTELL. Officer H. P. Cattell was next called. Mon- day a.m, at 6:55 he turned in his report at the box on 17th street and Pennsyfvania avenue and then walked up 17th street and heard a noise, then a cry of fire, and then he began to run, soon seeing @ blaze in Secretary Tracy's house. Going up the front steps he tried to get in, the doors being closed fast. The engine then came in sight and he ran down into the basement and entered the house by the door there which was unlocked. Going back he went = the back stairway, which was very crooke There was no smoke on the lower floor, but the upper floor was so thick that it was almost impossible to breathe. He finally, after going abdut in the emoke in search of a way through to thw front, reached the geen | bath room and going into :t he reached the window and was getting it open when he heard screams and entered the next room. Mra. Tracy had gone, but the witness’ foot struck the body of a man on the floor, He shook him, but it did no the man being unconscious. He could not move him and then he ran back into the bath room and called for help, Just then » man came in and tried to help him but it was no use. The man then ran back again and almost immediately the chief came in and betweeu the three they managed to get the Secretary to the bath room window. In reply to a question by a juror the officer said that he was about four or five minutes in the house before he was joined by other peo- le. Thesecretary had on an undershirt and jis trousers were partly drawn up. The smoke was so thick that the witness was nearly blinded and he could not see who it was that had come to his aid. The loss of life, he said, had all oc- curred, with the exception of the death of Mrs, Tracy, before the arrival of the tire depart- ment. The first smoke from the fire wus thick and black. which the officer thought came from the peculiar wood. He had no theory as to the origin Cf the fire. POLICEMAN ELLIOTT. Officer Elliott was called. He did not get to the scene of the fire until twenty-two minutes after 7, and the water was then just coming out ot the nozzle of the hose of No. 5engine. No. 5 he explained is stationed in George- town, and should not take more than five minutes to get to the fire. The wit- ness was one of the men who ran upstairs and brought down the body of the French maid. Had she remained in her room, he said, she would have been all right. The witness explained that he could only make a guess as to the time when he reached the fire. He had agen the chief bring down Miss Tracy's boay. JUDGE KNOTI'S OBSERVATIONS. Judge Knott, who had entered the room, was introduced to the jury and asked if he had any suggestions to make. He said that his experi- ence wos that little reliance could be placed on witness’ memory as to time, and he was called to the stand as e witness, He lives, he said, on the northeast corner of Farragut square, on 17th street, and he stated how he ran to the fire very soon after 7 o'clock, At that time the flames were not bursting from the upper stories, As he owns the house on corner’ next to the ‘Tracy house he felt so little anxious, but the firemen assured him that they would save it. He detailed his movements and then esti- mated the time as follows: At five minutes be- COLUMBIA CENTRAL RAILROAD, The Proposed Route in This City of the Drum Point Road Extension.
