8 PAGES, 48 COLUMNS,
INDIANAPOLIS, June 30. —Train No.
11, on the Vandalia railroad, contain
ing a large number of Christian En
deavorers, collided with train No. 6
near Vandalia. J. J. Turner, general
manager of the Vandalia, telegraphed
the following statement to this city:
Killed: R. T. Siiermati, mail clerk
on No. 11, Indianapolis; W. P. Coon,
baggagemaster, 326 East Louisiana
I street, Indianapolis, on No. 11.
Fatally injured: Samuel Parkinson,
mail clerk, of Columbus, 0., crushed in
the wreck; Frank. Owens, fireman, of
Terre Haute, mangled under the en
gine.
Train No. 11 left Indianapolis in two
sections on account of the heavy San
Francisco travel occasioned by the na
tional meeting of the Christian En
deavor society. Orders were given to
meet No. 6, the eastbouud passenger
train, at Vandalia.
It seems, from the best information
obtainable, that the westbound train
pulled out of Vandalia without waiting
for the trafu from St. Louis. The nead-
I light of the westbound engine was ex
tingnis'ied for some time before the
crash came.
1 Horace Kerns of this city was con
ductor of train No. JI and Tim Mana
fee of Terre Haute was the engineer.
None of t the passengers on either train
was injured.
DEAD MAN IS IDENTIFIED.
Mutilated Remains Fouud In New York
William Galdenzuppe.
New Yobk, June 30.—Positive identi
fication by nine men makes it seem cer
tain that the man who was murdered
some time last week and who was cut
into two parts, one of the parts being
taken to the Ogden woods, near the
Washington bridge, and the other
thrown into the East river, from which
it was taken at Eleventh street, was
William Guldensuppe, a rubber in the
Murry Hill baths.
The rubbers in the baths, as well as
Dr. J. S. Cosby, a frequenter of the
baths, have identified the remains of
the man at the morgue. Dr. Cosby’s
identification was by means of a cica
trix on the finger, caused by a felon
which he had lanced for Guldensuppe.
Eight of the baths’ attendants were at
the morgue and all of them are positive
that the mutilated remains there are
those of Guldensuppe.
Mrs. Nack, the midwife, with whom
Guldensuppe had lived, was at police
headquarters. Captain O’Brien of the
detective bureau had an hour’s secret
conference with the woman. Dr. Cosby
and the bath attendants, after which
he said in the course of a short time he
would make a statement regarding the
case.
Herman Nack, husband of the wo
man with whom Guldensuppe had been
consorting, has been placed under ar
rest. Mrs. Nack has been identified as
one of the women who purchased a fig
ured oilcloth in which parts of Gulden
suppe’s body were wrapped when they
were found. •

OUTLOOK IS DARK
McCollough Charged With Be
ing Intimate With
Dead Wife’s Sister—He Killed His
Wife In Order to Get to Marry
His Paramour.
Jonesboro, Ga., June 30.—The
trial of McCullough, the Clayton
county man who murdered his wife,
will develop sensational features, and
a very strong motive for V l ® crime
will be shown.
It will be proven that McCullough
was intimate with Miss Judson Jones,
his wife’s sister and another sister,
Miss Della Jones, will be placed on
the stand to prove the charges. He
murdered bis wife to marry to this
woman.
A big petition is being got upto get
Judge Candler to hold a special ses
sion of court at once to try McCul
lough. It promises to be one of the
most sensational trials in the history
of the state.
L.
CONFERENCE ON CUBA.
McKinley. Day aud Woodford Hold a Me< t
*ing to Settle the Vroblem.
New York. June 30.—A special to
The World from Washington says:
President McKinley, Assistant Secre
tary of State Day and the new minister
to Spain, General Woodford, held a
conference during the day on the Cu
ban question.
. Unless something occurs to render ac
tion necessary, no step will be taken by
the administration towards settling the
problem until after General Woodford
has been received at Madrid and is so
situated as to do his share towards car
rying out the policy decided upon.
It is evidently the object of the presi
dent by some diplomatic move to secure
the Cubans an advantage without
affording Spain ground for open expres
sion of offense. It seems likely that
Mr. McKimey, in pursuance of this ob
ject, will demand that Spain shall cease
killing prisoners of war and shall ac
cord to the insurgents their rights as
human beings engaged in, honorable
warfare.
This, it is held, would materially aid
the insurgent cause by rescuing it from
the plane of a mere mob rebellion
agaiust lawful authority, aud it is ar
gued that Spam could not refuse such a
request without prejudicing herself iu
the eyes of all civilized nations and in
viting an act of greater interference on
the part of the United States.

RISOLUTIONS ON CUBA AND TRUSTS

Were Adopted—Platform Contained Only
One Flank and That Was
• For Silver.
•
Columbus, 0., June 3u.—The Demo
cratic state convention here was the
most largely attended of any such occa
sion since the civil war. The large at
tendance was partly due to the fact
that a complete new ticket was to be
nominated, and there was an unusually
large number of candidates for each
place. These candidates have had their
respective troops of workers here, in ad
dition to the delegates, and they aggre
gate 7,000 enthusiastic hustlers.
sTho new Columbus Auditorium, with
a'seating capacity of 6,000, was not
equal to the demands for admission.
The new Auditorium was beautifully
decorated with bunting and plants.
There was a profusion of portraits of
Democratic leaders about the walls, but
that of President Cleveland was uat in
the collection
The Ohio state convention last year
was not as strongly for free silver as
this one, and at the convention one year
ago there was some disturbance over a
motion to turn the picture of Cleveland
“toward the wall.”
The face of Senator Price, as well as
other gold Democrats, were missed
from the galaxy of heroes. The por
trait of W. J. Bryan was the center of
attraction, aud that of the late Alien
G. Thurman was quite as conspicuous.
Last year, when John R. McLean
was elected to head the Ohio delegation
to Chicago, W. W. Durbin was made
chairman of the state central commit
tee aud he was re- elected this year by
the McLean influence, while Daniel
McConville was also re-elected chair
man of the state executive committee.
Convention Called to Order.
When the convention was called to
order at 10 a. m. by Chairman Durbin
he congratulated the party on the signs
of the times and the enthusiastic con
dition of the party. He made a speech
for free silver.
Prayer was offered by Rev. E. L.
Rexford, pastor of the Universalist
church in this city, and then Hon. Ul
ric Sloane was introduced as the tempo
rary chairman of the convention.
Just before the convention was called
to order a large gold cross was .carried
into the hall. It had as ornaments the
crown of thorns and a clock indicating
16 minutes to 1 o’ciock. It was quite
large aud as it formed the centerpiece
among the floral designs about the
stage. Chairman Sloaue in gesture
pointed to it with great effect as he pro
ceeded with his vigorous speech. There
was also a living white rooster perched
on the stage to add to the enthusiasm.
The speech of Chairman Sloane was
frequently interrupted with the wildest
demonstrations of applause, and es
pecially in his references to silver. The
keynote of everything was silver. The
Glee club that entertained the large au
dience in the early hours sang only sil
ver songs, and it was on the silver
chords that Chairman Sloane struck the
responses.
Bryan*. Name Set ’Kin Wild.
The greatest demonstration of the
convention followed that part of Chair
man Sloane’s speech in which he re
ferred to William J. Bryan as the leader
o' the silver cause for 1900, and it was
with this climax that the speaker closed
his keynote speech.
The committee on rules and order of
business made the usual report, with the
exception of a supplemental report .on
the question of leaving one vacancy on
the state ticket to be tilled by the state
league of silver Republicans. The re
port referred the question back to the
convention without recommendation.
A communication was then presented
from the Populist state committee also
asking for a place on the Democratic
etate ticket with a view to fusion, the
place to be Ailed by the state committee
of the People's party.
The special report and the connnuni
oatAi to give the silver Republican!
SIX DOLLARS A YEAR,
CHAPMAN IS NAMED
The Jacksun Banker Nominated
For Governor.
Platform Reiteration of the One at
Chicago—McClain Led the
Force to Chapman.
Columbus, Ohio, June 30. —The demo
crat state convention today nominated
Horace L. Chapman, of Jackson, as the
democratic candidate for governor.
Chapman is president of the First Na
tional bank of Jackson, and a big coal
mine owner. He is not only very popular
with the business element, but is strong
•with the labor element, and it is believed
that he can carry the banner to victory.
The demands of the people have been
met and the platform is a reiteration of
the Chicago platform. John McLain
led the forces to Chapman by going over
from Howe, whose name was withdrawn,
ana ropuusts eacn a place on me state
ticket, were laid on the table after a
. heated discussion..
After the discussion of the report on
credentials, which settled immaterial
contests in the Fourth and Seventh con
gressional districts, the temporary or
ganization was made permanent.
General A. J. Warner, as chairman
of the committee on resolutions, re
ported the piatform, which was loudly
cheered and adopted.
Warner Makes Explanation.
General Warner explained that the
committee was unanimous in present
ing the majority report that covered
ably the financial question, but that
supplemental resolutions would be of
fered by the minority of the committee.
The anti-trust resolution, presented
to the committee by Casper Lowenstein
and adopted, is as follows:
“We here, y declare all trusts and mo
nopolies hostile and dangerous to the
people’s interest and a standing mi naie
to the perpetuity of our free institu
tions; and we demand the vigorous en
forcement of all anti-trust laws and
such additional legislation as may be
necessary for their immediate and final
suppression.”
L. O. Cole presented the Cuban reso
lution that had been offered to the com
mittee and it was adopted as follows:
“We demand the immediate recogni
tion of the belligerent rights of the re
public of Cuba as an act of justice to an
American nation struggling for liberty
against a foreign oppression, and we
denounce and protest against the action
of Senator Hanna in voting to nullify
the memorial presented to congress
unanimously by the legislature of Ohio
in favor of the Cuban patriots.”
BANK CLOSES ITS DOORS.
Taooms Union Saving* and Trust Company
In the Hands of a Receiver.
Tacoma, June 30.—The Union Bank,
Savings and Trust company has closed
its doors aud gone into the hands of a
receiver as a direct result of the recent
supreme court decision claiming a large
amount of city warrants to be illegal.
Judge Williams appointed Charles Rich
ardson to take charge.
The bank was organized in February,
1891, with, the late General William
Sprague as president. Chester Thomas
is vice president and A. R. Nichols
cashier. The capital stock is SIOO,OOO.
The deposits are small, the bank hav
ing been engaged chiefly iu the pur
chase of securities of cities, counties,
towns and school districts throughout
the northwest. It owns $155,000 of the
Tacoma general fund warrants and $lB,-
000 of the city hall warrants, the va
lidity of which was thrown into ques
tion by the supreme court decision
handed down Friday.
The bank will now ask for a rehear
ing in the supreme court and will alm
sue the city for some moneys paid lor
the warrants. In view of the supreme
court decision a receiver was consid
ered-advisable to protect all interests.
Cashier Nichols says every depositor
will be paid in full when the warrants
are realized on. He s, - s the stockhold
ers should receive the full value of tbeir
stock.
A BIG LAND DEAL CLOSED.
Wealthy French Syndicate to Establish a
Colony In Jalisco, Mexico.
Guadalajara, Mex., June 30.—Sev
eral months ago Jevos Benult, repre
senting a wealthy French syndicate, ar
rived here to investigate the opportuni
ties for colonizing 2,000,000 acres of
rich coffee lands in the state of Jalisco
with Frenchmen.
He examined the country carefully
and made a favorable report to the syn
dicate that sent him out, with the re
sult that negotiations have just been
closed for the purchase of the land, and
steps are being taken to bring out 20,500
French colonists.
The land lies on the western slope of
the Sierra Madre mountains and is said
to be the richest laud iu Mexico for ag
ricultural purposes. The colonists will
be brought from the southern part of
France and will pay a nominal price for
the land.
The Mexican government favors the
scheme, as it will give an impetus to
the settling up of that part of Mexico
which at present is a comparative wild
region. The coffee raised there is said
to be the best in Mexico and commands
a high price in the markets of the
world. The first lot us colonists will
arrive about Sept. 1.

Atlanta, June 30.—Thomas E. Wat

president, in an editorial in his People’s
Party Paper, just issued, discusses the
Populist conference to be held at Nash
ville next week and incidentally makes
a severe arraignment of National Chair

course of this editorial he siiys:
“We would really like to know how
i Populist principles are to grow by being
I traded off, first to one of the old parties
and then to the other; and we especially
hunger and thirst to know how warfare
on both the old parties is to thrive when
an office barter exchange is established
with both.
I “We trust the Nashville conference
will decide the vexed question of fu

can be uncertain of the party doctrine.
I “Our own belief is that no gentleman

If our voters are mere mercenaries to

Louisville, June 30. The Com

doing a building and loan business at

The Assets and liabilities are estimated
