LOAFEHS CATCH ON.
A Happy Idea Hit Upon and the
SucceHH ol the Scheme
The sunshine this morning brought an
unusually large crowd of loalcrs to the
square bright and early. Some there
were who came to x in time for the
trial of the Salvation army, others came
to sec the superior court )cii , and a
large number came purel for loafing
purposes
But they gave the .National bank cor
ner a wide lerlh, those who could read.
The cause of this queer action was
soon seen
Posted in half a dozen places in the
windows of the bank, in letters that
were cruelly unmistakable, was this
meaning sentence: "The police will please
keep oil this corner and leave the place
I for loafers."
That was nil it said
But that seemed to be enough. Now
and then a gentleman of leisure could be
seen posing in the door of the bank when
some friend would approach and show
him the sign. Then he would take a walk
iu as quiet a manner us possible.
As a result the corner, which has
caused so much complaint, was kept
reasonably clear, and ladies had little
trouble in making their way past the
bank,
The cruel cut is laid at the door of
President TVa ldell, and it is feared that
whatever political aspirations that gen
tleman may herealtcr have will lie nip
led in the bud by these leisurely gentle
men, who regard the action as unwar
rantably cruel.
But they kept oil the comer and n reso
lution of thanks is in order to some one

CUMBERLAND RIVER'S
PHE-
NOMENAL RISE.
All the Lowland.) Overflowed and
Much Damage Done lo Properly
A Vasl Angry Forent.
Nashvii.i.i;, Tenn., Mnrch 9. A phe
nomenal rise has occurred in the Cum
berland river. At 1 o'clock this morn
ing the gauge read 40.6 feet, a rise since
Friday morning of 25.6 feet. More dam
age has been done by reason of the rapidi
ty of the rise than would otherwise have
occurred. Probably between 1,500 and
2,000 ieople have liecn driven from their
homes, nnd goods in warehouses and
cellars have suffered much damage. As
viewed from the bridge the river is a vast,
angry torrent.
Nearly all the lumber yards are over
flowed and in some considerable loss will
result.
Merchants were busy all day removing
goods from cellars and warehouses near
the wharf to high ground. At police
headquarters many inquiries for shelter
arc being made. Reports from all points
on the river show that it is rising every
where, and the fullness of the Ohio and
Mississippi will prevent the Cumberland
from running down as rnpidly as it
otherwise would.
KILLED IN THE WRECK.
A Train Runs) OH" the Track and
HuriiH.
Pkokia, III., March 9. The locomotive
of the Jacksonville Southern fast passen
ger train, over the Atchison, Toixrka
and Santc Fe, which left here yesterday
morning, struck a curve at a switch near
Havana and left the track. All the cars
followed, piling up in great confusion.
The half dressed passengers clambered
out of the windows and through the roof
of the demolished curs ami hastened,
barefooted through sleet and over icy
roads for the nearest houses.
Under the engine was Fireman Saddler,
who was instantly killed. Engineer
George Birkenhead, of this eitf, had one
arm and one leg cut off.
The others injured arc: Edward Hem
well, of Peoria, burned and badly bruised.
Walter Conover, Manito, 111., left arm
torn out nnd fatal injuries. Charles
Mulvaney, Strecter, 111., back nnd head
crushed, will die. Miss Emma Bushtou,
St. Louis, seriously bruised. Ex
press Messenger Hater, of Chicago,
left foot lorn off and badly bruised. F.
P. Iewis, Peoria, seriously jammed in
hreast.
The wreck immediately took fire and
burned with great rapidity. It was with
the utmost dilhculty that sonic of the
passengers were rescued, and one or two
were severely burned. The loss to the
company, including death and accident
claims, will not fall farshortof $100,000.
