4 RAILWAY TRAIN QN EIRE ON THE GERA?

NOBTHERN ZINN.

DESTRUCTION OF KLARIEOFF, THE DERBY
FAVOURITE.
On Tuesday afternoon a fire broke out in the train
which left Ir'ng's Cross station, London, at 12 o'clock at
noon, for the north, which resulted in the destruction of
Klarikoff, who was a favourite for the late Derby. It •p-
-pars that by the above passenger train Maraca and sere.
rat other horses in the training of Mr. J. Scott WON ley.
ing their recent quarter, at Leatherbeed for Mallon. The
train consisted, best, of the engine, thee hear bone-bones,
followed by a horse-van, and the tail was nods up by the
carriages, and the guard's van. Rlarikoff was
=Doror.veyed in the vas, which was placed upon • truck,
and the animal was attended by three stable boys, who
occupied • spare compartment. Another person of the
name of Cliff, who bad the superintendence of their re-
reveal, rode in the guard's van. The train proceeded safely
as far ris Rettord, where the van containing Klarikoff
wee examined and all found to be safe. A few MUM further
earthman* and before reaching the Bawtry static's one of
the youths in the van, and in fact the only one who was
awake, was alarmed by • smell of fire, and on looking to
the upper pertioo of the treat of the van, he saw that it
we la a bias. He immediately mired the two Asp at-
tached to the horse's tether, but the strong bresse with
which the Sores were gamut la the train's rapid
along the line, almost saameefarily caused the vicars=
of the van to kssesae ems masa of fire. The youth had hie
hair tined, and the lames enveloping the bead of Klarikoft,
the Pima emassmsesd to kick violently. This Wind the
two and they and their ompl2 at
once=eir esil.smacialletlrom the door at the beck of ma
on to the busk. Klarikors phuigea in the agony the
animal was suffering now became so dretruielee te the ma
theta part of the side was forced out, and the beimuthaving
thus obte • vent through the box, it wminetantly one
mem of Ars. The three youths who had maple esught
refuge is front of the Meek, sad thus escaped any i=
from the flame, which were blowing in the
don, though one of them, to keep himself froTtlag, bad
to have rotary's to holding oa to some of the hoe week of
the von from which the wood had been burnt, and, from
the beat of the metal, was slightly injured. Nothing
of the above eireumelanes appeared to be booms to Sc.
peons is the ether rot el the main. The youths, how-
ever, succeeded in gaialagthe attention of some platelayers
who were working on the line, who,in their turn, ultimately
alarmed the magiseshieer and paid. This led to the stop-
page of the taste a little northwards of Bavrtry, and thee it
was fouad that the van was totally consumed. The horse
was bunt to • cinder, only a small portion of the hoots
being left attached to the shem,fted a large number of valu-
able articles belonging to Mr. and Mrs. J. Scott, meek/lag of
saddlery, groceries, milks, were destroyed. The fe-
males of Kiarikof were drawn up into a small space at eon
cream of the truck, and wee afterwards taken off the twin
and busied. A singular fact in connexion with this animal
is, that whilst being conveyed to Epsom in the same box
ma, • fire broke out therein, but was extinguished before
any harm had been done. It appears that the van is a very
old and dry one, and it is supposed that • spark from the
Amities bid set it on fire. The youths who were in the vs.
mat stall were examined yesterday (Wednesday) morning in
York, by the railway authorities, with • view to arriving
at the troll cams, but nothing was stated to alter the gene-
ral suppomitise.
The loss will prove • severe one, not only to Mr. Howard,'
bat also to Lord St. Vincent, who, two days prior to the
Derby, gars 5,000 guises for half of him, with half of hie
awesome* and the home had latterly bear basked for a
large sum for the Doncaster St. Leger.
