Uses to be most attractive exhibition.
The Car is entering into the work of
preparing for it with great earnestness
and zeal. The Russians are celebrated
for the excellence of their fairs, and their
department of the forthcoming exhibi-
ton will be very fnll. Arrangements are
making for the ereditable representation
Of this country in the great fair, and we
may expect that ST Petersburg will be

The Alabama Legislature has ratified
the Fifteenth Amendment to the Ma
tional Constitution. The vote in the Sen
ate was yeas "A, nays none; in the House
yeas 60, nays 16. This renders the
ratification by a sufficient number of
states nearly certain. The lower house
of the Tennessee legislature has refused
to ratified the amendment, and it is said
that the senate will do likewise. We
have always supposed that Tennessee
would refuse to ratify, although the SEN
ate party said it would.

FEARFUL RAILROAD ACCIDENT IN
CALIFORNIA.
Collision Between Two Trains Going at
Twenty Miles an HOur-Ten to Eff
teen Persons Killed-ThIrty to Fifty
Wounded,
SAN Francisco, Nov. IA.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. IA.
A few minutes past 800 A. NJ, the
eastward bound train on the Western
Pacific railroad, eight cars, including the
sleeping cars, collided with the Almeda
Ferry train, four cars, near San Leandro,
both trains going at the rate of twenty
miles an hour. The engines are perfect
wreck. -The cars were smashed and
driven through one another. The West
ern Pacific train left promptly on time,
but the morning was SO foggy the engine
CT with difficulty could see any distance
ahead. On arriving at the switch where
the Western Pacific connects, the Alme-
da train passed slowly, the switch tender
was questioned wether the Almeda train
had passed and he announced "All right.
Go ahead. f" Soon after the trains came
together with crash. The first passen-
ger car of the Western Pacific was driven
through the smoking car. The other
cars were badly damaged.
The killed and wounded were mostly
on the Western Pacific train. When
the cars colided the passengers were
driven together and crushed among the
ruins.-It was with great difficulty that
many could be extricated. The legs of
one man we're amputated before ne could
be released from the cars. The sleeping
car passengers were unhurt, The badly
wounded were sent to Almeda. Great
excitement prevailed during the day.
The catasttophy has cast gloom over
the entire people Of the city. The an
nouncement Of the accident was read
from the pulpits during the morning
service.

LATER.
SAN Francisco, Nov. IA.

Seventeen dead bodies have been re-
covered from the wrecked cars. Eleven
were brought to the dead house at Oak
land. 1t is estimated that twenty were
wounded. The scene of the disaster is
described as heartrending in the ex.
IRENE, the separation of the telescoped
cars revealing crushed humanity. There
are different statements as to the cause
Of the accident. The Western Pacific
train, being ahead of time, should have
waited at Diamond Station for the pass
age OF the Almeda train The fault was
with the station master where the Alne-
da and Western Pacific road connects,
who said the Almeda train was behind
time, and he'd be id if he d wait for it
and went into the house for breakfast.
While there the gravel train passed down
which he supposed was the Almeda
train. When the Western Pacific came
up, the conductor inquired whether the
Almeda had passed. He said, all right,
go ahead"
