Quite chapter of accidents and casu-
alties have taken place the last week in
and about Beilaire. A son of our
esteemed fellow citizen, Baltyon Strobel,
was killed below Pittsburgh by the cars
running over him while asleep upon the
track. He had been on duty two or
three nights previous, and sat down to
rest a few minutes and fell asleep to
wake no more in this life. He was bur-
led here on Thursday last. = & <-.,i
"A lad by the name of Hartenstein
came to his death in singular way
He was out swimming in the river. and
had gotten, between two Coal Flats
when Steamer came along and threw
the flats violently together, crushing his
head to jelly, instantly killing him.
Mr.. John Fink, Jr,, son Of John Fink
of,South Bellaire, was brutally assaulted
on Wednesday by some ruffian, whose
name did not learn, and nearly killed.
He is in a;precariods condition yet-tile

cause.A III or usTAvE
Theiiquor interest-appears to be def.

The story of Chancellor Lansing, a
man once well known in this State, and
still remembered by few survivors, has
never yet been published. The maga-
zine writer truly says that he left New
York hotel, eHe afternoon forty years
ago, to take boat for Albany, where he
resided The porter who handed him
his bag was the last person known to
have seenhim alive. He never reached
the Albany boat, and he was never
heard of again. Naturally his disappear
ance created profound sensation, for
he held high position, and was a man
full of years and honor" The writer to
whom we have referred says: His
place on earth has been made vacant,
but there is not, and can never be, any
record of how, or when, or where. He
may have died that day; he may have
lived for years afterward.n
In the hypothesis thus put forward,
the writer In common. with the general
body. of the public, Is mistaken. We
speak under authority when we say
that every incident connected with the
disappearance of Chancellor Lansing is
well known to a gentleman now living.
The secret was. confded to him by a
distinguished citizen of this State, now
deceased, whose name always command
ed and does still command respect. The
survivor was enjoined to publish all the
circumstances when certain persons
specified were dead. This condition has
been fulfilled, and it is probable that a
narrative calculated to startle the public
will yet be given to the world. There
will then no longer be room left for a
single doubt in reference to Chancellor
Lansing's fate. We do not feel ourselves
at liberty to hint at the nature of the
revelation to he mades but this we may
say. that it will be well authenticated,
ard that it will form one of the most re-
markable pages in the history of the
public men of this country.-New York
