Railroad Accident.

CHICAGO, January 25.-The locomo.
tive OF the freight express on the North
western Railroad, coming in this city
this morning, jumped the track just as
the train was passing the haywood local
passenger train, and ran into the latter,
injuring MIR. Clydesdale, wife, three
daughters and son, who were sitting in
the rear passengcr.car. Mr.. Clydesdale
is srcported to be dying, but the rest Of the
family are not seriously hurt. The acci'
dent Is thought TO be due to the accumu'
lation OF ice at tho frog, or an imperfect
rail. The express was running at the
rate of about twenty-five miles an hour,
but the force was broken somewhat be.
fore the collision by the locomotive,
which had been broken from the rest oil
the train, striking on q number of the
ties. The rest of the train kept the main
track, but by oscillation were probably
thrown against the side OF the cars of the
other train and smashed them considera-
bly,. Fortunately the passengers who
were expecting TO come in on the May.
wood train were on the platform, or
there might have been great loss OF life.
Mr.. Clydesdale Is o well known real es.
tate dealer in this city, who resides in
haywood.

lreshed your memory as to other mem
bers OF Congress whom you let have

tional except Logan. The reason l did
not mention him before was that he Is
not q member of the House now.
BY Mr.. McCrary-Dld Logan give you
any reason for returning the money! A.
l don't think he did.
Mr.. Ames-I want to say further to the
Committee that have been asked why !
held this stock, and why / did not give 1t
TO the members themselves. The reason
was that the Credit Mobilier stock itself
was moi entitled to dividends. he said
the stock was held by him in trust, he
having signed the contract, making him
self personally responsible, and he was
the only person who could draw the diVi'
dends.

gress having received stock in that road

believedth Allison aud Blaine had also
purchased and paid for stock In the road.
No member got stock without paying for

The inability" or "unwillingness" Of
the railroad companies having lines run
ming through Chicago to furnish sufl-
cient number Of cars for the shipment Of
cattle to tho Eastern markets, has OF late
