WhenIInr,s suburban MoleI.

Wheeling wants suburban hotel con-
yenient TO the city, where her citizens
can rusticate during the summer months.
We suggest as suitable locality the foot
OF Wells hill on the opposite side o. The
river. The Pittsburgh, Wheeling q Ken
lucky railroad will be In operation belore
another season, bringing the place within
M hours ride Of Wheeling, and they can
hardly find q place better suited tor sum-
mer recreation within hundred miles
The scenery Is grand, tho water good and
the air invIgorating. The improvements
already completed make 1t one o. the
most delightful places Tor . ramble or
picnic, and q very slight additional ex'
pense would greatly enhance It's value In
this respect. Let our Wheeling friends
come up and examine these grounds be-
fore making a too hasty decislon.-Steu

This proposition TO have Wheeling
build q suburban hotel for SteubenvillI
is the coolest thing Of the season. A gar
den of cuCumbers or one-story ther-
mometer would be tOrril in comparison
But since reading the foregoing we have
been meditatlng on Pixies Peak as "H

who with heart rending shrieki
struggled vAiuly to extrlCate themselves
| In the meantime, Conductor Russell, Of the
passenger train, who was unhurt, and 6
number Of passengers from the real
coaches came forward and endeayored tc
assist the poor victims, but there was III
Ito leN to do beyond taking from tht
wreck the dying and wounded, many o
whom were tearfully scalded. Seven dice
soon after they were taken out, and ioul
have since died. The point Iwhert
the accident occurred Is near what d
known as the Sag, Q low, marshy
meadow, about half way between Lemon
and Willow Springs Station, and not
house in the neighborhood. The unhurt
passengers, however, took bedding from
the sleepers, and minlstered as much q
was possible under the circumstances tc
the wounded. ''
Russell hurried back on iO0tto Lemont
and telegraphed to Superintendent Nc
Mullen here for surgeons and aid. Mr.
McAIullen hastily got together hall-a-
dozen physicians and q supply Of such
articles as were necessary and started
about midnight with special train for
the scene Of the disaster, arriving there
about 1:SO this morning. Everything
possible was done for the sufferers, and
Of 9 o'clock this A. NJ. the train returned
to the city, bringing the uniDjured coaches
Of the wrecked tram, and all the dead and
wounded, except two fremen, who were
left at Lemont for burial. On arrival here
those Of the wounded, who resided here,
were taken to their homes, and the 9TH
ers were taken to the hospital with the
exception Of Capt, Smith and Mr. Fleury,
who were taken to the West Side Briggs
house. Neither Of these gentlemen, It Is
feared, can recover. The cause of the ac'
cident was the criminal recklessness OF
The conductor and engineer Of the coal
train, whose duty 1t was TO wait at
Lemont till the passenger train had
passed, unless they, had received
positive orders Ito proceed. This the
officers Of the road say was not the case,
and that the coal train should have staid
at Lemont. The conductor Of the coal
train is named Bean, and had been run

The Alleged Corruption In the N. "
Custom House.

NEW York, August 1.-THE herald
reiterates the statement that the names ot
sixty.one custom house officials whose
conduct should be investigated, have been
sent 10 Washington, and says there Is q
disposition to sacrifice the lesser officials
TO save the maguStes. 9Latements made
by men in high positions at the Custom
House have tended throw all the blame
upon the inspectors at the wharves.
This has been uone to save themselves
and for nothing less. The inspectors
have been abused for taking prerequisites,
but It Is not In their power to cheat the
revenue directly by any possible means,
The biggest sWlndling is done by thieI
GflcIAls at their desks In the Custom
House, who are permanently stationed
there, and have all the best opportunities
to make arrangements and TO tix bargainl
with importers,
