PITTsBURG, Sept. 13-Shortly before 8
O'Clock last night a frightful accident occur
red on the Pennsylvania railroad one mile
east of Wilmore, by which one man was
killed and several wounded, ali the trains
east and west delayed and large amount
of property destroyed. The accident was
Enthusiastically the result of violation of the
req ulations in reference to the opening and
closing of switches from the main track at
the point named. A freight train bound
east switched from the main track to the
middle siding according to orders, so as to
allow the Philadelphia Express to pass A
westward bound freight came darting along
before the switch at the last end If the sid
ing could be turned to the main track. The
westward train IAN en- the siding and collid-
ed with the train which was lying there.
About the same moment the Philadelphia
express passenger train east came along
and passed safely until the rear sleeper was
reached, when one of the eastward bound
freight struck it and badly wrecked it. One
lady who occupied seat in tbs rear car re-
ceiVed number of bruises from the flying
debris, but was not seriously injuret. The
express train was not seriously damaged,
but the escape from total wreck was al
most miraculous. The engineer of the
westward freight train was caught in the
cab Of his engine and received such injuries
as to cause death instantly. The engineer
and fireman of the e stward train was in
jured badly, but not fatally. Three loco
motives, one pusher and two engines, were
almost totally destroyed. A number of
freight cars were also demolished. The
different tracks around the siding and the
ground, for q considerable distance, were
torn up. -a- ZIG

the progress of the disease as we deem me-
cessary, Up to this time there have been
about thirty deaths from this disease since

The town and cou0try were startled last
Friday with the appearance of decided
case of cholera. A man namad Brown,
from indiana, and just from Lebanon, KY,
where tue cholera was raging, was taken
down, and died on Saturday. he had ev-
identity brought the seeds of the disease
with him, which developed after his coming
here. On Sunday, Mr.. D. P. Hayman,
a traveller of the Fairbanks Scale Agency
of A. w. Cady, at Nashville, who had been
travelling in Ksdtucky. also, was taken vio
lently. For day or two he was 10 bad
condition, but the cholera was mastered
and shifted to a braiu fever, and at this
writing Friday morning), he is in fair
way of recovery. His father Snd sister,
from Newport, KY, have been in attend
ance upon him during the week.
There is no alarm felt at Gallatin, there
being no reasonable probability of any ex-
tension of the disease. The cond tions of
the weather and the unu ual good health of
the town, both promise exemption from
another visitation. Business goes on as
usual, the schools are largely attended,
and our country friends need have no

CHEATING is inanitaIY yarious and II

CHEATING is infinitely various and re-
quires a great deal mere ingenuity than
honesty does. The latest thing is the bo-
gus pup dog. A London gentlemen writes
to the newspapers That man near the Crys-
tai P lace offered him two puppies for sale,
one real Cuba worth fI, aud the other
black and-white Japanese terrier, priced
at f3. The writer, on stroking the pup
pies, found in them a strong resemblance
to the feline race, particularly about the claws
and teeth; ard when one of them actually
purred, it dawned upon him that the pup
pies were kittens trimmed and cut in ca
nine fashion. The vender laughed when
he was found ont; and the nextdaY actually
sold one of the "pupp;es" to a little girl.

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.--Kenyon, Cox &
Co., bankers and brokers, Wall street, sus-
pended to-day. Daniel Drew was special
partner in the house. The real trouble has
been large advances to the Canada and
Southern r4ilroad, some of which are now
beginning 10 fall due. Messrs. Kenyon,
Cox, Daniel Drew and others, it is under
stood, loared their paper to assist in COM
pleting the road, trusting to further nego-
tiation of bonds at London. Last Monday
advices were received from London stating
that it was impossible at present to negotiate
more bonds. "a. -.,-5 -
Mr.. Cox, when questioned this evening,
said the Canada Southern railway owes
S2,250, 900, and has $3,250,000 of the first
mortgage bonds of its own and connecting
roads. As late as last Monday favorable
advices were received by cable in regard to
placing bonds abroad. Cox said notes OF
the railroad to the amount Of 81 SOC, 900,
bearing the Endorsement of himself and
Drew, will mature within thirty days. II

rators of Wall street, but this is the fist
