COLLISION ON THE New LONDON RAIL
RoAD.-Quite a serious accident occur
red on the New London railroad, be-
tween Palmer and Three Rivers, Tues
day afternoon, which was the result of
gross carelessness or ignorance. H. H.
Randall, the telegraph operator and
signal agent at Barrett's station, left his
post in the hands Of an incompetent per-
son, who gave the wrong signal, which
allowed a freight train from the north
to pass when the AthOl train from
Palmer was nearly due. The Athol
mixed train left Palmer at 1870, about
one hour late, and just as it had passed
over the bridge near Burleigh crossing
was stopped by the freight train from
the north Both engines were thrown
from the track and very badly disman-
tied. Both engineers reversed their en-
gines, jumped and were not much hurt.
The operator at Barretts station receiv-
ed the most injury and died at six
o'clock. A passenger from Chicopee,
name unknown, was also injured. W.
S. Chamberlain of North Dana. section
master, Mr. White of Athol, section
master, and Patrick Clifford, section
master, were all more or less injured
but not fatally,

BUTTER.
o. Al t.,r,.

The market at St Albans was active.
Common to fair, 20 to 25 cents medium
to good, % to 30 cents choice, 30 to So
cents.
The receipts at Boston for the week
were 1926 packages against 6844 pack
ages for the corresponding week last
year. There has been an increased de-
mand for butter during the past week
and on medium and choice grades prices
have advanced ! to cents per pound.
The supply of fine fall has run quite
short, and buyers have been compelled
to take straight diaries at prices which
they refused to pay two or three weeks
ago Prime lots of fall made Vermont
and New Y ork have been sold at "a to
50 cents, and at the close gilt-edged
round lot would readily command 36
cents per pound. For choice dairics
there has been considerable inquiry,
with sales mostly 80 to 81 cents per
pound, and SO is now the outside price,
which is an advance Of cents per
pound on last weeks prices Fair to
good lots that could be bought at 90 to
26 cents have been in demand, and the
stock remaining in receivers hands is
considerably reduced and held at an adj
vance The proportion Of common but
ter on the market is not large and prices
are firmer, with sales ranging from Is
to 20 cents per pound. A large portion
of the receipts this week have been from
Canada, principally the high grades, for
which full prices have been obtained.
One lot of $50 packages gilt-edged sold
at IS cents, other fine lots at SO to 81
cents per pound and fair to good at %
to % cents. The stock of butter in the
hands of dealers is believed to be quite
small, and a good demand at full prices
is expected for some time to come.
The market continues firm and figures
slightly advance. The prospect is that
prices will continue good, and the mar
ket be well cleared before new begins to
come into market. Selected half firkin
State sells at 40@45c, and choice firkins
go at 26@37c. Welsh tubs are quoted
at 3O@36c. The Price Current reviews
the market as follows: The market for
State butter has continued very strong
during the past week and prices have
favored the seller on good to fine diaries
and half firkin tubs; sales of the former,
exceptionally fine, are reported as high
as 39c, but that rate is extreme and rath-
er too high for quotation few entire
diaries exceed 36c and good many are
sold at and below Csc. The demand
this week has been principally of local
character though we have had some
orders and buyers from the eastern
cities we think that our city retailers
have been inclined to ''stock up" a
little in anticipation of further advance.
It seems almost certain that we shall be
able to carry out present rates, perhaps
a little higher on some grades to the END
of the season. We have yet sixty days
before new butter, in any quantity, is
likely to appear. We learn from Canada
that English orders for medium grades
are being filled there quite extensively.
The best grades of Canadian are fairly
salable here at 30@33c, and it appears
as If we should be able to use a consid-
cradle quantity of quite low grade as

A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY. "A terrible ira
gedy was enacted near Carrollton, Missouri,
on Friday night last. ROBERT AUSTIN,
young farmer residing about eight miles
from Carrolltou, suspected his wife of in
fidelity, and on that day left home, saying
he was going to the St. Louis Fair, and
would be absent several days. He went to
the depot, but returned home after dark !,
and secreted himself in closet in his wife's
bedroom armed with double barreled shot
gun. His wife soon retired, aud shortly
after ELIJAH HALEY entered the room and
undressed himself As be was getting in
to bed AUSTIN sprang out and tired, but
missed HALEY, the shot entering his wife's
abdomen. AUSTIN fired again at HALEY
ADD killed him Instantly. Mrs. AUSTIN
died Saturday afternoon. AUSTIN has sur
rendered himself to the authorities All
parties are highly connected.

Especial interest in her appointment. So
