CHILD KILLED IN YUMA
First Railroad sTish ap in Arizona

ITSC R8IHCCau iR ASn aD 1n Af1ZOna.
 On Monday evening, about G:10, occur red a shocking accident on the railroad, nearly opposite the Court House. At that hour the train had arrived from Adonde, and was taking up the sleeping g-coach and other ears on the side track. A boy about nine years old, named Ricardo Vanegas, was stealing a ride cn the empty flat-cars; {; having been seen there and once driven off by some of the train-hands. As 1t was after dark no farther notice was taken of him. About half an hour later, and after the train had left for California, a stranger ported having seen the body of a child on the track. Search was at once made with lanterns, and the fragments of Ricardo'S body were found lying near the switch, where the rails of the main and s,de tracks are about eleven inches apart His body was completely severed across the pit of his stomach by cars passing over the side-track; and both legs were cut off above the knees, on the main track; showing that the cars must have passed over him more than once. The tops of the rails were as smooth and cean as if nothing had happened; not Q shred of flesh nor thread ofclothing were on them, 10 show that they had borne passive part i'll so completely cutting that little corpse. The child's clothing was not much soiled; there was no blood under the body, nor did any stain the cloth upon which t was gathered up. The weight of the ear evidently first squeezed the blood back into the flesh before the vessels were severed, and it's grinding pressure must have so twisted up their ends as to prevent escape of blood. The child lay on his back, with cleuched fists held up near his head. Neither face nor body showed other signs Of agony; his death must have been al- most instantaneous, as the car-wheels cut him in two without even rolling hi1n oyer How he happened to fail under the cars no one knows; no one saw him; nc one heard him. The following is the verdict of the Coroner's Jury: We the undersign- ed, Coroner'S Jurors summoned to inquire into the cause of the death of boy named Ricardo Hanegas, who was found dead on the railroad track nearly opposite the Court House of Yuma, Yuma County, Arizona, do find from evidence that the said boy had been riding on the train, on the night Of January 27th, 1879, and we believe that he fell between the cars and was run over hy them, and was killed and that no blame can be attached to any person but the deceased

 That no similar accident has before oc- cured is a matter of general surprise here. Ever since the cars began to run here. eighteen months ago, the boys have been crazy to steal rides on them. The train men have repeatedly warned parents, and have done all they could to keep boys of and to prevent their climbing onto cars in moton. but the little fellows have been like flies; driven off from one car they lit on another. Since the accident we notice that boys give the cars wide berth.

During heated campaign between
two candidates for Congress ia Ken
tucky, the following is said to have
occurred
The two candidates were riding
along together, making their way
iEJm one appointment to another.
Just ahead of them, a short distance,
they discovered some one riding a
mule. He was barefoOted and ragged,
bis costume consisting of pair of
breeches, one suspender and q slouch
hat. Said the Wing TO the Democrat :
"I'n bet you q basket of champagne
against the dinners for the week, that
our fiend just ahead of Us is Demo-
crat.'
"I'l take your bet, " said the Demo-
cTat.
They hurried on and overlook
the native. They found when they
reached him that he was drunk, also.
Whereupon, the Whig felt sssured
tFat his dinners for the week were
earned. So he said:
Good day, my friend!"

NEW YORK.

New YORK, May &c. A. Hoyt,
Commissioner.of Indian Affairs and
President of the International
Trust Company of Jersey City, with
F. D. Kerrand, G. M. Field and
other officers of the Company, have
been indicted by the Grand Jury of
Hudson county, New Jersey, for
publishing a statement of the affairs
of the Company which, the bill
alleges, they well knew to be false,
and which was published with the
intent to induce persons to intrust
their money with the corporation.
The Trust Company failed last year
owing depositors over SIT, 900.
Yesterday he pleaded not guilty, and
declares that the prosecution is i'm
cited by political motives. The
Times says, however, that the
Grand Jury which indicted him
was drawn by Republican Sheriff,
and that the other members of the
Board of Trustees were not in
dicted, because they were not active
in directing its operations and prob
ably knew nothing of the way in
which its business was managed.
