OFF THE TRACK.

a Broken Rail on the st. Paul d Pacific
Railroad Thro.cs T,velUe Cars from, the
Irach and Delays Travet T,celve HOURS.
A broken fail on the st. Paul & Pacific
road, just outside the city limits, caused an
accident and delayed travel about twelve
hours, killed three head of cattle and de-
stroyed large amount of wheat. The
freight train due in this city on Wednesday
morning at APO o'clock and in charge of
Hugh Evans, was making good time when the
engineer noticed broken rail Eahead.
The locomotive and two cars passed over
safe, but string of fiat cars jumped the
track and five box cars followed before the
train could be stopped, the last car which
left the track was loaded with cattle, of which
three were killed. Fortunately the brake
men were all in the caboose at the rear of
the train and SO escaped injury. The broken
rail was caused by the action of the frost. q

The people throughout the State will not
have the money to spend that they had last
fall, and are not going to attend these fairs
In any such number as they did last year, SO
that it would have been a very sensible action
to have held but one. ST. Paul was much
the most reasonable in her proposition, and
can hardly be censured in sticking to it.
Minneapolis has evinced mulish stubborn
ness which does not make good showing on
the part of that enterprising city.
