OFF THE Track.
A Locomotive Runs Two Niles with one
Wheel OF the Rail.

BosToS, January Is. The Boston & Alba
ny road had a narrow escape from terrible
accident the other night. When the engine
left the 100 train at the Pittsfeld depot and
switched out of the way Of the relief locomo-
tive, il was found that the Journal was brok-
en-, and it was afterwards ascertained that the
train had come distance of two miles with
one of the locomotive wheels off the track
and running on the snow and ice between the
rails.
Neither the fireman nor engineer had no.
ticed anything unusual in the running OF tho
train, and were greatly astoni-hed when the
accident was discovered, which was not until
the attempt was made to back the engine into
the roundhouse.
The train has two sleepers and three ordi-
nary coaches, and usually a full complement
OF passengers. Had the wheel entirely brok-
en- off and dropped upon the track, the train
must have been wrecked, with probably
large loss Of life for il was hurried at full
speed, to make up 20 minutes lost time.

for the benefit Of Insurance companies. Ii
these companies had any right to award, il.

perfect right, why had they not got into court
instead OF coming to Congress! After Con-
gress had declared the insurance companies
had no claim in equity or law, yet they had
come over again with arguments, speeches,
even logging members in their seats, hoping
to weary Congress and thereby get their claim
through.

ment excluding the claims of insurance com
panies unless they show in respect to their
war risks, that their losses exceed their
