FATAL RAILROAD AoCIDANr.
Run OE ON the TX and o. Road. Caused
by Rock Slide
VIM Au1s. Brak' man. Found LifeIess
in the Debris.

VIM. AOls. Brakt man. Found LIfeless
in the Debris.
The night coal train on the Knox
vile and Ohio Railroad, which left
Coal Greek for Knoxville Thursday
night, ran into a fearful obstruction in
the shape of rock slide: at Kirkpat-
rick's, between Coal Creek and Gins
ton, about half past 8 o'clock, and the
result was a frightful smash up, re-
sulting, as was afterwards discovered,
in the death also of VIM. Ault, a
brakeman on the train.
The engine was partially thrown
from the track and slightly crippled,
but nine loaded cars were badly wreck
ed. Dennis Gleason, the engineer,
walking part of the way and coming
the rest on a dump, came to Knox
vile for another engine. When he
left, search had been made everywhere
for VIM. Ault, one Of the brakemen
but he was nowhere to be found,
and it WIS not known whether
he had been lft at Coal
Creek or killed in the wreck.
Still further search, however, resulted
in the horrible discovery of his dead
body in one cIal car, with another
turned over it. Hs was u married man
and leaves a wife and family of small
children. He was q con of Mr.. G. w.
AuIt, a section boss on the line, and
nephew of Capt. J. w. Ault, conductor
and mail agent on the passenger train.
Engineer Gleason took another en-
CINE out TO the scene of the wreck and
brought in his engine yesterday. Her
| injuries can soon be repaired. Capt.
Kinzel went out and force of hands
were put to work clearing up the de.
bris. The regular passenger and mail
train was unable to pass, however, and
did not get to Knoxville till near
o'clock last night, and returned imme'
diately.
No one else was hurt in the accident
Engineer Gleason reports that he
struck another slide at Sharp's as he
came in, and q track had to be con-
structed around that yesterday before
the trains could pass.

HeRdHIck sktps Out.

John D. Headrick, of BlOunt coun-
ty, as our readears will remember, was
found guilty in three cases in the Fed
eral Court Thursday for violation of
the revenue law, resisting officers, ETC.,
but sentence was not passed on him,
and he was allowed TO go, still on his
bond OF, So 500. At the meeting of the
court yesterday morning, when the
case was called NJ, Headrick was no.
where to be found, and il soon became
evident that he had taken
leg bail during the night, and slOped
to escape the penalty Of the law,
which, considering the aggravstion of
the case, would naturally be expected
to be heavy one. FOrfeiLGres were
entered against him and a Scire .facjaS
awarded for bim 1t is supposed he
has gone back to Biouut county, and
whether,he will be picked up or not we
are unable TO say. He is the owner of
considerable wealth, and has sufficient,

The SehOrn Fraud,

Fraudulent and swindling opera
tions of the recently unearthed opera
tors, A. O. II. P. Sehorn, of Murfrees-
boro', and his confederate, d. G.
Howell, of Chattanooga, both promi.
nent Odd Fellows, continue to be de-
veloped. The american makes another
publication Tuesday, going to show
that their timely exposure prevented
another extensive swindle. Some
mislaid letters of theirs were found,
showing that they were attempting to
get into the Knights of Honor, Work
men, Forresters and other Orders, with
the ostensible purpose of pushing
their fraudulent operations.
The american is authority for the
statement that in 1856 Sehorn pur-
chased 5000 worth of jewelry from a
Philadelphia house which he failed to
pay for. They took the matter to the
courts, had the stock ordered sold, but
Sehorn was kept in the store with the
belief that he could do better with the
stock. A young man was given
charge, however. One night the safe
was robbed of it's contents. Sehorn
attempted to prove it on the young
map, but it came out that he was the
guilty party. To prevent criminal
prosecution one of his brothers paid
him out of it.
Howell confessed all to bosom
friends in Chattanooga, and lit out
Saturday night, saying he was going
to Nashville to fix up" matters. He
has held several offices in Chattanooga
and has always borne a good reputa-
ton, He left a wife and three children.
In speaking of the affair, the EUee-
ing NeWs says:
at has been suggested that perhaps
the Ashtabula disaster was part of a
deep-Iaid plan to secure large amounts
of insurance and damages. The acct
dent was very difficult to account for,
but it would be horrible to think that
we had men among US SO heartless as
to cause such a terrible disaster Tor
