RAIL WAY CATASTROPHE.

LOWELL, Mass, Aug. ga shocking
accident occurred on the Lowell and
Lawrence Railroad Saturday night, by
which five youths of this city lost their
lives. A Caledonian picnic was held
during the day at Smiths Grove, in the
town of Andover, where these boys had
been participating. Either for lack Of
money or for sport they contrived to
Chamber on top of passenger car in the
train which left Lawrence at 7:30 p. m.
When the train reached Sprague's bridge,
two miles from this city, in the town of
Tewksbury, all five were swept off and
killed. At the time it was only known
that one had met death in this manner.
This was John Shinnock, Is years old.
He was thrown down between the cars
on the platform, where the conductor
found him. He lived about twenty min
utes, but was unconscious. The body was
brought here and identified. Some time
later the trackmen found the bodies of
the others lying in the bitches, three on
one side of the track, one on the other.
A freight train was sent from here and
brought them in about midnight They
were William Maher, Is years; John
Mcnamara, 16; Timothy Nolan, IL;
Patrick Ryan, Is. There is a space of
twenty-five inches between cars and
roof; therefore it is conjectured that the
lads were sitting up when struck. Prob
ably all but Shinnick died almost in
stantly, as their wounds on the head and
back were terrible. The undertaken s
room, where the bodies lie, has been
thronged to-day.

OURAY's DEATH Los PNos AGEN-
CY, Col, Aug. rs via Lake City, Col,
Aug. 28.-An Indian arrived last night
from a southern agency with communi-
cation from DIR. Lacey to the effect that
Ouray's case is hopeless one; that he is
unconscious, and has not recognized him
since his arrival. A consultation of three
physicians has so decided, and report that
the public may expect to hear of his
death at any moment. Chippeta, his
wife, is with him. The Uncompaghre
Utes are almost in a panic at the very
thought of his demise, and the bands are
already discussing his probable successor
from among the various candidates who
are crowding to the front Chief Sapo-
vonara will, undoubtedly, be the man.
The commission has accomplished moth
ing as yet at the Southern agency toward
the signing of the treaty. The death OF
Ouray will complicate matters, and may
delay the settlement of the Ute question
at least year.
1890 p. ma runner has just arriv-
ed announcing Ouray's death.

The reunion of surviving prisoners of
the war, to be held in Indianapolis dur

complete success, and over 1000 ex-
prisoners are expected to be present. AL
ready advices have been received from a
large number, signifying their intention
to be present. Excursion rates will be
charged by nearly all the railroads in the
country, and every inducement will be
offered to make the reunion even more of
a success than that held at Toledo last
year.

The recent rumors to the effect that
Jay Gould and his associates in the Wa

cured full control Of the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western Railroad, and will
at once extend its tracks from the present
terminus at Binghamton, N. Y, to Buff
alo and Niagara Falls, to connect with
the grand Trunk and the Wabash lines,
have been fully confirmed. The exten-
sion is to be pushed at once, and the
western connections made early next year.
This will give the present great east and
west trunk lines from the seaboard to the
West one more formidable competitor.

THE FIGHT IN New YoRK.-NEw
YORK, Aug. 25.-The Herald again re-
Dukes the eggreious mismanagement of
the Democratic canvass in New York
1t says the union of the two factions is
more doubtful than it was when the Gin
cinnati nominations were announced.
Tammany will accept nothing less than
full recognition of its regularity in the
contest for patronage at the next munici-
pal election. Tilden Democrats find them
selves "between the devil and the deep
sea- If they give into the claims of
Tammany they virtually surrender the
city patronage to the Tammany faction.
If they resist the claims of Tammany they
give the State to Garfield, and will be
held responsible for his election. They
will be forced to surrender, and the con-
sequent triumph of Trammany will make
them comparatively Indifferent to the
success Of the national ticket. The New
York feud may yet be healed, but it
would have been worth thousands of
votes to close it Immediately after Han
cocks nomination; it is not yet certain
it will be healed at all, and if it remains
open, Garfield will be our next President.

In his efforts to allay the excitement
and alarm of the North, Wade Hampton
has at least disgusted the chivalry of Vir-
ginia, to whom he appealed to vote as
Lee and Stonewall Jackson would today
have voted. 1t is said that astonishment
prevails through the whole country around
Staunton at the attitude assumed by
Hampton since the speech, and the rebel
Colonels and Generals are inquiring, with
eyes in fine frenzy rolling, why he should
be ashamed of sentiments which are the
only ones they ever hear or would even
tolerate.

City on her way down from Mackinaw,
with full load of freight and passengers,
left Alcona at go this afternoon. About
A o'clock when off Sturgeon Point, fire
was discovered in the hold, before effec-
tive efforts could be taken, the flames be-
came unmanageable. The efforts of the
crew were at once directed to saving the
passengers. The tug Vulcan fortunately
was in sight and hastened to relief, as did
also the boats of the life-saving station at
the Point, and several small boats from
the shore These picked up large num-
Der of persons in the water, chiefly from
Detroit Port Huron, and up-shore ports;
also the following:

A number have been taken to Sturgeon
Point, where the names have not been
obtained. Captain Conner and crew. of
the Marine City, acted with great cool
ness, and Captain Hackett and crew, of
the tug Vulcan, rendered valuable assist
ance, as did also the ife-saving crew.
Those rescued are all at Alcona The
Marine City was fine passenger boat,
fourteen years old, and valued at $50, 900;
insured for $4,000. The steamer was
owned by Gallagher & Warner, of this
city.
