New London Northern Railroad Ac-

cident.
 Norwich had quite an excitement Thursday when the locomotive of the passenger train which was run into by the freight train near
 Thames Grove came dashing into the city.
 It had neither engineer nor fireman nor any
 body else on board, and was going at the rate
 of 15 miles an hour. It came to a stand still
 by crashing into the caboose car of the local freight south, on the New London Northern railroad, which was standing on the main track, and thereby losing her pilot, head light and cylinders and bending up her driv- ing rods as though they had been wire, and forcing out the forward truck of the caboose and pushing it in telescoped position for thousand feet. About 500 people gathered in no time to see the spectacle of runaway locomotive and the damage it had done. An engineer boarded the engine and found that she had yet 20 pounds of steam. Soon dis patch for a special car and surgeons arrived, adding to the excitement. In @ short time special train had been got ready, surgeons had been hunted up, and the train started for the scene of the disaster The special train hRaRght back M. H. Spalding of Nor wich, left hand severely scalded; William A. Benchley of Willimantic, right hand and face badly burned; Mrs. Stephen Mccall, throat slightly burned by inhaling steam; Miss Kate Boyle of Norwich, face scalded; Mrs Susie Mitchell of New Bedford, badly scalded and injured internally; the Rev. Hugh Montgomery, slight flesh wound on the right leg and John F1aherty and wife of Jewett City, both of whom were hurt. Miss Wheeler, daughter of Charles Wheeler of Pal mertown, had both hands and her face scala ed. Fortunately the accident was no worse The damage to the engine and cars is about $2,OO0. The particulars of the collision were fully given yesterday.
 Mrs. Susie Mitchell, of New Bedfore, who was severely scalded and injured internally by the accident, was accompanied bya broth CT, whose dread of travelling for fear of acci- dents had caused her to delay her contempla- ted visit to friends in New London from time to time until Thursday, when, as though the Fates had ordained it, she was victim to disaster and her brother a witness They will not feel like travelling again soon.

The Jeanette and the HNOrtheast
Passage"

N. Y. Herald, Sd.
The leading English journal of sci
ence, Nature, in its current number,
editorially expresses the opinion that
fears for the safety of the American
arctic expedition are premature. "0n
the other side of the American CONT
nent,' it says" no news has been re-
ceived from the Jeanette" but it adds,
everything was in her favor when off
the coast OF Kamehatka last year, and
if she had a fair seaway there can be
no doubt the expedition would take
advantage Of it and push on as far
northward as was safe" This journal,
in its well considered article, sug ests
the probability that the Jeanette will
return next year by way of Nova
Zembla, with news of equal import
anee to that brought back by tie
Tegethotf years ago.
The same view Of the Arctic steam
er's probable route have been repeat
eddy advanced by the Herald as a
route offering the best facilities for
polar navigation and leading into the
richest Geld for polar exploration.
Should the Jeanette realize this ex-
pectatian she will be the first shin
which has achieved the ccle-
brated Northeast Passage back
ward, as also the first to
demonstrate the polar limits of the
polyDia off the Siberian coast, to the
thermal influence of which the great
Massage" owes its existence. His
torically the discovery of this route
round northern Asia took precedence
in the rivalry of maritime nations to
that Of the northwest passage, and
after the English, under Will
loughby. so disastrously failed
in 1853, William Barentz, the
first European to live out a dark
season in the Arctic region, thrice
made the unsuccessful attempt to pass
from the ATLANTIC to the Pacific, via
Nova Zembla. The desire to accom-
plish what Sir Hugh Willoughby and
Barentz in the sixteenth century SO
herOieally but in vain essayed.
has animated many explorers, as
1t did Nordenskjold, and doubt
less exerted q strong influence
on Captain De Long In selecting
the ultimate line Of the Jeanette s
advance. Now that, as Lieutenant
Schwatka has recently demonstrated,
the northwest passage is known to be
utterly worthless for navigation.
guarded by a chilly castle with its
countless bastions Of bristling berrs
and ~ceaseless curtains of eternal ice,
any light which the Jeannette's yoy-
age may shed upon the other great
maritime pathway across the Polar
basin will be hailed by all geograph-
ers.

Death OF Z Former Tennessean
at Little Rock.

Mr.. Billy Baugh, formerly Of Ten

a b%arkeeper for Angelo Marie, fell
from a third story windoW Of the
Capitol hotel in that city last Satur-
day morning, and was instantly killed.
He had been i'll from the effects Of
dissipation, but was thought to be
nearly we'll. The fall was evidently
an accident, and not intentional, as
the body vas found at daylight d.
rectly under tie window, and not two
feet from the wall. If he had jumped
he would have been found further
from the house. The Gazette Of yes
terday says that he was we'll liked by
the people Of Little Rock, and that
he has sisters living In Moscow, Tenn.

Near sunset Saturday evening, a
