Richmond, VA, Dec. 27.-Within
the past 48 hours, four tramps have
been found in dying condition from
being suffocated by gas at a lime
kiln in the lower part of the city,
where such characters are in the
habit of spending their nights, de-
spite all efforts to keep them away.
Two of these have died.
During an alteration last Friday

attempted to assault Wimbish with a
hoe, when the latter dealt him blow
on the neck with the axe, almost sew

body. The negro died in about ten
minutes.

tinued for seventy-two hours, with
scarcely any cessation. The roads
all about the country are blockaded

the depth of twenty inches, and
drifted as high as ten feet. The
bluff is badly cut away, carrying with
1t summer houses and costly bulk

FRIGHTFUL RAILROAD DIS
ASTER.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Dec. 27.-In-
telligence of another frightful rail
road disaster reached the city this
morning about s o'clock. It occur
red on the Air Line railroad, 500
wards beyond Paw creek trestle, nine
miles from this city. About z
o'clock two freight trains of usual
size, left Charlotte yesterday morn
ing in sections, one about fifteen
minutes behind the other. On up
grade, just beyond Paw creek
frestle, fourteen cars of the
forward train, engineer Anthony,
broke loose and stopped, after
running short distance. In the
rear car were Flagman Bob Griffith,
of this city, and six passengers,
three of whom were colored. When
the detached &rs stopped Flagman
Griffith jumped off and having told
the brakemen to notify the passen-
gers that they had broken loose from
the remainder of the train, imme-
diately started back to signal the
second section, which he knew must
be only few miles behind. He had
not gone back far before he heard
the approaching train blow and then
realized the fact that he could
proceed no further, because of the
trustle, which is $50 yards long and
very high. He waved the flag as
the engine in charge of the engineer
Wisenberry, came in sight, and he
engineer expressed his recognition
of it by Immediately blowing on
breaks, but his train was heavy and
he was nearing the bottom of one OF
the biggest grades on the road.
hence it was impossible to stop. AS
soon as he realized this fact, and be-
fore crossing the trestle, he reversed
his gine and continued to blow on
brakes. Realizing the catastrophe.
he left his seat, and standing in front
of the fire box with his hand on the
lever, awaited the shock. It came
and he was partially knocked down
by stick of wood from the tender
but was otherwise unhurt, yet almost
entirely shut in by the mass of debris
which was thrown against the en-,
gine. His life was probably saved
by the fact that the rear of the ten
der was thrown to one side, thus
diVerting the fall and momentum O.
the train from the engine to the side
of the cut, against which the shat
tered cars were piled up. All the
passengers in the cab of the forward
section were either killed or serious
ly injured. Thomas A. Gather, O
this city, escaped with broken ribs
but Philip S. Whisnant, alst
of this city; Charley Sellers, OF Pin
hook, and negro named Ned Strand
were instantly killed. The wrec]
caught fire and was burned up, an(
at least one man was burned alive
as his cries could be heard, but moth
ing could be done for him. Mr.
Gather was the sole survivor of th
passengers in the cab. Alarge force
OF men are now engaged in moving
the wreck and building O tracl
around it.
