Collisions fn the Afr-Tratns Crashing
 Together in a Fog.
 NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-Two accidents of serious nature occurred this morning on the elevated railroad in this city At 7:25 a. m. a collision occurred on the Second avenue elevated between Ninety first and Ninety-sec- ond streets, which came near resulting in dreadful loss of life. One of the engineers named Edward Cooper was almost instantly killed. To the fog which prevailed this morning the accident is attributed. It ap- pears that three southern bound trains had stopped on the north side of the Eighty sixth street station for the purpose of taking the switch, which, however, could not be done until the train north, and which was behind time, had passed the stat ion. En gineer Edward Cooper came alongside with his train of two cars at the usual rate of speed, and the first intimation that the doomed man had of the fate awaiting him was when his engine crashed into the train ahead of him. Cooper's engine was broken in two and the cars of the train he ran into were more or less damaged. Cooper was terribly scalded by escaping steam and fell from the wrecked engine to the street below and died in 8 few minutes. His fireman escaped The passen- gers who were on the cars had miraculous escape; they had all fortunately crowded for ward when the rumbling of the wheels was heard. The road was blocked for several hours.
 An accident on the Third avenue elevated railroad at a. m. resulted in considerable damage to engine and cars, but no lives were lost. This is also attributed to the fog of this morning.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL.

An Americans Murder Avenged.
 WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-The Department of State is in receipt of telegraphic despatch from MT. Heap, the United States c7tarye q Gfaires at Constantinople, announcing that the murderers of MT. Parsons the American missionary who was recently killed and rob bed under circumstances of great atrocity at Isnaid, have been tried by the court at Con stantinople and convicted. The principal, a Turk named Ali, has been sentenced to death by hanging and his two aceomplices to i'm prisonment at hard labor for fifteen years The department has from the outset pressed the matter with all urgency to the extent of ordering one of our naval vessels to Con- stantinople, and in addition to the imperative demands made through Mir. Heap for e-em- plary justice in the case it has authorized his personal attendance at the trial and the em- ployment of able counsel to assist in the prosecution of the murderers. Their prompt conviction and sentences are doubtless due to the activity of the measures taken by this government. The result is in great meas ure exceptional, as the utmost difficulty is always experienced in Turkey in overcoming Mohammedan aversion to punishing the sub- jects of the Porte for injuries to foreign Christians. The murder of the military at tache of the Russian legation at Constantino- pie some months ago still remains unpun- ished, notwithstanding the demands of the Russian government.

Victims of the Railroad Horror-The List
 Rapidly Swelling.
 PITTsBURG, Oct. 1.-The excitement in re- gard to the Pennsylvania railroad accident is increasing. In the hospital where the tor tured victims lie in their indeseribable agony, the death roll has been growing rapidly. Up to o'clock this afternoon two more of the sufferers, George Cummins and Maggie Mo Namara, had died and another was on the verge of death All day the coroner's office was crowded and the undertaking rooms sur rounded by curious throng. As fast as the bodies were brought in they were prepared for burial. The official investigation by Superintendent Pitcairn was begun this morning William Lenhardt, who was re- ported dead, is still alive and may recover His leg has been amputated. The other leg is fractured and it is feared that he has re- ceived internal injuries. The death list will probably be largely increased as nearly all the passengers who inhaled the steam will die. It is feared that the list will ultimately number forty.
 The coroner's investigation as to the cause of the accident was begun this afternoon in the court house. Conductor Hoey of the first section, conductor Lowe of the second section and one or two passengers were ex- amined. Hoey testified that he did not see the red light on the rear of section one and did not see the train ahead until he was close on it. The evidence of Hoey threw no light on the subject. Conductor Lowe, however, testified that when he got to his engine after it had plunged into the car ahead he saw the hagman of section number one there and said to him, '' My God, Billy, what are you doing here? The reply was C did not know you were coming" This shows that the hagman did not do his duty and is re- sponsible for the accident.

NEW YORK Oct. Il.
 The order of the United States Circuit Court against John I. Davenport, chief super visor of elections, to show cause why he should not be removed from office, was ar gued to-day. Judge Blatchford rendered his decision that the action was not well taken and dismissed the order to show cause why Davenport should not be removed. The court ruled that as the action of Davenport was submitted to the United States court. the judge and district attorney, it was evidence of his good faith, and while the language of the circular instructions should be modified it's oripinal intent was good.

The importance of the nervous system, its power nfe and the direct bearing which it has hu- happiness thoroughly recognized it's uses and the danger of oyertaxng it, whether through intense mental application, by the excessive indulgence of the appettes and ropenstes proper subjects for consideration. When the nervous system is deranged it is absolutely necessary promptly seek advice from expert who for long series Of years has devoted his whole time and attention to this study and who from his experience and practice has learned to dis cover at once the cause and as promptly apply the remedy, thus avoiding the painfully slow seeking for the truth so common to the inexperienced and so an moving to the patient, who, naturally, wants to without delay what is the natter the extent of the dsrangement, the probabilities of recuperation and the time required.
 If the brain has become exhausted by intense men tai application deprivng it of the power of connected thought, it only recover it's strength by being properly fed and nourshed by the of certain sys tematic methods. It is precisely the same with the nerves that preside over organic life. The value of this branch of medical practice can scarcely be oYe rated for it reaches marriage the perpetuation of family names the securing of hereditary titles, and the retention of estates in the family.
 From long and large experience in this direction, have been able to command by my success the thank full appreciation of of the first families in the City and Nation; and can communicate much that pertains to the of every department of the nervous system and the of recovering its powers, whether of brain, appetite, propensity, passion.

AN ELoPEMENT THAT BROUGHT ABOUT
FREE FIGHT AT GALEsBURG, ILL
NoIs.
GALEsBURG, ILL.,, Sept. 20.-A dis
patch from this place last week an
nounced the elopement of Miss Nettie
Chase, refined and educated young
lady, daughter of the late Rev. DIR.
Chase of the Episcopal Church, with
Sam Monroe, colored, her mothers
coachman. They were married at the
house of negro named Payne, ten
miles from here but the same day
Monroe was arrested on the charge of
larceny for carrying off a satchel OF
clothing belonging to the young lady.
He was placed in Jail, where he re-
NAMED until Saturday, when he was
released ON $500 bail. He had no OPP
portunlty of seeing his wife since their
marriage as she was spirited away to
relatives at Kenosha. Another stalt-
ling act connected with the affair took
place this MOI ming at the depot here.
Miss Chase, accompanied by her two
brothers aud her brother in-law, Rev.
G. Ii. Higgins, were aboard the seven
o'clock passenger train for Peoria,
where Hon. Horace Chase, one of her
brothers, resides. Miss Chase had
scarcely been seated in the car when, to
the surprise of all, her cOlored hus-
band appeared and insisted on seeing
his wife.
An tercation at once took pace be-
tween him and the young lady's re!a-
tives, during which blows were exchang
ed. Horace Chase drew revolver and
shot at the retreaiing negro. The ball
missed its mark and struck George
Crocker, \ well-knOwn merchant, IN the
shoulder. His wound is not Serious
This brought together great crowd, land
rough and tumble fight took place
npon the platform, in which Monroe the
Chase brothers and policemen were par
Elephants. Monroe escaped unframed
| Horace Chase was taken before the Pc.
lice Count, and gave bonds for his ap
pearance next Tuesday. Monroe wal
discharged, no one appearing agains
him. Miss Chase and relatives went Il
Peoria OIL the next train.
Excitement rams high and IL IS diff
cult TO see what course affairs ma,
take. No one appears to know the sen
timents of the young lady about the al
fair, but her friends claim she was on
of her mind when she married the ne
gro. Sam says he is bound to have hi
wife.

PORT.
The world will soon know whether
Miss Anna Dickinson's new play is the
long expected American drama. A
Herald reporter called on Miss Daven-
port on Saturday to learn some par
ticulars about tie nsw piece. Miss
Davenport said that it had been agreed
between herself and Miss Dickinson
that it would be better to say nothing
of the plot of the play in advance, and
that everything had better come fresh
upon the public on the night of its
first representation.
"Will you tell me then," asked the
reporter, chow you succeeded In get
ting play from Miss Dickinson when
so many failedp"
IL do not know how it was done I'M

verance," replied the actress. 81 have
