DSrs,rr, September 3l.-The accident
ON the Great Western Railroad between
Aylmer and Orsville reported yesterday
appears to have been worse than ind:-
Gated by the first reports, and sItogeth-
or uuaceountable. Conductor Maxwell,
of the excursion train. hal orders TO
meet the freight train at Aylner, but
being twenty minutes ahead OF tlme'
Maxwell went on, intending to meet
the freight at Orsville. The engineer oil
the latter train saw the excursion train
approaching, Stacked of, blew his whis'
tie for several minutes, and had his train
almost at a stand still. The engineer OF
the excursion train kept running ahead,
regardless OF the freight which he
must have seen for more
than two miles, and never blew WINS
tie or gave the slis htest indication that
the road was not clear. He kept on at
full speed and collided with terrific force
with the freight. Five OF the ten eIcur-
sion eoaches were telescoped and four
occupants killed outright and Engineer
Wslmsley and his son, the fireman,
crushed beneath the engine. About
twenty were severely wounded and
great many slightly so. The dead, as far
as can be aseertained, are VIM. Coose
of Aylmer; Walmsley and son, OF 5.

as far as known are Mr.. Dennis and
wife, Of Bay City, Mich, badly hurt;
Elias Adams and wife. ot
Malahide; Z. P. Black, Vienna; young
lady from Bay City; Thos. Brown and
daughter, OF Malahide; Frank Morrison,
CLAYTON; Warnock and Glover Harrison,
of Aylmer. One car had not been
reached by the rescuing party at last
accounts, and fears are entertained that
more bodies are beneath the debris. The
bulk OF the passengers were fortunately
in the rear end of the excursion train,
otherwise the effect OF the collision
would have been much more serious.
The damage to the road is very heavy.

alongside the track. Conductor Max:
we'll takes all blame upon himself, and
cannot be found. The fact Of the engi-
neer driving straight on to his own and
others death, when the freight was
plainly seen for two miles, is wholly un-
explicable, and, as be is dead, must
probably forever remain unexplained.

New YokK, september 3O.-The fall
ures for nine months, ending Septem.
Der 30, 1881, are reported by Dun, WI
man & Co. as 3 $50 as compared with
3,436 for the corresponding period OF
1880. Liabilities for three quarters OF
the present year S50, ,000, 900 as compared
with S45,00O,000 for the same period in
1880 Failures during the last three
months are 1924, with liabilities OF $l0,-
100000, while in the third quarter OF
1880 there were 979, with liabilities
Sl2,000,OO0. A geographical distrihu-
ton OF failures shows thst
the Southern States have suffered
somewhat, inasmuch as the figures indi.
cate that the liabilities for the first three
months of 1880 were only $S48 600 as
against 81 ,05i 200 for the present quar-
ter. On the other hand, for the Wes.
tern States the liabilities show decline
of nearly So, 900 in favor OF this quarter.
In the Middle States the liabilities are
about 81 900 900 less in smount than in
the corresponding period OF 1890. In the
Eastern and Pacific States the liabilities
are but little different from those OF last
year. In Canada an exceptionally good
condition Of affairs has prevailed, the
failures for the last two months having
been but one hundred and thirty, with
liabilities of S7S7,0J0 This is better
showing than has been made in the
Dominion for any quarter during the
past six years

delegation OF the Stalwarts in Utica es-
corted the Senator from his carriage to
the train. Some local ,Stalwarts, includ

the same train with Jones. Ii was said
this morning on trustworthy authority
that the conference has been carried on
with great care, stenographer being
