Collision i'm n Fog.


A fatal collision occurred early Monday
morning on the Mahanoy and Hazleton
branch of the Lehgh Valley Railrosd be-
tween an empty coal engine and passenger
train. The latter left Mahanoy City at 6:55
for Delano, and when near Shocmaker's col
liery, within a short distance of Mahanoy
City, running at the usual speed, met the
coal engine; which had just taken train of
empty cars in to the breaker, and was back
ing out on the main track. The morning
was densely foggy. The passenger engine
was pushing the coaches, SO that the engi-
ueer was unable to see the other engine.
The first warning the train hands had was
the terrible crash, the tank Of the engine
telescoping the first passenger coach. For
tunately there were only few passengers
in the car. Michael Reynolds, division
superintendent on that bronch, was instant
y killed, his body being literally mashed
to jelly. Reynolds was fifty years of age,
and lived in Mahanoy City, where he leaves
a wife and a large family. John Dicks,
front brakeman on the passenger train, was
fatally injury. lie was taken at once to his
home in Delano. Dieienderfer, the fireman
Of the coal engine, saved his life by jump
ing, and was only slightly injured. Charles
Morgan and William Davis, passengers
were pretty badly injured, the latter having
an arm broken in three places and several
ribs broken. The accidents attributed to 9

officials are making a thorough investiga-

Seventeen Children auraed.

An appalling catastrophe, resulting in the
death of seventeen children fourteen boys
and three girls-occurred Sunday night at
st. Patrick's Orphan Asylum,in Hyde Park,
Scranton. The building is situated at the
corner Of Jackson street and Lincoln avenue,
about mile from the centre of the city. It
is occupied by number of Sisters of Charity,
and under their charge were forty children,
whose ages ranged from to y years. The
boys and girls occupied separate dormtories
on the third floor.
At half-past s O'Clock Sunday evening one
of the Sisters escorted the children to their
rooms aud locked the doors for the night.
She then started to descend the stairs When
she reached the second story she discovered
smoke issuing from one of the rooms Open
ing the door she was driven back by a cloud
smoke. Fire was raging along the ceiling
and making its way to the upper floor. The
Sister darted up stairs and found the girls
room full of smoke. She took the girls to
the lower floor and star ed back to reach the
boys dormitory.
The smoke was pouring into the hallway
in binding clouds, andwhen about halfway
up the stairs the Sister met stranger. She
made an effort TO pass him, but he refused to
allow her to proceed, saying that the boys
had been rescued and that it would be dam
gerous for her to go tor them. She reluctant

the fire broke out brought four fire compan-
| les.
The flames were raging fiercely when the
iremen got to work. They We're informed
of the belief among the Sisters that some OF
the children were still in the building, and
made every effort 10 reach the upper floor.
In a short time the flames were beaten back.
The door of the dormitory was forced open
and the victims of the fire We're found be-
meath their cots. Only two Of them were
touched by the fire, and all had evidently
been dead for some time.
The fire was caused by defective hue. A
panic seems to have seized upon those in
charge, for some lime was allowed to eiapse
before an attempt was made to rescue the
children.
The building was not burned except par
TALLY in the rear. Thd Aue which caused tn,
fire was the kitchen chimney, in the secont
story, and the children who We're killed lay
in dormitory ever the kitchen aud anothe
adjoining it,
The Coroner Monday morning impan
elled a jury and viewed the bodies of th,
, seventeen dead children who were smother
ed or burned. They were identified by tw
Sisters of the burned asylum. Many O
them laid on the floor with blackened face
and burned wrists. The jury visited tn
