THE MORELOS ACCIDENT.
Two Hundred People Killed and Fifty
Injured.


MEXICO, June N.-Particulars Of the acct
dent on the Morelos railway have been re-
ceived. Recent heavy rains caused freshets
which had undermined the supports to the
bridge over the San Antonio river near Mail
pois. When train carrying soldiers attempt
ed to cross the structure gave way and the en-
tire train was precipitated down steep en-
bankment Part of the train consisted of
freight cars loaded with alcohol. This set fire
to the entire mass of wreckage and everything
was burned One hundred and ninety-two
privates and thirteen officers are known to
have been killed outright or slowly roasted to
death. Fifty other persons were either fatally
or seriously injured. The bridge was known
to be unsafe, but was nevertheless continued
in use. The road is narrow gauge, was built
entirely by Mexican capitalists, and was first
opened tosthe public on the 18th instant.
When information of the calamity reached
this city the excitement was unbounded and
crowds thronged all the news centres anxious
ly awaiting particulars. Never in the history
of the Republic has SO frightful a casualty
been chroniced, and its occurrence, it is feared,
may still further prejudice popular minds
against railway enterprise. However 'Los
Gringos," as the natives terms all outside bar
barians, can come in for no share of blame in
this connection. The Morelos road is a narrow
gauge line, built by Government subventton,
and is entirely the work of Mexican engineers.
1t was first opened to the public on the 18th
inst. In addition to loss of life already report
ed it appears that the engineer and fireman
were Scalded to death.
CITY OF MEXICO, June 27-The latest &C.
counts of the disaster on the Morelos Railroad
report II officers and 1877 privates killed, not
including railroad officials and employees or
women and children of soldiers, many of
whom were on the train. Only 60 persons in
all were saved alive, and of these 40 were
more or less injured. The disaster occurred at
II o'clock Friday night as the train, which was
long one and drawn by two engines, was
passing over wooden bridge. For a moment
after the plunge of the cars from the bridge
all was darkness. Suddenly 100 barrels OF
and the burning fluid inundated the mass OF
passengers struggling in the ruins, only few Of
whom were not disabled or hopelessly wedged
in the timbers. escaped. The dead and living
were wrapped in sheet of flames and slowly
burned before the eyes of the survivors.

PROGRESS OF THE REACTIONARY
MOVEMENT IN RUSSIA.

A Notable Demonstration at Versailles.
PARIS, June 26.-Sunday afternoon Yer
sailles was startled by the arrival of deputa-
ton of Irish and Irish Americans who had
come down from Paris to do honor to the men,
ory of Gen. Hoche and to make an anti-En-
glish manifestation Among the number
were James Stephens, Patrick Eagan OF the
Land League, Gen. McAdams and Rev. Mr..
Pepper of Ohio. After depositing wreaths at
the foot of Gen. Hoches statue, purporting to
be the tribute of grateful ireland, and after
listening to stirring poetic denunclatlon OF
poet, M. Robert, the deputation withdrew,
leavngIthe guardian of the place and French
bystanders plunged in astonishment. Later on
at banquet given, Mr.. Casey in the chair,
patriotic speeches of the fiercest description
were delivered by Pepper, Davis, Eagan and
Gen. McAdams. Mr.. Stephens, who is still
ailing, eaid only few words of non-political
nature In replying to the toast OF The
Irish at home and Abroad MIR. Eagan said,
"To-day we are fighting against landlords; to-
morrow we may be fighting for indepen-
dence."
A Reactionary Policy at st. Petersburg.
LONDON, June 27.-The correspondent Of
tie Times at St. Petersburg writes as follows:
"The endeavor of the present government is
to show that the mild policy of the late gov
eminent was an eminently dangerous one.
The police are now engaged in bringing to
light the danger which accumulated during
Melikoff's rule. The Reactionists are making
the most of the discovery of dynamite mines,
etc., in order to frighten the court and secure
their own position. Some suspicion seems to
have been excited by the visit of Melikoff to
Geneva. 1t is reported that police and spies
have been detailed to watch him. The st.
Petersburg newspaper press is hated at court
because not single independent organ favors
the present governments desires. Severe PEN
alties were lately imposed upon three or four
journals, and several editors received circu-
lar ordering them to submit the first proofs OF
their papers to the press censors before
o'clock in the morning."

THE COMET.

Observations at the Dartmouth Observa-
tory.
HANOVER, N. H., June 27-Observations at
Dartmouth observatory last night showed that
the comet was moving to point approximate
ing five degrees from the pole star, its motion
being about three degrees day. At its lower
elimination it was approximating ten degrees
from the horizon. AS seen through a nine
inch glass the comet was very clearly defined,
being circular and fading away perceptbly.
The comet itself passed over and nearly con-
cealed an eighth magnitude star, making a
beautiful sight. The form of the comet could
be very clearly seen with a two or three inch
objective. The comet is less than minute of
an arc in width and about minute and a
half in length.
ALBANY, June 27.-From Dudley observa-
tory this morning at 130 o'clock the sight pre-
sented by the comet is said to have been one
never to be forgotten. The comet stretched
out across the heavens nearly forty degrees and
the tail spread out into two we'll defined
branches, enveloping the north star in a flood
of milky light. The diameter of the nucleus
is decreasing in rather an unexpected fashion,
and this morning LESS brilliancy is to be seen
in its course than was observed here Saturday
morning. Prof. Bass states positively that
this comet is the same as that seen from South
America June LIST by DR.. Gould He is salts
fed it is neither the comet of 1907 nor of 1872.
They See Two at Chicago.
CHICAGO, June 27.-At 925 p. m. the comet
is visible to the naked eye. 1t is about 800
above the horizon in northwest by north. The
tail is long, strongly defined and straight as
ray of electric light. There is no resemblance
between this comet and the one visible here
between 2 and o'clock q. m. The latter is the
shorter and more brilliant of the two.

Mr.. Hayes moved an adjournment, which

The New York Posts Albany despatch says
it seems to be the general impression that an
election of Senators will take place this week.
The State Senators and members of the As
sembly as they return are more inclined than
heretofore to talk of combinations to end the
struggle and adjourn.
No new developments in the Senatorial dead
lock tonight. Conkling, Platt and number
of friends arrived ON the 10 train and imme-

The Bribery Cases.
The grand jury came in to-day with twelve

in Indictment at present as at any other time
for disclosing the names of the indicted.

TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE as.

found that her patronage was by no means So
hcited,-wa not even wished, unless she was
exactly the right sort of woman and precisely
met some four or five conditions. In few
moments she began to burn with desire to en-
ter the enclosure thus jealousy guarded; and
If she succeeded-as she generally did in the
end-in persuading the person in charge to
take her little all, she departed with sense of
deep gratitude that she had been permitted to
become depositor. The same idea, a little
varied, was beautifully carried out in the re-
quest, delicately but firmly made in almost
every case, that the customer would not gossip
about the Ladies' Deposit If, indeed, she had
particular female friend, who was excessive
ly worthy and greatly in need. and who hap
pened to have two hundred dollars or more,
such friend might, as favor, be very quietly
informed of the privileges of the establishment;
but there was to be no babbling into the worlds

sis. All this showed a fine knowledge of hu-
man nature, and in practice worked charming
ly; the method resembling that often used in
selling tickets to charity ball, where it is
mysteriously whispered to a few that the COM
pany will be Uery select, and admissions uery
hard to procure.
