A CARELESS OPERATOR
Causes two Trains to Collide, Injuring
Several Persons.

PROVIDENCE, II. l., Dec so.
This afternoon when freight train No. l02,
on the New York & New England Railway,
drawn by two engines, en- route from Will
fanatic to this city, was near Sterling, CT,
one of the engines. No. 16, dropped through
a wing, throwing the tender and five cars
from the track, and rolling down an embank-
ment were badly wrecked. The damage is
estimated at $1,000. The railroad officials
report that no persons were injured.
About 3. 80, this afternoon, as engine SO
with wrecking car and gang of men, en-
route for Sterling, were leaving this city over
the New York & New England Railroad,
a collision occurred east of Olneyville with
the regular inward Springfield freight, Both
engines were badly wrecked Several per-
sons were injured, as follows: NJ. c. Lin
coin, train dispatcher, fracture of the left
knee pan; Charles BRINE, engineer, right
arm broken; Sanford Rowland, wrecker
bruised aud cuts Edward Lamb, foreman of
the wreckers, both legs badly crushed; Lin
den White, car inspector, serious injury to
the hip Those injured were the employees
the n. Y. & n. +. X. X, Co. and the acct
dent was due to the neglect of the telegraph
operator, Ellenis, at Olneyville, who should
have held the Springfield freight until the
engine and wrecking train had passed. He
had been notified by the signals on passenger
train No. III that another train was to fol-
low and had the right of way.

Oscar wilde and the Banco steerers.

Capt. Williams, of New York, has verified
the story that Oscar Wilde was taken in"
by bsnco steerers. The captain says that
two weeks ago Oscar, while walking up
Broadway, near Union square, was accosted
by young man who introduced himself as
son of Drexel. the banker. As he had seen
the poet in his fathers office, he took the
liberty" etc. Mr.. Wilde was delighted. He
had been in the Drexel banking office, but
did not remember the young man. The two
went to a restaurant when MIR. Drexel" ate
as though hungry. Mr.. Wilde remembered
this, with grim smile later in the day when
informed by Capt Williams that Mr.. Drexel'
was Hungry Joe" noted banco steerer.
During the meal "Drexel' mentioned that he
had won lottery prize, and suggested that
the poet accompany him to get the money.
The old bait was swallowed, and Oscar
went to house in Fifteenth or Seventeeth
street. Several men were throwing dice.
''Drexel' threw for the poet and won quite
sum. Oscar was then persuaded 10 join. and,
of course, began to lose. First il was 500, then
500, until, becoming excited over the game,
he played until he lost in all $1,000. He slowly
signed a check on the Madison Square Bank
for the amount, realizing at last that he had
been swindled. He she ok off ''Drexel," who
insisted upon accompanying him, and rushing
to the street, hailed cab and was driven
rapidly TO the bank. The check was not
presented, but returned by mail to Captain
Williams. Oscar recognized ''Drexeis"
picture in the rogues' gallery. He is Joseph
Seilick, alias ''Hungrv Joe"

The appointment of two commissioners
in Vermont, to inquire into the condition
of the forests Of that State and to recon-
mend such measures as may be needed
for their protection, is a step in the right

there are thousands Of acres of poor land

Protecting Maine Game,

The annual report of the Maine fish and
game commissioners for 1882 deals severely
with poachers, and declare that the safety of
the last relics of the noble game and fish in
the Maine and of the forest and timber land
demands the speedy Suppression of this class
of marauders. The commission can recon-
mend only one remedy, namely, the
passage of a rigid law forbidding the
expectation of any game or game fish
from the State. The commissioners says ::
eve do not propose to allow the citizens of
other States to participate in reaping the crop
we have protected ami cultivated but demand
that 1t be consumed on our own soil"

An Interview With Ex-senator Spencer.

New YORK, Dec 81.
Ex-senator Spencer is at Kingstown, Ont.
and is about to leave for London, Eng. In
an interview Yesterday, he stated that he was
sub poenaed in an irregular way, in this city,
about the middle of June, 1892 and went to
Washington, and was lodged in room
alongside that of Mr.. Bliss, and in the same
room that he had repeatedly seen Mr.. Bliss;
that he met and had some conference with
a gentleman that was then and is now a
member of the Cabinet, and that, though
anxious to be called and get away from
Washington, he never was called, and was.
after many days, compelled to leave in order
to attend to his own concerns: that the gov
eminent has never been in ignorance of his
whereabouts, but has had him followed BY
detectives, and has never taken any proper
steps to secure his presence, either in the
usual way or by compulsion.
