Narrow Escape from "a Terrible Accident
ON the Erie Railroad.


ON the Erie Railroad.
New YORK, Sept. 10.-The Paterson train
on the Erie Railroad which left Jersey City at
800 o'clock last evening while waiting at the
eastern end of the tunnel was run into by
Greenwood Lake train. Frank Rae, the vete-
ran minstrel Of Ridgewood, his son John,
Lawyer Kerr OF Paterson, and his brother
George, Weiter Bell, Of the Adams Mills,
Paterson, and young man named Hopper
were all standing at the back end of the last
car of the Paterson train. They saw that
collision was inevitable and shouted to the
passengers to run to the forward end OF the
car. All escaped serious injuries except one
woman, Miss Jennie Stemble, who was after
wards removed to Jersey City hospital.
All the persons above named were hurt with
flying glass and splinters. The locomotive
ran into the car about 10 feet. 1t lost its
smokestack, headlight and cowcatcher. The
forward end of the car was crushed by its col
lision with the car in front. Steam and smoke
filed the car. The lights went out and great
excitement prevailed, for all thought at first
that they were in the tunnel. The men broke
open the windows and crawled out and then
helped out the women. All were greatly sur
prised that no one was killed and that SO few
were injured. A large number of passengers
are still suffering from the nervous shock they
received.

Bright Republican Prospects in Ohio.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.- Gov Foster of
Ohio is very enthusiastic as to the political sit
uation there. He is reported as saying that
the Republicans will regain nearly all the
power they lost on the liquor question at the
last election. He gave as reason for this as
sertion that the operation of the law increas-
ing the liquor tax had been such as to render it
popular with the moneyed liquor establish
ments. lie asserted that this is owing to the
fact that 1t had crushed out of existence over
three thousand small liquor dealers in Cincin-
natl alone, thus giving monopoly to the
wealthy establishments. He says that these
are In favor OF a still higher tax, and if the
Republicans are successful at the coming cleo

MAINE.


BANGOR, Sept 10.-R. A. Hatham, proprie-
tor of the Eagle House at Bar Harbor, started
to drive from this city to Ellsworth last FRI
day. He says that as he was driving through a
piece of woods about ten miles from this city
he noticed five or six men by the side of the
road. One of them with a club struck his
horse severe blow on the neck. The animal
jumped to the opposite side of the road when
the man seized him by the bits. Hatham had
a revolver which he drew and fred two shots
at random. This frightened the horse and
probably also scared the would be highway
robbers Mr.. Hstham escaped without injury.
The horse yet bears marks of the blow he re-
ceived ON the neck. Hatham thinks from
what conversation he heard that the men were
foreigners.
