Captain Webb's Exploit.

London, 29.-Professional swimmers
Of London have arranged a aesies OF per-
formsnces for the benefit of the widow of
Capt. Webb. The common people were
proud of Webb, particularly because of
his success in swimming across the chan.
mel. They have made many manifesta-
lions of grief over the loss of the man
whom they regarded as the finest devel-
opment of the English athlete. At Crys-
tai Palace, last night, there was 6 grand
exhibition Of fireworks. which had been
long in preparation. The whole audi
ence Kissed the fire picture of Niagara
falls, because it did not contain a por-
trait of Webb. Murphy, the Preston
butcher, who.hRs often challenged Webb,
who had always commended that Webb
would never succeed in bresstinp the
Niagara whirlpool, has also met with
death similar to that which overlook the
captain. Murphy on more than one &C.
cssion challenged Webb to dare with
him the terrib whirlpool. Murphy IN
dertook TO swim this fearful pool on the
very day Webb attempted Niagara. and
be was d1o wned.

Knowlesville, N. Y, 29.-The wreck
Of Friday night at CRrlydon is fully as
terrible IS at first reported. The wreck
was removed last evening. There has
been no more dead bodies found. One
lady who was injured, died to-day; her
name was Mrs. Lafevre. of Bay City,
Michigan. She was bsdly bruised, with
the left leg broked above the knee. Her
husband arrived just in time to be recog
nizad by her. The suffering OF those
Injured is great. All those who could be
were removed in sleepers, and the rest
were taken to neighboring houses and
cared for. The people are very kin I , and
everything possible is being done for the
sufferers. The throng visiting the scene
of the disaster was immense. II is esti-
mated that fully 5000 we're there to-day
some coming from distance Of twenty
miles. Many of them carried
away as relics pieces of wrecked cars.
Last evening the dead were placed 10
caskets, boxed and shipped TO their
homes. This afternoon the rsil road COM

experienced physician, at 1.-THE service OF

reversed the engine; the next thing he
knew he was in the ditch Albert Perry,
track walker, testified that he went over
the track shout half an hour before the
collision and everything wss all right,
and yet it seems from other testimony
that the freight car was blown 12S feet

THE STRIKE.

municGtion:
To the President of the United States:
At 8 meeting of the Washington as
sembly Of the Brotherhood of Telegraph
era and Knights Of Labor, held on the
evening of July 18th, it was resolved tn It
q committee of three be appointed to
wait upon your exoellency and make tie
following representations, which this
organization stands prepared to So bstsL-
tiate if given an opportunity to do so. It g
respectfully represented to the excel. i've
that SO 8 result of the obstinate attitude
assumed by the Western Union and the
Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Comps.
MES, in the matter OF the pending prac-
teal suspension Of telegraphic commuui-
cation, very important interests of
government are jeopsrdizsd. It is al
legged by this assembly that the tele-
graphic correspondence Of the state, war,
navy, interior, treasury and poytofice
departments, has for ten days LAST past
been subjected to delay and garbiinp
growing out of the inability Of the cor.
porslions above mentioned to properly
handle the dispatches OF the national
government. It is further alleged By this
assembly that the necessary facilities for
the prompt, intelligent transmission of
reports and bulletins Of the signal service
bureau are withheld by the Western
Union. By such Withholding it is be-
iieved by this assembly. that sgricul-
tural and mercantile industries, are
at present badly hampered and their
future seriously threatened. All this,
it is represented, is in direct
violation of United States statutes.
