Down an Emb snkment-A Train Turn
 ing a Curve Makes 8 Terrible Leap
 Fifty-three Passengers InJGred.
 CINCINNATI, March 30.-A terrible accident occurred early this morning on the Cincin- natl Southern railroad, five miles from Will liamstown, Ky. AS the train turned a curve the whole train of five coaches was thrown from the track by broken rail and went down the embankment with 127 passengers on board. Of these 53 were injured but none killed. The entire train with the exception of the engine was thrown down the embankment and the walls of anguish from the heap of humanity were pitiable in the extreme. Dis patches were sent to Williamstown and all omnibus and several furniture cars conveyed the wounded to that town, and after their wounds were dressed the most of them were placed upon a train and sent to Cincinnati The train arrived in this city at 2:30 this af- ternoon with the wounded, many of whom were taken to the hospital Quite 8 number are residents of this city As soon as the re- port of the accident reached this city, which for some reason was late in the day, several Ol1claIS Oi LA0 rOdu OophI tSu at Ouco 1OE IAS scene of the wreck. Captain A. McDowell, a lumber merchant, occupied seat in the third car and states that the train was going at the rate of forty miles an hour around a sharp curve The second car was completely burned. Captain Mcdowell was bruised about the back and head and cut on the fore head. He is at the hospital, but is very anx- ious to get home. He is scarcely able to converse but states that he knew nobody on the train. J. II. Brown, land agent of the road, was in the ladies' coach and escaped with slight bruises. The coach was hur led down the embankment on the opposite side from that down which the smoker was precipitated and soon caught fire and was completely consumed. The windows had to be broken in and the ladies taken out, many of whom were bruised and burned. A great many had their arms and legs broken and re- ceived internal injuries. The following who are at the Good Samaritan hospital in this city, are the only ones of the injured whose names can be given Alfred Harris, Almony, Indiana, head and face injured Daniel Hal lapl, St Paris, Ohio, face and knee cut :; Lotta Thompsop,s Saratoga, N. Y., slightly injured about the body; James H. Carrick, Wilster county, Missouri, serious scalp wound; Thomas Allen, Augusta, Ky, leg broken and shoulder injured, A lady says Mr. Catlin, of St. Louis, was one of the worst injured of the passengers and she thinks he will die.

The Search in the Diamond Mine.


 BRAIDwooD, March 30.-The exploring started out into the southwest entry and reached the face some 750 yards from the main shaft. It was only after great efforts that they surmounted the huge barriers of soapstone. At one point they found some bodies very badly covered with stone. They succeeded in counting thirteen legs of vic- tins and suppose from that there are seven of them there. The heads and trunks are almost entirely covered with stone. Three of them were identified by their clothing as being John Rogers, Ramsey and Andrew Fulton. It is said that they are in much worse condition than those already taken out. They will hardly be taken out before Sunday. The bodies will probably be taken out in sacks as that is the only way in which they can be handled.

The exercises consisted of readings, rec itations declamations and dialogue entitled "A drop too much" Those who took part in the dialogue were Masters Daniel Green, Jo- seph McGainty, Frank McGainty, Edward Hoadley, Misses Clara HoadIey and Hattie Holcomb. The singing was very fine, espe- cially Miss Clara Kenyon, whose singing took the audience by storm. Those to be special ly commended on the rendering of their va rious pieces were Misses Lottie Ely. Mabel Goodrich, Bridget Daly, Clara Kenyon, Mas ters Irving Underwood, Allie Kenyon and Frank Quinn. The manner in which the scholars acquitted themselves of their duties shows the rapid progress of the school and does much credit to the teacher, Miss Hattie Ely.

 The Anarchists Growing RestIess-A Re-
 volt Imminent as q Result of Louise
 MichePs Arrest.
 PARIS, March 30.-The greatest excitement prevails among the members of the revolu- tionary factions in consequence of the arrest of Louise Michel immediately after her visit to the prefecture of police to-day. The in- tense yet silent activity of the most promi- nent socialist and anarchist leaders points clearly to the imminence of revolutionary movement of some character. No less than eleven revolutionary meetings were held to- night mainly in those quarters of the city chiefly inhabited by workingmen, and all were very largely attended. The language used by some of the speakers was violent in the extreme. At the Belleville meeting one orator declared that five thou sand men were provided with arms ready to rise in insurrection at 8 moments warning. An officer of the secret police who. was present at the meeting dis euised as 8 workingmsn attempted to arrest the rash speaker, but in the scufie that en sued the latter was hustled away by his friends and made his escape, while the mouchard was rather roughly handled. The fever of anarchy is increasing in pulse and temperature. The situation is exactly like that which preceded the fall of the empire and M. Jules Ferry, who has conquered a | bubble of the insurrection in the suppression of the recent attempted demonstrations, has not been able to lessen the black distress which has raised the cry for bread. It is l feared that the revolutionists will make B serious demonstration on Sunday and the government is taking precautions to repress | the disorders likely to arise. The belief is entertained in high quarters that the action of Louise Michel in presenting herself to the prefecture, inviting her arrest and practically compelling it was merely part of 8 prear- ranged plan to excite the revolutionists to l fury and precipitate the outbreak of the in- I surrection, which, judging from the present | outlook, cannot be delayed.
