an HOuy-SeriOus Loss Of Life
The Statement of One Of the Injured.
BRoADFORD, July John Collins,
passenger who was on the runaway
train on the Dorchester & Pittsburg
railroad which met with such a fright
full accident at Rasseflas, yesterday
morning, says that no one understood
what was the trouble until after the
collision occurred. The speed of the
train, Just before the collision was
something fearful. Persons asleep
were awakened, involuntarily rose to
their feet, and stood in a daZed cOndi-
ton grasping the seats in front of them
when the shock came. Collins says
he was nearly in the rear of the car
and was pitched clear to the front
He was badly hut obout the head.
He says
THE SCENE
was indescribable. Those who escaped
without serious injury were prompt in
rendering aid to those less fortunate.
Mr.. Collins thinks brakeman on the
runaway section of the train was
asleep when the accident happened,
and that no attempt was made to set
the brakes. 1t appears that the acct
dent happened as follows: a coal
train with a passenger car attached
was going up a steep grade near Ras-
sellas, few miles south of Kinsena
viaduct. The severed section, consist
ing of loaded coal cars and passenger
coach, Immediately started down the
steep grade, and while going at the
frightful speed of
EIGHTY MILES AN HOUR
collided with an engine of an approach
ing coal train. The passenger car was
well filled and the destruction of life
and limb was appalling. A relief train
with three surgeons and number of
the employees of the company OH board
was dispatched to the scene at 5
O'Clock; the killed and hurt were
brought to this city. P. Downs, the
engineer of the second train, was the
only one hurt in his crew. He saw
the second section approaching, and
after reversing his engine jumped and
escaped with slight bruises.
THE CORONER'S INVESTIGATION.
Coroner Bannan empaneled jury
who visited the scene of the wreck by
a special train and will take testimony
and render a verdict to-day. Mrs.
McCurdy, who was only slightly in
jured, has made statement, in which
she says that the conductor and both
the brakemen who were in the car
with her, were asleep. 1t is not
known to whom the blame is most to
be attached.

II Mr.. Malone were directly charged
with being q Republican, RI would in
dignantly deny the accusation. Neither
Malone nor any one of his Democratic
recruits will confess to Republicanisnl.
He and they still claim to be Democrat
and affect resentment of any imputa-
ton against their Democracy. But Mr..
Malone is either a Republican outright
or he is something that ought to be far
more Objectionable to the Democrats
mind than any decent member of the
Republican party. He is either cow
ar1ly Republican who dares not own his
party name, or heis . renegade Demo-
crat selling his influence to the Repub-
lican party. If he does not hold the
opinions Of the Republican party he is
like the Hessian ruler who sold
battalions to the British hundred wears
ago. If he does hold those opinions, he
is pitiful specimen of abject moral
cowardice, afraid or ashamed to be
known for what he is. Taking either
horn of the dilemma, reckoning Malone
as a trading Hessian or q Republican
coward, and we have such q leader as
Democrats can not follow in the pro-
gramme laid out for the campaign of
1884. That programme is the ANAL
gamAtion of the Readjusters with the
National Republican party. There is
no longer any disguise. The local ques-
ton that divided the Virginia Demo-
Gratis is settled and put out of the
way forever. Those Democrats who, in
future, adhere to Malone and his fail
ing fortunes, win Do so with the full un-
Outstanding that he regards them as the
Hessian contingent which he is to barter
for patronage. While he processes to
hold aloof from the Republican organi-
cation, he does SO because his position
gives him greater Importance; because
he, with the balance of power in his
hands and with promises Of great things
in 1884, can command much better
terms than he could as regular men,
Der Of the grand old party" 1t is q
good time now, while there is no intense
political excitement, for Democrats who
have been with Malone on the debt
question, to calmly consider whether
they can march with him into the Re-
publican campaign of 1884 as part of
his stock in trade. If any of those
Democrats have become converted to
the Republican creed they will not be
true Virginians if they are not brave
enough to take their black Republican
brethren by the hand and fully, openly,
boldly avow their change of faith. The
Old Dominion has never vet been so de-
graded as to have her Presidential vote
sold, but such sale is contemplated by

Democratic Leadership In the Next
Congress.

Much has been said of the unoroarl-
lied and untutored party majority with
which the Democrats win resume con-
troll OF the House, and their opponents
have been calculating on making great
Roadway in the Presidential campaign
OF 1884 by reason of the mistakes and
blunders which the Democratic MAORI
ty is expected to commit. But while It
Is quite true that there will be MANY
new and inexperienced men on the
Democratic side, and not a few cranks
whom 1t will be somewhat difficult to
manage, an inspection of the list of
members shows conclusively that the
Democrats will be much better pro-
vided with experienced members cana
BILE OF leadership than the Republicans.
AS to the Senate, the Republicans are
not near so well off in this respect as
they have been for many years. In
deed, it was remarked during all of the
last session, by close observers, that
there was no leadership on the Repub.
lican side. This was apparent only to
close observers, because no sharply de-
fined political issues arose during the
session. There are plenty of men on
the Republican side of great ability,
ready debaters and ali that kind of
thing, but that audacious and triumph
ant aggressiveness which never hesi-
tated nor scrupled to strike any and all
obstacles from its path. in the days of
Morton, Conkling, and Carpenter, has

cratic side OF the Senate has borrowed
