One Passenger and other Cars PTecipi-
tated down 20 foot Embankment.
BRATrLEBoRo, VT, Sept. %.

BRATTLEBoRo, VT, Sept, 20.
An accident on the Battleboro and White
hall railroad to the downward mixed train
this afternoon, just south of West River
bridge. West Dummerston, fatally injured
George f. Richmond of Jamaica, resulting
from fracture of the skull.
His wife and daughter were quite seriously
injured, the latter about the spine and hips.
Mrs. George Hastings and Miss Donelly of
Dummerston were badly bruised and received
internal injuries. James Underwood of
Newfane had his face bruised and Milan
Davidson received severe cash on the fore
head while some Is other passengers received
slight injuries.
The accident was caused by the front truck
of freight car leaving the track, dragging
with it four other cars, including one passen-
ger which were precipitated down a 20 foot
embankment.
Mr.. Richmond has since died. His wife,
daughter and wife's sister were most severely
injured and six others, but all will probably
recover. Other injuries in the car were only
slight
Richmond was thrown 20 feet through a
car window crushing his skull on rock.
Three physicians have been in attendance
and all injured are receiving the best medical
care.
Conductor Kimball and two other train men
when they saw that the car was going over
jumped in the opposite direction and escaped
with some bruises.
The accident happened on sharp curve
and sudden start of the engine after leaving
the bridge is thought to have derailed the
train.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
Robbers Discovered TunneIling into a
Bank Vault by the Cashier.

DENVER, Col, Sept. %.
Yesterday forenoon, the cashier of the First
National Bank at Los Vegos, n. NJ, became
convinced that robbers were tunneliing from
an adjoining building, to the vault in the
bank and guards were Immediately placed in
and around the bank. Those inside. dscov-
cred the masonry of the vault gradually sink
ing. At one o'clock, a Mexican volunteered
to go down cellar; he had taken but few
steps down the stairs, when he saw some one
coming up. The Mexican fired without
saying a word and the man fell dead The
watchmen began tearing up the floor of the
bank, with the intention of shooting the rob-
bers on sight This was found slow work,
the men fearing to get in the range of those
below, who, at times seemed to be rushing
from one point to another. The dead robber
has been recognized as on of the mssons who
built the vault. The excitement is intense.
The would be robbers escaped. A trip
through the tunnel shows a long and patient
work of the robbers, the tunnel being 60 feet
long, constructed on scientific principles and
containing provisions and water and full
outfit of mining tools. 1t must have been
three months in construction.

HEAVY LOSS OF LIFE.
An English Naval Vessel Sunk on the
Coast of Ireland-Fifty.Two Per.
sons Drowned.

LONDON, Sept. 23.
The British gunbost Wasp was wrecked of
Long Island on the northeast coast of Ireland
today. Fifty-two persons were drowned.
The Wasp had a registered tonnage of 465
tons, and carried guns.
Fifty-two men on board the Wasp were
drowned. Among the number all the officers
were included. Only six persons were saved.
On the rocky coast where the disaster oc-
CURED, it was impossible TO launch sail boats
and rescue the men.
The British man of war Valiant has gone
to Torrey. ireland, to render assistance and
obtain the details of the wreck of the Wasp.
The weather was hazy when the Wasp
struck. About A. NJ. the officer of the
watch ordered sail TO be set for the purpose
of steadying the boat, as a lumpy sea was on.
The orders were being carried out when the
Wasp, which, it is surmised, was greatly out
of her course, suddenly struck upon a rock.
The vessel rebounded into deep water, and
it was found that large hole had been stove
in the bow, and it would be impossible for
her to keep afoat. Six of the crew who
escaped did so by clinging to the wrecksge.
from which they were picked up by fishing
boats.
