ONCE MORE THE COACHmAN
Gathers in an HeIress for His Bride

eTatheFS ln an EAe1reSS Tor HIS Hf1des
 TROY, N. Y, Oct. 1.-The coachnan boom has struck Troy and William B. Bartholo- new, generally known as 'FBurt," has mar ried Miss Emma Babcock, the niece of Will liam J. Simmons, wealthy resident of this city. The marriage is still secret to Mir. Sim mons, who is out of town, and WAS not known to anyone except the interested parties until to-day. For years past MT. Simmons has treated his niece, who is an orphan, as 8 daughter and it was generally understood that she would inherit the bulk Of his prop erty. Bartholomew is a medium sized man, thirty years of age, and while not what is called handsome would pass for good looking when ''dressed up." He has dark eyes, a dark noustache and closely cropped hair He has been in the employ of Simmons four months and says he loved Miss Babcock before the Moro sini elopement, but did not tell her so until he had ventured one or two remarks in jest in regard to recent events. The encourage ment he received led him to declare his pas sion. It was reeiprocated and they were married by Rev. MT. Beederback, a German minister of this city, last Friday evening Miss Babcock is handsome brunette, six teen years of age. Now that the secret is out Bartholomew is afraid of the row that he says Simmons will make when he returns to Troy and the couple making arrangements to leave the city and will probably go to Peters burg from this city

SAVED FROM DEATH.
The Narrow Escape of Six BIen BI jed in a Broken Caisson.

The Narrow Escape of Six DIen Bur
 jed in a Broken Caisson.
 HAvRE DE GRACE, Md, Oct 1.-The outer shell or coffer dam of caisson No. 9, which is being sunk as Q foundation for one of the piers of the proposed new bridge of the Bal timore and Ohio railroad across the Susque- hanna river at this point, gave way at o'clock this morning, flooding the crib and air lock shaft and filling the work ing chamber rapidly. Most of the men got out safely before the accident occurred, but Patrick Kelly and five of his men named Mcguire, ShorddeI, Dillon, Welch and Con ner were imprisoned in the submarine cham Der. The caisson is larger than any of the others sunk for the bridge. It is sixty feet long and forty feet wide and at the time of the accident was sixty feet below the surface of the water. The entrance for the caisson proper is made through 8 perpendicular iron pipe which is divided into locks. The work ing chamber, which is brilliantly lighted with electricity, is reached through these locks, each lock being protected by a gate At the time of the accident the men were working in the chamber under a pressure of 280 pounds of air and when the locks flooded the only entrance or exit was cut oH The air apparatus, however, con- tinued to work, which was the only salvation and the men remained in that condition until rescued by the ingenious superintend- ent, John O'Brien, who conceived an Idea about II o'clock and quickly put it into practice. The outer lock was five feet under water and the lock next be- low, which was fifteen feet deep, was full of water. Mir. O'Brien made a false lock of boards and calked it, then bailed out the water descended and raised the flooded lock bailed that out and in company with John Burns descended through their rudely constructed pipe and rescued the six men who had for hours been in such peril ous situation. The rescued men were pale, haggard and muddy, but with the exception of one whose head was cut by falling spike were injured. This act of Messrs. O'Brien and Burns was loudly applauded and will not soon be forgotten as it required great nerve to car " it out successfully.

Louis.
 ST. LOUIS, Oct 1.-The model of an elec- tric elevated railroad run by new motor, invented by Dr. W. F. Adams, was put in working order at the Exposition building yes terday. The power is distributed from Q central station and runs along 0 wire laid under the car track, similar to the cable of a cable rod, and gripped in similar manner by wheeled grip, by which it communicates a current to revolving armature set between two magnets under the body of the car The armature is on a sleeve, which revolves and communicates motion to minor wheels inge- niously geared inside the truck wheels, which they in turn revolve check or reverse at the will of the conductor. The machine ap- pears to be a success. The length of the model road is 250 feet, and the car makes a complete circuit every twenty seconds. A fu11-sized car of twenty five horse power will shortly be set running in the machinery hall, and this winter it is intended to have built and in operation an elevated street railroad, the franchise for which is applied for.
