THE P0wHATAN.
Captain Beardslee, commanding the u. 2. g
Powhatan, has sent TO the Navy department
from Key West, November 25th, . report OF
the board Of officers who Investigated the case
of the men abandoned on Roncader island, who
were rescued by the Powhatan. A copy OF The
report has been submitted to the State depart
ment. The names of the abandoned men arc
Anthony Repp, q native OF Alsace; Henry Van
Well, q German. and Bartholomew Won Schen-
del, q Dutchman. Their story, as carefully
Investigated by the board of officers does not
differ materially from that originally published.
They contracted with a firm TO collect guanO
on Roncader island, and went out with
Capt Gennett, the superintendent of the COM
pany, in May, 1884. Capt. 9ennett LEFT the
island in December TO charter vessels TO remove
the guano, and returned with three vessels
which were loaded and departed. The men re-
manned on the island, until rescued by the Pow
hatan, without receiving any word from their
employers. They think they have just claim
for wages and damages. They had perfect con-
hdence in Capt. Gennett, and think he must
have been foully dealt with. The men are In
good physical condition. They desire for the
present to remain on the Powhatan, on account
OF their destitute condition, and are retained
supernumeraries. The Powhatan would re-
main at Key West for couple OF weeks for 10
pairs.

A Passenger Train Thrown From the
Track-A Man Killed and Two Cars
Burncd-Apparently the Work OF
Train WreckerA.

WELLSvILLE, n. Y, Dec. 3.-Train 4, the ST.
Louis limited express, on the Erie road bound
east. was wrecked at Scio about 1920 this
morning. Henry Allen, the engineer, was
killed. The passengers were more or less shaken
up, but none We're hurt seriously. The train
took fire and the baggage and smoking cas-
were burned. The accident was caused by q
misplaced switch.
BUFFALO, n: Y, Dec. 3.--A special from
express, jumped the track here at 1870 O'Clock
this morning. The train was running very
fast, not stopping at Scio. A freight train had
left at II O'Clock, and it is thought that the
switch was misplaced. The engine is on its side.
Engineer Henry w. Allen was killed, but his
fireman escaped with few slight bruises
After the accident the cars caught fire and the
baggage car was burned. The smoking car
was also partially consumed, but by the heroic
action of the citizens the rest Of the train was
saved. Scio has no fire department, and all
the work was done by q bucket brigade. One
of the citizens, while at work subduing the
flames, was seriously injured by the explosion
OF some railroad torpedOes. None of the pas
sengers on the train were injured.
ELMIRA, n. Y, Dec. 3.-A passenger on the
Erie train, No. 4, which jumped the track at
Scio this morning, says: The accident is gener-
ally laid to q misplaced switch. There is some
thing mysterious about il, however. The switch
was found locked and all right, and plank was
found which indicated that 1t had been placed
there for foul purposes.
PROBABLY THE WORK OF TRAIN wRECKERS.
Regarding the accident at Scio, O special
states that Il Ia believed that the mfsplacing Of
the switch was done maliciously. The sleeping
car burned was the Plato.

LONDON, Dec. 3.-The liberals have not placed
their hopes on the counties in vain. London

are liberal. In the south and east the liberals
made gains yesterday. The counties returned
thirtyfour liberals TO sixteen tories, with a ma.
jority OF 10000 liberal votes. Among the Dor
oughs, Manchester is called the great apostate
The greatest indignation is felt at the five can
didates who, by refusing to accept arbitration
with their rivals, lost the liberal seats. A black
list of them is printed i'm the papers and posted
at the clubs, from which there is talk OF ex
Polling them. In the boroughs up TO the pres
ent S2O,636 liberals and .SS.522 conservatives
have voted. Though a large majority of the
conservative members have been elected In
Ireland, Parnell is gaining greatly. There arc
still 1872 elections TO come of, of which Parnel
will get 40. a liberal majority over the torie,
and Irish seems beyond hope. but the compare

strengthens Parnell. The liberals have been
much cheered by the last two days results
