sion was caused by Cornelius Boyle, miner
laborer, who stepped into worked-out

lighted lamp upon his hat. BOYLE will die
Many mules were killed or wounded. and

were frightened by an elevated train, and
stampeded. There were forty steers in the
herd. The herd started in q mad gallop
through the streets, despite all efforts to
STOP them. Most OF them were captured
before they went very far, but several kept
right on until they reached the Grand Cen
trail depot. crowd Of passengers, coming
out of the depot, was scattered like sheen
panic ensued, but fortunately no one was
hurt. The steers kept on their way. They
gored severs! horses aud chased unluckv
pedestrians. A lady. in getting out of e
stage on Fifth avenue, was knocked down,
but not seriously hurt. A boy was tossed
into an ash barrel. The drove kept on to
the North river, where they were stopped
By the water. Ope steer wanted to swim
over to Jersey, and went over the pier into
the water. He was fished out. The others
started back for the East river, running
wildly through the streets, soring horses and
upsetting pedestrians. Four Of the steers
were shot by the police, and the rest finally
corra!ed and driven to the slaughter house.
Although the wild stampede Of the cattle
caused much panic ard damage, no persan
