GENERAL NEWS NOTES.
Horrible Railroad Accident In New York

An excursion train to the Falls OF the
Niagara started from Ashtabula, Ohio, on
the 14eh. The eleven passengers cars were
heavily loaded. Lewis Brewer was engi-
neer. The scene Of the accident is q short
distance east of Silver Creek, n. T., on a
short curve, approached by long,
high trestle and through deep cut.
The excursion train was going only ut a
speed of about eight miles an hour, when
Engineer Brewer was terrified by the sight
of an approaching freight train, coming at
the rate OF thirty miles an hour. He at
once reversed his engine, put on the air
brakes, jumped for his life, followed by his
fireman; none too soon, for the engines
came together with deafening crash, and
in an instant were converted into heap
OF scrap iron. The engineer and fireman OF
the freight train also jumped and escaped.
Next to the baggage car was the smoker,
the platform OF which was lower than the
Others and which allowed it to go under.
The result was that the baggage car was
thrown upward and backward, landing
squarely on top of the smoking ear, crush
ing and filling it, except the space occu-
pied by two or three OF the rear seats the
following cars being extensively damaged,
but the occupants escaped with shake-up.
AS the smoker was filled with men, the re-
suit can be better imagined than described.
each Others arms, while underneath them
and on all sides lay the poor unfortunates
who were instantly killed, crushed out OF
all human resemblance. The wounded
crawled out OF the debris and were assisted
to the neghboring houses.
Henry Huyck, aged twenty, Sterri ttonia,
Pa, legs ground to a pulp and were am
putated on the return train; he died.
Stephen Cuthbertson. burgess OF Water
ford, Pa, prominent merchant; his re-
mains were found in terribly mangled

Great Saw Mill Burned.

About midnight on the 10th. the ''big
saw MILL at Chippewa Falls, Wis, was
struck by lightning and burned. 1t was
the largest mill in the world, and owned
and operated by the Chippewa Lumber
ard Boom company. The mill was orisi-
nally built in 1889, having been enlarged
from time to time till it was 1SOx9O feet,
and contained five gangs OF 100 saws, five
rotaries, one band saw-the only one in
operation in the Chippewa valley-one
double-block shingle mill, three lath mills
and two picket mills.
The company has furnished employment
to about l 200 men in the yards and mill,
and at present employs 300 men in the
mill The annual capacity was about IS, :
900, 900 feet OF lumber, 10000, 900 laths,
10000, 900 shingles. The total cut for
this season up to Sept. 1 is 29,516, $50

chinery and operatives were. The machin-
cry was valued at 100000. The total
loss is S25O,OOO. The insurance is $45,-

We clip the following from remark
the Louisiana Advance:
1.-The high rate of traffic charged by
every road in Louisiana tells us tina,
| the day has arrived when the State is
in need of a railroad commission tc
regulate and equalize passenger and
freight rates. The enormous freights
that are paid the railroads all must
eventually be paid by the consumer,
| and in this State the farmer is almost
| wholly the consumer. The merchant
loses nothing by high freights, because
he sells his goods and attaches the
freights as q part of the cost.
Our legislators are elected by the
farming people and they must look to
every measure that will protect their
interest. The history of railroads in
other States teaches us that it is the
custom of all roads to discriminate in
favor OF certain towns and to unmerci
fully trample upon the people that are
completely at their mercy for Transport
tation. The record in other States is
the experience of Louisiana.
Another notable fact is that where
railroad legislation is most stringent
the country is developed by railroads
more rapidly than when the people are
afraid to make a move for self-pr0tec-
ton lest it brighten off some capitalists
who antic pate building u road some
where. Let the railroads OF Louisiana
develop and then it will be as utterly
impossible to secure railroad commits
sion as it is now to rid the State of the
lottery, and then instead OF the lottery
controlling the Legislature, the. rail-
roads can put up the money to prevent
the passage of every bill that NAV be
detrimental to their interest. No rail-
road will do Il country good that char
yes the same price for the transporta-
ion OF freight as when hauled bv
wagon 80 miles before the road was
St. Landry democrat. (Opelousas, La.) 1878-1894, 1886-02-20

We may add that Mr. Archibald'>
works on criminal law furnish the lega
profession with complete supplement
to our system as now
found in our Revised Statutes His
wcrks are universally used in Louis.
iaua and are accepted by the legal pro-
fcssions as Il safe guide in matters OF
pleading and practice. One of the most
important respects in which we follow
the common law, is in regard to detini-
nitiOns of crimes and the formation of
indictments. AS to the latter, the SUI
preme Court in Cookies case, 20 A. y.
145, have said the English forms Of
Indictment have been in use for many,
year they have stood the test of time, and
they can hardly be bettered in respect
to clearnesS, fullness and SuecinctneSs."
The present Supreme Court in Harvi's
case, 33 A. p. 1882 quote these words
with emphatic approval. The common
law definitions OF crimes are also univtr
sally accepted by the bench and bar of
Louisiana, and can no more he i'm
proved upon than the English form Of
indictments. We may also add that the
mode of trial of criminal cases at COM
mon law is also deeply Embedded in our
tered without undoing the work and
experience of generations OF lcSiSla
lures and courts.
The only revision of our laws needed
or demanded by the bench and bar of the
state, is anew edition of the Civil Code
and Code of Practice, leaving out the
articles that have been repealed, and in
the amendments that have
been made, and Il new edition of the
Revised Statutes, eliminating the pro-
visions repealed and incorporating in
the volume the statutes of
a general character enacted since the
year 1870. If the commission should
contine itself within these limits, it will
act wisely. 1t on the contrary, it at
tempts important changes of our law,
civil or criminal, and the Legislature
should adopt its work, we will soon
nave occasion to regret and repent the
njudicious step. The lawyers, not to
speak OF the man of ordinary intelli-
sence, will be at sea, and straightway
,ench and bar will begin the task of
and correcting the ambisu- .
les and incongruities OF the new svs-
EN-.
Whatever defects there may be in |.
ur laws, can he corrected from time
o time by the Legislature as the ne
essity for so doing is manifested, each
NV receiving separate legislative con-
Iteration and action. Experiments :
lay be tried in the field OF science, but .
OF in the matter of making laws. 1t is
etter, far better, "to stick to the evils

The House Daily Session to Begin
Hereafter at II O'clock.
THE ASSIGNMENTS OF THE WEEK
Important Measures that viii Occupy the
Attention Of Congress This
Week.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 9.-Hereatter
the daily session of the House of Repre-,
sentstives will begin at IL o'clock. The
assignments of the week are as follows:
Monday, after the call of States, to the
Committee on the District of Columbia, for
bills of local interest, the most important
Of which is that providing for bridge
across the Potomac.
Tuesday, to the Committee on Private
Land Claims.
Thursday, to the Committee on Agricul,
ture aud Saturday, to the consideration OF
joint resolution providing for a commits,
sion to inquire into Indian affairs.
There are number OF important meas
ures not thus provided for, among them
the interstate Commerce, the electoral
count and land grant bills which
were made special orders tor dates long
past whose supporters will contest the
floor with come of the committees named
while tie army and the diplomatic sppro.
pristion bills are likely TO be pressed and
cause further disarrsugement OF the as.
signment. Again it is among the posi-
bllltles OF the week that long discussion
may arise upon~ the subsidy
amendment to the postofice bill
the Presidents message regarding private
pension bills or the proposition 10 permit
the offering Of amendment to general
pension bills to provide for taxation to
meet its own required expenditure.
The tariff debate is not now expected to
begin this week. The Senate has con.
sented to devote tomorrow and Tuesday
TO the discussion of the Interstate Com.

fore adjournment Tuesday. 1t ia the
understanding that the general pension
bill shall be next taken up and
the bankruptcy bill The open
session resolutions the Chinese resrric-
tion bill aud the Pacific railroad debt
bill shall follow in their order. II is pos.
sibls, however, that not more than one or
two of those measures will be disposed Of

ton Committee has the agricultural, the
pension, and the District Of Columbia ap
preparation bills under consideration, and
its sub-committees have made such pro-
gress that one or more Of them may be
