Railroad Accident.

There was very serious accident on
the Metropolitan Branch Of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad on Monday Of last week
Two trains tried TO pass on the same
track. The colidng trains, one u freight
and one an accommodation, were running
at high rate Of speed and the result was
two badly smashed-up locomotives four
broken freight cars and three demolished
coaches. The engineers and hremen
jumped to save their lives, as soon as they
saw that the collision was inevitable. The
engineer of the freight escaped with very
slight injuries. Charles Ceton, the fire
man. was, however, badly bruised. Ben
Vermillion, the engineer Of the "bObtail,
had his arm broken, aud Charles Shelton,
the fireman. dlslocated his hip and had his
hand badly twisted.
There were, fortunately, but few pas
sengers on the tram, and the most OF these
escaped without injury, though they were
all badly scared. The most serious in
juries we're sustained by Mr. w. w.
Vented, of Harper's Ferry, who was
severely injured about his head by strik-
ing against the seat IN front OF him. lie
was removed to farmers house near Lin
den, where he received medical attend
ance, but was too i'll to be taken to
Washington on the first train. Shortly
after being removed to the house he be-
gan splitting blood, and his condition If
thought to he serious. Another passenger
had his wrist broken. One of the passen-
gers, a colored man, happened to be SIT
ting in the seat next TO the water-cooler
when +. the collision occurred, and by ITS
force completely upsetting the cooler
giving the passenger an ice-cold bath
The wounded men were taken to Washing

We take the following from the Page
Courier Of the 2lst INST
Several days ago stranger, giving his
name as O. b. Rchold, made his advent
into this town, representing that he was
an Englishman, an iron worker, member
Of the Baptist church, capitalist. etc. He
soon ingratiated himself into the conf
dence of number of our citizens, and then
set TO work to swndle them. He claimed
TO be connected with large nail factory
in PENNSYLVANIA, and was buying up all
the old IRON he could get, and came near
getting away with carload without pay
ing for it before his real character was
SUSPECTED. Messrs. Sherman and Jamisoh,
the former Of whom he had bought lot OF
/ iron. first mistrusted him, and demanded
pay before he moved the car, when be Of
fered TO settle by check. which of course
was refused. He then set about getting
money from acquaintance he had made
in Luray. 70 satisfy Mr.. s., which he sue
oeeded in doing by getting Mr.. S. w.
Broyles. an employee in this Office, to en-
dorse check for him to the amount of
$50. The operations Of the scoundrel then
soon became known to the different par
ties Of whom he had bought iron, who at
once attached the car Richold then find
ing the atmosphere getting rather warm
skipped the town on foot. lie also pro-
posed erecting a nail factory in Luray IN
a few months, and before leaving had Sc
cured ground for the purpose, but 1t j.
now Thought that he will hardly begin
work as early rs stated. He is an unmiti-
gated scoundrel, and the newspapers
should pass him around.
The barn belonging to Mr.. Chas. &.
Koontz, near Marksville. was entirely con
sumed by fire last Monday morning be-
tween four and five O'Clock, together Will
q large lot Of hay, some wheat, phosphate
all his harness, etc. The young man Nv
ing with him had gone to the barn will
lamp which he set down while he wen
TO the field after his horses. He had gon'
but a snort time when, on looking back
be discovered the barn to be on fire. How
+ the fire originated from the lamp is no
known. The corn crib and wagon loade
B with potatoes, were also destroyed. Nj

nEsrRucTIVE FIRE.

Messrs. w. B. & Abraham Liehhter, OF
PowelIs Fort, had the misfortun to lose
their new barn on their farm at Seven
Fountains, by fire from steam thresher
on Wednesday. The loss Is very heavy
including IS bushels of clover seed, SUI
bushels of wheat, 400 bushels of corn, 90
tons Of hay, colt and clover huller.
P.S.-Since the above was in type Mr.
Jno. O'Flaherty called to see rs and gave
MS the following additional particulars :
The engine and threshing apparatus be-
longed TO him, and was comparatively
new The machine was one Of Fneks
combined grain threshers and clover
hullers, ond was entirely destroyed. One
of the front wheels was burnt from under
the engine, the tiues were sprung as we'll
as other parts damaged. Mr. O'Flaherty's
loss will not DO less than $780, The loss
Of the Lichliter Bros. will be very heavy,
probablya as much as $500 on which there
is light insurance, which may cover one
third of the loss. -Four horses and colt
were in the stables and ere all gotten
out safely, but the colt became 80 fright
ened that it ran back into the stable where
it persisted Besides the different lots of
gram mentioned above there was 100
bushels of oats aud 100 bushels of rye de-
stroyed, a new riding saddle, set Of buggy
harness, halters, collars, sc. About or
10 shocks of corn in the field adjoining
the barn were also destroyed. The build
ings burned were a large new barn, proba-
bly, the best in the Fort, a grainery and
wagon she'd Mr. OF. says the fire originat-
cd from sparks from the engine and spread
with a rapidity almost inconceivable, CIV
Ing them bat little time 10 save anything.
The last article gotten ont was mower
thar was surrounded with fire when 1t was
pulled out. The great danger OF the en-
CINE exploding as it was almost red hot,
as well as the intense heat caused by the
great mass Of burning hay, straw, grain
&c, made all the efforts to save property
extremely difficult and dangerous. The
firm of Vim. b. Lichliter & Bros, consist
ing of VIM. b., Abraham and David
Lichliter, are among the most energetic
and pushing men of their section as well
as Of the county, and they have the warm
sympathy Of the entire community

alities of the road in the shape Of box
car of an excursion train, as was the case
during the Fair here. Finely dressed
ladies and children were crowded into
these inconceivably filthy, hot and sitting
dens and hauled home to find to their
horror that they had gotten their persons
and clothes filed with vermin. Delicately
reared ladies and little girls had the sick
ening truth forced upon them when they
left the miserable cars that they were
covered with chicken lice 1t was
enough TO make the outraged people turn
against this LUCE gorged monster Of a
corporation and drive them from the
country. We are Informed that when the
excursion tickets they gave ont az the
different points charged from ten
to fifteen cents additional on the excursion
rates. Is there no redress Can no law

that the people of this once free country
are chained hand and foot to the triumphal
car of the b. & o. r. r. Let the people
awake to a realizing sence Of their situa-

sembled at the committee room this
evening TO continue the examination Of
Commissioner Black. Extension Com
missioner Dudley, whose administration
Of the Pension Office is understood to
have been the subject Of the allegetions
of Commissioner Blacks report, which
gave rise to the investigation, was
present. Senator Harrison repeated
his inquiry of the last meeting,
II the Commissioner could furnish
the names and numbers in any cases
which has been allowed or rejected on
account of the politics Of the claimant.
General Black in reply furnished list
of twenty cases. all Of which he said
came within the classes referred to. lie
said he would furnish in addition three
or four hundred affidavits when the com
mittee should have examined this list, in
support of his allegation that the Pension
Office was conducted as political
machine. Commissioner Black said
in answer to further inquiries
that the list by no means
comprised all OF the cases OF the char
acter referred to of which he had any
knowledge. Having been examined in
relation to number of cases not of
general interest, Commissioner Black
left the files in the other cases on his
list with the Committee for examina-
tion, stipulating that no others than
members should be allowed to see them.
The Committee then adjourned until
Wednesday.
