SHACKLE CLINKINCS.
A Husy Day In Iand-CuTf Circles
Civil suit.

It is long time since the wheels of
justice, with Judge Piper at the crank,
have ground out such grist as they did
to-day. The Police Court was busy until
the hour Of closing, with the following
cases:
Horace Faucet and William House
holder were arraigned on the charge OF
stealing q ride on a ID. & r. q. train.
They pleaded not guilty, but the evidence
was overwhelming, and the Court SEN
fenced them to pay fine OF $15 each.
As their bank accounts are getting low,
they both concluded to economic, and
they will therefore work one day for each
dollar OF their fines.
Mary Smithens, better known as
Little Mary" appeared in court to an
swer to the charge of vagrancy. Mary is
a back-alley belle OF the first water, but
her popularity among the denizens OF
Scumtown was taken by the Judge as
detrimental to her character. Mary was
guilty, but she was also repentant, and
as the Court is believer in the doctrine
of repentance and the remission OF sins,
he decided to give Mary another
chance. 1t was therefore agreed
that sentence should be suspended,
provided she would depart for
Ogden on the first train, The Judge no
doubt thought he was doing charitable
act in sending Mary to the Junction
town, but those who have ever been there
know that no worse punishment could
have been administered.
Mrs. Charles came into court with a
face about as badly bruised as is her
character, and, upon being found guilty
Of being drunk, obscene and profane,
she was given fifty days in jail
Fred Southern, Fred Solomon alias Tug
Wilson, Joseph Plant and w. Davis alias
Yorkie, were all arrested by the police
this morning. These are the tough boys
who have been wanted by the cops since
October on the charge OF battery upon a
heather. Since that time they have
been rusticating on the Coast, and had
returned here for the winter social sea-
son. Their case comes up on Monday.
John Leadford and Will Davis, arrested
on two charges OF petit larceny, pleaded
not guilty and will have hearing on
Monday morning at 10 o'clock.
The Best gambling case went over until
next week
Dr. S. o. J.. Potter entered suit against
I. f. Smith to recover S29 balance due
for medical services. The case will be
heard next week.

Utah's historian, who offered TO write up
and publish, with the Councils support
and sanction, a history OF Ogden City,
similar to the work he has lately issued
about Salt Lake City. Petitioner, being
present, explained the purpose OF his
work. On Councillor Drivers motion,
amended by Councillor Rich, the petition
was referred to the Committees on Laws
and Finances, with the Mayor added,
acting as one committee.
Thos Myers, nightwatchman OF the
County Court House, who is now getting
$3.50 night, applied for a "raise, y which
upon recommendation and motion OF
Councillor Rich was granted, petitioner
to receive so day hereafter.
Mrs. Volker's petition for the remit
lance of her taxes was recommended
favorably, the fact OF her son being on
Mormon mission cutting figure.
Granted. From the Fire Department,
Councillor Boyle reported the purchase oil
a nice stove for the Fireman's Hall. The
water was reported running in good order
(probably down hilD, the hydrants also
being good, whereas Driver interposed
that six or seven OF the hydrants
were frozen up hard; but Alder
man Doe explained the matter
Work had been done on Lynne lane,
north of Five Points, also north Of Lynne
schoolhouse. The street committee We're
progressing as fast as possible with grad
ing on Fifth street. The gravel tramway
could do for $3.50 at least $l5 worth OF
work, when the cars were in running
order. The question was whether it
should be a success or failure. At
present the rolling stock was not, as
Councillor Driver acknowledged, as per
feet and practicable as it ought to be.
Now two horses could not pull one car,
whereas one horse should pull three cars,
or even four, ii the wheels were proper.
: Driver went heartily for the tramway
committee, which he blamed in severe
terms for the present blockade. The
whole thing was Sin bad fix" There
was hot time in general, the
hottest your reporter ever witnessed in
the City Council for four years. Mr..
Driver wantrd to "see the wheels 60
wound" as in "Helen's Babies" The
reporters previous petition for more table
room was answered by compromise.
The petitions of j. d. Carnahan,

for the purpose of purchasing city lots
were granted 1t was moved and carried

THE U. 4 N. SMASHUP.
One Man Killed ana IL Train of
Cars Demolished.

Word reached this city last night Of a
terrible smashup which occurred on the
Utah & Northern road between the
Summit" and Mendon, on Wednesday
night.
The north-bound freight was divided
into two sections, each OF which went over
the hill with double header The first
division was some distance ahead of the
other when the divide was reached. As
they started on the descent which leads
into Cache Valley, the engineer Of Section
2 tried to use his vacuum brakes, but
found that they were out of
order. He then whistled "down
brakes" and the train men all
rushed to the hand brakes. Only a few
OF these were in working order, and with
so heavy load they had but little effect.
Reaching the straight stretch OF track
which runs from the top OF the hill down
to Mendon, the speed OF the train became
fearful, and all efforts to slacken it were
vain. The first train was signalled as
they came in sight OF it, but the signal
was apparently unheard. At the last
moment, when there was no hope OF
saving the trains, the tralnmen on Section
2 jumped and saved their lives, none OF
them being hurt.
Conductor Galbraithe, OF the first
train, was standing on the platform OF
his caboose when the second train came
in sight, and from that moment he re-
manned at his post giving the signal to
stop until the final crash. His bravery
was something no less wonderful than is
the fact that he was unhurt. The only
man killed was James McCabe, resi-
dent of Eagle Rock, who was riding in
the car next in front OF the caboose. At
the moment OF the crash he was thrown
to the rail and cut in two.
The second train was pretty well
wrecked by the collision, and the first
escaped by running away from the scene.
The fault of the accident is all in the de-
fectiye brakes on the engine OF Section 2.
