The Boston Evening Record OF Septem-
Der 2s says "0n September 20 the Rec
ord published the facts OF dastardly at
tempt to wreck the 4 $50 p. m. Providence
express train, ON the Boston & Providence
railroad. 1t will be remembered tnat the
engineer aud fireman OF the train noticed
the obstruction and stopped the train be-
fore 1t reached the obstacle, which
proved TO be an iron rail, With stones
wedged In between the rails.
"The spot, which was at the rounding
of curve near Clarendon Hills station,
was bad one TO have an accident occur.
At the time a colored youth was seen
lettering about the place and he was
taken IN custody He gave the name OF
Warren Potter, said he was fourteen years
Of age, and his place OF residence Boston.
At first he denied all knowledge OF the
affair, but said that he saw six other fel-
lows run away from the place where the
distractions were found. This morning
he was arraigned In the West Roxbury
district court, and held In $500 70 await
the action Of the Suffolk grand jury. He
has made confession, and says there
were four companions with him, bat re.
fuses to tell their names.
"He says that their only reasons foI
planning the wrecking Of the train was u
rob the passengers that would be killed.
and then he and his rascally companions
had contemplated trip TO the West. II
is not known whether the officers have
any clew as TO the identity or whereabouts
of the other culprits. Potter Is a very
cool individual for one so young"

GALVESTON, TEX, Oct. THE inquest
over the remains of the supposed muir
dered man, Richard Laycock, failed to
develop many new particulars regarding
the manner Of his death. The gashes
on the arms Of Laycock have been pro-
nounced shark bites and not the result of
knife thrusts as iirst supposed. The evil
Idence, however, tends to show that Lay
cock was on something Of spree, and,
going TO sleep on board the schooner
Burkhardt, II is supposed that he
got up before he was thoroughly awake
and walked overheard. No arrests have
yet been made, but on the return OF the
BurkhaTdt, 1t Is believed, that o couple of
men will be taken into custody. The
mother OF Laycock is suffering from
acute heart disease, and the surviving
children dare not tell her that Richard Is
dead, for fear it win XIII her. She thinks
Richard has only been hurt.
