INDIANAPOLIS, Nov.2.-To-day is bright
and warm. In most of the precincts q
large proportion of the vote had been cast
at noon. The result on cJun'y tickets is
IN doubt because of the immense amount
of scratching being dOue. The negroes
are voting for several of the local candi-
dates which were not expected. Both par
ties claim the election Of the state ticket.
The plurality will be small. AS far as
known the prohibition vote is not gaming

THE FRUIT CROP.
Apples Will Fall n Little Below the
Average Crop.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Aug. Is.
With the aid of some 1900 special cores
pondents the New England Homestead of
this city, will this week be enabled to pre-
sent a very complete forecast as to the larger
fruits, the harvest of which has not yet been
commenced.
1t is an "even" year for apples in New
England but though there is large yield of
all fruit the reports indicate that the crop of
winter apples will be about 20 per cent of the
usual seven" year weld in the six States
In the best apple counties of Vermont,
along Lake Oh implain, not two thirds of a
full even year crop will be secured, while
Maine reports decrease of 90 per cent. but
these States and New Hampshire will have a
large surplus. Connecticut has but half a
crop and Massachusetts so ler cent.
But the falling off n New England will be
partly made up by the great crop in the
apple sections in Nova Scotia and New York
Cable reports from various points IN Eng
land and on the continent confirm the earlier
predictions of a short apple crop. Conse-
quently there will be good demand across
the Atlantic for New England fruit.
Pears in New England. will be con.idera-
bly, below the usual yield. There will be a
fair crop of pluns, while in southern New
England the grape crop will be excellent.

THROUGH A BRIDGE.
Frlghtful Accident on a Narrow Guage
Railroad in vermOnt-The Engineer
of the Train Killed and Seven Others
Seriously Injured.
BRArrLEBoRo, VT. Aug is


There was frightful accident on the Mar
row Guage railroad here tonight in which the
engineer of the train was killed and seven
others were seriously injured The scene of
the accident is one mile from the village at
the mouth OF West river where the combina-
ton iron and wooden bridge. 200 feet long
spanhed the stream. 60 feet above the water,
and which broke under the weight Of mi ed
tram, consisting of six fiat, two box and one
passenger and baggage car, all of which
went down with the bridge, burying the en-
gineer under the locomO, i've in Is feet of
water. The train was loaded with granite
lumber and smaller freight all of which is a
complete wreck in the river. The passenger
and two box cars went down some 35 feet
with the trestle work, which was anchored to
the pier at the north end of bridge. Among
the passengers seriously injured were the
following: j. j. Green, station agent at
Newtane, internally injured and since died :;
M. Butter, station sgsnt at Wardsboro,
spinal injury, recovery doubtful; A. B. Ash
ley, statl agent at West Dummers, COM
pound fracture of the right leg; Michael
OConnor, brakeman, leg broken and head
cut; Mrs. Hildreth of Hiusdae, N. II , two
ribs broken; her husband cut about
the head. The body of Engineer H. A
Smith cannot be secured until the wreck is
removed. Ned Prentiss, fireman who went
down with the engine, miraculously escaped
uninJured by crawling through the cab win
dow after the engine was submerged The
wounded were taken to the Congregational
chapel where Mr.. Green died three hours
after the disaster. Local physicians are in
attendance upon the wounded who are being
tenderly cared for by a number of women in
town. Three or four other passengers es-
capped with slight injuries. The broken
bridge was built by c. f Danforth & Co. of
New York, and was designed by the well
known Engineer Botter, Engineer w. A.
Haven supervising its construction. The
bridge was designed for locomotive of Is
tons weight and cars not over 10 tons weight,
though it is said that trains of twice the weight
named have been run over the bridge since
the opening of the granite quarries in Dunn
merston. The length of the road is 81 miles
with its terminus at Londonderry. The ILL
fated train was not heavily loaded and the
accident was undoubtedly caused by the
breaking of the irons supporting the structure
or by rotten timbers.
