said that last year he had said the univer-

I. ST. PAUL, MINI, Jan. ola collision
Of two passenger trains has just occurred
on the Minneapolis & St. Louis railroad,
near the foot of Third street, in this city.
It is a complete wreck, and q number of
passengers are injured. One man was
decapitated. The collision wal between
the, Red River express on the Northern
Pacific and the Minneapolis g. st. Louis

from Minneapolis. The engineers on

versed the engines, and, with the firemen,
jumped and saved their lives, The

to hold. Both engines were badly
smashed, and two coaches were wrecked.

Ginnfs were riding from the shops on the
Minneapolis & st. Louis engine. Flaherty
was Instantly killed, his head being cut
from the body, as clean as II

in mn Order for Repeating Rifles.
DUBLIN, Jan. a1.--Mr. O'Brien, adj
dressing a meeting at Tul ANDRE, shortly
after his release, said i. was with the
greatest difficulty that he could find
words to express adequately his graft
tude for the kindness of his countrymen,
especially Morehead and Egan, without
whose assistance in his lonely duel with
his %jailors there might have been a diff
ferent event to celebrate from the one his
hearers rejoiced over. Referring to Mr..
Blunt's charges against Mr.. Balfour, Mr..
O'Brien said he had heard them from Mr..
Blunt himself long before there was any
likelihood that Mr.. Blunt would be one of
Balfour's victims. 1t was owing to Mr..
Blunt's statement, III fact, that he had
told Morehead apd Egan that he believed
he had been brought to Tullamore prison
to be murdered, for he knew that Mr..
Blunt would allow his right hand to
withef in fire before he would tell 8 lie.
Apart from Mr.. Blunt's revelations, Mr..
O'Brien and his fellow prisoners had a
right to infer the worst from Mr.. Bal
four's secrecy in immuring. them in
what they supposed would turn to BIO
Tullamore catacombs. 1t was fair, how
ever, to say that the prison officials per-
formed their odious duties with the least
possible %harshness.

CONCORD, Nh. Jan. 21.--The Canadian
Pacific express, consisting of an engine,
baggage, first and second class passenger
cars and a drawing-room coach, jumped
thet track Friday evening near the East
Concord station, on the White Mountain
division OF the Boston & Lowell road.
The engineer, noticing something was
wrong, had reversed the engine
and applied the brakes, when
the engine struck the frog and ran
owe a siding, the cars following. The
engine was then forced from the rails,
turned on its side and hurled into the
end of a freight house and completely de-
molisaea it. The tender was de-
tached and turned end for end
several times. The eara left the
iron, but retained an upright
position, lying In a zigzag manner across
the main line and siding. There were
about seventy-iye passengers on the
train, none OF whom received the slight
eat injury. Edward III. Lowther, the
engineer, retained his hold upon the
throttle, and remained with the engine
until 1t stopped on its side in the freight
station, when he dropped on the floor.
He was badly cut on the face and hands.
Fireman Davis continued with the
tender, and found himself under the
wheels when it stopped. Neither Of the
men was seriously hurt. The cause of
