Awful Railroad Accident.

CHARLorTsvILLE, Va, July l2.-Ex-
press train No. 52 left Orange Court
House, southbourd, on time, at l.5O
this morning, Conductor @. p. Taylor,
Engineer Watkins and Fireman Kelly.
About two miles south of Orange is a
trestle forty-eight feet high, which was
known TO be weak, and the railroad
company was engaged in filling it in.
The train was moving at speed of
~ miles crossing the trestle under
orucrs. The engine had passed safely
over most of the trestle when the
smoker, mail, baggage aud express
cars went down with great crash,
dragging down the engine and tender
and two passenger coaches. Two sleep
ere remained on the trestle. The en-.
gine went down pilot end foremost
thus communicating no fire to tn,
wreck. All lights were extinguisheC
in the fall As soon as the acciden
occurred the engineer, who was bu
slightly injured, walked back to Orang,
and telegraphed for assistance. DR.
w. N. G, Randolph and other physi
clans left here on special train TO
the wreck. The dead and some of tn
wounded were taken TO Orange, whil
the more seriously hurt were brough
to Charlottesville and placed in the co,
tage hospital, hotels, and homes @
friends.

quoted from that Senator's letter:

100000 Fire in Bellefonte,

BELLEFoNTE, Pa, July 12-Fire
early this morning caused loss of be-
tween 100000 and $4,000. The fire
originated in the stable of the Garman
house. -Four horses and the contents
Of the stable were burned. The flames
communicated to the Garman house, a
part o. which was burned. From the
Garman house the fire reached the
house and stable of DR.. Dorworth,
whose horse was burned in the stable.
A large double house owned by Law
yer Bowers was the next to 90, the
flames from that communicating to the
Lutheran church and parsonage, which
were soon in ashes. A large number
of stables and several small houses
occupied by colored families were also
burned. The origin of the fire is un-
known, but it is thought to have been
the work of incendiaries. The fire de-.
partment of Tyrone was sent to Belle
fonte and rendered valuable assistance
in getting the fire under control. A
slight shower of rain that fell during
the night aided greatly in preventing
further spreading of the flames.
