On the Benning's road, beyond the bridge, is o
settlement called Burrville. Among the inhab-
itants was WIN. Hickman, colored, aged sixty
years. Last evening about O'Clock, as Hickman
was crossing the tracks OF the Alexandria Branch
OF the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, near Ben
ning's, he was struck by an engine drawing
train OF empty stock cars and fatally in
Jured. The old man had been cleaning q
well at Louis Ford's place during the day
and left for home about $50 O'Clock, carrying
on his shoulder bag OF corn. When he reached
on the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad, his atten-
ton was attracted 70 an incoming train on that
road. The noise made by this train prevented his
hearing a train behind him on the track Oh which
lie was walking. He had not gone more than 80
feet beyond the crossing when he was struck
and the wounded man was picked up and placed
an old door found near the track and there leTt
by the train hands, while the train moved on. A
crowd OF persons gathered about Hickman, who
was unconscious He had been there In the cold
nearly Two hours when Mr.. Nicholas keyser, who
keeps q store at Benning's, sent his wagon and
had the old man removed 10 his home In Burrville.
DR. ]. W. Dean visited the injured man, and found
that his skull was probably fractured, his lert
hand 80 badly crushed that VIII
leg broken. Hickman remained unconscious
all night, and has not spoken since the engine
struck him. Persons living AT Bennings' say that
Hickman was never seen Intoxicated On The road
on which the accident occurred there are no gates
nor watchmen at any OF the crossings near Ben
nlngs'.
To-day the police ambulance was sent TO remove
the injured man, but he died before the ambulance
arrived. He leaves q vile and one child His wife

IN FAVOR OF CHEAP GAS.
The House bill in relation to the Automatic
Portable Gas Works having come before the Dis
trict Commissioners. they say IL would be better
to require existing companies to use the new pro-
cesses, II they are so excellent, than TO tear up
streets for new pipes. They suggest that as az
the low price OF gas the new company proposes IL
would cost only SI2.S0 per annum for each street
lamp, that they be required TO furnish gas 70 the
street lamps at that price.
