The citizens who arranging for the in
auguration of the next President. and indeed
the people Of the city generally, are pleased to
find that the Postmaster General will not take
q narrow or prejudiced view of the request
that the removal of the local post-ofice to the
pension building be delayed, if possible, to the
end that the hall Of the latter building may
be used for the purposes Of the inaugu-
ration ball The Postmaster General
could not have co-operated with the inaugura-
eon managers more readily or with better
grace II his own party had been successful in
me election. The Secretary Of the Interior,
rom whom permission to use the pension
building must be obtained, will undoubtedly
receive the application in a similar spirit of re-
cognition that this is a national affair above
any party feeling. -Four years sgo the demo-
Gratis had the use Of the building for the in
sagurstion ball, and now they viii very cheer
fully turn 1t over TO the republicans for a like
purpose.

A Blaze on the railroad.
A COLLISION AND FIRE-wHAT HAPPENED TO A TRA AIN
BOUND FOR THIS CRY

COLLISION AND FIRE-wHAT HAPPENED TO A TRAIN
BOUND FOR THIS CITY.
An extra through freight train from Baltimore
to Washington last evening collided at Calverton,
Baltimore, with a mixed train ON the Northern
Central road and several Oil cars took fire, making
furious blaze. The Northern Central train was
being switched. When 1t had gotten partly over
the switch the through train was heard approach
Ing. naglnan Was sent up the road TO signal 1t
10 stop The train, which was composed OF thirty
cars, was too heavy 10 stop in such a short dis
lance, and The engine struck the mixed train
about half way. II was glancing blow, but the
locomotive, forced by the train, upset and crushed
locomotive was not derailed until IL struck the
bridge and then IL ran along on the sides until it
hit Tie rear car OF the mixed train, which was
loaded with stone This was stand ny directly
across the track the engine struck IL with great
force, tearing away all the forward part OF the
engine and knocking out the truck under the stone
Hat The engineer jumped on when the crash
came and Was uninJured. The fireman remained
In the box car until the train was stopped. A coal
OIL tank car which was attached TO the through
1relght took nre, and In a short time the Whole
western part OF the city was shrouded in dense
smoke The oil burned with great nerceness and
the names from the tank car soon lgnited a cattle
car, In which there were eighty barrels OF petrO-
leuIn, and TINS increased the big blaze. Wrecking
trains went 10 the scene from The Northern Cen
trail and Baltimore and Potomac yards The track
was twisted and torn up Tor 500 yards, and the
sides OF the road were lined with fragments from
The broken and derailed cars. All trains were
blocked and traffic was suspended. The tracks
were cleared for the resumption VI travel late last
night The damage Is roughly estimated at

Miss Murray and Mr. MOrfOrd.
Is THE LATTER TO BIZ SUED FOR $50, 600 FOR BREAcI


the New York Sun says: Miss Mary E. Murray,
OF Brooklyn, has sued George MorrOrd Bridge
port millionaire, to recover diamonds valued at
$1,000, and IN the Supreme Court, Brooklyn, yes
terday, warrant or attachment against Mr.. Nor
fords New York real estate was obtained. Miss
Murray's lawyers intimate that she will also
bring suit against Mr.. Alorford for 10000 dam
ages IOr alleged breach OF promise Or marriage.
Miss Murray's acquaintance with Mr.. Morrord be-
gan Three years ago. she says, when she was nine
teen years old. sac Went 10 Bridgeport 10 teach
In private school, and there met Mr. Morford
who Is widOwer OF about forty. Mr. MorIord Is
a wholesale grocer, and his business and prop
erty are SAID 10 be worth between $1,000, 600
and S4,OOO,OO0. Soon after making her
acquaintance, 1t Is claimed, Nj. Morford
aSslduously co0rted her and finally proposed mar.
riage, and was accepted During the courtsnip he
gave the young lady many valuable presents, In.
Guiding pair Of diamond earrings and diamond
ring, the SUBJECTS OF the preliminary suit. Mr..
MorTords affection began to cool about i've months
ago, she says, and on April IA last he asked her
Tor the earrings anu ring on the pretenSe that he
wanted TO have them reset. She gave them to
him, and she has not since seen them, she says.
Sne has repeatedly asked him for tue gems, but
on every occasion she has been put on with an
excuse. The only allegation against the 0erend-
ant As that he has neglected to fulfil his promise
to marry. IL Is 1ntiinated that he believed Miss
Murray thought more OF his money than OF him,
and because Oh this failed 10 keep the engagement.

Orbit Of the New Comet.


Prot Boss, OF the Dudley Observatory, at Albany,
has completed calculations OF the orbit OF the new
comet discovered by Prof. Barnard, at the Lick CD
servatory, September2 2. This comet has remained
so nearly stationary In the sky since Its discovery
That The determination OF its true orbit or path
space has been a work OF great df1lculty, and the
results at present reached can be regarded as
merely approximate. According to these the comet
Is now about twice as lar from the earth the
is, or about 100 900 900 miles, and Is, at the same
time, about 10000, OOO from the sun. 1t Is NOV
Ing toward It's pereneuon or point where II Will be
nearest the sun, and present calculations indicate
that this point wiz be reached December 10; but
tns date is liable TO be Ill error by fully thirty
days. As the comet and the earth are moving to-
ward each other from opposite directions, the We
locltyol approach toward Us Is something UNUSUAL
about 3,OOO,OOO miles day. consequently the
comet Will Rapidly Increase In brightness; for In
stance, On october 1t Will be ABOUT five times as
bright as at the discovery, and about the middle
OF November sixty times as bright But at discov-
cry II Was extremely faint, and IL is rather doubt
Iui whether IL VIII become visible to unasslsted
eyes. subsequent calculations will determine this
question with much greater certainty.

A Chimese Cassandra.


China has a modern Cassandra In the person of
Con Yeem Dye shee, female joss, who prophe-
sizes for next May fever, lre, drought, storms and
starvation, any one Of which would be sufficient
for an ordinary prophet in good working order.
The prediction was made to an ola man, Lee
Dem Shee, In his bunk one night and has thrown
all China into CONSERVATION, for Dye Shee (and
the wonder Is some enc does not carry out her
name) is an old hand at It. 1t was she who
stopped the black DIR .g0n on his way TO heaven
last year, and so oyerIiowed the bottomless pit
same time Dye Shee cont1ded TO the old man three
letters unknown TO the Chinese language, but
which appear to be q Donnelly representation OF
shakespeare's autograph. These, written on yell
low paper. are an anttdOte TO the calamities COL
lectlveiy or Seriatum. The Chinese OF San Fran
cisco are greatly excited over the matter and are
making arrangements to have the autograph re-
printed On large scale TO be worn as an amulet.

The mother OF the emperor Of China Is no longer
regent, and so. free from the cares OF state, has
turned frolicsome, says the New York Sun cable
correspondent. This TACT, which will merely inter-
est the world at large, fills with deep alarm her
imperial maJesty's Chinese boatmen, and this is
why: To amuse herself the empress plays game
which only Chinese Can call by It's NAME which
sounds like mon hef rha, and is q sort OF lag
played In the dark. LatJerly her majesty, not
content with playing In big, dark room, mas been
playing on the big lake In the palace grounds
other in the dark ness. On this account the boat
men object Some have run away and others
are begging leave TO resign, for Chinese law is
we're, and they cannot refuse TO race their tmpe-
nal mistress around In the dark, though boaImen
VINO might drown her. however unwilling, know
that . painful death would be devised for them
selves and all their families,

Of Max Rice and claimed TO be book agent. He
Immediately proposed marriage, and, she consent
ing, they were united by Mayor Hewitt in New

disappeared with her clothing, Jewelry, aud watch
and cnain She waited patiently, hoping that he
would return, but he came not.
In an old coat that he left behind she found
letter from william Cassair, Mount Vernon

nesday, only TO learn that her husbands surname
was not Rice, but Neustadter. Yesterday she
located hin Cd 9Th street, below Lombard. Chief
