THE A. 4 P. WRECK.
An Eyewitness Account of Wha,
Occurred.

An EVes witness Account OF What
Occurred.
An arrival in the city yesterday from
Albuquerque, N. M, was at the wreck
on the Atlantic and Pacific of the over
land passenger train which left this city
on Friday afternoon from the First-street
depot. The disaster took place in John
sons Cafion, about forty miles this side
of Williams and at point which is GER
tainly the most as well as the most
dangerous picturesque place on the
whole line. The track edges around the
side of a rocky bluff at height of about
140 feet from the level, and it was there
that the train left the rails. The engine
plunged down, carrying most of the
coaches with it and the cars
piled up in heap at the
bottom of the canon. The locomotive
was literally broken to pieces, the only
thing left intact baing the boiler, and the
cars were smashed almost into match
wood. The most remarkable thing about
the whole affair is that nobody was killed.
The trainmen and number of paesen-
gers were very badly injured, but it is
impossible to obtain their names, as the
!dAIoau comPauy ConUrOlS tue wire, ana
is very reticent abont the catastrophy.
Another strange thing is that the train
did not catch on fire, as is usually the
case, under the circumstances of the cars
being piled about a wrecked engine.
Those who participated in the wreck will
doubtless have experiences to relate that
will equal anything yet attempted in the
line of fiction.
The HERALD's informant stated that
wreck occurred to the west-bound train
at point few miles east of the John
sons canon disaster. No one was hurt,
and beyond the damage to the compsny's
rolling. stock, the only ill-effects were a
delay Of twenty-seven hours.

A DARING AERONAUT.
Hogan Repeats Ills Parachute Feat Mt tho
Newnrk Shooting Park.

Newark Shooting Park.
NEW YoRK, July l2.-At the Newark
Shooting Park, last evening, Aeronaut
Hogan, of jackson, Mich, had an ad-
venture with his big fire balloon and
parachute.
The balloon during initiation was sus-
pended between two trees by a stout
rope, which the attendant forgot TO re-
lease when the word was given for the
gang OF men holding the balloon to
let go.
Hogan, clinging to the trapeze bar,
was carried up about thirty feet and
flung into a tree, to which he clung and
shouted for somebody to cut the rope.
Meanwhile his parachute wound around
the tree, and the balloon, held by the
rope at the top, turned over and allowed
one.third OF the hot air to escape. The
rope was cut and the daring aeronaut,
Clinging to the trapeze, was torn from
the tree and, with parachute trailing,
carried over the club house and across
the street, where he dropped unhurt
into a barnyard.
Quickly gathering up his balloon and
parachute, Hogan prepared for another
attempt, and at o'clock made it sue
ccssfully, going up for thousand feet
or more and sailing away fora mile over
the city before he threw his weight
upon the frail cords attaching the para.
chute to the balloon and tore it loose,
He descended in safety and returned Ia
the park in half an hour.

CHEERS POR TlIG TIcKRT.
The Republican Clubs finish Their Work
and Adjourn.

SARATOGA, n. Y, July 12.-0n the
convening this morning Of the State Re
publican clubs, the first business taken
up was the naming OF members of the
Executive Committee by the representa-.
tives OF the different counties.
Resolutions were adopted thanking
the speakers OF oflastevening. onmotion,
Mr.. Dudley Phelps, OF New York, was
chosen Assistant Secretary. Mr..
Sciawartz, of New York, was introduced
and spoke of the formation Of Hungar.
ian clubs in New York city; he promised
600 votes for the Republican party from
his people. He closed with series Of
resolutions extending the sympathy Of
the convention to General Sheridan,
which were adopted amidst tumult Of
cheering and rising vote.
A motion directing the publication OF
the proceedings Of the convention in
pamphlet form met with opposition, and
was referred to the Executive Committee
with power to act.
The convention adjourned sine die,
with three cheers for Harrison and
Morton. Numerous interruptions were
made TO the adjournment motion, reso-
lutions OF thanks being offered until
almost every one in Saratoga was praised
for the reception accorded the delegates.
In this rush OF resolutions the officers OF
the convention very nearly escaped q
recognition Of their labors, resolution
OF thanks to them being one OF the last
offered. On. its passage one OF the dele
gates, who had become overwhelmed
with the expressions OF gratitude 10
everybody, moved that "the thanks OF
the convention be rendered to each
delegate present for the able and i'm
partial" etc. This created laugh at
once and disconnected the speaker, who
seemed not TO appreciate the humor of
his own motion, and took his seat in
annoyance, while the great hall rang
with laughter.
Announcement was made that the
new Executive Committee would assem-
BILE Immediately after the final adjourn
ment in the reading room OF Congress
Hall for organization. A lengthy Ex-
ecutive Committee session was held,
about one-half Of the members being
present.

TO REACH NEW YORK.
Negotiations Between tho u. y o. and III.
Reading Company.

Negotiations between tho u. l. o. and tho
Reading Company.
BALTIMORE, July l2.-It is stated, on
what is considered reliable authority,
that the recent visit OF Baltimore & Ohio
railroad officials and directors to Phila-
delphia was Of greater significance than
the mere inspection of the terminal
facilities of the B. & o. in that city.
1t will be remembered that the B. &
o. has been for some time negotiating
with the Reading Road for continual
ton OF its line from Philadelphia to New
York with regard to passenger traffic.
This arrangement would have been
completed long ago had the Reading
been able to furnish the requisite roll
ing stock for the increased traffic that
would result from the combination.
The rapidity with which the new
Reading bonds, placed by the Drexel-
Morgan syndicate, were taken in this
country and Europe, it is said, has
caused the company to make an effort Mt
an early day to put $25000,0O0 more on
the market through the same source.
These bonds, 1t is stated, will be en-
dorsed by the baltimore & Ohio syndi-
cate, which will insure sale, ut fair val
uation, and enable the Reading compa-
ny to equip its road in such a manner rs
to make an arrangement with the Balti-
more & Ohio that will give the latter an
entrance into New York.
How soon the arrangement will be
completed is matter Of conjecture, but
1t is likely that the scheme will be con-
summated by the middle Of October next.

Laid ut SandusIsy by the q. AR.
SANDusEY, O., July 1.-THE corner
stone Of the administration building oi
the Ohio Soldiers and Sailors Home,
two and half miles from here, was laid
yesterday with imposing ceremonies.
Many OF the G. A. r. Posts OF the State
were represented, and an immense
crowd was in attendance. At noon the
old veterans formed in procession and
were reviewed by Governor Foraker

over the Baltimore & Ohio road TO the
home, carrying thousands OF people.
The exercises at the home opened at

Master OF Ceremonies. The corner
stone was laid by Department Com
mander 0'Neil, of the G. A. Il. OF Ohio,

cordance with the solemn aud impress
sive ritual OF the G. A. r. That stone
was then presented to the State by Col.
K. Brown, member OF the Board of
Trustees OF the Home. Immediately
thereafter Gen. w. II. Gibson delivered
u stirring and eloquent address, the
theme being "0hio in the war;" He
was followed by Governor Foraker, who
stated that the idea OF building the
home had its inception in letter writ
ten to Department Commander O'Neil
by an old soldier who was an inmate Of
u poor house, and who asked that some
thing be done by the State to ameloriate
the condition ofits old, INDECENT defend
ers in the late war.

ST. LOUIS, July 12.-The Governor
this morning rendered his decision in
which he declines to grant commuta.
ton Of the sentence against Hugh NJ.
Brooks, alias Maxwell, but granted q
respite for four weeks.
The first news that young Brooks re.
ceived this morning was that the Gov.
ernor had simply granted him a respite
for twenty.one days. This he construed
to mean that the Governor intended to
take time to fully examine the case.
Later Brooks received telegram from
his attorneys announcing respite OF
four weeks, and stating that the Gov
ernor refused absolutely to commute the
sentence or interfere in the matter. This
was sad blow to Brooks hopes, and he
said that he could not understand it. He
had felt confident that the Governor
would see his way clear, and grant his
plea for commutation, but now all hope
was gone and he must prepare for the

fifteen feet killing five persons outright
and wounding twenty-five, some Sc

Cox, Of the Engineer Departments of
the roads. The names OF others have
not yet been received. The train hands
were all more or less hurt. About two
miles south OF Orange is trestle, forty
eight feet high, which is known to be
weak, and the railroad company was en-
gagged in filling it in. The train had
passed safely over most OF the trestle
when the smoker, baggage and express
cars went down with great crash,
dragging down the engine and tender
and two passenger coaches. Two sleep
ers remained on the track. All lights

Mr.. Pngsley, Of Ohio, opposed the wool
schedule in the House to-day and said
the duty on wool should be increased
instead OF reduced.
Mr.. Morse, OF Massachusetts,, favored
the Mills bill generally and especially the
clause placing wool upon the free list.
Mr.. 0'Donnell, OF Michigan, did not
characterize the present bill as sectional.
He felt that it knew no North, no East,
no West,-it was all South. The at
tempt TO place wool oil the free list
would injure one-ffteenth OF the popula-
ton OF the country interested in wool
growing.
MIR. Boothman, OF Ohio, favored a re-
turn to the wool schedule OF 1867.
Mr.. DoCkery, OF Missouri, controvert.
ed the argument that free wool would
destroy the wool growing interest. 1t
would be as fair TO expect mother to
desert her babe as to expect the Demo
cratic party to turn its back upon the
labOring man, who had always constitu-
ted its bone and sinew.
Mr.. Dingley, OF Maine, said that since
the Mills bill had been launched in the
press, wool had declined seven cents q
pound. II the discussion Of the bill had
done this what would the bill itself dc
to the injury OF the farmer?
Mr.. ]. X. Taylor, Ohio. regarded the
bill as a conspiracy for ultimate free
trade, and he attacked its general fen
lures and more especially that feature
placing wool on the free list,
The committee then rose and the
House took a recess until O'Clock, tht
evening session to be for the considera
ton OF various private pension bills.

Physicians Report.

Emperor williams Royal Escort.
Parncll VIII Bring a Libel
suit-other Foreign News.

BERLIN, July 12.-The excitement
created throughout Germany by the re-
ports OF the German doctors who at
tended the late Emperor Frederick is
intense, and their criticisms of DIR.
Mackenzie's conduct of the case form a
topic of conversation. The Krai:eitung,
in its comments on the reports, over
whelms DR.. Mackenzie with invectives.
To the question why the German doc
tors did not attempt to save the royal
patient from DR., Mackenzie, the National
Zeitung responds that according to
Prussian principles, their official position
in the tragedy prevented them from
making an appeal to the public, but
they did appeal to Emperor William
while the sick man was at San Reno,
and one OF their number stated the case
to him without reserve. His Majesty
was deeply distressed by the recital OF
the circumstances, but answered, "My
son is tifty-six years OF age and the
right of final decision regarding his
medical treatment can no! be taken
from him."
The Progressist Journal is inclined to
defend DR.. Mackenzie and points to the
fact that there were eight doctors con-
cerned in the case who did not sign the
report criticising DR.. Mackenzie.
The Bundesraih has prepared reply
TO the proclamation Of the Emperor at
the time OF his accession to the throne.
The reply expresses the fullest sym
pathy with the principles enunciated by
the Emperor, and promises TO give his
policy the heartiest support.
