On the Baltimore and ohio Road
 Vice President Morton Has Nar-

 was a Passenger Telescopes the One
 in Front of 1t-0ther Prominent Per-
 sons on Board the CoIlid1ag Train.
 BALTIMORE, April 26.-A collision between two passengers trains on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad near the foot of Howard street this morning, caused the injury of four men and endangered the life of Levi P. Morton, vice president of the United States, and large number of passengers. The accident occurred at the made by the tracks that lead to Locust Point, and those that lead to Washington. The colliding trains were the Philadelphia Express, which leaves Camden station at 1920 a. m., and train from Phila- delphia due at Camden station at 1885 8. m. The latter had on board considerable number of Odd Fellows who were to take part in the parade in this city to-day. Gov. Foraker, of Ohio, and members of his staff and Gen. Schofield and staff were also aboard. The men who were hurt were all employees of the road They were: Martin L. Milbourne, engineer, compound fracture of the right leg; William Fowler, newsboy, head cut; Henry Smith, baggage master, hurt 8OOuG Gu0 aEuS, w Ah0Ib, cuSAuScIp hurt about the stomach and breast. The train, which left Camden station at 1920, was drawn by engine 753 and consisted of a tender, two baggage cars, three passenger cars and the private car Anantha, which contained Vice President Morton ard party of about ten. The train from Philadelphia for this city was drawn by engine 805, and consisted of tender, baggage car and sever- al passenger cars. The locomotives were crushed into one another and engine S05 left the track. The first baggage car of the train on which Vice President Morton was passenger telescoped the second, going almost half way through it, the two cars leaving the track. The front platform of the first baggage car was also badly damaged and the fronts of both engines were mashed in. The Vice Presidents train had a few minutes before the accident occurred left Locust Point and was going slowly. Just as the engine started to turn the curve at the Y between Howard and Sharp streets the locomotive of the other train was seen coming on the same track at a rate of about five miles an hour. The crews of both trains saw the danger and the brakes were instantly put down, but hardly had this been done when the engines came together with a terrible crash. There was loud hiss ing of steam and the passengers in both trains were thrown from their seats and one or two were dashed to the floor of the car. The rod which connects the two rails of the switch was bent, and although the switch was properly turned, the tongue did not fit close- ly and allowed both trains to come on the same track.

NEARLY FATAL ACCIDENT.

The Limited Express on the Boston
 ana Albany RailroRd Crashes Into . Freight Train-The Passengers Are Severely shaken Up, Hut No One is Injured.
 SPRINGFIELD, April 26.-The Boston and Albany railroads usual good management had close call this evening. The limited express for New York, the pride of New Eng land railrosding, ran into freight train in the yard and had narrow escape from bad accident. It was the train which left Boston at D. m. and is due here at 6:29 A freight train which preceded the express regularly found choked when it reached the city and only part of the train could be slowed away on a siding. Several cars remained on the main track and the rear brakeman was sent back to signal the express. He waved his lantern vigorously and "Dr." Bracket, the engineer, put on the air brakes. The track and wheels were wet and the brakes failed to hold promptly so the engineer re- versed the locomotive, with such effect that both the cylinder heads were blown out. In this plight the train crashed into the freight, sending two empty oil-tank cars off the track and running the locomotives nose under the last car of the freight train. The the sum total of the accident, and the pass A train ran up from the station and took the passengers to the union depot.
 Those bound south were taken along at once, and the express followed later, on the time of the regular steamboat traia for New Haven. The mate to the limited, which left New York at p. m., was delayed half an hour by the blockade.

 Session-The BIll Establishing a
 Naval Reserve is Passed.
 PROVIDENCE, R. T., April 26.-The legisla- ture of 1Ss9-'S9 adjourned to-day with the usual formality and mock session in the lower branch. The bill to regulate the prac- tice of medicine was killed in the senate by indefinite postponement. A poll-tax bill was passed to collect the tax under the en- lsrged suffrage amendment to the eonstitu- tion. An effort was made in the senate to kill the bill establishing naval reserve in this State after the bill was reported from the committee on engrossed acts
 This step after the practical passage of bill is almost unprecedented and it took the friends of the bill off their feet, several of them voting to indefinitely postpone in or der that they might move to reconsider. On reconsideration Senator Thornley, of East Greenwich, the only active opposer of the naval reserve movement tried every scheme in legislative tactics including final to kill the bill, but it pessed as to
