EVERY ELEMENT OF HORROR.
A Fatal Railway Wreck, Followed By q
Destructive Fire.

Jas. Hughes, a telegraph operator
whose home is in Shelbyvile, Mo-, lost
his life in an accident which occurred on
the Union Pacific railway eight miles east
of Carbon at IL o'clock Thursday night
Every element of a frightful catastrophe
entered into the fatality, and it is a mat
ter of congratulation that but one man
met a violent death.
Train %, an east bound freight, had
halted to cool a hot box. Two box cars
ard the caboose rested on a bridge ten
feet above the ground. In the coach
were two or three trainmen, the unfortu.
nate Hughes and another operator. his
travelling companion.
The conductor dispatched a fagman
with colored lights and torpedoes to the
rear, and Joined his crew in repairing the
running gear of the disabled car. They
had been working but a few minutes
when the headlight of train No. 20, also
IN east bound freight, appeared around a
curve. The engineer of the moving
train, VIM. Nottage, either failed to OBJ
serve or disregarded the fagman sent out
by No. 22's conductor. The moving train
Numbered along at undated speed and
crashed into the caboose with terrific
force. The latter and two freight cars
were ditched. A fire ensued and the
bridge, caboose and two freight cars were
consumed in the flames. Eye witnesses
describe the scene as a terrible one. The
night was cold and dark and aid far away.
Hughes was asleep when the accident
occurred. His right leg was broken and
left foot crushed and he was severely in
iured internally. He survived but a few
minutes after reaching Carbon.
Engineer Nottage sustained slight
bruises by jumping from his cab. His
fireman remained and was uniniured.
Brakeman G. Isam escaped with a
sprained ankle.
A wrecking train in charge of Chief
Dispatcher Downing was sent from Lara
mie to the scene with all possible haste.
The workmen cleared the track and con-
struced a temporary bridge in six hours.
Of course the company will Lold an Of
fetal investigation and place the blame
for the accident where it properly belongs.
1t would be unwise and in bad taste to
vouchsare an opinion on the subject at
this time.
Hughes remains will be inferred at Car
bon. A coroner's jury returned a verdict
which attaches no blame to the company
for his death.

At the Providence opera house last
evening the Days, Thomas and Daniel,
presented their latest attraction for popu-
lar favor, entitled Upside Dozen, the joint
production of Thomas A. DAILY, author of
Vacation, and John j. Mentally, OF the
Boston Herald. The play is a go from
start to finish, and its bristling activity Is
its chief charm. With it the Days and a
clever company are enabled to show their
individual capabilities to advantage and to
the pleasure of the audience. Like all
plays written for a specific purpose, Upside
Do,on is merely a peg or a number of
pegs on which to hang the particular
talents of the several members of the COM
pany to advantage, and in this respect it
is a success.

EARE. PLEASE.
The Cheyenne Street Railway t
Again be Operated.

9'Sth ~
Again be Operated.
After a careful canvass OF the situation
the street car company has decided to
again operate the Cheyenne line. Labor
ers are placing the track in shape and the
cars will again appear next Monday or
Tuesday. The company made arrange
ments for the resumption of operations at
a special meeting held a few days before
Christmas, but for private reasons kept
the matter quiet until yesterday. The
stockholders are convinced that a street
car line here is a necessity. 1t is demanded
by north side residents, and unless the
shadows of coming events are deceptive
will soon receive a patronage that will
truely astopish the natives. The
handsome cars have been in a
storeroom for nearly ten months and
their temperance will crafty all. The
Ogden Street Railway company was re-
Gently discouraged in o~vertures for the
purchase of the Cheyenne cars. The
Magic City's street railway is here to stay.
The track is a perfect n and the rolling
stock the finest in the west. The latter is
of home manufacture, too.
The street car line will be extended with
the thawing of the earth. There will be
a branch to the fair grounds and feeders
in other directions. Routes have not yet
been selected.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, CHEYENNE,
Wyo., Dec. 81, 1SSS.-Hon. Herman
Claiche, Cheyenne, Wyo,-DEAR SIR
l am in receipt of your letter of the 18th
inst. acknowledging the receipt of ap-
pointment and commission as territorial
bank examiner, under the law of 1888.
After discussing the question of the want
of power under the law to make it effec-
tive or operative. by reason of the omis-
sion of a clause compelling every banking
institution in the territory, aside from the
national banks, to comply with the re-
quirements and provisions thereof; you
desire to defer the execution of your bond
until the law in question has been submit
ted to the proper law officer of the terri
tory.
The question was by me submitted the
day your letter was received, and the re-
ply Of the attorney general confirms your
position that the law is imperative. The
following is the reply of the attorney
general on the point:
The law creating the Office of bank
examiner was evidently drawn with the
intention of throwing a safeguard around
depositors, but unfortunately it was not
drawn to meet the emergency. The bank
examiner under said law would only have
a right to examine the books OF such in
situations Us came into existence under
the provisions of said act, being chapter
SS of the session laws OF 1888; and such
institutions having been in existence, who
would avail themselves of the provisions
of said act as defined in section As of sub
division 3 OF the same, but he would have
no " to go into any private bank, or
any other bank and demand the examIna-
ton defined by law, which is not organ
lied under the provisions of said act, or
has:not availed itself of the same"
As no banking institution in the terri
tory in existence when the law took
effect has awaited itself OF the provisions;
and as no banking institution has been
organized under the law since it came in
to existence, it is pretty clear that these
institutions prefer to remain outside of the
law. and there seems to be no power to
bring them in. Every good citizen must
regret the failure of the law as a safe
guard to depositors and every person do
ing business with the banks, as it was
clearly the intention of the legislature
to provide for an examination by a com
petent and unbiased accountant, of all
the doings Of each territorial bank as a

THAT BAD LAW.
Why the Territorial Bank Examiner
Has Nothing to Do.
The Legislature Enacted a Discre-
,tionary Statute.
An Opinion Submitted by the Attor-
ney General.

1t is unnecessary that a diagram accom-.
pany the correspondence herewith repro
dueed. 1t followed the appointment of
II. Glafcke as territorial bank examiner:
CHEYENNE, Wyo., Dec. 10, 1885,
Hon. Thomas Moonlight, Governor of
Wyoming Terr1torl-SR: l have the
honor to acknowledge the receipt of my
commission as territorial bank examiner,
and would herewith tender my thanks for
this favor you have had the kindness to
confer upon me.
Being somewhat familiar with the law
under which this appointment was made,
l have sought information regarding its
operation from the territorial auditor and
have discovered that up to date it has
been wholly imperative in 30 far as it re-
lates to the examination of territorial
banks and banking institutions by the
bank examiner. The intent of the legis-
lative assembly evidently was to enact a
law which would protect the general pub
lie, and especially depositors, against
losses entailed by unsafe banking institu
lions, and to provide a method for the
proper supervision and control OF the
banking business of this territory. except
ing banks under the control of the general
government. While it is to be presumed
that this was the intention of the legisla-
tive assembly, the law referred to signally
fails to provide, in express terms, the
necessary means to make it effective by
the, omission of a clause compelling every
territorial banking institution to comply
with it. Such a provision is found in the
banking laws of various states and terri
tories, The law passed by the tenth leg
~islative assembly leaves it to the discretion
of the territorial banks whether they will
comply with the provisions of this law or
not. (Sec. As, chap. SS, session laws of
