HAMILTON, Ont., April 2S.-A ter
ribIe railway accident occurred on the
Grand Trunk RAILWAY, about a mile
east of this city, AZ an early hour this
morning, resulting in serious loss or
life and great destruction of property.
The limited express from Chicago, due
here az 6 30 A. NJ, when running al the
rate OF sixty miles an hour jumped the
track as the engineer was in the act o:
slackening the speed on his approach
TO Hamilton Junction. The accident
occurred while rounding a curve in
deep cutting known as Junction Cut,
just before reaching the switch at "H,"
where through trains from Toronto
leave the main line
The train, which was heavily loaded
J with pc ssengers, WAS made up of AL en-
CINE, baggage car, two passenger
! coaches and two sleepers, and as it left
/ the rails The cars were hurled with ter
rife force against the light flint walls OF
/ the cutting, resulting in the smash be
| ing simply iudescribable. As the en-
1 gine left the track the engineer and
| firemen jumped, both miraculously es~
Gaping almost uniDjured. The baggage
| car was in a strange way separated
/ from the rest of the train and thrown
on the opposite track. The occupants
were MANNED probably for life.
No sooner had the accident occurred
than the wreck took ire and then en-
sued scene of horror that made the
strongest hearts quail and blanched the
bravest cheek. From out heap OF
| blazing ruins came the frenZied shrieks
of men. women and children for aid,
while amid these could be heard the
| heart~rendeTing groaDs of the wounded,
] h., in pnnln
make no effort TO escape the fast ap-
preaching flames.
The engineer gave the alarm of the
accident at the Junction yards, quar-
of a mile away, and soon brought the
many hands at work to the rescue. The
news, too, flashed to this city and im-
! mediately al ambulance train with up-
wards of a dozen OF HamiltOn's physi-
clans set out for the scene OF the disas-
! ter.
The work of rescue was of the
hardest kind, as the heat from the burn
ing cars was so intense that IL was only
with the greatest difficulty the rescu-
ers coald approach, and many were
badly burned in their efforts 70 save.
The first TWO removed from the wreck
were killed outright, but their corpses
| were untouched b 2 the fire. a woman
was then taken out with both her legs
broken aud she was otherwise injured.
| Then two girls, two men and a boy
were got out of the wreck OF a first
class coach, ali more or less severely
burned. The corpse of middle>aged
man, burned almost TO a cinder, was
tax u out, and then sixteen more in
the same condition, and search was
made of the wreck, but no more bodies
were found, but it was not at all
through, as the iron work of the cars
being red hot, could not be handled
So lar nineteen are known TO be killed
and twenty injured, four OF whom are
thought fatally.

THERE is a large Irish immigration
now going on TO the Argentine Confed>
GRAFTON. The Buenos Ayres papers,
judging from the arrivals at that port
since January last, make the estimate
nearly 100 600 Irishmen will be added
TO the Argentine population this year.
The republic comprises a territory OF
], ,25O, 600 square miles, while its people
number only 4, 500 900, so that there is
an abundance OF room for all the i'm )
migrants that can be obtained from
Ireland or elsewhere, The great ma
jority of the Irish settlers in the Ar
geuJine Republic are farmers or farm
laborers, and 1t is for the purpose OF
tiIing the soil that they go there. The
Government has established a liberal
land policy, under which farms can be
obtained by immigrants upon easy
terms. Most of the land Of The repHb-
lie is fertile The climate OF the greater
part Of it is temperate aud healthy the
government is pacific, and the political
institutions are remarkable for their
freedom. There are good reports of
the conditions of the Irish immigrants
who are dndiug places OF abode there.

Assembly of Arizona, which has Just
adjourned, has sent to the Treasury
Department. for deposit in the con-
science fund, the sum of S22 50, being

He also states that he once acted as
clerk of the Legislature, and received
for his service S640; but while perform

IN the State Senate last week Senator
Ross declared that the Republican par
ty has deserted It's bantling, the Prohi-
bitiOn amendment. Senator Cooper's
attempt at a reply TO Senator Ross,
says the Harrisburg Patriot, was simp-
ly begging of the question. When a
political party deliberately by caucus
action forces An issue before the people
which otherwise could not have been
made it does it sffirm atively not mega
tivelY. or indIffeIently, as Senator
Cooper pretends. According to his
logic the Republican party. when it
submitted the amendment to the fed>
eral constitution abolishing negro
slavery, did no commit itself TO the
amendment but simply left the matter
with the people. Yet Senator Cooper's
party will never cease glorifyiDg itself
as the liberstor or the negroes. II the
Republican party did not mean to
abolish the liquor traffic when il sub
mitted the prOhibitory amendment it
did not mean to abolish negro slavery
when IL submitted the Thirteenth
amendment OF the federal constitution.
The Republican leaders had better be a
little more consistent and little less
cowardly.

and Mr.. Vincent stated that Contractor Gibson

make those repairs. Col. Smith, Alderman
Bryant and Mr.. Vincent submitted a unani-

his contract, legally bound to furnish inside
blinds for the new school building, but that as
he was assured by Mr. Vincent that inside
blinds made no portion of the contract, that
the board should relieve Mr. Gibson from
furnishing blinds. The report was adopted
Inc question then arose as to what amount
should be paid to Mr.. Gibson. 1t appeared
that Mr.. Gibson's bill was for "S10.279.s7 per
contract" and the clerk said the contract price
was $3.50. After some conversation relative

"I MUST HAVE HELPy
Deluded Mrs. Fox Dies I'm Agony Under
the Care of a Faith-healer.

Syracuse n. Y, Telegram to New York Herald
The funeral Of Mrs. Royal Z. Fox took place
at her home. No. 80 Erie street, Thursday alter
noon. Mrs. Fox died Wednesday. The respon-
sibility for the fatal termination of her illness
is laid by public opinion at the door Of what is
called Christian science. Mrs. Fox had been
subject TO bilious attacks for several wears.
When the first one came on DIR. jay w. Shell
don was called. When the patient had begun
to recover she was left to the charge Of DIR. Z.
II. Flint. Mrs. Fox was TO some extent be-
lever in Christian science at that time, and her
husband was, as he is yet, every firm in the
faith" to quote an expression used by one OF
the friends of the family. During a recur-
renee OF her illness, some weeks ago, Mrs Fox
relied entirely upon Christian science, Mrs f.
I; Bates attending her, and she got better.
She was told then that, having once been cured
by Christian science, she would be free from
the malady thereafter, and she entirely be-
heved it.
FAITH CURE DID NOT HELP HER
Last Saturday the disease came on again with
unusual severity. Mrs Bates was out of town,
and another apostle of Christian science-Mrs
Norris-was called. Mrs. Fox's daughters
urged that physician be called, but their en-
treaties went for nothing. Mr.. Fox had I'M
bounded confidence in Christian science az o
curative power and felt sure his wife would
again recover. The patient il is said suffered
terribly, and frequently called out in her agony,
Il must have help! / must have helpr' She
was told that all she needed was courage, and
she would be sure TO triumph over the malady.
Mrs. Fox took scarcely any nourishment during
the attack. DIR. Flint was summoned at the
last moment.
DOCTOR CALLED TOO LATE
"When entered the house." he said, mrs.
Fox had just passed away. The body was still
warm, but there were no signs of life I was
called to make out the death certificate, sup
pose. / assigned as the cause of death infam-
nation of the liver" DIR. Flint expressed the
opinion that if Mrs. Fox had been allowed her
own way she would have had the services of Q
physician. One of the neighbors said that the
body Immediately after death was ''all twisted
up" its position leading her to believe that
Mrs: Fox was writing in agony when she
died.
