4 horrible accident occurred yesterday

The young man had been engaged
during the afternoon in arranging switches
for the numerous trains which went from
the main line to the wharf. The switch
engine was just beyond the Northeastern
Railroad crossing, coming into the city.
when the unfortunate accident occurred.
Beard had opened the switch and as is
usual. but very unsafe, wanted to get on
the engine and ride to the next switch.
In the attempt to get on the rear end of
the engine, which was at the time move
iny backward. he missed his hold and
fell On the rail, and the engine went
crashing over his body. The engine
could not be stopped in time TO prevent
the accident.
AS soon as it was possible the engi-
ncer and conductor hurried to Beard to
give whatever assistance was possible,
but life was extinct and help useless.
The head was lying beside the mangled
mass Of flesh, and an arm had been
severed from the body.
The accident occurred about 1I:45 p. m.

Texas Towns at Wa.

WACO, Tex, Sept. 4.-The town of
Marlin still maintains an attitude OF
rebellion against the authority Of Gov
ernor Ross and has refused to abolish
the quarantine placed against Waco.
4 LAWYER Of this city, who was en-
ployed to secure an injunction IN a
cause involving half million. was
forcibly thrust upon the cars and driven
off, and the corporation against which
the injunction was brought gained an
important advantage. He has filed a
suit against the authorities of Marlin
for halfa million dollars damage.
The commerce OF " AGO is suffering
terrible on account OF the quarantine,
the cotton trade being directed away.
Governor Ross says that nc will break
the quarantine. and Texas rangers arc
now within tiye hours ride OF the town.

A Big Failure in New York.

New YORK. September 4.-Sawyer,
Wallace & Co., exporters of breadstuffs
and cotton and dealers in leaf tobacco,
at 19 Broadway made a general assign
ment today to Marshal Ayrs without pre-
ferences. The assignment was filed short
ly before the closing of the county clerks
office, and the news when it reached
the street created great sensation. The
cause is the losses the firm have sustain
ed IN their foreign option business. The
firm has branches in nineteen or twen-
ty European cities.
In a pork deal last January the firm
is said to have sustained losses of 81. .OOO.'
900. Claims for these losses against
European spectators are among the
nominal assets. 1t is estimated that the
sum total Of the nominal assets will reach
sl,l75, 900, among which are incloded
100000 lost in the pork deal. II
is believed that they have protected their
interests in this country, and that their
chief losses, which may reach 81, 500
900, will be in London, and mainly on
their pork dealings. But their business
has many ramifications.

BLACKsBURG, S. c., Sept. 3.-On
Tuesday morning young man named

agent for some washing machine, was
found in his bed. by D. NJ. Williams,

he was stopping, in an unconscious state:
On inquiry. 1t was found that he had
pawncd his hat for ten cents and had pur-
chased that amount Of laudanum from
DR.. Fcwell's drug store. The supposltion
is that he took the laudanum for the
purpose of ending his life, as a bottle
supposed to be the one purchased from
the drug store was found near his win
dow empty. It seems that he had taken
the laudanum and thrown the bottle out
of the window for the purpose Of hiding

Fifty Thousand Dollars Burnt Up.

HIAvATuA. Kas., Sept. 3.~The worst
fire ever known in this city broke out at
O'Clock this morning IN William IIor-
near's livery stable andin less than three
hours 1t had destroyed two and a halt
blocks in the business centre of the city,
causing a loss ofat least $50. 900.
The greatest loss was the First Ma
tional Bank building, owned by Con-
grcs ssman Merrill. The vault, contain
Ing $4,000 in currency and many valua-
bic books and papers, gave way under the
intense heat and its contents were
entirely destroyed.
For over two hours furious wind
from the North drove the fire South
ward, but about O'Clock the wind died
down. There is only one fire engine IN
the city. and should the wind rise again
the whole Of the business portion OF the
city Will be wiped out. At 3 a. m. the
fire was still raging. The fire engine
had a small stream on the buildings
near the Hatch block. but it is doubtful
if this block can de saved.
The destruction so far includes the
First National Bank building, the Odd
Fellows building and two Of the best
livery stables in the city.

Snrprisin~ Testimony.

Many physicians who have examined
into the merits of B. b. 3. (Botanlc
Blood Balm), have been confronted
with testimony which they deemed sur
prising, and thus being convinced OF
it's wonderful efficacy, have not failed
to prescribe it in their practice as oc-
casion required.

"Eor two years my wife was a great
sufferer. Sl;illful physicians did her

The passage Of the Congcr lard bill by
the House of Representatives has placed
the cotton seed oil industry ofthe South

ton in this industry is now very en-
barrassing and the manufacturers OF cot
ton seed oil are all at sea. The trade is
completely demoralized. There is now

AMOVEMENT AGAINST COTTON.
Rumors;of IL Combine in England to Force
q Decline.

ATLANTA, Ga. September At IS
announced that instructions have been
sent bv English manufacturers to their
agents in this country to buy no more
cotton at the :ruling prices, or no
more than is required for Immediate
consumption by the mills. Many OF
the New England mills have also agreed
to- curtail their takings for the present
The OBJECT OF both is to force a decline
of the staple. They are calculating
on very large crop in the United
States and fair crops in other cotton
raising countries, and that the supply
will soon be greater than the demand
at present prices.
The British estimates of the crop of
the United States largely exceed seven
million bales. Even if it should reach
this amount, coming in as it does upon
a comparatively short stock Of the old
crop, there is good reason to believe
that the increased demand for the
worlds consumption will keep pace
with it. as it has done of late years.
But the manufacturers, by concert,
have the power to force a decline, un-
less money is furnished in plenty to buy
the crop. A week or two ago 1t locked
as if the monetary centres would be
strained to furnish money to move the
crops this fall. But the commercial re-
ports and the statement OF the associa-
ted banks for last week encourage the
hope that the stringency in the money
market is Slackening. The banks
gained in their reserves for the first
time in several weeks, and the COM
mercial reports show increasing trade
and more confidence in business circles.
The suppression OF State banks OF
issue destroys the elasticity of the cur
rencey of the South, which formerly
helped materially to sustain the price
of cotton. Under the old State bank
system, the banks, though restricted
by law in the proportion of their paper
issues to their coin on hand, often had
out five or six dollars in paper to one
in coin in the cotton season, because
they had the cotton as security for their
issues-a security rs good and safe as
gold. But this elasticity has been de-
stroyed by the financial policy of the
Federal government, and it is clearly
duty which that government owes to so
large number of its producing people
as the cotton planters, to aid by all
means in its power in providing cir
culating medium sufficient to protect
so great an interest from stringency
in the money market and adverse COM
binations by buyerS.-Atlanta Journal

a DARING TRAIN ROBBERY.
How One Man Held up Il Train and Rob-
bed the Express.

"~>>
LOUISVILLE, Sept. 2.-The Louisville
and Nashville northhound train was
held up by masked robbers half mile
north OF Pensacola Junction early this
morning. The safe was taken from the
express car, but the extent Of the rob-
berry is not known.
The Courier Journal has this from
Mobile, Ala: THE Louisville and
Nashville cannon ball train. north
bound, was held up near Pensacola
Junction, forty miles above Mobile, by
robbers. who entered the express car
and compelled the messenger to turn
over the contents of his safe 1t is
not known at this time the extent of
the robbery. After securing the valu-
ables the robbers escaped to the woods.
The first news Of the robbery re-
ceived in Mobile by the railway Of
licials was very meagre. The train
was held up about Il half mile above
the junction. and people there knew
very little of what had happened, for
the train was delayed a few minutes
|
learning what had occurred.
Engineer Bob SiZer says that he was
pulling out of FlomatoH, and just us
the train, which is a through express
| from New Orleans. got under way, he
turned around and saw Il man standing
near him. Before he could ask 4 ques-
ton or lock twice two big revolvers
were in his face. lie was told to run
his train up to Escambia river bridge.
some miles distant, and stop on the
bridge. There was nothing left for
him to do but obey. and he did so.
"There the train stopped on the
bridge. The engineer was told to get
off his engine and he did so. Then the
rObber directed SiZer to so to the eX-
press car and force an entrance. The
robber putting Il heavy mallet in his
hand, SiZer did as directed, and burst
open the car doors. Express Messen-
ger Archie Johnson was standing in
his car, with pistol in hand, but seeing
Slzer, lowered it, The next minute he
was covered and told to lay down his
gun, and he obeyed Then the robber,
standing in the Car door, compelled the
messenger to open the safe and hand
him the money.
"While this was going on, the fellow
was standing in the door coolly looking
at his victim and firing first to one side
of the train and then to the other to
overawe the passengers and train crew:
When he got the money, the robber told
Sizer to follow him. The man showed
the way to the engine, bade SiZer pull
out, and with a parting shot and with
yells dashed off in the bushes and was
lost to sight.
"a posse has left Flomaton and an
other has left Mobile in pursuit of the
robbers.
Some surprise is expressed here that
the robbers selected this particular
train, as it is we'll known that other
trains carry most of the express money,
NO. 6, the robbed train, carrying very
little at any time and small amount
on this occasion.
1T is said Rube Burrows was recent
~ seen in Florida and there is a posi-
bility that he ordered the assembling of
his gang at Flomaton and joined them
there to superintend the proper con-
duct of the affair, but this robbery looks
more like the work Of the celebrated
Capt. Bunch"

Miss Simpsons Long Sleep.

MoNCToN,N. B., Sept. 4.--Etta Slmp-
son, aged seventeen years, went to sleep
week ago yesterday and has not yet
awakened or taken any nourlshment.
Miss Simpson has for some months had
mania for eating brown paper. and
would consume a large bag such as used
in grocery stores at a single meal. She
has eaten scores Of brown paper bags
and it is supposed this mania has some
thing to do with her illness. About a
year ago she slept for five days. but was
awakened while being bled by her mcdl-
cal attendant.
