HE SAVED THE TRAIN.
An Engineer Drives Through a Wreck
He Could Not Avoid.

He Could Not Avoid.
\ horrible catastrophe was averted
on the Lake Shore & Michigan South
ern Railroad on the 10Th, near Silver
Creek, Pa, through the bravery and
cool-neaded conduct of an engineer.
4 detached section of an east
bound freight train had been run

was thrown down on the westbound
track lust as No fast train was going
west Engineer John Burns, of Buffalo,
of the passenger train, was coming
down the hill at the rate of fifty
miles an hour; he saw truck ahead
and then a freight car. lie saw an
attempt to stop his train and jump would
sacrifice the lives of his $50 passengers.
His fireman had left him, and freight
cars mounted one another ahead. In a
fash of second Engineer Burns re-
solved to stand by his post,
and springing from his seat behind
the boiler, he put on every pound OF
steam, and opening his sand-box, so as
to get a tirmer hold on the track, the
iron monster Ed. Gallup gave a snort
and sprang forward, threw the truck
and cut through the freight car and 9th
er debris. Burns, with wonderful fortl-
1ult, nelu the ltNtT, anu, lne lnOHleHt
he had cleared the obstruction, re-
versed his engine and threw on the air
brake As the train entered the wreck,
the sides were torn out of three coaches.
The screams of women rose high above
the screeching of the steam. Al
though the Ed. Gallup was dismantled
brave Engineer Burns emerged from
the debris alive, but covered with scars
and bruises Stout-hearted men en-
braced the brave engineer Historically,
realizing that his heroism had saved
the train. Only one passenger was Sc
riouslv injured, and that was Mrs. Mary
Kane, of Denniston, O., who was IN the
smoker. Her injuries are internal, and
several ribs are broken. She was
placed in the Hamot Hospital at

SHOT THE CHIEF.
New Orleans the Scene of "a Midnight As
saSSination.

David c. Hennessy, chief of police of
New Orleans. was shot down by three
men late on the night OF the 18th, near
the corner of Basin and Girard streets.
He received four shots, one in the
stomach. which. il is believed will prove
fatal. Ills assailants, so far, are un-
known
lIennessy was going home from the
central station. He had turned into
GiraId Street when he was fired upon
iy party of men concealed in the
doorWays. He was wounded at the first
tire. hut as soon as he recovered from
his surprise he fired four shots The
tusilade attracted the neighbors. and
when they arrived only the wounded
chief was found. The number of wounds
he received leads to the conclu-
sion that his asSailants used
both pistols and sho1guns. He has
many slight wounds about the body in
addition 10 two severe wounds-one in
the abdomen and one through the
lungs. The clothing on the chiefs left
side was riddled with shot. but only a
few Of them had sufficient force to pen
citrate further. The attempted asSassi-
nation. il i supposed was the work OF
Italians. whose vendettas the chief ex-
pressed his determination to suppress.
Several arrests have been made.

A GREAT ARCHITECT DEAD.
A. Il. Mullett, Who Designed Many Gov
ernment Buildings.

ernnent BulldlnSs.
A. B. Muliett, famous as the govern
ment architect under Lincoln and
Grant, shot himself in the temple on
the night of the Goth, at his home on
PENNSYLVANIA Avenue and Twenty-fitth
Street, Washington. He has been re-
garded as half insane for many years,
and of late, since he lost his
claim against the government for
extra compensation for planning
the state, war and navy buildings his
mind has gone rapidly from bad to
worse. On the evening of his death he
was feeling poorly, and his wife went
down stairs to get him some beef tea.
She had barely reached the foot of the
stairs when she heard pistol shot,
and, rushing back, found her husband
gasping for breath, with the blood ooz-
ing from a wound in his head. A doc
tor was Immediately summoned, but
Mr.. Mullett died in a few minutes.
Later in the evening the coroner was
summoned and after an examination of
the body gave verdict of death from
suicide due to melancholia. The re-
mains of Mr.. Mullett will probably be
taken to Cincinnati for interment. The
funeral arrangements, however. will not
be settled definitely until Mrs. Mullett
who is at present in Kansas City.
Mr.. Mullctt was 56 years old, and was
very well known all over the country.
He was man of great activity, and
made his impress more lasting on the
public buildings of the United States
than any other man who ever held the
position of government architect. He
planned the New York and Chi
cago post-otfices, and upwards
Of fifty post-otlices and custom
houses in various parts of the
country. The only building of his III
Wisconsin is the post-ofiice in Madison.
He was an Ohio man who first attracted
attention by his work in Cincinnati.
Salmon p. Chase called him to Wash
ington in 1861, 10 take confidential
place in the treasury, and it was not
long before he became supervising
architect. Long used to using plenty OF
money in government employ he led
his private clerk often into
surprising expense. His most
conspicuous difficulty of late in this re-
spect was with eX-Surgeon-General
Hammond, for whom Mullett built a
huge house and sanitarium, SO big that
Hammond had to finish them out with a
mortgage of SI50,000 The little archi-
tect was intensely loyal and always a
warm party man. In spite of all stories
to the contrary he was scrupulousiy hon
est with government funds and lived
and died very poor.
Mr.. Mullett leaves family of five
children, four of whom are in Washing
ton and one in Kansas City. His moth
er, two brothers and two sisters also re-
side in Kansas City. Mr.. Mullett had a
severe attack of grip last winter from
which he still suffered. For the past
few months he had been at times de-
spondent and gloomy. He had built
several houses recently that he could
not dispose of and this preyed upon his
mind. Mrs. Mullett is completely pros
trated by the severe shock and is un-
der medical treatment.
