ACCIDENT ON THE LAKE ROAD.

The way freight train going west
was derailed about mile this side
of Wolcott Thursday noon Eight
empty freight cars left the track and
were smashed up some. Both the
afternoon passenger trains had to
have their passengers carried by but
the track was repaired before night,
the wrecked cars being tipped over
and left till Saturday, when they
were removed. The damage to roll
ing stock was slight and it is not
known what derailed the train unless
it was a broken car wheel.

Mr. Mills comes here from Read
ing, Mass, where he has been con-
Quoting meetings for two weeks
past We take from the Reading
Chronicle the following paragraph
Mr. Mills is in all senses of the
word a man among men, and shows
breadth of knowledge that mani
tests itself by an interest in the af-
fairs of common people as well as be-
ing companion of the most cultured
and scholarly. In his method he is
both conservative and aggressive,
always maintaining profound regard
for the church and the ministry, and
carefulin his utteranceS not to offend
unnecessarily those who might differ
with him in their convictions, or fail
to accept the truths presented. He
presents the Gospel in a clear and
very forcible manner. Emerson has
said that "words have weight when
there is q man behind them," and
such has been the case with all who
have made the acquaintance and
listened to the words of Rev. B. Fay
Mills.

Special to John III. Oakley.l
NEW YORK, August 9-The stock market
this morning got blow from an unexpected
quarter. No one gave much heed to the vague
rumors that trouble between the New Y ork
Central and its employees might lead to astrike;
therefore, when it became known that this
great property had been practically tied up by
the action of the Knights of Labor, q break in
stocks became inevitable. There is not much
New York Central held on margins.
Added to the bad effect of the New York
Central episode came AMI exceptionally bad
bank statement, one that Is surprise even to
bears on stocks and bulls on money. The loss
on actual coin was about SO. 5O0, 200, and the
loans were increased $500, 900. The loss has
come from treasury absorptions owing to ex-
export silver imports, and. what is exceptional
so early in the season as this, q large demand
for currency by the West.
The next and last bearish influence on stocks
was sharp advance In grain and reports of
frost in the West. The seasons seem to be get
