the execution of Loppy fully confirms what had
been made known previously regarding the latest
application of the new method of capital pun

Macdonald and Ward, death in this case was
painless land instantaneous. There were four

Boss" Croker was in an embracing mood last
night. On the strength of the action of the
Saratoga Convention he sets up the claim that
there are and can be no Democrats in Newly Orli
except Tammany Democrats; and SO he has in
vited all Democrats to take part in the coming
Tammany primaries. Fortunately, it is in evi-
dence that there are few members Of that party
in New York who have not yet bowed the knee
to the Wigwam The next Tammany General
Committee will not represent the local Democracy
in its entirety any more than the present one
does.

Two more bad railroad accidents have Oc-
Cured within the last thirty-six hours, not un-
like in several respects, but with wide differ
ence as to their cause. The wreck near Lima,
Ohio seems TO have been due to broken rail,
over which part OF the train passed in safety.
The fast express on the Central Railroad, which
crashed into freight train at Fishkill, was run
ming at high speed to make up lost time. The
engineer, who was one of the victims took all
the blame on himself saying that he did not
look for the signal until he was too close to ii
to stop his train. The human element in Sc
curing safety on the rail was never more forcibly
exemplfed.

ANXIOUS ABOUT THEIR DEPOSITS.

The Kingston Bank Onicials Hope to with
stand the Run.
KINGSTON, n. Y, Oct. 5.-Many people came
into town by rail and wagon this morning from
all directions to see about their deposits
in the three savings banks. Those having
money in the Ulster county institu-
ton, which has been plundered by its
managers. have LITTLE hope of recovering their
money. Those having deposits in the Kingston
Savings Bank and the Rondout Savings Bank
will have to wait sixty days to find out whether
they can draw their money or not, as both
those concerns have posted notices taking ad-
vantage OF the law in that respect
Crowds OF depositors are in line at each bank
with passbooks in hand, waiting their turn to
give notice of withdrawal. The managers hope,
however, to be able to restore confidence by
showing the sound condition Of the institu-
tions.
They have received remittances from ALBANY
and elsewhere. which they rely on to carry them
through the day at least 1t is reported from
Newpaltz and Saugerties that runs are threat
ened on the savings banks at those places. Tho
sixty days notice will be demanded if runs
occur there.
Ostrander and Trumpbou- were arraigned
today and withdrew their demand for an exam
ination OF the charges Of wrecking the Ulster
County Savings Institution. They were re-
manded to jail TO await the action of the grand
jury.
Troy, NY, Oct 5.-N. E. Brodhead of Kings
ton has been appointed temporary receiver OF
the Ulster County Savings Institution with
bond of $3.50, 900. An injunction has also been
granted restraining depositors and creditors
from attaching the assets of the bank.
