| people in the doomed train. The en-.

sustained fracture in his right hand.
The fireman was uninjured.
A moment more and the heavy freight
crashed into the passenger train. The
noise was heard for miles. For g mo-
ment after there was the silence of
death and there commenced the most
frightful cries ever heard. The means
of the dying, the piteous cries for help

sengers and the mutilated and bloody re-
mains of the dead seen through the frag-
ments of the debris formed a scene of
horror no pen can picture. The freight
engine had gone clear through day
coach in the rear, through the sleeper
and buried itself in the second sleeper,
the third car of the train.
There was nothing left of the train
but mass of debris, and the sides of
the third stood about the monster en-
gine as if to hold it prisoner and prevent
further damage. This scene lasted but
moment when tongues of flame sprang
up here and there, and soon the whole
wreck was wrapped in fire. 1t was a
sickening sight. A score of imprisoned
passengers in the debris, the flames
lighting up the place with lurid glare,
only served to intensity the horror with
out aiding the rescuers.
AS soon as the dazed passengers in the
other cars recovered themselves, they
rushed to the rescue of their unfortunate
companions. The Ere department was
Immediately teieph0ned, and everyone
in that end of the little city rushed to
the scene of the disaster. Hundreds
soon surrounded the wreck, but to little
purpose. The awful ruin had been
wrought, and little was left to do but to
secure and care for the remains of the
dead.

dumb, and, without further ceremony,
opened fire from his revolver on the lad,
wounding him badly i'll two places.
Howe then turned from the road into
the woods, and jumping from the
buggy, abandoned 1T and took to the
bush. That night and the next day fifty
men searched for him, and late at night
the sheriff and deputy captured him
and quietly lodged him in the Peters
burg Jail, to keep the citizens from mob
bing him.
The lad died of his wounds on the
3Oth. and the excitement over his killing
grew more intense than ever. A mob
was organized to hang Howe, made up
of many of the best citizens of Peters
burg and vicinity. Wednesday night
was the date fixed for the hanging, but
the sheriff gained knowledge of what
was intended, secretly slipped Howe ont
of Jail, and took him to the Jefferson
vile penitentiary, in which he wa
placed for safe keeping He will be tried

 thew and the twentieth verse: ''One thing
 thou lackest."

 during the past four years in the Church
 of the Messiah spoke feelingly and point
 edly concerning the many difficulties that
 are always encountered in carrying on the work of the master. He also alluded to the work contemplated for the future and looked forward to still greater achieve ments in church work. In closing he ex- horted his hearers to examine their hearts that personally nothing should be lacking
 in their Christian life and conduct to hin der the good work, but see to it that equipped with the whole armor they move on from victory to victory in the blessed work for God and humanity.
 In the evening a young peoples service was held in the church. William z. Bart lett presided. The service consisted of singing by the choir and audience, scrip
 ture reading and brief addresses. On Wednesday evening a reception will be rendered to the pastor, on which occasion number of New Haven pastors will be present and make brief addresses.

 NEW YORK, october 31. Chicago Gas was the feature to-day, rising 2 per cent. to 57, and ended at the highest.
 Van Emburgh and Atterbury bought 2,000 shares. Day & Heaton also took round amounts. The street guessed that the rival Economic con- cern had been knocked out, but insiders said there was no immediate basis for the movement except the covering of shorts.
 Richmond Terminal shares were not affected by rumors that change of management was impending. President Inman, it is thought, may take the position of chairman of the board of di- rectors, with strong practical railroad manager as president. Nothing, however, has been de- cided
 Aside from the rise in Chicago Gas and Q de- cline of per cent in Illinois Central and 11a in Tennessee Coal and Iron the net changes of the day are virtually nil The bank statement, while showing very slight decrease of reserve, was favorable. The banks hold about $4O0,000 more cash than they had a week ago, and the decrease of surplus is due to the fact that the amount of reserve required is increased by greater deposit liabilities.
 Sales at the board amounted to 7S 433 shares, against 1S5 753 yesterday and 232,5S1 on Thurs day.
