CURED on the single track between Port
Costa and Martinez, near the coal bunk
ers of the Black Diamond Coal Company.
Inc Los Angeles express was going to-
ward the pier, and the gravel train was
carrying gravel for tho new San Ramon
branch, running toward Martinez. Owing
to double curve III the road, evidently
neither engineer saw the other train ap-
preaching until just before the collision.
The engines came together with terrible
crash, and both were badly damaged.
The mail car Of the express train was
smashed. No other cars of the express
train were damaged. Ten flat cars were
piled up.
William ]. Jordan, brakeman Of the
gravel train, was sitting in the cab with
the engineer, and was pinned down by

on Fire at Sea.

on Fire at sea.
SAN Francisco, June I5.-This morn
ing the British ship Clan Macfarlane,
Captain Ranlline, arrived in port. On
Saturday last the Macfarlane passed
the Valparaiso, about 500 miles from this
port. Reports are to the effect that the
Valparaiso signaled that she was on fire,
but how badly she was damaged or
whether the flames were still raging,
could not be learned.
The consigneeS of the vessel stated that
the Valparaiso carried q cago of 800
tons OF coal, but they knew nothing about
any fire on the vessel.
Captain Rankine made no mention of
the fire on the French ship to the con-
signees of his own vessel.
Tugs have been sent out to look after
the Valparaiso and render whatever as
sistance may be necessary.
Another report is to the effect that The
crew Of the Valparaiso were standing by
the matches attempting to eXtinguish the
1iames, and that all the pumps were
working.

Considerable scratching was done. The
voting was steady and quiet.
At midnight the vote, as far as counted,
indicates that w. S. Mason, the Citizens
candidate for Mayor, is elected by 1000
majority. The entire Citizens ticket is
undoubtedly elected by about the same
majority.

Carcasses of Horses Sold as Beef.

WASHINGTON, June 10. Secretary
Rusk heard recently that there were sew
eral concerns in New York engaged in
slaughJering horses and shipping the
meat TO Europe, where it is sold as beef.
i do not know how true this isl said he.
Il have just started an investigation and
have put two special agents on the case.
France is the only country that affords
market for horse-fesh, but if horse-fiesh

have the effect of injuring the sale of our
beef in European markets. II such a
thing is being done it is the duty of the
Agricultural Department to discover it
