A South American Train Disaster Cost

New YORK, March 27.-A correspondent
at Rio JaneriO sends an account of fatal
accident on the railway running from
San Francisco to TiSnador, 14O miles
south. The agent for the Baldwin Loco
motive works Of Philadelphia was showing
the officials of she road new engine and
left PirahauS to initiate the manager of
the road, the master mechanic, treasurer,
secretary, chief clerk, engineer and two
liremeR, and for the purpose OF making
practical test Of the new machine all
were in the locomotive cab or on the
tender.
They had proceeded only a kilOmeter
from Pirahaus. when on rounding a curve
where the embankment was close 20 a
rayine, the locomotive suddenly left the
track and rolled down the bank, which, at
this point, was seventy feet high. Sheel-
merdne, the agent, was badly injured
Beside him lay the dead body of the engi-
neer, crushed and mangied, and the
master mechanic. who was badly cut
about the head, but alive. The bodies Of
the other occupants of the engine were
lying below or near the engine. Some Of
them were frightfully crushed and all
were dead.
Sheelmerdine was arrested and thrown
into vile dungeon, outside Of which a
frantic mob howled for his lie. After
enduring much torture diplomatic CORES
poDdeRce finally brought about his re-
lease with half-hearted apologies.

greeted by the barking Of the settlers

When the Whitecaps saw he was not

house, declaring they would raze it to the
ground. Duncan then came forth and
began to demonstrate. His wife came TO
his defense and cndeavored to pacify the
mob, but In the heated discussion which
followed several shots were fired at the
deienSclcSs man, one going through his
heart and another penetrating the spine.
The men then rode away. Duncan was

small but timely reinforcement turned the
