 The list of pail bearers chosen for Bar num's funeral to-day consists of William H. Hincks, Dr. I. De Yer Warner, Curtis Thompson, the Hon. Nathaniel Wheeler, Rowland B. Lacy, James A. Bailey, Bern ard Peters of the Brooklyn Times, and Jerome Orcutt. Mir. Bailey and about sixty of the attaches of the big circus will attend the funeral. Madison Square gar den will be closed and no performance will be given. This, MT. Bailey says, will be the only way in which the show will | recognize it's loss. In talking of the mat ter he said "We found it impossible to 1 keep closed longer and at the same time | do right by the public" There will be | general suspension of business in Bridge port to-day. There will be short service | of prayer at Marina at o'clock which will be strictly private. At 2 o'clock the final l services, conducted by Rev. L. B. Fisher and Rev. Dr. Collyer will deliver the ad- dress and quartette will render seleo- tions. The long streamers of black and white bunting, in some places covering | the entire front of the handsonest build ! ings about town, show that the city is in grief The emblems of mourning that are | f-1lx I I outside, forming in many places huge frames for portraits of the great snowman and public benefactor, give the streets an air of sadness and seem to dispel much of l the usual noise and hustle about the city. | Owing to 8 misplaced switch freight train on the Housatonic road, which was being backed into the company's yard yes day, crashed into some empty passenger coaches standing on side track. The force of the collision drove the coaches
 through a high board fence and across Gold street, the forward car striking the
 brick tank-house of the Consolidated road, I,
 woman, Julia Hugeneh, aged twenty, was
 crossing the street at the time. She was
 knocked down by the forward car and instantly killed. Her head was severed
 from the body and she was otherwise
 mangled. Three cars were derailed. The
 coroner found that the accident was the
 result of the negligence of Nicholas
 Sagrine, an Italian switch tender. He was l arrested.
