[By Telegraph TO the Evening Journal
ERIE, Pa, Aug. 6.-The officials of
the Lake Shore decline to give any infor-
nation regarding the wreck which
occurred near Erie last night, but tho
United Press correspondent has learned
the following facts:
The disaster took place at Harbor
Creek, several miles from Erie The
engine of freight train broke down and
before a fagman could be sent back, pas
senger train No. g. which was due at
Buffalo at 1.45 A. m, rounded the curve
at top speed and crashed into it,
wrecking the engine, baggage car, one
passenger coach and a sleeping car
besides several freight cars.
The engineer and fireman of the pas
senger train were instantly killed One
passenger Stephen Perry, of indianapolis,
was seriously, and a number of others
slightly hurt
The scenes in the cars, following the
crash are described as fearful notably
among the occupants of the sleepers,
who were thrown out of their berths
Efforts were made by some to crawl
through the windows Of the wrecked
cars and slight injuries from cuts
resulted. The occupants of the buffet
car had a miraculous escape, the car
being totally wrecked. The Pullman car
Dexter was partially wrecked
Wrecking trains were sent to the
scene and it was cleared this morning
Physicians from the surrounding
country are in attendance and every
thing is being done for the relief of the
injured The bodies of the unfortunate
engineer and fireman will be removed to
their late homes at Buffalo. Both men
were on the engine when she struck the
freight, not having time to jump for
their lives.
PTTTsBURG, Aug. Cat o'clock this
morning aheadlong collision between two
freight trains occurred at Indian creek,
four miles east Of Connellsville on the
B & o. Two of the trainmen were
fatally hurt and two others badly in
jured and several seriously. Disobedi-
ence of train orders is given as the cause
of the accident.

She spent Restless Night, But II
Slightly Improved.
Loon LAKE, Sept. ia very slight
change for the better was noticeable in
the condition of Mrs. Harrison during
the morning. DIR. Gardner made an ex-
animation at an early hour, and found
that there had been no large accumula-
; tion of the watery matter in the thoraic
cavity, and he decided that another tap
ping would not be necessary.
The fluid sometimes collects very rap
idly, and it is liable to fill the cavity in
two or three hours. To prevent fatal
results from this source requires con-
slant watching, and DIR. Gardner keeps
almost constantly near the room of Mrs.
Harrison. Greater danger is now threat
ened from the filling of the thoraic cav
ity than from any other source.
Mrs. Harrison passed restless night
but she appeared in better condition in
the morning than she has for the past
several days. DIR. Gardner will make
no prediction as to the probable outcome
OF the disease from which his patient is
suffering. Mrs. Harrison, he says, is in
an extremely critical condition and fur
ther than that he viii say nothing.

was at Detroit--the color line will not

A Washington Physician Says 1t Is
Impossible for Mrs. Harrison
to Live. =
A Plain Description Of Her Malai,

From It.
The Loon Lake Report Says She Spent
Restless Night Bnt Is Slightly

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-"1he recov-
cry of Mrs. Harrison is impossible" said
one of the leading physicians of Wash
tugton.
''Of course, her physicians will not
acknowledge this fact without re5erva-
tions, bat the president and the people
should know the actual condition of the
wife Of the president can explain it
to you very simply. Mrs. Harrison had
tuberculosis of the right lung and sub
acute pleurisy, with rapid effu-
sion of water. Now, the
pleura is sereous membrane. It is
like double sack, and each separate
pleura encloses lung In this case the
right pleura is filling with water. 1t is
sack of two thicknesses, and between
its serous walls there is an accumula-
tion Of water. AS the pleura swells it
presses upward upon the lung and
causes suffocation. The right apex Of
the lung is hardening. The apex of the
lung is under the collar bone.
1T In supplied with less blood
than the lower parts of the lung,
and, consequently, less nutrition.
1t Is the weakest point. The pressure of
fluid in the pleura prevents expansion OF
the lung and frequently causes sudden
collapse Of the lung. Tapping the pleura
releases the accumulated fluid, and re-
ieves the lung. But every tapping is
traumatic or surgical shock to the pa
tient., The loss of blood each time
weakens her. These tapping are only
made when 1t is certain that the patient
will die without such relief, The result
Is only to prolong life few hours. The
unfortunate lady is now in such con-
dition that her recovery is absolutely
impossible"

STAR TINE AND SUN TIME.

The Way Astronomers Find Out from
the Stars When It Is Noon.
The time for sending out the noon
signal from Washington is the instant
the sun crosses the seventy-fifth meri-
dian. This, however. is not the sun
which gives us light and heat, but an
invisible. imaginary one; because, fol
certain reasons, the true sun does not
cross the meridian at the same moment
every day, but during one part of the
year he gets over it o little more ahead
OF time each day, and during the other
part he is correspondingly behind time:
and so this fictitious sun is used. be-
cause its apparent path around the earth
brings 1t exactly over the same line at
the same moment every day. Now at
just what instant this sun crosses the
meridian is determined by means of the
stars, for time at the observatory is not
reckoned by the sun bnt by the stars.
Every clear night an astronomer at the
observatory looks through large tele-
scope for certain'stars which he knows
must cross certain line at certain times
and by the use of an electrical machine
he makes record of the time each star
passes, as shown by clock which keeps
sidereal or star time. He then consults
printed table, which shows him at just
what time each star must have passed,
and by as much as this time differs from
that recorded by the clock the latter is
wrong, and in that way the sidereal
clock is regulated. This star time is then
reduced to sun time, which requires some
calculation, as there is difference be-
tween the two of about four minutes
each day.
These two clocks-the one keeping star
time and the other sun time-are of very
fine quality, and are as near perfection
as possible. Although they cannot help
being affected by changes of tempera-
ture and different conditions of the at
mosphere, they very rarely are more
than fractional part of second out of
the way. No attempt is ever made to
correct such errors, but they are care
fully noted and allowed for in making
calculations.
For the purpose of distributing time
third clock, known as q transmitter, is
used. This is set to keep time by the
seventy-ffth meridian and is regulated
by the standard clock before mentioned.
1t is in all respects similar to the other
clocks, except that it has attached to it
an ingenious device by which an electric
circuit may be alternately opened and
closed with each beat of the pendulum.

JOHN DRISCOLL.


An Opera Season In the North.
Remarkable differences occur iii the
seasons of the arctic regions. SO that at
certain times. as happened last year. all
the channels of the northern seas are
filled and choked with floating ice at the
breaking up of winter, while at other
times the same channels are compare
lively free. and but little ice is seen
along the tracks of the transatlantic
steamers
1t is a most interesting fact that sim
liar vicissitudes evidently occur in the
arctic and antarctic regions of the
planet Mars. The telescope shows that
vast fields Of snow exist around the
poles of Mars, extending when it is win
ter at either of those poles and contract
ing when it is summer there. But the
polar SHOWS of Mars appear to DO mo-
ticeably less extensive in some winter
seasons than in others, SO that we might
fairly expect to find there, il we could
visit that planet, corresponding differ
ences in the amount Of ice carried toward
the equator at the end of successive
winters.

is perhaps fortunate for the increase of
our knowledge of the arctic regions
that Lieutenant Peary and his party,
who started for northern Greenland last
year, are now in the far north. They
may bring back most interesting ac-
counts of the condition of things there,
and perhaps be able to throw some light
upon the cause of the remarkable varia-
tions in the quantity of icebergs and
ice fields that come floating out of those
mysterious regions in different seasons.

CAME THROUGH THE PORT.

The Herald Traces Some of the Cases OF
Cholera In New York.
NEW YORK, Sept. 49, The Herald in
Its article about cholera at length OBJ
tanning foothold in New York, SAYS
three other cases have been reported as
suspicious, but have not yet been ap-
proximately determined.
The Investigations of The Herald have
shown where the cholera probably came
from in at least one case, and suggested
the source OF the other contagious. 1t
came through the port Of New York.
Immigrant passengers on the steamer
Friesland, which arrived here on Aug.
20 seem to have brought the disease to
little Minnie Levinger, who died on
Sept. IL. They are traced back to Ant
werp, which they reached from other
cities in Europe, no doubt infected with
cholera. When they reached Quaran-
tine there was illness reported on board,
and after few hours detention and So
called fumigation, they were permitted
to proceed.
From the steamship pier the passen-
gers scattered over the city and the
country. Four young women of the
company went to All East Forty-sixth
street, where little Minnie lived. 1t ap-
pears that being greatly interested in
the child they spent some idle hours
playing with it. There is every
reason to believe that the infection
was in their clothing; that they in
nocently carried it about with them,
escaping its dangers themselves, and
from their clothing the child got the dis
ease which carried the little one off in
twenty-four hours.
In the case of Callahan plausible
connection seems to be established be-
tween him and the emigrants who, ar
irving in the city by trans Atlantic
steamer, went south by the Mallory line,
to whose pier Callahan was often taken,
by his business. He was butcher.
In the other instances the relatives
and physicians have not been able to
suggest the precise method Of infection,
but 1t seems not unlikely that it came
about In some similar way.

The dogs of Paris are giving a good
deal of trouble to the police as well as to
their owners, who scarcely dare let
them go out of their sight lest they
should be pounced upon and taken off
to the Fouriere to be forthwith destroyed.
There can be no question that in the
very hot weather stray dogs constitute
certain danger. 1t appears, however,
from all that is said on the subject.
that the new police regulations concern
ing dogs are rather heedlessly severe.
the consequence being frequent COLI
sions between dog owners and the police.
The other day, for instance, an almost
serious scuffie occurred in Paris. the
cause of which was dog. The animal
was noticed by policeman in the street
to be without the regulation muzzle,
and was at once arrested" If the ex-
preston may be used.
A woman claimed the animal as her
property in presence Of a crowd of 500
people. The affair took such lively
turn that the police officers were com
PEELED to draw their sword bayonets in
their own defense. The upshot of the
matter was that one Of the officers was
rather severely injured, and that had it
not been for the arrival of party of
constables on the scene it is probable
there would have been serious fighting.
In the course of the scuffie the dog, the
original cause of 1t, escaped.-Levant

DALToNs CAPTURED.

Five Members OF the Notorious Cans
Rounded UP In New Mexico.
PARIs, Tex.s Sept. LEA telegram re.
ceived from Deming, N. NJ, during the
day stated that capture long to be re-
membered in criminal history was
effected there Tuesday night-none other
than that of five of the members of
the famous Dalton gang of train
robbers. The dispatch was from Deputy
Marshal Sam Williams, of the Paris
court, who stated that he had made the
capture. Those captured were Bob Dali
ton, the leader of the gang; Grant Dali
ton, Amy Dalton, Sam Wilgo and Three
Fingered Jack.
In the fight between the marshal's
posse and the robbers two of the latter
were killed and five captured. Three of
the gang are yet at liberty. 1t is sup
posed that the gang intends to rob the
Southern Pacific while on their way to
the Mexican border. Marshal Williams
bears evidence of the fight, several
fingers of his right hand being shot off,
Shortly after the last raid by the out
laws, which occurred at Adair, I. T.,
july ID, Williams started in pursuit Of
the desperadoes. He followed them
out OF the territory into Kansas, thence
to Colorado and New Mexico, where the
capture was made.
The Dalton gang is wanted in the
Indian territory, Kansas, New Mexico
and California, to answer to the charge
OF train robbery. The rewards offered
by the officials of the railroad and ex-
press companies robbed in Kansas and
California aggregate $22, 200.
