Dying by Hundreds,

CALCUTTA, May 31.-Dispatchcs from
Srinaga say that the whole district is
panic stricken by fire and pleague The
cholera is raging with unprecedented
violence. In the last week i 800 deaths
have been reported, and probably half
as many more persons have died with
out any record or notice to the author
ities. In the rural portions Of tine dis
trict all work has ceased. The people
died by the roadside and in the Village
streets with nobody to nurse them
them or bury them. On account of the
tardiness of burials the air Of the worst
stricken villages is polluted by horrible
odors, and the ravagcs Of the disease arc
accelerated from day to day

DOWN AN EMBANKMENr.
The Engineer Killed and Nine Passsn-
gers Seriously Injured.

CHICAGO, May 91.-The Red express,
from st. Louis to Chicago, on the Santa
Fe road, was wrecked mile and half
south of Lemont, small quarry town
about twenty miles from Chicago, re-
sulting in the instant killing of the en-
gineer, w. A. Isabelle, the serious in
jury of nine passengers and the slight
injury of five more.
1t is stated by the passengers that at the
time of the accident the train was run
ming at high rate Of speed to make up
lost time. AT the point before mem
toned the engine struck COW and calf.
The engine and tank jumped the track
and, after running short distance on
the ties, rolled down the embankment
into the Desplaines river. The baggage
car was landed on its side; the smoker
followed, breaking the coupling with
the sleeper The latter tumbled With
fearful rapidity down into the river with
the engine and tender.
The panic and confusion which en-
sued made more difficult the task of at
tending to the wounded and of rescuing
the occupants Of the sleeper from their
perilous position. Fortunately the depth
of the water was not sufficient COM
pletely to submerge 1T, and, with such
assistance as the trainmen could secure,
the passengers were taken out through
the windows. The Santa Fe officials
claim, however, that the train was not
running at an excessive high rate of
speed, and that the indirect cause of the
mishap was the sharp curve which rem
dered it impossible to see the obstruction
until it was too late to bring the train
to standstill.

Break in the PAYERS, Strike.

New YORK, May 3l.-The first break
in the big strike Of the National Paving
Cutters union occurred yesterday. Six
German PAYERS who are members of the
union returned to work. The contractor
in charge Of the job said that they had
come back of their own accord TIE
men said that they had not received a
cent since the strike began, notwith-
standing the statement of the union that
the strikers were receiving their regular
pay. The contractors say that this is
the first step toward a complete victory
for them. In few days they think that
several hundred union PAYERS will re-
sumo work. The non-union men are
pushing the work of paving Third ave
me rapidly. All other contractors paw
ing streets in this city re fumed work
with nOn-union men yesterday.

pESSARA'S RACE.
a Hard Struggle for the Metro
politan Handicap.
WITNESSED BY THIRTY THOUSAND

from Start to Finish, and Finishes

Locohatchce Second and Slcipner
Third.
New YORK, May 81.-Morris Park,
with its immense stretches and magnifi-
cent scenery, opened its racing season
yesterday afternoon in blaze of glory,
with card that could not be surpassed,
and the weather, despite few spas
modic showers, was all that could be de-
sired. 1t was no surprise to see race
goers turn out en- masse, and when the
bell rang for the horses entered in the
first racc.to 80 to the post fully 10000
persons were assembled in the commo-
dious grand stand, on the spacious lawn
and in the free field.
The feature of the day was the Metro
politan handicap; race second only in
Importance TO the Brooklyn or Suburban
handicaps. for which some of the best
horses in training We're carded. Pessara,
who ran so gamely in the Brooklyn
handicap, in which event he finished a
SAooo SttOilu W % uuSe hlOfTOW, Ilt VIII
ner, was deservedly the favorte. Tarai,
whose riding this year has been of the
best, had the mount, and from the way
the horse was backed one would suppose
the race was all over but the shouting.
he won, it IS true, but it was only after
hard struggle and in very fast time.
The horses broke from the post to q
beautiful start, with Pessara in front.
Taral Immediately took him in hand,
and Fairy and Russell went out and
made the running until well into the
stretch, where Taral called on Pessara.
The horse responded nobly, and at the
