THIRTEEN KILLED.
Terrible Accident on the Fort WAYNE Road
in Ohio.


WOOSTER. O., Sept. 22.-The Chicago
express on the Fort Wayne road crashed
into a freight train at Shreve this
killed outright, three seriously injured
and others slightly hurt.
The Chicago express. known as No. 8.
was approaching the station at full
speed at o'clock this morning when
the first section of freight train No rs,
which had been lying on siding, sud-
denly pulled on to the main track in
front of it, and before either train
could stop they had collided. 1t is
thought the engineer of the freight did
not understand his orders.
Both engines were ground to a shane
less mass and six cars of the express, in
Guiding the postal car, two express cars,
the baggage car, smoker and one coach,
together with five of the freight cars
were ruined.
The cars wrecked were five freight
cars, one postal car, two express cars,
one baggage car and two coaches. all
OF which were totally destroyed by fire
One coach and the sleeping cars on the
express train were not wrecked and es-
capped the flames. 1t is feared the miss
Ing 1SOAS IN the names.
There were five clerks il the postal
car and four were instantly killed and
the fifth fatally injured.
The fire communicated from the fire
box OF the engine to the postal car and
In a short time the car was ablaze.
From there the flames swept to the two
express cars, and before the passengers
succeeded in checking them, the bag
gage, smoking and day coach We're re-
duced to ashes. Many of the citizens
of Shreve secured buckets and helped
the passengers to extinguish the flames.
The local physicians also hurried for
ward to do what they could. All at
tention at first was paid to the passen-
gers imprisoned in the burning smoker
and day coach, two or three pinioned
down by broken timbers. The fire
swept up on them so quickly that the
rescuers had to stand back while the
victims were burned. The bodies OF
the dead that were saved from crema-
ton were laid out on the ground a short
distance from the wreck and were COW
cred with blankets

EXCITING INCIDENTS.
Dead Horses and Crippled Jockeys Strewed
Along the Race Track at Gravesend.

Dea Horses and Crippled Jockeys Strewed
Along the Race Track at Gravesend.
GRAyEsEND RACE TRACK, n. J., Sept
23-The racing yesterday afternoon
was sensational in the extreme. NJ. F.
Dryers two-year-old Lovelace was
made an even money favorite in field
of eleven starters in the first race.
Seabrlght acted as pace maker for five
furlOngs and then collapsed Loyelace
finally landed first place by a head
from Sport, 10 to 1, who came from
the rear with winning rush Foxhan
Keene's Candelabra was also made the
medium of a plunge, he going to the
post at to 5. He succeeded in win
ming, but Stonneu, who finished sec
ond, Vas disqualified for bearing in on
Fsgot in the last sixteenth. Fagot was
placed third and Charade fourth. While
this race was on, Hapenny stumbled at
the end of the stretch, turned a couple of
somersaults, striking Midgley, Wah
Jim's rider, and cutting his head open.
Hapenny then rolled on top of his
rider, Penny, who is a colored boy
and the same lad who rode Julie when
the latter was killed at Monmouth
park. Penny was thought to be dead,
but recovered consciousness in about
ten minutes. One of Hapenuy's legs was
broken and pistol shot ended his rae
ing career, which has been somewhat
of disappointment In the next race,
about a sixteenth of mile beyond
where Hapenny fell, Warpath toppled
over and threw Jockey Sloan, breaking
the latter's collar bone. At the same
instant John Cavanaugh was coming
up fast and he, too, went down.
Hamilton, the 1atter's rider was
thrown and somewhat bruised about
the face and head. Warpath
could not get up was dragged off the
track John Cavanaugh was uninjured.
Gideon & Daily owned Hapenny and
Freddy Gebhart owns Warpath. York
vile Belle, Garrison up, and L TO in
the betting, permitted White Rose to
make the pace for seven furlongs. Gar
rison then gave the Belle her head and
she won the Clinton stakes in gallop
The weather was threatening and the
track slow. Later in the evening War
path and John Cavanaugh were de-
stroyed. The latter was found to have
4 broken shoulder. This makes three
horses killed in the days races.

MARSHAL WILLIAMS DEAD.

No Doubt Killed by the DaItons Whom
He Was Supposed to Have Capt ured-A
False Telegram.
PARIS, Tex, Sept. 22.-There is little
doubt here now that the dispatch sent
here from Deming, y. NJ, to Marshal
Nickerson, signed Sam Williams, say
ing that he had arrested five of the Dali
ton gang and was after three others,
was sent by Sam Wingo, one of the
most desperate outlaws in the country
After the kilograms were sent Sam
disappeared from Deming and nothing
could be heard from him A description
of Sam Williams was asked for. which
was sent. This did not correspond with
the description of the man who claimed
to be Williams at Deming. Parties ar
irving here who know Sam Wingo say
that the description suits him exactly.
The man had two white handled pis-
tolls, whereas Williams always carried
only one, which mad black handle.
