work. IL was what the miners call gust
explosion" The shock killed twenty seven
of the men, only one escaping, he being

BILE.
NKw 0RLRANs, January 1.-THE south
bound limited train on the Illinois Cen
tral due here at $40 yesterday morning
was wrecked at BAN, mile and a half
north of Beauford, Miss. The engine and
mail, express, and baggage-cars lett the
track entirely. The engineer, fireman,
and express messenger were badly injured,
but no passengers were hurt. The cause
of the wreck was missing rail, which had
been removed by train-wreckers. The
motive OF the crime was probably rob-
berry, but the wreck was not quite late
enough for that. and the robbers went of
without making any attack on the tram.
