Several Persons Hurt.
Tie passenger train on the Ohio River
railroad due here from Huntington at
7:45 last evening did not arrive until
half past one this morning, having been
delayed by a bad wreck four miles
south OF Moundsville,
Bad as the wreck was, the only Won
der 10 that it was not much worse.
Fortunately nobody was fatally, or even
dangerously, hurt, though the characc-
ter OF the accident was such that 1t
might have been attended by great loss
of life.
The passenger train was running
along at full speed when 1t struck
freight train in the &C. OF entering
switch. About seven cars had gotten
in on the siding when the passenger
engine struck. Three freight cars were
demolished by tho force OF the blow
which drove the engine through them.
The front of the engine was also cehsid-
erably battered up.
The fireman of the passenger train
Jumped through the window OF tho
cab, and the glass cut his nose COM
pleiely in two and also cut his face bad
iv besides. The engineer had his ankle
sprained. a track walker was struck
BY one OF the cars and seriously bruised,
and four or five passengers were shaken
up and bruised. One man had four or
five big bumps raised on his forehead.
Conductor Heintz was walking down
the aisle in the smoking car, and lie
was thrown over by the force oil the
shock, but not hurt.
One OF the demolished freight cars
was loaded with lime in barrels. This
car was raised up and thrown oil the
track. In this car was a tramp, steal
ing u ride. lie was rolled out with the
freight, but not hurt particle.
The passenger engine was derailed,
and u telegram was sent to this city TO
send down another engine. The crew
could not be gathered, however, until
IL o'clock, when the engine was sent
down. 1t required some time to pull
eight or nine freight cars out OF the
road and clear the track, which added
to the delay.
The exact cause OF the mishap could
not pc learned. The passenger engine
had orders to pass the freight at that
siding. 1t was said that the freight had
until GAIA p. IN. to pull in upon the side
track. The passenger train came along
ut G:i0, and the engineer Stacked up
when the switchman slgnaled him to
come ahead, and thinking the track
was clear, he crowded on steam and
started ahead at full speed, only to hit
the freight "side wipe"
The track is on high bank, with the
river at the bottom. 1t was u matter oil
general comment among the passen-
gers that it was wonderful the whole
passenger train was not dumped in the
river. The coaches were all well filed
with passengers, several OF them being
well known Wheeling people. Among
these were Mrs. j. D. Stanton and Mr..
s. B. Brubaker. Both escaped any in
Jury.

glance.
The mayors chair, from which his
bright gIances and sallies have flashed,
was heavily hung with deep black, the
bright red cherry furniture being en-
tiroly hidden beneath the thick heavy
folds OF crepe. The desk, too, ON which
his gavel has fallen more than once
with heavy force, but always with a
grand good nature behind it, was hid
den beneath the sombre hues of death.
No gavel tell to call the council to order,
a simple word was sufficient. Alder.
man George Il. Swift, (Rep.) presided.
Resolutions offered by Alderman Ryan
were adopted by rising vote. pne
resolutions which were unduly lengthy
provided for u memorial meeting OF the
council and concluded as follows:
"Rssolrsi, That all civic and military
organizations in tho city are hereby IN
vited to attend the funeral Of him who
was "iirst in tho hearts" OF the citizens
OF Chicago; and, that, as u mark oil re-
spect to the great mayor, the CITY offices
shall be closed from Tuesday morning
until after the burial Of our peoples
dead"
Alderman Powers moved that it be
the sense OF the council that all the ct-
zens OF the city be asked to participate
in the obsequies which are to come.
1.-THE city OF Chicago Will act sponta-
neously," said the chair. "The late
mayor was loved and endeared to all
the people OF Chicago. The manner OF
his death is such as to prompt all citi-
zens to become u part OF the mourning
congregation which will follow him to
his grave"
Alderman Sexton then moved an adj
journment, and the aldermen filed quiz
city out OF the council chamber.
