The eastbound passenger train on the
Frisco road was held up by highwaymep at
Mound Valley, Kan. The train had stop

sprang on the tender and ordered the en-

WHAT Is AN ACCIDENTS
Important Legal Decisions Defining

Che Word Accident"
Three recent legal decisions are referred
to by an Eastern paper rs having bearing
on the question of what constitutes an acci-
dent. All three we're brought against in
surance companies exploiting this field, and
decided in favor Of the insured or their
heirs. The evident desire of the conrts Is to
throw their protection over the widest area,
10 give the meaning Of the word accident
the largest possible scope. 1t will be inter
esting to notice the cases, since by so doing
the position of accident insurance compan-
les is more clearly defined than it was ever
before:
A man in Syracuse y. Y, broke his arm,
and 20 DAYS later. having failed to lake pre-
cautions. he died of pneumonia. The court
held that he died of an accident and the
insurance company in which he held an
accident policy had to pay,
Another man, who lived in Morristown,
NY. got up in the night to close window.
While walking across the room in the dark
he struck his shin on chair. inflammation
developed, followed by grave complications,
and the man died after having his leg am.
putated The insurance company contended
that he had neglected to take proper pre-
cautions in not lighting a candle before
crossing the room, bnt the court held
against this theory and the company paid
the loss.
The Court of Appeals of New York State
recently affirmed a ruling of the Supreme
Court in the case of NJ. NJ. Paul, who was
sufIocated in his sleeping room by escaping
gas. Roth courts held that he died from an
accident.

DAMAGE DONE AT CHARLESTON
a SUMMARY of the pevastation caused

a Summary of the Devastation Caused
in One City by the Terrible Storm.
The damage done at Charleston, S. g., by
the terrible storm of Monday is fully as
great as that caused by the awful cyclone
of 1885, The losses in the city are estimated
as follows; City property, 100000; ferti-
lizer works sl73, 500; Charleston Mining
Company $50, 00o;railroads $50, 900; telegraph
companies sSO,oOO telephone exchange,
$1,000; lead works $4,000; wharves SOS, 900;
shipping $50, 600; Ashley river bridge 600, 600;
churches $50, 900; private property $500, 900;
miscellaneous $780, Total Sill, 500
The experience Of 1885 taught the Charles
tonians lesson, and over 81 ,0O0, 600 cyclone
insurance was held there. This will greatly
Offset the damages.
Six person were killed and two injured
and Others are missing.
All the rivers in the State are over their
banks, and lowland crops are ruined, the
damage amounting to several hundred
thousand dollars.

BERnN-Two fresh cases Of Asiatic chol.
era were reported in this city. Both were
caused by the drinking Of city water. The
newspapers demand that the city water
worss at Stralau on the Speed be closed, as
they are generally believed to be infected.
-Four cases of cholera we're reported in Budn
Pesth. No deaths were recorded. In the
last ~ honrs ll6 fresh cases and SO deaths
have been reported in the different infected
districts of Hungary All of the middle
schools have been closed, and the burgo
master of Buda Pesth has urged the govern

Ad'ices from the cholera districts ol
Galicia show better condition of affairs,
the number of new cases being much les
