AN EXCELLENT MARKET.

Colonel Murphy Gives His Opinion of
the Trade That Can be Built Up
With Europe.
WASHINGTON, May 7.-Colonel @. ].
Murphy has returned to this country for a
few weeks leave. He speaks enthusisstic-
ally of the corn work in Europe, and feels
especially encouraged by the interest
aroused in Denmark on the subject. The
conditions existing there seem likely to be
met with also in Sweden and Norway. But
1t IL not in corn alone that Colonel Murphy
is interested. He says:
"A1 the wine consumed in the north
ernmost countries of Europe comes from
France, Spain, Italy, and certain parts of
Germany, and no doubt for many
years to come these people will excel
rs in the high wines, but for wines
of a comparatively moderate price
we can already rival the manufacturers
Of southern Europe in quality, and 1
am quite sure we can lay them down in the
ports of northern Europe at q cost which
Will enable us to rival them In price. Con-
sidering the eheapness of ocean transport

All of Her Family Present at the End
Noted for Rer Charitable Work.
NEW YORK, May Mrs. Elise Hsge,
man, wife of Chauuoey N. Depew, died at
her home, No. 43 West Fifty fourth street,
at 1890 this afternoon.
Although Mrs. Depew was known to be
seriously i'll this sudden termination of
her illness WAS not expected by her family
and those most intimately connected with
her. Her condition showed no material
change Saturday. but early this morning a
turn for the worse came.
Mr.. Depew, his son, Chsunoey M. Depew,
jr., Mrs. Depew's mother, Mrs. Hsgeman,
Mrs. Depew's brother, ]. Niven Hsgeman,
and her two little nieoes, the children of
another brother, now dead were all present
when the end came. Mr.. Depew was pros
trated and has shut himself up against all
callers. During the afternoon and evening
friends of the family called at the resi-,
denoe, leaving cards and expressing sym
pathy with the family.
Mrs. Depew was descended from one OF
the oldest New York families. Her father
was the late William Hsgemsn, we'll
known dealer in drugs, who traced his
ancestry back to the earliest Dutch settlers
| in New York. Her mother was a daugh
ter of Colonel Niven, the distinguished
New York attorney, who himself sprane
from an old revolutionary family.
Mrs. Depew was married to Mr.. Depev
November 4, 1871. They have had one
| child, Chauncey, jr., now fourteen year,
old.
In spite of the opportunities that her
| fortune gave her Mrs. Dspew cared lIttl.

years been the president of the Women
association of the Hshnemann hospita
and was also connected with ecore O.
| church organizations. At one time sh

| teur pianist in the city. During the pas
| two years she had been an invalid.

A RUNAWAY ENGINE.

The Engineer, Fireman and Brake
man OF an Express Train Were
Killed and Several Persons Were
Injured.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, May THE Big -Four
passenger train which left Chicago at $3.50
Saturday night in crossing the Wabash
river bridge here got away from the en-
gineer at 1870 this morning. The airbrakes
would not work. The front cars left the
track and after reaching the depot tore
down the sheds on the east side of the
track. The engine. baggage, mail and e1-
press cars were thrown off the track.
William Chadwick, mail clerk, is missing.
The following are badly hurt: Conrad
Weissel, fatally; James Carnahsn. ]. h.
Long, Charles Meyers, postal clerk; Thomas
Vickery, hurt internally; William Place,
Jefferson Reese. The engineer, fireman
and an unknown man were killed.
Had the engine left the track minute
sooner the entire train would have been
thrown into the Wabash river.
LATER The mangled body of Engineer
Welsh has been found under the engine.
Charles Meyers and ]. b. Long, who were
injured have since died. Fireman Mc1nnis
and Otto Jerselson were also killed. This
makes ten deaths in all. Several men, be-
sides those already named were more or
less severely injured. The loss of property
IL $50, 900. High bluffs rise on the west
bank of the Wabash opposite the city. and
there is long steep grade at that point.
The train must have been mile up
from the grade when the engineer dis
covered there was something wrong with
the ar brakes, for he began to whistle for
hand brakes. The speed had by that time
increased so!terrifcally, however, that Its
control was beyond human agency. With
almost lightning like speed the engine
dashed around the curves and across the
long bridge, although the engineer had re-
verssd the machinery and immense streams
of fire were dashed off from the driving
wheels running in the opposite direction
to that of the cars that followed.
Just after leaving the east end of the
long bridge over the tracks the cars de-
scribed a semi circle, at the midway point
of which the union station Is located.
When the engine struck that sharp curve
1t left the teaok, followed by all the cars
except the chair car and two sleepers, In
an awful whirl and they piled upon each
other 100 feet away, after crashing
through train sheds and bringing down
tons of structural iron.
Several victims of the wreck were stand
ing In the depot waiting for the train. Fire
broke out from the stove in the baggage
car, but the FIRE department rapidly ex-
tinguished the flames. Large crowds gath
cred quickly and assisted in rescuing the
victims, and a large force of physicians
gave attention to the wounded.

$4,000 EMBEZzLEMENT.

Teller Edgar Il. swift of the Birming-
ham Bank Arrested by the United
States MarshaI-His DOWNFALL.
BIRMINGHAM, Conn, May 7.-Birming
ham experienced the biggest sensation 1t
has known for some years last evening,
when Edgar T. Swift, teller of the Bir-
mingham National bank was arrested by
United States Marshal Loveridge of New
haven, charged with embezzling over
$10,0 of the funds of the institution.
Swift. who is thirty-fve years of age and
unmarried, has always been considered
one of the most exemplary young men of
the town, and his arrest on such q charge
astonished all who knew him. He has
always been prominent in social circles
and known as one of the brightest young
men in town. There was not the slightest
suspicion of his dishonesty until Friday
when Cashier Clark in looking over the
cash account of the bank discovered a
shortage of $780, He waited until yester-
day, believing there was some mistake,
| and again examining the books verified his
discovery. The matter was at once brought
| to the attention of the directors of the
bank, Swift was summoned before them
aud charged with embezzlement. He
promptly admitted his guilt, and sstonish-
ed the officials by informing them that he
| thought he had taken about IS, 500 of the
| banks funds. A further investigation
showed that the amount was over $40, 600.
| He was arrested and taken to New Haven,
| where he was bound over for hearing.
He did not care to make an effort to secure
bail and was taken to jail. He has father
| and mother and a brother and sister.
Swift has always been an elaborate dresser
and has spent considerable money in good
living. 1t is also Understood that he also
lost considerable money by gambling in
New Haven and elsewhere. He is well
known in that city. He admits that the
charges against him are true, and Gays that
he is willing to suffer.
| A Iort has been in circulation that
Swift was in the habit when coming to the
city of frequentipg one of our best known
and most influential club houses and in
dulging to a considerable extent in gam
bling. This report, 1t Ia found on inquiry
among the managers and other members
of the Quinnipiack club. of which the
young man was a member, Is wholly
| without foundation and incorrect, as
poker playing is strictly prohibited and
gambling of any sort Is against the rules.
This statement is due In justice to the
club, which does not countenance gam
bling in any fashion in its precincts. The
young man also spent very little time al
the club, dropping in for short time
only and spending his time elsewhere.
Many think who knew him that It was not
wholly gambling that brought him down,
but extravaganza and his liberal way OF
spending money in excess of what he could
Justly afford to. Gentlemen to whom re-
ports came of his expenditures shool
their heads and commented upon his ca
reer as seen in this city as boding Ill fol
his future prosperity.
