MAIL TRAIN WRECKED IN VERMONT,
The Engineer Killed and Many
Others Injured.


MONTPELIER, VT, March 10, 1894. The
mail train over the Central Railroad of YER
mont, due here at $50 o'clock this morning
was wrecked at Browns Mills, in the Town
of Berlin. two and one-half miles from here,
at twenty minutes Of three o'clock this
morning. A portion of ledge in deep
cut fell upon the track on a curve where
it was impossible for the engineer to
see it until the train was upon the OBJ
stluction. The train consisted of a 1ocomo-
tive, mail car, baggage car, two passenger
cars and two sleeping cars. The locomotive
and mail cars were totally wrecked, the
baggage car and the remains of the mail car
resting on top Of the locomotive. The for
ward passenger car was somewhat damaged,
but the others remain practically intact.
The passengers, who were for the most
part enligrants, were badly frightened,
but with the exception OF a few receiving
slight cuts and bruises, they were unhurt.
Engineer Patrick Mckinney was taken out
of the wreck at seven O'Clock
badly bruised. He was unmarried and be-
longed in ST. Albans, VT, living there with
a sister. Fireman McQuinney of Burling-
ton, Vt, was badly, but not seriously hurt.
He crawled out Of the wreck unaided. Two
mail agents were in the mail car, and it is
miracle that either escaped with his life, for
the car was completely demolished. Postal
Clerk William Spalding of Roxbury
was badly cut about the head,
but not seriously injured. The
remains of the engineer were brought here
and placed in charge of an undertaken
Postal Clerk Spalding secured the registered
letter pouch, and the remainder of the mail
has been brought here in wagons. A wreck
ing train was sent from st. Albans shortly
after the accident happened, but it is doubt
full if the track will be cleared today The
accident, having occurred in cut, makes
the work of removal more difficult. The
track is torn up for several rods.

There was considerable CONSERVATION felt
among the tenants Of the apartment houses
on the west side of Bloomfield street, Hobo
ken, between Newark and Ferry streets, to-
day, when it was made known that house
in the centre of the block No. SO, was the
ocation of a nest of smallpox patients. The
house Is three stories in height of brick
construction On the third floor the
Cox family lived, and on the floor below
a family named Black. Mrs. Black died late
last night of the disease, and Mrs. Cox's
sister, who is married, has the scourge in
its worst form. Mrs. Cox's sister is in a
delicate condition, and it is considered dan
gerous to have her removed. Her two
young daughters have been playing in the
room where the mother has been sick right
along, and now that the Health authorities
have known of the case the girls have been
placed in separate rooms.
Children from other houses have also
played with the girls and have been exposed
to the disease. Mrs. Black gave birth to a
daughter three days ago. She had been sick
of smallpox for two weeks without the
knowledge Of the health people. There could
not be found in town an undertaken who was
willing to bury Mrs. Black. She was CON
veyed to the n,orgue and will be buried by
Morgue Keeper Crane.
Children living on the block where the
smallpox was, have been notified to keep
away from school for few days. The
house has been fumigated Mrs. Cox will be
removed as soon as is expedient to the pest

M'KANFs FRIEND ON TRIAL.

New YORK, March 12, 1S94-The second
trial of Kenneth F. Sutherland of Graves
end, who is charged with oppression, was
called at half past ten o'clock this morning,
before Justice Brown, in the Court of Oyer
and Terminer, Brooklyn. Long before that
hour the room was crowded with spectators.
For long time it looked as if the case would
go over until tomorrow, owing to the sick
ness of Charles H. Requa, the stenographer
who took the testimony of Sutherland dur
ing the McKane trial. 1t was finally de-
cided, however, that any part of the testi-
mony given by Sutherland during the
McKane trial which was material and rele-
want should be read by the prosecution or
defence just the same as if the stenographer
was present on the witness stand. The work
of selecting jury then began.
