pulsed with heavy loss, leaving over

Two Cars Telesconed.

Providence, r. L, September 12. The
BOSTON train, bound for New London
and New York which leftlBoston at g. 80
his morning, ran into the rear end Of
the Blackstone train at Smith street
bridge at 8 O'Clock and did considerable
damage. To the Blackstone train were
attached two New England cars, in which
were a number of passengers from
Franklin and way stations. This train
stopped in answer to signals, when the
Boston train crashed into the rear, tele
scoping the two New England cars. 1t is
considered remarkable that no one was
killed or seriously injured. The passen-
gers in both trains were. badly shaken
up. Those in the New England coaches
were rescued through windows The

Teucigalpa, Honduras, September IL. =
A courier arrived yesterday from Yetapan
and announced the most terrible earth
quake ever known in hat section. The
loss to life and property is enormous.
Three hundred people are said to have
persisted. The shocks commenced Sun
day, occurring all day and night at inter-
walls, causing much damage and the
greatest fear among the inhabitants OF
the city and neighborhood. By Monday
the city was filled by an addition of $500
people from the mountains and and
valleys. During Monday night sheets Of
flame app cared at different points to the
northwest, rising to immense heights.
Tuesday morning the shocks ceased and
quiet was restored and the people left
town for their homes. AT nine that
night however, heavy rumbling noises
were heard shortly after followed by the
temperance of the flames in the noun
tains, which shot up several hundred feet
The frightened people again flocked to
town and at midnight the church tower
fell, carrying with it the roofs of three
houses. Nine people we're killed and
eighteen wounded. The s.umbling which
sounded like the heavy ecannonading,
commenced and lasted oversan hour and
a half, the people rushing madly through
the streets praying and crying. Just
before daylight another prolonged shock
which is variously calculated to have
lasted from two and quarter to three
minutes. rocked the whole town as if a
cradle. Many fleeing people were killed
by rocks which fell in perfect shower
like a hail storm Smoke from the
mountains to the northwest rose to an
enormous height, followed shortly after
by the bursting of flames from the moun-
tain sides and the throwing out of rocks
and lava Shortly after streams of molten
lava set fire to number of houses on the
mountain side Cattle grazing near by
fled and were killed. They were engulfed
in the lava, which continued flowing in
immense streams. 1t is reported at
Yetapan that II houses were destroyed.
One hundred and fifty-three dead bodies
were recovered there and many more are
missing. At Covajuanca thirty seven
houses were destroyed and ninety-fye
bodies were recovered. At Cayuscat
twenty-nine houses were destroyed and
one hundred and eleven bodies recovered.
It is impossible yet to give a full account
of the disaster Many small settlements
are believed to be destroyed. The shock
extended over the whole Yetapan range.
The shocks have not ceased. but smoke is
still discernable at different points in the
mountains. a company OF soldiers which
to the coast have not been heard of and it
is feared that they are all killed.

THE STILL HUNT.

The Wilt Of the Rock Island County Sre-
ciai Commissioner to Monmouth.
The Monmouth Review saws of the
visit of the special committee of the
Rock Island county board of super
visors to that city:
Eight of the supervisors of Rock
Island county, out on long junket-
ing trip. were here yesterday after
noon, looking over the town in gen.
eral and the court house in particu-
lar. They made no effort to make
the acquaintance of the county
officials, or even of the jauitor of the
court house, but as uncOncernedly as
though they lived in Warren county.
they let themselves into the building
and took quiet survey of the in
terror. They went all over it. and
then took the afternoon train home.
Very Much Quiet.
At the time they were in the build
ing the county clerk and the build.
ing committee were there also. but
the visitors made no attempt to
scrape up an acquaintance. and il
was not known who they were until
they had gone. They were overheard
to remark that they were very much
pleased with the building and
thought it the finest one they had
visited on their whole trip. The
building committee members regret
ted very much that they did moi
have a chance to make their visit
here all the more pleasant. but the
supervisors evidently wanted to
come and go quietly, SO did not dis
close their identity. The gentlemen
were: H. S. Case, William Rinck
S. j. Collins. j. A. Wilson. William
Edgington, Charles Oberg. j. G. Pow
