Philadelphia. July 31.-Advices from
Atlantic City to the office of the Phil

in this city this morning, place the num-
Der of killed in last nights railroad ac-
cident at forty-three, including the en-
gineer and fireman of the Reading train.
There are no new DEVELOPMENTS re-
garding the responsibility for the terri
BILE loss of life, but the accident seems to
have resulted from the failure of Engi-
neer Farr of the Reading train. to obey
the signals at the block station, which
1t Is generally agreed were set against
his train. and required g full stop. En-
gineer Farr and his fireman were both
killed.
Engineer Kriner Of the West Jersey,
say that as he neared the crossing, he
saw the reading train approaching from
the opposite direction. A Camden and
Atlantic train was also coming toward
the city and 1t seemed to him that both
trains were racing. The signals at the
blockhouses We're open for him to go on,
and knowing that If such be the case,
that the block must be against the
Reading train, he expected the latter to
stop. Before he realized 1t. he saw a
collision was inevitable and he was
about to jump at the point where the
Reading engine now lies, but he o a
desperate chance and stuck to his post.

The Summer Arm,

AS oft as the summer comes around,

A certain mystic malady
That settles in my arm;
1t doesn't burn, or pain, or ache.
Or feel rheumatic thrills.
And yet with keen anxiety
My mind 1t always fills.
While sitting In a boa or car,
Upon the news intent,
I'm shocked TO find the way M poor
AFFLICTED arm IL bent
As soon as I'm not looking, or
My thoughts are called away,
Around the seat that's next to me
My arm begins to stray.
You SEQ how troublesome 1t Is
10 have an arm like mine.
That Just as soon as summer comes
Begins to bend and Irvine;
1 think III have to 60 away
And search from east to west
Till 1 have found some small waist place.
Where my poor arm csh rest.

button at the door, and the sum was

to provide for the expenses of Miss Cou-
zins' journey to st. Louis. AS the UNI

be used to pay the expenses of some one
