We have much of the hero worship
in u.s. and even unto polo games. our
sympathy for the players. for better
or for worse, is keen, painfully so. at
times. For instance take such a game
as Wednesdays when the Augustus
We're beaten !, to 1, in q most unsatis-
factory game. Those who were there
in sympathy for the defeat of the home
heroes, felt as if some personal calam-
ity had befallen them. something that
they were personally responsible for.
and its consequent dissatisfaction Is
bitter enough. All this has its COM
pensation, and when the home team
wins. everyone present feels as If he
had done big thing; as il he had had
some part in it. But for the man who
puts up a great game" for the home
team, he owns the town.

-Four Persons Killed and Seventeen More
or Less Injured.
The Breaking Of an Axle on the
Forward Truck of the LocomO-
tive Causes the Engine to Jump
the Track and Roll Down a
Steep Embankment, Carrying
Two Coaches With It.

CHARLOTTESVILLE (Va.), Nov. T.
The Chesapeake and Ohio vestibule
express, known as the IF. F. w." from
Cincinnati to Washington, was wrecked
near Shadwell, five miles east of this
place, at /: :25 this afternoon. Four per-
sons We're killed.
The dead: Henry Burnett, colored
porter Keswick, Va. An Italian woman
named Merra, and an infant, believed
to be from Cincinnati. Phelix Mareno,
DIED after removal TO Charlottesville.
1t is reported that the body OF another
Italian child is under the wreck, but
this cannot be confirmed.
Seventeen persons We're more or less
injured, including Engineer Duke, who
may die Lee Crandall of Globe, Ariz.,
suffered a severe scalp wound.
The wreck was caused by the break
ing of an axle on the forward truck Of the
locomotive. The engine left the track on
a curve, and with the two coaches fol-
lowing rolled down a steep embank-
ment, one of them being partly sub
merged in the Rivanna River.

TREASURY BUILDINGS.
General Miles Would Have Them
Fortified.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. - General
Nelson A. Miles was asked last night 10
give his reasons for recommending the
fortification of the new Federal build
ing in Chicago with Calling guns. lie
said:
"There are nine places in this coun-
try where the Treasury chests OF Uncle
Sam are located and for the past tWen-
tv wears I have urged the necessity OF
protecting these repositories with the
most approved patterns of firearms.
When the subject of a new pubic build
ing at Chicago was preached one of my
first thoughts was for protective meas
ures in case there should be an attempt
directed against the sub-reasury hold>
ings which will be put in the building.
While I was in Constantinople the de-
tails of the attack on the Turkish bank
in that city were related to me ana
brought back to me the necessity Tor
some means for defense of the public
institutions of the United States. Cat
ling guns could be placed where they
would be available at a moments no
tice."
General Miles did not believe there is
any necessity in fortifying Postoffices
or other Federal structures, except
those in which are large sums of Gov
ernment money. He thinks that IN
each where there are sub-treasuries !,
detail of regular troops should be main
tanned. According to his plan. this
would involve additional expense to
the Government Supervising Archi-
tect Tavlor of the Treasury Depart
want coils attention to the fact that the
mint at Philadelphia was constructed
TO permit of it's occupancy by light ar
tillerymen in case of an emergency.

PRINCE OF WALES SUED.
Alleged to Have Received a Large
Sum of Money Wrongfu1ly.

LONDON, Nov. 4-There was an ex-
traordinary case heard before the Lord
Mayors Court to-day, when a man
named Hinde sued the Prince of Wales
to Recover 100000 alleged to have
been wrongfully paid him by the late
Under Sheriff Croll, who was the lqui-
dator of the United Kingdom Electric
Telegraph Company.
The plaintiff declared that the money
belonged to a certain Mr.. Allen, to
whose estate he was assiSnee. Hinde
further claimed the sum of $lo0,OOO
from Lord Suffolk, alleging that the
latter had suborned Croll TO commit per-
Jury before Lord BramweH at the trial
in 1877, in connection with the liquida-
ton.
Sir George Lewis, on behalf of the
Prince of Wales and the Earl of Suf-
folk, asked that the suit be quashed, on
the ground that allegations were moth
ing more than frivolous and vexatious
tissue of nonsense, and he submitted an
affidavit to that effect
The plaintiff then addressed the court,
declaring that he had been told that the
Prince of Wales received the money re-
ferred to. and then proceeded to charge
Lord Bramwell with defrauding Allen S
widow out of $750,00O in order to OBJ
tain promotion and a peerage.
The plaintiff was here stopped by the
court with the warning to speak re-
spectfully of Judges. Finally the court
etonped the case and dismissed the ac-
ton which was described as being AN
abuse Of the process of the court
