wood on Sixth avenue between Ninth
and Tenth streets yesterday. The
horse and cart were standing in the
street while MIR. Sexton was distrib-

avenue. The horses evidently had q
Misunderstanding az to which side
Of Uncle Sans mail cart to pass.
The consequence was that they pro-
ceeded to climb over it. The cart
couldn't stand the pressure and
rolled over and laid down, being
seriously fractured by the rough
handling to which it was submitted.
The tongue Of the wagon was pushed
up on the back of the mail cart
