men from the city was making its usu-

quiet had been restored it was found
that a frst-class coach had been COM

were lying about MANNED and bleed
ing. Ten Of the injured were found to
be in a precarious condition. A num-
Der Of persons who were standing on

cause Of the explosion is not known, but
1t is believed to have been theresult of

ignited in some way. Many persons,
however, believe that the disaster was
not due to accident, but was caused by
the explosion Of a bomb which had

day confessed To being a defaulter to
the extent of S45, 900, and whose friends
had agreed to pay up his shortage to
keep him out of Jail, is behind the bars
Of Fulton prison. At a meeting of the
board of directors of the institution
which was robbed, brief examination
Of the books was made and resulted in
the astonishing discoverythst the bank,
which was supposed to be one Of the
most prosperous in the state, had hard
" a cents worth of assets. Instead of
the shortage being $4,000, it will be
several times that sum, and instead Of
young Cassin being the bearer Of the
entire guilt, it is now believed that at
least one other prominent official will
share a cell with him.
