 occupied in part by the Postal Tele-
 graph company. The public flocked to the place and thousands Of dollars were paid over the counter daily. This
 morning the crowd of traders, when
 they reached the office, were confronted 1 by the announcement of the failure posted on the door. There was much
 excitement and large crowd gathered, but the police soon cleared the street No statement of the amount of money | involved in the failure here could be obtained to-day, but it is not believed that it will exceed S25,000.

HER DOG DIED WITH HER.
An Aged Woman and Her Faithful
Friend Killed on the Rail-

An aged and unknown woman was
killed on the Chesapeake and Ohio rail-
road yesterday afternoon about o'clock,
as the train which left Cincinnati at l
o'clock was speeding along the Ken
lucky shore Of the Ohio river. The en-
gueer Of the train noticed the old
woman, who was accompanied by her
dos walking in the middle of the track
some distance ahead Of the train. He
thought. of course, that they would leave
the track on hearing the approach Of the
train and the warning signals, and did
not reduce speed. The woman, however,
when only about q hundred yards in
front of the engine, turned around and
walked away from the rushing train,
still keeping on the track. No power
could then save her. The passengers
were not aware Of an accident until the
train was stopped and backed to where
they only saw dog lying crushed on
the track. About thirty feet from the
track, terribly manged, lay the remains
OF the woman. The name was not
learned. but it is supposed that she was
so aged as to be unable TO take care
OF herself and had wandered Off with
her faithful dog, who chung to her 10
death.
