 At the time of the accident the engines were on their respective tracks going towards the crossing.
 Both engineers blew for the crossing about the same time, but on account or so much noise from the great amount of switching at this point the engineer of the Alabama Great Southern d-d not hear the signals of the Southern engi- neer, who having the right of way, pro- ceeded, thinking the Alabama Great Southern engine would sop; but the fireman, who would otherwise have seen the impending danger shoveling coal into the flre-box The Alabama Great Southern engine crashed into the Scuth- ern, which, being much the smaller Of the two, was thrown off the track.

When I came back I heard a little baby cry. thought this was fun ny, because I knew Mrs. Stone did nct have baby. went in and found it with the bottle empty. I wanted some milk to give it, but I didn't have any. Oh, it was the sweetest little thing. wish mamma would take 1t. It had a little cloak beside it, and had on the dirtiest little white dress I nearly evsr saw"
 Yesterday afternoon the little cherub nestled in the midst of big feather pillow in Mrs. Chambers bed room. The child is probably a week old, and may be less An old negro who came in the room said .'it thought be a week and it mougbt be more, honey, but believe it haint more dsn a week."
 It has black hear and pretty eyes, the color of which cannot be determined as yet. There was nothing in connection with the clothing or basket to furnish a clue.
 Mrs. Chambers watched it with a jealous eye and every one who came in through curiosity was closely questioned
The age-herald., 1897-09-18

as to wether they were looking for the parents.
 We are not anxious to find the par ents.'' said Mrs. Chambers. fFNe haven't got any children, and I am go- ing to keep the attle dear. MT. Cham bers didn't much want me to have 1t, but I over persuaded him. Its father and mother must have been awful cruel people to have cast the sweet little deafy away. Don't you try to find out who they are for want to keep it.
 My wife would have it." chimed in MT. Chambers. "I serter like the little thing now, and we are not anxious to find the parents. Now, don't you forget to put in it's name. We have christened it William Bryan. He will be president some day. The Jennings part was too long, and we just put 1t William Bryan Chambers"
 Within another twenty-four hours the names of the cruel. parents may be known to the public. Age-Herald re- porters worked on the case until a late hour last night, and a strong clue was found. Suspicion points strongly to people of the middle class and BlrmlnB- ham parties. From every scrap of in- formation gleaned and put together it is almost a certainty that the child IS the fruit of illegitimacy and Is the off, spring of young and beautiful girl. It is also strongly suspicioned that she gave birth to 1t in block of buildings corner of Twentieth street and avenue c, more than one week ago. probably ten days ago.
 This much evidence can be announced as positive Annie Shackelford, negro woman living a few doors from these buildings, on avenue c, told Mrs. Lump

kin, white woman living across the street. that baby had been born in this building. The most damaging evidence is that the negro woman said the moth CT of the baby asked her if she would take the child or if she knew some other colored woman who would. The negro woman told her she did not.
 Annie Shackelford was very much sur prised when approached on the subject. At least she feigned surprise, and left many loop holes in her statement. Once she admitted that the mother of the child asked her to find woman to take it, and again she denied it. She wa S taken to the residence of c. M. Cham bers and allowed to look at the baby. She at first said it was not the one. Again she said it might be. It is evident that the Shackelford woman knows more of the case than she chooses to tell Inquiry in the building mentioned above resulted in nothing. Of course the occu- pants manifested total ignorance of a child having been born there. The place bears an unsavory reputation, and it is said by knowing ones that this is not the first ugly suspicion that has been cast on it.

about and began curious examination of the tiny tot found under such strange conditions.
 c. M. Chambers, the proprietor of a grocery store corner of Avenue H and Twenty-fourth street, was among the first corners He was accompanied by his wife who took the waif to her home at once. She carried it home and it is there now rubbing it's fat little hands on it's chubby face and giving vent to the babyish "goo, geo.''
 When I first saw the child I came nsar fainting," said Mrs. Stone. T was so surprised. We got up early because my daughter, Minnie. works up town. We were just fixing. breakfast when Mary McGovern came to the door. I would not touch the baby until the nelghbors gathered around. I think it is so funny that they would put the little thing on my porch. We were up late last night and arose early this morning. Mir. Cros, the milkman, comes around about o'clock but then unless the baby was crying no one would have noticed it in th= big basket. I heard a noise about o'clock and 1 believe the baby was put there then. or course, I have no idea who its parents are or who put it there. They must have bean very hard-hearted people to have thrown away such pretty little thing"
 Mary McGovern, who first heard the little tots cries, resides with her par ents on Twenty y-third street between Avenues F and G.
 "I was just going to market" said she. Mamma had sent me after the meat for breakfast. I saw the big bas- ket when first passed Mrs. Stones

Mr. Cotton was at work at the Louisville and Nash vllle railroad. and Mir. Smith was in Montgomery. The noise was heard by Mrs Cotton and Mrs. Smith. No trace of the intruder was discovered
