Wreck of a Freight Train.

A bad wreck occurred on the Western Md.
Railroad on Thursday morning. Two engines
pulling ten empty coaches and running as the
second section of the through freight train,
due from Baltimore in Hagerstown at a, M,
ran into the rear end of the through freight
train on the steep grade between Pen-Mar and
Blue Mountain, derailing oHe of the engines,
upsetting several cars loadedwith merchandise
and blockading the tracks.
The first section, or through freight, had
stopped at Blue Mountain for orders and had
failed to send back n hagman, when the
double-header came laundering along. The
engineer on the first locomotive saw the rear
end of the freight train at a short distance and
endeavored to stop his train, but owing to the
steep grade and lively momentum it was i'm
possible to stop and there was fearful crash.
The engine plowed nearly through the
caboose, in which, luckily, none of the train
men we're at the moment The caboose was
derailed and demolished and several cars,
with goods consigned to Southern merchants,
were derailed and their contents scattered
along the tracks. One of the engines was
also derailed, but no one was injured.

be very light in consequence. The rain was
Just in time to save the corn crop; much of it
had already suffered for want of moisture.
Should the corn crop be a failure it will be
disasterous year for many of our farmers, as
the wheat is not more than half crop.
Pasture lands were driving up and in some in
stances cattle were suffering.
Some of our farmers started to pillow for
their fall crop since the rain.
The drought also cut short the bean crop of
B. F. Shriver & Co., and but for timely rain
the sweet corn crop would have been an entire
failure.

The Spanish troops laid down their arms
at 8 O'Clock this morning. They will be
camped two miles outside the city limits,

The docks are crowded by incoming refu-
gees in a starving condition, awaiting the ar
rival in the harbor of the Red Cross Society S
