A REAR END COLLISION.


1t Results In Two Deaths and Wrecks
an Engine and Caboose.
Scranton, Pa, Sept. PA coal train
on the Lackawanna dashed into the
rear end of freight train just as 1t
had pulled out of the switch at Nay
Aug, five miles south of here, last
night wrecking the pusher engine and
caboose of the freight train and kill
ing two of the seven occupants Of the
cahoose.
Joseph Parry and Patrick Mullen,
both brakemen. were the killed. Par
ry was reclining against the rear wall
of the caboose, and had his head crush
ed Mullen was trying to get out of
the forward end, aud was caught be-
tween the steps of the caboose and
the pilot of the pusher when the latter
forced the caboose around sideways
and iammed into it second time.
There were five other men in the
caboose, three railroaders and two
droyers, but all escaped injury except
ing Conductor John Kearney, who sus-
tanned an abrasion of the head, and
Bra KEENAN, Patrick Cavanaugh, who
had his hand cut. The engine of the
coal train was not damaged, and
neither engine crew sustained as much
as scratch.
John Miller, engineer Of the coal
train, says there was no flag out and
that he heard no torpedoes. He could
have stopped in time to avert a COL
lision, he says. had it not been that
the engineer on the pusher at the rear
of his train failed to hear his whistle
for down brakes.

Irish-American Wants to Fiaht in De.
= Tense of Captain Dreyfus.
Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 12.-Captain
and criek pistol shot, has issued q
challenge to Count Esterhazy to fight
him a duel in defense Of Captain AL
fred Dreyfus. Captain Phelan has en-
gagged in several personal encounters.
and he is said to be backed by several
local Jews, who have guaranteed his
passage to England to meet Esterhazy
He is a veteran of the civil war. In
his letter to Esterhazy he says:
believing you to be the instigator
and arch conspirator responsible for all
the miseries and fluctuations Of Cap
tain Dreyfus, and because he (Dreyfus)
is not unable to follow you and de-
mand satisfaction for the miseries you
have heaped upon him, |, as an Irish
American, who does not belong to his
race or creed, and believing that a man
should not he punished on account of
his religion, do volunteer to take his
place in the field of honor at any time
or place you may designate, the place
of meeting to be on neutral grounds"
The challenge was mailed to Count
EsterhaZy yesterday.
Phelan is the man who exposed the
plot to blow up the British steamer
Queen with dynamite. ODonovan Ros-
sa accused him of being traitor to
Ireland and subsequently, in January,
1885, Phelan went to the Office of Ros
sa, in New York and there he was as
saulted and stabbed in many places,
and his subsequent recovery was
thought to be almost miracle.

Chattanooga. Sept. 1.-THE iron sit
uation throughout the south is very
excited because Of the unprecedented
demand. Many furnaces In the Ten
nessee and Alabama districts are sold
so far ahead that it is impossible for
foundrymen and smaller consumers to
obtain iron from them at any figure.
Most of the furnaces have orders suf-
ficient to consume their full produc-
ton far into next year. Iron in the
Chattanooga and Birmingham districts
is selling as high as SIS and 1880 per
ton, and it is freely predicted that 500
