The north-bound train on the Baltimore and
| Lahigh Railway which left the city at 30 T.
NJ. on Saturday met with serious accident AT
| point between Laurel Brook and Baldwin,
about two hundred yards south of the Over
| shot trestle, the entire train was derailed.
The cause of the accident is attributed to the
front truck Of the baggage car leaving the
track, causing the front end of the car to
swing from the track and drag with 1t the entire
train which fell over upon its side and lodged
upon the ground, singularly enough without
uncoupling any of the coaches. There were
number of passengers cupboard and fortu-
nately they escaped with their lives, and with
out serious injury. Mr.. harry Cover who
was in charge of the engine, which was
moving at a very moderate speed, received
the concentrations of the passengers for the
GOODNESS and nerve which he displayed under
the trying circumstances, remaining on the
engine until it left the track and being hurled
from 1t and painfully injured His face was
badly cut aud it was thought that he would
lose the sight OF one eye. lie was taken
to the residence Of Mr.. William H.Streett, near
by, and DIR. William 8. Archer summoned.
Miss Margaret Keen was among the
passenger and was badly shaken up. Mics
Jessie Reckord was painfully bruised but will
soon recover. Mrs. Mary W. Mock received
severe bruise upon her hand and DIR. Charles
A. Hollingsworth was thrown violently
against window OF the car but escaped
serious injury.
A wrecking train was dispatched to the |
scene of the accident and cleared the way for |
the owl train. A large number of persons
visited the scene on Sunday.

| ~ calls to mind the celebration of the seven
| tieth university of Carl Schurz's birth, which
was celebrated last week. The great hall al
Delmonico's was decorated with German and
American flags flowers and emblems, and the
guests included many of our most representa-
tive men. Grover Cleveland was expected to
he present, but being prevented sent a charac-
teristc letter, which, in expressing regret, also
rendered cordial tribute to the veteran
soldier, statesman and reformer. Carl Schurz
and Wagner were made political exiles from
Germany AT the same time and in his response
ut the banquet Mr.. SchurZ referred most
elequently and feelingly to his arrival in New
Yorkin 1852. He spoke, too, of his firm belief
in the principles underlying our political in
situations and his sincere personal love for our
country and countrymen. The dinner was
really Il notable one in financial, political and
social circles.
Speaking of birthdays, the l21st anniversary
of Robert Emmet's birth has been made the
occasion for such generous and pronounced
celebration as only his countrymen know how
to give. The Irish population of this city is
very large and comprises many influential
people. The Clan-na-Gael took possession of
the Academy of Music, and the crowd was so
great that wien the military procession arrived
they were unable to get into the big opera
house. There were similar demonstration all
over the city. The proceeds of several enter
tainments on the occasion were devoted to de-
frayirg the expenses of DIR. Gallagher, who
has since bis arrival here, after thirteen years
spent in English prison, beeG an inmate of an
asylum.
The affairs of the projected Pan-American
Exposition, to be held in Buffalo in 1901, are
much under discussion now in New York.
The interests of the scheme have been some
what ret arded lately ut both Albany and WASH
lgton. But those interested are now quite
hopeful OF securing the necessary appropria-
lions, and practical arrangements are already
being made here by prospective exhibitors,
and also, alas by shrewd spectators.
